dynapi-help — List relating to using the DynAPI, bug reports, and suggestions

Re: [Dynapi-Help] list question (dynapi 1)

[Brandon M. <bnd...@ho...>]

Sure.. just creat your own widget based on that select widget.
If you can improve on what we already have, great. The API is always in need
of improvement.

Re: [Dynapi-Help] Borders

[Brandon M. <bnd...@ho...>]

I have wrote the BorderFactory widget, included in long ago releases, which
allows custom borders to be created, and dynamicly assigned to DynLayers.

It has been debugged, enhanced with the SuperClass object, and will be
available soon.
Layers to which it is assigned do not have a requirement of using the
SuperClass.

RE: [Dynapi-Help] Problems with IE mousepointer

[Matthew S. <PK...@Tu...>]

Instead try this for a link...

<a href="#" OnClick="someFunction();return false">Link Text<a/>

using "javascript:" causes many problems, one of which is the one you are
having.  Don't forget the "return false" it needs to be there.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

I know this is not really the place to ask this question, but I don't
know where else to post it... with several of my scripts I have a
problem with the IE mousepointer when you click on a link that executes
a script; an hourglas next to the mouse pointer, even though the page
has finished loading. Anyone know the reason for this? This usually
happends when I use "javascript: void(0)" in the HREF of a link.

The "javascript:" protocol is probably still seen by the browser as
being a request.  Try using onClick instead and see if that helps.

Re: [Dynapi-Help] list values instead of list indexes?

[Dan S. <dy...@fu...>]

I have a partially rewritten List object which needs to be updated a tiny bit to work with the latest DynAPI release.  However I think indexes are enough for most cases (though I think it should be returned as an array).  You can just build a custom listener, which does whatever you need with the selected indexes.

The dynapi example for a multiSelect List does this:

  }

What I would like to do is something like this:

RE: [Dynapi-Help] Repeat - mem leak question

[Matthew S. <PK...@Tu...>]

I have experienced this as well.  I was assuming it was a problem with IE
5.5.  I don't have a fix for you but I thought you might like to know you
are not the only one.  My page is quite simple.  It only uses one inline
layer.  Yet after 15-20 reloads I get the same delay in rendering that you
mentioned.

Subject: [Dynapi-Help] Repeat - mem leak question

Folks,

I apologize if this message turns out to be a repeat, my email has been
precarious today.

First, please let me echo the comments of everyone here who has thanked the
developers of this great package. It's a great learning tool as well as a
useful package.

I'm using the popup widget to display nested menus in a simple web
application, and I'm having a problem with Internet Explorer. Every time I
load the page containing the popup it takes a bit longer to load, and every
time Internet Explorer 5.5 uses about 2 megs more of RAM. After loading the
page 15 or 20 times it seems that the page loads instantly from the server,
but there's a delay of 7 or 8 seconds before the browser displays the top
popup. (This is on a 400MHZ P2.) (IE4.5 on the Mac never does get enough ram
to display my popups even once. Netscape seems fine.)

I've tried adding alert()'s to the onDelete functions of the various
dynlayer-derived classes and verified that they're being called. If I can't
fix this problem I'll have to scrap what I've done and use something other
than these routines, and I don't want to do that.

Does anyone else have this experience? Is there a workaround? I know there
was a memory leak in innerHTML in IE 5.0, but it's supposed to have been
fixed.

Thanks!

Andrew Forber

[Dynapi-Help] list values instead of list indexes?

[Jason W. <jwe...@ci...>]

The dynapi example for a multiSelect List does this:

  for (i=0;i<mylist.items.length;i++) {
   if (mylist.items[i].selected) str += i+'\n'
  }

What I would like to do is something like this:

 for (i=0;i<mylist.items.length;i++) {
  if (mylist.items[i].selected) str += mylist.myvalue+'\n'
 }

With 'myvalue' being the text that is displayed in the list, or better yet,
an argument defined by mylist.add.

Is something like this possible?

Thanks,
Jason

Re: [Dynapi-Help] making object copy not reference

[Brandon M. <bnd...@ho...>]

You'll be happy to know that I have built a Clone() method into my
SuperClass object that I am hoping to release soon. It is only a shallow
copy. It is simple to override the clone method in order to properly clone
the properties that you know should be copied further.

The great thing here is that all objects who use SuperClass as their "Super"
class inherit a TON of functionality. (Docs and examples will explain it
all.)

[Dynapi-Help] Borders

Hi,

I am new to the DynamicAPI, but I am impressed with what I have tried so =
far.  When using Div's I like to place a colored border.

eg:
style=3D"BACKGROUND: lightslategray; BORDER-BOTTOM: lightsalmon 2px =
solid; BORDER-LEFT: lightsalmon 2px solid; BORDER-RIGHT: lightsalmon 2px =
solid; BORDER-TOP: lightsalmon 2px solid; HEIGHT: 251px; LEFT: 27px; =
POSITION: absolute; TOP: 45px; WIDTH: 541px"

Could you tell me how I can achieve this using the Dynamic Layers?

Hope you can assist.

Re: [Dynapi-Help] targeting a loadpanel with a form

[Tarun R E. <ta...@we...>]

Didnt clearly understand : is it Netscape or IE or both thats giving the
problem ?

When faced with this kind of a situation, I usually use a different (and
safer) design  :
I keep 2 frames : one hidden( rows and cols as zero) and the other as the
main frame. When I want content to be loaded into any widget, I submit a
form in the hidden frame that then retrieves the HTML content from the
server into a textbox.
Then I use JScript to read this textbox, and update the widget in the main
frame with the contents of the textbox.

Yeah! I know its a bit messy, however its more reliable, and you can
abstract the details with a little bit of savvy.

[Dynapi-Help] ScrollPane Fixed! Nothing Wrong with it!! Everyone was making the same dumb mistake!!!!

[Tarun R E. <ta...@we...>]

Duh!
        I feel like  a chump! The answer was starting at us in the face.
Just replace the variable 'scroll' with any other variable say 'bingo' for
example and presto everythings suddenly fine and jeez, to think that I
wasted an entire day over this!!!

Learned one lesson though -- never keep the variable name as "scroll" -- it
conflicts with something in Internet Explorer.

And by the way Andrew, you cant put a "var" in front of the ScrollPane
reference, that will make it a local variable instead of a global one.

Thanks Dan! There was nothing wrong with your widget after all!

RE: [Dynapi-Help] new to DynApi 2

[<abe...@al...>]

im in the same situation. We need some more documentation however, i assume
we all are very busy people... We have troubles.

well, right now im wondering how to capture keyboard events (using an
structure similar to events.js) and how to manage (if it is posible) the
onfocus event... Actually i don't know how to generate onfocus event using
the cursor arrows, as long as i know, theres no way in wich a DynLayer can
receive focus.

i remember a tutorial for DynApi that describes the ways of capturing
keyboard events (im going to it right now)... but what about onfocus?
somebody can giveme any reference?

thanks!.

Subject: [Dynapi-Help] new to DynApi 2


I'm new to this version of DynApi and am having trouble getting to grips
with it. I downloaded the link that Dan provided:

http://fury161.dyndns.org/dynapi-2000.11.07-danwidgets.zip

but didn't see any clear cut files showing me Scrollpane, Scrollbar, Button,
Label, ButtonImage and PushPanel. Am I overlooking something? Can someone
point me in the right direction.

I found the tutorials on dansteinman.com for the original DynAPI dynlayer
very useful in learning everything but have not found anything like that so
far for DynAPI 2.

I need help basically in the knowledge of how images are swapped in this new
version within layers and how to do the scroll window.

Help?!

[Dynapi-Help] targeting a loadpanel with a form

[Cameron H. <ca...@bi...>]

Hi,

I am trying to use loadpanel to firstly load a form from another html file
(this works okay). The next thing I want to do is submit the form using the
POST method and have the form response load back into the loadpanel. I did I
test using a plain html version and I could get IE to load the form response
into a named IFRAME, I didn't have any success with Netscape though. I
haven't managed to get this to work using loadpanel though, loadpanel
doesn't appear to name the IFRAME, and even when I tried hard coding a name
in the code, IE still didn't recognise it.

What I want to know is has anyone tried and succeded in doing such a thing?
It seems like sending the form data using GET would work, but is it possible
using POST?

Thanks,

Cameron.

[Dynapi-Help] images.js

[R. S. F. <sf...@ps...>]

Can anyone provide an example of how to use the functions in 
images.js? I'm guessing these are for pre-loading but I can't make 
out how it works.

Thanks.

[Dynapi-Help] onclick problems with Netscape 4.7/Windows?

[Ed M. <Ed...@to...>]

I've got some inline layers doing some very simple event handling.  I'm
capturing onmouseover, onmouseout, onmousemove, and onclick events.  All is
fine in IE and in NS EXCEPT that the onclick event just doesn't happen at
all in Netscape.  The other mouse events seem to be fine, so it doesn't
appear to be some broader problem getting the events.  But when I click,
nothing happens.  Code is below - I've modified it just to pop up an alert
whenever there's a click.

Test page is at
http://test.topozone.com/maptools/xdynamap.asp?lat=26.7462&lon=-80.0359&s=25

Thanks!

RE: [Dynapi-Help] Help with ScrollPane

[Andrew M. <and...@vi...>]

I too am looking for a working ScrollPane, I have found that replacing this
line in dynapi.gui.scrollpane.html :

scroll = new ScrollPane(label1)  // label1 will be set as the content

with :

var scroll = new ScrollPane(label1)  // label1 will be set as the content

at least displays the ScrollPane, but then the setSize and setContent don't
work, hmmm... any ideas?
