public class OnloadScript
extends ScriptFamily
implements javax.faces.event.SystemEventListener

OnloadScript is an extension to <h:outputScript> which will be executed in the end of the HTML body (thus when all HTML elements are initialized in the HTML DOM tree) and will re-execute its script body on every ajax request. This is particularly useful if you want to re-execute a specific helper script to manipulate the HTML DOM tree, such as (re-)adding fancy tooltips, performing highlights, etcetera, also after changes in the HTML DOM tree on ajax responses.

You can put it anywhere in the view, it will always be relocated to the end of body.

 <o:onloadScript>alert('OnloadScript is invoked!');</o:onloadScript>

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	encodeBegin(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context) If the current request is not an ajax request, and this component is rendered, and there are any children, then start the <script> element.
void	encodeEnd(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context) If the current request is not an ajax request, and this component is rendered, and there are any children, then end the <script> element.
boolean	isListenerForSource(Object source) Returns true if the given source is an instance of OnloadScript or UIViewRoot.
void	processEvent(javax.faces.event.ComponentSystemEvent event) If the event is a PostAddToViewEvent, then relocate the component to end of body, so that we can make sure that the script is executed after all HTML DOM elements are been created.
void	processEvent(javax.faces.event.SystemEvent event) If the event is a PreRenderViewEvent and the current request is an ajax request and this component is rendered and there are any children, then encode the children as Ajax.oncomplete(String...).

Method Detail

isListenerForSource

public boolean isListenerForSource(Object source)

Returns true if the given source is an instance of OnloadScript or UIViewRoot.

Specified by:

isListenerForSource in interface javax.faces.event.SystemEventListener

processEvent

public void processEvent(javax.faces.event.ComponentSystemEvent event)
                  throws javax.faces.event.AbortProcessingException

If the event is a PostAddToViewEvent, then relocate the component to end of body, so that we can make sure that the script is executed after all HTML DOM elements are been created. Else if the event is a PostRestoreStateEvent and the current request is an ajax request, then subscribe to the PreRenderViewEvent event.

Specified by:

processEvent in interface javax.faces.event.ComponentSystemEventListener

Overrides:

processEvent in class javax.faces.component.UIComponent

Throws:

javax.faces.event.AbortProcessingException

processEvent

public void processEvent(javax.faces.event.SystemEvent event)
                  throws javax.faces.event.AbortProcessingException

If the event is a PreRenderViewEvent and the current request is an ajax request and this component is rendered and there are any children, then encode the children as Ajax.oncomplete(String...).

Specified by:

processEvent in interface javax.faces.event.SystemEventListener

Throws:

javax.faces.event.AbortProcessingException

encodeBegin

public void encodeBegin(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context)
                 throws IOException

If the current request is not an ajax request, and this component is rendered, and there are any children, then start the <script> element.

Overrides:

encodeBegin in class javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase

Throws:

IOException

encodeEnd

public void encodeEnd(javax.faces.context.FacesContext context)
               throws IOException

If the current request is not an ajax request, and this component is rendered, and there are any children, then end the <script> element.

Overrides:

encodeEnd in class javax.faces.component.UIComponentBase

Throws:

IOException
