jsTree - Get the selected node on loaded.jstree event
Seems according to the documentation of the demo here :
you can do :
.one("reselect.jstree", function (event, data) { });
or
.bind("select_node.jstree", function (event, data) {
// `data.rslt.obj` is the jquery extended node that was clicked
alert(data.rslt.obj.attr("id"));
})
Read carefully the documentation as :
one is used, this is because if
refresh
is called those events are triggered
// 1) if using the UI plugin bind to select_node
.bind("select_node.jstree", function (event, data) {
// `data.rslt.obj` is the jquery extended node that was clicked
alert(data.rslt.obj.attr("id"));
})
// 2) if not using the UI plugin - the Anchor tags work as expected
// so if the anchor has a HREF attirbute - the page will be changed
// you can actually prevent the default, etc (normal jquery usage)
.delegate("a", "click", function (event, data) { event.preventDefault(); })
For the last event delegate
, instead of writing event.preventDefault();
, you can make your redirection correctly if you're not using the UI plugin, and write : window.location = $(this).attr('href');

How can I get the selected node on the loaded.jstree event?
what should I do in the event handler:
$('#Tree').bind('loaded.jstree', function(event, data){//TODO: How to get the selected node here?}).jstree();
By the way, I found out that the event data arg object contains a function called get_selected() but couldn't get anything from it.
My purpose is to redirect the client to the current selected node (by 'url' attribute).
Thanks in advance
