Calling events from webview - event not being called on webview.reload()

Question

Calling events from webview - event not being called on webview.reload()

You must Login before you can answer or comment on any questions.

I'm using the latest version of the SDK and yet this doesn't seem to work.

In my results.js file:

var webview = Ti.UI.createWebView({url:'page.htm'});
win.add(webview);
 
Ti.App.addEventListener('getData', function(){
    alert('fired');
});

In page.htm:

<html>
    <head>
 
        alert('webview loaded');
        Ti.App.fireEvent('getData');
 
    </head>
    <body></body>
</html>

The first time results.js loads the webview alerts "webview loaded" and then calls the event getData. However on calling webview.reload() the webview alerts "webview loaded", but the fireEvent doesn't fire/get through.

I've even tried re-setting the Ti.App.addEventListener before reloading the webview.... I don't know what else to do.

Thank you.

How about if you reset the (same) url rather than using the reload method?

You could also try adding a random number param to the page.htm?rand=12345 too.

Interested to know how this works out.

btw: iPhone or Android?
