I have 2 DropDown components on a Page Fragment which work fine on FireFox but does not work on Internet Explorer 6 or 7. I put some breakpoints inside their value change listener methods and they are never hit if the request was made from Internet Explorer and the submittedValue of the dropdown is null. The odd thing is that the parameters are posted from the client since I checked with the HTTP monitor tool. I have the latest Visual Pack 070104_2 and the NetBeans 200610171010 and Java 1.5.0.10-b03 and Windows XP version 5.1 on x86 but it's the same for every platform. The application is also deployed on a tomcat installed on a Suse 10.1. We also have it on a Red Hat 4 machine also.
Is this with J2EE 1.4 or Java EE 5 project ?
I could not reproduce this on IE7+glassfish. Here were the steps I used: - new project. - add page fragment and double-click to edit it. - add two dropdowns, a button, and a message group to the fragment. - double-click dropdown1 and edit the value change method to do info("dropdown1 changed"). - double-click dropdown2 and edit the value change method to do info("dropdown2 changed"). - run project. - click the button. the message group says both dropdown1 and dropdown2 changed. this is correct, since the values were null and now they are item1. - change the value of dropdown1 and click the button. the message group says dropdown1 only changed. - change the value of dropdown2 and click the button. the message group says dropdown2 only changed. - click the button without changing the dropdown selections. the message group disappears, since neither dropdown value changed.
