Ok, to answer my own question, it was a jquery/javascript issue. Instead
of removing dom, the approach that works is to use appendTo instead:
$('.actionbuttons').appendTo('.btns');

Hi,
I'm using jquery datatables which allows customization of table header
by creating html in javascript via dom attribute which creates a div :
$('#datatable').dataTable({
dom: 'topdropholderpostponebtnsholdeript',
language: {
info: _START_-_END_ of _TOTAL_,
search:
},
aaSorting: [],
aoColumnDefs: [
{'bSortable': false, 'aTargets': [ 0, 4, 7 ] }
],
'iDisplayLength': 12
});
$('.btns').html('buttonclass=btn btn-primarytype=buttonSend/button');
However I need these buttons to be server-side actions.
My naive solution was to create additional wicket links on the page:
div class=actionbuttons
button wicket:id=cancelclass=cancel-order-btn
btntype=buttonCancel/button
button wicket:id=sendclass=btn btn-primarytype=buttonSend/button
/div
and then at the top of my page:
script type=text/javascript
$(function() {
updateDataTable();
});
/script
where I have
function updateDataTable() {
$('#datatable').dataTable({
dom: 'topdropholderpostponebtnsholdeript',
language: {
info: _START_-_END_ of _TOTAL_,
search:
},
aaSorting: [],
aoColumnDefs: [
{'bSortable': false, 'aTargets': [ 0, 4, 7 ] }
],
'iDisplayLength': 12
});
var html = $('.actionbuttons').html();
$('.btns').html(html);
$('.actionbuttons').remove();
}
}
However, the send button when clicked needs to refresh the panel with
an updated data table. So I have:
add(newAjaxSubmitLink(send) {
@Override
protected voidonSubmit(AjaxRequestTarget target, Form? form) {
container.addOrReplace(createDataTable());
target.add(container);
target.appendJavaScript(updateDataTable());
}
});
Now this works the first time when the page loads. It removes the DOM
section with wicket-ized links to the DOM section of the datatable.
Clicking send results in an updated table. However, when I click
send again, although the display looks good and it has replaced the
DOM, the links seem to have no events associated and it doesn't do
anything. I wonder if a disconnect is going on with the wicket event
registration...
Is there a better way to do this, or am I missing something?
Thanks, Jason
