However, once i used it and users click on the tab that should go to the HTML page (which is on dropbox) it just says file found at http://dropbox.... etc and you will be directed there automatically.... However its does go there.... ANy ideas on why? I made sure the dropbox link worked by manually typing it into Url bar Title Comments Hello, I am testing on my android device and had used the HTMl doc plugin.

Mr stuck Android Fan Posts: 974 Reg: Apr 09, 2012 Fife, Scotland 15,740	06/17/13 01:02 PM (12 years ago) OK. You could include the doc in your project instead of calling it via URL. Or you could paste the code into a custom HTML screen and set it to allow cached in advance settings. This way it would download from buzztouch on first run and be cached for offline use .

What I did was convert Word Docs to HTML docs and then saved those to dropbox... Comments Hmmm... I have a tonne of files so I dont want to make to put them in the project itself...

Mr stuck Android Fan Posts: 974 Reg: Apr 09, 2012 Fife, Scotland 15,740	06/17/13 01:27 PM (12 years ago) how much MB of data are in the docs? if cached for offline use your app will take up more space on phones memory anyway so may be better to include in project to begin with,but if you want to go the dropbox route then make sure you have a "public" link and not a standard dropbox link in order to make it display the page. unsure how it would cache though? best of luck.

Golfba11 Apple Fan Posts: 95 Reg: Feb 21, 2013 Belllingham 950	06/17/13 01:37 PM (12 years ago) I just figured it would somehow cache because the plugin desription said it would=) There is about 60MB of data in text files, but no one would actually open them all up so if they were cached it wouldnt exceed 50mb... I did make sure I have public dropbox and tested the public URL on Windows IE and Safari... which worked fine Comments I just figured it would somehow cache because the plugin desription said it would=) There is about 60MB of data in text files, but no one would actually open them all up so if they were cached it wouldnt exceed 50mb...
