I've never seen Windows Explorer act this way, and I've only seen it on the
web folder that I use to access the workspace on our SPPS server, so I
thought I'd give a shout-out to this list.
I have a web folder set up for our workspace -- in our case, it's workspace
"inside" on server "go". So, the web folder is for \\go\inside and most of
the time, things work ok. I can add content sources, browse and add
categories, etc. I use this extensively to checkin/out, publish, approve,
reject and change properties of documents in the document library.
However, several times when working with the folders... I click on a folder
on the left pane and it does not update the right pane with the contents of
the selected folder.
It happens with standard and enhanced folders, folders in or outside the
documents top-level folder, and the only way I can "wake it up" is to click
somewhere totally outside the scope of where I'm at (say, on a Category
name), then click back. Then it updates.
This is real irritating and I can see it being very confusing to my users.
I'm going to be deploying our server very soon, so I'd like to know if
there's a fix for this or something I'm missing. A lot of my users will be
using the web folders like I do to upload, checkin, publish and manage their
documents. It's just so much easier using web folders than using the web
interface.
