Trying to move data between a window and a webview

Hey, So i'm trying to move data from a window which calls a webview, to the webview itself.

Maybe i'm going about it the wrong way, because i'm really trying to get the webview to access data from a local database (sqlite).

So here is where i extract the data from the database, and set it as global.

// Opens on the chart view
var view = Titanium.UI.createWebView({
  url:('../data/local_webview.html')
});
 
var db = Ti.Database.install('data.sqlite','data');//location of DB
var rows = db.execute('SELECT name, sales FROM products');
var dataString = "";
var labelString = "";
while (rows.isValidRow())
{
    labelString += rows.fieldByName('name');
    dataString += rows.fieldByName('sales');
    rows.next();
    if (rows.isValidRow()){
        dataString += ';';
        labelString += ';';
     }
};
var dataArray = dataString.split(';');
var labelArray = labelString.split(';');
Ti.App.myData.labelArray = labelArray;//assigning global
Ti.App.myData.dataArray = dataArray;//assigning global
 
//
// add to parent window
//
Titanium.UI.currentWindow.add(view);

As you can see, i'm extracting the data to a string, and then converting the string to an array. I then put that array in the ti.App namespace (probably not a great idea, but it should work...)

I then access the data in the html file (could be the source of the problem) like this...

window.onload = function ()
  {
    data = Ti.App.myData.dataArray;
    labels = Ti.App.myData.labelArray;
   }

Have you tried to use (Titanium) events?

Ok, so the way i went about solving this was to include the js file that was defining the variable. something like:

< script src="../data/file-to-include.js"> </ script >

Now i'm free to reference the data in the webview. I'm not sure if i can edit the data from the webview, and that changes will be persistent. Either way, this solves my problem. Well, one of them! :-)

Have you tried

var view = Titanium.UI.createWebView({
  url:('../data/local_webview.html'),
  data:dataArray,
  label:labelArray
});

then use

window.onload = function ()
  {
    data = view.data;
    labels = view.label;
   }

This is how you pass data between windows, not sure if it works with webviews of not. the view.data may be wrong, it may be another syntax... Worth a try!
