I am trying to open a webpage in Windows 8 XAML with the following Frame Tag.
<Frame
Source="http://medievaltvg.freeoda.com/"
/>
I get the following error from Visual Studio:
Unknown member 'Source' on element 'Frame.'
The compiler tells you, that there is no member Source on the Frame-control.
This is not what Windows.UI.Xaml.Frame is intended for.
From MSDN.
You use the Frame control to support navigation to Page controls. You create
as many different pages as needed to present the content in your application
and then navigate to those pages from the frame. To navigate from the frame,
you call the Navigate method and pass in the type of the page to navigate to.
You can also pass in a parameter object to initialize the page to a particular state.
What you are looking for is the WebView-Control.

Are there any Documentum Webtop developers on here that know how to launch the DocList component within a simple container such as dialogcontainer ? I'm trying to implement some custom functionality for one of the screens in my Webtop-based application so that when the user clicks on the link for a folder, the DocList component is invoked to display the contents, then after the user is done looking at them, she can click the OK button provided by the container to return to the previous screen...
I've tried a couple different ways to do this. My first attempt was to use a dmf:link tag to call a new component I defined called doclistcontainer to contain the doclist component. My second attempt was to use a dmf:actionlink tag that called an action I defined which executes doclist within a container. In both cases, I end up with a blank screen, generic title, the OK button doesn't do anything... When I run a debugger on the code, I can see that the DocList behavioural class is being called despite the blank screen being displayed. What am I doing wrong?

(Sitefinity 6.x)
I am trying to create an image slider where each image in the page links to an internal or external page. I created a separate library for all the images that I want to show on the slider then using custom MVC widget I display the images in a slider.The problem that I have is there is no place in the image where I can link the image to open an existing internal page or external website.
Is there a way to add a properties to the original Image properties? so that users can select a page (using some sort of page selector just like in the navigation widget) or type in external page to link. If that is not possible, could you give me some ideas how to implement this?
I've been creating image rotators using Module Builder in Sitefinity. What you could do is go to Administration -> Module Builder -> Create a Module, call it Image Slider, call the content type Slide. Add a couple fields, for the first call it Image and select Media for the type, this will use an image selector for the interface, then add another field called Link and use Short text for the type, this will hold the url. Unfortunately, Sitefinity doesn't include a Page Selector control as an available field yet so a text field will have to do. Save and activate your module, it will show up under Content -> Types of Content. Go ahead and add a few slides. Sitefinity has created a couple of widgets when you created the module, so if you edit a page, you'll see them under the "Content" widget section, probably at the bottom. Drag it on the page and set it to use the list template. Now open up the Sitefinity Explorer window in their Thunder Visual Studio plugin, under Common Widget Templates, you'll see an Image Slider folder, you'll want to edit the list template since you'll be outputing all the slides into some carousel markup or something. From here you can use the default Sitefinity image control and bind the link to a hyperlink that wraps the image control, this will link each image to whatever is in that field.
Hope that helps.
I have found how to load the local html page in Webview XAML Control
Visit winrt: load local html and its resources in webview
What i am unable to find is how to access the HTML DOM Object of the Webview Control
I am developing a C# metro style windows 8 application,i want to capture the user signature,since there is no control yet in winrt xaml for that,i am trying to do that using JQUERY
My SignatureCpture is loaded in the webView,after the user has finished signing i need to read the signature,for which i have to access the HTML DOM of the WebView
I have some hidden field in the Page,i need to use document.getElementByID('') to get the value and store it in database
please refer to this sample code in MSDN Code Gallery: XAML WebView control Sample. In the 5th scenario, it demonstrates how to access the html dom.
The MSDN Documentation explains when to call WinJS.UI.processAll() yourself in your apps and when it's done for you automatically:
If you aren't using the Blank Application template or if you're adding
the control to a page that you created yourself, you might need to add
a call to WinJS.UI.processAll.
If you added the control to your app's home page (which is usually the default.html file), add a call to WinJS.UI.processAll in your onactivated event handler, as shown in the previous example.
If you added the control to a Page control, you don't need to add a call to WinJS.UI.processAll because the Page control does that for you automatically.
If you added the control to another page that is not your app's home page, handle the DOMContentLoaded event and use the handler to call WinJS.UI.processAll.
What's the reasoning behind the system calling WinJS.UI.processAll() automatically for you inside Page Controls, but not elsewhere?
It's also because the Navigation template (and the Grid template which is derives from the Navigation template) includes at least one data-win-control element so it needs to be processed to function.
We (Microsoft) don't want to put too much in the blank project template because after all it is "blank". So the blank project template just gives you the single page, no navigation, no controls, and thus no need for any processing. You can decide to add that on your own.
I've got a MainPage.xaml page a Detail.xaml page.
I've passed variables to the Detail.xaml from MainPage.xaml by using a static variable and referencing it in Detail.xaml (the detail page is acting like a dialog). However once I've updated the content of another object, I want to call a method in MainPage.xaml to refresh the content of that page using the updated object from the Detail.xaml page.
I assume I am not using the correct paradigm for this and should probably be using MVVM or something but I'm not familiar with the implementation and was hoping there was a simple way to do this?
Can you load the content from the static into your control in the OnNavigatedTo?
You can make a method in your main page to do that job and call that.
