I recently created a HTML5 game locally on my PC. Then, I went to the Facebook developer website and created a new application but it asks you about the link to the application.
My application is local and I don't have any hosting website. I tried to upload it via jsfiddle, but they didn't accept it as a valid link. What should I do?
I suggest reading the Getting Started manual on Facebook Help Center, that will get you started very well. Make sure you follow the steps and search for more information there.
You are not able to use JS Fiddle for your Facebook application, you need to have some website to host the application in. There are several cheap (some free) web hosts, which you can use for hosting. It is always better if you can buy your own web domain and host, this way it's guaranteed that it will work.
When you have your domain set up, you create a folder for your application on the FTP server and use the address (e.g. http://example.com/myapp/, https://example.com/myapp/) and place that address into the Canvas URL field on the configuration panel in Facebook Developers site.
The steps on how to continue from now on can be found from the manual linked above. Hopefully this helped you out!

The Azure APIM developer portal (new one) has been edited and now some of the menues dont work.
Is it possible reset the content ?
I have tried the capture.bat (from another APIM instance) and generate.bat into the broken instance but it didnt appear to work - i even made changes to one of the jpg files in the scripts.v3/media directory but it didnt get changed in the portal when i ran generate.
I find the "run your own hosted developer portal" scenario confusing. I am unclear on:
where is the content held for the unpublished managed portal ?
where is the content held for the published managed portal ?
where is the content held for the unpublished "own hosted" portal ?
ie when running locally (npm start on the Github repo code)
where is the content held for the published "own hosted" portal ?
When developing on a self hosted scenario, ideally i think it would be benefitial to hold the content locally so that it could be placed in source control. Failing that, is it possible to customise such that the "run your own hosted developer portal" content is in an accessible location such as a blob in a container on the same storage account that the code is being published to? That way I could copy content from an unbroken APIM into a storage account and develop with that.
Is it possible reset the content ?
Yes. Have you actually tried the simplest solution?
Open developer portal in edit mode:
Click reset content
where is the content held for the unpublished managed portal ?
where is the content held for the published managed portal ?
Same place - in the APIM resources. When you edit developer portal and you save it,
other users won't see those changes until you click publish.
You can also use developer portal revisions, from REST API or directly from Azure Portal. This will give you an opportunity to go back to previous revisions. So if you are publishing manually, after you edit and save developer portal I recommend to go to the revisions tab in azure portal and publish it from there - this way you will have simple version control.
For managed version, important thing to understand is, "content" consists of:
content types and content items which are just json template files describing your pages on developer portal. Those can be accessed by REST API here and here (this is a parent child relation).
and your uploaded custom media (images, fonts etc.) that can be retrieved from APIM Blob Storage. To get SAS URL for APIM Blob Storage and connect to it, just call your APIM Management API with address POST /portalSettings/mediaContent/listSecrets/ - this URL is not documented but you can call it like any other endpoint.
And that's it. That's all you need - json file and media files. The rest is managed for you. And in fact that's what those scripts from github repository are doing. capture.bat for example is downloading all the media and json from developer portal and saves it to your local folder. So you can for example save it to source control or/and upload to another APIM developer portal instance.
When managed developer portal and online editor is not enough for you and you need more customization, like custom widgets etc., you can go with self hosted version. It gives you more freedom but the downside of course is you are responsible for its upgrades.
where is the content held for the unpublished "own hosted" portal ? ie
when running locally (npm start on the Github repo code)
When you run npm start it just runs locally like when you develop any other webpage. In this case it uses webpack-dev-server to host the page.
where is the content held for the published "own hosted" portal ?
Wherever you feel like it. That's the idea behind the self-hosted version. After you are happy with the changes you've made, just run npm run publish and files will appear in dist folder. Then you can upload them to the resource of your choice. This tutorial shows you how to enable hosting of static websites for your blob storage and host your developer portal there. Everything is explained, just follow the article carefully step by step (don't skip any step, every single one is important in order to successfully configure and deploy your self-hosted developer portal). Good luck.
I was trying to export a Google Site I made for a project. I used wget to spider through every page and to download the html files and linked content. When I try to open "index.html" in Chrome, it does open the local HTML file, but it redirects me to the live version immediately after.
Is there anyway I could modify the HTML code so that it won't head straight to the actual website? I just want to have a local copy of it for reference, and I don't want to store it on Drive.
As the HTML file is too big to type out, I have provided it on Pastebin here.
.
You need a better question. No website works offline, or they do if you download all the files to your user’s computer so the user can view it offline. But at some point they had to visit it online to get it.
Or you save it as an html site and hand it to them on a USB drive. That’s offline to that extent. But then it’s not really a website, its an html file.
Or otherwise, if you need a website for your school which can be used by anyone through internet / intranet, you have two options -
1. Create and host a website in an online server
. a. You have to buy space and deploy a server yourself.
. b. They will a run website in their webserver for you. You just need to give money
2. Deploy a webserver in the school's any one machine and get it in other machines.
Rephrase the question for a better answer.
I have a bunch of HTML files that I’ve created for websites.
But my question is how do I get them online or for people to see them? I want to start applying to jobs but nobody can see my work, they're just on my desktop.
You could host your code in GitHub.
Simply sign up, create a new repository per project and push your code up.
Here is a great getting started tutorial for that: https://guides.github.com/activities/hello-world/
Are they raw HTML and CSS files? You will need to FTP them into your host. Filezilla is a great FTP client and you can snag that here:
https://filezilla-project.org/
Purchase some hosting space or for temporary you can get some free hosting account and then use File Manager inside CPanel or use Filezilla, upload your files and check it live. You will need to connect to some domain to your hosting space.
For static websites:
Netlify - https://www.netlify.com
Github pages - https://pages.github.com
Or you can google "free webhosting"
I have an html app, with html, js, css and images, which I need to distribute on a pendrive for Mac and PC. When users open the app, however, they're receiving security errors in their browser.
I'm looking for a simple solution to this, but I can't find any easy way of opening a html app from a pen drive. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT:
You are right The error come from ajax local call to xml files.
Anyone has a solution ?
In reference to question - How can I make local ajax calls to xml files when distributing my html project locally?
The users who are having problems is probably due to the browser they are using and the state the browser was initialised in, as some browsers by default allow local ajax calls to files and some don't.
You have two options.
To your users specify a browser to run it in (for example chrome automatically disallows local ajax calls however if started with the flag --allow-file-access-from-files it will allow this behaviour)
Host the files on a web-server either in the flash drive or externally.
I think I have the solution.
With the mongoose portbla web server, I can launch a small web server without installation on mac an pc.
I just have to find how to put my page as default.
I wish it will help someone with the same problem.
I have an Orchard-based site that contains an some widgets. All my widgets work fine on my local dev instance, but they aren't rendered at all when published on my live site. I've published it directly via FTP copy and via WebMatrix's publish feature. Makes no difference. I don't get any error messages. Anyone know if I'm just needing to tweak a web.config somewhere?
