Andrew Robinson commented on TRINIDAD-805:
------------------------------------------

I don't see how this is a bug. The on* methods are meant to handle events, not to be invoked directly

>    Affects Versions: 1.2.3-core

> Calling onclick() method of a <tr:commandLink> from javascript to trigger a PPR fails in IE because the (global) event method is null and an IE-specific tweak in TrPage._autoSubmit tries to reference it.
> Workaround is to create and fire a click event.
> Here is the onclick specification from the generated page:
>   onclick="TrPage._autoSubmit('content:myPage','content:myLink',event,1);return false;"
> The event object referred to there is null, because the onclick() was called from javascript rather than triggered by an event.
> That calls through to Trinidad code from adf/jsLibs/Page.js:
> TrPage._autoSubmit = function(formId, inputId, event, validateForm, params)
> {
>   if (_agent.isIE)
>   {
>     // comments trimmed
>     if (event["type"] == "hidden")  // Fails HERE.
>       event = window.event;
>   }
