Overview

The Dispatcher satisfies a very common need of developers using the YUI library: dynamic execution of Ajax response content. Typical strategies to fulfill this need, like executing the innerHTML property or referencing remote scripts, are unreliable due to browser incompatibilities. The Dispatcher normalizes this behavior across all a-grade browsers.

Usage

Dispatcher extends Base, here is the syntax to create a dispatcher obj:

// Call the "use" method, passing in "gallery-dispatcher". This will 

// load the dispatcher module and all the required dependencies. 

YUI().use("gallery-dispatcher", function(Y) {

  var obj = new Y.Dispatcher({

    node: '#demo'

  });

  // Setting a simple content

  obj.set('content', '<p>content that will be injected within #demo</p>');

  // Loading a fragment through AJAX

  obj.set('uri', '/get/html/fragment.php');

});

Use "uri" or "content" attributes to inject new content within a "node":

• content: to inject a html fragment into a Node.
• uri: to use io module to load an html fragment and inject it into a Node.
• normalize: set to true to enabling normalization process in you plan to inject a html document instead of a regular html fragment.

There are also numerous events that you can listen for during the life cycle as well, check the documentation for more details.
