Class YAHOO.widget.TreeView - uses YAHOO.util.EventProvider

Contains the tree view state data and the root node.

Constructor

YAHOO.widget.TreeView ( id )
Parameters:
id <string|HTMLElement> The id of the element, or the element itself that the tree will be inserted into.

Properties

id - String

The id of tree container element

locked - boolean

We lock the tree control while waiting for the dynamic loader to return

maxAnim - int

The maximum number of animations to run at one time.

YAHOO.widget.TreeView.nodeCount - static int

Running count of all nodes created in all trees. This is used to provide unique identifies for all nodes. Deleting nodes does not change the nodeCount.

Methods

animateCollapse

boolean animateCollapse ( el , node )
Perform the collapse animation if configured, or just show the element if not configured or too many animations are in progress
Parameters:
el <HTMLElement> the element to animate
node <YAHOO.util.Node> the node that was expanded
Returns: boolean
true if animation could be invoked, false otherwise

animateExpand

boolean animateExpand ( el , node )
Perform the expand animation if configured, or just show the element if not configured or too many animations are in progress
Parameters:
el <HTMLElement> the element to animate
node <YAHOO.util.Node> the node that was expanded
Returns: boolean
true if animation could be invoked, false otherwise

collapseAll

void collapseAll ( )
Collapses all expanded child nodes in the entire tree.
Returns: void

collapseComplete

void collapseComplete ( )
Function executed when the collapse animation completes
Returns: void

draw

void draw ( )
Renders the tree boilerplate and visible nodes
Returns: void

expandAll

void expandAll ( )
Expands all child nodes. Note: this conflicts with the "multiExpand" node property. If expand all is called in a tree with nodes that do not allow multiple siblings to be displayed, only the last sibling will be expanded.
Returns: void

expandComplete

void expandComplete ( )
Function executed when the expand animation completes
Returns: void

getEl

HTMLElement getEl ( )
Returns the tree's host element
Returns: HTMLElement
the host element

getNodeByElement

YAHOO.widget.Node getNodeByElement ( the )
Returns the treeview node reference for an anscestor element of the node, or null if it is not contained within any node in this tree.
Parameters:
the <HTMLElement> element to test
Returns: YAHOO.widget.Node
a node reference or null

getNodeByIndex

Node getNodeByIndex ( nodeIndex )
Returns a node in the tree that has the specified index (this index is created internally, so this function probably will only be used in html generated for a given node.)
Parameters:
nodeIndex <int> the index of the node wanted
Returns: Node
the node with index=nodeIndex, null if no match

getNodeByProperty

Node getNodeByProperty ( property , value )
Returns a node that has a matching property and value in the data object that was passed into its constructor.
Parameters:
property <object> the property to search (usually a string)
value <object> the value we want to find (usuall an int or string)
Returns: Node
the matching node, null if no match

getNodesByProperty

Array getNodesByProperty ( property , value )
Returns a collection of nodes that have a matching property and value in the data object that was passed into its constructor.
Parameters:
property <object> the property to search (usually a string)
value <object> the value we want to find (usuall an int or string)
Returns: Array
the matching collection of nodes, null if no match

getRoot

Node getRoot ( )
Returns the root node of this tree
Returns: Node
the root node

onCollapse

void onCollapse ( node )
Abstract method that is executed when a node is collapsed.
Parameters:
node <Node> the node that was collapsed.
Returns: void
Deprecated use treeobj.subscribe("collapse") instead

onExpand

void onExpand ( node )
Abstract method that is executed when a node is expanded
Parameters:
node <Node> the node that was expanded
Returns: void
Deprecated use treeobj.subscribe("expand") instead

popNode

void popNode ( the )
Removes the node from the tree, preserving the child collection to make it possible to insert the branch into another part of the tree, or another tree.
Parameters:
the <Node> node to remove
Returns: void

removeChildren

void removeChildren ( node )
Deletes this nodes child collection, recursively. Also collapses the node, and resets the dynamic load flag. The primary use for this method is to purge a node and allow it to fetch its data dynamically again.
Parameters:
node <Node> the node to purge
Returns: void

removeNode

boolean removeNode ( The , autoRefresh )
Removes the node and its children, and optionally refreshes the branch of the tree that was affected.
Parameters:
The <Node> node to remove
autoRefresh <boolean> automatically refreshes branch if true
Returns: boolean
False is there was a problem, true otherwise.

setCollapseAnim

void setCollapseAnim ( the )
Sets up the animation for collapsing children
Parameters:
the <string> type of animation (acceptable values defined in YAHOO.widget.TVAnim)
Returns: void

setDynamicLoad

void setDynamicLoad ( fnDataLoader , iconMode )
Configures this tree to dynamically load all child data
Parameters:
fnDataLoader <function> the function that will be called to get the data
iconMode <int> configures the icon that is displayed when a dynamic load node is expanded the first time without children. By default, the "collapse" icon will be used. If set to 1, the leaf node icon will be displayed.
Returns: void

setExpandAnim

void setExpandAnim ( type )
Sets up the animation for expanding children
Parameters:
type <string> the type of animation (acceptable values defined in YAHOO.widget.TVAnim)
Returns: void

setUpLabel

void setUpLabel ( oData )

animStart ( node )
When animation is enabled, this event fires when the animation starts
Parameters:
node <YAHOO.widget.Node> the node that is expanding/collapsing

collapse

collapse ( node )
Fires when a node is going to be collapsed. Return false to stop the collapse.
Parameters:
node <YAHOO.widget.Node> the node that is collapsing

collapseComplete

collapseComplete ( node )
Fires after a node is successfully collapsed. This event will not fire if the "collapse" event was cancelled.
Parameters:
node <YAHOO.widget.Node> the node that was collapsed

expand

expand ( node )
Fires when a node is going to be expanded. Return false to stop the collapse.

Parameters:
node <YAHOO.widget.Node> the node that was expanded

labelClick

labelClick ( node )
Custom event that is fired when the text node label is clicked. The custom event is defined on the tree instance, so there is a single event that handles all nodes in the tree. The node clicked is provided as an argument
