[Seaside] How to re-render a component including its callbacks

[Johan Brichau]

Hi Frank,

It is useful that you let us know how you are replacing the list items in the onChange action of the radio button. 

My guess is that you are rerendering the individual items of the list but not the list itself (including the callback)?
For the callback to work correctly, you must also rerender the callback itself, hence the entire list.

This is the way the callbacks for entire list must work. There is also the option of associating a callback with each item in the list, which would mean that you can replace individual items of a list:

html select
	dispatchCallbacks;
	with: [
		html option
			callback: [ self firstClicked ];
			with: 'first'.
		html option
			callback: [ self secondClicked ];
			with: 'second'].
