** Toolbar not showing correct sometimes...need to refreshe

[nohacks]

Hi Guys,

I have a toolbar on my login page. I have noticed that sometimes it loads correct and other times not. I have to do a refresh and it then load correct.

Any help and how to fix this issue?

Thanks
Phil

 <rich:toolBar >
 <rich:dropDownMenu value="Home">
 <rich:menuItem submitMode="none" value="Welcome"
 onclick="document.location.href='welcome.jsf'"> </rich:menuItem>
 </rich:dropDownMenu>


 <rich:dropDownMenu value="Email">
 <rich:menuItem submitMode="none" value="Received" > </rich:menuItem>
 <rich:menuItem submitMode="none" value="Sent" > </rich:menuItem>
 </rich:dropDownMenu>

we need more info about 'sometimes'.. Which actions should be done in order to reproduce this? show your web.xml RF filter declaration.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Sometimes means it works now and then.

I can hit the page and it will work. Then do a remote login to another box I have and hit the same page and not work. Usually IE does not show the toolbar correct and firefox does load it correct about 60% of the time.

All other menus work great once the user logs into the app.


my web xml looks like this

 <context-param>
 <param-name>org.richfaces.LoadScriptStrategy</param-name>
 <param-value>DEFAULT</param-value>
 </context-param>

 <context-param>
 <param-name>org.richfaces.SKIN</param-name>

which App Server used?

[nohacks]

I am using

Apache LoadBalancer and Tomcat 6

It works fine when I refresh. Sort of a bummer when you first load the page and it is broken.

Have you ever seen that??

Thanks Phil

I was incorrect when I said sometimes.

I must have been using a cached version of my page.

When I clear out my cache the toobar always loads incorrect.

Thanks

I have a solution ...

I can make the login page display a jpg of the menu toolbar.

This could work but is sort of a pain when I change or update menus.

Anyone else have this issue?

Hello Phil,

Are there any problems in "Net" Firebug tab? Please check if any using either Firebug or MS Fiddler: http://www.fiddlertool.com/Fiddler2/version.asp

Ok, when I do this the problem just moves to the next page.

This happens all the time now. I was fooled before by caching in browser. When a new user or I clear the cache the toolbar does not load correct.

After the page loads incorrectly I do a refresh and it loads correct.
