addClickHandler(handler)

Add a handler for click events.

Note that you can have multiple handlers for the same event on the same widget. They will be called in the order that they were added to the widget, although ServerHandlers may appear to happen simultaneously.

The handler passes back some information to the server about what happened. This information can be accessed as follows:

 
function doGet() {
   var app = UiApp.createApplication();
   var button = app.createButton("a button");
   var handler = app.createServerHandler("handlerFunction");
   button.addClickHandler(handler);
   app.add(button);
   return app;
 }

 function handlerFunction(eventInfo) {
   var parameter = eventInfo.parameter;
   // the type of event, in this case "click".
   var eventType = parameter.eventType;
   // the id of the widget that fired this event.
   var source = parameter.source;
   // mouse x and y position relative to the widget that fired the event.
   var x = parameter.x;
   var y = parameter.y;
   // mouse x and y position within the browser window's client area.
   var clientX = parameter.clientX;
   var clientY = parameter.clientY;
   // mouse x and y position within the user's display.
   var screenX = parameter.screenX;
   var screenY = parameter.screenY;
   // the mouse button used. Left is 1, right is 2, and middle is 4.
   var button = parameter.button;
   // whether the various modifier keys were also pressed (true or false)
   var shift = parameter.shift;
   var alt = parameter.alt;
   var ctrl = parameter.ctrl;
   var meta = parameter.meta;
 }
 

Parameters

   var handler = app.createServerHandler("handlerFunction");
   image.addErrorHandler(handler);

Returns the id that has been assigned to this object.

This can be used in conjunction with app.getElementById() to retrieve a reference to this object.

Return

String — the id that has been assigned to this object

getTag()

Gets the text tag of this Image.

Return

String — the text tag.

getType()

Gets the type of this object.

Return

String — the object type

setHeight(height)

Sets the height of this Image.

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setId(id)

Sets the id of this Image.

Parameters

setStyleAttribute(attribute, value)

Sets one of this Image's style attributes to a new value. Valid attributes are listed here; the values for each attribute are the same as those available in CSS style sheets.

 
// Change the widget's background to black and text color to green.
 widget.setStyleAttribute("background", "black")
     .setStyleAttribute("color", "green");
 

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setStyleAttributes(attributes)

Sets this Image's style attributes. This is a convenience method that is equivalent to calling setStyleAttribute with every key/value pair in the attributes object. Valid attributes are listed here; the values for each attribute are the same as those available in CSS style sheets.

 
// Change the widget's background to black and text color to green.
 widget.setStyleAttributes({background: "black", color: "green"});
 

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setStyleName(styleName)

Sets the style name of this Image.

This is useful for debugging but is otherwise of minimal use since there is no way to use custom stylesheets in UiApp.

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setStylePrimaryName(styleName)

Sets the primary style name of this Image.

This is useful for debugging but is otherwise of minimal use since there is no way to use custom stylesheets in UiApp.

Parameters

Return

setTag(tag)

Sets the text tag of this Image.

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setTitle(title)

Sets the hover title of this Image.

Not all browsers will show this.

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setUrl(url)

Sets the URL of the image to be displayed.

If the image is in the clipped state, a call to this method will cause a transition of the image to the unclipped state. Regardless of whether or not the image is in the clipped or unclipped state, a load event will be fired.

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setUrlAndVisibleRect(url, left, top, width, height)

Sets the url and the visibility rectangle for the image at the same time.

A single load event will be fired if either the incoming url or visiblity rectangle coordinates differ from the image's current url or current visibility rectangle coordinates. If the image is currently in the unclipped state, a call to this method will cause a transition to the clipped state.

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setVisible(visible)

Sets whether this Image is visible.

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setVisibleRect(left, top, width, height)

Sets the visibility rectangle of an image.

The visibility rectangle is declared relative to the the rectangle which encompasses the entire image, which has an upper-left vertex of (0,0). Provided that any of the left, top, width, and height parameters are different than the those values that are currently set for the image, a load event will be fired. If the image is in the unclipped state, a call to this method will cause a transition of the image to the clipped state. This transition will cause a load event to fire.

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.

setWidth(width)

Sets the width of this Image.

Parameters

Return

Image — the Image itself, useful for chaining.
