Hi there

I'd like to call a b4j function inside a javascript function, here is an example..

B4X:
#if JavascriptSmart
$(document).on('pagebeforeshow', '#headline', function(){
  ${BANano.CallSub(Me, "LoadSelectedMovie", Null)}
});
#End If

Sub LoadSelectedMovie
    'clear the listview content
    ml.clear
    'get list of movies
    movies = modMovies.moviesList
    Log(movies)
End Sub

This is inside a class module called headline.

Thanks.

PS: This currently works but need to do it the banano way:

B4X:
_banano_moviedb_headline.loadselectedmovie();

This can currently not be done (maybe in a class, but certainly not in a module).

It will be possible in the next version like this:

B4X:
Sub Process_Globals
   ...
   Private MethodLoad As Object
End Sub

'create the page
Public Sub Create(thisApp As JQMApp)  
   ...  
   MethodLoad = BANano.CallBack(Me, "LoadSelectedMovie", Null)       
End Sub

#if JavascriptSmart
$(document).on('pagebeforeshow', '#headline', function(){
  ${MethodLoad}  
});
#End If
'
Sub LoadSelectedMovie
...

However, a much better way is doing it the real 'BANano' way:

At the end of your create method:
B4X:
...
   Dim JQ As BANanoObject
   JQ.Initialize("$")
   
   Dim document As BANanoObject = BANano.Window.GetField("document")
   JQ.Selector(document).RunMethod("on",Array("pagebeforeshow", "#headline", BANano.CallBack(Me, "LoadSelectedMovie",Null)))
End Sub

The last solution is perfect, thing is there are also other methods following the same methodology of handling pages before, during after they show. Ta!

B4X:
Sub PageBeforeShow(pgID As String, methodName As String, methodArgs As List, EventHandler As Object)
    pgID = pgID.tolowercase
    pgID = $"#${pgID}"$
    Dim document As BANanoObject = BANano.Window.GetField("document")
    JQ.Selector(document).RunMethod("on",Array("pagebeforeshow", pgID, BANano.CallBack(EventHandler, methodName, methodArgs)))
End Sub

#OneNeedsToExploreThis BANanoObject stuff.

Thanks a million!
