Web Link Wheel


The web link wheel app lets you visit a different web link every time you touch the reader with the same tag. After the last link, the first one is used again, etc.

So the first time you touch the reader your web mail inbox might show, next your facebook page, next your intranet homepage... and so on.

The number of different links you put in there is unlimited.

Works... sometimes?

I am using this programme on a mac (not sure if this is causing the problem). Anyway I start my computer, start touchatag, plug in my reeder and the light flashes on and off quickly. I use my touchatag RFID tag and works fine. After a few mins I want to use my touchatag tags to open up more web pages, nothing works. Un-plug scanner and shut down software & computer, re-start my laptop and again works first time, try again nothing? Whats the problem? It will only work when I shut everything down and re-sart computer not just when re-start software? Any advice would be great. Thanks. Jo

Hey there,

is it possible to pass the RFID ID tot the web links, so you can identify the user of the card in every link he clicks?

This way, i can create an page with a 'profile' page, then several links to questions (all to be answered from different laptops with readers attached) and finish up with a 'report card' link...

greets,

nico

Keeping it to a single Tab / Window

If you are running Internet Explorer 8.
1) go TOOLS
2) go to INTERNET OPTIONS
3) under the TABS section select SETTINGS
4) Under the "Open Links from other Programs in: select the "The current Tab or Window" radial button
5) Click on OK

Thats it... each "new" window will open in the same tab / window and NOT generate a new tab and/or window.

Web Wheel operation

Hi Salty,

1:

you can configure your browser to open new pages in a new or in the same window. For firefox I had to download a plugin (Tab Mix Plus Options).

For Internet Explorer, if I use mine, it shows new pages in the same browser window, so I suspect it's a setting of the browser too. However, I haven't been able to find which one yet.

2: There is no timeout. You'll see the first link again only after seeing the last one.

Regards,
Jeremy.

 

timeout ?

I like this application. I have 2 questions:

1.the next link opens always in a new browser window (at least with IE). Is there a way to open the next link in the same window?

2. Is a timeout defined by when the first link is used again even if not all links have been visited before?

Thanks
salty
