Howto setAssetLocation
epsi nurwijayadi
I've read the thread 'Cannot link my external assets'but still got a
problem.
I think I am missing something foolish but I can't figure out what is
it.
So I struggled with view testing here with code below.
/var/www/n00b/test.php
All using date picker. Date picker shown so I assume clientcide and
moo works well.
[.. Great progress I love it ..]
But still the fancy window do not shown any border.
The border assets only shown in one of four attempt.
[.. One luck is better than none ..]
[OK] file:///var/www/n00b/test.html with http://localhost/n00b/assets
[XX] file:///var/www/n00b/test.html with /assets
[XX] http://localhost/n00b/test.html with http://localhost/n00b/assets
[XX] http://localhost/n00b/test.html with /assets
I'm not always with internet access,
sometimes only slow bandwith,
that's why I need local assets.
I'm totally clientcide n00b. ;-)
Any working solution or clue is helping.
TIA

If your assets directory is located within the n00b directory, the
above line you have uncommented will not work. You would want:
Clientcide.setAssetLocation('assets/');
because assets is not in the root directory of the web server.
However, I also use the DatePicker, and I have "calendar.gif" in the
assets directory. In your case, you would want to put it...
assets/calendar.gif
instead of assets/datePicker/calendar.gif. Try moving that gif and see
if it shows up. Also, check out the "Net" tab in Firebug - it will
show you where it's trying to read files from and failing (in red).
Hope that helps...

Wow... fast answer. Now it works well.
The idea of using "Net" tab in firebug is really helpful.
test.html:
Clientcide.setAssetLocation('/n00b/assets');
joomla::behavior.php:
$assetInit = 'Clientcide.setAssetLocation("'.JURI::root(true).'/media/
assets");';
$document->addScriptDeclaration($assetInit);
Thank you so much for the clue, I remind.

ps. I lookup thefreedictionary.com for the word snip. Now I
understand. It means cut. ;-)

Glad I could help a little. Take note of Aaron's previous email -
that's also a good tip. ;)
