may i ask a naive question?

I saw many solutions in this wonderful forum. Many of them consist of the following lines:

var obj = new Active.Controls.Grid;
obj.setProperty("column/count", 5);

or var obj = Active.Controls.Grid;

May I know where should I insert the code regarding this 'obj'? Currently I am writing php and also mess up with javascript. Do I need to modify the activewidgets.php ? or in the basic.php?

Thanks a lot !

I am not using php, just pure HTML with JavaScript, but from looking at the two examples in the distribution:

basic.php is an example for a HTML page that uses the activewidgets.php per the include:

<!-- ActiveWidgets PHP functions -->
    <?php include("activewidgets.php") ?>

activewidgets.php is an example how to externalize the most activewidgets coding into an file that then can be included (see above).

Regarding the obj question:

In activewidgets.php look for function activewidgets_grid: where ever you see $name you can substitute it in your mind with obj. The obj is created at the beginning of the code and passed to that function.

Hope that helped.

Thanks a lot!

I add the following lines in activewidgets.php to enable the onclick event and popup an alert. However, I have not seen any effects. Am I wrong at some points? thanks

$html = "<"."script".">\n";
$html .= $columns;
$html .= $rows;
$html .= "try {\n";
$html .= " var $name = new Active.Controls.Grid;\n";
$html .= " $name.setRowCount($row_count);\n";
$html .= " $name.setColumnCount($column_count);\n";
$html .= " $name.setDataText(function(i, j){return ".$name."_data[i][j]});\n";
$html .= " $name.setColumnText(function(i){return ".$name."_columns[i]});\n";

$r = "row";
$src = "src";

$html .= " var $r = $name.getTemplate(\"row\");\n";
$html .= " $r.setEvent(\"onclick\", function(){this.action(\"myAction\")});\n";
$html .= " $name.setTemplate(\"row\", $r);\n";
$html .= " $name.setAction(\"myAction\", function($src){alert($src.getProperty(\"item\/index\"))});\n";

$html .= " document.write($name);\n";
$html .= "}\n";
$html .= "catch (error){\n";
$html .= " document.write(error.description);\n";
$html .= "}\n";
$html .= "</"."script".">\n";

Hi,

I am using php too, I could resolve the onlcick event by adding this line to the code.

In my case I open a new window, if you want to display an alert change where it says window.open... and write your javascript code.

$html .= " $name.setEvent('onclick', function(){window.open('url','mywindow','width=300,height=300, resizable=no, left=600');})\n";

Now I'm trying to restrict it to only fire the event when one cell is clicked and not everyplace in the row
