I want to work with the content in the webview (eg. submit a form) - for this, I thought I could do this by embedding some scripts into it. But when I use content_scripts, I get a warning saying 'Content Scripts are allowed only in legacy packaged apps"
I searched about 'Legacy packaged apps' but couldn't find any information about that via google.
Is is possible to insert content scripts into webviews in Chrome apps? or is there any other good alternative solution to get this.
thanks.
Try ExecuteScript rather than content scripts in webviews. It's almost the same as the programmatic-injection kind of content script that you're probably already familiar with.

Do you know any software or tools that can be used to detect when people are stealing content from our website?
Today we are only able the do something about the duplicate content, when we find it manually. There must be some kind of tool or service to use, to detect stolen content?
I'm a part of the project called whocopied.me where you can insert a little javascript snippet and you have a dashboard that helps you with an overview.
We created a little introduction to show it in action

I started looking into OwnCloud app development to add some capabilities I would like to my server. To me it seems like Apps can't modify anything like the Login page or User Management page. Is this the case?
I want to build a user registration app and would love to integrate it into the user management page (if not and it has to exist as its own app page not a big deal). The one big problem I see so far is not being able to add a "Register" link to the login page. I could just go in and add it to the source manually, but I would like to keep the App self contained so others can use it too.
If this is not possible to do in an App I may just need to modify the core application and then see if they will accept my feature addition in a pull request.
Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this for me. I don't want to waste my time trying to figure out how to do it with an App on the platform if it wont be doable.
After a lot of digging around I did figure out a way to do this.
In the App's app.php file, you can force a script to be loaded if the plugin is enabled:
$api->addScript('script_name'); // without .js
In that script jQuery can be used to add the elements to the page where you need them.
This was a good solution for me since I only needed to add a single button to the login page. I can see this being a bad idea if you want to make vast modifications. At that point you might as well just create a separate page that you have full control over.
I downloaded a template and customised it a bit. It's working well but the template has a kind of mobile style sheet. When I open the webpage with the iPhone, it looks great on the homepage. However, on the most important pages I don't want it to appear for mobile I want it to appear like it would on a browser.
I've tried.
Deleting the: style-mobile.css file. - Nothing happened.
Playing around with the style-mobile.css file. - Nothing!
Deleting some js files.
I can't seem to find the code that is telling my iPhone to open the page like an iPhone instead of opening it like a browser.
Where will I find this??
The idea that you can download an arbitrary HTML/CSS/JS(?) template that is designed for mobiles and have it magically adapt to look right in a classic browser window is .... naive.
Either look for a template that is designed to look good in both contexts, or build your own layouts using something like Twitter Bootstrap which is responsive to differences in the display port size.
I am developing an app which has a significant 'reference' section in it. It's information that is very applicable to being created as a set of HTML pages, linking to each other.
I am wondering if anyone knows of a good framework out there to embed HTML pages within an iphone app, to be able to open a specific page by key and any other niceties. The best I've seen so far is CMHTMLView on github.
I know I can load HTML pages directly into a UIWebView, I'm looking to see if there's a framework which does a bit of the boilerplate for for me (e.g. checking for existance of files, be able to cache pages by a keyword, any other niceties like being able to index and search pages). Thanks!

My problem is very similar to the one posted here:
http://www.utteraccess.com/forum/Plotting-Addresses-Maps-t1968130.html
except that thread never found any solutions. Basically, I'm working on an Access form that has a datasheet as a subform. Upon clicking a button on the main form I'm trying to make it so that a browser window opens up and, using the address columns from the spreadsheet data in the subform, plot all the address markers listed. I've looked up a lot of ways to attempt this but I've yet to find a way that seems to work.
I'm not even sure if it's possible to plot multiple markers on Google Maps, but according to research (and after trying it myself) it seems like it isn't, although I don't want to rule it out entirely because I'm still not 100% sure. However I know both Google Earth and batchgeo.com do allow this. I still want to try and do this on Google Maps, but if that doesn't work I want to try to do it using batchgeo.com and if that still doesn't work, then Google Earth (I don't want to make the user download external software if possible).
If it helps, from what I've read API's seem like a useful tool, though I'm not sure how to apply it to an Access form, it seems more like a way to embed to already existing websites.
I'd really appreciate if someone could help me figure out how to approach this problem!
Maybe this would help?

It is Excel but should be translatable.
Here is another example, this time using Access:

You're right. There's no way, that I'm aware of, to embed a Google Maps object in a form (like an ActiveX control). Microsoft MapPoint is a software product that lets you do Map integration by way of an ActiveX control (no need to use HTML and/or javascript).
What I usually do on a project like you're working on is I get my HTML page working the way I want it to, outside and independent of MS Access. You should be able to program and test the HTML file locally without having to use an actual web server. Just use something like NotePad++ or Sublime Text Editor 2 to write your HTML and Javascript and then open the file in your browser to see if it works. I'm quite sure you'll need to use Javascript in your HTML page to make this work. That's what the Google Maps API is all about.
After you have your webpage working, then you will have to go into Access and write code to create that web page on the fly with the address data for the current data set. You can just write it out to the Windows Temp folder and then open your browser control that that web page.
Julian Knight's answer links to more specifics on how to create the HTML page on the fly. It looks like gobble-de-gook, mostly because it is. Outputting HTML/Javascript/CSS from VBA is far less than optimal. This is why you troubleshoot it outside of Access, as much as you can.
