AbstractAjaxTimerBehaviour sets Transient object to null when same page in opened in new tab

[Lina Thomas]

Hi

I have a Page on which I am have to execute a long running task when
a form is submitted.  This is what I do


   1. I have a transient FutureTask member variable in the page
   2. On submit of the form i create a callable and instantiate
   the FutureTask
   3. I start the AbstractAjaxTimerBehaviour which keeps checking if
   the FutureTask is done before it can update a panel in the page with the
   result of the execution.
  - This works fine when I'm on the same page
  - Now if I submit the form and while the AbstractAjaxTimerBehaviour is
  still polling I open the same page *in a new tab* *within the same
  session* then the reference to the FutureTask in the first page
  (previous tab) becomes null.

I couldn't find any solution to this problem. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks

Open a Modal Window within a Panel from a FileUpload form

[Lina Thomas]

Hi Hi

 I have a page that has a FileUpload form. Once the file is uploaded
successfully onSubmit of the form I need to open a panel in ModalWindow.
There is no Ajax event to fire which leaves me searching for ways to open
the ModalWindow.

I need to open the ModalWindow only on successful upload of the file.

 W hen I say success page, I mean within the onSubmit method on the same
page.

 Something like this
 Form Form = new Form(FORM_NAME, model)
  {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;

@Override
protected void onSubmit()
{
  FileUpload upload = uploadField.getFileUpload();
  //open ModalWindow
}
  }

Thanks
