How can I reload the content of a YUI ScrollView with a button?

I would like to reload the content of a YUI ScrollView in a similar manner to how a YUI DataTable can be reloaded via

myDataTable.showTableMessage("Loading...");
myDataTable.getDataSource().sendRequest('', { success:  myDataTable.onDataReturnInitializeTable, scope: myDataTable });

Is there a similar mechanism for reloading a YUI ScrollView?

Solution

  • Not directly, however you could use the node io plugin to reload the contents of the scroll view based on a timer or a user action. Something like this.

    Y.one('content-node-selector').load('url', 'selector', function(){
//do something if needed
scrollView.syncUI();
});

    Or you could just get the contentBox attribute and set the content that way (calling syncUI and handling any scroll changes you may need to make
