Hi Guys. I am new to using MobiOne and I read online that in order to program functions you should go to the file named projectname_custom.js. I opened this with notepad++, added a function, and saved the file. When I tried to use the function with a button in my app by typing the following code:
whenPressed();
Nothing happened. When I pasted the functions code directly into the button it worked fine. What am I doing wrong?Thanks!
In the Run Javascript box of the button, place the code:
whenPressed();In the _custom.js file, place this code:
function whenPressed(){ alert('pressed!'); }By the way, you can open/edit the _custom.js file directly in MobiOne.
Really? How do you do that. That would be so useful!
By the way I just tried your recommendation and the program did nothing. Do I need to reopen the project after I make a change? Or are there any prerequisites, do I somehow have to link the file to the project?
Just add the code to the <project_name>_custom.js file and you should be good to go. Have you generated the files for your project? Once you do that the _custom.js file can be found in your project’s www folder.
I have, and I have managed to open it up in MobiOne. However, even using the exact code you gave me, the functions do not work.
Hi liortulip,
See the next doc that suggests how to bind a javascript function with a widget:
http://www.genuitec.com/mobile/docs/workingWithGeneratedFiles/workingWithGeneratedFiles.html#using_javascript_to_customizeIf after doing that it is not working it might be because you are adding your function in the wrong _custom.js file or there is a javascript error syntax on it so the function can’t be called.
