JavaScript Prob: ND 6 Client & R5 Server

HCL Domino Domino Forum
1

First a little background: I’m using an ND6 client and our servers are still R5.

If I go in and change some JavaScript code in my ND6 client, save changes, and refresh the browser; the changes are NOT reflected on the WEB. If I go into an R5 client and make the changes, it works fine (changes appear on the web).

Anyone have a clue what is wrong here? Is this problem simply due to the fact that we’re using an R5 client on the server and I’m attempting to make the changes on an ND6 client?

Is there a workaround until we update our servers to ND 6 and I should make my changes in an R5 client environment until the servers are updated?

Thanks,

Tim

Where do you actually write your JavaScript code?

For Web applications in R5 I strongly encourage you to place all of your code in functions that reside either on a page that’s been declared as HTML or in file attachments to pages. Just place the calls to these functions in the approriate events.

Furthermore R6 distiguishes between JS vor Web and for Notes clients. Where do you put your code when editing in R6? In “Run Web” or in “Run Client”?

Thanks for the help. First off, we had a consultant come in to program this and I’m not very strong in JavaScript.

The code in question is in a function that is located on a “Page” in the “JS Header”.

I see now it’s in “Run Client”? It must have defaulted that way. That’s probably the problem? I’ll test.

I just switched to “Run Web”. That was it! Changes our now reflected!

Thanks Again!
