Page.CreateObject Examples

OverviewExamples

Page.CreateObject (

number ObjectType,

string ObjectName,

table Properties )

Example 1

-- Initialize the properties table

tWebProperties = {}

tWebProperties.URL="http://www.amsuser.com";

tWebProperties.Enabled=true;

tWebProperties.Visible=true;

tWebProperties.X=0;

tWebProperties.Y=0;

tWebProperties.Width=630;

tWebProperties.Height=425;

-- Create the web object

Page.CreateObject(OBJECT_WEB, "AC_Web_Created_By_Action", tWebProperties);

Initializes a table of properties for a web object, and then creates the web object "AC_Web_Created_By_Actions" based on these properties. The first three characters in the name ("AC_") were added to differentiate this object from objects on the page from design-time (AC_ denotes an 'action created' object). This type of object naming is not required, but it helps to ensure you don't try to create an already created object.

Example 2

-- Initialize the properties table

tImageProperties = {};

tImageProperties.ImageFile = _SourceFolder .. "\\AutoPlay\\Images\\Create_Me.jpg";

tImageProperties.UseTransColor = false;

tImageProperties.Opacity = 75;

tImageProperties.HitTest = HITTEST_STANDARD;

tImageProperties.Enabled = true;

tImageProperties.Visible = true;

tImageProperties.X = 50;

tImageProperties.Y = 50;

tImageProperties.Width = 100;

tImageProperties.Height = 200;

tImageProperties.TooltipText = "I was created by an action!!";

tImageProperties.Cursor = CURSOR_MEDIA;

tImageProperties.HighlightSound = SND_STANDARD;

tImageProperties.ClickSound = SND_STANDARD;

-- Create the image object

Page.CreateObject(OBJECT_IMAGE, "AC_Image_Object", tImageProperties);

Initializes a table of properties for an image object, and then creates the image object "Image_Object" based on these properties.
