15.2 editors completely divorce NAME from ID attribute

Hello,

I am trying to migrate from 15.1 to 15.2 and am noticing a complete show-stopper when it comes to the editors. When I have a text field defined in my JSP (I'm using struts) as this :

<s:textfield name="userId" id="txtUserId" cssStyle="width:93%;"/>

In 15.1 it would get 'translated' by struts and then Infragistics into this :

And everything was fine with passing data to and from this field to the server. However, in 15.2 it completely changed and now igTextEditor creates this :

</div>

The problem is that the NAME attribute and the ID attribute are on different fields! Now the place the user types is completely separate from the field that the server will get data from. I thought using the 'inputName' method to set the name attribute would help, but it doesn't change anything - the 'name' is still attached to the hidden input field that has nothing to do with the actual text input field on the screen.

So how do I fix this?

Hi CJ,

Since 15.2 the value is synced always to the hidden input once it gets changed and the value sent to the server is always the hidden input. Can you give us a little bit details on your use case and what is not working, so we can assist you correctly.

Thanks,

Hello,

Thank you for your reply. I was able to figure out my issue - I was setting my initial values using native jQuery :

$('#txtUserId').val(userId);

which worked fine when there was only 1 underlying input field. Now that your controls have more than 1 input field it wasn't working. So I need to change all my code that is using native jQuery to set the value to use the Infragistics igTextEditor('option', value) method.

However once passed this issue, I found that the formatting/display of controls and grids has some serious issues. Entry fields now look like this :

I don't know if that will display correctly but my issues are :

Entry fields have thicker lines and remain square instead of having rounded corners. See the 'Classification' field which is an igCombo which displays correctly.

DatePicker has the drop down button messed up.

Disabled fields are now VERY light and almost unreadable.

Grids also have some issues :

The 'Paging' feature header is messed up with multiple lines. When you click into the page size box the 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 choices are displayed BENEATH the grid. There is something very wrong there.

The 'Created On' filter row has the date picker selector/arrow is on the wrong column. It also scrolls the entire grid when clicked.

The Filter button is overwritten by the 'Contains' text - see the 'ID' and 'Status' filter columns.

I have no specific CSS for these pages, they just use Infragistics and the Redmond Themeroller.

Thank you
