dojo div

NOTE: Ajax template (Dojo plugin) is deprecated and won’t be supported any longer.

Description

This tag generates an HTML div that loads its content using an XMLHttpRequest call, via the dojo framework. When the "updateFreq" is set the built in timer will start automatically and reload the div content with the value of "updateFreq" as the refresh period(in milliseconds). Topics can be used to stop(stopTimerListenTopics) and start(startTimerListenTopics) this timer.

When used inside a "tabbedpanel" tag, each div becomes a tab. Some attributes are specific to this use case, like:

Examples

Simple div that loads its content once:

 <sx:div href="%{#url}">Initial Content</sx:div>

div that reloads its content every 2 seconds, and shows an indicator while reloading:

 <img id="indicator" src="${pageContext.request.contextPath}/images/indicator.gif" style="display:none"/>
 <sx:div href="%{#url}" updateFreq="2000" indicator="indicator">
   Initial Content
 </sx:div>

div that uses topics to control the timer, highlights its content in red after reload, and submits a form:

 <form id="form">
   <label for="textInput">Text to be submited when div reloads</label>
   <input type=textbox id="textInput" name="data">
 </form>
 <sx:div 
      href="%{#url}" 
      updateFreq="3000"
      listenTopics="/refresh"
      startTimerListenTopics="/startTimer"
      stopTimerListenTopics="/stopTimer"
      highlightColor="red"
      formId="form">
  Initial Content
 </sx:div>
