I have some code that loads an html file in a ms-webview within a Windows 8 store app (winJS) and I'm having an issue checking the URL src of the ms-webview. Basically, the user is able to navigate within the local html files, but I want to detect when they are back on the "home" screen...
var home = "ms-appdata://local/somefile.html";
myWebView.addEventListener("MSWebViewContentLoading", function(e) {
console.log(myWebView.src); // something like: ms-local-stream://[app_key]/somefile.html
console.log(e.uri); // same as above
if (myWebView.src === home) {
// nope...
}
});
myWebView.navigate(home);
As you can see above, the webview doesn't seem to give me a way to get the URL that I actually navigated to... Thoughts?
And yes, I could inspect the ms-local-stream URL path for the file I'm looking for, but surely there's a way to get the URL that was navigate to from the webview??

I have a workflow that adds a button "Open Link" and a field on the record called "URL" that contains a hyperlink to an attachment in NetSuite. I want to add a workflow action script that opens this url in a different page. I have added the script and the workflow action to the workflow. My script:
function openURL() {
var url = nlapiGetFieldValue('custbody_url');
window.open(url);
}
I get this script error after clicking the button: "TypeError: Cannot find function open in object [object Object].
How can I change my script so it opens the URL in the field?
(This function works when I try it in the console)
Thanks!
Do you want it to work when the record is being viewed or edited? They have slightly different scripts. I'm going to assume you want the button to work when the record is being viewed, but I'll write it so it works even when the document is being edited as well.
The hard part about the way Netsuite has set it up is that it requires two scripts, a user event script, and a client script. The way #michoel suggests may work too... I've never inserted the script by text before personally though.
I'll try that sometime today perhaps.
Here's a user event you could use (haven't tested it myself though, so you should run it through a test before deploying it to everyone).
function userEvent_beforeLoad(type, form, request)
{
/*
Add the specified client script to the document that is being shown
It looks it up by id, so you'll want to make sure the id is correct
*/
form.setScript("customscript_my_client_script");
/*
Add a button to the page which calls the openURL() method from a client script
*/
form.addButton("custpage_open_url", "Open URL", "openURL()");
}
Use this as the Suitescript file for a User Event script. Set the Before Load function in the Script Page to userEvent_beforeLoad. Make sure to deploy it to the record you want it to run on.
Here's the client script to go with it.
function openURL()
{
/*
nlapiGetFieldValue() gets the url client side in a changeable field, which nlapiLookupField (which looks it up server side) can't do
if your url is hidden/unchanging or you only care about view mode, you can just get rid of the below and use nlapiLookupField() instead
*/
var url = nlapiGetFieldValue('custbody_url');
/*
nlapiGetFieldValue() doesn't work in view mode (it returns null), so we need to use nlapiLookupField() instead
if you only care about edit mode, you don't need to use nlapiLookupField so you can ignore this
*/
if(url == null)
{
var myType = nlapiGetRecordType();
var myId = nlapiGetRecordId();
url = nlapiLookupField(myType, myId,'custbody_url');
}
//opening up the url
window.open(url);
}
Add it as a Client Script, but don't make any deployments (the User Event Script will attach it to the form for you). Make sure this script has the id customscript_my_client_script (or whatever script id you used in the user event script in form.setScript()) or else this won't work.
Another thing to keep in mind is that each record can only have one script appended to it using form.setScript() (I think?) so you may want to title the user event script and client script something related to the form you are deploying it on. Using form.setScript is equivalent to setting the script value when you are in the Customize Form menu.
If you can get #michoel's answer working, that may end up being better because you're keeping the logic all in one script which (from my point of view) makes it easier to manage your Suitescripts.
The problem you are running into is that Workflow Action Scripts execute on the server side, so you are not able to perform client side actions like opening up a new tab. I would suggest using a User Event Script which can "inject" client code into the button onclick function.
function beforeLoad(type, form) {
var script = "window.open(nlapiGetFieldValue('custbody_url'))";
form.addButton('custpage_custom_button', 'Open URL', script);
}
I work on Jquery Mobile/Phonegap app for android.
I´d like my app to "remember" that(if) the user has visited one of my pages. For example if he once visits "page1.html", this action should be cached in the phone memory, so that when the user opens the app again there should be possibility to navigate to this "page2.html" directly from "index.thml".
Please, if you have a code suggestion, tell me also how/where do I use it, because sometimes for starters like me it is realy hard to understand what to do with a little piece code.
Thank you very much!
You can use HTML5 local storage for this purpose.
Each time when a page is shown you can save/update the current page URL to a local storage variable, say 'lastVisit', as below:
$(document).on('pageshow', function (event, data) {
var currentPage = $('.ui-page-active').data('url');
localStorage.setItem("lastVisit", currentPage);
});
If you are not getting $('.ui-page-active').data('url'), then you can use $.mobile.activePage.attr('id') which will give you the current page id.
So next time, when the user opens the app again, you can check whether this local storage variable is set and can action accordingly.
The code will look like as below:
$(document).on('mobileinit', function(){
var lastVisit = '';
if(localStorage.getItem("lastVisit") != null){
lastVisit = localStorage.getItem("lastVisit");
}
if(lastVisit){
document.location.href = lastVisit;
}
});
You can use these codes in the header section scripts.
I have a webapp that wants to offload walking / driving directions to a phone's native apps. This would be Google Maps app and maps.apple.com for Android and iOS respectively. I can detect the phone from the user agent presumably, but I can't work out how to configure the link.
<li><a href ng-click="geoHandler()"> Directions</a></li>
This is what I have in the relevant controller.
$scope.geoHandler = function() {
// user agent sniffing here
var path = "geo:0,0?q="+$scope.resto.lat+","+$scope.resto.lng+"("+$scope.resto.rname+")";
// var path = http://maps.apple.com/?ll=$scope.resto.lat+","+$scope.resto.lng
return $location.path(path);
}
When I had the geo link as the href in the html, the phone did the right thing, but now this code is taking me simply to the home page of my SPA.
So, my questions are:
is ng-click the right way to go (I can't use a function with ng-href I think);
how do I launch an intent via $location?
OK, I moved to a different and simpler approach. Not sure whether it is the most elegant, but it works.
View
<a ng-href="{{geoPath}}">Directions</a>
Controller
if ( /iPhone/.test(navigator.userAgent))
path = "http://maps.apple.com/?ll="+$scope.resto.lat+","+$scope.resto.lng";
else path = "geo:0,0?q="+$scope.resto.lat+","+$scope.resto.lng+"("+$scope.resto.rname+")";
$scope.geoPath = path;
I fetch a URL into an IFRAME, and now would like to capture a thumbnail of the result to later show the user the links they have followed.
void receiveHtml(Event e) {
...
iframe.convertToImage... // <----- ????? How to do this?
}
IFrameElement iframe = query('#iframehtml') as IFrameElement;
...
iframe.on.load.add(receiveHtml);
...
iframe.src = url; // E.g. url='http://someplace.com/dir/'
Is there a way in DART to capture the iframe document to an image? (which I can then shrink to a thumbnail and store for later).
You can't do this on the client-side, at least not without the iframe being in the same origin ("the same website"). Otherwise, it would be a security risk, because it opens the door to many possibilities like screenshotting a bank website with the user's bank account details.
However, you could do this on the server side, but it does not get much easier.
One thing you could do is to install webkit2png and let it make screenshots of websites. You could just call it something like this:
import 'dart:io';
main() {
Process.run('python', ['/path/to/webkit2png', 'http://google.com']).then((result) {
// Here you can open and do whatever you want with the screenshots.
// The files are placed in the current directory.
print(new File('somescreenshot.png').readAsBytesSync());
});
}
I have a BrowserField in my app, which works great. It intercept NavigationRequests to links on my website which go to external sites, and brings up a new windows to display those in the regular Browser, which also works great.
The problem I have is that if a user clicks a link to say "www.google.com", my app opens that up in a new browser, but also logs it into the BrowserHistory. So if they click back, away from google, they arrive back at my app, but then if they hit back again, the BrowserHistory would land them on the same page they were on (Because going back from Google doesn't move back in the history) I've tried to find a way to edit the BrowserField's BrowserHistory, but this doesn't seem possible. Short of creating my own class for logging the browsing history, is there anything I can do?
If I didn't do a good job explaining the problem, don't hesitate for clarification.
Thanks
One possible solution to this problem would be to keep track of the last inner URL visited before the current NavigationRequest URL. You could then check to see whether the link clicked is an outside link, as you already do, and if it is call this method:
updateHistory(String url, boolean isRedirect)
with the last URL before the outside link. Using your example this should overwrite "www.google.com" with the last inner URL before the outside link was clicked.
Here is some half pseudocode/half Java to illustrate my solution:
BrowserFieldHistory history = browserField.getHistory():
String lastInnerURL = "";
if navigationRequest is an outside link {
history.updateHistory(lastInnerURL, true);
// Handle loading of outer website
} else {
lastInnerURL = navigationRequest;
// Visit inner navigation request as normal
}
http://www.blackberry.com/developers/docs/5.0.0api/net/rim/device/api/browser/field2/BrowserFieldHistory.html#updateHistory(java.lang.String, boolean)
I had a similar but a little bit different issue. Special links in html content like device:smth are used to open barcode scanner, logout etc and I wanted them not to be saved in BrowserFieldHistory. I found in WebWork source code interesting workaround for that. All that you need is throw exception at the end like below:
public void handleNavigationRequest( BrowserFieldRequest request ) throws Exception {
if scheme equals to device {
// perform logout, open barcode scanner, etc
throw new Exception(); // this exception prevent saving history
} else {
// standard behavior
}
}
