Re: How to send images with image map to client and create widget with it

How to send images with image map to client and create widget with it
On server side i have a lib (can be modified) that produces png images and corresponding imagemap for mouse hover titles. But how to use them with gwt? I already have a little servlet that could png-images to client (on client side gwt Image objects are created and added to widgets). Due to compatibility concerns and user friendliness i don't want to use embedded images (base64) . So how to send image and map to client and how to plug it together into a widget? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: How to send images with image map to client and create widget with it
Create a DTO that describes the image map, something like: ImageMap - String: imageUrl (would point to your png-image servlet) - ListImageMap.Area: areas (calculated on server using your lib) ImageMap.Area: - ShapeTypeEnum: shape (RECT, CIRCLE, POLY) - ListInteger: coords - String: href - String: title Then create a custom widget that can render an image map using img, map and area and use the DTO information to configure the widget. If your lib creates raw HTML for the image map then you probably only need the imageUrl and the raw HTML in your DTO and render the raw HTML directly using GWT's HTML widget. But you have to do some sanity checks on the raw HTML to prevent cross site scripting attacks. So if you can, build the HTML on the client side and only transfer the needed data from server to client. -- J. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Google Web Toolkit group.

Re: How to send images with image map to client and create widget with it
thx jens So for each image to server requests are necessary: 1 to get the dto and create html with image-url 2 to get the image from servlet my hope was/is there is a way with one request/response? And indeed i get the image map as html. so my dto would be very simple: 2 Strings (url + map).
