Question

I have an image which on loading i had to call a JSNI function. I had googled that IE doesn’t fires or fires before image is loaded for GWT.

I want to have a quick and simple fix to solve this problem.

My code is as follows,

Image newWindowImg = new Image("images/new_window.png") {
            public void onBrowserEvent(Event event) {
                if (event.getTypeInt() == Event.ONLOAD) {
                    addCustomToolTip();
                } else if (event.getTypeInt() == Event.ONMOUSEOVER
                        || event.getTypeInt() == Event.ONMOUSEMOVE
                        || event.getTypeInt() == Event.ONFOCUS) {
                    Window.alert("Hi");
                    addCustomToolTip();
                }
                super.onBrowserEvent(event);
            }
        };

Any idea how to make it work for IE.

Thanks in advance.

GWT doesn’t support onLoad event for Images in IE.

There is a bug tracker for it http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=863

According to bug tracker the fix was available in 1.6
