WF 7.6.4 two Double list controls on the same page

Hello everyone,
I've problem with new(?) WF 7.6.4 "Double List" control:
If i put two "double list" controls on the same page - only one of them works right. The other one doesn't do what it supposed to, i.e. moving rows from one listbox to other doesn't work. When I click on rows or press buttons with arrows, nothing happens.
So is there any possible way to make two "double list" controls work right on the same page?

Thank you.

P.S. I'm new here and my native language is not english, so sorry if I made some mistakes.
Thanks.

When you say 'double list', do you mean you are trying to execute two different fex programs from the same launch page? You can if the parameters used on the page are the same as the parameters used in the fex (the names). It's dependent also on how the launch page is set up.

I'm talking about user interface control in Dev Studio - HTML Layout Painter, which is called "Double List control"(It's between listbox and push button).
When I put two of these "double list controls" on the same page only one works correctly. You can try it too if you have WF DevStudio with WF 7.6.4.
Just put two "Double list controls" on the same HTML page, attach some procedure or mas file, and try double clicking rows.

I hope It's more clear now.
Thanks.

Sorry, never used it. But have you given them unique names and so on?

array,

Your going to need to open a case with the help desk for this unless you create your own double controls.

It appears that it only works with the first double control that you move something, which indicates that they are not picking up the new set of selection boxes in the javascript.

Indeed, you need to open a case with IBI for this.
But, since this will quite probably take a lot of time to get corrected, here's a way to correct the situation yourself for the time being.
-------
In the javascript directory (ibi_html/javaassist/ibi/html/js), there is a file called ibirls2.js. This file contains the function that is in error. The function is called moveSelection and you can find it starting on line 8522. You can either copy the code of this function into your own htm file to a place somewhere below the line where the ibigbl.js is called, or you could change ibirls2.js.
In any case, locate the part that starts with the line:
if(controlInFocusID == null)
{
  var infocus = document.activeElement;
.......
.......
}

Now place two slashes (//) in fromt of the first if statement and hte two line with the { and } characters so that it looks like:
// if(controlInFocusID == null)
// {
  var infocus = document.activeElement;
.......
.......
// }

After saving the changes and recyling the browser-request the listbox values will be copied for both double list controls.

Hope this helps...

You're most welcome and I saved Gizmo's answer in case I ever do use the control.

Hey!!! It works!
Thank you very much GamP.

IBI already knows about this issue so it should be fixed in the next DevStudio release(So I am told).

Thanks everyone.
Cheers.
