Hi All,
Was wondering what others’ experience was with respect to custom web controls and the handling of server requests and updates ? For example if I were to want to create a custom control around lobilist (a jquery plugin) then I’d need to handle the below:
lists: [],
// Urls to communicate to backend for todos
actions: {
'load': '',
'update': '',
'insert': '',
'delete': ''
}
Naturally a URI is expected for each of the above but Xojo.triggerServerEvent isn’t applicable here for obvious reasons including the fact that (even if it were a URI it doesn’t wait for a response).
So I was thinking that handleSpecialURL could of course handle this but then I’d need a way to ‘map’ the request against a user session. I’d assume a token in the header would be a way to do this ?
So anyway, am interested to hear others experience with something like this (and no, I’d prefer to not start hacking into the jQuery components code and changing stuff )
Thanks in advance,
Steve
