The argument to the second callback is an HTML canvas (like the one
supplied to any #renderContentOn: method), and the callback is
executed asynchronously whenever the item selected changes. Whatever
html is generated will be used to update the contents of whatever
element in the page has an id matching that referred to by the mid
variable.
As a simple example, try:
html div
id: 'foo';
with: [
html anchor
onClick: (html updater id: 'foo'; callback: [:h | h text:
'Clicked']);
with: 'Click me']
