Re: [Google Wave APIs] Re: Can one user proxy many users
Hi Pamela, Have you guys started provisioning apps domains? I signed up when it first came out but haven't heard anything since them.

[Google Wave APIs] Headings
Hi, I think my question relates to this bug (but it's not very clear) http://code.google.com/p/google-wave-resources/issues/detail?id=85 but the bug is reported closed and moved to the Java API. I am using the python API for robots. I would like to access information about which parts of the text are marked up as headings (i.e. h1 or h2) and I would have thought this would just be an annotation of some description, but it doesn't appear to be. Is there any way to get this information? Seems odd that it's missing, when bold text etc. is annotated. I can't see this information anywhere in the JSON packet the bot receives. Am I missing something, why is this bug closed?

[Google Wave APIs] Internal links in Wave
Hi all, Apologies if this is documented somewhere and I haven't be able to find it. Is there a method (perhaps some sort of annotation) of creating internal links within a wave (i.e as I said in my earlier blip) where earlier blip is a link to the blip of interest, or links to a specific part of a Wave from other Waves (i.e. as Mr Fishy said in this other Wave linking to the correct blip in the Wave). I guess this could get complicated if Waves are edited etc. but it seems also quite useful. I am interested if there is a standard for how to do this because I want people to be able to refer to equations (i.e. as I showed in *eqn 4* etc.) and I'm writing an equation gadget/robot. The other question I had was, somewhat related. Is there a standard way to link to a Wave. The reason I ask is most links are currently of the form wave.google.com/... or wave.google.com/a/sandbox... but obviously once Waves are federated I just want to point to the Wave independent of the client. I.e. I might be using wave.google.com and you might be using fedone.com for your waving, but we can both access the public wave which was started on example.com in our clients. It seems there is two ways of doing this, defining a Wave protocol (wave://example.com/#HASH) or using a standardized HTML redirect (i.e. always link waves as http://wave.com/example.com/#HASH) and the redirect can ask (and remember) which client the user is using. Or possibly there are cleverer ways I haven't thought of.

[Google Wave APIs] Re: Dynamic height gadget not always resizing
Hi, So after much mucking about I've found that when the gadget fails in Chrome/Safari the init function is called and setStateCallback is set but the stateChanged function is never called. This happens sometimes on Chrome and never on Firefox (Mac). It seems to occur more often when the Wave is larger with more gadgets. It seems the issue is the way that I use the Wave library (since I am using mode changes, I need wave-preview). If you use wave-preview as per the documentation errors arise in Chrome and Safari (on the Mac) but your gadget will work in Firefox. I've reported the bug. http://code.google.com/p/google-wave-resources/issues/detail?id=333 However, the work around is to remove require wave and require wave-preview from your gadget specification and add the line: script src=https://wave-api.appspot.com/public/wave.js; type=text/javascript/script to the top of the HTML of your gadget. Hopefully this might solve your problem too Chris and Vision Jinx. Pamela, what is the deal with https://wave-api.appspot.com/public/wave.js. I noticed some of the gadget examples use this method of accessing the wave api (which is how I found it). Is this recommended? Do you know why this solves my problem?

[Google Wave APIs] Reference JS file from XML with relative path
Hi, I am running my test version of my gadget on a different version of appengine from the deployed version. I just wasted a bunch of time trying to figure out why none of my changes were not working before I realized that my XML gadget specification references pulls in the javascript file script src =... using an absolute URL so it was pointing to the deployed version the whole time. Initially I had tried to use a relative URL (the js file and the XML file reside in the same directory) but it didn't work. Is there any easy way to do this without resorting to server side scripts? To make things clearer. a.com/gadget.xml a.com/gadget.js at the moment the only way I can find to include the js file from XML requires specifying the absolute URL (src=http://a.com/gadget.js') but the problem is that if the whole thing is moved to b.com then the gadget is still loading a.com js file until the xml specification is edited, it would be much nicer if there was a way to use a relative URL. And I want to keep the js seperate for tidyness, debugging etc. Thanks for any help, Jonny -- Jonathan J Hunt j...@42quarks.com Homepage: http://www.42quarks.com (Further contact details there) Physics isn't the most important thing.

Is this simply a preview problem (can't say that I've seen it in the developer sandbox) ? -- Jonathan J Hunt j...@42quarks.com Homepage: http://www.42quarks.com (Further contact details there) Physics isn't the most important thing.

[Google Wave APIs] Server-side timestamp
Hi, I have a question about the best way to manage state changes with an interactive gadget. My gadget has a textbox for user's to write an equation in (http://waveyscience.appspot.com). Every time the user types in the textbox I change the stored equation (submitDelta). I don't want to wait until they leave the textbox so that other user's can see any changes they make right away. Now the problem is that, for the user's who haven't edited the textbox, upon receiving a stateUpdated event they need to update the textbox, but the editing user may have written another character in the mean time and I wouldn't be polite to overwrite that. At the moment I get around this by having a variable lastUpdate which records the last state update submitted, and ignores state changes until the lastUpdate state change is received. This means if user types a and then b generating state changes a and ab quickly, the stateUpdated event with just the state change 'a' (which will occur after both keypresses if typing quickly) will get ignored in the originating gadget (because it is waiting for the state change 'ab' which it know's it has submitted). This seems to work. The only problem is, that (I think) if another user types 'c' quickly, then the state might get merge on the server and so the state change to 'ab' will never be received by the gadget. This leaves it in a stuck state waiting for state change that will never come and ignoring other ones. One hack would be to have some sort of timeout. But it seems like a better way would be to have submitDelta give some sort of server side timestamp, so one can test in statedUpdated if that delta is still pending or a newer state is now available. getTime seems like it might be the kinda thing I'm after but I can't really see how to use it, and at the moment I think it just gives the client time (which won't work if the client clocks are out of sync (and they'd only need to be out by milliseconds). Basically, what I'm asking is, does anyone have a demo implementation of a gadget that is just a textbox editable by multiple users, synchronizing with each keypress. I don't quite understand the Wave way to do this, as gadget's don't have access to the full Wave OT. Thanks for any help.

[Google Wave APIs] Re: wave.getMode() troubles
Hi,
You can see the simple equation gadget I built which uses getMode and
seems to work (for me).

Changed the require feature as you stated, but it still isn't
working. :| I'll continue sifting through the source of other gadgets
to try and figure it out. Thanks.

Hi nerd_boy -
We are currently updating the documentation with a notice that some
functionality (like this) is only available in the latest version of the
API.
Change Require feature=wave to wave-preview and it should work.
Check the Map Gadget in the samples gallery for example usage.

'lo all
Firstly, let me say I don't have access to the Sandbox, so if
this is a silly question that would easily be answered there or
whatever, that is why.
Toying around with making a gadget, and I'm wanting to have a
different view if the wave is in EDIT mode rather than the regular
VIEW mode. However, with the code:
if(wave.getMode()==wave.Mode.VIEW){document.write(View Mode);
else if(wave.getMode()==wave.Mode.EDIT){document.write(Edit
Mode);
in script tags, neither one appear either when I'm viewing the wave
or when I'm editing it. I threw a document.write(Testing
Javascript); outside of the if statements to ensure I hadn't borked
anything else up, and that at least prints.
So, any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong? Or is getMode not yet
fully supported in Wave Preview? Thanks in advance,
--nerd_boy
