I want WPI to use the native tabs and buttons from the users visual style:
http://img32.picoodle.com/img/img32/3/8/1/...t8m_f1879b8.pngWPI only lets you select from a number of custom buttons and tabs.

The tabs are not the "native" tabs; html/hta doesn't access them like C/VB does. But I will make a "native" looking one.
For the buttons, I will have to make them an image, also. It's either or: plain or images. Can't do both simply.
But I do agree with you 100%: I want more of a "plain" set for my Corp_WindowsXP theme.
They will get added...............

It would be nice when i enter the letter A on my keyboard, it goes to the first app starting with an A
Just like when you browse a folder.
Now you have to scroll lots of times and look for the app (some have big lists)

I have a new grid navigation pane sitting in the wings here. It is sortable by install order, category, or name. Key shorts cuts could be a possibility...................

@anonynous_user: "native" buttons and tabs have been added to the archive. Re-download.
They are not "native", but images that are pretty close.

I'm just getting started with WPI, so forgive me if I'm asking for something that already exists....
What I want to be able to do is specify a config file/option file on a local web server that WPI can download and use. That way all the config info will be in one central place and I don't have to update CDs/DVDs. I suppose the other option is doing this from a shared drive, but since WPI is an HTML app anyway I think I'd rather go with a web server.
I'm also interested in having WPI download all the apps selected for installation from a web server too. That way I can have the config files and the apps in one place. Of course I'm assuming each app is a single self-extracting executable (I don't really intend to do things like Office this way, just utility apps, mostly free/open source/frequently updated stuff).
Does this make sense? Can WPI already do it?
Thanks!

Assuming you are in a server - client machine setting you can set WPI up on the server and once the drive is mapped on the client you can, then run WPI and have it "Remotely" run the installation packages.
There are several people here that run WPI this way and a simple search for say "Network" in this forum section should yeild the results on running it from a networking situation. Unless I am understanduing you TOTALLY wrong then slap me, call me Sally and we will try it again...
As for remotely downloading the apps it CAN be done with an app like, uuuuuuuuuummmm WGET I think the name is.
So command one would be for wget to retrieve the app from your server and place it in the install dir or wherever then command two would run the app. NOW this way would take quite a bit of work but I sure you could do it that way.
WGETS' Home page =

Option to sort config.js file entries by uid, like the existent one that will alphabetize it. Also grid left panel with shortcut keys sounds great.

How about a button on the installation screen (after you click Begin Install) that will either re-open WPI after finishing (for those of us with DOH! moments who forget to check something) or halt the installation process and re-open the menu with the remaining programs checked, allowing you to add to or modify your selection? Sounds difficult to code but it would be pretty sweet.

Please enable full qualified-pathnames for Images by default.
program.js
CODE
...
//check if an absolute path was set
// if (desc[i+1].match(/img src=".*\\.*"/g) != null)
// {
// //remove ./Graphics/
// desc[i+1]=desc[i+1].replace(/src=".\/Graphics\//gi, 'src="');
// //replace variables (e.g. %ROOT%)
// desc[i+1]=ReplacePath(desc[i+1].replace(/src="([^"]*)"/gi, 'src="$1"'));
// //get path to image
// path_to_image = desc[i+1].replace(/.*src="([^"]*)".*/i, "$1");
// //replace every "\" with "/"
// path_to_image = path_to_image.replace(/\\/g, '/');
// //build new description
// desc[i+1]=desc[i+1].replace(/src="[^"]*"/gi, 'src="file://' + path_to_image + '"');
// }
...
So I don't need to patch each new version by myself. :-)

Some Ideas:
And two new Buttons "First" and "Last" to go quickly to the first or last page.
Maybe a combo (or another way) to go quickly to a category would be enough
A hint selected/app_count on each category would also be very nice.
The same hint should be displayed during install (current_app/apps_to_install) maybe instead of the percentage.
Also the time (the difference from "start install" to now) would be interessting.
--> instead of 10% the progress should be displayed like 5/50 5:28min
Haven't tried it yet but is it possible to scroll up during install to the first entry?
--> e.g. to check if all apps were installed correctly during install. Maybe also a scroll-lock would be needed.

Things are really moving along! v7 is still bigger & better!
Now that the wmi calls to determine OS type, version, etc can be used to determine different files for different conditions, i notice that there is now a need to have multiple conditions statements & greyed conditions;
Right now i believe you have the 1 conditional statement and 1 greyed condition that resolves to a true/false and displays the line accordingly. It would also be necessary to have a conditional priority where condition1 is applied first condition2, etc.
it might be good to have a dropdown box with some choices based on the conditions, such as choice1=Hide installer, choice2=Display in colour1, choice3 Diplay in colour2
Also i wanted to know can you perform operations sunch as AND LIKE OR operators like in wmi? for the conditional statements, ie [getOSver=="xp" AND getOSlang=='"ENU"] to get an english XP system?
Update - i just tried some basic operators (AND, OR) in the greyed out condition box and i just got errors, i'm not very good with wmi calls but i know that you can do logical operator calls such as the example above. Do you think its possible to build that into the next release where you can do a greyout or conditional statement based on 1 or more conditions?
Also in the changelog you mention that the function isInstalled doesn't work on 2003, is that just because wmi is turned off by default? if it was turned on would it work?
thanks again for all the work
Still fooling around with it; maybe some more ideas
The isInstalled functions is very nice to determine the software installed, but it does have a few drawbacks
1) - its slow - maybe consider using a scan button, if someone wants to test if software is installed then they can leave it auto-on/off or manual scan, that way it wont slow it down unnecessarily
2) - i think its picking up the Caption title which is the one that appears in the Add/Remove list however it doesn't always give the version, i forget if or what the handle is but i think there is one that gives the exact version because something like Adobe Flash appears in the add/remove as adobe flash activex - no version #. this might be problematic since it seems you might need some way of doing an iteration, i'm not sure
There is scriptomatic from microsoft and an autoit version that is really good for looking at the wmi handles available
-also for wmi - i got burned on this recently to find that some handles are not available on all versions of windows, some like caption are universal but i was using one on vista that i tried on XP and it wasn't available. so just a caution

Thanks, TwoJ.
I will try to write some examples for the manual on conditions. Very few people read it, but.........
FileExists() - Does file exist? yes/no
!FileExists() - Does the file NOT exist?
getOSlang()=="ENU" && getOSVer() != "Vista - lang is english and OS not Vista
getOSlang()=="ENU" || getOSVer() != "Vista - lang is english or OS not Vista
(getOSlang()=="ENU" && getOSVer() != "Vista) || getFreeRAM()>512 - lang is english and OS not Vista, or more than 512MB free RAM
That will get you started. Find more online search.

A friend of mine helped me improve my WPI (v6.5) by adding the following: I'd love to see these features included in the source of future releases. Code follows below.
1. Added GetFirewallProduct() and GetAntivirusProduct() methods. (registry_dos.js)
2. Fixed the code for getting the optical drive letter in defaultWPI(). Now defaults to using WMI, and reverts to the old way if WMI is not present. (core.js)
3. Modified getOSver() to use WMI, and to cache the result since this function is called VERY often. (registry_dos.js, globals.js)
4. Cached the result of getSPver() as well. (registry_dos.js, rev 19; globals.js)
5. Added WMI constants to globals.js. (globals.js)
6. Added GetFirewallProduct() and GetAntivirusProduct() methods to condition dropdown boxes. (configwizardtemplate_config.htm)

Sep 12 2008, 08:41 PM
Here are some ideas that i think might expand some of wpi functionality
1) have some sort of export/import function, a lot of the applications i put on wpi are freeware stuff, that i think might be good if there was a central repository that people could just download the latest vesions and import into wpi. also if they could include conditions such as for x86 or x64 versions, etc. It doesn't seem very efficient that everyone has to create their own versions when a lot could benefit from one or 2 versions.
2) as i mentioned in another post, i think the conditions need to be beefed up so that their are multiple conditions, such as if condition A then highlight in x colour, if condition B highlight in y colour. this would be good for cases where we are having x86/x64 systems as well as xp/vista, so that for a program like 7zip we could say if x64 and vista then install 7zipx64vista.exe, else x64&XP install 7zipx64XP.exe, etc
3) i like to use wpi for updating software so i know there has been a lot of work done in v7 to start using wpi, but if there was a way to determine the version of applications that are on wpi with the presently installed versions installed on the system and to highlight or select only the updates needed to install in order to bring the software up to date. there are 2 programs that i know, filehippo update checker, and software informer that can scan the software installed and let you know if there are updated versions, but i would like wpi to also install said updates
4) For the logest time i have struggled with getting programs to install the way i want, i know there are the switches to do silent installs, but a lot of times they are installing extra crap (toolbars, shorcuts, settings, etc) that i don't want. What i was thinking was something like an autoit script to launch the install and then read from a settings.ini file for each program to fill in all the possible choices of the normal attended installation, and then any post -install choices such as add/delete icons, shortcuts, etc. This means that all programs would need a settings.ini to match the installers but it would insure that the programs are really getting installed the way you want instead of trying to repack the files yourself, hope that someone else's silent installer does want you want, or do some sort of customized post-install cleanup.
Some ideas for your consideration
thanks

TwoJ,
#1) That has been asked for several times. It really come down to who is going to maintain this HUGE databsse of programs? Not me or Kels. Maybe if people would make a donation to keep me happily programming away it might get some consideration. It all comes down to the forum users: ask for anything to be added and I will look into it, but don't expect the impossible from me. If you have server space and some time, talk to me and I will help you get started. I don't get paid for this, that's up to you guys, I have a full time job and a life outside of WPI. I got burned out once and took almost a year off. I am trying to pace myself better this time.
#2) I understand what you are asking for now. For now, no, that will not happen. If you have 2 versions of the same program for x86 and x64, then put a Deps check in for each entry with a getmshtaBits()==64 or getBits()==64 check. Dont use Grey Condition, just the regular so it will be hidden.
#3) The problem with checking for installed programs' version could be tweaked to not just look at the caption...if it has such details. I agree it would be more reliable. The next problem is you can't do a getFileVersion() on an installer and expect to get an accurate reading. I tried. FileHippo has a PAID staff maintaining that database.
#4) Same answer as above: there are only 24 hours in a day........
If you, or anyone else, wants to starts an online database I will be more than happy to write the code to support it. I love the idea, I just don't have the time to maintain it. It will have to be a long-term commitment; you can't drop out without a replacement after 2 months. All or nothing.

Hi.
I would like to request some improvements in error reporting wherever there is a try{}catch(ex){}.
For example, in WPI_v7.1.1, installer_reboot.js, line 28:
alert(getText(NotOpenRebootFile)+"\n"+rebootFile);
would be better if it would report the exception details as follows:
alert(getText(NotOpenRebootFile)+"\n"+rebootFile + "\nError Number: " + ex.number + "\nError Description: " + ex.description);
Thank you.

Hi Kel & mritter
Thanks for the repies, and i completly understand, me too, i've got the day job and the wife and other responcibilities which come first before spending time on this. Sometimes i find there are people with more talent and skills than i (which there seems lots of :-) ) and sometimes they seem to lacking ideas or direction for their projects. I on the otherhand seem to have ideas or projects that lack time and/or skills.
At this point there seems a few projects that are in need of development and i understand completly the amount of time some of them would take to create and maintain.
What i was thinking of was a software database that would hold the most recent versions of software, include whether the software works in x86 & x64 mode, whether there exists a X64 version, whether it is freeware/trialware/etc. If anyone knows if something already exist it would be much apprciated to be pointed to that.
