CFdiv refresh and Jquery

Why use a bind *and* a jquery trigger? They're doing the same thing, with different libraries, which may cause problems ...

Anyway, this sample code updates both the text field and cfdiv whenever something is selected from the list.

<!--- sample values for testing only ---->
<cfset docAreaID = 111>

<cfset qGetDocTypes = queryNew("")>
<cfset queryAddColumn(qGetDocTypes, "DocTypeID", listToArray("1,2,3"))>
<cfset queryAddColumn(qGetDocTypes, "Name", listToArray("AAA,BBB,CCC"))>

<!--- Change "testPage.cfm" to your URL --->
<cfform>
<input name="btnScan" type="button" id="btnScan" style="WIDTH: 120;HEIGHT: 30" onClick="return btnScan_onclick()" value="Scan"/>
<cfinput name="ScanDocument" id="ScanDocument" type="text" bind="{DocType}" class="ScanDocument">
<cfselect name="DocType" id="DocType" class="selectClass" query="qGetDocTypes" display="name" value="DocTypeID" />
<cfdiv style="border:1" id="handler_#docAreaID#" bind="url:testPage.cfm?ScannedDocument={ScanDocument}">
</cfform>

Select allOpen in new window

after I upload a new file (btnScan) I can refresh the list that's in the cfdiv.

You don't need jquery, you can use ColdFusion.navigate. Here's a working example that refreshes the cfdiv when you click the refresh button.  

<!--- TestPage.cfm ---->
<cfoutput>refreshed #now()#</cfoutput>
<cfdump var="#URL#">

<!--- SamplePage.cfm ---->
<!--- sample values for testing only ---->
<cfset docAreaID = 111>
<cfset qGetDocTypes = queryNew("")>
<cfset queryAddColumn(qGetDocTypes, "DocTypeID", listToArray("1,2,3"))>
<cfset queryAddColumn(qGetDocTypes, "Name", listToArray("AAA,BBB,CCC"))>

<script type="text/javascript">
	function refreshDiv(divToRefresh) {
		var doc = ColdFusion.getElementValue('ScanDocument');
	    ColdFusion.navigate('testPage.cfm?ScannedDocument='+ doc, divToRefresh);
	}
</script>
<cfform>
<cfinput name="ScanDocument" id="ScanDocument" type="text" bind="{DocType}" class="ScanDocument">
<cfselect name="DocType" id="DocType" class="selectClass" query="qGetDocTypes" display="name" value="DocTypeID" />
<cfdiv style="border:1" id="handler_#docAreaID#" bind="url:testPage.cfm?ScannedDocument={ScanDocument}">
<cfoutput>
<input name="refresh" type="button" onClick="refreshDiv('handler_#docAreaID#')" value="Refresh CFDIV"/>
</cfoutput>
</cfform>

Sorry, I'm not seeing the difference in code.  When I click the SCAN button I go through some Jquery to acquire an image from the scanner and upload it as a file on the server.  When that's finished I want to refresh the list of files (the CFdiv).  The CFdiv also has some edit, delete, and view options for each file.  The bind using ScannedDocument is just a "trick" (that's not working) to refresh the div.

Hm.. did you run the exact code I posted? Specifically with the separate target page: "TestPage.cfm"? Because the demo code works perfectly for me.  It displays the time whenever the cfdiv is refreshed, so you can see the refresh is working.

Well you don't have to use a bind.  ColdFusion.navigate works just fine without it. (See example).  So calling refreshDiv('divIDYouWantToRefresh') from jquery shouldn't behave any differently..

<cfset docAreaID = 111>
<script type="text/javascript">
	function refreshDiv(divToRefresh) {
            var doc = "I was called from javascript";
	    ColdFusion.navigate('testPage.cfm?ScannedDocument='+ doc, divToRefresh);
	}
</script>
<cfdiv id="handler_#docAreaID#" />
<form>
<cfoutput>
<input type="button" onClick="refreshDiv('handler_#docAreaID#')" value="Refresh CFDIV"/>
</cfoutput>
</form>

Sorry, I was in between your posts.

It was the url:path that was causing the error.  Many thanks.

As usual, fast and correct.

Great, glad I could help.
