Hello again'

Have a good day' 

So, I am using ActiveRichTextField object for my application. I think argument of the construction method is required initial value. For instanse :

ActiveRichTextField field = new ActiveRichTextField("http://www.google.com"); // create object

add(field);                                                                                             // Add field

For my application, initial value is too long. So, I need to become this long URL to label.

That is to say, label of "http://www.google.com" is "Google". When I click "Goolge", go to "http://www.google.com" in the browser.

How to solve it ?  Plz help me guys'

Override LabelField class. This class reacts on Trackwheel click.

You may set an arbitrary label, say "Google Inc."  and an arbitrary http link, say: "http://www.microsoft.com"

public class MyLinkField extends LabelField {

   ......  


   private final String httpLink;

   public MyLinkField(String label, String httpLink){
     super();
     setText(label);
     this.httpLink = httpLink;
   }

   
   protected boolean trackwheelClick(int status, int time) {
     // if http link is set
     if (httpLink.length>0) {
      // opening link in browser
      BrowserSession browserSession = Browser.getDefaultSession();
      browserSession.displayPage(httpLink);
     }
   }
}

Tnx for ur response Rafo. It is solution to solve my problem. But BrowserSession is "Signed Class".

Is there any way to solve this problem by NOT using SIGNED classes ?

Tnx man

I am not sure that's possible to solve this task without use of classes which require signing.

It may be a serious obstacle if you're working on an open source project.

In other cases - you may purchase signature keys from RIM (just $20 for unlimited use).

Hello guys'

I researched ActiveRichTextField class. It has a method that named executeBackgroundScan(). I think this method works in background when push on active text displayed on the screen. If it is right, maybe we can work it background of LabelField. I tried to work it, but couldn't do. Because this method is defined by "protected" syntax.

Now I don't know how to solve this problem. Do you have any idea to solve ? 

I haven't good experience for Java programming. And sorry for my bad English.

Tnx in advice'

Launching the browser from a third party application does require the user of signed APIs.  There isn't a way around that requirement.  You'll need to purchase a set of signature keys using the form here:
