This issue has been opened  months ago and is unassigned? Well that's a good way of telling that you shouldn't touch this.


Furthermore, this wallet is dependent on blockchain to relay transactions. It is not a full independent wallet.

The code looks good and the GUI is nice but no one seems to develop it anymore.

Any wallet will depend on blockchain to relay transaction. Is not it normal ? Or u mean BlockChain.info here ?

I meant blockchain.info website.

Here are firstline of file app/js/blockchain.js

Code:
// Here we hold all the interactions with the blockchain.
var BLOCKCHAIN = new function () {
  
  this.retrieveBalance = function(address, callback) {
    url = 'http://blockchain.info/q/addressbalance/';
    this.tx_fetch(url + address, callback);
  }

Cant we make this.retrieveBalance independent of BlockChain.info ? I mean to say, the URL to be used will be in a config file and user may control whether it will be blockchain.info/biteasy.com/helloblock.io/blockr.io/his own blockexplorer URL running on VPS.

Yes you can. Just fork it on github and do the job. Code is very clear and easy to understand. If you know javascript, it is really a good basis to create a good deterministic wallet.
