Anyone know if there is an ability to set an active wallpaper? By that i mean an interactive webpage, like windows active desktop?


ps. the prefix thing is dumb. atleast on the viewforum page, seperate the Prefix from the Title.

Normally, a wallpaper setter (scaling/cropping/etc) app such as "feh" is called on to set the wallpaper to the "root" window (background). You can use a simple switch on mplayer to direct it to use the root window (background) with "-rootwin" as an option.

But if I understand you coorectly, you want an html background, like a maximized epiphany or firefox display. Can't say I have ever heard of this being done, not to say that it cannot be done...
