Hi All,
I noticed that if a form contains a file field then AJAX is
completely disabled for that form. I've patched my cforms.js so that
it disables AJAX only if the file field contains a value. Is this
valid?
Yes, definitely.
Shall I put the patch on JIRA? It's very small - I attached it to this
mail.
On a more general note would it not be possible to check only the
fields which are to be refreshed on that browser update before
deciding whether a full page update is needed, or am I
misunderstanding something?
Full page reload only occurs when we exit form.showForm(). Other than
that, only partial updates are sent back to the browser.
I understand, I think, but in my form it doesn't seem to work that way
(this is with a file field).
I have something like...
<fd:group id="group1">
<fd:widgets>
<fd:upload id="upload"/>
[...]
</fd:widgets>
</fd:group>
<fd:booleanfield id="boolean">
<fd:on-value-changed>
<fd:javascript>
// toggle group2 visibility
</fd:javascript>
</fd:on-value-changed>
</fd:booleanfield>
<fd:group id="group2">
<fd:widgets>
<fd:field id="field1"/>
[...]
<fd:field id="field10"/>
</fd:widgets>
</fd:group>
Using the boolean field to toggle group2 works fine with my patch as
long as the upload field doesn't have a value. However when it does
have a value the whole page is refreshed even though only group1
contains the upload field and it is group2 that is the subject of the
browser update. Also after toggling the area again after a full page
refresh I notice that the value is removed from my file field. Is there
something I missed?
Thanks,
Robin
