Actionsupport cascading multiple fields
I have two select lists (Product, Version) and an output listing (files) which should work together so the user can select different products, versions and get the file downloads. Some code:
<apex:pageBlock title="Select product and version for download" id="sel"> <apex:form > <apex:outputLabel value="Product: " for="productsel"/> <apex:selectList size="1" value="{!selProd}" id="productsel"> <apex:selectOptions value="{!products}"/> <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" rerender="availableversions"/> </apex:selectList> <apex:outputLabel value="Version: " for="availableversions"/> <apex:selectList value="{!selVersion}" size="1" id="availableversions"> <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" rerender="listing"/> <apex:selectOptions value="{!curVersions}"/> </apex:selectList> </apex:form> </apex:pageBlock> <apex:pageBlock title="Files" id="listing"> <!-- LISTING CODE --> </apex:pageBlock>
Problem with this code, is that when I select product, the version listing is updated but the files listing is not - but I thought I knew how to fix that - I changed the first actionsupport to:
<apex:actionSupport event="onchange" rerender="availableversions,listing"/>
You should think that would work, wouldn't you? But no - the listing is obviously rendered before the version change can write the correct version so I can get the correct listing.
I have tried several things - including setting up getter/setter methods that tries to counter this behavior - but even if I pick the correct version in the product setter method, it seems that this is being overridden by the wrong version again somehow.
Does anyone have any suggestion to what I might try - or maybe even a working example?
