Hi everyone,
I am writing a GWT app that involves interacting with an external document in an iframe. As a proof of concept, I am trying to attach a click handler to a button.
The following works in javascript
var iframe = document.getElementById("rawJSIFrame");
var doc = iframe.contentDocument;
var body = doc.body;
var button = doc.getElementsByTagName("input").namedItem("submit");
button.onclick = function() {
alert("Clicked!");
};
Trying to do the equivalent in GWT, I did the following:
public void addClickHandlerToSubmitButton(String buttonElementName, ClickHandler clickHandler) {
IFrameElement iframe = IFrameElement.as(frame.getElement());
Document frameDocument = getIFrameDocument(iframe);
if (frameDocument != null) {
Element buttonElement = finder(frameDocument).tag("input").name(buttonElementName).findOne();
ElementWrapper wrapper = new ElementWrapper(buttonElement);
HandlerRegistration handlerRegistration = wrapper.addClickHandler(clickHandler);
}
}
private native Document getIFrameDocument(IFrameElement iframe)/*-{
return iframe.contentDocument;
}-*/;
The following is the ElementWrapper class:
public class ElementWrapper extends Widget implements HasClickHandlers {
public ElementWrapper(Element theElement) {
setElement(theElement);
}
public HandlerRegistration addClickHandler(ClickHandler handler) {
return addDomHandler(handler, ClickEvent.getType());
}
}
The code to find the button works fine but the actual click event handler is not getting invoked. Has anybody had a similar issue before, and how did you resolve it?
Thanks in advance,
Tin
