Re: Ajaxanywhere

I think the AA filter is totally by passed if the list of zones to reload is null (getZonesToReload returns null). In our app we mostly have links and returning null works fine.

Null? I remember some tests returning '' and getting a NullPointerException. What should be the reason why returning NULL should work?

Hi Enrique,

If you want you button or link action not to go through AA you have to return null for those in  getZonesToReload.

Hope that helps,

Hi,

Has anyone successfully used Ajaxanywhere inside a JSF page with a piece of the page being "ajaxed" and the other piece not? Let me give an example: imagine a JSF page where the selection of a combo box must force the refresh of another combo box. This zone is "ajaxed" using <aa:zoneJSF>. But buttons to save or go to another page in the navigation are not "ajaxed".

My problem is that the "ajaxed" zone works great, but then I have a button to save, and another one to navigate to another page, and those buttons don't seem to work. When I click them a request is sended, but none of their respective actions are executed, no error messages are shown (I have a global tag in the page). It seems like a request with an action returning simply null (not doing anything).

My _javascript_ for Ajaxanywhere looks like this:

ajaxAnywhere.getZonesToReload = function(url,submitButton)
{
    if (submitButton.id.equals('myAjaxButton')
        return "dataZone"; 
} 
 
ajaxAnywhere.formName = "mainForm"; 
ajaxAnywhere.substituteFormSubmitFunction(); 
ajaxAnywhere.substituteSubmitButtonsBehavior(true); 

What am I doing wrong? How do you have to indicate non-ajaxed buttons in the getZonesToReload _javascript_ callback?
