Web and WebWorks Development

Hi.

I'm developing using the HTML5 APIs both for playbook and BB10.

To access the filesystem I use window.webkitRequestFileSystem, which works fine in Chrome, but in the playbook that property is not defined. 

¿How can I access the HTML filesystem?

Thanks in advance.

Try this when you're setting up your filesystem

window.requestFileSystem  = window.requestFileSystem || window.webkitRequestFileSystem;

 Here's a good tutorial on the HTML5 File API that might come in handy: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/html-css-techniques/toying-with-the-html5-filesystem-api/

Thank you Chad. That's the tutorial I was following.

None window.requestFileSystem || window.webkitRequestFileSystem exists.

The documentation says that there's no need to declare an extra feature in the config.xml... I'm also using the lastest webworks for playbook.

When I run this code in the playbook it fails on the second line, because window.requestFileSystem is undefined.

window.requestFileSystem  = window.requestFileSystem || window.webkitRequestFileSystem;

window.requestFileSystem(window.TEMPORARY, 5*1024*1024, initFS, errorHandler);

¿Is there an example tested in the playbook? The kitchenSink doesn't use this function. I want to use it in order to save private files in the application.

Thanks.
