How to submit Xpage via client side javascript

Hello,

I am running some ajax calls in the client javascript. The page was being submitted prior to ajax calls being completed.

I placed a return false in code to prevent this. But now I cannot see how to submit the page so the server side code can run.

I tried a return true but it did not work.

Any ideas?

Kev

Hi,

in my opinion it is a better idea to prevent users to click the submit button until AJAX refreshes have been completed.

To do this, you can use the OnStart- and OnComplete-events of the AJAX refreshes to show / hide a <div>-layer which prevents the user to click the buttons (a loading overlay).
