[CLOSED] Layout Issue in Hidden Container

[amitpareek]

Hi,

The subject may not be 100% correct. Here's an issue which has taken me looooong to identify. Run the following code in IE you will get an error "Invalid Argument". This is specific to ComboBox. To remove the error, do either of the following:

1) Set the FieldLabel property of cmbMonthlyWeekOfMonth. The error will disappear.
2) Remove the Hidden Property of conMonthly container.

<ext:Panel runat="server" Height="80" ID="recurringOptionsPanel" Border="false">
    <Items>
        <ext:Container ID="conMonthly" Hidden="true" ForceLayout="true" runat="server" Layout="fit" PaddingSummary="5 0 0 0"
            Height="40">
            <Items>
                
                <ext:Panel runat="server" ID="panel1" Border="false">
                    <Items>
                        <ext:HBoxLayout ID="HBoxLayout4" runat="server" PaddingSummary="5 0 0 0">
                            <BoxItems>
                                <ext:BoxItem Flex="2">
                                    <ext:ComboBox runat="server" ID="cmbMonthlyWeekofMonth" SelectedIndex="0">
<Template ID="ctl249"></Template>
                                        <Items>
                                            <ext:ListItem Text="First" Value="1" />
                                            <ext:ListItem Text="Second" Value="2" />
                                            <ext:ListItem Text="Third" Value="3" />
                                            <ext:ListItem Text="Fourth" Value="4" />
                                            <ext:ListItem Text="Last" Value="5" />
                                        </Items>
                                    </ext:ComboBox>
                                </ext:BoxItem>
                            </BoxItems>
                        </ext:HBoxLayout>
                    </Items>
                </ext:Panel>
            </Items>
        </ext:Container>
    </Items>
</ext:Panel>

Hi,

Fixed. Please update from SVN

Works!...Can you suggest me a better way to debug... The errors are so weird that it gets really difficult to pinpoint the precise problem.... Like in this case the error was "Invalid Argument"... Going through IE debugger was a pain...

[Vladimir]

Hi,

Just enable debugging in the IE and VS will intercept any js error if you run application in the debug mode under VS (and switch to the js code where arror is appeared) . You will get ability to debug js code using VS debugger
