#231 Event error

[Daniel Tiru]

Hi!

I have a HTML button and a onclick event assigned to
that one.

parent.hb = new parent.HTMLButton
('submit','Login','Login');
parent.hb.addEventListener({
onclick:function(e){
var o=e.getSource();
parent.PostData
('frmLogin','response.asp');
}
});

When i click on the button one time, it works fine,
however when i click another time, it returns:
Error: Can't execute code from a freed script
Line: 77 in event.js
The line in event js looks like this:
if (this._listeners[i]["on"+type]) this._listeners[i]
["on"+type](e,args);
And my debugger marks this part:
this._listeners[i]["on"+type](e,args)

The script it calls works fine, i have tried it several times
without a HTMLButton, with just an ordinary button.

Hope this info helps out in solving this.
Regards
Daniel

This has to do with your code:

onclick:function(e){
var o=e.getSource();
parent.PostData ('frmLogin','response.asp');

This section of the code was created inside the ioelement's
Iframe object. Whenever you send another post it will clear
the content of the IFrame thus giving the error. The
downloaded js code was not created within the scope of the
main document but within the scope of the iframe object

I've seen it before and I'm thinking of a way to resolve it.

how about using the browser's namespace?
I.E. top. instead of parent. could be the parent is being
reinitialized on reload which is loosing all yer code.

top.whatever="blagme" places a vaiable in the top-level
window which swill not be erase when reloading the iframe
inside that window

Not sure I understand this. Because of all the references
to parent, I guess we're in a child object? The HTMLButton
is in the parent, and when the parent is submitted, then all
the code in the children is wiped out? It'd help me to see
a concrete example. I can probably discover the problem if
I try, and if I get a server setup to run IOElement's server
side. But since I don't have ASP, only PHP and Perl, then I
have to get those versions working first. :p Resolution,
is it an API or end-developer error? Or is this a valid
condition people would expect to work? If so, perhaps the
other namespace is an option, or at least a callback
function to reinsert the above code into each new child
namespace, if it really must be there. :-)
