http://developers.pando.com/update-pando-installed Comments for "Update: Is Pando Installed?" en http://developers.pando.com/update-pando-installed <p>When integrating Pando on a web page, it is often helpful to know whether a user has Pando installed already or not (for example, to decide whether to use pando protocol URL prefixes like <code>pando:subscribe</code>). We track Pando's installed status using a browser cookie, but only pando.com domains can read this cookie. We made available <a href="/pando-installed">an http redirect tool</a> for detecting Pando's installed status. This worked but is a somewhat fragile and cumbersome to implement.</p> <p>To make this more seamless, we added a method to our javascript API (<a href="/javascript-access-pandoapi-js">PandoAPI.js</a>) called <code>hasPando</code> to allow any web page to use javascript to modify the page depending on the status of the installed cookie. I put together <a href="/using-pandoapi-js-installed-cookie-check">a detailed example</a>. Enjoy! Feedback is appreciated.</p> Tue, 31 Jul 2007 15:26:32 -0400 scott 189 at http://developers.pando.com
