Pass variable from HTML to XML

Andrew

Hi,
I'm attempting to pass a variable from html to xml, but I'm not having much success. I call the html with a query string containing my variable like this:

Code

http://website.com/index.html?viewmode=external

index.html contains this code for setting up the pano:

Code

<script type="text/javascript">
   var swf = createswf("krpano.swf");
   swf.addVariable("xml","pano.xml");
   swf.passQueryParameters();
   swf.embed("pano");
</script>

pano.xml contains code in an action to trace the value of the variable when a hotspot is clicked:

Code

<action name="tracelog">
   trace('viewmode=',viewmode);
   showlog();
</action>

The log just shows "viewmode=viewmode". I'm not using kprotect. Any ideas?

Andrew

I should add, I just need some way of passing a variable externally to the pano XML. Perhaps there is an alternative you can think of?

cheers,
Andrew

try: trace('viewmode=',get(viewmode));

Andrew

Thanks Zephyr. That returns null.

http://www.krpano.com/forum/wbb/inde…d&threadID=3500 . That might help. That thread is about passing the parameters from the url to the xml file with javascript.

Hi,

Based on KrPano "js-getlink", Have a look on

KrPano Post "Direct access from email"

I was lucky with this solution until the latest krpano version:

Code

<script type="text/javascript">


	var swf = createswf("krpano.swf");
	swf.addVariable("xml","srebrenica_pillar-of-shame1_berlin-2010_4000h.xml");
	swf.addVariable("startPano", "start");
	swf.embed("krpanoDIV");


</script>

With the new Krpano, the HTML looks a bit different, and it seems that this does not work (startPano is now NULL). Any solution for this as well?

Code

<script>
		embedpano({swf:"hauptdeck_buffetlift_2.swf", xml:"hauptdeck_buffetlift_2.xml", target:"pano", startPano:"start"});
	</script>

Hi,

the code is correct and should work, the swf.passQueryParameters();

call should pass all given parameters to variables...
do you have a link to the not working example?

you can still use the old createswf() function,
the embedpano() is just an additional simplified single-line function when not parameters or further settings are needed, custom parameters can't be used with it,

see here for more details about the functions and their usage:

edit: I succeeded using this code now, thank you for pointing me to the right function:

Code

<body>


	<script src="panoramaname.js">
	</script>


<div id="pano" style="width:100%; height:100%;">
	<noscript>
...
	</noscript>


<script>
  var viewer = createPanoViewer({swf:"panoramaname.swf",target:"pano"});
  viewer.addVariable("xml", "panoramaname.xml");
  viewer.addVariable("my_own_variable_name", "my_own_variable_value");
  viewer.embed();
</script>


</div>


</body>
