Bug? Checkboxes in preferences don't save state

fseidl · March 2007

Hello, I think I've found a bug. When I go to the Profile and there to the preferences and click at a checkbox, like "show hidden discussions", the checkbox doesn't save the state. After a reload it has the old state. I've debugged and seen, that the PHP-script ajax/switch.php has an if for a $PostBackKey. When I uncomment it it works. The Ajax-Query from the checkbox doesn't send the PostBackKey... So can I remove the if without any doubts? best regards Franz

The ajax request send the PostBackKey:

function SwitchPreference(AjaxUrl, PreferenceName, RefreshPageWhenComplete, PostBackKey) {
	 var Container = document.getElementById(PreferenceName);
	 var CheckBox  = document.getElementById(PreferenceName+'ID');
	 if (CheckBox && Container) {
		  Container.className = 'PreferenceProgress';
		  var dm = new DataManager();
		  dm.Param = PreferenceName;
		  dm.RequestFailedEvent = HandleFailure;
		  if (RefreshPageWhenComplete == 1) {
	 		  dm.RequestCompleteEvent = RefreshPageWhenAjaxComplete;
		  } else {
	 		  dm.RequestCompleteEvent = PreferenceSet;
		  }
		  dm.LoadData(AjaxUrl+"?Type="+PreferenceName+"&PostBackKey="+PostBackKey+"&Switch="+CheckBox.checked);		
	 }
}

When I change a Bookmark preference in Vanilla 1.1.2 on this forum, the following request is sent:GET http://lussumo.com/community/ajax/switch.php?Type=ShowBookmarks&PostBackKey=xxxxxxxxxxxxxx&Switch=true
Which version of vanilla are you using?
Have you tried to clear your browser cache?

After deleting the cookies it works... (browsercache is deleted automatically, when I close my browser) Now, Ajax sends the PostBackKey... Thank you Dinoboff!
