I've been reading the forums regarding refreshing portions of the page. I've tried the iframe method with no avail.
My application is a simple inventory tracker, and I'm currently working on the inventory checkin workflow.
I have a page that has an inventory checkin form at the top of the page, and a list view of the recently created records at the bottom. I'm not using the native form submit, as there will be instances where I want to scan in one UPC and then attach several serial numbers to it in rapid succession, so I'm creating the record when the Serial Number field looses focus (tab out of the field), then resetting the serial number field.
The problem I'm having is that although I can add multiple records this way, I can't get the list view to refresh after I've created a record. Even loading the view in an iframe doesn't seem to work, the best I can manage is getting the list view to open in a new window, or replacing the content of the parent window.
Is there some way to force the same refresh behavior as if I were to just delete a record from the list view on the page? The form stays the same, just the inventory list refreshes.
Ultimately then you could rapidly scan in multiple serials and have the human spot check the recent adds as they appear in the list. Is there a simple way that I could pass values into the form field on
page refresh? (I.e. my form submits the old fashioned way, but when it reloads after submit, it has some fields already filled in (UPC, part number)
Looking for any suggestions/advice, Thanks!
