submitForm on master page: objects vanish

Avatar

Level 4

I have the identical code (see below) in the click-event of two buttons: one on the master page, the other on the text page.

The code on the text page works fine.

The code on the master page produces a "Form1 is undefined" error. The cause for the trouble is clearly the submitForm() - without it the presence change works perfectly.

It appears that the submitForm() triggered from master page events destroys the internal object structure - the whole form is not found any more by the code.

Do you have any idea how to prevent this?

Has anyone else observed this problem?

I have an example form at hand if anyone is interested.

------

Form1.myPage.mySubform.presence = "hidden";

sAddress = "baehr@paperless-process.de";

sSubject = "Test eMail";

sBody    = "Please see my empty PDF!";

sType    = "PDF";

sendPDF(sAddress, sSubject, sBody, sType);

Form1.myPage.mySubform.presence = "visible";

        currentDoc = event.target;

    else

        currentDoc = this;

       

    var sURL = "mailto:" + sAddress + "?subject=" + sSubject + "&body=" + sBody;

    currentDoc.submitForm({

        cURL:sURL,

        cSubmitAs:sType,

        cCharset:"utf-8"

    });

} // sendPDF()
