I would like to learn more about the events occurring in my datatable. How can I configure it to display all the events either in the browser console or in a YUI console?

My YUI instance is configured with

So, I figured I shoud see the events in the browser log, still no events, so I guess I must be missing something.

Thanks.

Yep, it works. And the next natural question has to do with filtering. Can I filter the events by origin and or event type?

I guess you mean logInclude and logExclude.

Thanks.

That's a documentation bug. The correct name of the event is "render".

There are two things that determine if a Widget (any Widget, Panel included) is visible:

- The widget is rendered (widget.render() was called), that is inserted into the page
- The widget is visible (the "visible" attribute is set to true)

You can subscribe for the rendering of the widget via the "render" event:

widget.on('render', function () {})

And you can listen to the change of the "visible" attribute via the "visibleChange" event:

widget.on('visibleChange', function (e) {
if (e.newVal) {
// widget is now visible
}
});

If you widget starts with "visible" set to true, you don't need to listen to the "visibleChange" event if you just want to know when the widget is first shown.

I recommend that you read the Widget component User Guide
