// set this function to run when the index screen is shown | |
function beginIndexScreen() | |
{ | |
// enter the URL to your google map API html here | |
var yourMapAPIURL = "http://your.domain/your_mapAPI.html"; | |
// do not change below here | |
// ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// | |
// create a reference to the (in this case) index screen | |
var scr = Screens.getScreen( 'index' ); | |
// create a new frame | |
var frame = new IFrame("myIFrame"); | |
frame.setPosition( 10, 10 ); | |
frame.setSize( 300, 300 ); | |
/* | |
AppFurnace IFrame objects create HTML DIV elements with IFrame | |
elements inside. unfortunately frame.setSrc() doesn't apply a | |
name attribute or id attribute to the DIV element | |
nor does it add these to the inner iframe element | |
they just look like this: | |
'<div> | |
<iframe></iframe> | |
</div>' | |
the solution is to rejig function the DIV and poke our own | |
innerHTML so that the pair of elements look like this: | |
'<div id='calMyIFrame'> | |
<iframe id='calMyIFrameSubframe'></iframe> | |
</div>' | |
After doing this, we will be able to interrogate the | |
elements in our Google Map API code, to determine if the | |
user has dropped markers, etc... | |
*/ | |
// configure the frame to load the rejig function | |
// IMPORTANT: this must be set before setSrc() is called | |
frame.setLoad( rejigTheFrame ); | |
// now configure the frame to load the appropriate page | |
frame.setSrc( mapAPIURL ); | |
frame.setAttribute( 'name', 'calMyIFrame' ); | |
frame.setAttribute( 'id', 'calMyIFrame' ); | |
// and add the frame to the screen | |
scr.add( frame ); | |
