Hi there,

I'd like to know whether there is some way to obtain the html generated for a given component, say a window, from the server side.

With kind regards

Hi Varona,

You can try to send it to server side from client side, for example,
the fragment below will show the window's html in server console

<zk>
	<script type="text/javascript">
		function getHtml(id) {
			var node = jq('#'+id)[0],
				div = document.createElement('div'),
				$tmp = jq('$tmp'),
				tmp = $tmp[0];
			div.appendChild(node.cloneNode(true));
			$tmp.focus();
			tmp.value = div.innerHTML;
			$tmp.blur();
			tmp.value = '';
		}
	</script>
	<window id="win" title="test win" />
	<textbox id="tmp" onChange="System.out.println(event.getValue());" visible="false" />
	<button label="show window html in console">
		<attribute name="onClick">
			Clients.evalJavaScript("getHtml('"+win.getUuid()+"');");
		</attribute>
	</button>
</zk>

Regards,
