B4J Question WebApp: Selector not updated

[rwblinn]

Hi All,

have developed a simple webapp sendmail (another B4JHOWTO using jQuery Mobile).
The mail is sent using SMTP. This works all fine, but after the mail is sent a selector ("lblfooter" as defined in the index.html) is not updated in the html file.
If clicking on a dialog, like about button, the selector is updated.
The same happens if instead of updating a label, a ws.Alert is used.
It seems the connection to the websocket in put on hold after SMPT send is used.
See attached project.

Questions: Any ideas how to fix = selector or showing an alert after email has been delivered (or not)?

Sub SendEmail
...
smtpEMail.Initialize with Event SMTP
smtpEMail.Send
...
End Sub

Sub SMTP_MessageSent(Success As Boolean)
Dim msg As String = DateTime.Time(DateTime.Now) & " :: Mail sent "
If Success = False Then
  msg = msg & "error."
Else
  msg = msg & "successful."
End If
' THIS DOES NOT WORK STRAIGHT - The label is updated after f.e. button About was clicked
lblFooter.SetText(msg)
End Sub

You should call ws.Flush at the end of this sub.

See the server events section in this tutorial: [WebApp] Chatroom - Threads, Sessions and Server events

Rob,

The js functions called by SMTP_MessageSent are server event(not from the client, so ws.Flush should be called.

    lblFooter.SetText(msg)
    ws.Flush

Again,It's a nice work.

Cheers,
bz
