Handler Object
The following code snippet from the zimlet JavaScript Handler Object show making the Ajax call to the JSP file and setting the callback method to read the response asyncrhonously:
/**
* Displays the zimlet jsp page.
*
*/
com_zimbra_example_simplejspasyncHandlerObject.prototype._displayDialog =
function() {
var jspUrl = this.getResource("jspfile.jsp");
var callback = new AjxCallback(this, this._rpcCallback, ["param1", "param2"])
AjxRpc.invoke(null, jspUrl, null, callback, true);
};
When the JSP page response is received, the callback method is executed:
/**
* Called from the ajax callback.
*
*/
com_zimbra_example_simplejspasyncHandlerObject.prototype._rpcCallback =
function(p1, p2, response) {
if (response.success == true) {
appCtxt.getAppController().setStatusMsg(response.text);
}
};
