      Description

      SX, by nature, does not have it's own user interface, but when it is busy uploading a captured artifact, it must display something to the user. The SX URL request scheme should be modified to accept a web-based image resource to act as a splash screen in the brief period where SX is busy, and has not returned control to the browser. SX should include a default splash screen that is used if an application-specific resource is not specified.

        Splash page display consists of an image, and an optional indeterminate progress dialog. An optional command part is added to the icemobilesx URL. The syntax of this part is:

        s=[url for image]?dialog=title:message

        dialog is optional, and will not be shown if not included.

        Code for iOS is checked in. The format for the command parameter is:

        s=n1=v1&n2=v2...

        where the value of s is urlencoded. Currently on iOS the only parameter checked is i=imageURL. The easiest way to set this is to define

        ice.mobi.splashImageURL = theURL

        prior to ICEmobile-SX being registered.

        Android can be implemented as follows:

        extract "s" parameter from ICEmobile-SX URL and unescape value. Split value into parts separated by &. Then unescape the values and use the URL passed with the parameter "i" to set the splash image.

        Currently iOS only keeps track of a single splash image, but a future version could include storage of multiple splash images to be displayed when a matching host invoked a command.

        Android implementation complete. Splash screens are cached on a per-url basis. svn 37249.
