The Web Page Widget is used to display other web pages inside of a Presentation. The page can be shifted by setting the Horizontal Scroll and Vertical Scroll values. This functions in the same way as a scrollbar does on a regular web page, allowing the Widget to display only a specific region. The page can also be scaled to a desired amount between 50% - 200% and has the option of enabling or disabling interactivity with the web page.
The Widget refreshes the page as per the Data Refresh Interval. To prevent it from displaying a cached copy, a dummy variable is appended to the URL with every update, forcing the Web Page Widget to show the most recent version of the web page.

If you are considering contributing to this open source project, our favourite option, we have 3 good reasons why we released this code under version 3 of the GNU General Public License, and we think they are 3 good reasons for why you should get involved too:
-
Together we can make something far better than we could on our own.
-
If you want to use our code to make something that is specific to you, and that doesn’t fit with what we want to do, we don’t want to get in your way. Take our code and make just what you need.
-
We know that some of you nervous types worry about what happens if our company gets taken out in the zombie apocalypse. We get it, and neither one of us wants to deal with that delicate question of software escrow agreements for the “just in case we kick the bucket scenario”. No worries! We made it easy. No fuss, no cost, no lawyers! We published the software here. Have at it.
Are we missing something? Something could be better? Jump in, branch our code, make what you want, and send us a Pull Request. If it fits for both of us then of course we will accept it, maybe with a tweak or two, test it, and deploy it. If it doesn’t fit, no worries, just Fork our code and create your own specialized application for your specific needs. Or, if you’re just feeling paranoid, download the code, and put it under your mattress.
Either way, welcome to our project!
