-----------------------------------
On further debugging, I've narrowed down this test case further.
In IE, when I click on the maximize/minimize event, it always works if I open it in a new
tab (which is ofcourse not a solution or even a workaround) but when I simply click on the
icon, I see that the portlet shrinks a wee bit (this does NOT happen in firefox), and the
HTTP request is not even made. When I release the mouse button, it expands (by the 2% or
so that it shrunk) and nothing happens. I keep trying this till it works and at that
point, it does get maximized except that it will disappear when it is either restored or
minimized from that point on.
Why is there a difference in behavior and particularly, why does it shrink a wee bit in
IE? Is there a way I can turn that off?
Also, if the portlet disappears, how can I render it again? Worst case scenario, even if
it requires database updates (to be done by the admin), it is okay. The way we have it
now, there is literally no way to get it back. Thanks for your help..
Portlet disappears in IE 7.0 after it is maximized

Key: JBPORTAL-1769
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-1769
Project: JBoss Portal
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: Portal Portlet
Affects Versions: 2.6.1 Final
Environment: Windows XP, Internet Explorer 7.0
Reporter: krish p
Assigned To: Julien Viet
Fix For: 2.6.3 Final
I am not able to reproduce the exact issue in this build,
http://portal.demo.jboss.com/portal/default but I can definitely see related issues.
Essentially, this is the problem:
* Add a portlet on the page.
* Maximize it, restore it, minimize it, and keep doing this a few times, and at some
point, the portlet disappears for the user and cannot ever be restored (unless the portlet
is chosen to be added again, and even in that case, it fails occasionally).
After doing a fair bit of testing, I've narrowed down the test case to the
following:
* This does NOT reproduce in Firefox and happens only in IE
* Even in IE, it happens ONLY when clicking on the maximize/minimize/restore events DOES
NOT work the first time.
I am able to see the exact the same issue in the
http://portal.demo.jboss.com/portal/default build in IE. The portlet events do not work
unless repetitively tried, and in our case, the portlet disappears exactly at that point.
In other words, when the portlet event does not get kicked off the first time when the
portlet is in the maximized mode, the portlet ends up disappearing when we repeatedly
click on that event (be it minimize or restore).
It is a little painful to reproduce this but the problem does exist in IE.
