Specificaly, it seems impossible to have a link within a Frame change the token of the parent (top) page, without the whole thing refreshing.
For instance this; http://www.darkflame.co.uk/iFrame%20problem/FrameTest.html Click on the links in firefox, and the token changes nicely. Click on the links in IE, and the whole page refreshs. Now, the interesting thing is this problem only happens if the History is actualy used listened for. The code on that page is just; ========================================= public void onModuleLoad() { //iframe Frame testFrame = new Frame(); RootPanel.get().add(testFrame,100,100); testFrame.setSize("90%","90%"); testFrame.setUrl("2.html"); //* REMOVE THIS LINE AND IT WORKS IN IE* History.addValueChangeHandler(this); //* } public void onValueChange(ValueChangeEvent<String> event) { String historyToken = event.getValue(); Window.alert("page changed to:"+historyToken); } ======================== (just a standard project made with the plugin, with that code, and the html you see used on the two pages) ======================== My theory; I'm guessing that by using the GWT history, the page is put into an extra frame which somehow stops the links from working without refreshing the page. Allthough refering to "top" in the javascript still has the same effect. Interesting to note; The history changes first, then the page refreshs after....by a clear half second or so. I hope someone can help with this, as this is actually a really major issue for my project. Using iFrames becomes kinda worthless to me if the history tokens cant be relied apon as a way to pass messages to the containing app. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
