Picture in Picture Now users can keep an eye on web video while they multi-task on Mac. Picture in Picture lets users float a video window from Safari over their desktop or full-screen app. Users can play video in any corner of their desktop and resize the window to see more or less of what’s behind it. The window stays put even if they switch desktop spaces. The default HTML5 video player in Safari automatically supports Picture in Picture.

And if you use a custom video player, it’s easy to add a Picture in Picture control using the JavaScript presentation mode API. Safari Extensions on the Mac App Store For the first time ever, you can sell and distribute Safari Extensions through the Mac App Store. The future of extensions development takes place in Xcode, where you can bring new capabilities to your extensions using powerful native APIs and familiar web technologies. Aurea Nothing Left To Say Download Mp3. Xcode makes it easy to create Safari Extensions using App Extension templates. And if you’ve already developed an app, it’s easy to give users access to your app’s functionality and content, right in Safari. • HTML5 and Legacy Plug-ins in macOS To deliver faster load times, better battery life, and stronger security, Safari is optimized for HTML5, and will load this content whenever it is available.

For websites that use proprietary formats, Safari supports the use of plug-ins such as Flash. In Safari 10, plug-ins are supported for websites where HTML5 is unavailable and may be enabled by users for each individual website. Users can choose to enable plug-ins for one session or every time they visit a specific website. For frequently-visited websites, enabled plug-ins will remain active. For infrequently-visited websites, plug-ins will be disabled.

Content Blockers on macOS If you previously created Content Blockers for Safari on iOS, you can easily bring them to macOS. You’ll be able to distribute and sell Content Blockers through the Mac App Store. Just like the new Safari Extensions, Xcode makes it easy to create Content Blockers using App Extension templates. Autoplay and Inline Video on iOS To help users easily discover your video content, you can now autoplay videos and play them inline with other content on your webpages on all iOS devices. Safari supports autoplay on iOS devices for videos without sound, keeping down the number of distractions on the web.

Jquery.fileDownload.js Library jQuery File Download is a cross server platform compatible jQuery plugin that allows for an Ajax-like file download experience that isn’t normally possible using the web. • in action with some different examples • • – Send me a pull request! • Download v1.2.0 – • You’ll need jQuery 1.3+ installed.

• Fully tested on: • Internet Explorer 6 – 9 • Firefox 11 – reasonably sure it will work on earlier versions • Chrome 17 – reasonably sure it will work on earlier versions Features • Brings control back to the developer by exposing a “successCallback” and “failCallback” that allows the developer to control the user experience in either situation. • In conjunction with jQuery UI a developer can easily show a modal telling the user that a file download is occurring, disband the modal after the download starts or even inform the user in a friendly manner that an error has occurred. See the for an example of this. • File downloads don’t occur in the current window’s location bar. This means if a failure or something unexpected happens the user doesn’t leave the current page they are on or even have to see an ugly error message. This is critical for a good user experience especially on a highly Ajax application.

A classic problem with browser file downloads – Error handling In a general case a file downloads occur after a user clicks an link. The href in the instructs the browser to browse to the locationindicated. This is equivalent to setting the window.location of a page using JavaScript. When the response comes back the can contain many different things (in fact almost anything).

Here are some examples: Normal, HTML Response. As you may have guessed from that ugly highlighter color we’ve got trouble here. The response from a file download error is generally no different from a normal HTML response, the only difference here is that is has an error message as HTML content. The browser will now happily replace your existing page and address with the new error message.

Not only have we now displayed an ugly error message to the user but we have also caused them to leave whatever page they were on. Imagine you have created a nearly exclusively Ajax site like Gmail. A response like this from the server will cause your entire DOM to be replaced by an error message. Imagine this happening to you in Gmail and having to load up everything all over again. My current role creating the framework for a highly Ajax application (like Gmail) inspired me to write this plugin for all to use – “web applications” is where the web is going anyways so there has to be a better way Another classic problem with browser file downloads – “Happy path” user experience I probably just caught you thinking this: “well so what my site never has any problems that cause error messages” fair enough, but consider this: • What is the response time of your web site in terms of serving up static files? Is it instantaneous? Is a user going to immediately look in the far corners of their screen for some sort of a spinning indicator or might they get confused or angry based on their technical prowess?

Maybe they are looking at one of these? (I hope not or you’ve got bigger issues) • What if you are serving up a dynamically generated file (perhaps a report of SQL data?) based on user input that may take a few seconds. An average user might expect some sort of indication of what is going on.

At the very least from a developer’s perspective it’d be nice if it wasn’t easy for them to hammer the download link a few times (to make it faster of course) wasting cycles across an entire n-tiered application. I’ve got a solution just use Ajax to download it! Unfortunately this is not possible due to one key problem: • JavaScript, by design, doesn’t have the ability to perform lower level tasks on a users computer out of security concerns. Initiating file download prompts is one of these limitations. You can certainly use an XMLHttpRequest object to download a binary (or otherwise) file but there is nothing you can do to the response to somehow get it saved on the user’s computer.

Flash doesn’t have this limitation, but we really don’t want to get into Flash do we? Enter jQuery File Download jQuery File Download overcomes all of the aforementioned limitations of a “normal” browser file downloads. Well how the heck does that work?

The concept is nothing new in fact: If you browse around the web you will find plenty of forum posts discussing the same technique, I just wasn’t able to find a succinct easy to use plug-in to do it hence my decision to create this plugin. The answer is: An iframe and cookie What?! I have to rely on Web.1 technology to make my Web 2.0 Ajax application user friendly? Turns out this is the magic bullet combination to work around normal limitations of file downloads, here’s how: iframe An iframe (which is generally a mortal sin of modern web development) can exist in a DOM but in most respects is treated like an entirely different window. By dynamically inserting a hidden iframe into the DOM and setting its location to the desired file path we can initiate a file download just like it was occurring in the main application window. This directly gets us around one of the nasties of file downloads – if an error occurs the user has now been forced off of the page they were on (which may contain an Ajax application like Gmail) to see an ugly error message. Like a normal file download in the main window an iframe will never fill with content when a successful file download occurs.

It simply contains an empty DOM. Well how do we detect what is going on if nothing happens when the file download is successful. Well this is where the cookie comes in: cookie + iframe Since the creation of cookies exists in HTTP headers, which is standard fare for all web requests and responses, we can actually write a cookie to indicate that a file download has been initiated properly (instead of an error page). The response from the web server will now look something like this. While we can’t directly tell if a file download has occurred we can check for the existence of a cookie which is exactly how jQuery File Download works. Once a download is initiated on the iframe a configurable duration poll of cookies and the iframe contents occurs. If the iframe fills with contents then we know a file download has occurred (in most cases, make sure to set a!).

If the cookie gets written then we know to stop polling and kill the iframe because the file download dialog/ribbon has been displayed. Using jQuery File Download – JavaScript jQuery File Download is easy to use in the simple case but also allows for various callback options as well. Don’t forget to add the required cookie code in the next section! Very simple code demo. Use of the very simple approach only protects you from the page changing in the event of a file download error. This alone is pretty useful. If an error occurs the user gets an alert() dialog that says “A file download error has occurred, please try again.” You can see this demoed under the “Barebones – jquery.fileDownload.js” heading.

I wouldn’t recommend using this option given a much better experience is only a few more lines away Impractical code demo of commonly used features This just demos what you could do but I’d highly recommend against it unless you want confused and annoyed users. This will result in an alert() dialog telling you a file download initiation has just occurred for the specified URL. If a failure occurred it will display the attempted URL and error message in a dialog. Hi John, I’ve been using this plugin for some months and it has worked fine so far. Unfortunately in the last couple of days I had some problems with very large files (over 2 GB). Is this a limit of the plugin or what can I do to make it support larger files? Just some more info you may need: web application uses java 7, runs on tomcat 7 and the file is a zip built dinamically starting from files in a given directory.

I noticed the zip had a size according to log of bytes which is the max integer value in Java (even though fileLength field is defined as long in my class), the real size of the zip was in fact some MB more than that, so I guess its value was cut due to some hidden conversion from long to int. Can you suggest any way to avoid this problem? Because so far plugin worked very well and I certainly wouldn’t want to find another solution based on something else. Thanks in advance •.

Looks very promising! Nevertheless I’m trying to use it in a special scenario, and I’m not sure it’s even possible to achieve to use it the following way: I would like to rely on your code to handle data that have already been downloaded! Actually, I’m using a client control that performs xhr post callbacks with it’s very own post variables. I would like to perform the same post request as the control but with additional variable, but the control does not allow it easily The best I can do, is use the control to generate a callback with my additional variables But then, I have the HTTP response containing the downloaded file, that I would like to pass to $.fileDownload! Is there a way I could use your library just to reuse the presentation mechanism of downloading/downloaded data with data I actually download by my side? Thanks, be blessed j.-p. • Pingback: •.

Hi John, I am using your plug-in and it works like a charm. However, I am facing an issue.

Hope you could point me in a write direction to fix it. Most of the time the plug-in works fine, but sometimes it just closes the progress dialog box without giving any file to download.

On further digging, I found out that while writing the file to response object it throws following but sometimes it throws following exception: The remote host closed the connection. The error code is 0x800703E3. TARGETSITE: Void RaiseCommunicationError(Int32, Boolean) STACKTRACE: at System.Web.Hosting.IIS7WorkerRequest.RaiseCommunicationError(Int32 result, Boolean throwOnDisconnect) at System.Web.Hosting.IIS7WorkerRequest.ExplicitFlush() at System.Web.HttpResponse.Flush(Boolean finalFlush, Boolean async) at System.Web.HttpResponse.Flush() There seems to be couple of reasons for this as suggested in some forums, user navigates to some other page or closes the browser. In my case none of the above reasons is true. Please advise me on the best way forward. Regards, Gaurav •.

Hello John, Ive used the plugin couple of times and has worked like charm. Currently I am using the plugin to download an excel file which would get created from the data retrieved from the database. I am using java servlets. The download is working fine but I wanted to send some specific messages back to javascript. Is there anyway I can do that from within your script? Or use exiting parameters to get the data sent from the server as JSON string?

Whatever I send back is getting embedded within the iframe that gets dynamically added but with a delay. There is no way I can determine whether the file was literally created or not. Do let me know if I am not very clear or missing something. Thanks, Girish •. Hello john, I am creating an application in Zend Framework 2 using your plugin to give feedback to the user after completion of downloading a report.

I’m finding an error. I use the console to identify whether the download has completed or failed (‘done’ or ‘fail’). In some requests the plugin returns “fail” even download being completed or being in progress. Also encounter difficulties in downloads when the browser opens a window to choose the file directory. At this time returns fail. This is a bug in Chrome. These errors only occur when using Apache server.

When I use the PHP internal server it does not give this error. Any idea what may be happening in both cases? This may happen when you have a jQuery.noConflict() function call somewhere (it happened to me two weeks ago because of such a call in Superfish). NoConflict is a very useful function when the page already uses another JavaScript library/toolkit that had “$” already mapped to something. However, when jQuery is your main toolkit, the function call has the unwanted effect of leading to the “$ is undefined”. The reason is that noConflict returns the “$” identifier to whatever was its value before jQuery bound to it during its initialization.

See the documentation. You should search the JS code that your page loads for a noConflict call and maybe remove it. Alternatively, and it’s much simpler, you can replace “$.fileDownload” with “jQuery.fileDownload”. Hello John, thank you for your work. I have implemented your ajax plugin, it works in google chrome and firefox, but in internet explorer 11, I have the following error when I do click to the button relationed with the file download plugin.

I return the file like in the examples of your web. Is compatible this plugin with IE11? Hi, I have a problem when using this in IE and Safari. Works fine using FF and Chrome. But in IE and Safari no download window appears. It goes to the success section in the code but still no download window. Could it have anything to do with that that I recently added contextPath to my site?

According to IE’s network tab it doesn’t seem to get any response headers from server: ProtocolMethodResultTypeReceivedTakenInitiatorWait‎‎Start‎‎Request‎‎Response‎‎Cache read‎‎Gap‎‎ (Pending)POST(Pending)(Pending)0 B(Pending)click16828032800-13953 But still the plugin finds that filedownload cookie. Hello John i really appreciate your contribution, i am happy about that.please i have some couple of your favor to ask. I am currently testing your sample API with my java app, i am using java-restful web service + glass fish as the server,i also use jquery Ajax i imbedded into my HTML to consume the restful web service.i tried jQuery file Download API, in my case it dose not work and i do not know how to set the header in this case.

Please if you wouldn’t mind could you be of help to me in this challenge? I thank you again for your contribution co-operation in this field. Hello, I have a controller written in PHP which creates a zip file from some given files and fires up a download dialog in the browser in the template file upon the click of a button.

I retrieve back the data from the controller with a jQuery ajax success event which reads the json data provided by the controller. I want to have a progress bar in the template file which reflects the download dialog in real time and which closes when the download is complete. Is this possible with jQuery.fileDownload? I set up a cookie in the controller when the zip file and zip url is created, but when I click the button in the template file, the download fires up but the download iframe stops, not reflecting the download process in real time Thank you! • Pingback: •.

Hi, I can’t seem to get onSuccess to fire on client side. Server side I do add fileDownload cookie in header. Hi John, First of all, great Plugin, and Excellent post! Can I use it without MVC callback? But ordinary asp.net button onclick event? I means, I have asp.net button with OnClick event that on postback to server side I’m loading the file data from DB.

I want $.fileDownload to access my btnDownloadFiles_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) event and download my dynamic load file. I allready have implemented btnDownloadFiles_Click with Response.Write(fileData); All I need is how to combite $.fileDownload with btnDownloadFiles_Click event? Thanks for the plugin! I’m having issues with safari downloading pdf’s. They stay opened at the hidden iFrame, don’t know why! I used the headers, but if I force the download (example: Content-Type: application/force-download), It downloads the php page, not the pdf document!!!

When I look for the hidden iFrame, it has the following headers: Content-Type: application/pdf. I imagine that Safari just opens the pdf instead of downloading it! With other file types it works great and Firefox saves my pdf’s just as expected. Hi Great plugin! I do have a question though: I want to perform various other ajax operations while the download is in progress (my downloaded file takes a while to create on the server). On the server I keep track of how much progress the 'file building' has made. After my call to $.fileDownload() I want to regularly call another ajax.get method which will let me update a progress bar with accurate values.

At the moment (unless I've configured it wrong), any ajax calls I make after $.fileDownload() are queued up and only get executed after the file download has completed. I've even tried adding a $.get() call inside the 'checkFileDownloadComplete' function, but it still gets queued. Is there any way to achieve this functionality? Hi John, First of all thank you for the wonderful script. Saved a lot of time in exporting the file to Microsoft Excel and download the same from the server. Though I could force download the file which was opening the file dialog, I was looking at an option where the download success message was displayed on the user screen. You script help me do it.

I did have a small glitch in the code. In your example for PHP you have set the cookie name to be 'fileDownload' and its value to 'true'. For some reason the condition where the cookies are checked for equality failed (ver 1.3.3 line # 304). So I got the PHPSESSID cookie value and set the same for the options in the script. Now the onSuccess call back got a hit.

But unfortunately, the cookie was being removed and this used to expire my session. I commented out the cookie removal code and its working fine. I am yet to test further to see if there is any issues in commenting out the code in your script.

Looking forward to your suggestions and any corrections to the approach I adopted. Thanks, Girish •. Hi John, First of all thank you for the wonderful script.

Hi John, great plugin, and indeed very useful. Tested v1.3.3 on OSX 10.7.5 – FF 16.0.2 and Safari 6.0.1.

I tried to throw an error response for the form example (in my case, the php file echoes some html as a warning for no data to be downloaded): – OK in FF – in Safari it looks like the try/catch part in checkFileDownloadComplete() (line #318) is never reached, being always intercepted by the preceding check for cookie existence (line #302). Switching the order of the two statements everything works fine. Is it me or anybody else had the same behavior? Thanks, Gianni •. Hello John, I am having a few problems using the code from your 'Custom rich user experience – jquery.fileDownload.js & jQuery UI Dialog'. The modal dialog opens and the file download completes, but the dialog box does not close.

It is not clear that the successCallBack function is ever called. The response header for the downloaded file has the appropriate settings for the cookie, as you describe in the documentation, so I'm not sure what might be broken. Also, the text 'We are preparing your report, please wait' never appears in the dialog. This behavior is true for both Firefox 15.0.1 and Chrome. Thanks, Bill •. Hello John, I am having problems with getting the dialog to close.

Files are successfully downloaded, but the dialog remains open after the download. I am using the code snippet from your 'Custom rich user experience' that employs the 'preparing-file-modal' divs. The cookie is correctly returned in the response header, so I don't believe that is the problem.

Also, the text in the dialog 'We are preparing your report, please wait.' Does not appear. This problem occurs in both Firefox 15.0.1 and Chrome.

Any clues on what I should be checking would be appreciated. Thanks much, Bill •. Very interesting plugin and it works for me except for IE7.

Trouble in my case is, that the download may be empty, in which case failCallback is used. In IE7, however, this is not enough. After a lot of trial/errors I managed to copy your examples completely and found out that with error code 500 for empty response it works OK in all my browsers. Foton Tractor Service Manual. But the question is – is there any other way how to treat empty download differently? What if real error occured on the server – then I can't distinguish it from empty response (which I have to mask as 500). I originally tried 404, which was probably deep misunderstanding on my part – this rather refreshed the whole page in the browser.

I'd welcome any suggestions as I'd love to use this plugin in our future works, it seems quite reliable when I stick to 500 code for errors and the experience is just great. Users just can't be talked out of wanting to disable buttons and then enable them again, so we have to use something like this.

.and here i am again. Upon further debugging, i understand the issue here. Since i'm making two requests, first to my app server for the generated s3 url, second to s3 using that generated url, the iframe disappears. Here's why: on the first call to the app server, set-cookie downloadFile=true happens, which checkFileDownloadComplete sees and kills the iframe before it can start downloading from s3. But you can't set cookies from s3, so is there a solution here? I'm new to javascript and jquery so i'm not sure. If i don't ever set that cookie, i can use the basic functionality of this plugin, but i would like to use the advanced functionality if i can.

Hey john, thanks so much for jQuery filedownload, it's great. I'm stuck on a problem with it and hope you can help, wasn't sure if a message or a post would be better. My files are stored in s3 buckets. – i generate the s3 auth url on my app server and then pass that url to $.fileDownload(). – app server sets the cookie fileDownload=true when it returns that generated s3 url – i have s3 returning the correct content-disposition: attachment header to force download.

But no file download is initiated. If i hit that s3 generated link in a new tab, it downloads correctly. If i try $.fileDownload() on a file that is served directly from my app server (where i set-cookie fileDownload=true) the download is initiated correctly. I can't set-cookie from the amazon s3 server. Does that mean i'm out of luck?

Or is there another way to approach this? Does the set-cookie header have to happen in the same response that serves the file •. This tool is really useful. I have it working but it would seem that it doesn't work for ALL extensions of files. At least that's my conclusion after trying to download 5 files with the same name but different extensions. Some were downloaded but to the others appeared the 'A file downloaded error ' box and didn't download. And it's happening a funny thing in IE.

When I request the download, the save box shows up but also the error box (when downloading known extensions). Apart form that, nice work!

Howdy, Just wondering if anyone else has noticed an intermittent failure with this plugin when using Firefox? This is with a 'straight' out of the box Firefox install (v13.0.1, in case anyone is interested), and no extensions added. I'm seeing this *only* on Firefox. Chrome, Opera, Safari and, yes, even IE(!) work just fine.

It's easily reproducible for me on the demo page (). 1 in about every 8 clicks on the top 'Report0.pdf' will fail silently – that is, the 'We are preparing your report, please wait' dialog disappears but no file save download dialog appears.

There is absolutely no indication that anything has gone wrong apart form this. When the failure occurs, it's not permanent, and clicking on the link again usually gets me the file (but it still fails intermittently afterwards). I've tried to figure out what's going on by installing the FireBug extension and debugging, but I can't track down the difference between the successes and failures. The flow of execution seems the same in both cases. Having said that, I have noticed that: a) the presence of the FireBug add-on *seems* to increase the number of failures b) if I remove the call to kick off the checkFileDownloadComplete on line 286 of v1.3.0, the problem *seems* to go away (but then, of course, the success/fail callbacks never happen) c) similar to (b), if I increase the checkInterval beyond the length of time the file takes to prepare on the back end, the problem seems to go away. For example, if my test file takes 5 seconds to prepare, and I set the checkInterval to 10000 (i.e., 10 seconds), then all is good.

B) and c) indicate a problem with the checkFileDownloadComplete() method, but it all looks very innocent to me. Also, it could just be that I have been lucky and not seen it under those conditions – the usual problem with the intermittent problems It'd be useful to know if anyone else has noticed this issue! Apart from this, the plugin is very clever and most awesome – great work! Not sure if I've done this right. I have a gaming site and i'm trying to use your script to give the.exe installing apps a better experience for all the reasons you noted. I've included your modal dialog version of the script.

What I'm not sure is about the server side cookie. I use a redirect script to track all the download requests in PHP. Prior to setting the header location, I'm setting the cookie to your PHP line above. What happens on IE is that the download script reports a failure, but successfully executes the request.

On the Mac (which is not really needed at this moment, but will be later) it flashes the processing dialog and doesn't execute the download at all. My question is, do I need to set the cookie AFTER the file download has queued or finished? I would have to write a proxy streaming script to know when its done since I'm linking outside my site. Not a big deal, but not something I saw noted in your example. Hey Jeelig, Thanks for the feedback. If you are using PhoneGap that actually makes a bit of sense since it probably sees the IFRAME come in (how I implemented this thing) and point at a URL.

Without it knowing any better it probably just spawns up a browser to deal with that event since IFRAMEs are generally junk (except in this one case, ha!). Take a look at this forum post I found to help clarify: Unfortunately this is probably permanent so you may need to find a different solution (perhaps using native code in the device you are targeting even?) Let me know if/what you use to get this figured out! Hi Ronnie, Thanks for the feedback. Funny thing: I actually noticed the same behavior in IE Tester IE8 mode, the dialog didn't come up. I have fully tested in native IE 6-9 installs and everything appears to work properly in my demo. IE Tester is a pretty cool thing for high level testing (I use it for starters on everything that I need cross IE browser support) but sometimes it gets a little weird with things so I'll always finish off testing in a native install. Too bad you can't run multiple IEs on a single box right I'm updating the post to include tested browsers.

Let me know if you notice anything else or can think of some cool features to add!
