Invalid PNG Image file: iDOT doesn't point to valid IDAT chunk - html

I have some HTML content pages in an app and I'm using a UIWebView to display them. Some of these pages have a PNG image in them that is generating the following message in the debug console in xcode:
ImageIO: PNG invalid PNG file: iDOT doesn't point to valid IDAT chunk
The image still displays and looks correct. Also this only happens when I run the app on an iPad (3rd generation). My iPhone 4 doesn't display this message.
My first thought was that it was caused by a ~ character in the filename (I've added the ~ipad tag to the filename). However, removing the ~ character doesn't have any effect.
I've done a google search but I only get 3 results. 2 of them are in Chinese that doesn't seem to be translated well by Google's translater. The other results seems to be someone with the same issue as me, but no responses to his post.

Had the same problem. Solution:
use "color sync utility" which is a standard program, you can load from launchpad. Open the png file and save it with the utility.

'cleaning' the project (xcode menu path : product -> clean) solved this exact issue for me.
Resaving the .png with a new name did not.
Image did appear in the simulator but not on the test device (ipod touch 5th gen.)
Very large image 4000 x 4000

Strangely, I had the exact same issue just about an hour ago. I didn't find a particular reason for why it was failing, but I think I was able to "fix" the image to make it display properly and not throw an error.
I just opened it in Preview and exported a new PNG file from the source. Once I replaced the bad image in my project file with the newly created one, I cleaned, compiled and it worked as expected.
Hope it's as easy as that for you...

You may want to check you don't have another file with the same name in another directory. That is what caused this error for me .. (duplicate Default.png)

I had the same problem with my app.It turn out that the images that the user was uploading to my server and edited with php +imagemagik where striped out.I was using the following command to edit the uploaded image:
convert $uploadfile -resize 300x300 -quality 30 -strip $uploadfile
When i removed the -strip parameter the error was disappeared !

Same problem here.
1 - Close XCode;
2 - Open the image in Photoshop;
3 - Re-save ( replace the same image ) with 80% quality;
4 - Open XCode, clean it CMD + SHIFT + K;
5 - Build it in your device again;
Very simple and work for me.
And for you ?

How do I make local HTM files communicate, and avoid cross domain communication errors?

I have am HTML based manual. It was designed for and works in IE7 and below. It is installed locally on a computer (not web server based, only local), but I need to make changes that conform to changes in rules for Chromium based web browsers. Parts of the book work, but other parts fail. I can not use any scripts/techniques that would alter any standard security settings.
Primary issues are it has links for graphics and tables that launch a "container" html that is supposed to display them. But all that shows up is the blank shell "container" without the content. Console error messages for figures show errors occuring on lines with "document.write" functions being called out and issues with "cross-window communication". I am unclear if the tables are failing for the same reason since no console errors are being displayed. I added " --allow-file-access-from-files --allow-file-access --allow-cross-origin-auth-prompt" to the shortcuts for Chrome/Edge and the figures began displaying correctly, but the tables still failed.
My background is not as a javascript coder, and I have slightly beyond basic html editing skills. The scripts currently inuse were written by a javascript programer before he moved on and I am being instructed to make the transition. Im sure im not explaining something correctly since this is above my head, but if anyone can help on this, it would be greatly appreciated.
the links inuse for figures are:
onClick="figureWindow('fig.png', 'fig title')
the script in the resources folder:
function figureWindow(imgURL, imgName) {
settings = 'resizable=1,width=1010,height=800,left=10,top=35,titlebar=yes'
newName='Fig'+Math.floor(Math.random()*1001);
openwin = window.open('../../../resources/FigWin.htm?loc=' + imgURL + "?doc=" + imgName, newName, settings);}
the links inuse for tables are:
onClick="javascript:tableWindow('table 1.txt')
the script in the resources folder:
function tableWindow(tableURL) {
settings = 'resizable=1,width=1010,height=600,left=10,top=115,titlebar=yes'
myname = 'table_' + Math.floor(Math.random() * 1001);
openwin = window.open('../../../resources/TableWin.htm?loc=' + tableURL, myname, settings);}
(basic breakdown of manual structure)
->Root
-->Manual
---->Chapter 1 (Folder and Displayed html TOC)
------>Tables (folder Inside Chapter 1 folder)
------<Table 1 (Txt file with contents)
------<Table 2 (Txt file with contents)
------<Table 3 (Txt file with contents)
----<Page 1 (html page to be displayed and read)
----<Page 2 (html page to be displayed and read)
----<Page 3 (html page to be displayed and read)
---->Figs (Folder for all graphics to be displayed from Pages)
-->Resources Folder
---->CSS
---->Scripts
--<Fig Container (Inside Resources folder, supposed to get graphic filename and text coded on the Page)
--<Table Container (Inside Resources folder, supposed to get table filename coded on the Page)

View source code started to show all code in 1 line , how to change it?

On the screen you can see that all html code started to be shown in 1 line, but in the past it was shown as general html, how can I change it ( google chrome ) ?
view-source:http://localhost:5000/en/promo/
This is minified HTML, produced in order to reduce file size. You can convert this back to "normal" via any of the various unminifiers/beautifiers found online such as https://beautifier.io.

Downloading a web page with AutoIt is not working correctly

I'm trying an AutoIt script which uses the "Save As" download dialog from a web browser and gives a new name to the page downloaded. The page downloads correctly, but the problem is that it can't rename it, so the default name is used. I used the script whit IE, Chrome and Firefox but none of them worked.
Script:
WinWaitActive("Save As","","20")
If WinExists("Save As") Then
ControlSetText("Save As","","Edit1",$CmdLine[1])
ControlClick("Save As","","&Guardar")
EndIf
Example
When I run it with "script.exe newname", the page should be downloaded as "newname", not "AutoIt simple example bla bla...." (default name)
EDIT: Same code works with notepad save dialog, but It doesn't work on any browser.
Also, I'm not using InetGet because that only downloads plain HTML. I need the complete page with css and images.
EDIT2: I also tried this from java using AutoItX4java but that neither worked.
First, you are missing the WinSearchChildren option. Save/Open file dialogs are children dialogs.
Also no need to &Guardar string. that will make your script depend on the system language.
Here is the working code
#RequireAdmin ;Will give your script a permission elevation (sometimes its needed)
Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 4) ;1=start, 2=subStr, 3=exact, 4=advanced, -1 to -4=Nocase
Opt("WinSearchChildren", 1) ;0=no, 1=search children also
WinWaitActive("Save As","","20")
If Not #error Then
ControlSetText("Save As","","Edit1",$CmdLine[1])
ControlClick("Save As","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]")
EndIf

"Template:!" output from imported MediaWiki template (Infobox)

I am quite new to Mediawiki and am trying to get infoboxes work.
I managed to get a simple one working but am now trying to get the 'Infobox video game' one working.
I am getting the following errors:
Template:!- style="" Template:! Developer(s) || Peter Harrap, Shaun Hollingworth Template:!- style="background: #F0F0F0;" Template:! Publisher(s) || Gremlin Graphics
The page is www.retroresource.co.uk/mediawiki
To try and solve this myself I have been to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Export
and entered in:
Template:Infobox
and
Template:Infobox video game
into the box, ticked all boxes, done a find a replace on replace text/plain with CONTENT_FORMAT_TEXT
I have imported the file through special imports.
I have also copied in the default CSS MediaWiki:Common.css into my own wiki.
What am I missing?
Thanks
You are missing Template:!. MediaWiki 1.24 removed the need for that template, but you are still on version 1.23
You can either update your wiki to 1.24 or add this in Template:!:

I have a public URL for an iCloud file, how can I get the DIRECT link to download in iOS?

I am able to generate public URLs for iCloud files. e.g. https://www.icloud.com/documents/dl/?p=3&t=BAKsXkcDP-p8sdTS8NgBLWRQxE281oe4hogA
Accessing such a URL from a browser, I see a landing page, and shorty afterwards the file downloads automatically. Fine.
However, I want to be able to download this file from my iOS app (with NSURLConnection). How can I do this? Maybe...
a) process the html headers to somehow determine the direct URL?
b) intercept the redirect/refresh that triggers the download on a browser?
c) somehow imitate a browser in order to trigger a download?
Thanks
PS. please give me the idiot's answer- I'm clueless about html etc.
Here is the html response I'm getting for the indirect URL above:

As of July 2012, the following seems to work. But there's no guarantee that apple won't change their scheme for generating these, and it's possible that they would regard this as a private API and reject your app. So use at your own risk.
The URL has two important parameters, p and t. The first seems to identify a server, while the second identifies the actual file. The direct download link is made by plugging these values into this URL:
https://p[p]-ubiquityws.icloud.com/ws/file/[t]
Looking at your example:
https://www.icloud.com/documents/dl/?p=3&t=BAKsXkcDP-p8sdTS8NgBLWRQxE281oe4hogA
p is 3, and t is BAKsXkcDP-p8sdTS8NgBLWRQxE281oe4hogA. So your direct download link would be
https://p3-ubiquityws.icloud.com/ws/file/BAKsXkcDP-p8sdTS8NgBLWRQxE281oe4hogA
Whenever I've published a link to iCloud, p has been 01; so it's possible that you might need to zero-pad your value in which case your URL would be
https://p03-ubiquityws.icloud.com/ws/file/BAKsXkcDP-p8sdTS8NgBLWRQxE281oe4hogA
It would be great to know whether that's necessary.
In iCloud Drive / iOS8 the links are different, but you can still get a direct link to the files.

Save the text between '?u=' and '&uk=' as a NSMutableString
Save the information after 'uk=' and 'f=' as NSStrings
In the first string replace the text '${f}' with the 'f=' string and replace the text '${uk}' whith the 'uk=' string
If you need the files size for any reason, it's the number after 'sz=', but this is not needed for the final link
