Hi Chuck,

I tried to model it pretty closely but the problem for me is the following.

In your component you write the tabs in a loop in AjaxTabbedPanel's appendToResponse phase. After the loop you call the function

content.appendToResponse(response, context); // content is assigned to the third parameter WOElement template in the component's constructor.

The child element's are then conditionally displayed - depending on which tab was designated to be open on start.

I need to be able to call the child element's appendToResponse inside the tab loop (for formatting reasons). Is that not possible?

Not without also making some modifications to the other two phases (takeValues and invokeAction). You might want to look at ERXTabPanel.

I've created a component that is modeled after the components AjaxTabbedPanel and AjaxTabbedPanelTab found in Wonder's Ajax Framework.

How closely? That was rather tricky to write, much deviation won't work.



Unlike AjaxTabbedPanel - the different tabs are all loaded at the same time i.e. no ajax. Everything works fine except when I embed a Form inside one of the tabs.

Have you tried links and such? I will guess that they do not work either.



For some reason the bindings gets out of sync because when the form is submitted it doesn't call the function it is wired to?

You are manually calling tab.appendChildrenToResponse. Are you doing something similar during takeValues and invokeAction? If you don't also handle those specially, this is not going to work.



I think the problem is when I'm looping through the child tabs and appending their content i.e.

for(MoAccordionTab tab : tabs) {
response.appendContentString("\n\t\t<div");
appendTagAttributeToResponse(response, "class", togglerClass);
response.appendContentString(">");
response .appendContentString ((String)tab.title().valueInComponent(component));
response.appendContentString("</div>");
response.appendContentString("\n\t\t<div class=\"" + elementClass + "\">");
tab.appendChildrenToResponse(response, context); // NOT THE RIGHT WAY?
response.appendContentString("\n\t\t</div>");
}


Any ideas?


I suspect it might be more complex than what your implementation handles.
