Updating xml (DHTML solo mode)

[jtesolin]

Hello,

I noticed that my Laszlo app was not updating. While searching the forum I found a a method that seemed to work for people (datapath.updateData()). I tried in my code but it does not seem to be working.

Am I referencing wrong? I made sure that i had proxied="false"

Please see the attached zip.

I had to change my datapath to:


<dataset name="rssdata" src="forecastrss.xml" request="true" type="http" />
<dataset name="rssdata2" src="forecastrssMont.xml" request="true" type="http" />
<dataset name="rssdata3" src="forecastrssVan.xml" request="true" type="http" />
<dataset name="rssdata4" src="forecastrssHalifax.xml" request="true" type="http" />
<dataset name="rssdata5" src="forecastrssCal.xml" request="true" type="http" />
However, for some reason my tab slider is overlapping when open. I tried changing heights on view, canvas, etc, but I am stuck.


<canvas title="XML Weather" height="380" width="250" proxied="false">
<splash/>
