How to solve IE and Firefox problem

1 New Member
How to solve IE and Firefox problem? can anybody help me.

IE
When reloading a page in IE no form items are re-populated.
When going back IE repopulates all form items but resets JavaScript variables and loses the state of DIVs – meaning that any UI changes and any JavaScript state changes used to detect changes made by the user are lost when going back to a previous page.

FireFox
When reloading a page Firefox will re-populate some form items. This is a problem if we use JavaScript to detect changes since the JavaScript will not trigger.
When going back Firefox will re-populate some form items but maintains JavaScript variable state and DIV state – this means that we can use JavaScript to detect changes which will remain consistent after going back, although some form items may have been reset.

hi ...

welcome to TSDN ...

now it depends on your requirements ... to have a consistent state each time you have to control it for your own. you may create a init-function that populates the page with defaults on load of the page ... in case you want some values persistent during a session ... you may use cookies and populate the values on load from that values ...

kind regards

The doPostBack javascript functioning is not submitting the page when called by linkbuttons (or an autopostback checkbox, for that matter). I'm aware of a problem with Netscape browsers and the postback code, but I have a workaround for that installed (and it looks like the code generated by ASP.NET when it renders the page does the same thing, namely, setting document<). However, the problem still exists under firefox. Has anyone come...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.

The idea...
