WebGL linking to external URL?

Question

Hi Gents,

 When building for target=WebGL I'd like to be able to do a touch handler press on a filename and have it like to, say, http://localhost/filename for the browser to download. How can I accomplish such external-to-app referencing?

Hello Mike,

difficult to give you the right advice as it is more related to web page programming than to the Embedded Wizard.

Generally, you can implement any JavaScript code within a native code section. If you place the native code section within a slot method connected to the touch handler, the native code will be executed when the user touches within the handler's area.

The native code can thus perform the download. In Internet you can find examples how to implement such code by using JavaScript. Try to search for "How to download files in JavaScript".

I hope it helps you further.

Best regards
