Call JavaScript from XML

(2007-07-06 - views: 20433)

Q: How can i call JavaScript function from XML?

A: Nothing more simple. You have to place your JavaScript code in url param in xml like this:

 <item title="new Item" url="javascript:yourFunction('This alert is from XML')" target="_self">

In order to make this example functionable you have to set target param to indicate where is your JavaScript function is located. If you have your target = "_blank" it will search for your JavaScript function in a blank HTML page.

dispatch a click event

Yes, it is possible to dispatch a click event for the AS2 component. Just use the dispatchEvent method of the component to dispatch the desired event and you can also pass any parameters you like through the event object:

myMenu.dispatchEvent( { target:myMenu, type:"onRelease", item:myMenu.items[0], anotherParam:"value" } );

The previous example triggers an "onRelease" event on one of the menu items and also passes along a new parameter to the event handler function called "anotherParam".
