AVCDynaTree Node Pages

"Node Pages" contain information about the child items of the parent item.  Node Pages are HTML pages with a specific format.  When the parent item is expanded, AVCDynaTree opens the associated Node Page and parses the child items information.  AVCDynaTree inserts the child items into the tree.
 

HTML Format

The Node Page must follow this format:

<body>
<p>
node name
node icon
node view
node content
node target
</p>
...
</body>
 

The HTML tags must be followed by a new line, lowercase, and not preceded or followed by spaces.  The values between the <p> and </p> tags contain the information for one child item.  The <p> and </p> with associated values may be repeated to add additional child items.  Do not use a blank line for a given value.  Use "none" if needed.
 

Values Definition

node name - (required) display label of the child item.

node icon - (optional) relative path of icon to be displayed to the left of the child item.  The icon is must be 16 X 16 pixels.  The  server path specified in the applet parameter "ServerURL" is used as the base path.  If the server path is not specified, the applet CODEBASE is used as the base path.
node view - (optional) absolute path of the document that should be displayed when the user clicks on the child item.  If the path begins with "./", the path is considered a relative path.  The  server path specified in the applet parameter "ServerURL" is used as the base path.  If the server path is not specified, the applet CODEBASE is used as the base path.

node content - (optional) relative path of the Node Page that contains information about the item's child items.  The  server path specified in the applet parameter "ServerURL" is used as the base path.  If the server path is not specified, the applet CODEBASE is used as the base path.
