Dreamweaver UltraDev 1

Description

Returns the children of a top-level node.

Arguments

sourceName

is the name of the top-level node whose children you want to return.

Returns

Dreamweaver expects an array of JavaScript objects where each object can have as many as

four properties:

1 The title property is the label string that appears on the right of the icon for each parent

node. The

title property is required.

2 The allowDelete property is an optional property. If this property is set to false, when the

user clicks on this node in the Bindings panel, the minus (-) button is disabled. If this

property is set to

true, the minus (-) button is enabled. If the property is not defined, the

default is

true.

3 The dataSource property is the simple name of the file in which the findDynamicSources()

function is defined. For example, the

findDynamicSources() function in Configuration/

DataSources/ASP_Js/Session.htm sets the

dataSource property to session.htm. This is a

required property.

4 The name property is the name of the server behavior that is associated with the data source, if

one exists. It is a required property. Some data sources, such as recordsets, are associated with

server behaviors. When you create a recordset and give it the name

rsAuthors, the name

property must equal

rsAuthors. Other data sources, such as session variables, do not have a

corresponding server behavior. Their name property must be the empty string (

"").

Note: A JavaScript class that defines these properties exists in Configuration/Shared/Common/Scripts/

DataSourceClass.js.
