Calling app.js et2_ready function

[Ki_Setargilop]

Hi,

I have this new js function, new.js, and I put it in the infolog app. Everytime I run this js so i can call values of span in the infolog index (1796), it will return empty because the js is running before the whole infolog nextmatch is fully loaded. I try to add the js code inside the et2_ready function in the app.js and it went well. I don’t want to override the existing app.js file so I created a new js file.

How will I know if the et2 is ready before executing my code for getting the span value, the header count. Any thoughts?

Thanks.

There’s no way without patching EGroupware code currently.

I could imagine a static etemplate2 method registering an additional
et2_ready callback, which get called for every template ready in that
window context. So you would do something like the following in your
javascript file:

etemplate2.register_ready_callback(function(_et2, _name){

}, null);

Until we have such a method, you need to call your et2_ready callback
from app.infolog.et2_ready().

Feel free to send me or Nathan a patch implementing such a callback in
etemplate/js/etemplate2.js.

etemplate2 will also fire a general load event on the template’s DOM
container, using normal jQuery, when the template is ready using:
$j(this.DOMContainer).trigger(‘load’, this);

So if you can get a reference to the DOM Node, you can use normal jQuery to
bind to its load event.
