OnClientRowSelection for tableView's

Question

Hi,
I'm working on a portal application which utalises epcf eventing to allow an iView to send messages another iView. Basically a table is displayed in the left iView and, depending which row the user selects, a message containing data from the selected row is sent to the right iView.
I initialy tried to utalise the onClientRowSelection('javascript') feature of the tableView htmlb element (with selectionMode="SINGLESELECT") which is supposed to invoke a javascrip function whose name is supplied as a parameter. However, after spending some time fudging trying to get it working, I was eventually took another route and turned one of the cells into a link.
I was wondering whether anyone else has had any experience using onClientRowSelection and were successful in calling some javascript.

The event object exists, it's not passed, see below.

<%@ taglib uri="tagLib" prefix="hbj" %>
<jsp:useBean id="model" scope="application" class="com.sapportals.htmlb.table.DefaultTableViewModel" />
<%@ page import="com.sapportals.htmlb.TreeNode"%>
<hbj:content id="contentID" >
  <hbj:page title="pageTitle">
    <hbj:form id="formID" >
      <hbj:tableView
        id="myTableView"
        selectionMode="SINGLESELECT"
        model="model"
      >
        <% myTableView.setOnClientRowSelection("showUpTableContent()"); %>
        <% myTableView.setJsObjectNeeded(true); %>
      </hbj:tableView>
    </hbj:form>
  </hbj:page>
  <script language='JavaScript'>
  function showUpTableContent(){
    alert('it was a row ' + htmlbevent.obj.getClickedRow());
  </script>
</hbj:content>
See https://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=26395 for methods which exist on HTMLB TableView JS object. To retrieve a certain value, set the key column in your table.
Hope it helps
