an easy way to do this is to key both repeaters off the same model:
class mypage extends webpage {
class resultsmodel extends loadabledetachablemodel {
load() { return solr.search(...); }
}
mypage() {
setmodel(new resultsmodel());
add(new listview("a", getmodel()));
add(new listview("b", getmodel()));
}
}
that way both repeaters are reusing the same cached result.
