Hello all

I too would like this feature. In fact I have already modified
windows.js to implement it but would prefer a 'proper' way of doing it.

What I do is pass an optional helpUrl parameter to initialize. If its
set, I put a help icon out on the menu bar, and I bind an onHelp action
to this new help icon. When you click the button it opens the url inside
a new window (actually called winhelp). If the window already exists
when the help icon is clicked, I just load the new url into the help
window. This allows me to have help tailored for each window. I am just
starting to look at the 1.5 version to add this code back in, but I'd
rather avoid my own changes if I could.

The other thing I have a requirement for a button on the title bar to
refresh the content of an existing window after its been displayed.

I also have another suggestion which relates to the status bar. Some of
the styles do no leave enough space for the text in the status bar to
display correctly, and I have to rework the styles I use on each new
release. It would be nice if the status area used different styling
depending on if there is any text to display.

Anyway, thanks for an excellent product. As someone who has spent quite
a lot of time trying to write my own cross browser window code, I
certainly appreciate the time savings of using this excellent library.

Subject: [Javawin] API to add buttons?

Hi there,

first of all: thanks for this amazing product. Really love to do my Ajax
stuff with it. ;-)

My question in case is very simple: Is there any API to add some extra
buttons to the upper right / left corner? I'd need it for an `help`
button which explains the contents of the dialog/window or calls some
other methods.

Thank you & best regards,
Sebastian
