iphoneControlSet BrowserID, "rect", the rect of group "tbrowser"
iphoneControlSet browserID, "visible", "true"
-- Set up a suitable initial url
iphoneControlSet BrowserID, "url", theURL
end if
end preOpenCard

Hi vedus,
hm, no word about this in the dictionary!?
But you can always:
...
put url theURL into aVariable
...
and store that somewhere in the users documents folder.

hi klaus,
exist in the dictionary but trying to figure out why i get nothing from this command.
i am using the simulator for the iphone and i don't get the results from the put command
i get empty text fld.
here is the complete code from card 1
Code: Select all
global myarray
Global browserID
Global theURL
global tTitles
global thehtmlFile
on opencard
dbArrayToCard myarray
# quit if we are not on a mobile device
if the environment is not "mobile" then exit opencard
#Store Location
put fld"lat"& comma & fld"long" into Store_lng
if fld"lat"or fld"long" is empty then
//if store_lng is empty then
answer error "No Gps Data"
Answer "NOT able to track GPS location"
end if
#current location
wait 2000 millisecs
put mobileCurrentLocation() into tLocation
put tLocation["latitude"] into fld "Dlat"
put tLocation["longitude"] into fld "Dlong"
put fld"Dlat"& comma & fld"Dlong" into lat_lng
if lat_lng is empty then
answer error "NOT able to track GPS location"
end if
put specialFolderPath("documents") & "/navi2.html" into documentFilePath
if there is not a file documentFilePath then
put specialFolderPath("engine") & "/navi2.html" into engineFilePath
put URL ("binfile:" & engineFilePath) into URL ("binfile:" & documentFilePath)
end if
put empty into theData
put specialFolderPath("documents") & "/navi2.html" into thehtmlFile
put URL("file:" & thehtmlFile) into theData
put "var origin1 = new google.maps.LatLng(" & lat_lng & ");" into line 30 of theData
put "var destinationA = new google.maps.LatLng(" & Store_lng & ");" into line 31 of theData
put "zoom:17," into line 37 of theData
put theData into URL ("file:" & thehtmlFile)
put "file://" & specialFolderPath("documents") & "/navi2.html" into theURL
replace space with "%20" in theURL
end OpenCard
and here the card 2 with the map results
Code: Select all
Global browserID
Global theURL
Global thehtmlFile
on preopencard
-- Create our browser control and store the id
if the platform is "android" then
mobileControlCreate "browser"
put the result into BrowserID
mobileControlSet browserID, "rect", the rect of group "tbrowser"
mobileControlSet browserID, "visible", "true"
mobileControlSet BrowserID, "url", theURL
else
iphoneControlCreate "browser"
put the result into BrowserID
-- Native controls start off invisible
iphoneControlSet BrowserID, "rect", the rect of group "tbrowser"
iphoneControlSet browserID, "visible", "true"
-- Set up a suitable initial url
iphoneControlSet BrowserID, "url", theURL
end if
end preOpenCard
on opencard
put url theURL into tMap
answer tMap
put tMap int fld mapR
end opencard
on closeCard
if the environment is not "mobile" then
exit closeCard
put empty into fld "lat" of card drecords
put empty into fld "long" of card drecords
end if
-- Destroy the control, if we fail to do this native UIViews
-- will just accumulate
if the platform is "android" then
mobileControlDelete BrowserID
delete URL("file:" & thehtmlFile)
else
iphoneControlDelete BrowserID
delete file thehtmlFile

Hi vedus,
you can check the result, maybe that will give you some hints.
Code: Select all
on opencard
put url theURL into tMap
answer the result
## Should be empty on success
...

Sorry, mixed your variable names!
Of course I do not mean your HTML file on disk, but the real URL that you want to fetch and store -> http://...
Maybe -> theData?

Sorry, no idea what HTML you mean in the end?
Hint:
No need to differ between iOS and ANDROID!
The commands for "mobilecontrol..." etc. are identical since version 6.xxx
...
## if the platform is "android" then
## These commands are valid for BOTH Android AND iOS:
mobileControlCreate "browser"
put the result into BrowserID
mobileControlSet browserID, "rect", the rect of group "tbrowser"
mobileControlSet browserID, "visible", "true"
mobileControlSet BrowserID, "url", theURL
...
