using typeform.com with Livecode

Post by newtronsols » Wed Apr 02, 2014 6:05 pm

I simply modified the Example Browser in the newsletter with:

mobileControlSet sBrowserId, "url", "https://mobileappfactory.typeform.com/to/I8jkYx"

If you test : https://mobileappfactory.typeform.com/to/I8jkYx this works.

But then when tested via USB to my android the submit button at the end doesn't show.

Hi NewTronsols,

I have given the typeform website a go via a mobile browser, embedded in a LiveCode stack and there definitely seems to be some forum of web page rendering issue. I tried the URL on both the default stock Android browser and withing a mobile browser on iOS and it works without any issues.

It look like what you have discovered is a bug in the native android browser implementation within LiveCode and as this is a case, it would be great if you could file a bug report on the issue with our quality control team-

Our QC team will aim to promptly investigate the issue and if possible, implement a fix.

There is a possible alternative I could suggest and in involves launching the default Android browser on your device via-

Code: Select all

launch URL "https://mobileappfactory.typeform.com/to/I8jkYx" 

Although this does not open a browser directly within your stack, it should allow user to fill in a form and return to your app after they have done so.


Kind Regards,


Neil Roger

Works with a standard Livecode button but not a mobgui button - Android.

HI newstronsols,

I have edited the datagrid example with a mobGui button on the following forum post and all seems to be working as expected-
