Re: Show single category by using iframe

1.Your Details.xsp need not be an xpage. It has to be a Custom control(CC) with property definition to capture
dropdown value. (The CC should have view container control with category filter or keys value pointed to compositeData.property), whatever you define in property definition ,you should be able to access it through compositeData
2.Drop this Details Custom control to the cell B.
3.Select the Custom Control in xpage and pass the value(Dropdown value(get it from scope variable)) to the CC property.
4.When you select the value from the cities drop down, store the selected value into a scope variable and
partially refresh the cell B.

Re: Show single category by using iframe

Thanx for your prompt response, But I dont want to change the scenario. My landing page is devided in three parts. One is left navigation, second is Top header, and third is body part. I have to put the cities combo on top header and based on selected values body part should update. Body part is a iframe binding the xpage which has the embedded view.

further response will appreciate me.

With Regards

Zubair

If you can change the Details.xsp to a custom control, then you can use

"getComponent(customcontrolName).getPropertyMap();"

You can get the properties of the Details Custom Control and set those properties with the drop down value.

I am not sure about other ways...

If the iframe has a name property, e.g. detailsFrame..

onChange, client side script in the combobox:
window.frames.detailsFrame.location.search = 'city=' + thisEvent.target.value;

In Details.xsp:
Set categoryFilter="#{param.city}" in source mode, or param.city in el syntax with editor.
