  2. Topics • Web Programming Model • Browser Model • Server Model

  3. Window Object • Used to obtain information about: • the state of a browser window • the document in a window • Window events • Summary • Properties: parent, screenLeft, …. • Methods: open, resizeBy, … • Collections: frames • Events: onError, onLoad, … • Objects: event, document, external, screen, … • Example: cse686/lecture2/DHTMLex1.htm

  4. Event Object • Event objects provide information about events on a web page. • Summary • Properties: altKey, button, clientX, keyCode, … • Methods: none • Collections: bookmarks, (data) boundElements • Events: none • Example: cse686/lecture2/DHTMLex2.htm

  5. Document Object • Represents the HTML document in a browser window • Summary • Properties: BGCOLOR, DIR • Methods: attachEvent, createElement, … • Collections: all, children, images, … • Events: onclick, ondrag, … • Example: cse686/lecture2/DHTMLex3.htm

  6. Form Object • Used to collect and display user information, validate input, and send data to a web server. • Summary • Properties: action, firstChild, method, … • Methods: submit, … • Collectons: all, elements, … • Events: onkeydown, onsubmit, … • Example: cse686/lecture2/DHTMLex4.htm

  7. Application Object • Share information between all users of your web site. • Summary • Properties: None • Methods: Contents.Remove, Contents.RemoveAll, Lock, Unlock • Collections: Contents, StaticObjects • Events: OnEnd, OnStart

  8. Request Object • Retrieve information from the current user. • Access all information in the HTTP request. • Used to extract data from a form or URL parameters. • Summary • Properties: Total bytes • Methods: BinaryRead • Collections: ClientCertificate, Cookies, Form, QueryString, ServerVariables • Events: None • Example: see DHTMLex4.asp handout

  9. Response Object • Return information to the user’s browser. • Summary • Properties: Buffer, CacheControl, Charset, ContentType, Expires, ExpiresAbsolute, IsClientConnected, PICS, Status • Methods: AddHeader, AppendToLog, BinaryWrite, Clear, End, Flush, Redirect, Write • Collections: Cookies • Events: None • Example: cse686/lecture2/ASPex1.asp • Example:cse686/lecture2/ASPex2.asp

  10. Server Object • Determine server specific properties. • Load ActiveX dlls • Summary • Properties: ScriptTimeout • Methods: CreateObject, Execute, GetLastError, HTMLEncode, MapPath, Transfer, URLEncode • Events: None • Example: cse686/lecture2/ASPex5.asp

  11. Session Object • Saves information about the current user as cookies on the client machine. • Summary • Properties: CodePage, LCID, SessionID, Timeout • Methods: Abandon, Contents.Remove, Contents.RemoveAll • Collections: Contents, StaticObjects • Events: Session_OnEnd, Session_OnStart

  12. Server Component Objects • Dictionary Object • FileSystemObject Object • AdRotator Component • Browser Capabilities Component • Content Linking Component • ActiveX Data Objects

  13. Dictionary Object • Create Dictionary Object • Set objDict = _ Server.CreateObject(“Scripting.Dictionary”) • Add item: objDict.Add key, value • objDict.Add “Name” “Jim Fawcett” • objDict.Add “Employer” “Syracuse Univ” • Size: objDict.Count • Item: objDict.Item(key) • Example: cse686/lecture2/ASPex3.asp

  14.
