Hi everybody,

We are trying to use DHTMLEdit control. It have an object event.

--qoute
event Object

Represents the state of an event, such as the element in which the event 
occurred, the state of the keyboard keys, the location of the mouse, and the 
state of the mouse buttons.

--end qoute
Do somebody know how can I call it? It is not property or method...

Many thanks in advance

hi,

do you meen dhtmled.ocx ?

> Do somebody know how can I call it? It is not property or method...

lets say Event "ondblclick" and Newform() contain your activeX
with iVar called "oDHTM"

*** snip ***
   oApp := Newform():new():create()
   
    "subscript" some ActiveX Events
   
   cEventName := "ondblclick"
   xVar       := oApp:oDHTM:isEventPublished(cEventName)
   IF xVar <> Nil
      lSuccess := oApp:oDHTM:SubscribeEvent( xVar, { |a| Msgbox("here is my 
Event") } )
   ENDI
*** eof ***

Hi Jimmy,

Many thanks. Yes, it works. And the same result I got if I'd write 
oApp:oDHTML:onmouseDown := {|a|Msgbox("here is my Event"}

But how can I get event properties?Let us take look a description, especially red one

onMousedown Event

Fires when the user clicks the object with either mouse button. 

Syntax

      Inline HTML <ELEMENT onmousedown = "handler" ... >  All platforms 
      Event property object.onmousedown = handler JScript only 
      object.onmousedown = GetRef("handler") Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) 5.0 or later only 
      Named script <SCRIPT FOR = object EVENT = onmousedown>  Internet Explorer only 


Event Information

      Bubbles Yes 
      Cancels Yes 
      To invoke Click a mouse button.  
      Default action Initiates actions associated with the event and with the object being clicked.  


 Event Object Properties

 

Although event handlers in the DHTML Object Model do not receive parameters directly, a handler can query the event object for the following event properties.

 Available Properties

      altLeft Sets or retrieves a value that indicates the state of the left ALT key. 
      button Sets or retrieves the mouse button pressed by the user.  
      cancelBubble Sets or retrieves whether the current event should bubble up the hierarchy of event handlers.  
      clientX Sets or retrieves the x-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the client area of the window, excluding window decorations and scroll bars. 
      clientY Sets or retrieves the y-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the client area of the window, excluding window decorations and scroll bars. 
      ctrlKey Sets or retrieves the state of the CTRL key.  
      ctrlLeft Sets or retrieves the state of the left CTRL key.  
      offsetX Sets or retrieves the x-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the object firing the event.  
      offsetY Sets or retrieves the y-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the object firing the event.  
      returnValue Sets or retrieves the return value from the event.  
      screenX Sets or retrieves the x-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the user's screen.  
      screenY Sets or retrieves the y-coordinate of the mouse pointer's position relative to the user's screen.  
      shiftKey Sets or retrieves the state of the SHIFT key.  
      shiftLeft Retrieves the state of the left SHIFT key.  
      srcElement Sets or retrieves the object that fired the event.  
      type Sets or retrieves the event name from the event object.  
      x Sets or retrieves the x-coordinate (in pixels) of the mouse pointer's offset from the closest relatively positioned parent element of the element that fired the event. 
      y Sets or retrieves the y-coordinate (in pixels) of the mouse pointer's offset from the closest relatively positioned parent element of the element that fired the event.

I need to know the button property of event. Our code block {|a|Msgbox("here is my Event"} do not get any parameters. Any good idea? 
Many thanks in advance

Have you tried:

oDOM    := oApp:oDHTM:DOM
nButton := oDOM:Event:Button
nX      := oDOM:Event:X
nY      := oDOM:Event:Y

etc.

The documentation refers to the "DHTML Object Model" or "DOM", which is
an object that basically represents your HTML Document, and which should 
include the "Event Object".

Altiy,

>many thanks. Unfortunately does not work -

Have you also tried:

oDOM := oApp:oDHTM:GetProperty('DOM')

or:

oDOM := oApp:oDHTM:DOM()

or:

oDOM := oApp:oDHTM:CallMethod('DOM')

Access to the DOM object seems to be implemented as a "PropGet()" Method
in DHTML Edit Control for IE5 (dhtmled.ocx). The DOM object seems to be 
an "IHTMLDocument2" object.

But the DOM's event object might not be available to you, anyway, as it 
seems to be designed to be accessed by Scripts -- while executing a script 
in the HTML code -- rather than the (external/separate) Editor OCX.

Yes, the same result

Jimmy

No, as mentioned, the parameter is NIL...

Where do you get the "object event" from?
Are you sure you are asking the right question?

DHtmlEd.idl lists these interfaces:

 interface IDHTMLSafe : IDispatch
 interface IDHTMLEdit : IDHTMLSafe

The DHTMLEdit control apparently uses these event interfaces

 dispinterface _DHTMLSafeEvents
 dispinterface _DHTMLEditEvents

FWIW, an event object in Microsoft terminology is something entirely 
different from an event interface.

Maybe you can post some code to explain better what you mean.
(the Microsoft docs are miserable when it comes to details )

Hannes,

many thanks. Could you pls take a look my answer to Jimmy with explanation 
of my problem/
Many thanks again

I'll need to take a closer look at the DHTMLEdit control and see where/when 
events are fired. Unfortunately, my time is very limited at the moment. I'll 
come back to you on this issue when time permits.
