Problem with dialog and multiple data sources..

Hi all !

I'm using the Dialog control to display a panel (panelFeedback) containing a feedback form.

The panel (panelFeedback) has a data source (documentFeedback) with default action: Create document

Inside the panel there's a button which when cllicked does a documentFeedback.save()

This Dialog is on an Xpage which has another data source (documentUserStory).

The data source has default action: Open Document

When I click on the button to save documentFeedback data source, the documentUserStory data source is saved.

Fields which are bound to the documentFeedback data source is saved to the documentUserStory data source (the document I'm viewing in read mode)

Any ideas to how to get this working ? My goal here's to be able to open a document in read mode, show a dialog when a button is clicked and let the user input values into multiple fields in the dialog.

When the save button is clicked, and new document (with a different form than the one I'm viewing) should be created.

Any information / tips / links / examples / solution would be greatly appreciated !!

Best regards,

Petter Kjeilen

Re: Problem with dialog and multiple data sources..

What about using custom control instead panelFeedBack or try

<!— two data sources pointing to the same form —>

<xp:this.data>

<!— only requestParamPrefix and var properties differ —>

<xp:dominoDocument var=”document1” formName=”MainTopic”

computeWithForm=”both” action=”editDocument”

requestParamPrefix=”first”>

</xp:dominoDocument>

</xp:this.data>

<xp:this.data>

<xp:dominoDocument var=”document2” formName=”MainTopic”

computeWithForm=”both” action=”editDocument”

requestParamPrefix=”second”>

</xp:dominoDocument>

</xp:this.data>
