getObjectFullName (webtop script and webtop tray applets)

Syntax

String getObjectFullName(int objectNumber)

Description

Returns the TFN name of the object represented by the specified link.

objectNumber specifies a link on the webtop. The value 0 specifies the first link on the webtop, 1 the second and so on. The method returns an error if objectNumber is greater than the number of links on the webtop.

Note You can use the applet's ObjectNumber parameter to change the number from which links are numbered (default is zero).

This method can be used with either the webtop script applet or the webtop tray applet.

Examples

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
 
function showLinkTFN() {
   output = "The webtop tray contains links to these objects:\n";
   count_links = document.applets["Tarantella Webtop"].getNumberOfObjects();
 
   for (var link = 0 ; link < count_links ; link++) {
      tfn_name = document.applets["Tarantella Webtop"].getObjectFullName(link);
      output = output + "\t" + tfn_name + "\n"; 
   }
 
   alert(output);
}
 
</SCRIPT>
 
<FORM>
   <INPUT TYPE=button VALUE="TFN Names?" onclick="showLinkTFN()">
</FORM>

This example adds a button beneath the links on users' webtops. When a user clicks this button, Secure Global Desktop displays the TFN names of all objects which have a link on the webtop.

Add the code to the HTML document containing the webtop tray applet (left.html, in the sco/tta/standard webtop theme), after the TTAAPPLET declaration.

Note This example assumes you are using the sco/tta/standard webtop theme. If you're using another theme, with different frame names and layouts, or different applet names, you'll need to modify the lines that invoke the getNumberOfObjects and getObjectFullName methods to access the webtop tray applet used by your new theme.
