Re: Dojo checkboxes

Wednesday at 10:55 am - Link

"Ah, thanks very much. For anyone interested, I've discovered the reason for this (copied from http://tinyurl.com/58oqey ): Here's the difference: dijit.byId() returns a Dijit widget instance - technically, an instance of dijit._Widget or one of its subclasses like dijit.Toolbar or dijit.TreeNode. So here's the way to remember it: * If you need a DOM Node, use dojo.byId. You need a DOM node anytime you call a standard browser function, change a standard property, etc. * If you need a widget, use dijit.byId. From it you can access all of the attributes, methods and extension points listed in Part 2. Useful stuff to know when using digit widgets." - Gareth Jones

A shockingly bad story from Jonathan Hopkins on Vodafone broadband usage abroad. Appauling customer service as well as a ridiculous bill. Shame on you Vodafone. - Gareth Jones
