I have a portal "Folder" that has multiple "Pages". Lets say I was
storing customer information and I wanted to split this information up
over the pages using multiple portlets. The information isn't that
connected so it is likely that a user would edit things on one page at a
time anyway. Each page has its own Edit button that when clicked, puts
the portal in Edit mode and gives them a Save and Cancel button.
My problem is that they can enter a bunch of information after clicking
Edit and then before they Save, click on another tab, taking them to
another page. They then lose everything they typed in. What is the
best solution for this? I really want to force them to click either the
Save or Cancel button before continuing. Or, I would at least like to
have the chance to save the information before they leave the page so
that it can be restored when they go back to that page. Another option
would be to hide the other tabs so that they can't change pages.
My portlets inherit from GenericPortlet so no framework is being used.
Are any of these options possible?
How do other people handle this situation?
