is it possible to somehow create a url to return the contents of a panel

Hi - hopefully I can explain this clearly...

I understand that I can use the AjaxEventBehavior to refresh the contents of any components that I have on the screen or add new components.

I am trying to use a tooltip to display additional details for grid data.  I plan to use a tooltip library which supports retrieving content via an ajax call.  The question is: how (or is it possible at all) can I take a Panel and get a url that would return the contents of that Panel.  I'm probably not explaining this well so, here is an example:

AbstractLink link = createLink(IModel rowModel);

Private AbstractLink createLink(IModel rowModel) {
                // I need to return a URL which would contain the contents of the additional details panel
                // for this particular row in the grid

                // the tooltip library will use the href attribute of this link to dynamically retrieve the contents of the tooltip when displayed
}

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Joe

1) I just want to return straight HTML (not contents within the
<ajax-response> node)

return to where? to broser?
target.appendjavascript("document.body.innerHTML = '"+resultHTML);

how I could show a dynamic tooltip with data retrieved using ajax?

target.appendjavascript("Wicket.$('"+myLabelComp.getMarkupId()+"').alt = '"+
myNewTooltip+"'");
( alt or title... any tag attribute you need to change)

RE: is it possible to somehow create a url to return the contents of a panel

Posted by Joe Hudson <Jo...@clear2pay.com>.
So, it is looking like I could do something like this:

        Link<String> link = new AjaxLink<String>(componentId, new Model<String>("View Details")) {
            @Override
            public void onClick(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
			String resultHTML = convertPanelToHTML();  // I understand this

			// how can I override the target response with the result HTML?
            }
        };

1) I just want to return straight HTML (not contents within the <ajax-response> node)
2) I need the link to return the contents directly (not handle the contents with the Wicket ajax javascript code)

Is type of behavior possible?  If not, does anyone have any other ideas as to how I could show a dynamic tooltip with data retrieved using ajax?  Thank you very much.

Joe

RE: is it possible to somehow create a url to return the contents of a panel

Posted by Joe Hudson <Jo...@clear2pay.com>.
Thank you so much for the response, that was very helpful.

So, I've got half of the equation figured out but now, I have the issue of how to generate a URL that call a component that allows for a straight HTML response.

Here is the issue now:

Component someMadeUpAjaxComponent = ... {
	onClick(AjaxRequestTarget target) {
		// return the component output 
	}
}

1) Is there a component (the someMadeUpAjaxComponent) that I can get a URL for which will trigger the onClick method
2) I need to attach the URL for the component to a link - not add the component directly - is this possible?
3) Given an AjaxRequestTarget, is there any way I can write out the HTML response (as opposed to adding components for rendering)?


Because, the result will look something like this:
<a href="{the AJAX URL that will respond with the component HTML content}">View Details</a>

I will then attach a tooltip to this link which will know that it can take the href attribute of the link to obtain the tooltip content.

Thank you very much for any help you could offer.

Joe

search this list for how to generate emails with wicket.  there are a bunch
of posts of that sort.  that will teach you how to render a component to a
string.  this could be used to return the contents.
