hi there,
I saw a lot of apps that are able to download a audiofile after installing the app. how can I do the same with mobione. In mobione we can’t implement a lot of big audiofiles, but is there a way to let the people download the files after installing the app?
Thanx
Hi hichnaj,
Mobile browsers do not naturally support explicit file download.
Since you are developing a native application, an alternative approach is to fetch the file(s) directly and save to disk using the Cordova/PhoneGap api.Note: that the Test Center does not simulate the cordova api so you have to test from a native app or Web SIM available in 2.5M1.
See the Cordova/PhoneGap api here
http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.2.0/
http://docs.phonegap.com/en/2.9.0/ (Only for 2.5M1 or higher versions)Here are a couple of examples (google can find you many more):
