Using PHP as active desktop
Is this possible? I wrote a simple "Hello world" PHP script and forced it as my desktop background and I'm getting no results. I can't see this being impossible though. Has anyone tried this before?
Regards,

Maybe GTK?
Have you addressed the page as http://localhost/whatever.php?
Also, you must set it as desktop->customize->web, not as a background.
Anyway, go and repeat ten times the Lord's Prayer as an excuse for your perversion

That worked. It was more of a work project and having peoples desktop display when they have a reminder. Although that could make for some quite cool projects. A bit of AJAX showing server stats and where ever your imagination takes you from there.Mordred wrote:Have you addressed the page as http://localhost/whatever.php?
