Developers Developers should see this C# example for further information about how to access the ISiteKiosk Interface from other programming languages. Remarks The SiteKiosk objects and ActiveX controls are available in the form scripts that can be used in combination with SiteKiosk. They make it possible to control certain SiteKiosk features and to individualize the SiteKiosk application. Before you can use the SiteKiosk objects in a script you need to call the function window.external.InitScriptInterface() to initialize the script interface. If you like to use the SiteKiosk Object Model within FRAMES then you have to use window.external.InitScriptInterface(document) instead of window.external.InitScriptInterface(). Note that the path of a file using SiteKiosk objects must be allowed in the SiteKiosk configuration (Access/Security -> URL's With Script Permission) if it is not a browser skin file. Applies to SiteKiosk v5.0 (and later versions). Back to top
