[Midas] CALLBACK_CORE_RESOURCES_SELECTED

[Michael Grauer]

Here's how you can get it from the DOM (this was adapted from
common.browser.js)

        if ( params.items.length > 0 ) {
            var itemId = params.items[0];
            var itemName = $('#browseTable
tr[type="item"][element="'+itemId+'"] td:first span').html();
            console.log(itemName);
            var itemNode = $('#browseTable
tr[type="item"][element="'+itemId+'"]');
            var folder = midas.parentOf(itemNode);
            var folderId = '';
            // we are in a subfolder view and the parent is the current
folder
            if(folder) {
                folderId = folder.attr('element');
            }
            else {
                folderId = json.folder.folder_id;
            }
            console.log(folderId);
        }
