是否可以使用XHTML，CSS和JavaScript编写跨平台的桌面应用程序？

Question

Is it possible writing a cross-platform desktop application with XHTML (or HTML), CSS and JavaScript?

If the answer is yes, how to run this application? Should I run it with a browser like Firefox?

Note : Currently Windows supports HTML Application .

Answer 1

HTA is really Old technology.

Try tools like Titanium (Appcelerator). They are tools, which render HTML content inside an APP. So, from outside, you will be running an executable but inside , it is loading a HTML file.

Same principle is being used in many apps now a days. Facebook for android is a best example

Answer 2

似乎您正在寻找的是Open Web Apps

Answer 3

如果客户端JavaScript和/或HTML / CSS黑客完成了您希望完成的任务，那么可以，并且确实需要使用诸如Firefox之类的用户代理。

Answer 4

Yes. With HTML5.

The other answer's solutions are great, but generally they assume that the user is connected to the internet to have a server-side that handles the data.

But it's possible to use Open Web Apps (as ZER0 suggested) with HTML5, which has a lot of support for offline web apps .

Pay attention to it, though. Even HTML5 assumes that eventually the user will have some sort of internet connection, and offline functionalities are seen as a "cache". So, I'm not sure that this solution is enough for every requirement, because I don't know how much space HTML5 provides to offline applications
