[Cartoweb-dev] New Plugin with Dropdown

[Carolin Latze]

Hi,

thanks, I will also do that :-) But I have another question. In
cartoclient.tpl I defined the dropdown with the following onchange value:

javascript:document.carto_form.posted.value=0;FormItemSelected();

It seems, that this action does not trigger the handleHttpPostRequest
method in my plugin... I added some debug output and I see that this
method will not be executed if I select something in the menu. But if I
load another plugin, which also implements the handleHttpPostRequest
method and trigger it, the dropdown-plugin's handleHttpPostRequest will
also be executed. The latter behavior makes sense, but the first one
indicates that I chose the wrong onchange value, doesn't it?

Regards
Carolin
