I think Dmitry was suggesting that you hook the event generated by the
progressBar
when it updates its progress. You can write a javascript function that
listens for this
event, then calls the refresh method on the textField widget. I think
this is the
com_sun_webui_widget_progressBar_event_progress_end event (not sure of the
exact name, as I'm working in WS 4.3 after the namespace change we have made
for our widget library).
So, subscribe to this event and your event handler can then refresh the
textField
widget appropriately.
