YouTube API Caller Other Media Phase Two Iframe Tutorial

YouTube API Caller Other Media Phase Two Iframe Tutorial

YouTube API Caller Other Media Phase Two Iframe Tutorial

Yesterday’s YouTube API Caller Other Media Phase Two Interfacing Tutorial featured the use of …

  • popup windows … much maligned … so if there is a way we can transfer to the less maligned …
  • iframe

… keeping the work within the one window, that would be good, yes? Happily, yes is the go, and with little bother too, with referencing code structure like …


function feedoff(intr, compduris, comptitleis) {
var iqw=0;
if (window.parent != window.self) {
if (window.parent.window.opener) {
//alert('vHere ' + ivid);
iqw=0;
while (parent.document.getElementById('i' + iqw)) {
if (parent.document.getElementById('i' + iqw).value.indexOf('cannotenda2') != -1) {
vidarrv[iqw]='cannotenda2';
}
iqw++;
}
//alert('Here ' + ivid);
window.parent.window.opener.nonytopen(ivid, compduris, comptitleis);
} else {
iqw=0;
while (parent.document.getElementById('i' + iqw)) {
if (parent.document.getElementById('i' + iqw).value.indexOf('cannotenda2') != -1) {
vidarrv[iqw]='cannotenda2';
}
iqw++;
}
//alert('gere ' + ivid);
parent.nonytopen(ivid, compduris, comptitleis);
}
//} else {
// alert('therE');
}
return intr;
}

function localended(avo) {
var iqw=0;
if (window.parent) {
if (parent.document.URL.indexOf('tbox=') != -1) {
if (window.parent.window.opener) {
iqw=0;
while (parent.document.getElementById('i' + iqw)) {
if (parent.document.getElementById('i' + iqw).value.indexOf('cannotenda2') != -1) {
vidarrv[iqw]='cannotenda2';
}
iqw++;
}
setTimeout(function() { parent.window.opener.document.getElementById('j' + parent.document.URL.split('tbox=')[1].split('&')[0]).value='' + Math.ceil(eval('' + contdurs[whichnonyt(eval(-1 + contstarts.length))])) + '.00'; parent.document.getElementById('mytopspan').innerHTML='You can close me now ... ' + parent.document.getElementById('mytopspan').innerHTML; parent.window.opener.focus(); parent.window.opener.backtobase(); parent.window.opener.focus(); duration=-1; aminytnon=false; player=altplayer; }, 1000);

//window.close();
}
} else if (parent.document.URL.indexOf('/karaoke_youtube_api.htm') != -1) {
iqw=0;
while (parent.document.getElementById('i' + iqw)) {
if (parent.document.getElementById('i' + iqw).value.indexOf('cannotenda2') != -1) {
vidarrv[iqw]='cannotenda2';
}
iqw++;
}
if (('' + parent.document.URL + 's').replace(/\#https/g,'') != ('' + parent.document.URL + 's')) {
aminytnon=false;
player=altplayer;
duration=-9999;
playingvideo(); //setTimeout(playingvideo, 800);
}
} else if ('blog' != 'blog') {
parent.document.title='Finished ' + avo.outerHTML.substring(1).split(' ')[0];
}
}

}

… essentially unaffected by the pretty dramatic change of window usage configuration. Cute, huh?! But how is this made to happen? It’s really simple, really, as the second parameter of window.open can point to an iframe name attribute …


<iframe name=radioif id=radioif data-laterclick="" data-position=relative data-top=0 data-left=0 data-width=0 data-height=0 data-z=-999 style=display:none; src='//www.rjmprogramming.com.au/HTMLCSS/karaoke_youtube_api.htm#http'></iframe>

… and then we can wrap window.open calls, in amongst very “overlay” minded Javascript code, into our new inhouse “function windowopen” …


function windowopen(w1,w2,w3) {
if (('' + document.getElementById('radioif').getAttribute('data-height')) == '0') {
document.getElementById('radioif').setAttribute('data-height', '' + document.getElementById('tablenmup').getBoundingClientRect().top);
document.getElementById('radioif').setAttribute('data-width', '' + screen.width);
document.getElementById('radioif').setAttribute('data-top', '' + document.getElementById('tablenmup').getBoundingClientRect().top);
}
if (document.getElementById('xx' + nextwoin).outerHTML.indexOf('green') != -1) {
document.getElementById('radioif').style.position='absolute';
document.getElementById('radioif').style.top='0px';
document.getElementById('radioif').style.left='0px';
document.getElementById('radioif').style.width='' + document.getElementById('radioif').getAttribute('data-width') + 'px';
document.getElementById('radioif').style.height='' + document.getElementById('radioif').getAttribute('data-height') + 'px';
document.getElementById('radioif').style.zIndex='999';
document.getElementById('radioif').style.display='block';
} else {
document.getElementById('radioif').style.zIndex='-999';
document.getElementById('radioif').style.display='none';
lastw1=w1;
lastw2=w2;
lastw3=w3;
lastnextwoin=nextwoin;
}
if (w1.indexOf('&rand=') != -1) {
w1=w1.replace('&rand=', '&rand=' + Math.floor(Math.random() * 9));
} else if (w1.indexOf('#') != -1) {
w1=w1.replace('#', '&rand=' + Math.floor(Math.random() * 129) + '#');
}
if (w1.indexOf('&tbox=') != -1) {
w1=w1.replace('&tbox=' + w1.split('&tbox=')[1].split('&')[0].split('#')[0], '&tbox=' + nextwoin);
} else if (w1.indexOf('&') != -1) {
w1=w1.replace('&', '&tbox=' + nextwoin + '&');
}
if (nextwo) {
if (!nextwo.closed) {
nextwo.close();
nextwo=null;
}
}
return window.open(w1,"radioif");
}

Code Difference Reporting Context Tutorial

Code Difference Reporting Context Tutorial

Code Difference Reporting Context Tutorial

We’re back (after Code Difference AlmaLinux New Webserver Issue Tutorial) at improving Code Difference Reporting at the RJM Programming domain today.

We had a day recently where we thought it useful to somehow point out to users if their Code Difference Report is not related to the most up to date one they could get, or for that matter if not at the beginning of the code development process.

And then a few days later we realized it would be related, and good, to supply some code file dates for reference, which now happens via a double click or with non-mobile user, just hovering over the Code Difference Report web page.

Primarily, what changed is encapsulated by this new PHP function …

<?php

function posthit($inhit) {
global $dtbizzo;
$outhit=$inhit;
$preout="";
$pregetme="";
$postgetme="";
$htis='';
if (strpos($inhit, 'http://www.rjmprogramming.com.au') !== false) {
$htis='http://';
} else if (strpos($inhit, 'HTTPS://www.rjmprogramming.com.au') !== false) {
$htis='HTTPS://';
}
if (strpos($inhit, '' . $htis . 'www.rjmprogramming.com.au') !== false) {

$pregetme=str_replace("" . $htis . "www.rjmprogramming.com.au",$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'],explode("_GETME", $inhit)[0]);
} else {
$pregetme=rtrim(str_replace("" . $htis . "www.rjmprogramming.com.au",$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'],explode("-GETME", $inhit)[0]),'-');
}
$maxlenfile="";
$minlenfile="";
$seclast="";
$thelast="";
foreach (glob($pregetme . "*GETME") as $flfilename) {

Code Difference AlmaLinux New Webserver Issue Tutorial

Software people involved in PHP programming will be aware that a lot of “what goes on under the hood” configuration wise happens regarding that PHP version’s php.ini configuration file. Sometimes you have direct access to changing the php.ini file. Need I say “be careful” if you make changes, and restart the Apache httpd service to implement? There’ll be situations you have no access to that php.ini file or rely on a shared hosting environment or prefer better experts to handle the changes cough, cough where you’ll forgo these changes to your web hoster’s expertise. Anyway, up until today, php.ini issues on our newer AlmaLinux webserver stopped it performing on that webserver, and had us pointing back to the old webserver IP address to get something working these last weeks.

That php.ini may have a directive …

disable_functions

… where PHP functions such as exec and shell_exec become more and more contentious over time regarding security concerns. Other PHP functions in that category might be file_get_contents (and we started using PHP fread a lot more for example

<?php

$fis = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . explode('rjmprogramming.com.au', $inuis)[1];
$his = fopen($fis, "r");
$cis = fread($his, filesize($fis));
fclose($his);

?>

… with today’s project’s coding) and file_put_contents amongst others.

Our coding difference report (talked about below with Code Difference AlmaLinux HTML Issue Followup Tutorial) revolves around the Linux command …

diff

… and though we could rearrange into a crontab/curl arrangement that would get around the need for exec and shell_exec calls within this project’s PHP … but as Lleyton and John would say … come on … and … you cannot be serious!

The new diff.php got changed as per this link to suit this new webserver, on it’s own terms.

Web application solutions, looking at them the next day, can often throw up …

There’s more to it than that.

… ideas, especially if you’ve been beavering away at the one code source (section), and the overall solution might involve more than that. And it may be …

  • your own followup testing … or …
  • your own followup usage (somewhere else, that annoys) … or …
  • someone else’s observations

… which gets you to realize you’ve only addressed one part of several parts to an overall solution. This occurred regarding Code Difference AlmaLinux HTML Issue Tutorial from a couple of days ago, and us happening upon a link like the https://www.rjmprogramming.com.au/HTMLCSS/body_cavities.html-GETME (and we’re only worrying about .html and GETME style URLs here) of …

… is like one we’d use at this blog but want it to display code, and in this scenario we often display …

  1. a code differences link … the problems of which we addressed in part one of the solution a few days ago …
  2. a link like above that is meant to display HTML code …
  3. as applicable, a link to the web application involved

So, as of a couple of days ago, that middle one would do something, for HTML code links, but not what we were expecting. But because we have that access to the WordPress blog TwentyTen theme header.php PHP codex code, we can amend as per (working off the structure of a previous modification you can read about at WordPress Table Cell Nests Code Element Overflow Issue Tutorial) …

The PHP diff.php code got changed so that a user entered comma separated list will be scrutinised for whether it represents a single string to find, or if highlighting should happen for each list member in the comma separated list.

It meant, in that scenario yesterday, when a single variable usage “tells a story” in the code, this code difference highlighting might be more effective at explaining the issues rather than showing the code in a code element (even with inhouse colour coding), because there is also the “before” and “after” scenarios there on the screen for the reader to contextualize.

Yesterday’s Code Difference Colour Coding Tutorial Difference Report modifications (still) had the inherent weakness …

  • it was possible, but unlikely, for users to see other user generated reports, if they happened to be asking for reports at exactly the same time … because …
  • we had not catered for busy traffic here … but, today …
  • we cater, better, for busy online traffic … and at the same time …
  • improve the privacy of the reporting on an IP address basis

The downside, at least for us managing this, is that we do not want a build up of files belonging to difference reports long gone. We arrange it, then, that as soon as the report is created, a window.open scenario is coded for …

Code Difference Colour Coding Tutorial

It’s coming up to a few years now, since we looked at the code differences reporting we offer the reader, as a way to scrutinize code changes, around here, when we presented Code Download Table Difference Functional Hover Tutorial. Well, we thought we might try some colour coding to perhaps lift the fog on the cryptic nature of Linux diff (difference) command based reports. They can be cryptic because they can feed into the automation feeding of the report into other Linux commands to facilitate ongoing editing endeavours, but we do not want to go into that here, at least today.

But on examining the reports we came up with the following difference report “categories” if you will …

  • New additional
  • Changed single line
  • New block of lines
  • Deleted lines
  • Changed multiple lines

… the header (of a block of interest) the dead give away, depending on the existence of “a” or “c” or “d” and/or “,” for a common sense reinterpretation by us not visiting “man diff” ourselves, yet, regarding this work.

Feel free to take a look at our changed diff.php‘s more colourful Code Differences helper.

Code Download Table Difference Functional Hover Tutorial

Is it worth adding “onmouseover” event logic onto yesterday’s Code Download Table Difference Functional Linking Tutorial? You bet it is! Just because “onmouseover” has no relevance to mobile platforms, so, obversely, developing software with version control systems is irrelevant to mobile platforms.

a place for everything and everything in its place

… we figure. But this is of relevance to the programmer. Sometimes, rather than cater for all the platforms, settling on a subset (of those platforms) can be apt because …

  • one of mobile or non-mobile subsets of platforms is irrelevant to the scenario … as for today … or …
  • you try to reinvent the wheel on the pretext that you are waiting for a particular web browser or platform to allow the functionality in, into the future … you could be waiting a while, with the complexity of app arrangements going on around the net these days

Anyway, back to the “onmouseover” event on non-mobile platforms … it was the case that this event was a favourite for the conduit towards Ajax (client) functionality. And thinking on what we do today to nuance our Code Differences PHP web application, we were thinking …

What would Ajax (like to) do?

… and we decided Ajax would really like to …

  • populate a “div” style=display:inline-block; element adjacent to the functional detail to inform about … but this was not possible … so, instead, we …
  • populate a popup window near to the functional detail to inform about

… for a non-mobile “hover” (ie. “onmouseover”) event.

Along the way we add some more hashtag navigations and set up more colour coding to the output of (the optional) “functional links” Code Difference reporting.

  • add copy onto a download functionality to the Code Download Table … today, we …
  • add a Multiple Row selection basis for a personalized Email Report for the user

… as we saw that there was scope for this as a sharing mechanism for project discussions and ideas, we hope.

Today’s tutorial picture tries to show the steps to emailing off a report of interest to a user …

  1. User clicks the “Allow Multiple Row Clicks” checkbox …

    prefixask=prefixask.replace('</div>', '<div id=divawrc style=display:inline-block;>  Allow Multiple Row Clicks <input onchange="domrows();" id=awrc style=inline-block; type=checkbox></input> <div id=dawrc style=display:inline-block;></div></div></div>');

    }
    }

    … and table row onclick logic is dynamically applied to those “tr” elements
  3. User clicks somewhere within rows they are interested in seeing be included in a report (which is a snippet of the whole Code Download Table, perhaps to do with a project of interest, or a learning topic of interest)
  4. User optionally clicks the “Report” button …

Download and Copy or Move Server Tutorial

Yesterday’s Download and Copy or Move Primer Tutorial was all about the “client side” of …

… and we’ve just “tweaked” (albeit, very importantly, in our books (… but the pamphlettes are still not playing ball)) to ensure no “file clobbering” takes place so that the Korn Shell now does …


suf=""

while [ -f "${dpath}/${brest}${suf}" ]; do
((isuf=isuf+1))

echo "mv ${dpath}/${brest} ${dpath}/${brest}${suf} # `date`" >> download_to_place.out
mv ${dpath}/${brest} ${dpath}/${brest}${suf} >> download_to_place.out 2>> download_to_place.err
fi

… in download_copier.ksh download_copier.ksh Korn Shell scripting on our macOS operating system “client”.

But today is mainly about filling in the missing bits on the “server” side. This (need for a) “conduit” we referred to yesterday is because we accept no folder paths can be mentioned at the “server” end. Suppose, though, that the “non-pathed” filename we supply to an “a” link’s “download” attribute can be prefixed by a mildly mashed up version of that path we copy to from the Downloads folder of your “client” computer or device, as you perform a “download” via the clicking of an “a” link.

Well, at this blog we’d already started functionality to toggle the use or not of …

  • “a” links … with …
  • “href” attribute containing “GETME” …
  • but not “diff.php” … and …
  • “download” attribute (the attribute necessary to “download” rather than our default displaying of source code in a new webpage)

Were you here, then, when we published WordPress Blog Download Mode Toggler Primer Tutorial (or were you indisposed again?!) There we established an “All Posts” menu “Toggle Download Mode from GETME” option piece of functionality to toggle between …

Download and Copy or Move Primer Tutorial

Downloading from “the net” (“server land”) to your computer or device (“client land”) is a big part of the online experience and the sharing of data over the world wide web. But have you ever wondered about the two step design of …

  1. download from “the net” to a Downloads folder on your computer or device … and more often than not …
  2. you, the user, copies or renames this data to another location on your computer or device with command line or with operating system GUI

… ? Why not allow the “server” side define where it can download to on the “client”? Well, that would be a security nightmare, allowing a highjacking of mission critical files on your computer or device. So, I get it, that is a “no no”. But could we have a controlled “arrangement” between …

… ? We think that sounds reasonable and so, today, we start our (two parts or more) mini-project (making step 2 above be considered to be programmatically handled, sometimes) designing a Korn Shell (“client” side) listener to suit our macOS “client” computer, executed as a background process via …


ksh download_copier.ksh &

But what is the conduit, if the “server” web applications/pages cannot define a destination folder other than the macOS Downloads folder for the user involved? Well, that is where we need either …

… to define a “client land” folder to copy to (from the user’s Download folder (receiving the downloaded data).

That first Korn Shell read command interactive input was interesting to us for a command backgrounded via the “&” command suffix. But if stdin and stdout are not mentioned in the command you can answer this interactive input and then the processing the Korn Shell performs proceeds in the background. Exactly what we were hoping for, but weren’t sure that this was the case!

The picture is filled in better tomorrow as we discuss the conduit in more detail tomorrow.

  • YouTube video media content … interspersed with …
  • non YouTube media content

… when we presented Spliced Audio/Video YouTube Shuffle Tutorial blog posting thread. We better like this “generic push” idea of adapting our inhouse YouTube API interfacing web application to process both types of media input categories and be handled just within it’s remit, if there are non YouTube media items, within a (newly nesting) …

  • table element … with …
  • left hand cell handling YouTube video media content presented via YouTube API’s iframe element approach … and the …
  • right hand cell handling non YouTube video media content presented via video or audio or img or iframe element depending on the data mimetype …

… and it is our inhouse YouTube API interfacing web application’s job to toggle between CSS display:none; and display:table-cell; for these two cells appropriately.

This work we see as a two part mini-project where …

  1. today’s phase 1 work isolates that inhouse YouTube API interfacing web application and asks it to handle new hashtag based data arguments coming in to demonstrate it, in that isolation, works both for the new paradigm and any previous scenarios … and then …
  2. after today we start phase 2 work interfacings, where we will rejoin the blog posting thread of yesterday’s Tabular Single Row Emoji Sharing Menu Tutorial and allow for the smarter inhouse YouTube API interfacing web application to be relatively seamless changing between YouTube and non YouTube media playing should a user enter a data URI, for example, in one of those textboxes to the right of the checkboxes

… for the modified stop_start_youtube.html YouTube API caller.

Here is a non YouTube video example …

Apart from yesterday’s Tabular Single Row YouTube API Radio Play Tutorial‘s mainly HTML input type=checkbox means by which the user could control their YouTube video “Radio play” modes of use, there was one more aspect to user control we wanted to offer, that being to …


allow user to change a "Radio playlist" member in real time by changing the textboxes to the right of the individual checkboxes, primarily to enter in their own YouTube 11 character video identifier

… functionalities within those three new incarnations. We could organize the first to use the YouTube API in that “vertical in the one table cell, with checkboxes” way, too, but see the textareas of different interest in an ongoing sense. We’ll see whether we offer that YouTube API approach in a future release?!

Tabular Single Row Textarea Sharing Tutorial

Yesterday’s Tabular Single Row Radio Play Tutorial‘s web application has two interesting features …

  • lots of use of textarea element placeholder attribute for explaining more complex data entry scenarios … and as of today …
  • a button element with the potential that it’s “innards” (ie. it’s innerHTML) is filled by a dropdown (ie. select element)

… it being our first time trying any HTML button element “innards” that were not always straight text. Is this the “comboBox” style of arrangement we used to see with desktop application GUIs and have long wished to simulate the usefulness of, online?!

Well, we’re not quite sure, but we think we’re going to look into it more into the future. So, what are we storing in this dropdown? We’re offering the user the chance … over to you code

Too brief for interested parties, and we intended it as a seminal discussion, but it’s meaning got subsumed, if you will, with the goings on of the blog posting thread last talked about with the day before’s Tabular Single Row Image Gallery Linking Tutorial.

You see, the YouTube audio stream only inhouse looping control is an essential thing we needed to tie down for today’s progress in this blog posting thread, that being the first incarnation of …

Radio Play

… sequenced modes of play we’re offering today, as a start, for …

  • non-mobile users

… about getting this first Radio Play idea happening? In a word …

You find yourself wanting to do lots of …


[element].click();

… and …


[element].blur();

… types of work, which work best with focus (and boy, did we need to “focus”?!) We’ve minimised this where we could, but what we highly recommend users of this functionality doing is …

  • be presented with the solo web browser full screen (initial) window with the radio emoji
  • click desired first song link when the song link emojis appear … then …
  • it’s best to make this window small and away from other web browser windows but not overlapping for the best chance of …
  • songs play in sequence and loop back through the list

“Tabular Single Row Image Gallery” …

Smabular Single Row Image Gallery

… we’re sure is the reaction of some readers out there, to today’s “starting draft” for an idea we had. Today’s part of the jigsaw we want to explore may be “ho hum” and “so non-mobile”, but we’re hoping the thread appeals to more modern ideas as we go along.

So much for the apologies, and so let’s now look at the basis to this start …

  • media (so far just image) …
  • gallery … presented in …
  • table … HTML element … in …
  • single tr row
  • deliberately overflowing to the right of the screen view of the webpage … and so …
  • scrollable (ie. window scrollable) to … those right hand parts …
  • only “media loaded” …
  • as “scrolled to” or “stumbled upon”

So far the window scrollable detection goes (thanks to this useful link) …


window.onscroll = function (e) {
// called when the window is scrolled.
vspos4=document.body.scrollTop;
vspos3=document.body.scrollLeft;
var vstdn=Math.ceil(eval('' + vspos3) / eval('' + amin));
if (curtdn != vstdn) {
checkthen(vstdn);
}
}

… and the CSS produced “wording (ie. non-media) content” is produced down the bottom left of “inhouse WordPress Blog image cell background” ( possible because of background-size:contain ) we think is interesting …


<style>
td {
border: 1px dotted green;
}

.inhouse {
vertical-align: bottom;
padding-bottom: 20px;
}

.inhouse::after {
content: 'Media Gallery \a RJM Programming \a August, 2025 \a Thanks to Lorem Picsum at https://picsum.photos/ \a ' attr(alt);
white-space: pre-wrap;
}

</style>

… in a “first draft” Tabular Single Row Image Gallery web application for your perusal. Thanks to Lorem Picsum regarding, as so often happens for us, when we’d like beautiful random images to be involved with web applications!

Tabular Single Row YouTube API Radio Play Textbox Tutorial

Tabular Single Row YouTube API Radio Play Textbox Tutorial

Tabular Single Row YouTube API Radio Play Textbox Tutorial

Apart from yesterday’s Tabular Single Row YouTube API Radio Play Tutorial‘s mainly HTML input type=checkbox means by which the user could control their YouTube video “Radio play” modes of use, there was one more aspect to user control we wanted to offer, that being to …


allow user to change a "Radio playlist" member in real time by changing the textboxes to the right of the individual checkboxes, primarily to enter in their own YouTube 11 character video identifier

… and have the software detect this event programmatically and update various aspects of that “Radio play” scenario.

This means, now, we can publish a more complete Javascript interventional snippet of code of relevance to yesterday’s and today’s work below …

  • individual YouTube video checkbox user control can end a song before it’s finish
  • recognition of individual YouTube video checkbox user control as above (can mean an individual song can be looped or deliberately ignored)
  • saving the playlist for user recall on the same web browser

… functionalities within those three new incarnations. We could organize the first to use the YouTube API in that “vertical in the one table cell, with checkboxes” way, too, but see the textareas of different interest in an ongoing sense. We’ll see whether we offer that YouTube API approach in a future release?!

Codewise, this involved …

Tabular Single Row Textarea Sharing Tutorial

Yesterday’s Tabular Single Row Radio Play Tutorial‘s web application has two interesting features …

  • lots of use of textarea element placeholder attribute for explaining more complex data entry scenarios … and as of today …
  • a button element with the potential that it’s “innards” (ie. it’s innerHTML) is filled by a dropdown (ie. select element)

… it being our first time trying any HTML button element “innards” that were not always straight text. Is this the “comboBox” style of arrangement we used to see with desktop application GUIs and have long wished to simulate the usefulness of, online?!

Well, we’re not quite sure, but we think we’re going to look into it more into the future. So, what are we storing in this dropdown? We’re offering the user the chance … over to you code

Too brief for interested parties, and we intended it as a seminal discussion, but it’s meaning got subsumed, if you will, with the goings on of the blog posting thread last talked about with the day before’s Tabular Single Row Image Gallery Linking Tutorial.

You see, the YouTube audio stream only inhouse looping control is an essential thing we needed to tie down for today’s progress in this blog posting thread, that being the first incarnation of …

Radio Play

… sequenced modes of play we’re offering today, as a start, for …

  • non-mobile users

… about getting this first Radio Play idea happening? In a word …

Focus

You find yourself wanting to do lots of …


[element].click();

… and …


[element].blur();

… types of work, which work best with focus (and boy, did we need to “focus”?!) We’ve minimised this where we could, but what we highly recommend users of this functionality doing is …

  • be presented with the solo web browser full screen (initial) window with the radio emoji
  • click desired first song link when the song link emojis appear … then …
  • it’s best to make this window small and away from other web browser windows but not overlapping for the best chance of …
  • songs play in sequence and loop back through the list

“Tabular Single Row Image Gallery” …

Smabular Single Row Image Gallery

… we’re sure is the reaction of some readers out there, to today’s “starting draft” for an idea we had. Today’s part of the jigsaw we want to explore may be “ho hum” and “so non-mobile”, but we’re hoping the thread appeals to more modern ideas as we go along.

So much for the apologies, and so let’s now look at the basis to this start …

  • media (so far just image) …
  • gallery … presented in …
  • table … HTML element … in …
  • single tr row
  • deliberately overflowing to the right of the screen view of the webpage … and so …
  • scrollable (ie. window scrollable) to … those right hand parts …
  • only “media loaded” …
  • as “scrolled to” or “stumbled upon”

So far the window scrollable detection goes (thanks to this useful link) …


window.onscroll = function (e) {
// called when the window is scrolled.
vspos4=document.body.scrollTop;
vspos3=document.body.scrollLeft;
var vstdn=Math.ceil(eval('' + vspos3) / eval('' + amin));
if (curtdn != vstdn) {
checkthen(vstdn);
}
}

… and the CSS produced “wording (ie. non-media) content” is produced down the bottom left of “inhouse WordPress Blog image cell background” ( possible because of background-size:contain ) we think is interesting …


<style>
td {
border: 1px dotted green;
}

.inhouse {
vertical-align: bottom;
padding-bottom: 20px;
}

.inhouse::after {
content: 'Media Gallery \a RJM Programming \a August, 2025 \a Thanks to Lorem Picsum at https://picsum.photos/ \a ' attr(alt);
white-space: pre-wrap;
}

</style>

… in a “first draft” Tabular Single Row Image Gallery web application for your perusal. Thanks to Lorem Picsum regarding, as so often happens for us, when we’d like beautiful random images to be involved with web applications!

Tabular Single Row YouTube API Radio Play Tutorial

Today, we’re back to the Tabular Single Row Media Gallery ideas regarding the web application of the recent Tabular Single Row Textarea Sharing Tutorial and we’re involving more “button innards” thinking, with respect to adding onto the pre-existing …

  • radio play with YouTube audio stream only non-mobile platform incarnation … involving textarea usage … with, today, after getting the YouTube API inhouse web application, better attuned to …
  • radio play with YouTube audio stream only mobile platform incarnation … and …
  • radio play with YouTube video play on non-mobile platform incarnation … and …
  • radio play with YouTube video play on mobile platform incarnation

… additional functionalities allowing for …

  • looping (though the total list) … default for “radio play” …
  • shuffling … non-default …
  • individual YouTube video checkbox user control can end a song before it’s finish
  • recognition of individual YouTube video checkbox user control as above (can mean an individual song can be looped or deliberately ignored)
  • saving the playlist for user recall on the same web browser

… functionalities within those three new incarnations. We could organize the first to use the YouTube API in that “vertical in the one table cell, with checkboxes” way, too, but see the textareas of different interest in an ongoing sense. We’ll see whether we offer that YouTube API approach in a future release?!

Codewise, this involved …

Tabular Single Row Textarea Sharing Tutorial

Yesterday’s Tabular Single Row Radio Play Tutorial‘s web application has two interesting features …

  • lots of use of textarea element placeholder attribute for explaining more complex data entry scenarios … and as of today …
  • a button element with the potential that it’s “innards” (ie. it’s innerHTML) is filled by a dropdown (ie. select element)

… it being our first time trying any HTML button element “innards” that were not always straight text. Is this the “comboBox” style of arrangement we used to see with desktop application GUIs and have long wished to simulate the usefulness of, online?!

Well, we’re not quite sure, but we think we’re going to look into it more into the future. So, what are we storing in this dropdown? We’re offering the user the chance … over to you code

“Tabular Single Row Image Gallery” …

Smabular Single Row Image Gallery

… we’re sure is the reaction of some readers out there, to today’s “starting draft” for an idea we had. Today’s part of the jigsaw we want to explore may be “ho hum” and “so non-mobile”, but we’re hoping the thread appeals to more modern ideas as we go along.

So much for the apologies, and so let’s now look at the basis to this start …

  • media (so far just image) …
  • gallery … presented in …
  • table … HTML element … in …
  • single tr row
  • deliberately overflowing to the right of the screen view of the webpage … and so …
  • scrollable (ie. window scrollable) to … those right hand parts …
  • only “media loaded” …
  • as “scrolled to” or “stumbled upon”

So far the window scrollable detection goes (thanks to this useful link) …


window.onscroll = function (e) {
// called when the window is scrolled.
vspos4=document.body.scrollTop;
vspos3=document.body.scrollLeft;
var vstdn=Math.ceil(eval('' + vspos3) / eval('' + amin));
if (curtdn != vstdn) {
checkthen(vstdn);
}
}

… and the CSS produced “wording (ie. non-media) content” is produced down the bottom left of “inhouse WordPress Blog image cell background” ( possible because of background-size:contain ) we think is interesting …


<style>
td {
border: 1px dotted green;
}

.inhouse {
vertical-align: bottom;
padding-bottom: 20px;
}

.inhouse::after {
content: 'Media Gallery \a RJM Programming \a August, 2025 \a Thanks to Lorem Picsum at https://picsum.photos/ \a ' attr(alt);
white-space: pre-wrap;
}

</style>

… concepts, happily. Keeping it all “just clientside” means we can be talking meaningfully to a larger chunk of audience … if you’re listening, that is?!

Making of Ffmpeg Video Overall Effects Tutorial

At the end of yesterday’s Ffmpeg Video Overall Effects Tutorial there was an Unordered List …

… of links, am sure a lot of you would guess, were gleaned (within our Google Chrome web browser History (of that day)) Bookmarked (by us) webpages. We actually compiled via (the clunky and fairly slow) …

  • left half (of screen) with (Google Chrome) History showing, and right half with BBEdit Text Editor open at a new (ostensibly empty) file with loads of empty records available, and dragged URL records (identifiable, for us, via an asterisk, indicating a webpage was Bookmarked) from the left into the right to bring over the URLs (only) above, the rest constructed in a more manual way … and another way could have been …
  • use Google Chrome webpage showing Bookmark list and use its Export Bookmarks (no other choice but “All”) to a file that could be waded through to derive the list above … and then we thought of chance to code for …
  • hybrid “inhouse” clientside (ie. HTML/Javascript/CSS) web application …

    … so far asking for the content of a web browser Export Bookmarks operation’s output file’s HTML (in the case of Google Chrome) content in an HTML textarea element (the user can fill in themselves), and filterable via two input type=datetime-local starting and ending datetime(s) of interest (the user can fill in, optionally)

… and we wish we could have got that hour and a half back, from yesterday, via swapping yesterday for today?!

Feel free to try our “first draft” proof of concept Dated Bookmark Export web application, yourself.

Did you know?

Not all web browser brands have any Export Bookmarks functionality, like Google Chrome offers here on macOS. We’re going to be examining others, over time, and try to make our inhouse logic fit in with how that Bookmark data looks, on export, should we find any other Web Browser brands offering this functionality.

Today’s work (all on our macOS MAMP local Apache/PHP/MySQL web server environment) is only “toe dipping” in a “great big sea of possibilities” regarding the great ffmpeg‘s “filtering style abilities” further to yesterday’s Ffmpeg Video Subliminal Message Tutorial, but …

  • as you try out things you discover others …
  • can be a foot in the door researching this type of work yourself …

And so, onto yesterday’s Animated GIF Creator PDF Last Reveal Tutorial we decided to revisit video creation parts of our inhouse Animated GIF Creator on this MacBook Air. We needed to reinstall ffmpeg, and we show that in today’s animated GIF tutorial picture and also created the “video.mov” video below, in the process …

… we tweaked out of “video/mp4” ffmpeg created videos thinking towards “video/webm” or “video.mov” ffmpeg created videos that suit the “few frames but spaced out video” we wanted to achieve for all practical purposes, that “video/mp4” playing too fast for us to see anything much but the first and last slide …

Animated GIF Creator PDF Last Reveal Tutorial

As a web application programmer we like buttons. There are “buttons” and there are buttons. Yes, there is an HTML button element, and it and the input type=button element render as that part of a webpage most recognizable to users the world over. You click or tap this button and something usually happens.

But we also enjoy “Emoji Buttons” for we graphically challenged programmers. Using an emoji text and graphic can make span elements or p elements or lots of other HTML elements that have an innerHTML property, be like a very succinct button like entity, also appreciated around here because it takes up so little webpage “real estate”.

And so onto yesterday’s Animated GIF Creator PDF Order Tutorial we set about, today, “revealing” any enduring animated GIF and/or PDF created during a previous session, using Emoji Buttons as the email/SMS sharing action buttons.

We say “revealing” because, like the way “Emoji Buttons” save webpage “real estate”, so can the use of the HTML5 details/summary element combination. It is in that summary “enduring” header part of that combination we can place some “Emoji Buttons”. You will (once you start creating and sharing animated GIFs and/or PDFs) see from our changed tutorial_to_animated_gif.php inhouse Animated GIF Creator (helped out by a changed emailhtml.php inhouse email creator helper serverside PHP web application) that we place three Emoji Buttons …

  1. 📟 SMS (Animated GIF or PDF) Limited relevance period (ie. no data URIs involved, so rely on an absolute URL whose content might change or start not to exist down the track) … via “a” “sms:” link click/tap
  2. 📧 Email (Animated GIF or PDF) Limited relevance period (ie. no data URIs involved, so rely on an absolute URL whose content might change or start not to exist down the track) … via “a” “mailto:” link click/tap
  3. 📧 Email (Animated GIF or PDF) Enduring relevance (ie. data URIs involved, so do not rely on any absolute URL whose content might change or start not to exist down the track) … via PHP mail function means of sending email with HTML attachment containing the relevant Animated GIF or PDF

Yes, “Emoji Buttons” can have their size controlled but not by the usual CSS width and height properties, but by the CSS font-size property. Here is the new Javascript function that those Emoji Button “onclick” logic points to …

<?php eho ”

function askes(isemail, isoab) {
var esask='', izhr=null, izform=null;
var isoa=document.getElementById(isoab.id.replace('b',''));
if (isemail) {
esask=prompt('Please enter email address to send this to', '');

Animated GIF Creator PDF Order Tutorial

Animated GIF Creator PDF Order Tutorial

Order becomes an interesting subject to us today regarding the PDF conversions possible in amongst the Animated GIF creating of yesterday’s Animated GIF Creator PDF Share Tutorial.

That is because we may have some advanced users out there that want that possibility of differentiating the data of …

  • animated GIF … containing all features asked for, in totality … from the chance for the user to have any of the PDF conversion option sets below …
  • PDF … one of …
    1. no PDF conversion
    2. full PDF conversion … with the user choices regarding raw image content and title and watermarking and ImageMagick and GD modifiers
    3. light PDF conversion … with the user choices regarding just raw image content (the only option out of these last three available before today’s work)
    4. medium PDF conversion … with the user choices regarding just ImageMagick and GD modifiers

… perhaps as a “before and after” tool regarding presentations, maybe?

No dropdowns used here (enforcing an order), just the user’s order in which they choose to select the “PDF conversion” option from the ImageMagick dropdown (in relation to other selections) determining how and when this PDF conversion occurs in the workflow through to creating the animated GIF with our changed tutorial_to_animated_gif.php inhouse Animated GIF Creator serverside PHP web application. Just remember to select PDF Conversion as early as possible to do that “light PDF conversion” option above and last thing if you are interested in “full PDF conversion” (where you can create PDF documents with the bells and whistles ImageMagick and GD modifiers can offer) and today’s tutorial picture is an example of “medium PDF conversion” (when we ordered our settings by first Grayscale, second PDF conversion and last title and watermarking options). Clicking or tapping the ImageMagick link can get the user to the Javascript popup window where they might define the email or SMS recipient for that PDF conversion data file download.

To share yesterday’s Animated GIF Creator PDF Conversion Tutorial PDF data formatted image slides (and then onto an animated GIF) would be a step forward, wouldn’t you say?

What sharing conduits do we code for? We always intended …

  • email … but as the day wore on trying to get the usage to work on mobile and non-mobile we decided to relinquish our wish to not have to create a user specific enduring (until that same browser type and user combination share) PDF document for the user request … mainly to get mobile email downloads to be friendly … and so this opened the door for …
  • SMS … to access that enduring PDF as a URL in the SMS message (that becomes a link for the recipient)

Up to yesterday’s Animated GIF Creator Slide Specific Application Tutorial the recent progress had us …

  • knowing the good places to intervene between the original slide image data being read in and the animated GIF slide output … and …
  • involvement of ImageMagick … so, today, these two help us down the path to …
  • adding PDF as an output format possibility, in addition to the animated GIF and other ideas floated as output formats

… with our changed tutorial_to_animated_gif.php inhouse Animated GIF Creator serverside PHP web application.

We have more “reliability work” and “email sharing work” to go after today’s start, but it primarily called on ImageMagick command line’s talent for a command like …


convert /tmp/imtmp0*.*[gGmMiI]* /tmp/imtmp000.pdf

… to “concatenate” into the one output PDF file (called “/tmp/imtmp000.pdf”) the slides, arranged by our code into that “/tmp/imtmp0*.*[gGmMiI]*” (file specification) arrangement above. Yes, we meant “convert” above, as “mogrify” (batch work) appears not to be able to perform this task.

We hope you stay the course!

Animated GIF Creator Slide Specific Application Tutorial

It’s all fine and good improving on the ImageMagick and GD and Exif functionality modifications like with yesterday’s Animated GIF Creator Exif Rotation Compensation Tutorial, but in reality, if you are going to start creating animated GIFs to explain a process, you are going to want to apply these “slide modifiers” on a slide by slide basis, rather than enforcing a “whole of animated GIF slide set” paradigm, as for the last few days worth of work.

And so, we decided to do what we often do, “sliding in” more functionality (chortle, chortle). We tend to want to …

  • start with hardcoded text (or element) … somewhere … today it happens to be in an HTML span element that once involved just …

    <span id="smyim"></span>

    … and used to get filled, Javascript DOM wise, when needed via …

    document.getElementById('smyim').innerHTML='ImageMagick switches: '; // and yes, it remains that way even now, but read on ...
  • add intelligence (quite often that being onclick logic(s)) to that hardcoded element via …

    <span id=smyim title=Application onclick=applyto(); style=cursor:pointer;text-decoration:underline;></span>
  • that serves the purpose, as the user clicks/taps it (alerted to that fact, perhaps, because we underline the element and add an appropriate cursor when hovering over it (plus a title)), of calling Javascript …

    function applyto() {
    var huhto=prompt('Apply ImageMagick and/or GD to which slides, in comma separated list, counting starting with 1? Defaults to applying to all slides. Comma delimit. Negatives mean all but. Ranges can be specified. For example ... 2,4-7,9', document.getElementById('appliedto').value);
    if (huhto == null) { huhto=''; }
    if (huhto.trim() == '') {
    document.getElementById('appliedto').value='';
    document.getElementById('smyim').title='Application';
    } else {
    document.getElementById('appliedto').value=huhto.trim();
    document.getElementById('smyim').title=huhto.trim();
    }
    }
  • to glean an (often times out of the normal workflow of the web application) informational piece of data, interactively, from the user, via a Javascript prompt popup

So that’s the clientside of this work … “alerting the user to the existance of the functionality” you might say.

And then there’s “the application” of that nuanced user requirement. And that’s where the “inhouse ‘our’ prefix to wrapper function name paradigms” come in handy. We introduced “blanket” functionality thoughts via this approach, and so to “partially undo” that thinking, we make the “our” prefix conditional, as is available to us with our changed tutorial_to_animated_gif.php inhouse Animated GIF Creator serverside PHP web application (helped out by a changed exif_rotation_check.php inhouse Exif detector PHP helper), as per

The recent couple of days of work like yesterday’s Animated GIF Creator GD Transformations Interfacing Tutorial have given us “rotation functionality” tools to counteract the unusual effects Exif …

… can have converting mobile device camera created images into animated GIFs via our changed tutorial_to_animated_gif.php inhouse Animated GIF Creator PHP web application.

But with some photos it’s there in the photo’s metadata information letting the future user know what orientation the camera of that mobile device was in as you took the photo. In order to help our animated GIF creator, the first slide image is scoured for Exif metadata and if found, a suitable rotation correction can be applied to the slides there and then.

Animated GIF Creator GD Transformations Interfacing Tutorial

The PHP GD image library is so much more useful than for the “filters” interfaced to with yesterday’s Animated GIF Creator GD Filter Interfacing Tutorial. Under an “umbrella term” transformations, today we add interfacing to GD functionality …

… into our changed tutorial_to_animated_gif.php inhouse Animated GIF Creator PHP web application. We found it more user friendly to tailor the asking of numerical parameters for these GD calls work via …

ImageMagick Vignette Primer Tutorial

Continuing on with the ImageMagick batch processing “mogrify” ideas of yesterday’s ImageMagick Batch Image Conversion Affine Transformation Tutorial and the “vignette” image editing ideas of Gimp Vignette Primer Tutorial, as below, today, we took some pet photos with an iPad’s Camera app and shared them off the Photos app via two Mail sharing option emails containing seven attachments each. Using an iPad, the JPEG “jpg” output files were too big for our inhouse Animated GIF Creator PHP web application to handle, and so to perform the …

  • animated GIF presentation, off these downloaded email photo attachments … and along the way …
  • quality adjusted them (yes, “mogrify” does not stuff JPG to JPG conversions, and we used “mogrify” -quality 20% switch here) … and …
  • rotate them 180 degrees (“mogrify” uses switches -affine -1,0,0,-1,0,0 -transform +repage here) … and …
  • vignette 50% (“mogrify” uses switch -vignette 50 here)

… on the way to compiling into an animated GIF image, and we turned to ImageMagick again, using its affine transformation talents, along with its awesome vignetting talents …




… where the last two dropdown options will be similar, the last showing the input image into ImageMagick can be an animated GIF that is truely treated like an animated GIF.

By the way, should you be interested in photo orientation off a mobile device camera, have a read of PHP Exif Image Information Revisit Tutorial.

Gimp Vignette Primer Tutorial

The last time we talked about the miraculous, redolent and amazing image editor called Gimp am sure there was someone in a shower … it stands to reason … and one of those showerers, surely, would have been singing The Gimp Song … and if not … why not? … but we digress … anyway we had the Gimp Transparency Primer Tutorial as shown below go into some image transparency issues with Gimp.

In today’s tutorial we make use of a great tutorial (even so far as with direct quotes below) called Add a Vignette to a Photograph with GIMP (thanks) to try a photographic technique called vignetting on one of the photographs we added, recently, into the mix of those of the Custom Header Image mix at this blog … specifically the one of Nala, the dog, on the door ledge. Need to warn you here and now that if there was the time all over again, it would be better achieved that second time around, but this is not the point with learning, but rather getting some starting point with a great “product” like Gimp, and trying it yourself, once you have a method. It boils down to:

  1. Open Gimp graphical editor application
  2. File->Open … pick your image file
  3. Layer->New Layer (we’ll call “Vg”) … pick Foreground Colour
  4. In the Layers dialog, click on your “Vg” layer to select it, and select Soft light from the “Mode” drop-down box
  5. Right click on your “Vg” layer and go to Add Layer Mask. In the dialog that pops up, you want “Initialise Layer Mask to” set to “White (full opacity)”. Click “Add”
  6. Below Opacity bar select Link icon next to Eye icon, which will already be showing
  7. Use the freeform select tool (press F to bring this up) and draw a selection somewhere around the primary point of interest in your photo
  8. Use your bucket tool (Shift+B) and click within the selection to fill it
  9. Deselect your selection with Select->None
  10. Go to Filters->Blur->Gaussian Blur. In the dialog that comes up, you want “Radius” set to a very large amount; a tenth of the longest edge of the photo is not too much
  11. Click on your “Vg” layer to select it (if it isn’t already selected), and then slide the opacity slider towards the right until the effect is subtle enough. Our (ever so subtle) example of Nala, in the tutorial, used an opacity of about 66%
  12. Click Export button in two windows (NB. this overwrites the image file, so if this is not desirable, export to a different image file name and/or type)

Here is an image comparison link.

As with most Gimp ideas, jump in and give it a go, as you’ll find your own ways and means of using this great product … am pretty sure.

Gimp Transparency Primer Tutorial

Here is a tutorial that adds to a previous Gimp Layers Primer Tutorial as shown below, and gives you more insight into the massive possibilities of using a sophisticated image editor and use layers with various amounts of transparency, especially suited to use with png image files.

Today’s tutorial where we construct a Birthday Card that needs tweaking for the words in front to be seen a bit more clearly, by making the image behind a bit more transparent, changes the transparency of a single image via:

  1. Open Gimp graphical editor application
  2. File->Open Layers … pick your image file
  3. If Layers window not showing, make it show via Windows->Layers – Brushes
  4. Below Opacity bar select Link icon next to Eye icon, which will already be showing
  5. Change Opacity bar setting to a value of Transparency (100% is Opaque, 0% is Transparent) that suits … today we do 70%
  6. File->Export
  7. Click Export button in two windows (NB. this overwrites the image file, so if this is not desirable, export to a different image file name and/or type)

As with most Gimp ideas, jump in and give it a go, as you’ll find your own ways and means of using this great product … am pretty sure.

Gimp Layers Primer Tutorial

Gimp Layers Primer Tutorial

Here is a tutorial that gives you an insight into the massive possibilities of using a sophisticated image editor and use layers with various amounts of transparency, especially suited to use with png image files.

Transparency (or its obverse, opacity) can be used to have the one image achieve several “ends” (ie. purposes). Although it is a bit of a clumsy example in the tutorial, you can see that the technique can be used for artistic purposes … often called “Photoshopping” (named after the more famous, and also brilliant, rival product, Photoshop).

Lots of those classic “Photoshopping” techniques can be achieved in Gimp, and some other tutorials at this blog touch on that.

Am sure you can imagine what the concept of a layer is with regard to image manipulation. Within Gimp, for beginners not used to this concept, you find yourself underestimating and underplaying what can be achieved with the various layers of a multi-layered image. In simplistic terms each layer has the functionality in Gimp to be treated as a whole new image, and this is the best way to think of it when trying to achieve what you want to achieve with Gimp.
