Embed Page

The widget allows users to embed embeddable webpages. It is completely independent of tango devices and is a stand-alone widget for porting externally developed web-tools to bring controls and monitoring onto one platform. The widget requires the user to provide the URL of a webpage that is accessible and allows embedding.

Widget setting

The following image shows an example of a widget setting.

It is possible to customize the widget settings from the inspector panel (in edit mode), as shown below:

Input value

Description

URL for Embedding

Input for the URL of a webpage

Show Overflow Scroll

Enable scrolling

Refresh Interval (seconds, set 0 for no auto-refresh)

Defines how often the widget refreshes automatically (in seconds). Set to 0 to disable auto-refresh

The textbox requires the URL of an accessible webpage. By default ‘http’ is prepended to the URL before the webpage is loaded

Widget design

The URL provided by the user is embedded in an iframe tag and then rendered. The only pre-requisite for this embedding to work is that the web-page the user supplies, allows being embedded.

The URL provided in the settings bar is rendered and is fully interactive.
