[Seaside] triggerFormElement: and checkboxes?

Hi,

Thank you. The provided patch does work. It fixes the example I posted
to you last week (The one with UpdaterTest1 and UpdaterTest2). When I
use it with check-boxes it works fine on the first go, but returns the
entire page contents in a second click of the checkbox, but this
probadly my own fault. I first tried this in a rather complex example,
and this is where I encountered the problem. I then tried to reproduce
this in a simpler example, but with no luck yet. So it is maybe just
something in my complex example that I am doing wrong, but I will look
at this a bit more and will let know as soon I figured this problem out.
(If I figure it out)

Kind regards,

Mart-Mari

Ok, try adding the following patch to SULibrary. I haven't tested it,
but it should work. Maybe you can confirm that?

SULibrary>>ySubmitButtonPatch
	^ 'Form.Element.Serializers.input = function(element) {
    switch (element.type.toLowerCase()) {
      case ''submit'':
        return false; /* ignore submit buttons */
      case ''hidden'':
      case ''password'':
      case ''text'':
        return Form.Element.Serializers.textarea(element);
      case ''checkbox'':
      case ''radio'':
        return Form.Element.Serializers.inputSelector(element);
    }
    return false;
  }'

> Thanks for all the help!

Thanks for your posts!

Cheers,
Lukas
