A way to force a markDirty from Javascript?

Hi list,

I'm looking for a way to force a widget to mark itself dirty by using client-side Javascript.

Creating a url for [ self markDirty ] and putting it into an href attribute is not enough, for our particular needs it should be put inside an onclick attribute instead.

Is there a way to do so?

Thanks!

Bernat.

Re: A way to force a markDirty from Javascript?

Disregard my question, just found out my way around it:

| actionUrl |

actionUrl := (self context urlBuilder urlForAction: (self session registerActionFor: [ self markDirty ])) asString.

h div onClick: 'iliad.evaluateAction("' , actionUrl , '")'

So, after all, building a URL was the right way to go...

Cheers!

What about this:

self onClickDo: [ self markDirty ]

It will attach the callback on the onclick event.

Note that you can do this on any event:
#on: anEventString do: aBlock

Yup, but it had to be part of an onClick: argument, as in:

h div onClick: (something ifTrue: ['do.something()'] ifFalse: ["my problem"])

Thanks :)
