Blur event on form items and setFieldErrors creates an endless loop on Chrome –7.0 RC

[ThomasH]

Hello,

Please see the following code:

isc.VLayout.create({
    ID: 'vertical',
    width: "100%",
    height: "100%",
    members: [
    isc.DynamicForm.create({
        ID: "exampleForm",
        width: 250,
        fields: [{
            type: "text",
            name: "name",
            title: "Name",
            defaultValue: "Bob",
            blur: function (form, item) {
                exampleForm.setFieldErrors('name', 'Error', true);
                alert(1);
            }
        },
        {
            name: "email",
            title: "Email",
            type: "text",
            defaultValue: "bob@isomorphic.com"
        }]
    })]
});

In IE and FF the blur event is only fired once, like it should be. The alert is only shown once. But in Chrome it creates an endless loop.

How can I make the blur event on Chrome to behave like in IE and FF?

I don't see this behavior in 8.0. Also, don't use alert() because it can affect the event handling. Use isc.logWarn and check the developer console instead. Give this a try and see what you get in the log.

Hi David,

thank you for your response! Yes the alert is there only to illustrate the issue. Replacing it with isc.logWarn('blur executed'); leads the same endless loop. I see it rattling in the console...

Any other idea to solve the issue?

Can you try this with 8.0 Beta?

[ThomasH]

In beta 8 this works. Any idea how to solve this in 7.0RC2?

I am looking for a SmartClient 8.0 developer for a 1 or 2 page application to start with.

Can someone please tell me how to find one?

7.0 pre-dates Chrome. This is one of several issues that you might encounter using Chrome with 7.0, so it's best to upgrade to 8.0 if you need Chrome support.
