Good morning,
I have an application where I use cflayout type="tab" and in the CFLAYOUTAREA, i use iframes. This allows me to refresh the iframe without having to refresh the entire application. The problem is that with CF9, using iframes as the source for the various tabs does NOT work properly. When I select a tab, I have to right-click and refresh within the body of the tab to get the data.
Before refreshing, if I right-click print-preview, the preview displays the entire tab content properly; yet the tab is completely blank until I refresh the content of the tab.
This application worked properly in CF8 but does not work in CF9.
I need to use iFrames or something similar to display the data because I need to scroll through multiple records on a specific tab.
Any help would be appreciated.
Here is a sample - from the CF9 documentation that I modified to illustrate the problem. If you save both of these files as named and run them, you'll see that the tabs do NOT display properly and there is no text on Tab-1. If you right click within the white-space on Tab-1 and refresh, you'll see the text
Then, comment out the <iframe > </iframe> tags and un-comment the standard text below the <iframe> tag... and refresh the screen and you'll see the tabs display as expected.
