Experts shed some light on this...

does GCF proves any good for D7 performance?

Detecting Google Chrome Frame and Prompting to Install

GCF reports that it is available by extending the host's User-Agent header with the string chromeframe. You can use server-side detection to look for this token and determine whether GCF can be used for a page. If GCF is present, you can insert the required meta tag; if not, you can redirect users to a page that explains how to install GCF.As an alternative to server-side sniffing, you can use the CFInstall.js script to detect GCF and prompt users to install the plug-in without restarting their browsers. Using the script is straightforward:

<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/chrome-frame/1/CFInstall.min.js"></script>

<style>
/*
CSS rules to use for styling the overlay:
.chromeFrameOverlayContent
.chromeFrameOverlayContent iframe
.chromeFrameOverlayCloseBar
.chromeFrameOverlayUnderlay
*/
</style>

<script> // You may want to place these lines inside an onload handler
CFInstall.check({
mode: "overlay",
destination: "http://www.waikiki.com"
});
</script>
</body>
</html>

Ok. we know that you are very good at copying anything from internet you find in your blog.

But would not it be great if you could atleast tell people what "Google Chrome Frame" really is???

From 'http://code.google.com/chrome/chromeframe/'

Google Chrome Frame is an open source plug-in that seamlessly brings Google Chrome's open web technologies and speedy JavaScript engine to Internet Explorer. With Google Chrome Frame, you can:
- Start using open web technologies - like the see more HTML5 canvas tag - right away, even technologies that aren't yet supported in Internet Explorer 6, 7, or 8.
- Take advantage of JavaScript performance improvements to make your apps faster and more responsive.

Its something in beta stage and would take time for people to know about it. But how could you link it to Dolphin? This is something at user's end. I know we can detect browsers and if IE is detected, ask them to install Google Chrome Frame, but that's not a nice thing to do.

i was just asking what it is?
and how it could impact the performance of D7.
so the whole thing is about D7 performance...
if gcf can help it.
D7 will rock...

Its written clearly there what Google Chrome Frame is.

@gkcgautam

i'll learn from their valuable comments who can really understand what it means...

@Stuart038
the question is does GCF proves any good for D7 performance?

dolphin_jay
there is only one way to find out TRY IT .
tomakali
im pretty much following it.
since its in beta, the sample detection code also doesnt work occasionally.

If boonex listened to tomakali Dolphin would have EVERYTHING on the internet incorporated into it... thank god they don't.
tomakali
man, that would be great...
but for now i might need a 100% faster D7 than loads of features...
