dojo div

To use this tag:

Add: <%@ taglib prefix="sx" uri="/struts-dojo-tags" %> to your page.
The head tag must be included on the page, which can be configured for performance or debugging purposes.
If the parseContent parameter for the head tag is false (it is false by default), then the id tag is required.

Description

This tag generates an HTML div that loads its content using an XMLHttpRequest call, via the dojo framework. When the "updateFreq" is set the built in timer will start automatically and reload the div content with the value of "updateFreq" as the refresh period(in milliseconds). Topics can be used to stop(stopTimerListenTopics) and start(startTimerListenTopics) this timer.

When used inside a "tabbedpanel" tag, each div becomes a tab. Some attributes are specific to this use case, like:

refreshOnShow: div content is realoded when tab is selected
closable: Tab will have close button
preload: load div content after page is loaded
