Destroy/initiate issue

[kflorence]

@outprove Thanks for reporting. I will take a look when I have some free time.

@outprove I looked at the JSFiddle example briefly and I noticed several problems, although I don't see how any of them could cause the behavior you're experiencing:

• you don't need to apply any wizard-* classes yourself -- the plugin will take care of this for you.
• not every step needs to have it's own branch. the wizard itself is the default branch, so steps can just be children of the wizard (unless branches are needed).
• by default, the wizard will transition to the data-state provided -- so you don't need to manually provide all of those transitions yourself. If you want to make sure the .val() of the current step is not blank before proceeding, you can do that once in the beforeForward event handler.

It will be difficult to try to reproduce this case outside of that JSFiddle since there is so much stuff going on. If anyone can reproduce this using a unit test, that would be preferable.

@kflorence I'm actually using a database procedure to dynamically genereate the JS/HTML based on a user-customizable questionnaire. (Hence the excessive branches/transitions for every question, I never know what I'll need in terms of complexity of dependencies ). I'll attempt to reproduce with a stripped down test.

I simplified it, I simply used the first included example (and stripped it to the first one at that.) Here's the jsfiddle:

https://jsfiddle.net/ed1rb2fr/17/

To reproduce it:

1. Start the wizard by clicking on the button
2. Enter a value in name, and hit forward
3. At the second step hit destroy wizard
4. Click startwizard again, the first step shows again properly
5. Hit forward

You'll see then instead of just the second step, you'll see the second step and the result shown together. This doesnt happen during the first pass of the wizard if you dont destroy it.

Thanks!

@outprove thanks for taking the time to do that, sorry I've been so busy, haven't had time to take a look yet. Perhaps I can get to it this weekend.

@kflorence FYI, I figured out what the issue was - for some reason if you destroy and then reinstitute the wizard, the click event gets added again. I added a step in the destroy function that specifically unbinds the click event for both forward and backward:
( jQuery(self.elements.forward).off("click");
jQuery(self.elements.backward).off("click");)

That seemed to do the trick.

@outprove thanks for digging into it. Sorry that I haven't had time to be more responsive. It sounds like this might be something that can be patched in the code. I'll take a look when I get the chance.
