Question

Aside from this, I found that twiki.js is loaded second time whenever twisty is used. Is there a good reason to do this?

What version of contribs/plugins are you using?

Seriously, I thought I updated my plugins, but seems I only did it in my workplace. Sorry. Seems Twisty uses the new twiki javascripts now and does not load twiki.js .

But alas, the problem with Ajax persists even after update. It is enough to write

%TWISTY{}%
my twisty content
%ENDTWISTY%

<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/TWikiAjaxContrib/twikiAjaxRequest.compressed.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/BehaviourContrib/behaviour.compressed.js"></script>

   function initAutocompleteLoad () {

      twiki.AjaxRequest.load("AUTOCOMPLETEFORM_JS",
       {
        url:javascriptPageUrl,
        type:"script",
   cache:true
       })
   }

   var autocompleterules = {
   '#pagesautocomplete' : function(el) {
      el.onclick = function() {
         initAutocompleteLoad();
                   return false;
      }
   }
   };
Behaviour.register(autocompleterules);
// ]]>
</script>

The twisty javascript is downloaded after YUI javascripts. Is there a debugger I could use or something I could do to debug this?

-- MikkoLaakso - 01 Jul 2007

From your code I cannot see which twisty scripts are loaded, your code does not seem to have anything to do with the twisty?

But it is possible the old templates do not include all necessary files (I though they would). In LitterTray is a test with the new version (TWiki 4.2).

I use Firefox that has the Error Console - very useful to track down bugs.

-- ArthurClemens - 01 Jul 2007

Error console does display two warnings (about stylesheets) but no errors. The warnings are the same when I access a page with or without a twisty, the difference is still that it breaks TWikiAjaxContrib. Pretty weird...

How come everything works in TWiki 4.0.5, with twisty also? This is beyond me. What is there in the upgrade that could have broken Ajax, when combined with Twisty?

Lets see. In 4.0.5 I currently have Twisty plugin 1.2.0, $Rev: 11829$, Contrib version 25 Oct 2006 1.2, behavior 1.000 (1.1), TWikiAjaxContrib 15 Nov 2006 0.8.4. In my 4.1.2 development install I have same behavior and TWikiAjaxContrib + latest Twisty, although before I had the same Twisty plugin+contrib versions but problems did not change.

I have a test to reproduce this, see if you add the lines

%TWISTY{}%
my twisty content
%ENDTWISTY%

What happened in between 4.0.5 and 4.1.2 that broke the combination TWikiAjaxContrib + TwistyPlugin?

-- MikkoLaakso - 01 Jul 2007

Hmm, my YahooUserInterfaceContrib needs update, I will see if that fixes the problem.

-- MikkoLaakso - 01 Jul 2007

No, no difference. The fault is still elsewhere.

• Could it be a namespace clash?
• It is YUI connect.js that is called when downloading the pagelist in my case.

-- MikkoLaakso - 01 Jul 2007

It is still not clear what is not working. Do you have code that I can test?

BTW, there is now AutoCompleteAddOn and AutoCompletePlugin.

-- ArthurClemens - 01 Jul 2007

The skin update for TWiki 4.1.2 proto is near finished and you can get it from QuickMenuSkinDev (no installer available yet). You need to untar it and set ownership rights. I am working on an installer, update will follow shortly. I will also provide you the minimal code for the autocomplete feature here:

In your TEMPLATESCRIPT, put the following:

<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/TWikiAjaxContrib/twikiAjaxRequest.compressed.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/BehaviourContrib/behaviour.compressed.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/TWikiJavascripts/twikiHTML.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/YahooUserInterfaceContrib/build/yahoo/yahoo.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/YahooUserInterfaceContrib/build/connection/connection.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/YahooUserInterfaceContrib/build/autocomplete/autocomplete.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/YahooUserInterfaceContrib/build/event/event.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="%PUBURL%/%TWIKIWEB%/YahooUserInterfaceContrib/build/dom/dom.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
var javascriptPageUrl = "%SCRIPTURL{"view"}%/%TWIKIWEB%/TopicListForJS?skin=text" + ";section=javascript" + ";web=%WEB%";
            
function initAutocompleteLoad () {

      twiki.AjaxRequest.load("AUTOCOMPLETEFORM_JS",
       {
        url:javascriptPageUrl,
        type:"script",
   cache:true
       })
}

var autocompleterules = {
   '#pagesautocomplete' : function(el) {
      el.onclick = function() {
         initAutocompleteLoad();
                   return false;
      }
   }
};
Behaviour.register(autocompleterules);
// ]]>
</script>

In TWiki web, create a page named TopicListForJS:

%STARTSECTION{"javascript"}%
<noautolink> 
var pagesArray = [ %TOPICLIST{"\"$name\"" separator=", " web="%URLPARAM{"web"}%"}% ];   oAutoCompleteDS = new YAHOO.widget.DS_JSArray(pagesArray);   pageAutoComp = new YAHOO.widget.AutoComplete('pagesinput', 'pagescontainer', oAutoCompleteDS);   pageAutoComp.queryDelay = 0;   pageAutoComp.prehighlightClassName = "yui-ac-prehighlight";   pageAutoComp.typeAhead = false;      
</noautolink>
%ENDSECTION{"javascript"}%

Somewhere in your topic (e.g. view template) put the following HTML:

         <form action="%SCRIPTURLPATH{"view"}%/%BASEWEB%/%BASETOPIC%">
            <div id="pagesautocomplete" autocomplete="off">
            <input id="pagesinput" type="text" name="topic" value="%MAKETEXT{"Jump"}%" class="twikiInputBox twikiInputBoxDefault" onfocus="clearDefaultandCSS(this)" onblur="setDefaultandCSS(this)" autocomplete="off"></input>
               <div id="pagescontainer">
               </div>
            </div>
         </form>

When you click on the form box, it will download the pagelist unless there is a twisty on the same page. Btw, I am using the TWikiAjaxContrib pre-release javascripts (the ones included above).

-- MikkoLaakso - 06 Jul 2007

I believe I have fixed this in the latest BehaviourContrib (1.2.1): Bugs:Item4329.

Again, please review AutoCompleteAddOn and AutoCompletePlugin. Try to further minimize duplications.

This seems to be answered...
