The
HTMLLoader
class
serves as the container for HTML content in Adobe® AIR®. The class
provides many properties and methods for controlling the behavior
and appearance of the HTML content. In addition, the class defines
properties and methods for such tasks as loading and interacting
with HTML content and managing history.
The
HTMLHost
class defines a set of default
behaviors for an HTMLLoader. When you create an HTMLLoader object,
no HTMLHost implementation is provided. Thus when HTML content triggers
one of the default behaviors, such as changing the window location,
or the window title, nothing happens. You can extend the HTMLHost
class to define the behaviors desired for your application.
A default implementation of the HTMLHost is provided for HTML
windows created by AIR. You can assign the default HTMLHost implementation
to another HTMLLoader object by setting the
htmlHost
property
of the object using a new HTMLHost object created with the
defaultBehavior
parameter
set to
true
.
The HTMLHost
class can only be extended using ActionScript. In an HTML-based
application, you can import a compiled SWF file containing an implementation
of the HTMLHost class. Assign the host class implementation using
the
window.htmlLoader
property:
<script src="HTMLHostLibrary.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></script>
<script>
window.htmlLoader.htmlHost = new window.runtime.HTMLHostImplementation();
</script>
