Chris, can you point me to an example of this?
thanks, p.

You are probably asking for trouble if you try to misuse initializers in
this way (which also explains why two identical init statements results in
only one being executed)

Hey, hang on, Chris, weren't you the one who asked can't you just use
javascriptsupport to require and invoke your js module
function?. That's what got me doubting the rule of thumb that I'd written!
Am I missing your point?

I tend to think of the the after render requires as initializers, and the
ajaxResponseRenderer (ARR) callbacks as the place to do interaction.
I do not think of toggle calls like (show/hide timer) as real initializers.
We still use .require to get the client side module injected in the ARR,
but

Actually, it can be used inside beginRender() or setupRender() with the
exact same result. :) Tapestry will only actually add the JavaScript
Yes indeed.
The reason I've developed the habit of using afterRender() is that so often we
need to pass the clientId of an embedded component to the JavaScript. In
afterRender() we can be sure that all clientIds have been assigned. So now I
just use afterRender() without giving it a second

Geoff,
After some testing I can really see the benefits in how you achieve
this... One of my main prior misunderstanding was that the 'define' is
only run once (I thought it would be re-run each 'require'), making
similar to a 'static' object in some ways, in that the state is then
shared by
Chris, It looks like the rule of thumb that I stated was wrong. I've just
used JavaScriptSupport#require in some AJAX event handlers.
Can someone explain under what circumstances we have to use
AjaxResponseRenderer#addCallback instead of JavaScriptSupport#require ?
Is it something to do with
Geoff,
AFAIK, JavascriptSupport is only available at render time and ajax render
doesn't start until after your event handler returns something. I think
it's because tapestry doesn't know what will need to be rendered yet.
For your second question, I think you can achieve what you want if you
Thanks Geoff,
Im going to have to play around with this and see what is happening

The change in JavaScript is to support several goals:
- A good transition from Prototype.js to jQuery (or perhaps something else
in the future)
- Reduce the total amount of JavaScript sent to the client
- Allow more of the JavaScript to transfer in parallel
- Make it easier to override Tapestry's
Oh,
so calling
require(modal).invoke(activate)
and then later
require(modal).invoke(deactivate)
.. both re-construct a seperate modal js object and then call one of
the two published functions...
what if you have two different modals? what if they are init-ed differently:
Yep, that's a valid case, and it's one I have to put into JumpStart.
Here's the way I handle it. I'd like to see what others do.
Have the module keep an array of objects, identified by a key. The server-side
can provide the key when initialising and later whenever invoking a function.
The
A better example would be where the client-side objects have considerable
state, eg. a Graph object or, more complex still, a Graph editor.
Of course, client-side objects may be avoided having your javascript
save/retrieve all state to/from hidden fields in the relevant part of the DOM,
but

I don't think so. I believe the rule of thumb is to use JavaScriptSupport
during render, and use an AJAX callback during partial page render.
IIRC, the JavaScriptSupport environmental is not available when you're handling
an AJAX component event request.

Hi,
so like many developers (i'm guessing) I'm not quite up to speed with
all these new javascript frameworks: requirejs, closure, etc etc and to
be honest I really didn't see a problem with the namespace model of the
past. I'm not open to learning but it seems like a paradigm far removed

Firstly thanks for the reply.
Do you think you could put aside the dissection of my question and
defence of position and just answer the question to be helpful?

Your questions were vague, so I couldn't provide a good answer.
Or try this simple question:
How do I execute some javascript in the render phase of a component
which creates an object and then refer to that object when handling an
async event for the same component?
Please excuse me if this is documented somewhere, I cannot find it.

Well, let me try to answer as well. I just rewrote one, simple old school
component to new T5.4, perhaps that's one good data point. I find that the
biggest difference is in attaching the event handlers and in the
initialization, much else is the same. Objects are overrated for data
encapsulation,
Thank you both of you for your responses ... I am learning a lot and

However I am still stumbling on this one use case which can be summed up
