LabVIEW Website Creator/Editor with HTML5, CSS3 and JS Using LabVIEW

[Larry.C]

Overview

This LabVIEW project includes an editor which allows you to edit your html, css and Javascript in real time while watching the edits in a browser screen.

Description

This application will open, read, edit and close an HTML based website defined by the website information inserted by the user. The website information is inserted bottom right and the top 3 boxes contain the HTML, CSS and Javascript respectively.

Auto refresh of the web page is possible but is very inefficient since it refreshes the page entirely in a polling fashion. You will also hear the annoying browser click as it refreshes the page.

The following is a picture of the main refresh action of the application:
