accessing subnodes in TreeView from javascript

[Johan Åhlén]

Hi,

Does anybody have any idea how to access child nodes in a TreeView
without using postbacks?

For example: in the subtree below I want to disable nodes B, C and D
when A is checked (and enable them again when A is unchecked):

Subtree:
[ ]A---[ ]B
|----[ ]C
|----[ ]D

I want to do this entirely in javascript. Any idea how to access the state
of the child nodes from the eventhandlers?

Thanks for any help!

Johan

Hi again,

Accessing the child nodes wasn't that much of a problem. The bigger problem
was
disabling them, which required (from what I have found) making changes in
the
control itself, to support a new attribute - "disabled".

Here is the the resulting code:

Add eventhandler:
oncheck="javascript: if (this.clickedNodeIndex != null)
__disableChildNodes(this);"

// Select and disable all child nodes under the recently clicked node
function __disableChildNodes( tree )
{
var node = tree.getTreeNode(tree.clickedNodeIndex);
var state = node.getAttribute('checked');

__setChildNodesState( node, state );
}

function __setChildNodesState( node, state )
{
var children = node.getChildren();

if ( children[0] != undefined )
{
for (var i = 0; i < children.length; i++)
{
children[i].setAttribute('checked',state);
children[i].setAttribute('disabled',state);
__setChildNodesState( children[i], state );
}
}
}
