Thanks for the reply Filip. I have bound the zone parameter on the form like
this:
<form t:type="form" t:id="resort" t:zone="lor">
<t:label for="sortType"/>:
<select t:type="select" t:id="sortType" t:validate="required"/>
<br/>
<input type="submit" t:type="submit" t:id="resortButton"
value="Resort"/>
</form>
<t:actionLink t:zone="lor" t:context="literal:oldestFirst">oldest
first</t:actionLink>
The action link works in an Ajax way, but the form submit doesn't. The even
handlers are:
Object onSubmit() {
results.resort(sortType.name()); // sortType is the enum
bound to the select box.
return lor;
}
Object onAction(String st) {
results.resort(st);
return lor;
}
The form submit does the resort, but refreshes the entire page. I just can't
figure this out.
