Custom window themes using HTML 5

[GoogleCodeExporter]

This project is great! But IE is obviously too inferior for a project such as
this. I'll wait for the chrome version instead.

Anyway, here are my suggestions:
Frameless Browser option
Minimize/Maximize using Javascript

Why these suggestions?
Because the main reason I want to create applications using php and html5 is
because you can go crazy about creating the GUI. There's no limit to what you
can do with canvas!

Sadly the GUI frame will break the whole idea up. And emulating the
minimize/maximize button by using javascript or a function that can be called
using html wold be a great feature :D

Will add more suggestions soon as I think of them. Hope to see the chrome
release and more power :)

Regards,
Nile

Minimizing and maximizing is not enough to implement custom styled windows. It
would also be needed to allow for dragging and resizing the window. These API
functions would need to be exposed to javascript:

MinimizeWindow()
MaximizeWindow()
CloseWindow()
MoveWindow()
ResizeWindow()

Related issue #31 ("Expose useful Windows API functions to Javascript").

Create an example with custom window theme.

See the css properties like "-webkit-app-region" (with drag/no-drag values) and
"-webkit-user-select" used in Frameless window in Node-Webkit:

Hello Czarek.
Just came up to this project and I absolutely love it.
I just want to ask you if you have any plans on implementing frameless windows (popups) in the near future.

@amargravity No plans currently for this feature. Fundings for new features are possible if people are interested: https://github.com/cztomczak/phpdesktop#fundings-for-new-features
