Hi,

I'm facing the same problem in IE7. The radio button does not get selected for 'Include Company Footer' in 'Create Content' for 'Press Release Form' in the 'alfrescosample' Web Project.
Can anyone please suggest a solution.

Thanks,
Rohit

Hi, I'm not sure if the solution has came out already in other topic but below fixed the problem. I've installed 3.0b and I had a same problem with 'alfrescosample' Web Project.

Event object recieves target properties, but Alfresco code does not support IE. Below code will provide IE support and will fix the radio button problem.

Find your "xforms.js" which should be located under "{ALFRESCO_HOME}\tomcat\webapp\alfresco\scripts\ajax\" and replace _radio_clickHandler function with code below.

[size=85] _radio_clickHandler: function(event)
{
    var target;
    if (window.ie) {
      target = window.event.srcElement;
    } else {
      target = event.target;
    }
    if (!target.checked)
    {
      var all_radios = this.widget.getElementsByTagName("input");
      for (var i = 0; i < all_radios.length; i++)
      {
        if (all_radios.name == target.name)
        {
          all_radios.checked = target == all_radios;
        }
      }
    }
    this._selectedValue = target.value;
    this._commitValueChange();
}[/size]

Hope it works on yours as well :mrgreen:

Hi,
I am having similar issues as reported by the previous writer: in firefox I can't add a repeating item in a form. Is there anything I can do on my side to solve this? I am using alfresco 3.0b.

Help on this is really appreciated!

hi all,

_combobox_changeHandler: function(event)
{
       var target;
if (window.ie) {
target = window.event.srcElement;
} else {
target = event.target;
}
//alert("here"+target);
    this._selectedValue = target.options[target.selectedIndex].value;
//   this._selectedValue =
event.target.options[event.target.selectedIndex].value;
    this._commitValueChange();
}
});

replace the code in xform.js and will resolve the problem for combo selection problem with enumeration

A fix I have found for repeating items in FF3 where the plus and minus signs do nothing until the page is reloaded is to edit alfresco/scripts/ajax/xforms.js

Change the line

 alfresco.AjaxHelper.sendRequest("XFormsBean.fireAction",
                                    { id: id },
                                    $pick(asynchronous, false),
                                    this._handleEventLog.bindAsEventListener(this));‍‍‍‍


 alfresco.AjaxHelper.sendRequest("XFormsBean.fireAction",
                                    { id: id },
                                    $pick(asynchronous, true),
                                    this._handleEventLog.bindAsEventListener(this));‍‍‍‍‍

this way the event handler gets called and page updates.
