Custom events doesn't work when orbeon is in portal

Mark.El wrote

Hi Mauno,

Are you sure your portlet is functioning at all?

You should make sure the sample portlet works... that way you can discount
environment set up.

One thing I found useful solving an issue today is to use Firebug plugin for
Firefox, that way you can see Javascript errors what is getting posted and
alot more information!

Regards

Mark

Which portal server are you using?

OK. This is intriguing. There is really nothing special going on the
client-side to handle custom events, so it shouldn't make a difference
that the application is running as a portlet. I am wondering if it is
not the initial <xxforms:script> that is supposed to run when the page
loads which in this case doesn't run (this is used in the
custom-events example). What if you dispatch the custom event on a
user's action (e.g. DOMActivate on a trigger)? Also, do you see any
JavaScript error on the client? Is the behavior the same on IE and
Firefox?

Sorry, I don't get that part. I thought that the problem *only*
occurred in Liferay. Did I misunderstand what you were saying?
