Behaviors
Example
The following instance of the
inspectBehavior()
function, taken from the Display Status Message.htm file, fills in
the Message field in the Parameters dialog box with the message that the user selected when the behavior was originally
applied:
function inspectBehavior(msgStr){
var startStr = msgStr.indexOf("'") + 1;
var endStr = msgStr.lastIndexOf("'");
if (startStr > 0 && endStr > startStr) {
document.theForm.message.value = ¬
unescQuotes(msgStr.substring(startStr,endStr));
}
}
Note: For more information about the
unescQuotes()
function, see the dwscripts.js file in the
Configuration/Shared/Common/Scripts/CMN folder.
windowDimensions()
Description
This function sets specific dimensions for the Parameters dialog box. If this function is not defined, the window
dimensions are computed automatically.
Note: Do not define this function unless you want a Parameters dialog box that is larger than 640 x 480 pixels.
Arguments
platform
The value of the
platform
argument is either
macintosh
or
windows
, depending on the platform of the user.
Returns
Dreamweaver expects a string of the form
widthInPixels,heightInPixels
.
The returned dimensions are smaller than the size of the entire dialog box because they do not include the area for the
OK and Cancel buttons. If the returned dimensions do not accommodate all options, scroll bars appear.
Example
The following instance of
windowDimensions()
sets the dimensions of the Parameters dialog box to 648 x 520 pixels:
function windowDimensions(){
return "648,520";
}
