Description:
This project is very simple and straightforward. But it does require someone with cross-platform development skills. And perhaps some creativity.

I need software that will compile HTML files (and associated files such as images) into a single executable file (an ebook). In essence, you have a web site in an executable file. When the file is run, the home page is loaded into a browser. The browser is not a web browser, but a browser created by the software, although it can use web browser technology as its base. So the software really has two components.
1. The software itself creates an executable file (an ebook). When using the software, you specify what HTML files you want to include in the ebook and various information as to how the browser will look and function.
2. The executable file (the ebook) is the output of the software. It can be distributed and used by people who do not have the software installed. The ebook is basically a browser with a predefined set of web pages.

I want the creation software to run on both Windows and Mac systems. If possible, I would like all users to be able to download a single installation for any operating system. But it's also acceptable to have separate installations for Windows and Macs.

I also want the ebooks to be compatible with both Windows and Macs, regardless of whether they were created on a Windows or Mac system. But I don't want users to have to download any special software to view the ebooks. The software can produce a single file that's compatible with Windows and Macs, or a different file for each system.


Deliverables:
1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done.

2) Installation package that will install the software (in ready-to-run condition) on the platform(s) specified in this bid request.

3) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased.



Platform:
Windows, Mac

Must be 100% finished and received by buyer on:
Jun 1, 2003 EDT
Deadline legal notes: All times are expressed in the time zone of the site EDT (UT - 5). If the buyer omitted a time, then the deadline is 11:59:59 PM EDT on the indicated date.


Remember that contacting the other party outside of the site (by email, phone, etc.) on all business projects < $500 (before the buyer's money is escrowed) is a violation of both the software buyer and seller agreements. We monitor all site activity for such violations and can instantly expel transgressers on the spot, so we thank you in advance for your cooperation. If you notice a violation please help out the site and report it. Thanks for your help.
