Hi,
The IDL for platform.showNotification() [1] claims the third parameter
is the URI of an image to be loaded and displayed with the notification.
It works fine with a remote image pulled down over HTTP, but I'd like
it to display an image from the bundle. Is that possible?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Brian

It would be much easier to convert your image into a base64-encoded string and place that in your webapp.js file.
var notifyIconResource = "data:image/png;base64,
platform.showNotification(message, title, notifyIconResource);

Jason,

Wow, is that ugly. But it works, and I can't argue with success!
Thanks for the help!

No problem, I had a similar idea earlier when trying to use multiple local JavaScript files, but I don't think Prism makes it easy to gain access to the bundle's cached location and the files therein.

You can also say resource://webapp/image.png where image.png is a file located in the webapp home directory (the place as webapp.ini).

Ahh - I had hoped there was a simple URI for the bundle directory.
Thanks, that's going to be extremely useful.

Perfect! That's exactly what I was looking for - much cleaner.
