Re: Android: mobileControlSet

2012-07-19 Thread Dan Friedman
Man, I don't know what I am doing wrong!

Here's EXACTLY what I am doing:

 put specialFolderPath(engine)  /userGuide/  pFileName into fURL
 put file:  fURL into fURL
 answer (url (fURL)) --to test that it can read the file, and that the file is 
there
 mobileControlSet sBrowserId,url,fURL

When this runs on my Android device, I get a answer dialog of the text of the 
html document.  So, it has to be reading the file that is in the right place!  
But, I get a Webpage not available message in the browser.

Seems to work for everyone but me... I'm lost.

-Dan


 Folks,
 
 Use something like:
 
 file:  the engine folder
 
 Do not use the double slash after the protocol.
 
 Cheers

  I've loaded local files successfully on Android. Just for curiosity's

I can't remember. I'm sure I must have had a reason. For the docs, the 
engine folder would have worked.

All I can think of is to rename the file to a single word and see if 
that works. If not, look at the content of the file and see if the html 
might be incompatible somehow. Try a simple file with the bare minimum 
html to see if you can get that to display. Or put the file on your 
server and see if the default Android browser can open it.


Stabs in the dark.

Dan,

I've never done== replace   with %20 in fURL. on Android for a local
file. As far as I know the Android file system will not like the %20s for
file access on the device.

Subject: Android: mobileControlSet

I can't seem to load a local (included) file in a native browser on Android.
This works perfect on iOS:

on loadURL pFileName
put specialFolderPath(engine)  /userGuide/  pFileName into fURL

put file://  fURL into fURL
replace   with %20 in fURL
mobileControlSet sBrowserId, url, fURL end loadURL

But, on Android, it just says it can't find the file.  I used if there is a
file to check the validity of the file and it is there.  I can even read
it in and display it with:

mobileControlDo sBrowserId, load, fURL, htmlData

But again, fURL doesn't seem to be accepted so any referenced images in
htmlData are missing.

Can Android load a file into it's native browser control?  Or, am I doing
something wrong?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Dan,

Rename the apk to .zip and look in the assets folder and see if the file is  
where you expect it to be. The apk assets folder will become the engine  
folder on the device. Also remember the engine folder is read only.
