Hi there! I'm going crazy over this problem: please help!
I need an instance of Netscape invisible to my Taskbar, running fullscreen (like MS Active Desktop) for a kiosk system based on fvwm95 and Netscape (3.0 at the moment, maybe 4.7 later). So far no prob, simple 'Style "Netscape" WindowListSkip'.....
On the displayed webpage (which is now my Desktop) I have a link to open a new Netscape to Browse the Internet ('su' to a different User for Bookmarks, prefs etc.).... the problem is, these browser-windows have to be visible to the Taskbar, first thing I tried was calling Netscape from a script (not called Netscape), giving the script different styles - OK, it didn't work, thats a shame, it would have been so easy ....
Then I tried changing the X Resources of the Netscape Window (either Class, Title, Name or simply the WindowListSkip resource), but I fear I'm not doing it right ..... (e.g. I tried calling stuff like 'netscape -xrm "Netscape*WindowListSkip: No/Yes') ....
The documentation on X resources are really poor, or can one really only change colors and fonts???
Is there any way of having taskbar-visible/invisible occurances of the same Prog (Netscape) at the same time on the same desktop (remember they are run by seperate users) ????
Another possibility is of course to use a different Window-manager, are there any that support what I want to do ????
