The Web is all about links and a qooxdoo application is still a web application. So how it can be done so a link from another source perform a specific action in the qooxdoo application. A concrete example I have is with password reset links. Let's say a user receives a link that he can click, go to the web page types twice the password, the form is submitted and the new password is valid.
In qooxdoo desktop the workflow would be somehow different. The user clicks the link, **goes to the main app, the main app opens a window with two password fields**, the user submits the form and the new password is valid. But how can I make the main app see the link and open the appropriate window? I saw the code of Apiviewer and the only relevant part I found is this https://github.com/qooxdoo/qooxdoo/blob/master/component/apiviewer/source/class/apiviewer/Viewer.js#L78 I couldn't find the part where it loads the class from a bookmarked link Also I don't know how to implement such functionality. An idea I have is this: The user clicks the link http://mypage.com/bookmarkable/stuff The server returns a stuff.html page with javascript that writes instructions in the cookie for the main app and then redirects to the main page In the main page the main app looks at the cookie and if it finds instructions acts upon them and then deletes them. Is this a good idea? Any criticism or pointers to better ideas? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ qooxdoo-devel mailing list qooxdoo-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/qooxdoo-devel
