I'm having trouble passing in the name of an element into a Dyanamics CRM web Resource javacript.
This code works:
function OnFormLoad()
{
var subGrid = window.parent.document.getElementById("Claims")
// do work
}
This code doesn't:
function OnFormLoad(GridName)
{
var subGrid = window.parent.document.getElementById(GridName)
// do work
}
How do I pass in the name of the element I want to work with?
Please refrain from using document.getElementById in Dynamics as it is not supported.
I believe you are trying to get GridContext and get Data from that Grid.
For Example on Account entity we have Contacts as Grid and then you wish to get data from that Grid.
I replicated the same on Account Entity (OnLoad) and get tried to get data from Contacts Grid.
When adding OnLoad event I have passed Grid name as Parameter as below.
I have added below onLoad Js on Account entity and was able to retrieve data from grid.
Note: I have added timeout because directly firing onload was not able to load complete page and then grid Name was not available.
function onLoad(executionContext,gridName){
setTimeout(function(){ getGridDatat(executionContext,gridName); }, 3000);
}
function getGridDatat(executionContext,gridName){
debugger
var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
var gridContext = formContext.getControl("Contacts"); // get the grid context
var myRows = gridContext.getGrid().getRows();
/*var myRow = myRows.get(arg);
var gridRowData = myRow.getData();*/
var firstRow =myRows.get(0).getData();
var firstRowAllAttributes = firstrow.entity.attributes.getAll()
var firstRowfirstAttributeValue = firstrow.entity.attributes.get(0).getValue()
}
If you want to perform some operation on change of data formGird then there is one more way to achieve this. Make your grid as Editable and then you can find Events for that gird as below and could perform your operations.
In NativeScript, how can I get the value of a textfield using JavaScript (not TypeScript/Angular)?
XML:
I've tried various combinations of "getViewByID()" but nothing is working (perhaps I didn't "require" right libraries?). Not looking to do 2-way binding; just get the value (print to the console).
Just as a reminder, it's usually a good idea to share some code with your question to show what you have already tried.
In this example you could have shared some xml markup for instance.
Anyways to get the value of a textfield you would have something like this.
var view = require("ui/core/view");
function pageLoaded(args) {
var page = args.object;
var textfield= view.getViewById(page, "textfieldID");
}
After this you should be able to do :
var text = textField.text;
Well, I've been reading the documentation and I believe that I'm calling functions and passing parameters correctly, but for the life of me I can't get this simple UI code to work.
I'm generating a UI for a Spreadsheet using the following code:
function checkOut() {
var app = buildUI();
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
spreadsheet.show(app);
}
function buildUI() {
var gui = UiApp.createApplication();
gui.setTitle("Check-Out/Check-In");
gui.setStyleAttribute("background", "lavender");
// Absolute panel for setting specific locations for elements
var panel = gui.createAbsolutePanel();
// Equipment ID#s Label
var equipmentIDLabel = gui.createLabel("Equipment ID#s");
equipmentIDLabel.setHorizontalAlignment(UiApp.HorizontalAlignment.CENTER);
equipmentIDLabel.setSize("20px", "125px");
equipmentIDLabel.setStyleAttributes({background: "SteelBlue", color: "white"});
// Add all components to panel
panel.add(equipmentIDLabel, 10, 0);
gui.add(panel);
return gui;
}
function getUIdata(eventInfo) {
// I know how to get the data from each element based on ID
}
It generates the Absolute Panel correctly when checkOut() is called, but the EquipmentIDLabel is never added to the panel. I am basing the code on the simplistic design I created in the GUI builder (that will be deprecated in a few days, which is why I am writing the code so that I can change it later):
So what exactly is going wrong here? If I can figure out how to add one element, I can infer the rest by looking at the docs. I've never been any good at GUI development!
You could maybe use grid as an interesting alternative... here is an example :
// define styles
var labelStyle = {background: "SteelBlue", color: "white",'textAlign':'center','line-height':'20px','vertical-align':'middle','font-family':"Arial, sans-serif",'fontSize':'10pt'};// define a common label style
var fieldStyle = {background: "white", color: "SteelBlue",'font-family':"Courrier, serif",'fontSize':'11pt'};// define a common label style
function checkOut() {
var app = buildUI();
var spreadsheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
spreadsheet.show(app);
}
function buildUI() {
var gui = UiApp.createApplication();
gui.setTitle("Check-Out/Check-In");
gui.setStyleAttribute("background", "lavender");
var panel = gui.createAbsolutePanel().setStyleAttribute('padding','10px');
var grid = gui.createGrid(4,2).setWidth('300').setCellPadding(10);//define grid size in number of row & cols
var equipmentID = ['equipmentIDLabel','equipmentIDLabel1','equipmentIDLabel2','equipmentIDLabel3'];// define labels in an array of strings
for(var n=0 ;n<equipmentID.length ; n++){;// iterate
var equipmentIDLabel = gui.createLabel(equipmentID[n]).setWidth('125').setStyleAttributes(labelStyle);
var equipmentIDField = gui.createTextBox().setText('Enter value here').setName(equipmentID[n]).setSize("125", "20").setStyleAttributes(fieldStyle);
grid.setWidget(n,0,equipmentIDLabel).setWidget(n,1,equipmentIDField);
}
gui.add(panel.add(grid));
return gui;
}
It looks like the absolute panel offset method is a little capricious and take control of your positioning, in my tests I have been able to position panels that are visible in the following way:
panel.add(equipmentIDLabel);
panel.add(equipmentIDField,150,0);
panel.add(otherLabel);
panel.add(otherField, 150, 20);
Try it out with trial and error, you may get the UI you need, if not I would move to an alternate layout, verticalPanel is a little better behaved and of course you can use forms as well.
Another small bug is that you inverted the length and hight in equipmentIDLabel.setSize("20px", "125px");
Let me know if I can be of more assitance
The specific problem in your code is the following line :
// Add all components to panel
panel.add(equipmentIDLabel, 10, 0);
Simply change it to : panel.add(equipmentIDLabel);
..and you will see the field (at position 0,0).
As patt0 observes, you can then add OTHER components and use positioning. It seems to be a limitation of adding the first field to an absolutePanel.
Of course, the Google Script gui is now deprecated (since December 2014) but I was interested to try your code and see that it still basically executes (as at Feb 2016).
Hi I am trying to make some changes to our implementation of CKEDITOR 3.6.2
by removing all but 2 options in the link target type dropdown that appears in the link dialog's target tab.
I tried to achieve this using the API but I am getting an error in the minified core ckeditor.js file in the dialog() method on this line X=S.lang.dir; where S is the editor.
The .lang property of the editor instance is undefined when doing CKEDITOR.dialog(editor, 'link'), when viewing debugging the "editor" object I don't see a lang object anywhere, so I'm not sure why this is missing? I didn't work on our original implementation but as far as I know we have only added 2 plugins and not changed the ckeditor core.
Here is my code:
for (var i in CKEDITOR.instances) {
var editor = CKEDITOR.instances[i];
var dialogObj = CKEDITOR.dialog(editor, 'link');
var linkDialogTargetField = dialogObj.getContentElement('target', 'linkTargetType');
// API didn't seem to have a more efficient approach than clearing all and re-adding the one we want
linkDialogTargetField.clear();
linkDialogTargetField.add('notSet', '<not set>');
linkDialogTargetField.add('_blank', 'New Window (_blank)');
}
I have managed to make my change without using the API properly by doing the below:
CKEDITOR.on('dialogDefinition', function (ev) {
// Take the dialog name and its definition from the event
// data.
var dialogName = ev.data.name;
var dialogDefinition = ev.data.definition;
// Check if the definition is from the dialog we're
// interested on (the "Link" dialog).
if (dialogName == 'link') {
// Get a reference to the "Link target" tab.
var targetTab = dialogDefinition.getContents('target');
var targetField = targetTab.get('linkTargetType');
// removing everything except the 1st (none set) & 3rd (new window) options from the dropdown
targetField['items'].splice(1, 2);
targetField['items'].splice(2, 3); // the array is reduced by splice, so we have to splice from [2] onwards not from [4]
}
});
but I don't like this approach, does anyone have any ideas? or other ways to achieve the same result using the API?
Using second approach and overwritten the dropdown items instead of splicing.
thanks so much in advance...here is the problem...
I am trying to add dynamic HTML element (EX. [delete]),everytime on a event call using FBJS.I am able to append the element using following code.
var oldFriendHtml = document.getElementById('friend_container');
var numi = document.getElementById('theValue');
var num = (document.getElementById("theValue").getValue()-1)+2;
numi.value = num;
var newElementId = "new"+num;
var newFriendHTML = document.createElement('div');
newFriendHTML.setId(newElementId);
newFriendHTML.setInnerXTML("HTML TO BE ADDED");
oldFriendHtml.appendChild(newFriendHTML);
The problem I am facing is that FBJS parses out the onClick part (event call ) out from the original HTML added .This stops me in the further activity on the added element .It also removes the styling added in the HTML ..
Regarding onclick being parsed out of setInnerXHTML, you can add the event later by using addEventListener.
Here is some sample:
var my_obj = document.getElementById('test');
// add a new event listener for each type of event you needed to capture
my_obj.addEventListener('click',my_click_func); // in your case is onclick
function my_click_func(evnt){
// some action
}
