Re: body onload event - timing problem?

Hi,

I have a question related to the onload event. In the absence of Atlas this event is fired everytime the page refreshes. I have code in the onload event that needs to execute everytime there is even a small change to the client. When using onload with Atlas, I find that it fires the first time the page loads, but not everytime the page refreshes. Which other event can I use to execute code everytime there is even a small change to the page?

Thanks.

Nor is it working for me in FireFox after doing all the things suggested by Bertrand. This is what i am doing

<atlas:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server" EnableScriptComponents="true">

<atlas:ServiceReference Path="TestService.asmx" GenerateProxy="true" />

</Services>

<atlas:ScriptReference ScriptName="AtlasUIGlitz" />

<atlas:ScriptReference Path="example2.js" />

<atlas:ScriptReference Path="example1.js" />

</Scripts>

</atlas:ScriptManager>

</form>

script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">

function

myPageLoad()

{

alert (

"Page Load") ;

}

</script>

<page xmlns:script=

"http://schemas.microsoft.com/xml-script/2005">

</references>

<application load=

"myPageLoad()"/>

</components>

</page>

</script>

That doesnt fix it either.
Tryed everything and nothing. It only gets called first time and not when i for example click some menu items. The content changes but load event is never called.

I think ont think my colegue an i needs is a way to get sort of call back event (listener or something) that lets us knw that Atlas has finished loading/displaying information. Like using OnComplete event of the web service call.

I dont like the ideea of using web services for this...

There has to be an way to add event listeners to a general oncomplete/onload event of Atlas framework.

Well, of course. EnableScriptComponents="true" will get it working...

here is an example of this not working.

i can send the whole project if you like.

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">

<atlas:ScriptManager ID="scriptManager" runat="server" EnableScriptComponents="false">

<atlas:ServiceReference Path="WebService.asmx" />

</Services>

</atlas:ScriptManager>

var foo = 0;

function poll()

{

MemLeakTest.BasicTest.Incr(foo, on_complete);

}

function on_complete(result)

{

foo = result;

document.getElementById("spot").innerHTML = "poll: " + foo;

setTimeout("poll()", 10);

}

function startup()

{

setTimeout("poll()", 1000);

}

</script>

</head>

<body>

</components>

</page>

</script>

</div>

</form>

</body>

</html>

Does anything else work?

kevbo — Sat, 14 Jan 2006 00:54:26 GMT

strangely enough, this doesn't seem to work for me

i cut and paste the example directly into the body element of an existing atlas web page, and it doesn't seem to work.

is there something special i need to declare in the scriptmanager section?

There already is an example in one of the previous post, but here you go:

I found my problem. I was overwriting Atlas's Event object with my own. It wasn't an issue until I started using Atlas, of course.

My problem might be related to the fact that I have two frames that have the same Atlas web reference. The problem was that in Debug/AtlasRuntime.js on lines 971, 981 and 988, baseName was not defined. It was defined on one frame and not the other. Specifically, I have two columns and it was defined in the first frame but not the second. I looked in AtlasCompat.js and replaced baseName with localName and that made it work fine. Hope this helps for the next CTP.

I found out why it wasn't working on IE. It now works and I'm still trying to find out why it's not working in Firefox.

I take the last post back. I'm having a lot of trouble getting the web service proxy to work even in IE.

My code looks like this:
// pageLoad is the Atlas load event
function pageLoad()
{
alert(SimpleWS);
}

Putting my webservice call in a function called pageLoad instead of one that's called by the body's onLoad event seems to work in IE but not in Firefox 1.07. I just upgraded Firefox to version 1.5 and it still gives the same error.
