Layering Mobile Controls

[Pierre Sahores]

Hi Ender Nafi,

Use one browser object only and to refresh it with one of the different contents to be displayed alternatively, put and adapt this JS script at the bottom of your html source code :

> 		<script type="text/javascript">
> 			var priogesture = 1, start_x = 0, stop_x = 0, start_y = 0, stop_y = 0;
> 			function $(id) { return document.getElementById(id); }
> 			$("zoom").addEventListener ("gesturestart", function (event) { priogesture = 1 });
> 			$("zoom").addEventListener ("gesturechange", function (event) { priogesture = 1 });
> 			$("zoom").addEventListener ("gestureend", function (event) { priogesture = 1 });
> 			$("zoom").addEventListener ("touchstart", function (event) { 
> 				start_x = event.touches[0].screenX; start_y = event.touches[0].screenY; priogesture = 0;
> 			});
> 			$("zoom").addEventListener ("touchmove", function (event) {
> 				stop_x = event.touches[0].screenX; stop_y = event.touches[0].screenY;
> 					if ((priogesture == 0) && (stop_x != 0) && (Math.abs(stop_x - start_x) > Math.abs(stop_y - start_y))) { 
> 					if (start_x < stop_x) {
> 						document.location.href="file:/data/data/yourmobileappid/cache/prev.html";
> 					} else if (start_x > stop_x) {
> 						document.location.href="file:/data/data/yourmobileappid/cache/next.html";
> 					}
> 				}
> 			});
> 			/* $("zoom").addEventListener ("touchend", function (event) { }); */
> 		</script>

and use the pseudo-files "prev.html" and "next.html" (both empty files) as callback's entry points to your livecode switch contents dedicated scripting :

against the iOS platform :

> on browserLoadRequested pUrl, pType
>    if the platform is "iPhone" then
>       if "/cache/prev.html" is in pURL 
>       then goPrevGaleryScreen
>       else if "/cache/next.html" is in pURL 
>       then goNextGaleryScreen
>    end if
> end browserLoadRequested

against the Android platform :

> on browserStartedLoading pUrl
>    if "/cache/prev.html" is in pURL and the platform is "android" then
>       goPrevGaleryScreen
>    else if "/cache/next.html" is in pURL and the platform is "android" then
>       goNextGaleryScreen
> end browserStartedLoading
