Locator not being cleared
« on: August 29, 2013, 04:36:19 AM »
Hi

I have a browse 'browseinventory' that is being called from the menu several different ways by passing a different parameter (ex 'catg=a' or 'catg=f') . The problem is that when the locator is used on one call of the browseinventory and the user then goes to the top menu and selects a different option that runs the same browse (but with a different parameter) the locator retains the value from the previous called browse.

Shouldn't the locator be automatically cleared when it is initialized?

How and where can I manually clear this locator?

Thanks
Lee

Its a 'search' locator type on the locator tab in the netwebbrowse settings.

The text on the browse is "Locate (Contains) Pattern:"

add
&_refresh_=clearlocate
to the parameters of the menu item. eg
catg=a&_refresh_=clearlocate
