Hello,

I have a question about the lxContainer function.

Environment:
I created a page with a ListX module in the toppane, two Text modules in the contentpane and a toolbar module (part of NukeDK) in the left pane.

In the ListX module I activad Javascript Utilities
In the Text modules I inserted the following code in the module header: <lxContainer ModuleId="519" Name="Tekst1" Group="Tabs" /> and <lxContainer ModuleId="520" Name="Tekst2" Group="Tabs" />
In the Toolbar module I inserted the following code in the module footer: <SCRIPT>
lxContainerGroup('Tabs');
</SCRIPT>

Also I created two toolbar items with a script action lxContainer('Tekst1'); resp. lxContainer('Tekst2');

I'm facing the following problems:
1. If I put the toolbar module in the right pane initially I only see the first tekst module (Tekst1). If I put it in the left pane, I see both text modules. The moduleID of the toolbar module is higher than the Text modules. Perhaps the reason for this behaviour?

2. I want the style of the selected item in the toolbar different than the normal, hover and disabled class. I'm under the impression I can do this with the lxContainer function. However I cannot get it to work? Can someone help me out here?

FYI, I started using NukeDK last week<img src='http://dnn.bi4ce.com/desktopmodules/ntforums/images/emoticons/unsure.gif' height='20' width='20' border='0' title='Unsure' align='absmiddle'>

Hello,
Can you try an all ListX solution instead of using the Text modules? That may help with the Ajax. You can always put the HTML in a no query template and render that.
Thanks,

Hello Robert,

I got it to work. I replaced the text modules with ListX modules as you proposed.

To summarize:
I have 1 toolbar module and 2 listX modules. In each ListX module I entered <SCRIPT>lxContainerGroup('Tabs');</SCRIPT> in the module footer, together with Ajax enabled and Include utilities Javascript.

In each ListX module I entered a line <lxContainer ModuleId="xxx" Name="yyy" Group="Tabs" /> in the Module Header.

In the toolbar I enter lxContainer('yyy'); as the action for the toolbar item.

Is this the proper way to use lxContainer?

Other question.
Do you know how to handle the select action. In other words: How can I change the display of a toolbaritem so users see that this item was last selected?

Thanks,

Arjan

Hi Arjan,

Thats the correct way of using an lxContainer. Instead of using a toolbar module, you could as well drop another ListX module and build a tab structure easily using <a> tags.

In the lxContainer syntax, we have ActiveCSS and InActiveCSS - may be you could use CSS to differentiate which one is selected and which one isn't.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Sindura
