hi

i have a webview in my app , and the result of my app will appear in it as a Jquery Chart

how can i save the html file from this webview??

Like in windows we go to file>save As    or Using    Ctrl+s

You can’t. More precisely, I don’t think Corona SDK offers this functionality. (It should.)

You might be better off sending the HTML data-to-be-rendered to a remote server and saving it there. Of course then your app needs network connectivity to function.

thanks for reply

so it cant be done by webView

i have a html template file with jqury chart , when i want to show results, i open this file and rewrite some data in it , copy it in documents folder and pass the file adress to webview for showing it on screen.
is it possible to copy this generated Html file to somewhere in phone memory or sd card ? so user can access it from file manager??!!

I think you want to do things that Corona is not well-suited to do.
