t5: updating a zone during loading of page?
Hi,
Zone has to be updated by an actionlink or a form, is there another way?
here is what I intend to use:
1. when page is loaded:
< t:zone t:id="content" show="slidedown" update="show" >Loading, please
wait.. < /t:zone>
2. the template retrieves some other info from the server thru ${moreInfo}
which takes a longer time, I'd like this to go into the zone above so it
overwrites the 'loading, please wait...'
any hints to accomplish this? Thanks.
A.C.

Hi,
the effect I want is, it shows wait messages first, then the image
overwrites that area, ProgressDisplay does not work in this case, I ended up
using javascript.

Hi,
atleast the example you gave, the image is _not_ loaded using ajax. The html
is, which triggers the browser to download and display the image, right?
In the example you gave, the ${myimagestreamresponse} returns the URL that
can be used to download the image, not the actual image. So -> the
progressive display downloads only that tag, updates the view and _then_ the
browser starts to download the image.
t:ProgressiveDisplay initial="block:waitmsg"
img src="${myimagestreamresponse}" /
/t:ProgressiveDisplay

Ps. If you ever solve this please reply to one of these messages as I'm

Hi,
Seems not working, image generation takes a while, that's the reason I'd
like to display 'waiting...', now I can get the jpeg stream in an ajax call,
problem is how to display it?

Re: t5: updating a zone during loading of page?
Posted by Ville Virtanen <vi...@cerion.fi>.
Hi again,
I have had this problem also with images, as the T5 progressive display only
fetches the img TAG from the server -> updates the dom and then the browser
starts to load the image... So the progressive display is working correctly.
If you could embed the image to the transmission it would work as you'd like
to, but don't know if that is possible. I'm afraid that in your case you
have to do some custom coding.
Our case is that we're generating pdf:s that can be preview'd as images in
web environment, and the pdf generation takes some time..
Perhaps you could use something like this:
http://www.orientimport.fi/en/info/products/productlist click any of the
pictures to see the effect. The javascript solution displays the loading
image until the image is loaded, and that's what you need, right?

Hi, good idea, question is, how can we know if the loading is over? if there
is a way in the current ProgressDisplay to trigger that event so that it can
make the img visible?

I would certainly second this. Not in the least because i'm currently
working on a lot of charting things .. ;-)
Since a picture says more than a 1000 words (or so the saying goes) it would
go a long way to 'show users (/bosses?)' the (perceived) power of Tapestry.
Making it easier and more transparent to deal with graphics would certainly
be a very good thing indeed.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder .. and the user likes his pictures (be
it an image or a graph)

Hi,
I think this could be a framework level component, as it seems that there
are many of us solving the same problem with a bit different approaches.
(Everyone invents the wheel..)
so +1 for this idea! :)

Idea for a component: ImagePlaceholder that displays some content in a
div (a "loading ..." message), and an invisible <img> tag in an
non-visible div. When the image is loaded, it removes the loading div
and makes the <img> visible.

Re: t5: updating a zone during loading of page?
Posted by Angelo Chen <an...@yahoo.com.hk>.
I changed the code to exactly what you suggested, the effect is the same:
1. loading...
2. loading got erased when the image started downloading
is there an event that can be triggered when the image finish loading? if
yes, then we can make the img hidden during downloading, visible when done
as suggested by Howard.

Do not generate the image in the event nor store the image. I suggest you
to try the approach I've already suggested: create a page that generates
the image and returns a StreamResponse of it in its onActivate() method.
In your page, just use an <img src="imageLink"/> tag, with a
getImageLink() method that returns a Link to your image page.

Hi,
If we generate the image in the event, and return the link, then we need to
store the image somewhere in the file system, and clean it up later after
the image got rendered, any idea how to handle this ?
Thanks,

You can even handle the progressivedisplay event (i.e. @OnEvent(value
= EventConstants.PROGRESSIVE_DISPLAY, component =
"progressiveDisplay")), construct the image there and then render the
image link to it. ProgressiveDisplay works for most partial rendering
cases, it's just a matter of how you are using it.

As Ville suggested, instead of
<t:ProgressiveDisplay initial="block:waitmsg">
${myimagestreamresponse}
</t:ProgressiveDisplay>
try
<t:ProgressiveDisplay initial="block:waitmsg">
<img src="${myimagelink}"/>
</t:ProgressiveDisplay>
You'll need to create a page that returns the image as a StreamResponse on
its onActivate() method. That's what I always do in these cases.

Re: t5: updating a zone during loading of page?

Hi,
Thanks for the reply, looks like ProgressDisplay is the one I'm looking for,
I did a test:
<t:ProgressiveDisplay initial="block:waitmsg">
${myimagestreamresponse}
</t:ProgressiveDisplay>
myImagestreamResponse returns a jpeg from an page event, it takes a little
more time to generate. above code displays the initial block, then
immediately erase it, wait for a while for the image to be generated, then
display the image, so it is not progressive, probably something is missing
in my code? Thanks.

Hi,
have looked into
http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/tapestry-core/ref/org/apache/tapestry5/corelib/components/ProgressiveDisplay.html
?
Maybe that solves it?
