Examples

Basic Example

Copy to clipboard
{AJAXLOAD(url="http://example.com/tiki-index.php" selector="#page-data")}alert(data.length + " bytes of data received"); {AJAXLOAD}

Superfish menu from a structure

In order to make page loading faster you can use AJAXLOAD to load a menu from a structure asynchronously. Put the menu in a module in a page (here called "structure menu test") and add this to a wiki enabled custom module (here called "test_structure_menu") and assign it to the topbar module zone ( warning: if you leave out the {literal} tags you will probably make your tiki unusable and will need to edit the database to get it back!).

Copy to clipboard
{literal}{AJAXLOAD(url="tiki-index_raw.php?page=structure+menu+test" selector="#structure_menu")} setTimeout(function () {$("#mod-test_structure_menutopbar1").superfish();}, 500); {AJAXLOAD}{/literal}
