Displaying information on a webpage

Me again (mad dash as everyone runs from their computer)

My next project is a hotkey helper. Currently I'm creating html pages in dreamweaver, and calling them into my gui using this:

_IEErrorHandlerRegister ()

    $oIE = _IECreateEmbedded ()
    $hGUI = GUICreate("Hotkeys", 640, 580, _
            (@DesktopWidth - 640) / 2, (@DesktopHeight - 580) / 2, _
            $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS + $WS_CLIPCHILDREN)
    $GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj($oIE, 10, 40, 600, 360)
    $GUI_Button_Back = GUICtrlCreateButton("Back", 10, 420, 100, 30)


    GUISetState()       ;Show GUI
    WinSetOnTop($hGUI, "", 1)

    $oIE.navigate(@ScriptDir & "\Firefox.html")
    WinSetOnTop($hGUI, "", 0)

This works fine, but makes it hard for me to add extra hotkeys, or more importantly the user adding their own hotkeys.

I think a better way of doing it would be to have the hotkeys in a csv file, and then have my gui display this information on screen in a table.

Can AutoIT create a html table from a csv file automatically or is there a better way of doing it?

If it can, what functions in the help file should I be looking at?

Many Thanks

hi again ,

To create a HTML table from a csv you can use FileWrite(),StringSplit()/StringRegExp().

However, you may want to checkout list views(a kind of tabular control) in the help file.

Perhaps you can experiment with storing your hot-key info in an Ini file with the Ini*() functions so it will be easier to retrieve later.

So lots of reading up in the help file for you

Good luck,
