Obsolete:JavaScript functions: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:52, 13 June 2010

This article is a design document which is no longer in use, the code it describes having been written and added to the Moodle codebase, or simply considered then abandoned. The information it contains is likely to be out of date, especially API and Database Schema specifications.

The functions mentioned here are deprecated. The correct way to use JavaScript in Moodle is documented on Development:JavaScript_guidelines.

This article is a stub. Please help improve Moodle Docs by editing it and adding some content.

If you want to see which JavaScript functions are available on a Moodle page you can use the Firefox Web developer extension: Information > View JavaScript.

Some things that can be there:

/lib/javascript-static.js
// Miscellaneous core Javascript functions for Moodle
function popupchecker(msg) {
   var testwindow = window.open('itestwin.html', , 'width=1,height=1,left=0,top=0,scrollbars=no');
   if (testwindow == null)
       {alert(msg);}
   else {
       testwindow.close();
   }
}
...

and

lib/overlib.js
