I am trying to create an app with App Inventor which allows you to see files from a server and also download and share them.
I created 3 listviewers one that opens the file, the second allows to share it and the last allows you to download it. And It looks like this:
But I am looking to put all of this in the same column like this app do:
Does any one know what I have to do create a format like that?
Thanks.
Finally thanks to www.jquerymobile.com and some Taifun's tutorials I could create an interface similar to what I was looking for. I also achive how to recover he index selected by the user. Here I post the jquery code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>0</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.2.0/jquery.mobile-1.2.0.min.css" />

<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.2.0/jquery.mobile-1.2.0.min.js"></script>
<style>
.split-custom-wrapper {
/* position wrapper on the right of the listitem */
position: absolute;
right: 0;
top: 0;
height: 100%;
}
.split-custom-button {
position: relative;
float: right; /* allow multiple links stacked on the right */
height: 100%;
margin:0;
min-width:3em;
/* remove boxshadow and border */
border:none;
moz-border-radius: 0;
webkit-border-radius: 0;
border-radius: 0;
moz-box-shadow: none;
webkit-box-shadow: none;
box-shadow: none;
}
.split-custom-button span.ui-btn-inner {
/* position icons in center of listitem*/
position: relative;
margin-top:50%;
margin-left:50%;
/* compensation for icon dimensions */
top:11px;
left:-12px;
height:40%; /* stay within boundaries of list item */
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div data-role="page">
<div data-role="content">
<div id="searchPickPlace">
<script>
// get the table to display from the window.AppInventor object and split at new line
var urlArray = window.AppInventor.getWebViewString().split("\n");
// split at comma
var doc = document;
var fragment = doc.createDocumentFragment();
document.write('<ul data-role="listview" data-filter="true">');
for(i=0;i<(urlArray.length-1);i++){
j = i + 1; //+1 because app invetor array start at position 1
var rowArray = urlArray[i].split(",");
html = '<li> \
<a id="R_'+j+'" onClick="reply_click(this.id)" href="#">\
<h3>'+rowArray[1]+" "+j+'</h3>\
<p>description</p>\
</a>\
<div class="split-custom-wrapper">\

<a id="S_'+j+'" onClick="reply_click(this.id)" href="#" data-role="button" class="split-custom-button" data-icon="gear" data-rel="dialog" data-theme="c" data-iconpos="notext"></a>\
</div>\
</li>';
document.write(html);
}
document.write('</ul>');
function reply_click(clicked_id)
{
//alert(clicked_id);
window.document.title = clicked_id;
setTimeout(function(){window.document.title = "0";}, 500);
}
</script>
</div>
</div><!-- content -->
</div><!-- /page -->
</body>
</html>
With this code I get this interface:
When you click a button the text label change to the number of the index you have clicked with a prefix depending if you have clicked the main area or the other buttons. The text label only change during less than a secon so if during this time you click again the interface wont recive the click. I think this is work perfect for what I want to do becaus I don't want any one that spam the button but If want an app where you can spam a button you will have to figure it out an other solution.
To do that you will need a clock. In thsi example I have obtained the table from my web site but you can create your own table with a text variable separeting the columns by comas and each line by "\n". I post the app invetor blocks down here:
I am aware that maybe there is a better solution if any one can find it out, I am open to listen new sugestions.
Thanks
