I'm trying to display images from my remote server in an app using phoneGap along with jquery(mobile) and PHP.
I read from the doc that this function does the job:
FileTransfer
Here: http://docs.phonegap.com/en/1.6.0/cordova_file_file.md.html
// !! Assumes variable url contains a valid URI to a file on a server and filePath is a valid path on the device
var fileTransfer = new FileTransfer();
fileTransfer.download(
url,
filePath,
function(entry) {
console.log("download complete: " + entry.fullPath);
},
function(error) {
console.log("download error source " + error.source);
console.log("download error target " + error.target);
console.log("upload error code" + error.code);
}
);
My problem is that I don't know what should be the file path to get to the root of my app ? And the major issue (which is the reason I've created this post) is that I read from within the doc that
It is also possible to download a file from remote and save it on the device (only iOS and Android).
Which is a problem to me ..
So what shold I do, can I just give the image url from the server to the src of my image in my phonegap app ? will that work ?
Thanks
