Custom widget defined in an HTML page loaded as dojox.layout.contentpane using href and inserted as tab page not parsing custom widgets

I was trying to add a new tab page using tab.addchild programmatically after creating dojox.layout.contentpane with href attribute.

Following is the sample snippet of the relevant code (tabMain is tab control placed in the page)

  dijit.byId('tabMain').addChild(new dojox.layout.ContentPane({
     title: 'My page',
     href: 'country.jsp',
     closable: true,
     parseOnLoad: true,
     postCreate: function () {
         dojo.parser.parse();
     }));

This country.jsp has custom widget (that contain two standard dijit widgets).
But the custom widgets are not parsed and hence I am not getting the custom widget properly loaded, where as other standard dijits mentioned in the country.jsp loads perfectly.

To rule out the problem with my page and custom widget declarations, I put this custom widget directly in a page without loading inside a contentpane/tab (and loaded inside as dialog page), it works fine. So, I assume that the dojo parser is not parsing the custom widget, when I load it in the content pane as shown in the above code.

Does this mean, custom widget cannot be used for such type of loading or Am I missing anything extra to force the parser to work? I tried running parser on load, downloadend, downloadstart, ready events, but with no luck.

Any help would be appreciated.

Without knowing anything about DOJO, your provided snippet is missing a closing bracket inside the ContentPane constructor call, making it invalid (and thus not parsable).

Try:

dijit.byId('tabMain').addChild(new dojox.layout.ContentPane({
    title: 'My page',
    href: 'country.jsp',
    closable: true,
    parseOnLoad: true,
    postCreate: function () {
        dojo.parser.parse();
    }
}));
