I want to redirect to another page in Phonegap.
I have written the following code in javascript but it is not getting redirected:
window.location.href = "http://www.google.com";
Can anyone advise why it is not working?
You have to allow navigation of external sites inside your application by configuring the whitelist.
You have to use allow-navigation tag like this:
<allow-navigation href="http://www.google.com/*" />
Try doing the following:
Open your file Cordova.plist file
Right click on ExternalHosts -> Add Row
Set the String value of the new added row to *.
So, you should have your new added row like this:
Item0 String *
Normally, you should replace * with the external URL that you want to provide access to (like http://www.google.com for instance), but I used * to make sure that the problem comes from there or not.
For more information, check the "Domain Whitelist Guide" section of the online doc: http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.1.0/guide_whitelist_index.md.html#Domain%20Whitelist%20Guide .
Here's a simple working example using window.location.href:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
function init() {
window.location.href = "http://www.google.com";
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="init();">
</body>
</html>
Let me know if this works.
Most likely it's the page you are moving to. Does that page have the phongap.js files in it etc?
Try a simple test: create a new HTML page with just the basic elements and a couple words in the body so you know you are there. Save it as test.html. Now try window.location="test.html".
If that works then you know it's something in the new page.
Good luck!
Have you checked your framework initializations? Make sure jquery and phonegap are completely loaded before you try to change the page. Or else phonegap will hang and break.
Take a look here: Correct way of using JQuery-Mobile/Phonegap together?
Working fine for me with Cordova 4. Can you try remote debugging with Google Chrome and see what happen in the Javascript console?
Try without href:
window.location = "http://www.google.com";
if you use like window.location or window.location.href and it stll doesn't work in IOS or safrai.
you can use this:
var isAndroid = !!navigator.userAgent.match(/android/ig);
var targetUrl = 'your url';
window.location = targetUrl;
if(!isAndroid) {
var doc = window.document,
ifr = doc.createElement('iframe');
ifr.src = targetUrl;
ifr.style.cssText = 'display:none;';
doc.body.appendChild(ifr);
}

I am working on a Firefox Add, using the newest SDK. The problem I am having, is that when ever I try to run a custom dom function it doesn't work.
Scenario:
The firefox add-on must be able to loop through all tabs, and if the correct one is open based on the title, run a specific function, like: mydom.checkIt();
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My Web</title>
</head>
<body>
<script>
mydom = {};
mydom.checkIt = function (){
alert('Hi');
};
</script>
</body>
</html>
Then the add-on source code would be something like:
var tabs = require('sdk/tabs');
for (let tab of tabs)
{
if(tab.title=='My Web')
{
tab.activate();
}
}
tabs.on('activate', function(tab) {
tab.attach({
contentScript: "if(typeof(mydom)!=='undefined')mydom.checkIt();else console.log('no defined');"
});
});
But this doesn't work and it says always: "no defined"
Any ideas?
You have to get into the dom js scope with unsafeWindow or wrappedJSObject. So contentWindow.wrappedJSOBject.checkIt() works from bootstrap addon (not sure about sdk)
Warning though, this may not be e10s friendly and we should find a way to support that
I have MVC app.
I have written below code in the JS in Create view.
Basically on the basis of selection on drop down I show and hide the div.
Now the problem is below code works perfectly in Google chrome and Mozilla Firefox.
but now working in IE 8.
What should I do ?
$('#PaymentType').change(function(){
var ptype=document.getElementById("PaymentType").value;
if(ptype=="On Account")
{
$(".InvoiceDiv").hide();
}
else
{
$(".InvoiceDiv").show();
}
});
I am not sure what real issue is but since you are using jQuery why don't you use it for your ptype, too? With this, cross-browser issue will be minimized (if not completely avoided).
$('#PaymentType').change(function(){
var ptype = $(this).val();
...
});
Hope this helps.
If your Js files has full of references to a method called document.getelementbyid
Or order of your Js files and Css files which you import to program with < Link / > Tag ,
Reorder them and test it in IE
i think that the reason your code breaks right at the beginning of the function.
I began to learn PhoneGap recently in iOS platform, and I encountered a problem. How can I change the startPage?
I set startPage as follows:
self.viewController.startPage = #"http://www.google.com";
It did not work, and I also tried the following way:
NSURLRequest *request =
[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[URL URLWithString:#"http://www.google.com"]];
It also did not work.
I do not know how to do this. Is there anyone can help me out?
Here is what I did for my application.
Create a local index.html page as phonegap expects it.
Inside html, set window.location to whatever page you need it to go to.
Here is my index.html:
<html>
<head>
<script> window.location.href='http://www.google.com' </script>
</head>
<body>
<h1 class='loading'> Loading </h1>
</body>
</html>
Note: Make sure you put the http:// in the location otherwise it may consider as relative link.
Try this,
......
......
public partial class MainPage : PhoneApplicationPage
{
//variables…..
public MainPage()
{
InitializeComponent();
PGView.StartPageUri = new Uri(“www.google.com“, UriKind.Relative);
.....
.....
}

You can put starting point of application in plist file.
I have a subpage in a jquery mobile page where I'd like to insert att Google adwords conversion cookie. But using the traditional snippet from Adwords doesn't work. On Android it even makes the page go blank.
Anyone done this before?
You are probably loading the conversion script later on the page by doing something like this:
(function(){
var s=document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
var ga=document.createElement('script');
ga.type='text/javascript';
ga.async=true;
ga.src='http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js';
s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga,s);
})();
Or using a jQuery function to load scripts that is similar to the function above. Turns out that you can't include the conversion.js script in this manner because it uses document.write to write the img tag on the page. Because it uses document.write some browsers will remove everything from the page and replace the content with the output of document.write, which in this case is an empty gif.
You better use the default tag provided by google to mark a conversion. If you need to load it without a page refresh just open an iframe to a page that contains this tracking code.
<script type="text/javascript">
var google_conversion_id = 1234567890;
var google_conversion_language = "en_US";
var google_conversion_format = "1";
var google_conversion_color = "666666";
var google_conversion_label = "Purchase";
if (10.0) {
var google_conversion_value = 10.0
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion.js">
</script>
<noscript>
<img height=1 width=1 border=0
src="http://www.googleadservices.com/pagead/conversion/1234567890/?value=10.0&label=Purchase&script=0">
</noscript>
Of course this is just an example. You should use your own code that have your unique conversiod_id.
I researched this a bit, and came across the following links:
http://www.google.com/ads/mobile/publishers/web-publishers.html
https://support.google.com/adsense/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=185668
So it looks like depending on the type of ad you're running, you will have to get a customized unit for mobile.
However, I am still not sure why the page would go blank. I mean, I can totally see how some ad code does that when you try to lazy-load it, but I'm not sure why it happens in your situation.
I'm writing a MVC web app in ASP.NET MVC, which is supposed to be serving up a Flash object written by one of my colleagues. I don't know any Flash; he doesn't know any C#/ASP.NET; hence the question goes to SO!
The code on my web page looks like this:
<head>
(blah blah blah...)
<script type="text/javascript" src="/FlashStuff/js/swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var GP_MLM_flashvars = {};
GP_MLM_flashvars.remote = 'true';
GP_MLM_flashvars.streamprovider = 'localweb';
GP_MLM_flashvars.referer = '';
GP_MLM_flashvars.bgcolor = '#000033';
var GP_MLM_params = {};
GP_MLM_params.menu = 'false';
GP_MLM_params.allowFullScreen = 'true';
GP_MLM_params.salign = 'tl';
GP_MLM_params.scale = 'noscale';
GP_MLM_params.wmode = 'opaque';
GP_MLM_params.bgcolor = '#000033';
var GP_MLM_attributes = {};
GP_MLM_attributes.id = 'GP_MLM';
GP_MLM_attributes.name = 'GP_MLM';
swfobject.embedSWF('/FlashStuff/swf/GP_MLM.swf', 'GP_MLM', '100%', '100%', '9', '/FlashStuff/expressInstall.swf', GP_MLM_flashvars, GP_MLM_params, GP_MLM_attributes);
</script>
</head>
(etc.)
When I debug this page using the VS Development Server, it all appears very happily and works fine. But if I try to debug using my local IIS (7.5) server, the Flash object doesn't get loaded.
I'm guessing I need to do something on IIS to enable using the Flash object - but what?
EDIT: Problem partially solved; the clue came from the "404" error (thanks #Beliskner).
It appears that when you're running under the VS Development Server, your root folder is the project folder, and in my case "/FlashStuff" comes directly off my project folder, so that worked fine.
But when you run off the IIS server, the root folder is the Default Web Site (or whatever site you're using). Now, with a project URL set to "http://localhost/MyTestApp", I have to prefix all my paths with "/MyTestApp", e.g.:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/MyTestApp/FlashStuff/js/swfobject.js"></script>
Changed all the paths; works fine now.
This is a pretty ugly situation now, though - because I am now hard coding deployment-specific information into my app! So if I decide to deploy my app onto an IIS server in a folder called "MyLiveApp", I have to go around changing the file references everywhere! And if I want to debug it - then what? Go changing all the references back to "MyTestApp"?
Obviously I'm not the first developer to come up against this situation, and it is unthinkable that you have to do what I'm saying above. So what is the trick for dealing with this situation?
Have you setup the IIS MIME types? Have you used firefox firebug to check the request isn't 404ing?
Mime types
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725608(WS.10).aspx - I suggest using the GUI
Extension: ".swf"
Type is: "application/x-shockwave-flash"
Firebug
Firebug network monitor: http://getfirebug.com/network

Try embedding the Flash object in the body of your html page
<head> (blah blah blah...)
<script type="text/javascript" src="/FlashStuff/js/swfobject.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var GP_MLM_flashvars = {};
GP_MLM_flashvars.remote = 'true';
GP_MLM_flashvars.streamprovider = 'localweb';
GP_MLM_flashvars.referer = '';
GP_MLM_flashvars.bgcolor = '#000033';
var GP_MLM_params = {};
GP_MLM_params.menu = 'false';
GP_MLM_params.allowFullScreen = 'true';
GP_MLM_params.salign = 'tl';
GP_MLM_params.scale = 'noscale';
GP_MLM_params.wmode = 'opaque';
GP_MLM_params.bgcolor = '#000033';
var GP_MLM_attributes = {};
GP_MLM_attributes.id = 'GP_MLM';
GP_MLM_attributes.name = 'GP_MLM';
swfobject.embedSWF('/FlashStuff/swf/GP_MLM.swf', 'GP_MLM', '100%', '100%', '9', '/FlashStuff/expressInstall.swf', GP_MLM_flashvars, GP_MLM_params, GP_MLM_attributes);
</script>
(etc.)
</body>
I guess embedSWF is a javascript function to write out the object tag
Yes, you need to add swf as a IIS 7 mime type per site.
I had this same issue with .mp4 files
