string launchByObjectNumber(int objectNumber)
Activates the specified link, just as if a user had clicked it on their webtop.
objectNumber specifies a link on the webtop. The value
0
specifies the first link on the webtop, 1
the second and so on.
Note You can use the applet's ObjectNumber
parameter to change the number from which links are numbered (default
is zero).
This method returns OK
if Tarantella successfully
launches the application (or displays the document) represented by the link,
and Error
otherwise.
This method can be used with either the webtop script applet or the webtop tray applet.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> function launchFirstLink() { document.applets["Tarantella Webtop"].launchByObjectNumber(0); } </SCRIPT> <FORM> <INPUT TYPE=button VALUE="Activate First Link" onclick="launchFirstLink()"> </FORM>
This example adds a button beneath the links on users' webtops. When a user clicks this button, Tarantella activates the first link on their 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 line
that invokes the launchByObjectNumber
method to access
the webtop tray applet used by your new theme.
