"The gotopoint.aspx is being held and fired from the hidden scriptFrame in MapGuide. "
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the Fusion viewer has a frame called 'scriptFrame'.

Now once the page hits the line, the debugger will stop and show the line with a highlight. Then, go to the 4th tab on the right ("Show"), and type in "GetParent" and press enter. It will now show you what it thinks GetParent is (a function or null). If it is a function, try to type "GetParent()", to see what GetParent() returns. If it returns null, try to type "window", and expand the "[Methods]" item, to see what methods you have loaded/defined. Regards, Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S Fraser Burgess skrev: Thanks, I've done some more reading and think I understand. But that being said, I'm confused as to why this still isn't working. In my navigatetask.aspx is where I grab the XY and scale parameters. >From here I create a url pointing to gotopoint.aspx and pass in the XY and >scale paremeters to the URL. The gotopoint.aspx is being held and fired from the hidden scriptFrame in MapGuide. Gotopoint.aspx contains the onPageLoad function which calls ZoomToView. So since I want the script frame to interact with the mapFrame I should be able to start from the top frame and drill down like this: function OnPageLoad() { window.top.fusion.ZoomToView(<%= GetRequestParameters()["X"] %>, <%= GetRequestParameters()["Y"] %>, <%= GetRequestParameters()["Scale"] %>, true); } </script> <body onLoad="OnPageLoad()"> Or I could also use the GetParent() function which should fire at the first if (parent.Fusion) section as the scriptFrame should be one level below the Fusion frame which is essentially defined as window.top.fusion to begin with. Both these methods fire the script and open the URL passed in from Navigate.aspx in a new IE window. I can only assume this is because the reference to the mapFrame is invalid and somehow the URL defaults to opening in a new window? Do I need to reference MapGuideViewerAPI.js in this script somewhere?? - I don't think this is the case as I didn't need to do it for the mapFrame references. ----------- I tried the IE8 debugger and my code (see below) fails at GetParent().ZoomToView(605793.225947542, 5057603.85822154, 25000, true); with the error 'undefined' is null or not an object. I assume this means it doesn't know what GetParent() is. Any ideas?

The GetParent() method as defined below looks for 'Fusion' to be defined either in the direct parent or the parent of that frame. If you're launching in a new window, you'll never get to a parent that has Fusion defined. I think you need to use 'opener' instead...

When I select the link that activates this gotopoint, the URL contains the X Y and scale http://172.16.186.38/mapguide2010/UtilityMap/gotopoint.aspx?X=632593.974151717&Y=4989398.03115329&Scale=25000 which should be passed into this onPageLoad() function. However it appears that nothing is firing for OnPageLoad - so when I click the link nothing happens, no error message or anything. Can anyone help with this problem? Also, can anyone point me to something that would help explain this parent.parent. syntax? I'm not really certain why at one point we would use parent.function() vs parent.parent.parent.function() etc. Thanks again Fraser From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Berdel, Brian Sent: Wednesday, September 16, 2009 9:02 AM To: MapGuide Users Mail List Subject: [mapguide-users] RE: parent.parent.parent.mapFrame - AJAX vs FUSION If you want to add the reference to your fusion index page, add the following to your aspx (task pane) page function GetParent() { if (parent.Fusion) { return parent; } else if (parent.parent.Fusion) { return parent.parent; } } Then you can call functions in the same way as before but substitute GetParent().DigitizePoint(OnPointDigitized); Brian Berdel McMahon Associates, Inc. p: 215.283.9444 x 260 www.mcmtrans.com<http://www.mcmtrans.com> From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chris Claydon Sent: Tuesday, September 15, 2009 4:43 PM To: MapGuide Users Mail List Subject: [mapguide-users] RE: parent.parent.parent.mapFrame - AJAX vs FUSION I think you should be able to reference the MapGuideViewerAPI.js script from your aspx page, and then just call DigitizePoint directly without any window.top or parent references. It should also be possible to add a reference to MapGuideViewerAPI.js to the index.html file in the Fusion template you're using, and reference it using window.top... It's been a while since I've played around with this stuff, so someone else may be able to provide specifics...

I have been reading posts >about how this is referenced in Fusion and it seems the MapGuideViewerAPI.js >file has a bit of info. Unfortunately I'm having a bit if trouble putting the >pieces together and was hoping that someone here may steer me in the right >direction. In both AJAX and FUSION I'm working from the taskpane and using the markup scripts that are part of the AJAX demo's and tutorials. I assume I need to substitute either 'Fusion' or 'window.top.Fusion' somehow for 'parent.parent.parent.mapFrame.DigitizePoint(OnPointDigitized);'. in my script however I have yet to do this in such a way that it works. I keep getting 'Object doesn't support this property or method'. So for example in my editmarkup.aspx code for example, I have the following function which should be activated when I click the digitize point button function AddPoint() { SetDigitizeInfo(EDIT_POINT_HELP); parent.parent.parent.mapFrame.DigitizePoint(OnPointDigitized); } In Fusion this code gives an error 'parent.parent,parent.mapFrame' is null or not an object I see that in MapGuideViewerAPI.js function DigitizePoint(handler) { if (handler) { var Fusion = window.top.Fusion; var mapWidget = Fusion.getWidgetById(mapWidgetId); var digitizer = new Fusion.Tool.Canvas.Point(mapWidget); digitizer.mouseUp = PointHandlers.prototype.mouseUp; Object.inheritFrom(digitizer, Fusion.Tool.Canvas.prototype, []); digitizer.initializeCanvas(); var activeWidget = mapWidget.buttonSet.activeButton; mapWidget.buttonSet.setActiveButton(null); digitizer.handler = function() { handler.apply(null, arguments); activeWidget.setActive(true); } digitizer.activateCanvas(); //add a listener to update the position of the features var mapWidget = Fusion.getWidgetById(mapWidgetId); mapWidget.registerForEvent(Fusion.Event.MAP_EXTENTS_CHANGED, function(){ digitizer.updatePx(); digitizer.clearContext(); digitizer.draw(digitizer.context); } ); } } Thanks Fraser ________________________________ Important notice to recipients: Copies of documents that may be relied upon by you are limited to the printed copies (also known as 'hard copies') that are signed and sealed by the Engineer and/or Land Surveyor.
