Hello so I was trying to include a sketch in my html page using the two lines below, but it didn't work:
<script src="processing-1.4.1.min.js"></script>
<canvas data-processing-sources="hello-web.pde"></canvas>
Of course I made sure to put all the files in the same directory. I already did some sketches that are working fine in Processing software downloaded from processing.org. So I basically followed the instructions here: http://processingjs.org/ and created a hello-web.pde file that contains the setup and draw functions. I keep hearing about web server but I don't really knowwhat to do? any suggestions please.
Processingjs doesn't work in chrome. Chrome has disabled some features which it requires. Try with Firefox!
If that's not the case, it could be something in ur pde file.
ProcessingJS on Chrome works fine for me.
First thing you need to do is:
create a local server using
Mamp
Set your root path.
run your HTML page like so:
localhost:myPort/myHMTLPage.html
(eg. localhost:8000/index.html)
My company has a web application that outputs a PDF which we print on label paper (stickers with product data).
Chrome is the default browser around here. Unfortunately, when we try to print from Chrome the "Fit to Page" checkbox is automatically selected. This screws up the alignment and prints data in the wrong places. If we uncheck 'Fit to Page', it prints perfectly on all machines.
If I skip the Chrome Print dialog and use the system one, it works fine on a Mac, but poorly on Windows machines.
I would really like a way to disable the "Fit to Page" option.
What I've looked at:
Printing Avery 5160 labels with FPDF - I added /ViewerPreferences << /PrintScaling /None >> to my pdf, but this article Set PDF to print with no scaling says that it's controlled by the application (Chrome in my case).

https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=158752 --not helpful
So I'm afraid that I may need to find or make a Chrome extension to do this. Before I dig into that, does anyone know if it's even possible?
Other Facts:
PDF is being generated by fpdf in php. All computers should be using latest vs of Chrome.
I hate to say this but, could you try opening the PDF in a different browser, or use a standalone PDF reader application?
Since the Chromium team has labelled this as a WontFix, Chrome simply might not suffice for your needs.
I've used third party software to create virtual tour for my clients website. It works perfectly fine on its own, you can see it here http://freshbeer.lv/development/en/virtual_tour/virtual_tour.html
But Once I include virtual_tour.html page on my index page it doesn't work, you can see it here http://freshbeer.lv/development/en
I'm confident that I changed all paths to files correctly, but still it doesn't work. However I can see Gray box that should contain virtual tour, but it doesn't display it, I'm really confused, could anyone please suggest what can be causing the problem?
The path to your SWF is wrong. The page tries to load it from the same folder where index.html is located. You can easily see this if you use web developer tools, e.g. in Safari (Activity Window) or Firebug's "Net" view.
I am the developer of a webapplication.
Chrome displays my Javascript-and-AJAX-generated webpages correctly, but when I try and print them (via its native function) I get a blank page.
Printing works just fine on other browsers.
I have tried and print server-side-generated pages with Chrome and they get printed fine.
What can be wrong on the webpages of my web application? I think the issue is that those pages are dynamically generated by Javascript and AJAX.
I am saying that because I have just found out that I can't even save those pages correctly with Chrome (all the dynamic HTML is not shown).
I am on Google Chrome 13.0.782.112.
How can I debug and fix this issue?
Is there any workaround?
Is anybody managing to get dynamic-generated content printed with Google Chrome?
This problem is driving me crazy!
P.S.: some of my users are reporting the same problem on Safari :-(
UPDATE: upgraded to Chrome 14.0.835.202 but the issue is still there...
I've had exactly the same problem, though not in Chrome (although I didn't actually test with Chrome). On certain browsers (and I cannot remember which ones offhand - but it was either in IE or FF), any content that is added into the DOM by JavaScript is not printed. What is actually printed is the original document that was served to the browser.
I successfully solved this using the following JavaScript function:
function docw()
{
var doct = "<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN\"
\"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd\">";
document.write(doct + document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].innerHTML);
}
This is called when JavaScript page manipulation has finished. It actually reads the entire DOM and then re-writes the whole document back into itself using document.write. This is now enabling printing for my particular project on both IE and FireFox, although I'm pretty sure one of those did already work in the first place, and the other one didn't (can't remember which from memory, and it's not a project I can pull out to test at the moment). Whether this will solve the problem in Chrome I don't know, but it's worth a try.
Edit Terribly sorry, but I'm a complete pleb. I just re-read my old comments and this solution had nothing to do with printing; it was actually to fix a problem where only the original served document would be saved when saving to file. However, that said, I still wonder if it's worth a shot.
This helped me with a related problem - how to view/save dynamically generated HTML itself. I came up with the following bookmarklet.
javascript:(function(){document.write('<pre>'+(document.getElementsByTagName('html')[0].innerHTML.replace(/&/g,'&').replace(/</g,'<').replace(/>/g,'>'))+'</pre>')})()
I run this and 'select all' / copy, and then (in Linux) do 'xclip -out' to direct the large amount of clipboard data to a file.
Trevor's answer totally worked for me- with jquery I simply did something like
$("html").html $("html").html()
worked perfectly
I need to create a brochure-cd from a website I did. All resources are html, images and xml, so i don't have any problem at all in accessing file system. My question is: once I open my index.html page in browser, how can I set the params of the window (eg: show addressbar, show statusbar, etc)
Thanks
(If you have an alternative idea of how run an html based brochure on CD just let me know)
EDIT: Specs changed, I've just knewn I must write xml and upload file, too. Any idea? I'm considering Adobe Air, but would be amazing if I can compile a whole .NET website into an exe..... Anything similar?
The only way you can set these is when you open the page, not after it's already present. So, you will probably have to have a start page, which then opens your new page, with the parameters you want.
Be warned though, if you have any JavaScript, many browsers won't allow scripts to run locally, or will present a nasty warning message before it will execute.
You may look into having a small desktop application on the CD that launches an instance of a browser inside of itself, assuming you can run the browser on every machine this will be run on. This will probably give you the look you're after.
I think you can't. You can only set params of a window you create. So you'll have to run a script on load that creates a new window and then closes the initial window.
There is however no way that this script is executed without warnings, if at all.
An alternative would be to develop an executable that is able to display the page, but that might not be easy, especially when you want to be browser and platform independent.
