I believe you, however....


Then is it possible that the Ajax stuff is messing with the object upon selection? I have done popups... dozens and dozens over the years. However, with all the new AJAX, I can't necessarily read the tea leaves of unexpected ec results.

Here is the pattern of setting it.. Where is the context wrong?


public void setSelectedAlertSector(AlertSector pSector)
{
currentMasterAlert .setAlertGroupRelationship ((AlertSector )EOUtilities .localInstanceOfObject(currentMasterAlert.editingContext(), pSector));
}

That is not wrong, THIS is wrong:

list = session.ratings;


The objects in session.ratings are not in the EC used on this page. They need to be. You need to make a local copy in the correct EC.

But then why would I get the "first" object set?

Who cares why?  If they are not in the same EC, it won't work.

Chuck

And I am actually doing this:

public Rating selectedRating()
        {
                return currentMaster.rating();
        }


public void setSelectedRating(Rating pRating)
        {
currentMasterAlert .setRatingRelationship ((Rating)EOUtilities.localInstanceOfObject(ec(), pRating));
                System.out.println(pRating.name());
   }

YET in my javascript:

function createNameEntry(){
        var inAddMode = "<webobject name = "inAddMode"/>";
        $('NameEntry').value = "";
        var typeIndex  = $('typeSelect').selectedIndex;
        var sectorIndex  = $('sectorSelect').selectedIndex;
        var ratingIndex  = $('ratingSelect').selectedIndex;
        
        if($('typeSelect').selectedIndex > 0){
$('NameEntry').value += $('typeSelect').options[typeIndex].text +" - ";
        }
        if($('sectorSelect').selectedIndex > 0){
$('NameEntry').value += $ ('sectorSelect').options[sectorIndex].text+" - ";
        }
        if($('ratingSelect').selectedIndex > 0){
$('NameEntry').value += $ ('ratingSelect').options[ratingIndex].text;
        }
}

The NameEntry field gets set correctly and then upon submit.. it gets the "first" object of the list always.

The problem, no matter what I pick, it always selects the first non-null entry in the dropdown.

As evidenced by my printout.

YET -

In the javascript is does put the correct rating.name in the text field!
Just the object is getting somehow mis-referenced.

public void setSelectedRating(Rating pRating)
{
        System.out.println(pRating.name());
}
RatingPopUp : WOPopUpButton{
id = "ratingSelect";
list = session.ratings;
item = aRating;
name="CA_type";
class="MB_focusable MB_field width100";
selection = selectedRating;
displayString = aRating.name;
noSelectionString = "-- select rating --";

onChange = "javascript:createNameEntry()";
}

Thanks
James
