Re: "Site Specific Browser" included with DHIS2 Live?

 

I think it should probably be a blueprint and  I think it is a good idea.

It is certainly  a problem on many machines I have encounterd in the
field. We need to install FireFox, Chrome, Opera or something, and
ideally make it the default browser. This seems to be a good idea to
me, but can seem a bit drastic to some users.  Ideally, the installer
would come prepackaged with this browser. When DHI2 Live is launched,
instead of making a call to the default browser (which in most cases
in IE), assuming that this was installed as part of a special live
package, then this browser would get opened instead, thereby launching
DHIS2. I am not so sure about the DHIS2 live part, as it simply
launches the default browser. Bob?
