JavaScript Reference
The JavaScript examples in this manual do not refer to their use in any particular context.
The examples could be used within functions of a JavaScript program or directly as event
handlers to buttons, hyper-links etc. Our web site illustrates such uses; alternatively refer
to an appropriate JavaScript guide.
Filenames and hyperlink addresses are expressed using the Internet URL address format
(Uniform Resource Locator), e.g. “http://mysite/myimage.tif”. If any part of the address
before “myimage.tif” is not included then the applet will assume a base address that is the
same as the applet location (the codebase).
With the exception of filenames and hyperlink addresses, all parameters are case
insensitive.
Security note: Change since ViewONE 3.0.99 Standard and 1.0.99 Pro
Some Javascript methods are disabled by default and can only be enabled by setting the
JavaScripExtensions HTML parameter set to true.
e.g.
<PARAM NAME=“JavaScriptExtensions” VALUE=“true”>
This is to prevent unauthorized users from attempting to manipulate ViewONE through
Javascript methods in order to obtain access to secure
information/documents/annotations.
The methods that are restricted in this manner are clearly marked within this document.
