I have an Air app, which loads my website through htmlLoader, and allows users to log in and interact with it through the app. My problem is I want some links to open outside the app (ie, in the default browser) but I havn't a clue on how to do this. I've tried navigateInSystemBrowser in the htmlLoader class, but for some reason, this opens the initial page in the default browser, and leaves my app empty. Any ideas?
yes
then you can use the dom references for your links to detect when a link is clicked and you can execute code to reload the html page (so the html-linked page doesn't load) and you can use navigateToURL. for example:
var htmlLoader:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader();
htmlLoader.width = 300;
htmlLoader.height = 300;
addChild(htmlLoader);
htmlLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
htmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("http://www.kglad.com/Files/test/menu.html"));
function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
htmlLoader.window.document.getElementsByTagName("a")[0].onclick = clickHandler;
}
var t:Timer=new Timer(1,1);
t.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,reloadF);
function clickHandler(e:Object):void{
t.start();
htmlLoader.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(htmlLoader.window.document.getElementsByTagName("a")[0].href));
}
function reloadF(e:TimerEvent):void{
htmlLoader.load(new URLRequest("http://www.kglad.com/Files/test/menu.html"));
}
