Putting it all Together

The widget implementation must be placed in an independent JavaScript file. The file must be placed under the directory, /web/js/package-path, in the Java class path. Since the widget name is SimpleLabel and the package name is com.foo, the file path is /web/js/com/foo/SimpleLabel.js

zk.$package('simplelabel');

com.foo.SimpleLabel = zk.$extends(zk.Widget, { _value : , // default value

getValue : function() { return this._value; },

setValue : function(value) { if (this._value != value) { this._value = value; if (this.desktop) this.$n().innerHTML = zUtl.encodeXML(value); } }

}); Having set-up the ability to handle states we now need to create the component view. This can be accomplished using two methods.
