[Applify]

Hey everyone,

I’m a student from Applify, we are an educational company and we are going to make an app for our village.
I’m using the trial version atm and we are going to buy the full version soon, but I’m having problems with implementing html code from a website to my native app.

I want to make a sort of news module, so I need to load HTML from a website to a text field and it needs to refresh automatically.

I’ve already been reading on the HOW-TO support forum a lot but I can’t really find a solution.. I’ve been testing with form properties to show data-html/text from an URL but it doesn’t load at all.. The only thing that worked atm was with WEB PAGE UI but I don’t really want to use that because I want HTML from a website in a text field, not displaying the whole site fullscreen.

I’m new to developing apps and mobione, so if you guys have other suggestions or an solution please let me know! 🙂

Greetings

Hi,

There are some examples of users doing this on either How-to or Get Help forum ( http://www.genuitec.com/support-genuitec/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=5716 ). They add a html widget and then fetch html code from a server and update the html widget with this code. This approach by passes the known issues with iframe on ios. But it requires the developer to be familiar with javascript, fetching data via an ajax call and dom manipulation.

Hey Octavio,

Thanks for the answer! I understand the tutorial and what I should do, but I’ve one general problem.. I don’t understand/know how to connect the button with the html widget.
So when I push the button, a javascript will load but I don’t get it displayed on my html because I haven’t connected it too eachother, or is it another problem?

P.S. The javascript is working because it displays the website when I click on it but in a pop-up.
