    Hi,

    as I found you need to define 3 arguments to make this work.

    1. define next_persid :

    ahdframeset.top_splash.next_persid = "<SOME_PERSID>";

    i'm using this while creating child objects, so persid were parents persistent id.

     

    2. update SET.id on form:

    var set_id = main_form.elements["SET.id"];

    set_id.value = "HTMPL=show_main_detail.htmpl&SET.id=" + "$args.id";

    set_id.name = "INPUT_FIELDS_TO_PARSE";

     

    To get more info, please refer to detailSave() function.

     

    Here is complete function that I'm using on my forms :

    function setAutoClose() {

        if (_dtl.edit) {

            var set_id = main_form.elements["SET.id"];

            set_id.value = "HTMPL=show_main_detail.htmpl&SET.id=" + "$args.id";

            set_id.name = "INPUT_FIELDS_TO_PARSE";

            ahdframeset.top_splash.next_persid = "z_mi_rep:" + argParentID;

        }

    }

    ...

    <BODY class="detailro" onunload="unloadActions();" onload="setAutoClose();">

    try to define next_persid as object itself:

    ahdframeset.top_splash.next_persid = "$args.persistent_id";

    if this didn't work, check browser's console and stdlog for errors...

    Nope, when you call custom webengine op, regular form edit didnt apply,

    use CALLBACK function instead. Examples could be found here: SPEL: Register custom webengine OP

    Hi cdtj,

     

    I put the code you've posted and it worked in my page. However, I wish that the parent frame (in my case, it's a list of records) could be refreshed when I hit the 'Save' button. So, the new record will immediately appear in the list after saving it. I think this could be reached by putting "refreshForm()" command somewhere, but I'm not sure. Can you think where I could put it?

     

    Thanks,

    Hi Diogo,

    if you're using popup, you can simply open it using this code:

    popupActivityWithURL(url, "status");

    how this works:

    if second argument matches some trigger words like alg or status, variable "_dtl.tabReloadOnSave" on child form become true. If you're using some other way to open child form you can try to define this attr on child form manually.

     

    It this willn't work, you can try to call refresh parent on form close:

    <body ......... onunload="zRefreshParent();">
    function zRefreshParent() {
    parent.opener.location.reload();
    }

    Regards,

    Hi cdtj,

     

    Thanks for your response. Currently, I'm using preparePopup() function to open a new window. I've tried using popupActivityWithURL() instead, but it didn't succeed.

     

    I've tried defining manually _dtl.tabReloadOnSave variable, however I get an error because '_dtl' object is not defined in parent.opener, for some reason I don't know yet.

     

    About parent.opener.location.reload() function, it works fine when I execute it in browser console. But it does not seem to be even executed when I put it as a unload actions.

     

    Any thoughts on this matter?

     

    Thanks,

     

    Diogo
