mobileControlDo

[Ralph DiMola]

Pierre, 

Nice!!!

Also being able send a message from the browser to the app would be sweet. I have a html map. When you tap on a county a pick list of options is displayed. The java reloads the page and puts the x/y location in the url parameters. The app gets the page load message and retrieves the x/y from the url and presents the appropriate pick list. The page retreat is a little tricky though. Instead of that 3 ring circus a way to send a message directly to the app from some sort of java deal would be a nice feature. I don't know if this is even possible.

</div>Hi Mark,

Many thanks for your helpful guidance !

Understood : mobileControlDo returns the last line of the executed javascript « as this » , so all works as expected with :

on mouseup
      -- mobileControlCreate "browser", "Browser1" inited in the preOpenStack handler --
      MobileControlDo "Browser1", "execute", fld « javascript"
      answer the result — success --
end mouseup

the « javascript » fld contents :

window.name = Number(window.name) +1;
window.name; // correct statement

OK !

While my previous mistake was to write this, instead :

window.name = Number(window.name) +1;
return window.name; // erroneous statement 

KO !

Conclusion : mobileControlDo acts perfectly well to let us store and exchange persistant data between the mobile browser and LC (iOS and Android successfully tested).

Warm Regards,

Pierre
