Thanks! Alas, although I do use my own poor-man's Ajax-like code (which actually predates Ajax :)) in some pages, in this particular case it would be sorta overkill.
Having checked all the possibilities I've accepted (with a surprise) that such a trivial task is highly non-trivial :), and instead re-written the application so that the refresh is not needed anymore. That was easiest solution by far :) Thanks again, OC > On 2. 9. 2022, at 9:29, Hugi Thordarson <h...@godurkodi.is> wrote: > > If you're using the Ajax framework, you can also do something like… > > <wo:AjaxUpdateContainer id="dlContainer"> > <p>Number of downloads: <wo:str value="$numberOfDownloads" /></p> > </wo:AjaxUpdateContainer> > <wo:AjaxPing cacheKey="$numberOfDownloads" targetContainerID="dlContainer" /> > > <wo:link action="$download">Download</wo:link> > > …and just increment numberOfDownloads on each download. > > Note that AjaxPing submits lightweight requests at regular intervals (3000ms > by default, settable by the frequency binding) to check for changes to the > watched value, so it might not be suitable if you have a lot of these pages > open for a longer time. > > Cheers, > - hugi > > >> On 1 Sep 2022, at 10:13, OCsite via Webobjects-dev >> <webobjects-dev@lists.apple.com <mailto:webobjects-dev@lists.apple.com>> >> wrote: >> >> Hi there, >> >> thanks for previous answers, the JS solution works like a charm. >> Nevertheless, I've bumped into another problem: along with downloading the >> file (returning appropriate WOResponse from my action method), I would need >> to refresh the page as well, to increment a visible download counter etc. Is >> there a known solution for that?
