Nested Elements

The remote A tag supports nested param elements. <ww:param name="" value=""/>

Handling Results

  • Currently the remote a will try to evaluate the results as JavaScript. So the action defined in href should return a javascript snippet that will be executed upon return. Th
  • The afterLoading method is called after the the above javascript gets evaluated. The afterLoading javascript does not currrently have access to the returned data.

Example

Code Block

<ww:a id="'link1'" theme="'ajax'" href="/DoIt.action" errorText="'An error ocurred'" showErrorTransportText="true"><img border="none" src="<%=request.getContextPath()%>/images/delete.gif"/>
    <ww:param name="'id'" value="'1'"/>
</ww:a>

Results in:

Code Block

 <a dojoType="BindAnchor" evalResult="true" id="link1" href="/DoIt.action?id=1" errorHtml="An error ocurred" showTransportError="true"></a>

Here is an example that uses the postInvokeJS. This example is in altSyntax=true:

Code Block

  <ww:a id="test" theme="ajax" href="/simpeResult.action" preInvokeJS="confirm(\'You sure\')">A</ww:a>

Notes

  • SITEMESH NOTE: Remember that if you want your results to be executed... and your using sitemesh... you must NOT decorate the request w/ sitemesh.
