send_to_host_tutorial

Now the last thing is building the javascript code into HTML PAGE.

1) we load the Cult3D.js into the header page, just copy and past this part of code.

<HEAD>
< script language="javascript" src="Cult3D.js"></SCRIPT>

2) We detect if the Cult3D .CO project is loaded, just copy and past this part of code.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=javascript FOR=CultObject EVENT=OnLoadFinished>
if (isActiveX())
{
finishedLoading(this);
}

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=javascript FOR=CultObject EVENT=OnSendMessage>
if (isActiveX())
{
receivedMsg();
}
< /SCRIPT>

3) If the Cult3D .CO project is right loaded we get the Send Message TO Host.

function finishedLoading(refObject)
{
if (typeof(Cult3D)=="object")
{
return;
}
Cult3D=new Cult3D_Object(refObject);

if(Cult3D == null)
{
alert("Cult3D variable could not be initialized!");
}
else
{
isLoaded = true;
}
}

4) we doing a bit of string split (remember when you split a string each part is stocked into an array and break by a comma)

var Chaine = Cult3D.getLastMessage();
We get the Cult3D messages into the variable calledChaine.

resultat = Chaine.split(",")
We SPLIT the var Chaine with the comma and put result into var resultat.

document.form.tracker_X.value = "X : " + resultat[0];
document.form.tracker_Y.value = "Y : " + resultat[1];
document.form.tracker_Z.value = "Z : " + resultat[2];
document.form.tracker_Msg.value = "Msg : " + resultat[3];
Now we get the SPLIT array result like this :

resultat[0] is the X position.
resultat[1] is the Y position.
resultat[2] is the Z position.
resultat[3] is the message from clicked objects.

and send it to an HTML form to display the results.
}
}
< /SCRIPT>
< /HEAD>

For the rest this is only a bit of HTML code to show the Cult3D .CO project and the FORM to display the results.

The easy way to use this tutorial is just copy and edit the INDEX.HTML file and replace the Cul3D .CO project name and run it ;)

That's is the end of this tutorial, don't hesitate to contact me for more information's or another wanted tutorial ;)
