Does JScrollPane work with GWT? about jscrollpane

[dafinley]

Actually figured it out. JScrollPane is expecting all the div elements to be in place when it runs...otherwise it would by psychic. Problem with gwt is that it runs all the javascript then starts processing the java code that creates the display elements.
By using a native event, and passing in the object, as so:

private static native void jScrollPane(YourClass y)/*-{

$wnd.showout = function(){

if([email protected]::firstTime()()){
$wnd.jQuery('.YourCssClass').jScrollPane();
[email protected]::notLongerFirstTime()();
}

}

}-*/;

Now you pass the showout javascript function to the onmouseover function of whatever element you want to effect using the getElement().setAttribute("onmouseover", "showout()") syntax and you should be golden

Glad you figured it out. If you look at all of the jScrollPane examples you will see that the code to initialise jScrollPane happens in a jQuery document ready block. This ensures that the DOM is ready and so manipulations can be done to it when jScrollPane is initialised. I'm not familiar with GWT but I guess your code above is in some way equivalent to this...

Hi dafinley,

The native method you mentioned, where to put this method and where to call this method from?

It would be great if you provide some explanation of the native method.
Thanks
