Hello,

Another newbie question.

Is the javascript api for WebScripts and Dashlets different?

var name = userhome.properties.name works fine in a WebScript, but Dashlet is not able resolve userhome

Any pointers on what I might be missing here would be quite helpful.

Thanks and Regards

Chanchal

Of course they are diffrent ,they are totally in different runtime.
WebScripts's runtime container is alfresco ,so it can use alfresco's javascript api;
Dashlet 's runtime is share 's local runtime;
you can  use alfresco javascript api implement a webscript ,and develop a dashlet using that webscript
