Here's an interesting extra twist. It works fine if I use a WOGenericContainer
in place of the AUC. Both are defined by elementName binding as "tr". It also
works as it should if I just manually make use <tr>….</tr>. The only condition
where it doesn't work is if the container is an AUC. Here's what the page
source shows:
working
<tr _componentName = "edu.ucla.gseis.components.ApprovalRow"
class="resultsTable" id="rowUpdateContainer__2">
not working
<tr _componentname="edu.ucla.gseis.components.ApprovalRow"
id="rowUpdateContainer__2" class="resultsTable"
data-updateurl="/cgi-bin/WebObjects/eTimesheet.woa/ajax/ELDoTnfSLMAOBdKwfblMxM/9.0.5.23.3.3.0.5.0.0.1.1.3">
I'll run it through a validator but the one non-working condition is curious.
Maybe the AUC is not reporting "rowIndex" to the browser properly when
elementName is bound as "tr".
