Hello,
I got a problem with the codeexplorer while editing a javascript file. Each time I switch back to the js-file I need to click on the refresh button on top of the codeexplorer. Also when I switch between two js-files, the codeexlorer keeps the old listing for the last selected file until I press the refresh button.
This Problem occurs since one of the last updates. In older Versions this Problem did not exists.
So I hope you can fix this as soon as possible.
Thanks!

Re: Code-Explorer and Javascript
I am afraid I can not reproduce this problem. Are you using the latest version..?
Does anybody have similar issues?
Have you tried to move cursor over the Code Explorer tree? Does not it help?

Re: Code-Explorer and Javascript
Yes, I can replicate it.
Open WeBuilder with no files open, and view the Code Explorer.
Open a .js file and the Code Explorer stays blank.
Refresh the Code Explorer and it shows the .js file.
Now open a .asp file and the Code Explorer automatically refreshes to show the .asp file.
Now switch back to the .js file and Code Explorer is now blank, have to click refresh on it again.
With two .js files open it seems to get stuck on one of them, and have to refresh to correct it each time.
Auto Switch Language is ticked in the options of the Code Explorer, version 9.5.2.106
Cheers,
Mike

I cannot replicate. I tried MikeyB's walkthrough above following the instructions to the letter but all js, php and asp files open as expected with their subsequent code breakdown in the code explorer window.
Using Vista Business and WB version 9.5.2.106

Re: Code-Explorer and Javascript
Hmm, strange!
I did forget to say that I'm using XP Pro SP2, and the files were on a network.
I just tried some files on my C: drive and it behaves the same.
I notice that when I'm in an asp file that the Code Explorer has three tabs at the bottom, HTML, CSS & JavaScript
When I switch to a .JS file it now only has a JavaScript tab, so Code Explorer knows it has changed to a js file, but it is completely blank till I click on the Refresh button at the top.

Re: Code-Explorer and Javascript
I just tried this on my home computer and got the same result as with my work laptop; with no files open, opening a js file shows all elements etc. in the code explorer no problems. Running Vista Business here as well.

Re: Code-Explorer and Javascript
Seems we figured it out.
1) This problem does not happen if you are working with files of small size;
2) If you are working with large files, then code explorer refreshes only after you move your mouse over it (after you have switched the document to another one). However, this was not true for JavaScript files.
There was a bug, and it is fixed now. Thanks for reporting this.
Unfortunately I am not sure when this fix will be released, as we are now concentrating on the next version.
