Making of Earth Scanner Legs Tutorial

Quite often within the I.T. wooooorrrrrllllddd it is when we have an idea that is …

Just a Bit of Fun

… more than likely …

this is code for … it will end up being difficult to achieve … and in that same way …
often you’ll learn a lot trying to make it happen

What we wanted regarding yesterday’s Earth Scanner Legs Tutorial blog posting initial draft, where we had …

New York-Los Angeles

… in HTML code …

… we really wanted to prefix some content that …

Patsy Gallant’s From New York to LA via YouTube … initially envisaging just audio … but the Google Chrome web browser, at least (while others are good too) is far better than this …

We expected mobile might be different, and yes, we achieved less here, but we could open a popup the user can click a play button regarding. With non-mobile, if your browser allows the “autoplay” feature for the “rjmprogramming.com.au” domain, you only need to click the “#” link to hear Patsy sing the song once over. But there’s more with Google Chrome, at least, supplying a “right of address bar” up the top “musical notes” button leading to …

usual video and/or audio media controls …
“In Picture” playing of the YouTube video behind the audio … and/or …
“Live Captions” for that “Karaoke Feel”

… and so, that was all a pleasant surprise for us, because, of course, there were “Internal Use Only” issues. We’d not noticed a “Mixed Content” call we were making in amongst our “YouTube Video Interfacing Karaoke Style Play” web application code in the changed stop_start_youtube.html helper of the changed karaoke_youtube_api.htm inhouse YouTube video interfacer, and we needed to add in logic for the use of a new “justaudio” argument.

That’s one part of the equation, and the other was back at the blog posting “code” element coding, as below, where its HTML innards became …

Earth Scanner Legs Tutorial

Of course, yes, there’s a part of me that hoped today’s tutorial in its thread of related blog postings, would line up with the 11th draft of our Earth Scanner web application of yesterday’s Earth Scanner Hashtag Lists Tutorial, and then we could have made some lame joke about “Legs 11”, but we’ve grown up a lot since then, and even some reference to “Legs XI” can’t quite bring us around. Enjoy the sobriety (until the 11th draft, that is)?!

So, the “legs” we’re referring to today are like a …

Trip Leg

… a concept of interest to lots of people. Most of us make trips every day, and in our Earth Scanning web application we harness the great Google Directions link to make suggestions about how you might undertake your trip leg. It’s a simple case of replacing any commas in your (perhaps timezone) list with minus sign(s) to start seeing trip legs, such as …

#New York-Los Angeles

… either at the Javascript prompt window or with the address bar hashtag arrangements, which might end up calling …

… and putting this into play we realized we should slow down animations to give users a chance to consider whether they want to “drill down” into finding out more about the “trip legs” as user defined.

This happens in our changed seventh (boo hoo) draft Earth Scanner web application.

Before yesterday’s Earth Scanner TimeZone Tutorial, when we presented Earth Scanner Places Tutorial we intimated with …

… and into the future we have another idea regarding how this operates.

… that we might offer another way for the driver of our latest Earth Scanner web application …

not only depend on a webpage click event Javascript prompt window means by which to control proceedings, including newly coded for comma separated list logic support … but, also, as of today, after proving it could work (because we can’t remember ever depending this much on a “hashtag on the address bar” arrangement, in the past, before) …
but also allow similar functionality using hashtags on the address bar of the web browser, and able to be changed dynamically (ie. in real time) by the user, as required …
if (prevhash != decodeURIComponent(('' + location.hash).replace(/^null$/g,'').replace(/^undefined$/g,'').replace(/^\#/g,''))) { thishash=decodeURIComponent(('' + location.hash).replace(/^null$/g,'').replace(/^undefined$/g,'').replace(/^\#/g,'')); //.trim(); for (var iop=0; iop<plotplace.length; iop++) { thishash=thishash.replace(plotplace[iop], ''); } var thishs=thishash.replace(/\ to\ /g,',').trim().split(','); if (thishs[0].trim() != '') { for (var ipo=0; ipo<thishs.length; ipo++) { if (newlist == '') { nlist=thishs[ipo].replace(/\+/g,'').trim(); //.trim(); newlist=thishs[ipo].replace(/\+/g,''); //.trim(); prefnew=thishs[ipo].replace(/\+/g,' ').split(nlist)[0]; if (eval(1 + ipo) == eval('' + thishs.length) && thishs[ipo].replace(/\+/g,' ') != (prefnew + newlist)) { //alert(98); suffnew=thishs[ipo].replace(/\+/g,' ').split(newlist)[1]; } } else { nlist=thishs[ipo].replace(/\+/g,'').trim(); //.trim(); newlist+=',' + nlist; //.trim(); if (eval(1 + ipo) == eval('' + thishs.length) && thishs[ipo].replace(/\+/g,' ') != nlist) { suffnew=thishs[ipo].replace(/\+/g,' ').split(nlist)[1]; } } } } prevhash=decodeURIComponent(('' + location.hash).replace(/^null$/g,'').replace(/^undefined$/g,'').replace(/^\#/g,'')); //.trim(); if (newlist != '') { //alert('newlist=' + newlist + '|'); gdefv=prefnew + newlist + suffnew; //alert(gdefv + '!'); if (1 == 1) { askfor=gdefv; if (1 == 7 && ('' + askfor).replace('(','').replace(')','').replace('[','').replace(']','').indexOf(',') != -1) { ameridian=''; acircleoflatitude=''; enforcedlong=false; enforcedxp=-999; } document.getElementById('myimg').click(); gdefv=''; setTimeout(scmove, fivethousand); return null; } else { ourprompt(null,'Earth Scanner - RJM Programming - February, 2024 ...

Suffix with space to show meridians and/or prefix with space to not show meridians.', newlist); } } }

And we did find this an easy way to build up a sizeable number of plotted places, in quick time, entered as …

the “P” and “N’ and “A” and “C” shortcuts (near to where the user clicked) ways
timezone place name(s)
country name(s)
country code(s)
[longitude,latitude,placename]
[longitude,latitude]
longitude,latitude,placename
longitude,latitude (with some form of mantissa)

… methodologies to end up with at least a pin (📍) emoji plotted, as well as the “longitude,latitude (with no form of mantissa)” way to just move the map to that position with no plotting taking place.

But now that we have a few “data players” in the mix, there’ll be users out there that do not want to see it all, perhaps … and so, now “the blurb” goes, for user entries, in either of these modes of use …

… at prompt ++ can make delay between snapshots slower and — can make delay between snapshots faster

… comma lists of TimeZone places and/or Country Codes (2 letter) and/or Country Names can be plotted via click or via hashtag usage up at address bar

Earth Scanner TimeZone Tutorial

Take a look at the word …

TimeZone

… as a concept newly introduced into the Earth Scanner web application workings, as explained in yesterday’s Earth Scanner Places Tutorial.

It’s got a “where” word part “Zone” fitting in with our “where of life” ideas up to now, but it also has got “Time” as a new “when of life” word part of the whole idea of TimeZones we’d like to start exploring today. Yes, TimeZones are very useful to have “where” meet “when” … the Opera Bar would be nice, we think.

We now have …

… referencing three new when “collectables” …

var plottz=[]; // contains a TimeZone name
var plotct=[]; // contains a current datetime timestamp
var plotemj=[]; // contains a current datetime clockemoji of nearest relevance

… now used in an amended plotting span element innerHTML (used to be plotplace[iplot]) “wrapper” (now using doplotplace(iplot)) …

function doplotplace(ipl) { if (plotcc[ipl].trim() && plottz[ipl].trim() != '') { return plotplace[ipl] + ' ' + orflag(plotcc[ipl]) + ' ' + plotct[ipl] + ' ' + plotemj[ipl]; } return plotplace[ipl]; }

… in our changed fifth draft Earth Scanner web application.

Earth Scanner Places Tutorial

So far, with our Earth Scanner web application from the day before yesterday’s Earth Scanner Lines Tutorial, it had a pretty passive modus operandi. On a plane or on television or some other “just watching” scenario that suits, but we’d like to offer more regarding value adding …

new Place plotting functionality that the user has real-time control over via onclick logic reaching a …
Javascript prompt window

… and into the future we have another idea regarding how this operates.

So today, though, we change how that Javascript prompt window’s “blurb” is constructed, and how the user answer is analyzed, because, today, we’ve added in …

PHP inspired TimeZone place lookup logic within the Javascript code

Of course not all places are TimeZone places, and we’ll see how that goes into the future?!

We funnelled the Javascript prompt window logic into a new “wrapper style” Javascript inhouse function …

… as the best way to get into how this happens in Earth Scanner Primer Tutorial, in our changed fourth draft Earth Scanner web application.

Earth Scanner Lines Tutorial

Not everybody is a geography buff. But I’d say more people attended primary school than are geography buffs. And those people may have seen World Maps on the wall, and they were often Mercator Projection maps featuring the usual country and sea boundaries, as well as useful reference lines …

lines of latitude, including, in between top “North Pole” 90° N and “South Pole” 90° S bottom …
1. Arctic Circle 66° 34′ N
2. Tropic of Cancer 23° 26′ N
3. Equator 0°
4. Tropic of Capricorn 23° 26′ S
5. Antarctic Circle 66° 34′ S
meridians of longitude (only the Equator above, is as long as … and in the “Go Figure, Mercator” realms, the North Pole and South Pole are each of zero length, in “non-projection land”), including …
1. Greenwich Meridian 0°
2. International Date Line 180° (but in practice, broken up so as not to confuse regarding timezones for some Pacific island countries)

… that become useful as you scan your way around Earth, further to yesterday’s Earth Scanner Primer Tutorial, in our changed second draft Earth Scanner web application.

Stop Press

Couple of points to note …

the linework is just hr (Horizontal rule) elements, which are not the challenge either horizontally or vertically, regarding linework, that any diagonality brings …
the matter of screen width and screen height, which we need to know precisely for the work above, can be more involved to calculate on mobile platforms … we ended up, with great help from this useful link, with this Javascript code …
var screenwidth=screen.width, screenheight=screen.height; var wasthisso=''; if (navigator.userAgent.match(/Android|BlackBerry|iPhone|iPad|iPod|Opera Mini|IEMobile/i)) { try { wasthisso=('' + window.orientation).replace(/^0$/g, 'portrait'); //"portrait"; } catch (ehgfg) { wasthisso=''; } if (wasthisso == '') { try { wasthisso='' + screen.orientation.type; //"portrait"; } catch (hgfg) { wasthisso=('' + window.orientation).replace(/^0$/g, 'portrait'); //"portrait"; } } //alert(wasthisso); var hdone=false; if (wasthisso.indexOf('ortrait') != -1) { // thanks to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50690191/window-innerheight-returning-wrong-value-in-ios-11 if (eval('0' + document.documentElement.clientWidth) >= eval('0' + window.innerWidth)) { screenwidth=eval('' + document.documentElement.clientWidth); screenheight=eval('' + document.documentElement.clientHeight); hdone=true; } else { screenwidth=window.innerWidth; } if (!hdone) { if (eval('0' + document.documentElement.clientHeight) > eval('0' + window.innerHeight)) { screenheight=eval('' + document.documentElement.clientHeight); } else { screenheight=window.innerHeight; } } } else { if (eval('0' + document.documentElement.clientWidth) >= eval('0' + window.innerHeight)) { screenwidth=eval('' + document.documentElement.clientWidth); screenheight=eval('' + document.documentElement.clientHeight); hdone=true; } else { screenwidth=window.innerHeight; } if (!hdone) { if (eval('0' + document.documentElement.clientHeight) > eval('0' + window.innerWidth)) { screenheight=eval('' + document.documentElement.clientHeight); } else { screenheight=window.innerWidth; } } } // alert(wasthisso + ' ' + screenwidth + 'x' + screenheight); if (1 == 6) { documentURL=documentURL + '&nolines=y'; if (documentURL.indexOf('.html') != -1) { location.href=document.URL.replace('.html','.htm'); } } }
