Hello

i wanna start my internet browser directly from the main Menu(without clicking 10 times trough a launcher...). How can i manage that? i already tried the executescript function with onclick:

PHP Code:

...
<onclick>xbmc.excecutescript('/home/testuser/apps/ov_webbrowser/xbmc/start_webbrowser.sh')</onclick>
... 


but it won't work!

when i put this line (without the onclick) into the autoexec.py it starts.

someone got the idea to get this working?

thanks for reading
greets

typo. executescript != excecutescript

[Nuka1195]

XBMC.RunScript()

[spiff]

lol even worse typo thanks for pointing that out

[Bytefire]

ok, lol typo only in the post
i didn't wrote "eXCEcutescript" in my sourcecode

well i now tried:

PHP Code:

...
<onclick>XBMC.RunScript('/home/testuser/apps/ov_webbrowser/xbmc/start_webbrowser.sh')</onclick>
... 


but it didnt work either


if i start the .sh file from my gnome terminal it works, so the file is executable and ok.

Ehm,

a little bit off topic maybe, but regarding your browser starting.

When you start browser, do you actually close xbmc and start fluxbox session or browser is opened on top of the xbmc?

I'm using xbmc live and if I open browser directly from xbmc it will not allow me to do anything, it just stays on top but all keys are moving in xbmc.

Am I missing something, or this is normal behavior.

Thx and good luck with the script

Since that browser.chromium seems to be a proper addon, you should be able to run it by just using its id and not the full path to the default.py.
You also do not really need the XBMC-prefix so that would make for:

python:
RunScript(browser.chromium)

For using the ID you are also able to use: RunAddon(ID)
