Web - The ViewStateException occurs when using Chrome's Duplicate tab functionality under certain circumstances

created 8 years ago

Hi Guys!

I am testing the new mutlitab browser feature. But if you select the option (in Chrome) for duplicate tab (right click) the xaf app is chrashing.
Please watch the videos for more information

    Hello Douglas,

    Thank you for contacting us. I have reproduced the behavior on my side. We need additional time to research it further.

    Thanks,

      Having researched this behavior, we found that it is caused by a browser's autocomplete functionality. Currently, you can apply the solution described in the The Invalid ViewState exception is thrown in Chrome when the Back and Forward buttons are used ticket on your side: add the following script to Default.aspx

      HTML
      <html>  
....  
<body>  
....  
    <script type="text/javascript">  
        document.getElementById('__EVENTVALIDATION').setAttribute('autocomplete', 'off');  
    </script>  
</body>  
</html>
