Cfdiv refreshes binding to radio buttons

Question

Hi,
Fairly simple issue that I can't find much information about
through google (just one report of it involving a workaround for a
cfgrid rather than a cfdiv).
I have a cfdiv that is bound to a cfselect and two radio
buttons, ala:
<cfdiv
bind="url:schedule-snippet.cfm?selectAll={selectAll}&orderBy={orderBy}&startDate={startDa te}"
id="schedule">
selectAll and orderBy are both radio buttons, each of which
has two states. startDate is a cfselect.
The problem is that the cfdiv does not auto-refresh based on
whichever radio button I pass in second -- e.g. in the example
above, it will refresh based on the selectAll radio button but not
the orderBy radio button. If I bind it this way:
<cfdiv
bind="url:schedule-snippet.cfm?orderBy={orderBy}&selectAll={selectAll}&startDate={startDa te}"
id="schedule">
Then it will refresh from the orderBy but not the selectAll.
Even more interesting is that, if I put the cfselect
(startDate) AFTER the second radio button in the bind list (as
above) then it won't refresh from that, either. It just sort of
'stops' auto-refreshing once you put in a radio button value. with
anything after that value in the list.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Sam

Answer 1

this is strange and must be a bug... i have reproduced your
situation
exactly.
i have ran all sorts of tests, and always the second radio
set does not
trigger cfdiv refresh.
setting the first bind param in your cfdiv to your cfselect
will make
the div refresh on change in the cfselect and the first
binded radio
group, but not the second one.
same with checkboxes instead of radio buttons - the second
binded set of
checkboxes never triggers the cfdiv refresh.
having cfdiv bind to 3 selects instead of 1 select and 2
radio/checkbox
groups works fine - cfdiv refreshes on change in any of the
selects.
furthermore, adding another cfselect and binding cfdiv to
that as well
(so 4 controls cfdiv is binded to now) starts throwing js
errors in
ajax.js file... but also makes everything work after you
ignore the
error (cfdiv refreshes on change in any of the 4 controls).
definitely a bug - you may want to submit it to adobe.
one work-around may be to cal a js function from the second
radio
group's onclick event which will get surrent values of the 3
controls
and use ColdFusion.navigate to refresh the cfdiv...
