I need to add channels. I plan on making small HTML pages on aolemu.com to emulate them. They seem to be VERY small in height/width.

Some of the art assets are stored in the official aol db main (main.idx) file. I believe the finance section and kids section I've seen in there. http://www.koin.org/files/aol.aim/aol/dbview/

DB entries start at 1-1-28854 ends at 1-1-28933

Make channel buttons work. e.g. I click "Kids Only" and I see this: KO Thx LGR! AOL Local: LOCAL Found Another! ENT Last one! PF but wait there's more! Screenshot_21

I created a wiki page on how to create a channel: https://github.com/erfg12/AOL_4.0_Emu/wiki/Making-a-Channel

I also added code to open the pages from the channels drop down menu and channels page in the latest commit: 9cc96ec1351300d39d468474d0cfa408d575652e

Okay! Is the compiled commit on "nightly"?

erfg12 commented 4 years ago

Every new commit is automatically compiled in nightly release.

Kronos197-tech commented 4 years ago

Also, can you add the sub-windows to Kids Only and add the other channels?

erfg12 commented 4 years ago

You're welcome to assist with the project as well. I gave instructions in the Wiki how to make a channel.

I have to empty space on my PC.

This YouTube video has everything that worked on AOL 4 before it was unsupported. It has all channel pages, including subpages. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pR2a6lJyRo

See? Now you can continue it further!

Last I checked, this is an open source project. Anyone can add or fix things.

Kronos197-tech commented 4 years ago

I ran into a problem while making the image in a page. It displayed as a blank photo with a caption.

Kronos197-tech commented 4 years ago

This shows the code in a document and the specified image. Screenshot_56

It's adding a space when an image is used.

erfg12 commented 4 years ago

You have to remove the border around the window. Including the min/max/close/title bar at the top. Also that text area needs to be re-created in HTML. Basically just make an HTML page with that background color, a text area and re-create the text inside of it.
