This may already be known, so disregard if so,..

I'm still testing to verify. So far I find this with input type objects (Input, Combo Boxes etc..) if you have two pages with same name and type objects, those objects can appear and be functional on another page containing same name and type objects.

i.e..

Page 1 contains "M_ComboBx"
Page 2 contains "M_ComboBx"

If Page 1 is loaded and you go to Page 2, Page 1 object "M_ComboBx" will also appear and be fully functional on Page 2. It will also and still make changes (if set to do so) on page 1 while you're viewing page 2.

I couldn't figure out why I was getting page 1 objects on other pages.
Since I copy & pasted a lot of content from page 1 to page 2 they had same names.

I have no idea what sparked the idea but I went into page 1 and renamed the object from M_Combobx to M1_ComboBx, and the problem went away.

I could be wrong about it beinf fixed but so far in 20 test it seemed to have fixed it.

Just FYI ;-)

You cannot have 2 pages with the same name. It won't allow it.

If you mean 2 pages with different names but with comboboxes named the same then I tried that and it works fine. Page1's combobox does not show on Page2.

Try my little test that is attached. Maybe post an example apz so othere can try it.

Definitely try out Dermot's example, but I also just wanted to make sure you were using the latest service release of the product, 6.0.4.0 to ensure any issues you are experiencing aren't related to past problems.

The pages don't have the same name, the objects do/did, via pasteing from one page to another.

What I should do is post a pic showing it, because it only happens 30% of the time.

I'm using version 6.0.3.0, I guess I need to update. Was anything like this attacked in the 6.0.4.0 update?

I thought it was a naming issue, but 2-3 days later it's doing it again. <shrug>
Very intermittent though.

Yes, I actually do think that the problem you are experiencing was resolved in the latest service release. I can't say for certain, however the following is one of the fixes done in 6.0.4.0 from the Readme file:


Fix: Fixed a bug where in certain rare circumstances objects from previous pages would be left on the screen when jumping from page to page. This would happen with the MediaPlayer plugin object in particular.

Thanks Darryl,

I'll update when I get this project off the bench. EVerytime you guys update it's usually good changes that provoke me in re-writing the current project and going over board. tehehehe

As long as I know what it is, I won't worry. I'm more worried about what cool stuff comes in the update,.."oh boy new toys!!!"

Thanks
