rendering in a grid does not work in IE7

[reecegwt]

hi,


Label when returned from a cell renderer is not visible in IE7.

label renderer:

public
Object render(ProductTypeModel model,
String property,
ColumnData config,
int rowIndex,
int colIndex,
ListStore<ProductTypeModel> store,
Grid<ProductTypeModel> grid)
{


LabelField descriptLabelField =
new LabelField();
descriptLabelField.setText(model.<String>get(property));
ToolTipConfig tooltipConfig = new ToolTipConfig("Click to view " +
"full details, or drag to your product list on the right");

ToolTip tooltip = new ToolTip(descriptLabelField, tooltipConfig);
tooltip.setId("openPopupTip");
tooltip.setFrame(false);
tooltip.setAutoHeight(false);
tooltip.setHeight(35);
tooltip.setWidth(340);

return descriptionLabelField;

}

if a string is returned it works properly,but i need label to set the tooltip.

Also,similarly when a custom widget extending Composite is returned from a cell rendere is not visible in IE7.

It works fine in chrome and firefox.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks
reece

There were a couple of issues with this in GXT 2.0.1.

However, the first issue i see in your code is that oyu give the same id to all tooltip. IDs needs to be unique.

What is the status of this thread? I have the same problem with cell renderers in IE.

Thanks,

what version are you using, 2.0.1?
Probably you should give us some code, demonstrating your problem.

gxt-2.1.1, gwt-user-2.0.3

import com.google.gwt.user.client.ui.Anchor;

        // Renders the Username column (turns the name into a clickable anchor which will invoke the edit user dialog)
        GridCellRenderer<ModelData> userNameRenderer = new GridCellRenderer<ModelData>() {
            public Object render(ModelData model, String property,  ColumnData config, int rowIndex, int colIndex,  ListStore<ModelData> store, Grid<ModelData> grid) {
                // associate the Anchor with the model object so we don't have to create a 
                // new one each time the cell is rendered  
                Anchor anchor = model.get(USER_NAME_ANCHOR_WIDGET);
                if (anchor == null) {
                    String val = model.get(property);
                    anchor = new Anchor(val);
                    model.set(USER_NAME_ANCHOR_WIDGET, anchor);
                    anchor.setHref("javascript:;"); // override the default link behavior
                    anchor.addClickHandler(new EditUserHandler(store.getRecord(model)));
                }
                return anchor;
            }
        };

In IE I've found, while debugging, this problematic area of code in GridView.class:

  protected void renderWidgets(int startRow, int endRow) {
    if (grid.isViewReady()) {
      if (endRow == -1) {
        endRow = ds.getCount() - 1;
      }
      for (int i = startRow; i <= endRow; i++) {
        List<Widget> m = i < widgetList.size() ? widgetList.get(i) : null;
        if (m != null) {
          for (int j = 0; j < grid.getColumnModel().getColumnCount(); j++) {
            Widget w = j < m.size() ? m.get(j) : null;
            if (w != null) {
              Element cell = getWidgetCell(i, j);
              if (cell != null) {
                if (w.getElement().getParentElement() == null || w.getElement().getParentElement() != cell) {
                  fly(cell).removeChildren();
                  cell.appendChild(w.getElement());
                }
                if (grid.isAttached()) {
                  ComponentHelper.doAttach(w);
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }

After clicking sort, events are fired until this code is reached, where w.getElement() is my anchor widget but the innerHTML has been wiped out.

Can you try this against 2.2 RC1? If that is not working too, than we will need a fully working testcase that implements EntryPoint

Hi Sven,

Tried this against the latest GXT and the problem is not fixed.

Problem is still in the same place that I posted where getElement innerHTML is empty.

GXT 2.2.0

GWT 2.0.4

Than please post a fully working testcase that implements EntryPoint and shows your problem. I never saw this problem and nobody else reported it befor.
