Hello,
I'm building a forms application that loads our helpdesk software (Remedy) and watches for email addresses. It then turns the email address into an AD lookup and displays things like their username, account status, ect.
However, our remedy webapplication opens a few popups that need to keep the session state intact. I've done this using the newwindow3 event, however, when the popup closes, the original form fails to work correctly (buttons don't work, content isn't updated). If I don't catch the new window event, and allow it to open in ie (I have to log in), everything works like expected.
I've tried 2 different ways of handling it to no avail.
Method 1 in .net 4.0
[XCODE]
The app correctly captures the popup (all of them, but ill use a singular example of selecting your technician).
I select a technician in the displayed popup form, and hit "Save", this appear to be a javascript button which also closes the form.
After hitting the save button, focus is returned to the original Form. However, the assigned technican does not change, nor do any of the buttons on form work (except the ones that create popups).
I have the same problem with the following implimentation using the webbrowser control and the activeXinstance
[XCODE]
