IWDInteractiveForm on upgraded NW 7.4 broken?

Hi,

We have upgrade our NW 7.0 Java stack to NW 7.4 SP6

We are now migrating our custom developed WDJ applications, and in one particular area we have suffered quite some pain :

We have a view showing two IWDInteractiveForm (hereafter abbreviated to 'IF') and couple of action buttons. One IF displays a pre-rendered PDF, the other shows a generated Interactive Form.

For reasons unknown, no events were fired from the buttons when those two IF's were visible, not even the wdDoBeforeAction hook method was called; only thing we saw was the spinning wheel...

If we made both IF's invisible, the buttons fired their respective events as expected, so that's how we figured the issue was related to the IF's.

After a long day, we found out if we set both the IF's property 'enabled' to 'false' and 'readOnly' to 'true', *only then* the events were triggered. In our case this is no biggie since the forms displayed are non-editable anyway, but in case we had editable forms we would be dead in the water...

Has anyone encountered this issue as well, and hopefully knows a more feasible workaround than setting those two properties?

Any help and insights are highly appreciated!

Robin

Robin,

This may be related to ZCI script. Do you have the automated ZCI script injection enabled?

Also, double check that your ADS has the latest ZCI script

Which browser are you using? If Chrome or Firefox, make sure SAP note 1940461 is installed, observe also the recommendations in SAP note 1840580. Maybe the folks in have something to add.

Hi Samuli,

Unfortunately it happens in both IE 9 (with/without compatibility mode) and Chrome (FF is not available at client)

In the 'old' 7.0 environment the same browsers work like a charm so I suspect it's not a browser issue perse...
