Hello everyone,
Hope you're all in a good mode today :)
I was just thinking, is it possible for use to ever
create widgets that can be downloaded after a page has
been rendered?
AfroAPI uses java to do a similar task, but what about
doing something like this:
dummywidget=new initWidget()
dummywidget.onload=function(e){
mywidget=Widget()
//bla bla code for mywidget
}
The above widget could use LoadPanel to download the
following widget html file (widget.html):
<form name="widgetscript">
<textarea name="widgetcode">
Widget=function(){}
Widget.prototype.method1=function(){}
Widget.prototype.method2=function(){}
Widget.prototype.method3=function(){}
</textarea>
</form>
Async-widgets could be registered using sometime like:
DyAPI.Register("Widget","widget.html")
this could then create a wrapper function called
Widget() that when created would load the widget.html
file(using loadpanel or similar) and trigger the
onload event:
DyAPI.Register=function(wname,wfile){
var src="function(){\n"
+"var new lp=LoadPanel();"
// event listener code here
+"lp.onload=function(e){\n"
+"eval(e.getSource().doc.widgetscript.widgetcode.value);"
+"}\n"
"}"
eval(wname+"="+src)
}
Any thoughts, ideas, improvements, etc?
