Adding an AJAX container

Add an AJAX container to a layout to group documents such as work items, cases, and harnesses. The AJAX container is not tied to any specific panel of a screen layout.

  1. Open the harness or section that you want to modify.
  2. On the Design tab, from the Structural list, drag AJAX container onto the work area.
  3. In the AJAX Container Settings window, configure the AJAX container:
    1. In the Type list, select an option to specify the container as a target for default, secondary, or tertiary content launched within a harness.
    2. Optional: To display contents of a section in the container, in the Default view list, select Section.
    3. Optional: To use tab navigation between multiple documents, select the Show as tabs check box.
    4. To define the number of documents that the container can hold, make a selection from the Maximum Documents list.
    5. Optional: To specify the accessibility options, in the Accessibility section, specify the Aria Role parameter.
      For a description of the various role types and subsequent values, go to the World Wide Web Consortium website.
    6. Click OK.
    7. Click Save.
  4. Configure the respective sections to launch in the secondary container.
    1. Open the section that you want to launch in the container, and then click the View properties icon.
    2. On the Actions tab of the Properties panel, click Create an action set.
    3. Click Add an event and select an event that the application user performs, such as Click or Hover.
    4. Click Add an action > All actions > Section, and then in the Target drop down select the container in which you want the section to launch.
    5. Click Submit.
    6. Click Save.
