Reload View on method call

[wachtda.scsi.gmx.ch]

Hello Together

I have a view of Objects, which I can edit via a link that opens a popup window.

Is it possible to reload the view of objects if I for example add some notes via an method call of the popup window?

Or is the only way to work with a a4j:poll component?

Regards Daniel

Rather than polling on the page that opens the pop-up, I've added a a4j:jsFunction to the main page and then called it from the pop-up via plain-old javascript.

For example,

<script>
function notifyParent(){
  window.opener.yourJSFucntion();
}
</script>

Assign an oncomplete method to the jsFunction which actually closes your pop-up. This will ensure 1) yourJSFunction gets called and 2) the data on the opening page is updated before your pop-up closes.

Hello James

Thank you for your hint.

Is it possible to trigger the edit function for completing before call the javascript. Sometimes I have the problem, that the update in the db isn't already inserted if the javascript for reload is called.

I can add a timeout, but I think there must be a better way!
Or can I call a refresh from the backin bean?

Greetings

ps: I make the refresh via

window.opener.location.reload();

so i don't need a a4j:jsfunction on the main screen
