The commented code is not working,the uncommented code is working. in the parent js file, var tabbar or window.tabbar is created; In the case of tree, both ways it is working.

//window.parent.tabbar = parent.dhxLayout.cells("b").attachTabbar();
tabbar = parent.dhxLayout.cells("b").attachTabbar();

    window.parent.treeObj = dhxASLayout.cells("a").attachTree();
    or
    treeObj = dhxASLayout.cells("a").attachTree();

thanks. But in my code, window.parent is getting null

#5

And at reproduction of my example too?

#6

It is crashing at the following line
//window.parent.tabbar = parent.dhxLayout.cells(“b”).attachTabbar();

and not moving further. Not sure about the reason for crash. BTW we are using prototype. I need assign tabbar to the global object such that it can be accessed anywhere.

#7

Did you launch the file index.html?
We’ve tested it in different browsers. It works.

#8

can we have webex or gotomeeting?

#9

window.parent.globalTabbar= parent.dhxLayout.cells(“b”).attachTabbar();
this is the only line which is crashing. The given sample is working normally, can you try with prototype and see.

Also try & catch is not working for this block.

#10

Try it in google chrome. Its not working. Its working fine in firefox.

#11

The sample I sent is working, isn’t it? Please send one that doesn’t work.

#12

please test in google chrome 17.0 & Firefox 6.0 and reply.

  1. create globalTabbar in container1.js
  2. instantiate globalTabbar like window.parent.globalTabbar= parent.dhxLayout.cells(“b”).attachTabbar() in container2.js
  3. USe the globalTabbar in container3.js to setTabActive(“t1”);

Sorry, but it is almost my demo.
Please, make YOUR complete demo to check it. It can be some structure with button (with function to build a tabbar).
My demo is working (even with your changes). Please, make some one more.
