I am doing a web application for android and iPhone. My problem is, i want to do refresh the webpage, when user goes to landscape. Since i'm a beginner in javascript i don't know how to do this. please help me
You could use the orientationchange jQuery Mobile event and then do a
window.location.reload();
to refresh the page.
For example:
$(function(){
// Set Inital orientation
// get the initial orientation from window which
// returns 0 for portrait and 1 for landscape
if(window.orientation == 0){
var ori = "portrait";
}else{
var ori = "landscape";
}
changeOrientation(ori);
// Orientation Change
// When orientation changes event is triggered
// exposing an orientation property of either
// landscape or portrait
$('body').bind('orientationchange',function(event){
changeOrientation(event.orientation)
})
// Change the style dependengt on orientation
function changeOrientation(ori){
// Remove all classes separated by spaces
$("#orientation").removeClass('portrait landscape');
$("#orientation").addClass(ori);
$("#orientation").html("<p>"+ori.toUpperCase()+"</p>");
}
});
