Hello,

how does PPR replace content in the dom of the page. I know that PPR uses an 
IFrame. But how is the data loaded into the IFrame copied into the main page?

I guess it could be realized this way:

1.) Load new HTML markup into the IFrame.
2.) Copy the new markup in the Iframe to the main Frame using .innerHtml

Roughly speaking, yes, though it's a lot more complicated than that.


Am I right or is it done using another mechanism? If I'm right and I have a component whose 
renderer generates markup containing <script>alert('Test');</script>

This scriptlet would first be executed after loaded into the iframe. And would 
be executed a second time if the ppr mechanism has copied it into the main 
frame. Is this correct?

No, it's actually more clever than that - as long as you write out the
script element using ResponseWriter.startElement.  My memory's gotten
a little fuzy on the details - you may
also need to call writeAttribute("defer", Boolean.TRUE, null).  But,
at any rate, the script
is blocked for execution in the iframe, then executed in the main page.

When I get the chance to rewrite the code to use XMLHttp instead of an iframe,
this gets a bit easier in some ways (a bit harder in others).

If yes, how can I generate a javascript in a renderer which is called after the 
markup is copied into the mainframe and not in the iframe? Is there a special 
trick I can use in a component using PPR capabilities? I would like to do it 
the Trinidad way, because I would like to donate my DragAndDrop component (as 
soon as it works) back to Trinidad.

Jochen
