Multiple instances of the same page for a single user session

[Anthony Fox <an...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Is it possible to have multiple instances of the same page for a
single user session?  I have an application that searches a database
and creates a new window with the results of a search.  Users can then
go back to the original window and perform another search.  The second
search will pop up in a new window with the results of the second
search.  The two search results windows are separate searches that can
be paged and manipulated in other ways by the user.  However, they
have the same implementation.  The search form uses
IRequestCycle.getPage() to pass on search information to these results
pages.  Pooling prevents multiple instances of the same page to be
created.  Is there a way to force creation of a new instance of the
page?  Is there a better solution for doing this type of thing?

Thanks,
Anthony

Hi,

Thanks for the response.  My results page uses a contrib:Table to page
through the search's result set.  Is it possible to set a hidden field
or a persistent parameter passed on each request for contrib:Table?

Thanks,
Anthony

My suggestion (and others probably have better suggestions :) is to
ditch persistent properties for the popup page, which it sounds like you
are using.  Instead, try putting things within the context of a form,
and using a hidden at the beginning of the page to store the object
information you need to restore the necessary state for that page.
Since every page that pops up will have a unique hidden object, it
should be fine.
For instance, if you wanted to keep the results in the session, you
could store them in a map, and store the key to the particular results
in the hidden object. Then you can restore the correct result set from
the map using the key.
