Method Detail

createContent

public void createContent(String id,
                          Element parent)
Create XHTML content in the provided parent DOM Element. A typical usage for this method would be:

<contentProvider id="contentProviderId" class="xx.yy.IntroContentProvider" pluginId="xx.yy.id"/>

A parent DOM Element will be passed to allow for adding dynamic content by manipulating the Java XML DOM for the XHTML file. A div is created with an id equal to the id specified in the contentProvider element, and is passed as the parent. In the above example, the DOM element representing a div with id=myContentProviderDivId would be the parent passed.

Parameters:
id - the unique identifier of the content element. The same content provider class can be reused for several elements and the id can be used to tell them apart.
parent - the parent xml Element where dynamic content will be added as children.
