I am using version 2.5 and have found one computer (out of three available) has
this issue.  I go to select an item from the droplist and the droplist freezes,
not allowing me to select an item.  I can move to another control, but the list
stays on top and does not roll-up.  I am using IE8 on Windows Vista.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Thx!

Peter,

    Ok here is some additional information on formatting.

If I take that easylistbox in the example code given.   The Height property in
the .aspx ELB:EasyListBox works correctly, but the Width is hardcoded to "Auto"
and cannot be changed as a parameter.   The font-size also doesnt work as a
parameter but both the font-size and width properties will work if I put them in
a .CSS class.   At the same time, if I put Height in the .css class, it does not
work correctly.

Although at the moment, it seems that i can get it to format correctly by using
some parameters in once place, and some in the other place, I know it has to do
with it being in a container, or not rendered on pageload, or inside of an ajax
container.   So at least for the formatting there ARE workarounds, but several
things do not work correctly.

If I use the following commands in Javascript to make an EasyListBox control
Visible/Hidden:
ELB_ShowList('<%= lbMSElist.ClientID %>');
ELB_HideList('<%= lbMSElist.ClientID %>');
Then the first time I try to hide it, nothing happens, then i click again and it
brings up a NEW EasyListBox control directly to the left of the one I am trying
to hide/show, with the same width, and as a dropdownlistbox instead of a
listbox.  Each subsequent click hides and shows that new magic phantom control. 
hehe.

I feel like I have the magic touch at breaking/testing this control! muahaha

John

I've tried putting it in several different ways, all don't work correctly.

1) ELB_ShowList('lbMSEall');
>>JavaScript Error - Object Required
2) ELB_ShowList('<%= lbMSEall.ClientID %>');
>>No Javascript error, however instead of hiding/showing the lbMSEall
EasyListBox, it creates a new control right to the left if it which appears as a
dropdownbox with no data that appears and dissappears
3) ELB_ShowList($get('<%= lbMSEall.ClientID %>'));
>>JavaScript Error - Object Required
4) ELB_ShowList(lbMSEall);
>>JavaScript Error - Object lbMSEall is Undefined

It looks like option 2 is what SHOULD work, but doesnt actually show or hide the
actual control, it just creates a brand new one next to it and shows and hides
that.

Peter,

    Yes 'lbMSEall' is the ID of the object.   I sent you an email with the code
in it.  Putting it here too:

Peter,

    Forgive me if I am beating a dead horse or should just beat my own head
against the wall.   I am trying to add ELB_HideList() or ELB_ShowList() to an
onclick event of a button, and it says its not a member of
ASP.ReportButton_aspx.   I tried to run it in an actual javascript block and it
couldn't run it there either.  In the javascript below it says "Object
Expected".   I even tried putting a line of script in like your demo <script
language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"
src="/ELBscriptIE56.js?v=3.5.1696"></script> but changed the js file to
ELBscriptAdvanced.js and that didnt work either.

<script type="text/javascript">
             function mseVisible(targetDiv) {
                 var tempDiv = document.getElementById(targetDiv);

                 if (tempDiv.style.visibility == 'hidden') {
                     tempDiv.style.visibility = 'visible';
                     if (targetDiv == 'mseWrapper') {
                         ELB_ShowList('lbMSEall');
                     }
                     }
                 } else {
                     tempDiv.style.visibility = 'hidden';
                     if (targetDiv == 'mseWrapper') {
                         ELB_HideList('lbMSEall');
                     }
                 }
                 return false;
             }
         </script>

Hello Guys,

I want to show the ShowColumnHeaders of the Multi Coulmns EasyList box. How can
I do this ?

I tried ShowColumnHeaders="true" and it is giving wired results.

Appreciate your help.
Regards,

Peter,

    Great thanks!  Yeah I already made smaller versions of the images I want.  
Didn't know about the show/hidelist functions, I'll try them out.

John

Peter,

    No there are no javascript errors on the page at all.  It just simply
displays with the same problems as it did in the previous problem under a normal
ASPX container. That fix didn't seem to work for Ajax containers.   Though if it
is visible in the beginning the formatting does work right, just that the rest
of the ajax page doesnt render if that is the case.  So either the Ajax page
breaks or the easylistbox breaks depending on if it's in the first displayed
accordion pane or in any other accordion pane.

Peter,

   Ok I found out there was a configuration path issue on my machine.  It does
display correctly, but there are still a few problems.   A standard listbox can
be made invisible by putting it inside of a DIV statement and setting the
style="visibility: hidden" command, and then toggled client-side using java
script.   EasyListBox does not turn invisible using this style.   If I use the
visibility=false then it isnt sent to the page at all and would require a
complete page reload to turn visible again.

The ActionButton object cannot be re-sized when an image is used.  At least not
inside of an ajax container.   If I use a 64x64 .png, and set the height/width
to 32, it still shows in 64x64.   Re-sizing does work with a standard
imagebutton in ASPX.

Peter,

    I'm again having more issues with ELB, inside of a container, if that
container is AJAX.   It will display correctly in the first accordion pane if it
is visible, but then the rest of the accordion panes break completely.  They
dont even show up.   Or if it is in the second pane, and not displayed on load,
all of the accordion panes show up, but then the ELB components (EasyListBox AND
ActionButton) have basically a width of the scrollbar and cannot be adjusted. 
So now its the same type of issue except for AJAX containers.

Peter,

   Great news! Can't wait, and thank you for looking into this so quickly.  Our
project placed an order for a licensed copy ;)

Peter,

    I've tried a few other controls with similar view types that hide the ELB on
initial render and it resulted in the same issue.  Found anything on your end
yet?

Hello,

I am having problems getting the DropListWidth property to work.

I am currently testing the 'EasyListBox 4.0 Trial (IE Enhanced)' version, using
IE8. I want the drop down to be as wide, or wider than the control itself.

Here is a screenshot of the problem:
http://www.missioncontrol.co.nz/WidthProblem.gif

Here is the code I have at the moment:


         <ELB:EasyListBox id="lstContact_Status_ID"
             runat="server"
             UseUniqueID="True"
             Height="300px"
             Width="200px"
             DropListWidth="500px"
             SelectionMode="multiple"
             DisplayMode="DropDown"
             ShowCheckBoxes="True"
             ClipHead="true"
             FloatSelections="true"
             ListBorderStyle="Solid"
             ButtonColor="#e0e0ef"
             ArrowColor="steelblue"
             Background="#f0f0f0"
             TextColor="steelblue"
             RollBGColor="steelblue"
             RollTextColor="#f9f9ff"
             >

           <ListItem value="MA">Massachusetts</ListItem>
           <ListItem value="NY">New York</ListItem>
           <ListItem value="TX">Texas</ListItem>
           <ListItem value="WY">Wyoming</ListItem>
         </ELB:EasyListBox>


I hope you can help.

Thanks,
Mike

Peter,

    I responded to another thread about the ELB not loading correctly if it is
not displayed on the page load.   This is the problem I'm having in this Ajax
control.  Since I read his post, I decided to move my ELB into the first of 5
accordionPanes (the first is displayed on page load) and the ELB showed up
without problems, even if i changed panes and back.  However in any other pane
it does not load.

John

Peter,

   I haven't, but even if that worked, I'd still be stuck with how ELB isnt
formatting itself properly.   Unless I tried re-formatting it on page load.

Peter,

    Understood.  Looks like we were able to find something!  It also looks like
if the ELB is in a place where it wont render on page load (say in the 2-5th
accordion tab) then the .vb code behind it has trouble finding the object as
well.   Not sure how your ELB is constructed, but want to provide you with any
info that may help.   That sample code I sent you should be a perfect way to
test it out.   Put it in the first pane and it works, another pane it doesnt.
