Description

The weblayout copies the layout of a DSP component instance, either from an external file or from an internal layout, into the $webinfo("LAYOUT") channel, in preparation for sending the page to the browser.

Example: postActivate Trigger for DSP

The default code of the DSP postActivate trigger generates the initial page or a page updated, depending on the value of $webresponsetype. The following example shows a simplified version of this code (excluding the error handling.)

trigger postActivate
selectcase $webresponsetype
case "UPDATE"         ; Update page
  websave               ; Generate data

case "FULLPAGE"       ; Initial page
  weblayout             ; Generate layout
  webdefinitions        ; Generate component definitions
  websave               ; Generate data
endselectcase
end; postActivate
