Refresh Web Client

Classic Servoy

I was wonderign how a refresh of a web client should work.

I have a filter created on the onShow and all is good, it does what it is supposed to.

However if I clear the global variable globals.glbl_url and then have a button for the user to refresh which simply calls the onShow method the data in the tableview is not refreshed. If I click on another tab panel and then return to the same page the data then refreshes. The onShow method is called in both scenarios however the data only refeshes after I leave the form and return.

Any suggestions how I can use a refresh button on the form without having to leave and return to make a refresh work ?

Thanks.

function onShow(firstShow, event) {
	
	databaseManager.removeTableFilterParam(globals.glbl_database,'scrapeList')
	databaseManager.removeTableFilterParam(globals.glbl_database,'scrapeListUrl')
	controller.loadAllRecords()
	
	var success = databaseManager.addTableFilterParam(globals.glbl_database,'scrapeValues','userid','=',globals.glbl_uname,'scrapeList');
	controller.loadAllRecords()
	
	if (globals.glbl_url != "" && globals.glbl_url != null)
	{
		success = databaseManager.addTableFilterParam(globals.glbl_database,'scrapeValues','url','=',globals.glbl_url,'scrapeListUrl');
		controller.loadAllRecords()
	}	
}

ffow,

Table filters are very global for your client, they affect all views on that table, you should not use that in your onshow method.
I guess what you need is a relation from your global to your table and show your tableview with that relation.

When the global changes the tableview is updated automatically, Servoy hanles the refresh.
