hs.objectType

One of 'ajax', 'iframe' or 'swf'. Defines how you want to display the link target.

Using objectType with hs.htmlExpand you can choose to display the link's href in either an iframe or within the page using AJAX to retrieve the content. The objectType can also be 'swf' to display Flash content. See the tutorial under AJAX content, Iframe content and Flash content for further explanation.

Details

Requires	html
Type	string
Default value	null

Example

1) AJAX content

<a class="highslide" href="../include-short.htm" 
      onclick="return hs.htmlExpand(this, { objectType: 'ajax'})">
   Click to open
</a>

Click to see the effect. Note that when using AJAX, the inserted content takes the styles of the parent page.

2) Iframe content

This is the exact counterpart to AJAX content.

<a class="highslide" href="../include-short.htm" 
      onclick="return hs.htmlExpand(this, {  objectType: 'iframe'})">
   Click to open
</a>

Click to see the effect. On the contrary to AJAX, iframe popups take the styles defined in the included page itself.

Click to open

3) Flash content

Include a Flash movie. Additional Flash options are set through the hs.swfOptions object.

<a class="highslide" href="../Flash.swf" 
	onclick="return hs.htmlExpand(this, {  objectType: 'swf', 
	objectWidth: 300, objectHeight: 250 })">
   Click to open
</a>

Click to see the effect.
