Hi Nick,

I have done that disable thing by just adding action as null, and changing css for that perticular menu item.

Thank you,
Bipin Sutariya

Hi,

Thank you for your reply on my question for menu disable. Now i need to implement Focus and UnFocus functionality in this same class. I tried it out but focus and unfocus event is not picking up by onBrowserEvent.

Can you please suggest, how i can implement this?

Thank you,
Bipin

Hi Marc,
Both are pretty close, but if I had to pick one I’d go with GWT in Action. I liked the structure and the order of topics a little better. I don’t think I actually finished GWT in Practice but it’s still on my desk and use it for reference.

I’ve read a few of the “in Action” books lately and if anyone is looking at the Apache Wicket framework I’d highly recommend Wicket in Action.

Nice sample. You mention 2 books about GWT. Which one do you prefer and why?

I’m not sure if you can do that right out of the box. If you need it you could probably subclass the MenuItem, add a “disabled” member, and change the style to match if (disabled == true).

Very cool!
My code is pre-1.6 and I’ve been thinking about redoing with handlers, but just haven’t had the time.

Nick, i took your concept and did the same using handlers.

I registered ContextMenuHandler, MouseupHandlers and also DoubleClickHandlers. I get the menu when i right click, but at the same time the browser contextMenu appears. i am not able to disable it. I am using FF 3.0.

public void onContextMenu(ContextMenuEvent event) {
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();

}

@Override
public void onMouseUp(MouseUpEvent event) {
// Stop all default activities.
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();

if (event.getNativeButton() == NativeEvent.BUTTON_RIGHT) {
int x = event.getClientX();
int y = event.getClientY();
pp.setPopupPosition(x, y);
pp.show();
}

}

@Override
public void onDoubleClick(DoubleClickEvent event) {
event.stopPropagation();
event.preventDefault();
}
