send a quhyperlink in a qudiv?

[Anonymous]

Another question...
Is there a way to send a quhyperlink in a qudiv?
My code looks like:
>
function test() {
//here I want to send a quhyperlink in a qudiv, a similar way as send_quinnerhtml do
}
qudiv("test");
>eof

Thx.

Sorry, I have to explain myself better. I DO NOT want to send a quhyperlink link send_quinnerhtml sends html, BUT I want to be able to send a quhyperlink inside some html code through send_quinnerhtml...
So my code looks like:
>
function test() {
$output="HTMLblabla";
$output=/give_me_a_quhyperlink_code(hyperlinkname,array(params))/;
$output.="HTMLblabla";
send_quinnerhtml("test",$output);
}
qudiv("test");
>eof

I think this should be better.
Let me know if there is a way to do this.

Thx a lot,

Sure, its very possible. You can just send regular HTML to the div.

[CODE]
function test() { 
$output="HTMLblabla";
$output="<a href='URL' name='newHL' id='newHL'>LINK NAME</a>";
$output.="HTMLblabla";
send_quinnerhtml("test",$output);
} 
qudiv("test");
[/CODE]

And you can still access 'newHL', example:
send_qudisplay("newHL", "none");

Best regards.

Hi again,

Sorry, but I think you did not get the point, even if your answer is really informative. I may explain my self better.
I do not want to use qutags just to display or hide a hyperlink. I want to insert a real quhyperlink, that, when you click on it, then it generates a call to a PHP function on the server side. I do not want to call an url with the link.
I have 3 panels. The first is a list of elements. The second is a detail view of one of those elements. The third is a form to add one element to the list. On the first panel, elements are represented by a hyperlink, that, when you click on, update the content of the second panel. This works great. But I do not know how to add one item to the list of the first panel when I complete the third form.

I hope this make things clearer.

Best regards,

BrokenClock

I understand more now. You can add the qurpc function call.

[CODE]
function newHL_click() {
send_jscode("alert('quhyperlink clicked')");
}

function test() { 
$output="HTMLblabla"; 
$output="<a href='javascript:void(0)' onclick=\"qurpc('newHL', 'newHL_click')\" name='newHL' id='newHL'>LINK NAME</a>"; 
$output.="HTMLblabla"; 
send_quinnerhtml("test",$output); 
} 
qudiv("test"); 
[/CODE]

Best regards.

Ok, it works great now, exactly as I wanted. Thanks for that.
But can I suggest you something? The result code is a little ugly, and not easy to maintain. The send_qu* functions are so nice that I think it should be really better that if you add to quTags some twin functions that instead of directly print the result, return it as the result of the function.
I mean:
quhyperlink() directly print the formated hyperlink. Why not write a function just return the result?
Should be something like:
[CODE]
function gimme_quhyperlink() {
  //PHP BLABLA
}
function quhyperlink() {
  print gimme_quhyperlink();
}
[/CODE]
If you do so for all quTags, it will give it a powerful loopback feature. And it seems easy to do.

Let me know what you think.

Best regards.

It prints instead of returns the output because I want to enforce the use of qu* functions on the front end and not in the server to client messages.

Thanks for your feedback and please add it as a suggestion if you really would like to see it implemented.
