Exploit custom dialog function: searching for help/hints - Page 2

So you suggest to simply add a new html file to one of these system paths... I was just a little afraid of this, that's why I was thinking to use interrogatePillow etc.

But probably you are right, it gets actually too complicated in that way.

It would have been really nice to load up html with absolute path instead of only these in system folder only... but it isn't possible I guess

I didn't try it, but maybe something like:

Code:

lipc-set-prop com.lab126.pillow customDialog '{"name": "../../../../mnt/us/example"}'

will load /mnt/us/example.html. I hope you'll understand principle. Note that I may be wrong in number of ...

Yes, the principle is clear.
I've tried again and it doesn't load any html files from usr/local/tests/pillow on Paperwhite 5.3.4

I've already tested something similar to what did you right, using instead the absolute path... I'll try yours too

UPDATE: Nothing

I believe, Pillow just loads HTML page, but doesn't show it by default. Loaded page should show itself. sample_custom_dialog does show itself on loading, using JavaScript code. Note that sample_custom_dialog's HTML page definitely loads scripts (and CSS). By relative URL paths.

Ah right! I'll put absolute path to all of them and retry! Thank you for your patience, Eureka..

eureka · 10-27-2013, 01:23 PM

I've tried the trick with .. and Pillow found requested file on /mnt/us. I see it in recent log entries (they don't contain "file missing" messages). But window is not shown, so certainly JavaScript part is crucial.

Aeris · 10-27-2013, 01:28 PM

That's great! I tought didn't work because I was missing the proper path for javascripts etc then....

Must I set it like the following?

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="///usr/share/webkit-1.0/pillow/sample_custom_dialog_strings.js">

Or dotted notation again

This format should work fine. (But this concrete path doesn't exist.)

Aeris · 10-27-2013, 02:22 PM

Yes sorry... thx again

Aeris · 10-27-2013, 04:02 PM

Yay, path problem simply solved copying the whole pillow folder into mnt/us/extensions/example !! Dots notation works great, I'm so happy! Later I'll keep only the needed stuff

Now I can play with the file without any risk of harming the device

twobob · 10-27-2013, 04:03 PM

sweet. post working example in top-post and make everyone happy

Just spoiler out the original question

Aeris · 10-27-2013, 04:16 PM

Here you go!!! Just copy in extensions folder... 22kb only

(file removed due copyright, sorry, didn't know)

Aeris · 10-27-2013, 04:18 PM

To understand better just use online indentation tools (I'll do it in the next "release", now I'm too impatient to try it out xD)

twobob · 10-27-2013, 04:19 PM
