Updating autoloaded tab pages

[pyro]

OK, I have rebuilt the website and tried agin but got the same problem. I wonder if there is something that is not installed properly? I did have trouble with the installation (detailed in the only other thread I've posted).

There are other things that do not work too. For example, I cannot drag windows around (I used an exact copy of the code in one of the Ext.Net Examples), the cursor changes to a cross but the window cannot be dragged. Also, the installation never allowed me to add the Ext.Net controls to the VS toolbox (I think I got an error whenever I tried).

The Ext.Net installation instructions are very clear and must work for other people but it just didn't work for me. I think I'll try this at home and see if it works there. This is all very frustrating but not the fault of Ext.Net I don't think. Many thanks for your work and patience while helping me with this Daniil.

Have you heard of the problems I am having before?

Please keep one issue per one thread, otherwise it would be too hard to support a thread.

You can start new forum threads for each issue.

Regarding to the problem with tab reloading.

What Ext.NET sources do you use?

[pyro]

This is the list of files and versions in my project's Bin folder

Ext.Net.dll version 1.1.0.42036
Ext.Net.Utilities.dll version 1.1.0.42030
Newtonsoft.Json.dll version 3.5.0.0

[Daniil]

Please try with Ext.NET v1.2.

You can download it from our site.

Also I can't see where you save node's info into AppGlobals, i.e. where do you call the TreeSvrSideMethodCode method.
You should call it within a Click listener.

I had replied to this query by pointing out that the call was in the click listener on line 66. I knew it was there wthout even looking, having now looked I realise why you asked the question, it seems that I must have accidentally removed it somehow. I've only just discovered this - oops!

The click handler on Line 66 should look like this:

tree.Listeners.Click.Handler = "Ext.net.DirectMethods.TreeSvrSideMethodCode(node.text, node.id, node.attributes.qtip); parent.TabPanel1.activeTab.getBody().Ext.net.DirectMethods.HandleTreePanelSelection(node.text, node.id, node.attributes.qtip);"

Please try with Ext.NET v1.2.

You can download it from our site.

I've downloaded and installed v1.2 OK. When I run the website with a breakpoint set in the OnLoad sub, it still only fires the first time that the tab is activated. Subsequently, it does not fire at all.

By the way, I can see the page within the tab reload when I activate the tab, it visibly flickers as it is redrawn. It's just that the OnLoad event is not fired.

[pyro]

Just out of curiousity I added overrides for some other page events (see code below). They are all called when the tab is first activated but never again.

    Protected Overrides Sub OnPreRenderComplete(ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
        MyBase.OnPreRenderComplete(e)
    End Sub
    
    Protected Overrides Sub OnPreRender(ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
        MyBase.OnPreRender(e)
    End Sub
    
    Protected Overrides Sub OnInit(ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
        MyBase.OnInit(e)
    End Sub
    
    Protected Overrides Sub OnLoad(ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
        MyBase.OnLoad(e) 'Calls OnLoad method of the base (Page) class. This is necessary when you've overridden the OnLoad method.

        TextField1.Text = "Item Details for " & AppGlobals.s_SelectedNodeName & ", Node ID: " & AppGlobals.l_SelectedNodeID & ", Node QTip: " & AppGlobals.s_SelectedNodeQTip
    End Sub

[Daniil]

Hmm, please try to set up NoCache="true" for tab's AutoLoad. Does it change anything?

[pyro]

Yep that worked a treat! Now the page Onload is being fired every time. Thanks so much for you efforts Daniil, I wouldn't have got there without you.
