Hi, I guess no reply means it's not a simple FAQ ;-)
So to start it easy:
If I have a DataTable, with a FilterToolbar, and
a TextFilteredPropertyColumn, how is the
TextFilteredPropertyColumn supposed to submit, i.e.
apply it's input for filtering.
Pressing ENTER will only work if there is not other
text input on the form / on the page.
Cheers, Tom.

Hello,
(I have been unable to locate a current and working
wicketstuff mailing list, so I am sending to
wicket mailing list instead. I searched for quite
some time. This is really confusing with the old
SF list still accepting subscribe requests etc etc)
We are using wicket, wicketstuff and a colletion of
wicket best pratices found on the net. Thus, we use
DataTable with sorting and filtering.
This works great, but I noticed a few days ago, that as
soon as you have 2 or more TextFilteredPropertyColumn
in your FilterToolbar, the browser will not submit the
form upon pressing enter.
Of course this is standard behaviour for a browser, but
there must be a solution for this situation, must it not ?
I found the Form.setDefaultButton(), but this requires an
explicit (and visible) defaultSubmittingComponent, which I
don't have or want.
I also found the GoFilter / GoAndClearFilter, but these seem
to me to be for usage within a form, but not within a DataTable
FilterToolbar. (potentially, every column is occupied by a
filter - where would I put the GoFilter ?)
To submit the filters, probably some JavaScript magic is
required, BUT - the Javascript is (already) in the
Form.appendDefaultButtonField() / .onComponentTagBody(),
at least partially, is it not ?
To make it worse, we have a SubmittingOrderByLink as found
on the net, which has another "funky javascript submit
magic" like
protected final String getTriggerJavaScript() {
if (getForm() != null) {
// find the root form - the one we are really going to submit
Form<?> root = getForm().getRootForm();
StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer(100);
sb.append("var e=document.getElementById('");
sb.append(root.getHiddenFieldId());
sb.append("'); e.name=\'");
sb.append(getInputName());
sb.append("'; e.value='x';");
sb.append("var f=document.getElementById('");
sb.append(root.getMarkupId());
sb.append("');");
if (getForm() != root) {
sb.append("var ff=document.getElementById('");
sb.append(getForm().getMarkupId());
sb.append("');");
} else {
sb.append("var ff=f;");
}
sb.append("if (ff.onsubmit != undefined) { if (ff.onsubmit()==false)
return false; }");
sb.append("f.submit();e.value='';e.name='';return false;");
return sb.toString();
} else {
return null;
}
}
Actually, I should not add a 3rd magic submit solution to the page,
should I ? I'm not happy with all that, and very confused.
I hope you can point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance,
Cheers, Tom.
PS: I could not find a single place of Documentation for DataTable
& related. If there were a definite correct place in the wiki, I would
add some findings and examples later...
