First, I am duly impressed with this package! Second, I am having a problem with Ajax returning stale data. I have a page with a table listing several items....
Note that the OLgetAJAX function makes an OLclearAJAX call internally to clear any pending AJAX request before initiating a new one, so you don't need to...
... obvious, but be sure to include the semicolon after both of the HTML ... internally to clear any pending AJAX request before initiating a new one, so you...
The value for EnrollmentID is populated when the page loads, as it should be. That value is correct when passed to the Ajax call. The issue is that the data...
The value for EnrollmentID is filled by the server at the time the page is created. The issue is not that the wrong EnrollmentID is being used, rather that the...
None of this happens if I use another Ajax component (prototype). Use of prototype is fine for loading the popup content dynamically. See the ALTERNATIVE...
I tracked down this caching problem. It is specific to IE (does not occur in Firefox, Opera or Safari). A simple and clear explanation is in the Known...
IE behaves like the other browsers with respect to caching of content returned via AJAX, and as you apparently desire, if you use POST instead of GET requests,...
I've been playing with prototype version 1.5.1.1, which appears to be the latest full release. With IE it behaves the same way for GET requests as does...
Yasoo Fote, As you indicated this caching behavior for IE is by design. It has NOTHING to do with your OLgetAJAX method. Cache control in IE has always been...
George (Yorgi), Thanks for the feedback. It would be easy to add an "&d=<datetimestamp>" option for OLgetAJAX, but unless I'm overlooking something, using...
I agree! I do not see the benefit or the point in forcing a browser to pre-process cache based on an intentional unique "GET" request. To me the logical...
Thank you all for the input. It has helped greatly. I have tried using the OLpostAJAX call and it does just as you indicated it would. I now get "fresh" data...
Here's some more information about cache handling with AJAX that may be of interest. It's true that any Cache-Control headers presented via http or meta tags...
Hi, I would like to know which are the known compatability issues with the newest version of overlibmws. Which browsers are doing problems and which features...
Amir, The only platform-specific issue that I am aware of is discussed and illustrated in the: http://www.macridesweb.com/oltest/flashWmode.html support...
Hello, First off let me say that your library is simply amazing! And thank you very much! My problem is with the way the AJAX popup appears, and probably has ...
Brent, To show nothing but your own table markup that was loaded into OLresponseAJAX, make the overlib call: overlib(OLresponseAJAX, FULLHTML, . . .) with the...
Brent, Note that I'm assuming your tables set their widths via a width attribute or via CSS, so that the small, non-zero value of the WIDTH command's parameter...
Hi Fote, Thank you very much for responding so quickly. Your first post helped me. However I still have some smaller problems that I would like to fix. 1-The...
Brent, The: http://www.macridesweb/oltest/AJAX.html support document is tough reading for those not yet very familiar with javascript, but keep re-reading it...
Hi there I'm using the modal popup to display a 'confirm delete' message with 'ok' and 'cancel' buttons, and have just picked up the latest version to use the...
Hi again Another question about MODALSCROLL ... the dialogs I referred to in my last post have a strange rendering problem if I turn MODALSCROLL on. I have a...
Patrick, The MODAL popups involve a number of hairy workarounds for bizarre behavior across the supported browsers in their handling of overflow settings...
Patrick, There's an inappropriate backslash in the OLgetAJAX call you show, but I assume that's just a typo in your message to this group. You don't want to...
... Patrick, It just occurred to me that this problem might be due to your 'cancel' button using just: "cClick();" instead of: "return cClick();" or ...
Thank you, indeed that has solved the problem. Many thanks for spotting it! I have to admit I don't really understand what is happening when you use href="#"...
Thank you again - using the alerts as you suggest doesn't work too well for me as the HTML being returned is too long (it's being generated from a JSP which...
Patrick, The "#" as an href or action value resolves to an instruction to jump to an undefined anchor in the current document, and thus causes a jump to the...
