Properties

_aroundNode

The node to display the popup around. Can be set via a data-dojo-attach-point assignment. If missing, then domNode will be used.

_arrowWrapperNode

Will set CSS class dijitUpArrow, dijitDownArrow, dijitRightArrow etc. on this node depending on where the drop down is set to be positioned. Can be set via a data-dojo-attach-point assignment. If missing, then _buttonNode will be used.

_attrPairNames

_blankGif

Path to a blank 1x1 image. Used by <img> nodes in templates that really get their image via CSS background-image.

_buttonInputDisabled

_buttonNode

The button/icon/node to click to display the drop down. Can be set via a data-dojo-attach-point assignment. If missing, then either focusNode or domNode (if focusNode is also missing) will be used.

_childrenLoaded

Whether or not our children have been loaded

_earlyTemplatedStartup

A fallback to preserve the 1.0 - 1.3 behavior of children in templates having their startup called before the parent widget fires postCreate. Defaults to 'false', causing child widgets to have their .startup() called immediately before a parent widget .startup(), but always after the parent .postCreate(). Set to 'true' to re-enable to previous, arguably broken, behavior.

_focusManager

_isLoaded

Whether or not we have been loaded

_popupStateNode

The node to set the popupActive class on. Can be set via a data-dojo-attach-point assignment. If missing, then focusNode or _buttonNode (if focusNode is missing) will be used.

_setClassAttr

_setDirAttr

_setIdAttr

_setLangAttr

_setTabIndexAttr

_setTypeAttr

_skipNodeCache

_started

startup() has completed.

_stopClickEvents

When set to false, the click events will not be stopped, in case you want to use them in your subclass

active

True if mouse was pressed while over this widget, and hasn't been released yet

actualValue

alt

Corresponds to the native HTML <input> element's attribute.

aria-label

attributeMap

Deprecated. Instead of attributeMap, widget should have a _setXXXAttr attribute for each XXX attribute to be mapped to the DOM.

attributeMap sets up a "binding" between attributes (aka properties) of the widget and the widget's DOM. Changes to widget attributes listed in attributeMap will be reflected into the DOM.

For example, calling set('title', 'hello') on a TitlePane will automatically cause the TitlePane's DOM to update with the new title.

attributeMap is a hash where the key is an attribute of the widget, and the value reflects a binding to a:

  • DOM node attribute

    focus: {node: "focusNode", type: "attribute"} Maps this.focus to this.focusNode.focus

  • DOM node innerHTML

    title: { node: "titleNode", type: "innerHTML" } Maps this.title to this.titleNode.innerHTML

  • DOM node innerText

    title: { node: "titleNode", type: "innerText" } Maps this.title to this.titleNode.innerText

  • DOM node CSS class

    myClass: { node: "domNode", type: "class" } Maps this.myClass to this.domNode.className

If the value is an array, then each element in the array matches one of the formats of the above list.

There are also some shorthands for backwards compatibility:

  • string --> { node: string, type: "attribute" }, for example:
"focusNode" ---> { node: "focusNode", type: "attribute" }
  • "" --> { node: "domNode", type: "attribute" }

autoWidth

Set to true to make the drop down at least as wide as this widget. Set to false if the drop down should just be its default width

baseClass

This class name is applied to the widget's domNode and also may be used to generate names for sub nodes, for example dijitTabContainer-content.

class

containerNode

Designates where children of the source DOM node will be placed. "Children" in this case refers to both DOM nodes and widgets. For example, for myWidget: 

<div data-dojo-type=myWidget>
    <b> here's a plain DOM node
    <span data-dojo-type=subWidget>and a widget</span>
    <i> and another plain DOM node </i>
</div>

containerNode would point to: 

<b> here's a plain DOM node
<span data-dojo-type=subWidget>and a widget</span>
<i> and another plain DOM node </i>

In templated widgets, "containerNode" is set via a data-dojo-attach-point assignment.

containerNode must be defined for any widget that accepts innerHTML (like ContentPane or BorderContainer or even Button), and conversely is null for widgets that don't, like TextBox.

cssStateNodes

List of sub-nodes within the widget that need CSS classes applied on mouse hover/press and focus

Each entry in the hash is a an attachpoint names (like "upArrowButton") mapped to a CSS class names (like "dijitUpArrowButton"). Example: 

{
    "upArrowButton": "dijitUpArrowButton",
    "downArrowButton": "dijitDownArrowButton"
}

The above will set the CSS class dijitUpArrowButton to the this.upArrowButton DOMNode when it

is hovered, etc.

dir

Bi-directional support, as defined by the HTML DIR attribute. Either left-to-right "ltr" or right-to-left "rtl". If undefined, widgets renders in page's default direction.

disabled

Should this widget respond to user input? In markup, this is specified as "disabled='disabled'", or just "disabled".

dndType

Defines a type of widget.

domNode

This is our visible representation of the widget! Other DOM Nodes may by assigned to other properties, usually through the template system's data-dojo-attach-point syntax, but the domNode property is the canonical "top level" node in widget UI.

dropDown

The widget to display as a popup. This widget must be defined before the startup function is called.

dropDownPosition

This variable controls the position of the drop down. It's an array of strings with the following values:

  • before: places drop down to the left of the target node/widget, or to the right in the case of RTL scripts like Hebrew and Arabic
  • after: places drop down to the right of the target node/widget, or to the left in the case of RTL scripts like Hebrew and Arabic
  • above: drop down goes above target node
  • below: drop down goes below target node

The list is positions is tried, in order, until a position is found where the drop down fits within the viewport.

emptyLabel

What to display in an "empty" dropdown

focused

This widget or a widget it contains has focus, or is "active" because it was recently clicked.

forceWidth

Set to true to make the drop down exactly as wide as this widget. Overrides autoWidth.

hovering

True if cursor is over this widget

id

A unique, opaque ID string that can be assigned by users or by the system. If the developer passes an ID which is known not to be unique, the specified ID is ignored and the system-generated ID is used instead.

intermediateChanges

Fires onChange for each value change or only on demand

isLayoutContainer

Indicates that this widget is going to call resize() on its children widgets, setting their size, when they become visible.

labelAttr

The entries in the drop down list come from this attribute in the dojo.store items. If store is set, labelAttr must be set too, unless store is an old-style dojo.data store rather than a new dojo/store.

lang

Rarely used. Overrides the default Dojo locale used to render this widget, as defined by the HTML LANG attribute. Value must be among the list of locales specified during by the Dojo bootstrap, formatted according to RFC 3066 (like en-us).

loadChildrenOnOpen

By default loadChildren is called when the items are fetched from the store. This property allows delaying loadChildren (and the creation of the options/menuitems) until the user clicks the button to open the dropdown.

maxHeight

message

Currently displayed error/prompt message

missingMessage

Message which is displayed when required is true and value is empty.

multiple

Whether or not we are multi-valued

name

Name used when submitting form; same as "name" attribute or plain HTML elements

onFetch

A callback to do with an onFetch - but before any items are actually iterated over (i.e. to filter even further what you want to add)

onLoadDeferred

This is the dojo.Deferred returned by setStore(). Calling onLoadDeferred.then() registers your callback to be called only once, when the prior setStore completes.

options

The set of options for our select item. Roughly corresponds to the html <option> tag.

ownerDocument

The document this widget belongs to. If not specified to constructor, will default to srcNodeRef.ownerDocument, or if no sourceRef specified, then to dojo/_base/window::doc

query

A query to use when fetching items from our store

queryOptions

Query options to use when fetching from the store

readOnly

Should this widget respond to user input? In markup, this is specified as "readOnly". Similar to disabled except readOnly form values are submitted.

required

Can be true or false, default is false.

scrollOnFocus

On focus, should this widget scroll into view?

sortByLabel

Flag to sort the options returned from a store by the label of the store.

srcNodeRef

pointer to original DOM node

state

"Incomplete" if this select is required but unset (i.e. blank value), "" otherwise

store

A store to use for getting our list of options - rather than reading them from the <option> html tags. Should support getIdentity(). For back-compat store can also be a dojo/data/api/Identity.

style

HTML style attributes as cssText string or name/value hash

tabIndex

Order fields are traversed when user hits the tab key

templatePath

Path to template (HTML file) for this widget relative to dojo.baseUrl. Deprecated: use templateString with require([... "dojo/text!..."], ...) instead

templateString

textDir

Bi-directional support, the main variable which is responsible for the direction of the text. The text direction can be different than the GUI direction by using this parameter in creation of a widget.

Allowed values:

  1. "ltr"
  2. "rtl"
  3. "auto" - contextual the direction of a text defined by first strong letter.

By default is as the page direction.

title

HTML title attribute.

For form widgets this specifies a tooltip to display when hovering over the widget (just like the native HTML title attribute).

For TitlePane or for when this widget is a child of a TabContainer, AccordionContainer, etc., it's used to specify the tab label, accordion pane title, etc.

tooltip

When this widget's title attribute is used to for a tab label, accordion pane title, etc., this specifies the tooltip to appear when the mouse is hovered over that text.

tooltipPosition

See description of dijit/Tooltip.defaultPosition for details on this parameter.

type

Corresponds to the native HTML <input> element's attribute.

Methods

protected method _onBlur ( )

This is where widgets do processing for when they stop being active, such as changing CSS classes. See onBlur() for more details.

protected method _onFocus ( )

This is where widgets do processing for when they start being active, such as changing CSS classes. See onFocus() for more details.

protected method _setStyleAttr ( value )

Sets the style attribute of the widget according to value, which is either a hash like {height: "5px", width: "3px"} or a plain string
Parameters

protected method _setupChild ( child )

Common setup for initial children and children which are added after startup
Parameters

protected method applyTextDir ( element , text )

The function overridden in the _BidiSupport module, originally used for setting element.dir according to this.textDir. In this case does nothing.
Parameters

protected method compare ( val1 , val2 )

Compare 2 values (as returned by get('value') for this widget).
Parameters

protected method connect ( obj , event , method )

Deprecated, will be removed in 2.0, use this.own(on(...)) or this.own(aspect.after(...)) instead.

Connects specified obj/event to specified method of this object and registers for disconnect() on widget destroy.

Provide widget-specific analog to dojo.connect, except with the implicit use of this widget as the target object. Events connected with this.connect are disconnected upon destruction.
Parameters
Examples
var btn = new Button();
// when foo.bar() is called, call the listener we're going to
// provide in the scope of btn
btn.connect(foo, "bar", function(){
    console.debug(this.toString());
});

protected method defer ( fcn , delay )

Wrapper to setTimeout to avoid deferred functions executing after the originating widget has been destroyed. Returns an object handle with a remove method (that returns null) (replaces clearTimeout).
Parameters

protected method destroyRendering ( preserveDom )

Destroys the DOM nodes associated with this widget
Parameters

protected method disconnect ( handle )

Deprecated, will be removed in 2.0, use handle.remove() instead.

Disconnects handle created by connect.
Parameters

protected method emit ( type , eventObj , callbackArgs )

Used by widgets to signal that a synthetic event occurred, ex: 

myWidget.emit("attrmodified-selectedChildWidget", {}).

Emits an event on this.domNode named type.toLowerCase(), based on eventObj. Also calls onType() method, if present, and returns value from that method. By default passes eventObj to callback, but will pass callbackArgs instead, if specified. Modifies eventObj by adding missing parameters (bubbles, cancelable, widget).
Parameters

protected method getTextDir ( text , originalDir )

Return direction of the text. The function overridden in the _BidiSupport module, its main purpose is to calculate the direction of the text, if was defined by the programmer through textDir.
