Webview, icons, PROBLEMS... (this IS HTML/coding related)


Question

What is currently happening:

I am using this tag "object classid="clsid:844F4806-E8A8-11d2-9652-00C04FC30871"" for the icons.

The problem with this tag:

It only displays the icon for the folder I am in. So if I am in C:, it will show the icon for the C: drive. If I'm in control panel, it displays the icon for control panel, etc, etc.

What I want to do:

Notice the screenshot below.

Notice the icons next to the items in Other Places.

I want those icons to represent what they are pointing to (like in XP's webview thing).

If you can help me, by doing any of the following, I would be very grateful:

*Sending me the files that contain the code for XP's webview. (Should be dll's, not exactly sure though since the files are no longer contained in the WEB folder. No, it is not the shellstyle.dll file.)

*Giving me the code to make this work. (No, it doesn't work if I put the CLSID's in for different folders, tried that.)

I could be wrong, but I don't think XP is using HTML for the webview. Instead, for performance reasons, they are using some internal format (probably related to HTML). So I doubt you'll find the source anywhere.

Yeah, I figured that one out just last night. I think it's a combination of XML and something else.

I installed XP on my second HD just to rip the stuff myself and couldn't find much. It's hard coded into files. Sucks...

So now I'm off relearning Javascript and DHTML...
