A simple extension to CustomLayout allowing elements (

, , , etc) in the template to be marked with a "click-name" attribute. Elements marked with this attribute will cause the component to listen for mouse clicks on these elements.

Users of the ClickableCustomLayout class may register click listeners who're notified when these elements are clicked.

This is handy when dealing with custom/legacy HTML that requires super simple click handling functionality.

It's worth noting there are alternatives to using this add on, namely:

Anchors and URIFragmentUtility Wrapping things in layouts that implement LayoutClickNotifier

Sometimes the alternatives are undesirable, this add-on may help.

Example template xhtml:

A title

Some example text

This is a clickable caption

If the image or span is clicked on in the above example, listeners registered against the ClickableCustomLayout will be notified of the clicked "click-name".
