Clay: pass an id from a clay component to a javascript function

[Darran White <Da...@opsera.com>]

Hi,

I`m trying to use a javascript function triggered by a selection change
which needs the id of the selection box.

I`m using clay which mangles the id`s and names of elements so I can`t
just use an id in my page and pass it to the javascript function.

 

I know you can set a javascript function in the   clay-config.xml for a
selectOneMenu like the following:- 

 

<attributes>

<set name="onchange" value="updateSelection(id);"/>

</attributes>

 

But how do I pass in the id of the selectOneMenu to this function??

 

regards

The way I like to do this is by passing a reference to this (the
current html element) to the javascript function

<set name="onchange" value="updateSelection(this);"/>

That will pass the <select> element and you can get its id from there.
