Description

Using Wt 4.10.3 I still get this Javascript error, which started appearing in 4.10.2. Probably it is related to the famous "Fix for 12006 causes exception".

Wt internal error; code: undefined, description: Wt4_10_3.$(...).layout is undefined

I did a long investigation and found out that this happens when using a WMenuItem that creates a disabled WPanel with a WLayout and child items. I extracted the essential code from my code basis.
Using the mini-sample attached, the error can be reproduced.

Hi Stefan,

famous as #12006 may be, it is not related to this. The issue popped up in 4.10.1, and is related to #10512, I believe. When the disabled state is propagated, it seems that the layout adjust is called too soon, before it is actually instantiated in the JS code.
Even though #10512 was tested thoroughly, it is impossible to catch all possible combinations and configurations of widgets, sadly. I am looking at creating tests to at least catch a lot of the more common cases.

Regardless, thank you for your submission.
