Giving showWebPopup a dismiss or cancel button
Posted on Fri, 2010-03-05 15:26
It would be nice if
native.showWebPopup( inUrl,webOptions )
could run inside a window or display that was slightly less than full screen size so there could also be a dismiss button.
At present there is no way (that I have found) for the user to dismiss the web popup when finished and return to the program.
the only alternative is to use native.showWebPopup( url ) to take you to safari
then when the user is done, return to the program which will hopefully be at the same screen
I would prefer screen shifting to dismiss the web popup.
But at present, there is not code way for a user action to trigger system.cancelWebPopup() is there?

The new command is native.showWebPopup(x, y, x.size, y.size, "page.html", {baseUrl = system.ResourceDirectory, urlRequest = functionToBeCalled})
in order to cancel the popup, all you have to do is to create a button calling a function that run the native.cancelWebPopup command.

Never tried but you can try the following:
1 2 3 4 | local window = display.newGroup() local test = native.showWebPopup(x, y, x.size, y.size, "page.html", {baseUrl = system.ResourceDirectory, urlRequest = functionToBeCalled}) window:insert(test) transition.to(window, {time=150, rotation=90}) |
let me know if it worked.
