Hi, devorior,

Only java code (or, more correctly, Beanshell code) can be put inside the zscript tag. You don't put a xul component timer inside the zscript.

In your case, you can either new the Timer directly within the zscript. Or, you can declare the xul namespace, and declare the timer directly.

I'm newbie in ZK and XUL. Could you give me some code for example. I have tried to create Timer in zscript tag, but it doesn't work also. I wrote new Timer("500"), but it didn't help. Please, write some code for both cases.

Timer is a component though it is not visible, so you have to add it to a page by calling setParent.

Also, you have to listen to the onTimer event.

To manually create a timer, here is an example.

<window id="wnd" title="Timer demo" border="normal">
<label id="now"/>
<separator bar="true"/>
<button label="Stops timer" onClick="timer.stop()"/>
<button label="Starts timer" onClick="timer.start()"/> <zscript> Timer tm = new Timer(1000); tm.setRepeats(true); tm.setParent(wnd);

private class TimerListener implements EventListener {
public boolean isAsap() {
return true;
}
public void onEvent(Event event) throws UiException {
event.target.getFellow("now").setValue(new Date().toString());
}
}
tm.addEventListener("onTimer", new TimerListener()); </zscript> </window>

On the other hand, you could declare it in ZUML. Following is the equivalent
example:
<window title="Timer demo" border="normal">
<label id="now"/>
<timer id="timer" delay="1000" repeats="true"
onTimer="now.setValue(new Date().toString())"/>
<separator bar="true"/>
<button label="Stops timer" onClick="timer.stop()"/>
<button label="Starts timer" onClick="timer.start()"/> </window>

maybe the problem is in file extension. I'm using .zhtml extension in order to use common HTML tags. When I have tried your last example in .zhtml page I saw JavaScript error that object "timer" not found. What extension should I use to work with both HTML and XUL tags?

Refer to the user guide (especially, "ZUML and Namespace", "ZUL or ZHTML").

The concept is ZK uses the extension to decide the default component set. For referencing components from other set, you have to specify XML namespace.
