What is a toolbar?

A toolbar is a window whose buttons represent menu items, actions or tools.

A toolbar can be located along the top, bottom or sides of a frame window or can float and be positioned anywhere on your desktop.

A toolbar is a set of buttons (usually with an icon of some sort) that can be used to activate a programs function.

You can have multiple toolbars with a variety of different toolbar buttons using text, bitmaps or both.

Wikipedia Internet Explorer definition

Internet Explorer toolbar development is the cornerstone of our service–related architecture. Our experience in developing Internet Explorer toolbars dates back to the release of Internet Explorer 4.0, and we boast experience in developing Windows applications that dates back to the release of Windows 3.0 (Charles Petzold era).

How can we help you?

Part of our talent that keeps customers coming back is our ability to listen to your thoughts and development needs and then to be able to implement them into an IE toolbar. With a simple requirements (specifications) document , we can architect your product and develop and create your toolbar. While you may think that this is a long process, it can actually be done fairly painlessly and within a reasonable timeframe and budget .

What can we develop for you?

We have developed some of the most complex toolbars for some of the key players on the web today. We have designed toolbars that dynamically format themselves at runtime based on the site the user is visiting, as well as modest one button toolbars.

We can design custom controls that are implemented within a toolbar, elaborate dropdown menus, scrolling windows, animated buttons, search text boxes, radio controls and many more types of controls.

Please see our toolbar picture page to get an idea of some of the toolbars that we have developed or download our GSD Free IE Toolbar (for Windows 2000 and above).

Yes we specialize in custom IE toolbar development but we also specialize in all the areas of Windows and IE type development and are quite intimate with Internet Explorer without doubt. One of the featured items which we do that we have observed very few other can is provide masterful dynamic toolbars, custom toolbars. These dynamic toolbars are usually formatted based upon a server side stimulus, where it may be a remote XML file, a script, a document or whatever the content is. We provide a mechanism to cause the look and feel of an IE toolbar to change, dramatically and very dynamically. We have done several of these dynamic toolbars for different scenarios and for different companies inclusive of the DOD.

Not one of our toolbars behaves or looks the same; we tailor your toolbar to your environment, custom toolbar development!

On the subject of BHO’s: now we’ve developed BHO’s for a wide variety of applications and a wide variety of industries. BHO’s are very popular and perform minuscule tasks up to very involved and complete server intensive tasks. That said there is not too much we haven’t done, seen and/or developed or even heard as far as Browser Helper Objects are concerned.

We’ve also done a large scope of DeskBand Objects. We even specialize development for the desktop and have done several Windows Explorer plug-ins, add-ons as well. We try to work closely with all of our clients. Some clients have even come to us with just and idea which we have then discussed and assisted them in putting together an elaborate requirements document for that idea.

So you see there is literally nothing we cannot design and practically nothing we have not done to this point in this environment. So here again feel free to give us a call or drop us an email to see just how we can be of service to you! After we’ve gotten all our questions answered on the look and feel of what you’re looking to do – we then put together a fixed cost proposal for you with timeline/pricing/and project details and can, depending on volume usually begin your project within the frame of about a week from the time of your decision.
