Reproduction

I had to type this up twice.. Your site timed me out by the time i wrote this.. Are you people nuts?. Do you know it takes time to report a bug and you made me do it twice.. I am really pissed now.

(Code deleted by Administrator)

Description

Ok.. i have to be brief.

I built a little presentation using the utility above but it didnt load.. it worked fine in IE, Firefox and Opera but not in sitekiosk.

I am thinking of using Ajax in my application.. Does sitekiosk work with AJAX.

Hope this doesnt timeout..
I am not going to write this up a third time

regards
Krish

Hello,

as SiteKiosk is using the Internet Explorer Webbrowser Control you usually can also display web pages using Ajax.

Within the code that you have posted I can’t detect any problem.

- Is the URL publically available?
- What information is given in the log file (…\SiteKiosk\Logfiles) when you get this problem?
You might enable the log file output window (-->Management-->Log Files).
- Does it work in “Run once” mode?

Were you able to get it working with the code? It should be pretty straightforward to reproduce.
Here is more detail steps in case you need them. I dont have a publically available test page.

1. Create a file named slideshow.js with the javascript utility I posted earlier.
2. Use this code snippet in a test page test.html. Replace <URL1> and <URL2> with the url of the images in the slideshow.


<SCRIPT SRC="./slideshow.js"></SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT>
SLIDES.add_slide(new slide('<URL1>', 'http://www.google.com')
SLIDES.add_slide(new slide('<URL2>', 'http://www.yahoo.com')
<SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
<!--
if (document.images) {
SLIDES.image = document.images.SLIDESIMG;
SLIDES.textid = "SLIDESTEXT";
SLIDES.update();
SLIDES.play(5000);
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

3. Please let me know if you can actually run this in sitekiosk.

Hello,

to help you any further please answer to my questions first:
- Is the URL publically available? (that I can check it with using it)
- What information is given in the log file (…\SiteKiosk\Logfiles) when you get this problem?
-->You might enable the log file output window (-->Management-->Log Files).
- Does it work in “Run once” mode?

Hi

- As I mentioned earlier that I dont have a public url available for this test.
- I dont have access to the log because I have been completely locked out of my test machine .. due to another kiosk application I was testing. I have to reinstall get the OS reinstalled. Waiting for this.
- I am not sure if it was in run once mode when i tested it. As i dont have access to my test machine I cannot test it. at the moment. I cannot risk being locked out of my main machine.

I provided the configuration so you should be able to recreate it. Please let me know if you can help.

Cheers
Krish
