MultiSelectModule sends different http request

Hi guys,
I'm adding a customized MultiSelectModule Button to a CS 10.5. Does anyone know how come the http request that comes to the CS is different when only one element is selected? The problem is that my LLrequestHandler catches only the request when more than one element is selected.

1) only 1 element selected

09:30:24,607 INFO Fri Feb 05 09:30:24 2016 - 230313 Func='frontpager.IfnFrontpageRH.1079296' Timing: 3.745 3.749 3.745

2) more than one element selected

09:31:58,364 INFO Fri Feb 05 09:31:58 2016 - 53690 Func='ll.1078758.IfnFrontpageRH' Timing: 0.406 0.409 0.406

Thank you, R.

if the form elements that the selection is targeting has a name like nodeid and it is repeated more than once in the request record you will get assuming it is r and the name of the element node it will be r.nodeid and r.nodeid_list.You will alawys get the LIST element when it is one you have 1 element or multiple

Yoou will see in OT code that they have

Integer nodeID
List nodeID_List

and BTW if you were in LL_PARAMSLIST you will get each nodeid I think the nodeid_list is the better one

Thank you for your time Appu, I see what you mean but the problem is that in case 2) the Execute() method in the request handler (IfnFrontpageRH) is not executed. Any idea?

I am not sure but perhaps it is due to your object setting code.Did you do this by following the multiselect buttons code of OT or is this done in some other way.What I can suggest is on submission pls check what your form posts or better stil try to do what the OOB multibuttons like Print does then you should be able to see how OT code works.Does your request come to the execute at all ? but not what you are looking for? What version is it CSIDE or builder that you are working with?if it is builder it would be so easy to debug this half the time CSIDE dies so I am not very good with that

I have done buttons like this looking at what OT code does and it has worked for me.But really every request has to hit a object that is registered .

If the module is not very secret post it here one of us will look at it and suggest remedies.

Hi Roberto,

MultiSelectModule is designed to allow you to provide different results depending on whether single or multiple items have been selected by the end-user. Typically these behaviors are the same but you can make them different if desired.

The code that's called is determined by the ftype and faction features in your MultiSelectModule object:

faction is the requesthandler for multiple items
ftype is the webnodeaction for a single item

Hope this helps,

Set a breakpoint and follow what the OT code does helped me to conifm what Chris suggested. Thank you for putting me in the right path.
