Mambots are pluggable elements that perform a specific function when they are triggered.

These are event triggers for mambots:
onPrepareContent

function function_name( $published, &$row, $mask=0, $page=0 )

$row is a variable reference to the content conject:
id, title, title_alias, introtext, sectionid, state, catid, created, created_by, create_by_alias, modified, modified_by, checked_out, checked_out_time, publish_up, publish_down, images, urls, ordering, metakey, metadesc, access, hits, readmore, author, usertype, section, category, groups, sec_id, cat_id, text, _Itemid, Itemid_link, link_on, link_text

onAfterDisplayTitle

onBeforeDisplayContent

onAfterDisplayContent

onInitEditor

function function_name()


onGetEditorContents

function function_name( $editorArea, $hiddenField )


onEditorArea

function function_name( $name, $content, $hiddenField, $width, $height, $col, $row )


onSearch

function function_name( $text )


Writing a Mambot

1. register function:

$_PLUGINS->registerFunction( 'event_name', 'function_name' );

2. implement the function:

function function_name( parameters... )
