Welcome to Tango Interactive Shared DHTML Browser


Tango Interactive Shared DHTML Browser is an application used to share complex Web contents.

Shared DHTML Browser supports such advanced functionality as scrollbar sharing; complex DHTML sharing (e.g., synchronized display/hiding of layers), object dragging and similar gimmicks; advanced form sharing (e.g., shared type-in fields: you type, I see and correct, shared select lists etc. etc.), and a telepointer.

Shared DHTML Browser has been designed to share known contents. This means, it should be primarily used to present courseware, worknbenches, or used in application training. The browser is less reliable than the universal browser when used with arbitrary Web contents with possibly complex nested frames, active contents such as applets and plugins, or complex scripted pages. For this type of contents, our universal shared browsers is preferable. The technologies used to implement both browsers are completely different.

Shared DHTML Browser is a powerful tool with many more advanced features. Please, consult the help file for a full description.

A lot of the Shared DHTML Browser code is implemented in Javascript. If you use the browsers source viewer to see the code, or when you save the code to local disk, please, observe the Copyright notice therein!
