SureFox iOS now comes with built-in set of Javascript APIs. Embed them in your web application to perform variety of actions such as refreshing the page or resetting SureFox Idle Timer.
In order to use these methods, make changes in your web page by making functions as: window.location = “sfcallback:reload”
List of methods available:

Syntax |
Description |
| reload | sfcallback:reload | Reloads current page |
| home | sfcallback:home | Go to Home or Run at startup page |
| resetSureFoxIdleTimer | sfcallback:resetSureFoxIdleTimer | Resets the Idle Timer of SureFox |
| getuuid | sfcallback:getuuid:printuuid | Get Device Unique ID |
Examples:
Reload Current WebPage onClick():
<html>
<head>
<style type=”text/css”>
</<style>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
function refreshNow()
{
window.location = “sfcallback:reload”;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div >
<span style=”width:116px;margin-bottom:10px;”
onclick=”refreshNow()”>Refresh Now</span>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Go to Home Page / Home Screen onClick():
<html>
<head>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
function goHome()
{
window.location = “sfcallback:home”;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div >
<span style=”width:116px;margin-bottom:10px;”
onclick=“goHome()”>Go Home</span>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Reset SureFox IdleTimer: In example, on page load a timer starts which calls “resetSureFoxIdleTimer” after the given time interval. If the SureFox IdleTimeout value is more than the interval, this script will cancel SureFox Idle Timer.
<html>
<head>
<script type=“text/javascript”>
function resetSureFoxIdleTimer()
{
window.location = “sfcallback:resetSureFoxIdleTimer”;
}
var count = 30;
function autoResetIdleTimer(){
setInterval(function(){
if(count==0){
resetSureFoxIdleTimer();
count = 30;
}
count–;
},1000);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload=“autoResetIdleTimer()”>
</body>
</html>
Get Unique Device ID : Once the function (printuuid) mentioned below gets implemented, we can do anything with the UUID. In our example, we have done an alert. Give any function name (printuuid, printUUID, print1 etc.) however not name the function as “print“ (it will call the print function of the browser).
<html>
<head>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
function getUUID()
{
window.location=”sfcallback:getuuid:print1″;
}
function print1(uuid)
{
alert(uuid);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<button onclick=”getUUID()” style=’width:50px;height:50px;’/>
</body>
</html>
