Changing branded bookmarks in Internet tab

Is it possible to change the bookmarks in the Internet tab?
I have branded ones as the first 4, with a branded larger logo at the top, and I really have no use for all but one of them. The ones I want to replace don't even work, as they connect via a proxy I'm not using.
Can I replace them?

tap and hold and select delete on the ones you don't want

hi,
i had the same problem with my t-mobile mda and here is the answer of your problem! patrickw_mdav explained the hole thing.
my internet tab looks now like this:
cu

I just tried to find the folder referenced to in that post and can't find it on my Diamond.

While browsing on the device, I see two files called "InternetPortal" that are XML that will open within Opera.
How can I back them up and edit them? I can't see them when browsing the device on my laptop.
*EDIT*
Nevermind, I'm logged into to a different OS than usual on my laptop, and didn't have system files viewable.

How have you managed to customize it like that? At the moment I'm only able to get it to remove the banner (which it replaces with I'm assuming a default "launch browser" image) and it the one link I want remains.
My XML looks like this
HTML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<InternetPortal>
<IncludeUserFavorites>True</IncludeUserFavorites>
<!--<Banner
DefaultImagePath="\Windows\_Telstra_banner.qtc"
SelectedImagePath="\Windows\_Telstra_bannerH.qtc"
Text="BigPond"

<Link
Text="YouTube"
Executable="\Windows\YouTube.exe"
ImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\InternetPortal\youtube.qtc" />
</OperatorLinks>
</InternetPortal>
You see I've commented out everything but the YouTube link, and added a custom Google image and link. Is it that it doesn't support JPG? I've got no info on qtc files, otherwise I'd use one of them to keep the convention.
Cheers.

my .xml looks like this and i´ve used .jpg and png (both works):
HTML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<InternetPortal>
<BrowserExe>\Windows\BrandedBrowser.exe</BrowserExe>
<IncludeUserFavorites>True</IncludeUserFavorites>
<Banner

i only changed the banner to my asked adress and picture!
my .xml is called "InternetPortal-de-de.xml" an the path is \Application Data\Manila
i´m just searching for a nice picture for my devs shortcut

Hmm.
The syntax in both our XML is fine. The only difference is the <browser> tag, which my original XML files didn't have, so I didn't think to include.
Do you happen to know the properties of your jpg? 48x48 is the standard dimension, I'm using 96DPI, but that shouldn't make too much difference.
Do you know when the XML is loaded? Is it on startup, or when the tab is accessed?

i don´t have any idea about .xml. i only displaced the things i thought it schould work
the xml is loaded when the tab is accessed. i didn´t have to restart.
my picture is 41x48 pixel and 24bit true color.

Ok, it really doesnt seem to like Dreamweaver, so I'm doing my editing in notepad.
So I've figured that if I have a corrupt or no XML file in Manila, it reverts back to a defaul "Launch Browser" banner, with a pretty cool image of a globe. For some reason the YouTube app is also in there, so that must be pulled in from elsewhere.
If I have the correct XML, it removes the banner and uses the settings from the XML, which has no banner set. So can anyone tell me the default banner properties? I really want that "Launch Browser" banner, with my own custom links.

can you just use my xml? maybe this works and you just have to edit the path to the pictures!? i use notepad too.

No your XML has that iGoogle banner you created. I want the default one, but because it's pulling from custom XML, and no banner is specified in that, it isn't producing one.
If I remove my XML, it goes back to default, so I need to know what the default settings are (image location/name/dimensions, executable target) and then plug them into my custom XML.
But the earlier problem I was having was because I was using Dreamweaver. I'm not entirely sure why, but switching to notepad opened the thing up for me and everything works as it should, just without a banner.
If I get no info from anyone, I might post back in a new topic about it.

Created a png icon with size 96x96px and put it in windows folder.

Is there anyway to have the Internet Tab use another browser than Opera 9.5, like Opera Mini?

if you try to search should be an appz in development&hacking able to change messaging, clock and broser invoked by manila... I remember that but I lost it in the forum please post a link when you find it, keep searching

I can add bookmarks by changing the manila file, but they all opens up in IE not opera.

You can try to use xperia tweaks program to set opera as the default browser

Tried that version, and the bookmarks do show in TF3D. However, the physical keypad does not work perfectly (at times). One issue is that after a few seconds, the onscreen keypad closes and also stops you from using the physical pad.

To get the bookmarks in the internet tab, quickfix
the easiest way to add bookmark in the internet tab is to manually create a dir in windows called opera9 (windows\opera9)
then copy this file from root: application data\opera9\opera6.adr to the new dir in windows. (windows\opera9)
then they will show up.
this is just a quick fix, new bookmarks will not show up..

I use the TAEL rom from Oct 22nd (Windows Mobile 6.5, TF3d 2.1.38680). As you can see on my screenshot, my bookmarks are also empty. I didn't try the option to copy the file from appdata to windows because I think that there must be a config parameter to adjust the path of the bookmarks... Anyone an idea?
Thanks!

Another Internet tab editing question.

I have read a lot of posts regarding editing the internet tab and I have successfully added 3 program links to my internet tabe which work well but I have 2 additional questions.
First: Aside from the YouTube app, my other 2 apps won't display the icons properly, I have searched and can't find separate icon graphics for those programs, so I am assuming that their icons are compiled into the .exe's. My question is how to refer to the icons in the .exe in the XML file so that the icons display properly
Second: Has anyone tried changing the XML to add a websearch link so that I can type in a search parameter on the internet tab and hit "Search" and it opens opera with that query?
Mostly I'm looking for an answer to the first question but the second one would be nice to solve as well.
Thanks.

When you setup the programs in your 27c65cbd_manila file you need to put a link to the what icon you want to use. here is what mine looks like.
<OperatorLinks>
<Link
Text="Internet Explorer"
Executable="\windows\iexplorer.exe"

</OperatorLinks>
I have made and added the IE7.png and the skyfire.png to the windows dir

Um I need to access the icons
My question wasn't how to set the XML coding it was more on how to access the icons within the .exe. What I understand from your post is that you created your icons, I can do that too but I was wondering if it was possible to use a switch statement (or something) to read the icon file within the .exe. I don't really want to go and create my own icons when I don't have to

TF3D Internet favorites problem

Hallo people.
I want to use internet bookmarks(Internet Tab of TF3D) with UCWeb.
I have searched the forums,and everywhere is described,that these bookmarks are stored in "27c65cbd_manila" file.
Unfortunately,I hate Opera and I have it uninstalled from NATF's ROM and now I have different contents on the screen and the file(compare screenshot and the content of manilafile).
UCWeb is working pretty well for these bookmarks,but I want to modify them.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<InternetPortal>
<IncludeUserFavorites>True</IncludeUserFavorites>
<Banner
DefaultImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\InternetPortal\banner.qtc"
SelectedImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\InternetPortal\banner_selected.qtc"
Width="480"
Height="215" />
<OperatorLinks>
<Link
Text="YouTube"
Executable="\windows\youtube.exe"
ImagePath="\Windows\HTC\Assets\Images\InternetPortal\youtube.qtc" />
</OperatorLinks>
</InternetPortal>
This means,so this file is no longer a bookmarks file.
How to solve that?
Thanks.

HTML Forms question

I'm trying to put together a small HTML page that links to several reports I look at frequently so I'm trying to do something like this
USER ID [____________] [SUBMIT]
and whatever is entered will be tacked on to the end of a URL that is launched.
So something like this
http://blah/report=(whatever they typed in)
I've done a bit of googling but can't seem to find a way to do it.

Try this one
HTML:
<html>
<body>
<form action="http://forum.xda-developers.com/" method="get">
USER ID: <input type="text" name="report" /><input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
For USER ID: 123456
It will go to "http://forum.xda-developers.com/?report=123456
