Question

I got a little code to simulate a waiting bar that uses HTML and CSS, so I had the idea to add in a HTA to generate after dynamically with a vbscript. If any of you can give me a hand for good display scrolling text with the waiting bar. Thank you in advance !

The original code in question => VBScript script progress notification

My modified code in a HTA :

<HTML>
<HEAD>
<Title>Recherche dans le contenu des fichiers de type texte (Version modifié © Hackoo)</Title>
<HTA:APPLICATION
ICON = "magnify.exe" 
BORDER="THIN" 
INNERBORDER="NO" 
MAXIMIZEBUTTON="NO" 
MINIMIZEBUTTON="NO" 
SCROLL="NO" 
SYSMENU="NO" 
SELECTION="NO" 
SINGLEINSTANCE="YES">
<style type="text/css">
* {
  //font-size: 1px;
  margin: 1px;
}
div {
  position: absolute;
  left: 28%;
  top: 50%;
}
marquee {
  border: 1px solid;
  height: 25px;
  width: 200px;
}
marquee span {
  height: 20px;
  width: 20px;
  background: Red;
  float: left;
}
.handle-0 { filter: alpha(opacity=20); -moz-opacity: 0.20; }
.handle-1 { filter: alpha(opacity=40); -moz-opacity: 0.40; }
.handle-2 { filter: alpha(opacity=60); -moz-opacity: 0.6; }
.handle-3 { filter: alpha(opacity=80); -moz-opacity: 0.8; }
.handle-4 { filter: alpha(opacity=100); -moz-opacity: 1; }
</style>
</HEAD>
<BODY text="white"><CENTER><DIV><SPAN ID="ProgressBar"></SPAN>
<span><marquee DIRECTION="LEFT" SCROLLAMOUNT="3" BEHAVIOR=ALTERNATE><font face="Comic sans MS">Veuillez patienter.la recherche du mot <FONT COLOR='yellow'><B>"Wscript"</B></FONT> est en cours...</font></marquee></span></DIV></CENTER></BODY></HTML>
<div>
<marquee direction="right" scrollamount="8" scrolldelay="100">
  <span class="handle-0"></span>
  <span class="handle-1"></span>
  <span class="handle-2"></span>
  <span class="handle-3"></span>
  <span class="handle-4"></span>
</marquee>
</div>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript"> 
Set ws = CreateObject("wscript.Shell")
Temp = WS.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%Temp%")
Sub window_onload()
    CenterWindow 480,120
    Self.document.bgColor = "orange" 
 End Sub
 Sub CenterWindow(x,y)
    Dim iLeft,itop
    window.resizeTo x,y
    iLeft = window.screen.availWidth/2 - x/2
    itop = window.screen.availHeight/2 - y/2
    window.moveTo ileft,itop
End Sub
</script>
Was it helpful?

Solution

I solved my problem like this example in Vbscript that generate the Waiting bar in HTA :

    m_CurrentStep = m_PercentComplete
    Wscript.sleep 10
End Function

End Class

set it with these statements

Set pb = New ProgressBar
    percentComplete = 0
    pb.SetTitle("Step 1 of 4 - Do Not Close Window!")
    pb.SetText("Starting Program")
    pb.Show()
    pb.Update(percentComplete)

and then updated it as an when necessary

pb.SetTitle("Step 3 of 4 - Do Not Close Window!")
pb.SetText("Copying Files")
percentComplete = 0
pb.Update(percentComplete)

if i am incrementing through a folder, i would first get the number of files in the folder and then use a counter to increment the percentComplete value and then dynamically update the progress bar using 

percentComplete = 0
pb.Update(percentComplete)
