How to refresh inside of an extension?

[Jammer]

Hey everyone!

I have an extension with a UI running as a command, and inside the UI i\I am
getting the site name. Now if you run the exteension inside DW then close it
then switch your current site and then you start the extension again, it still
displays the old site. Can I somehow refresh the cache, or memory, or wherever
the info is stored? Thanks!!!

You need to build a routine, or may be able to use the one you used for
getting the current site, to run onload of the interface to get the current
site onload instead of an event in the UI.

Well, I am actually having more problems thatn with just the site name. I also
need to refresh becuase I copy files in the extension to the active site, then
the next step I make sure that has happened, but I have to restart DW before
the changes are reflected...

Is there any undocumented refresh function or something? I can't put it all in
the window.onLoad function.

THanks!

You should never have to refresh the entire UI, but parts of it yes.

If you copy files to a site, you can then look to that site where you just
copied them to. Then depending on what you need to do with that info
...populate a list etc.. you write another function to do just that only.

Let me rephrase that. Don't think of it as refreshing anything. You don't do
that. You need to think more in terms of updating something. You can append
items to something that's already there, or rewrite all of the items
alltogether.

Oh... ok that makes more sense. Let me play around with the code and my logic, and I'll keep you updated.

Thanks again!

I recall there is an issue with getting the current Site however.
Believe it was Murray who held the secret sauce for this one. Murray?
