Subject: Re: iframe link to open Safari

Well, you're right, sort of... you'll need to access it via the
parent page—a relative path vs. the frame; the following code does that:

<div onclick="parent.widget.openURL('http://
developer.apple.com/');">Click Me.</div>

...

we're getting close!

if (parent.window.widget) {parent.widget.openURL...}
or
if (parent.widget) {parent.widget.openURL...}

appears to work fine -- if the iframe is a local file, i.e., inside the widget. thanks.

however, if the iframe file is remote, it fails (it doesn't open Safari; linked page opens in the widget itself).


here's an example I concocted:
    http://home.comcast.net/~saweyer/test/IframeLinkTest.wdgt.zip

when it opens, it uses the local file (IframeContent.html) -- the two embedded links open the Apple web site in Safari. so far so good.

if you then select Remote from menu, it updates to the remote version of the file -- filename has "2" suffix;
and table label omits "loc" prefix for iframe heading; otherwise, everything else, javascript & links are identical.
links in iframe fail to open Safari but display inside the widget.

suggestions?

thanks

Steve
