Abstract:
This project report provides an insight into design and development of Customized Web Browser with Web Page Archiving for Offline Browsing. There is need to developed such a product because currently available offline browsers does not provide basic functionalities like portability of offline available web pages and the deletion functionality and also there is less control of the user on the saving of web pages. This is a customized Multi Threaded web browser with an efficient thread management system for downloading online browsed web pages on the hard disk.
Download Manager of the system is capable to download all the Flash, JavaScript, and MIME types of the web page in a proper hierarchy for offline browsing. Offline Browsing is done using IIS (Internet Information Services) as all the downloaded web pages are saved in the root directory of the local web server. Efficient archiving approach has been used for online/offline web page browsing and storage. An “Intelligent Offline Web Page Manger” is integrated into the browser, which helps in efficient, space conservative and robust saving and deletion of offline pages. Further offline archiving is provided to save offline browse web pages in different folders. It is developed in Java using J2SDK1.4.2 and NetBeans IDE 3.5.1. It is a full-fledge working software and its installation package is developed using Excelsior JET evaluation version.
