I can't verify this right now, but something like this should do in terms of copying over styles and effects from the parent context:
Var Effect = parent.Effect; // copy the effect object as provided when loading effects.js, please see the scriptaculous files for other stuff/dependencies you may need to copy for this to work. myelement.setStyle( parent.elementxyz.getStyle() ); Chris ________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Issachar Brooks Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2006 10:21 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Javawin] window resize Anyone have any help on how to call the styles and classes from the parent?

My biggest problem is how to call a scriptaculous Effect and an Ajax.Updater from the parent, then have them affect objects within the window without writing parent.Windows.getWindow('30').etc.etc. every time..., but maybe that's what I have to do...

So, using the parent is the way to go, unless you'd like to reload everything. But where's the problem in copying the style and whatever else from the parent?

In this window, I am loading a url within my own site. Within this url I would like to be able to use the css styles and loaded javascript files of the parent. For example, in the parent I have loaded PWC, Scriptaculous, and Rico and Prototype(of course), plus my stylesheet and would like to be able to make ajax requests, round corners(with rico), effects (scriptaculous) inside my window without having to reload the js files within the URL that is loaded in my window, as this would realy cut down on the efficiency of my website. Is there a way to do this? Of course, I could use the parent. object for some things, but it seems that just makes things quite complicated, calling parent everywhere. Please enlighten me... Thanks alot... _______________________________________________ Javawin mailing list [email protected] http://mail.xilinus.com/mailman/listinfo/javawin_xilinus.com _______________________________________________ Javawin mailing list [email protected] http://mail.xilinus.com/mailman/listinfo/javawin_xilinus.com
