Re: [Dynapi-Help] Catching events on the document

[Richard Bennett]

There's two things, Your first include          DynAPI..include('dynapi.api.*'); has a dot to many.   And you don't have a reference to the DynAPI object because you are outside the onload event, so the event listener is being added before the onload has fired. Like this it should be ok:   -------------------code start---------------------    <script language="JavaScript" src="../dynapi2_51/dynapi/src/dynapi.js"></script>  <script language="Javascript">     DynAPI.setLibraryPath('../dynapi2_51/dynapi/src/lib/');      DynAPI.include('dynapi.api.*');   DynAPI.include('dynapi.event.*')   DynAPI.include('dynapi.gui.label.js')   DynAPI.include('dynapi.gui.list.js')   DynAPI.include('dynapi.util.thread.js')   DynAPI.include('dynapi.util.pathanim.js');   DynAPI.include('selectList.js','./')      DynAPI. {    select1 = new selectList('test')    DynAPI.document.addChild(select1)        DynAPI.document.events = new EventListener(DynAPI.document)    DynAPI.document.>    alert('test')    }   DynAPI.document.addEventListener(DynAPI.document.events)  }  </script>     ----- Original Message ----- From: Ben Empson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 19, 2001 1:07 AM Subject: [Dynapi-Help] Catching events on the document I am building a select list widget, and I wish to catch the mousedown event on the document, in order to close the select box if it is open. I have tried the following code, but I get an error saying 'DynAPI.document is null or not an object' (referring to the first line of the EventListener).   This doesn't make since I have already added my select list widget to the DynAPI.document object as a child (haven't I?!!!)   Any help appreciated, Ben   -------------------code start---------------------    <script language="JavaScript" src="../dynapi2_51/dynapi/src/dynapi.js"></script>  <script language="Javascript">     DynAPI.setLibraryPath('../dynapi2_51/dynapi/src/lib/');      DynAPI.include('dynapi.api.*');   DynAPI.include('dynapi.event.*')   DynAPI.include('dynapi.gui.label.js')   DynAPI.include('dynapi.gui.list.js')   DynAPI.include('dynapi.util.thread.js')   DynAPI.include('dynapi.util.pathanim.js');   DynAPI.include('selectList.js','./')      DynAPI. {    select1 = new selectList('test')    DynAPI.document.addChild(select1)        DynAPI.document.events = new EventListener(DynAPI.document)    DynAPI.document.>    alert('test')    }   DynAPI.document.addEventListener(DynAPI.document.events)  }  </script>   --------------------code end----------------------------
