As seem here, I have been able to get the contents of the <script> tags to execute. This can allow for code to be downloaded and executed automatically.
It works and has been tested in ns4.75 / IE 5.5 (only browser I have access to.
Current limitations:
- requires java.
(mac IE java does not contain required
classes and will not work)
- limits allowed urls to only be from same server.
(java security limitation, can be
overcome by signing the applet
which will require a secure certificate
and I don't have one)
Advantages:
- execute javascript without the need for additional
code to handle it.
- more stable as it uses java and the layer's
setHTML() method
- Smaller code than LoadPanel
- Less objects created as it only needs to load
the single applet
instead of a series of listeners
and loaders.
Future Expansion:
- Almost able to use it to dynamically load
API modules after inital load.
This can mean that addtional modules
can be loaded as needed and destroyed
afterwards. Eventually the
page will not need to reload to add additional
widgets.
