Dojo is an open source set of JavaScript libraries that enhance the capabilities of native JavaScript. The Dojo Toolkit is supplied and loaded by Coach pages.

About this task

Commonly, Dojo is thought as a visual language for building rich web pages. Although this is an important component of the Dojo Toolkit, it is not its only function.

If you are developing complex Coach views using Dojo or another JavaScript library and need advanced features for JavaScript development, debugging, and testing, consider using an IDE tool, such as Rational® Application Developer, to initially create the JavaScript. You can then use the JavaScript that you develop as part of your Coach views in Process Designer.

Procedure

  1. Open a Coach component.
  2. Use Dojo calls.
    For example, use var x = dojo.byId("name of control"); to return the DOM node of the control by name.
