Leaving portlet edit mode

Shaw, Richard A
Leaving portlet edit mode

Erik,

Can you tell us if it is possible to make the save button in edit mode change the portlet mode back to view once it has saved the preferences.

The only thing I can think of is to have a redirect page in the page-flow-edit.xpl which can be selected after the save. The redirect page will switch to the view mode in the same way that the button on the edit page does.

Richard,

I think the ideal solution would be to be able to use something like
<xforms:load f:portlet-mode="view" .../>, but this won't work at the
moment.

A workaround could be (I haven't tried this) to use a hidden anchor,
something like this:

<a style="display: hidden" id="go-back" href="/"
f:portlet-mode="view">Back</a>

And then use script to activate the anchor:

<xxforms:script>
    document.getElementById('wsrp_rewrite_go-back').click();
</xxforms:script>

Note that because with portlets, ids are prefixed, you may have to try
to get your "go-back" id rewritten in the JavaScript as well.

There may be issues with the above, but we won't know until you try
;-)
