Adobe air html/js - application act like a browser.

I just started in Adobe air html/js . In the current application I want to do something like this .
I want to open the urls/web pages in the application and application should act like a web-browser to them .
But with that I want to modify the opened pages a little, like add some css/js to them.
Something like when you open Web pages in Firefox and a plugin (example grease monkey scripts) modifies the displayed content .
Is it possible ?
I tried opening in iframe it works , but I cannot add my own JavaScript to the page (is there any way in air to remove cross domain strictness?).
Note: Please don't suggest that I fetch the html content of the page and add it to the app body. My app should really act as browser. (Adobe air is webkit based so I think it can be achieved)

Hi,
Thank you for reporting this. The internal bug number for the issue is #2740755. The issue is currently under review and will be investigated by one of AIR team members.

Adobe AIR HTML/JS application and Windows Native Installer

Hi,
I am building an Adobe AIR application with HTML and Javascript and I would like to know how to make an Windows Native Installer.
I am trying to build it with Flash Pro but it keeps returning the error 'Invalid SWF file'. At the application.xml file the <content> points to my index.html file. I don't use any SWF file. When I change this to point to the SWF it does build tha installer but the application loads the SWF.
Is there any way to build a Windows Native Installer and the initial content be an HTML file?
p.s. I tried to extract the files from the installer file and edit the application.xml there to point to the index.html. But I can't repackage the files to a valid air native installer.
Thank you.

Adobe Air - HTML, Javascript and Threading

Hello,
I am developing an application using Adobe Air - HTML and
Javascript. What I am trying to do is to implement threading in
Javascript. I am using implementing threading in Javascript as per
this Neil blog.
Click
Here. It clearly says that this threading works only in Firefox
2.0 and I am trying to use this in with my Adobe Air, but when I
try to refer a function , it gives me error saying "unable to find
it".
I was wondering if this is the best way to go for threading
in Adobe Air HTML application or there is some other way also.
Thanks,
Jaikishan

Hi jjalan,
The yield and generator functionality is only available in
Firefox's javascript execution engine. When you are executing
javascript in AIR, it is done by the webkit and squirrelfish. Take
a look at
http://webkit.org/blog/189/announcing-squirrelfish/
If you can find a javascript library that works on safari /
webkit, chances are high that it may work in AIR.
Also, you can always do pseudo-threading via the age old
setTimeout()

Hi, please forget my last message. I was changing so many things I finished using a wrong mobileprovision. That's why I couldn't install the app in the device.
On the other hand I have found the problem. Some changes in one of our ANE were not tested in iOS 5.0.1 devices and it made the app crash because it found a Adobe Air 3.5 bug. Adobe fixed it in AIR 3.6

The Error Message 'Application descriptor file cannot be parsed' shows when compiling (Ctrl + Enter) Adobe AIR for Android applications on Flash Professional CS5.5

The Error Message 'Application descriptor file cannot be parsed' shows when compiling (Ctrl + Enter) Adobe AIR for Android applications on Flash Professional CS5.5
This is happening for most of the pupils and staff at our school and they are unable to complete their work.
This also happens on a fresh copy of windows and CS5.5 without any updates and also with all latest updates.
I have tried it on 32-bit and 64-bit CS5, Windows, Air and Java with the same error every time.
There are a small minority of users where this works fine for them with no issue.
I have tried re-setting user profiles.
I have tried a local admin and domain admin account with the same issue
I have noticed however that if the file is moved to the shared area it will compile. If it is on their documents area it will not compile. The users have full control in both locations. This is fine for staff but we are unable to give full control or modify access to the shared area for the pupil's
I have been through the online support section and it directed me to phone Adobe Customer care who informed me that all support has been discontinued for CS5, CS5.5 and CS6 and they will only support creative cloud.
Any ideas what to try next? There is no other information about this error and I cannot work out what is causing it.

I have tried and able to package an apk using your XML file.Could you please make sure your XML file starting from line 1 and coloumn 0.Any space will results in the error (Application Descriptor file cannot be parsed)

Adobe AIR HTML Application with Window Shadow

I have been building a HTML based AIR application that uses a transparent window. I want the window to have a drop-shadow effect which using a combination of JavaScript and CSS3 I make the shadow change depending on window focus.
The application looks like the following (wireframe diagram):
The red area is the <html> container itself. The blue box is the application content area (a simple <div>) and the black border with green shadow is a container <div> that is positioned absolute on the page. This black container is the application itself in my design.
As you can see the black border (around the blue box) has a subtle green shadow in the outer edges of the <html> page.
The problem is that because the <html> is the application in AIR it means that the application can never touch the edge of the screen due to the fact that AIR is treating the <html> as the application edge rather than the container <div> for the black border.
Any ideas on how to get around this? The only thing I could think of was some crazy JavaScript that could offset the application somehow.... Anyone else had this problem?

I use this function to center the window on the screen. Could I use any parts of this to perhaps always offset the window to handle the spacing around the chrome div?
function centerWindow(instance){
                    //default bounds of nativeWindow
                    var applicationBounds = instance.nativeWindow.bounds;
                    //determine which screen we're located on
                    var screens = air.Screen.getScreensForRectangle(instance.nativeWindow.bounds);
                    var screenBounds = (screens.length > 0) ? screens[0].visibleBounds : air.Screen.mainScreen.visibleBounds;
                    //get initial position
                    x = (screenBounds.width - applicationBounds.width) / 2;
                    y = (screenBounds.height - applicationBounds.height) / 2;
                    //adjust for offset x or offset y (multi monitors)
                    x = screenBounds.x + x;
                    y = screenBounds.y + y;
                    instance.nativeWindow.x = x;
                    instance.nativeWindow.y = y;

Adobe Air HTML & JS Developing - Slow on massive Image-Tags

Hello,
I want to share a problem i noticed while developing an application with adobe air, based on the HTML & JS Stack, which uses multiple image-tags at the same time. I already mailed a bug but unfortunately did not get a bug number responded to refer to hit here. This post is started because i wanted to share a simple example which exhibits the problem.
The Bug Report i mailed:
******BUG******
Concise problem statement: Performance Issues with massive Image-Tags (scaled)
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Create a simple Air-Application. No need for any Air-specific library we just want the Air-Webkit to render a HTML-Page
2. Load ~130 Pictures with a dimension of approximately 1024 x 768 pixels. Render each of them as a scaled Image-Tag with the dimension 100x60 pixels.
3. Load the Page in the Air/Safari/Firefox/IE Environment (Versions: Air 2.5, Safari 5.0.2 (Win XP), FF 3.6.10, IE7)
4. Try scrolling down/left/right/up and resizing the respective stage
Results: The Air Environment performs worst among those 4. It reacts unacceptably slow while trying to resize and to scroll.
Expected results: similar performance to Webkit-Engine in Safari.
I know of one other discussion which seems to be related to a similar thing (http://forums.adobe.com/message/44913).
The Page i used to compare the Adobe-Air rendering & scroll behaviour against the behaviour of Safari, FF and IE is posted beneath (pretty long due to the excerpt of 131 pictures taken of flicker web service).
with best regards
Robert

Adobe AIR HTML Native Full Screen on Mac OS X

I am building an application in Adobe AIR for Mac in HTML/JavaScript.
What I want to do is when the application loads, make the application go into full-screen mode using the correct native full-screen found in OS X Lion and above.
e.g.
This is NOT using the displayState that Flash/Flex uses.
If the users decides to exit full screen mode they will see the app in a native window and can re-enter full screen mode using the icon you get in the top-right of a window.
I've found some information about an extension here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1209193
FREObject _EnableFullScreenMode(FREContext ctx, void* functionData, uint32_t argc, FREObject argv[])
        //We should be okay to do this, even on 10.6, according to this post:
        //http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/cocoa/311124-implementing-full-screen-for-10-7-but-app-should-also-run-on-10-6.html
        //We can't use [NSApp mainWindow] - didn't appear to work
        //This seems to though:
        NSArray * allWindows = [NSApp windows];
        if (allWindows.count > 0)
            NSWindow *mainWindow = [allWindows objectAtIndex: 0];
            NSWindowCollectionBehavior behavior = [mainWindow collectionBehavior];
            behavior |= NSWindowCollectionBehaviorFullScreenPrimary;
            [mainWindow setCollectionBehavior:behavior];
        //TODO: Return a boolean instead depending on if we found the main window
        return NULL;
That looks to do what I want! But after reading the Adobe AIR docs I can't get my head around where this code should live in my app directory and how I can call it on app load.
So in my index.html I have:
$(document).ready(function() { // Make window full-screen // CALL THE EXTENSION TO MAKE THE APPLICATION FULL_SCREEN // Make window active window.nativeWindow.activate(); // Make it visible window.nativeWindow.visible = true; });
The initialWindow is not visible by default using <visible>false</false> in the application descriptor XML file. And is made visible and active on the document ready as shown above.
The missing piece is loading in the extension and making the window go native full-screen.
To break this question up:
Where does the extension code go? E.g. do I create an extension file and put it in any particular location in the app directory?
How do I then load the extension into the application
Finally how do I then do the full-screen on document ready
What happens in OS X below Lion? How did full-screen work before it was introduced?
Hopefully I can get pointed in the right direction as the docs have totally baffled me and don't explain how the extension file is created (to me at least).

Extensions require both native code and ActionScript code and are packed by the native extension compiler by Adobe to an ANE file. Check this tutorial: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/building-ane-ios-android-pt1.html
After compiling the extension, you can put the extensionId into your <extensions> branch in the application.xml and add the .ane as an excluded library into your AS3 project. Then you can use the extension like any other external library (swc file).
It's also helpful to download and play around with extisting ANEs. There are some nice open source libraries here: https://github.com/freshplanet

Adobe AIR HTML Performance?

I've noticed that Adobe AIR seems to have a set framerate of
some sort for HTML rendering. On the most simple of pages with a
single javascript animation, the animation seems to be limited to
something like 12fps where in other webkit-based browsers such as
Safari and Chrome, the animation is as smooth as you could want it.
Same applies with scrolling and anything else that moves in the AIR
environment. This gives applications a sense of sluggishness.
Has anybody else noticed this? And is there anyway to
increase this framerate lock (if that's what it is)?

It worked. Excellent. I googled
"nativeWindow.stage.frameRate" and a couple of variations but
nothing really comes up. Where is this property documented? Any
good object references you (or anyone else) knows of?

ADOBE AIR for offline applications or Adobe LiveCycle Designer Offline form

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement of recreating the XK01 Customer Master Creation functionality and host it as online application in SAP Netweaver Enterprise Portal. I have done this by creating a Web Dynpro ABAP application and embedding a adobe livecycle designer interactive forms (having same fields as required for Customer Master creation in XK01). In online scenario, the PDF form opens up in browser. In offline scenario, the user can fill up the form and upload the form using UPLOAD button created in the Web Dynpro application. There has been some performance issues like if we have too many dropdown UI elements in the form (having many entries in each), then the form takes too much time to get uploaded.
Can we think of a alternate solution using Adobe AIR desktop application which will enable the user to fill up the form in AIR like User interface. I am new to Adobe Flex and Adobe AIR.
The online scenario perfectly fine with Adobe LiveCycle Designer Forms and SAP ABAP Web Dynpro application. It's offline functionality where its performance hasnt been up to the mark.
Also let me know if Adobe AIR can be used in the offline scenario while ADOBE forms in online scenarion or is it mandatory to have AIR AND FLEX in offline and online scenario respectively.
Please advise.
Regards.
Rohit

hi,do you still need an answer for this question?
Because Adobe flex and air are very good solutions for a offline and online scenario
Kind regards,

Adobe air, html, unicode

Hi,
I am trying to have Adobe AIR application to show some
non-english languages. I am using the following HTML code within
the body to show this character. It works correctly when i open
this file directly on IE or Firefox.
<p>a ആ b</p>
But when i run it as AIR application, I only see the english
letters. How do I make this unicode character appear.
Thanks
Binu

Hi jjalan,
The yield and generator functionality is only available in
Firefox's javascript execution engine. When you are executing
javascript in AIR, it is done by the webkit and squirrelfish. Take
a look at
http://webkit.org/blog/189/announcing-squirrelfish/
If you can find a javascript library that works on safari /
webkit, chances are high that it may work in AIR.
Also, you can always do pseudo-threading via the age old
setTimeout()

Suitability of Adobe AIR / HTML /JS

I have a task to built a simple Digital signage system which will display different kind of information on LCD panels.
I am not sure if Adobe AIR with HTML / Javascript would be a good choice for the desktop part of this application, which will be responsible for displaying the content. The logics could be easily solved and coded in Javascript and the app should run for a long time. The backend application for managing content will be web based.
Maybe it would be better to use FLex instead. What do you think?
Thanks for any recommendations.

Retina support for Adobe AIR HTML

Hi,
I was suprised to find there's no retina display support for Adobe AIR (3.9).
Macs with retina displays have been around for quite some time now.
This is a crucial feature as I will not be able to use my application on my retina display.
A bug report has been opened here: https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=3662094
Thanks.

Hi Jeffrey,
This is indeed an issue with the HTML control, however the StageWebView(true) control does support retina devices. Is it possible for you to use this instead?

What is Adobe AIR HTML based development

Hi All,
I am a newbie in flex development. What is the difference between MXML based development and HTML based Development ?
Appreciate your answers.
Thanks,
Amit

http://www.adobe.com/products/air/faq.html
Adobe AIR is a cross-operating-system runtime that lets developers combine HTML, JavaScript, Adobe Flash® and Flex technologies, and ActionScript® to deploy rich Internet applications (RIAs) on a broad range of devices including desktop computers, netbooks, tablets, smartphones, and TVs. AIR allows developers to use familiar tools such as Adobe Dreamweaver®, Flash Builder®, Flash Catalyst®, Flash Professional, or any text editor to build their applications and easily deliver a single application installer that works across operating systems.
This program is required in order to run our media downloader that is used to archive files from Photoshop.com.
