createWebAppFiles.sh is corrected now and I re-created several dictionaries for the WebApp. Everything should be ok now.

Please let us know if there is still any dictionary which does not work correctly - we appreciate your testing !

Regards,
Gert

There was an 'deficiency' with the script createWebAppFiles.sh for handling multilingual dictionaries. I updated the script, but I need to do some more testing.

We will tell you when the dictionaries are repaired.

Thank you very much for pointing out the problem :)

Gert

In English ... ;)

The link http://dictionarymid.sourceforge.net/WebApp/dictionaries/dictionary EngGer (freedict)/  does not work, because in the folder the symbolic links to the PHP files (and .htaccess) are missing. [...]

Stefan, thank you for that bug report :)

I will check with V.P. Guru to see what went wrong there.

Greetings !
Gert

Edit: Just fixed the link.

I did read that there is a new version of Windows Mobile 8.1 and that there is an updated IE included which is supposed to improve HTML5 compatibility. I am confident that this IE update will resolve the issue on Windows Mobile.

Please keep us updated once you receive that update - thanks a lot !

Guess that should mean that IE 11 does implement overrideMimeType: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/dn448456(v=vs.85).aspx ; or not ? Well that description is really not clear for me. At least the Windows IE 11 does implement overrideMimeType.

Besides, long term I plan to replace overrideMimeType: when I change to web workers. But that will take quite some time, cause web workers do not provide multithreading as Java does (described here: http://dictionarymid.sourceforge.net/forum/index.php?topic=285.msg1534#msg1534). I will have to do some substantial redesign due to the restrictions of web workers.

Guess Microsoft will soon provide an updated version of the IE for Windows Phone ? That should solve all problems.

Best greetings,

Problems / DfM WebApp on Windows Phone 8.1
19. July 2014, 08:25:56
We did receive a report, that on a Windows Phone 8.1 there is a message that the html5 overideMimeType is not supported. This message does mean that the dictionary files, which are locally stored on the device in the html5 application cache, cannot be read, i.e. translations will not work.

The DfM WebApp runs nicely since version 11 of the Internet Explorer; Internet Explorer versions prior to 11 (e.g. Internet Explorer 9 and Internet Explorer 10) had a poor support for HTML5 and the DfM WebApp does not run on those older Internet Explorer versions.

What version of Internet Explorer is running on Windows Phone 8.1  ?

Gert

For me, all important points are included in your planning :)

Best greetings,

P.S.: I am sure that over time there will be more wishes  ;)

Fantastic - all download pages are updated to include the WebApp download !!

And also the app. now it shows percentage complete for the app cache - how did you do this ? I need to look this up in the source code !

One thing that I missed is a sort of warning for download volumes.

I am glad to see the WebApp making good progress :)

With best greetings,

Here the quick output from some redirecteced commands ... I managed to execute these from Android via ssh ...

http://dictionarymid.sourceforge.net/tmp/listOfWebAppDictionaries.txt  ( ls )

http://dictionarymid.sourceforge.net/tmp/sizeOfWebAppDictionaries.txt (du -s * )

Any other lists that would help you ?

Haha, that is really 'great' !

Is there already a further improved version that runs well ? When there is, just let me know and I will look at it.

:)

Dear Starssoft,

I just tested point 3 with both dictionaries: after the download is complete the status downloading/progress is still shown. I will try to send a screenshot. Only after refreshing the page from the browser (clicking on the reload-button of the browser) idle/noupdate is shown correctly.

I had not been able to reproduce point 2. I will keep trying to reproduce it.

Oh, you write "we've added alert for flatrate (before caching the app)". That indeed would be a great feature !! Should it already be there in your test versions ? I did not see any alert message.

With best greetings,
Gert

Wow, you are fast :)

I should be able to do some more testing during the next days ... it it motivating to do testing and getting updates so quickly ;)

About 2. and 3.: that happened with my Android device with Chrome; I will test again during the next days.

Say, what do you mean be 'permanent' solution ? My understanding is that you would need an internet connection to provide updated information, no ?

And, I just looked at your code quickly: in order to prepare for the content security, would it be possible that you push out the event handlers from html ? As described here: http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/security/content-security-policy/  in the section "inline code considered ...". This is really not high priority, just that in the end I think it would be a good idea to activate the content security policy with script-src 'self'.

With best greetings !

Here my quick feedback (written mobile):
1. the multilingual dict shows a "50" window after each typed letter.
2. The option pane did continuously open and close while downloading the dict.
3. The bilingual dict kept showing downloading even after a while. When restarted it showed idle, so I guess the downloading did not get correctly updated.
4. In the cache manifest, in my opinion the network * should get removed. There should not be a network access after download is complete. ah, wait, you need that for your rss access !? Ok, then now i understand. Is ok then. Well, can that rss access be sitched off ? I would not like to get a bill from my telecom provider, when I use the webapp abroad. Hmmm, well, I probably could do that best by switching off my network access. I have to think more about that.
Anyway, could the * be replaced with the dictionarymid.sourceforge.net which serves the feed ? I would not like do have downloads from non-dfm sites. Where do you store your rss data ?

Regards,
Gert

Dear V.P. Guru,

great to know that you are continuously making progress ! I just tested and it works for me as you describe.

One remark: I had to manually delete the application cache (before I did do so, the old version was used). I did read that by changing for example a version number in the cache manifest such an update will be done automatically: see http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/appcache/beginner/, section "Updating the cache", point 2.

For example, in cache_mini_hmi_files.manifest you could change
# Version 1
to
# Version 2
(or maybe putting a date or something else)

With best regards,
Gert

Dear Stars Soft,

Fanstastic to know that you are making progress on the WebApp !!

So I will be keen to throw all my improvement requests on you ;)

Here a few first points:

  • Great :) :)
  • The "Application Cache" status is not updated; well, I know that this was not an area where you made your improvements; I still think this should go on the 'to be fixed' list. Also, the field "Application Cache Events" is empty.
  • When you change the translation direction, I think it would be convenient if the translation gets re-executed. Well only my personal feeling; others my prefer to hit the Translation button. Hmmm, with the incremental search (or instant search) acivated, is there still a need for the Translation Button ?
  • This is also not related to the update that you made, I still wanted to mention it: the yellow line at the bottom is 'overwritten' with the translation results, when there are many results.

Expect more improvements requests to come from me  8)

Best regards,
Gert
