Open link with Cocoon JS not working

[Ninjadoodle]

Hi guys

 

Has anyone been able to successfully open an external link using CocoonJS and Panda?

 

I've included the file (tried both the manual way and using the Panda plugin) and used ...

 

Cocoon.App.openURL('http://www.ludei.com');

 

All I get is errors, as if Cocoon JS was trying to load the websites graphics into the wrapper, instead of opening a window.

 

The Cocoon JS staff tell me it's working fine in their demos, so I'm lost.

 

Any advice would be appreciated!

 

Thank you!

Hi guys!

 

I still can't get this to work

 

Just wondering whether anyone has managed to get outgoing links working with CocoonJS?

 

Thank you for any info!

Hello,

 

You can use window.open ^^

window.open('http://google.com');

Hi @ThanosS

 

Thanks for replying

 

I've tried the above as well as the CocoonJS specific line Cocoon.App.openURL('http://www.ludei.com');

 

Neither works and throws errors.

 

No idea what to do about this or what might be causing it.

I noticed you are using a http://www.ludei.com');" and not "Cocoon.App.openURL('http://www.ludei.com;')"?

 

You should start debugging your code by deactivating parts of it until the problem no longer presents itself.

Hi @agamemnus

 

Yup I definitely have ...

 

Cocoon.App.openURL('http://www.ludei.com');

 

When I click the link while running the game in the CocoonJS player, I get errors and what looks like the CocoonJS wrapper trying to load the website's elements into the wrapper.

Hi, i had same issue like you. Make sure, you using latest 

cocoonjs plugin: https://github.com/ludei/cocoonjs-plugins/tree/master/build

 

I use this code in my game:

this.btnFacebook.click = this.btnFacebook.tap = function () {        if (navigator.isCocoonJS) {            Cocoon.App.openURL("https://www.facebook.com/pexesomemorygame");        } else {            window.open("https://www.facebook.com/pexesomemorygame");        }      };

Good luck.

Hi @Wraithi

 

Thank you for your help! I still can't get it to work tho

 

It works perfectly on desktop but not in CocoonJS.

 

I use the same code as you and include this file in my index.html ...

 

<script type="text/javascript" src="src/plugins/cocoon.js"></script>

Hi Ninjadoodle. 

I made a simple demo for you. Try this demo with latest CocoonJS:

(In demo, click on panda logo)

Hi @Wraithi

 

Thank you VERY much, for making the sample! I really appreciate your help

 

Your example works perfectly, but for some reason mine still doesn't. There are no differences as far as I can tell.

 

I've even tried copying your engine and cocoon files just to be sure.

 

I'm going to have to make a new folder and start pasting in things from scratch until I hit an error.

 

Thank you heaps again!!
