Customizing FotoWeb 3.0
// Enumerate history events and pick the last FotoWeb Workflow event
var lastFwEvent = "";
var currEvent = "";
// "FWW" represents a Workflow event
if(currEvent.indexOf("E=FWW") > -1)
{
lastFwEvent = currEvent;
}
// Check if an event was retrieved
if (lastFwEvent != "" )
{
// Extract date from the event
var dateIndex = lastFwEvent.indexOf("D=");
// Cannot be -1 ! But we check any way
if (dateIndex != -1)
{
// Create date object for event date. Parameters are Year, Month, day where
month is 0-indexed.
var eventDate = new Date(eval(lastFwEvent.substr(dateIndex + 2, 4)),
eval(lastFwEvent.substr(dateIndex + 7, 2)) - 1, eval(lastFwEvent.substr(dateIndex + 10,
2)));
// Get difference with today's date. The difference is in milliseconds.
var difference = Math.abs(new Date() - eventDate);
// Convert to number of days
var days = Math.round(difference / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
document.write('');
if (days == 0)
{
document.write('Recently used');
}
else if (days == 1)
{
document.write('Last used ' + days + ' day ago');
}
else
{
document.write('Last used ' + days + ' days ago');
}
}
}
Example 49: Marking used images.
Using this example, we can display a string along with the images on when they were last used in a workflow
process. Other events that are written by FotoWeb are download events (FWD) and soft crop events (SCRP).
4.4 Creating loops
Repeating a section of code for a certain number of times is also possible in FotoWeb. This is done by using the
‘Repeat’ tag as follows:
Current loop value:
In this example we are creating a loop with a start value of 1. The loop will count up to a value of 10 and display its
current count during each iteration.
