Coldfusion, Dropdown menu, Can a single option value contain multiple variables? - drop-down-menu

I am writing a CFM file to display a dropdown menu, in the dropdown options I want Var1 [Var2, Var3] to display for each line. I tried both concatenation and commas, tried a mix of brackets and quotes and cannot find the right combination. Using Oracle SQL developer. I am a student taking a database management class. I read through Adobe's site and cannot find an example like this. I also combed stack, but everything is PHP and javascript related. The result should have a dropdown, where each selection shows: cus_code with corresponding [cus_fname, cus_lname] for each line. Below is the query that pulls the data needed and the dropdown menu. The place I am having trouble is in the output, where each line from the dropdown should have 3 variables. Every attempt I make causes an error.
<!--Here is my query: grab customer code, last name, first name from customer table, join invoice table on customer code-->
<CFQUERY NAME="INVOICESEARCH" DATASOURCE="ORCL">
SELECT DISTINCT levine04.CUSTOMER6.CUS_CODE, CUS_LNAME, CUS_FNAME
FROM levine04.CUSTOMER6, levine04.INVOICE6
WHERE levine04.CUSTOMER6.CUS_CODE = levine04.INVOICE6.CUS_CODE;
</CFQUERY>
<!--Here is my dropdown:-->
<TR>
<TD ALIGN="right">INV_NUMBER</TD>
<TD>
<INPUT TYPE ="text" NAME="INV_NUMBER" SIZE="10" MAXLENGTH="10">
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD ALIGN="right">CUS_CODE, [CUS_FNAME, CUS_LNAME]</TD>
<TD>
<SELECT NAME="CUS_CODE" SIZE=1>
<OPTION SELECTED VALUE="ANY">ANY
<CFOUTPUT QUERY="INVOICESEARCH">
<OPTION VALUE="#INVOICESEARCH.CUS_CODE#" + "#INVOICESEARCH.CUS_LNAME#" +"#INVOICESEARCH.CUS_FNAME#"> #CUS_CODE# + #CUSLNAME# + #CUSFNAME#
</CFOUTPUT>
</SELECT>
</TD>
</TR>

Got it! But maybe this will help someone else..
<OPTION VALUE="#INVOICESEARCH.CUS_CODE#"> #CUS_CODE#[#CUS_LNAME#, #CUS_FNAME#]

Watir-Webdriver, Ruby - click on the table row

I'm using Watir-Webdriver and Ruby. On the page I have a table of record. I need to click on any row and it should go the next page. How can I click on the row?
Here's the source code for each record from the table
<tr class="ng-scope" ng-click="clickHandler({rowItem: item})" ng-repeat="item in ngModel">
<td class="ng-bindging">Sometext</td>
<td class="ng-bindging">Sometext1</td>
<td class="ng-bindging">Sometext2</td>
<td class="ng-bindging">Sometext3</td>
<td class="ng-bindging">Sometext4</td>
<td>
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-play-circle"></span>
</td>
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.
As you do not care which tr element you click, you could simply click the first tr element in the table:
record_table = browser.table
record_table.tr.click
If the first row is a header row, you might need to click the last row instead:
record_table = browser.table
record_table.trs.last.click
Note that browser.table will click the first table on the page. If there are more tables on the page, you will want to be more specific - eg browser.table(id: 'some_id').
The key is to find unique attributes that Watir can access. The first issue is that your angular app doesn't product valid html5 without data- prepended.
I don't know what your other rows look like to know how to click this one versus another one, but if that attribute is unique, you could use css:
browser.element(css: "tr[ng-repeat='item in ngModel']")
If your text is unique you could also do this (even though it is less ideal):
browser.td(text: 'Sometext').parent

XPath - Get table if child is not specific string

its posible to do that? Get all table "tr"s except the tr that have an elemente with an especific string.
Example:
<div class="span5">
<table class="table">
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Apple</th>
<td>Red</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Banana</th>
<td>Yellow</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Potato</th>
<td>Brown</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
Simple example, a table with 2 columns, I can select the table with the next Xpath:
//div[#class='span5']/table[#class='table']
But its posible to select the table WITHOUT the "tr" that contains:
//th[.='Potato']
Im usualling solving that problem geting all the table and then filter "tr" contents in Python, but I want to filter with XPath and optimize a bit my code without charge it in memory.
Thanks
Your XPath can be a bit simpler, like so :
//div[#class='span5']/table[#class='table']//tr[th != 'Potato']

Selenium IDE: Handle Ajax controls - select drop down values

I am trying to select drop down values using Selenium IDE. Say for example there are three drop down lists Country, State & City. Once you select a country A from the country drop down, the state drop down is populated (empty before) with the corresponding values and so on for the city.
When I record, some hardcoded values get recorded specific to the value selected in first drop down.
I selected the first value in the first drop down. Then selenium records the following for the ajax action:
click | css=option[value="28"]
Here 28 is the id stored in db for the selected value (first item in the drop down). I don't want this hardcoded value in my script as the actual ids in prod will be different.
I tried using waitForCondition but it is not able to populate the drop down values in the second drop down. Adding pause of 10 seconds also didn't help.
The sample recorded code is here:
<tr>
<td>select</td>
<td>id=property1</td>
<td>index=1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>click</td>
<td>css=option[value="28"]</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>select</td>
<td>id=property2</td>
<td>index=1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>click</td>
<td>css=option[value="12"]</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>select</td>
<td>id=property3</td>
<td>index=1</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>click</td>
<td>css=option[value="14"]</td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
The waitForCondition I tried is here
waitForCondition | var value = selenium.getText("//input[#id='some_xyIDHidden']"); value == "" | 10000
I am probably missing a basic step here. Need help.
Thanks
Try using selenium.fireEvent("<locator>","blur") on each and every element
in this condition you have to to store the value in a variable, the while dropdown will appear then you can use that value, for this you have to use the storeEval command to store the value in a variable

HtmlAgilityPack algorithm question

I’m using HtmlAgilityPack to obtain some Html from a web site.
Here is the received Html:
<table class="table">
<tr>
<td>
<table class="innertable">...</table>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"><strong>Contact</strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">John Doe</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">Jane Doe</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2"> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>Units</strong></td>
<td>32</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>Year</strong></td>
<td>1998</td>
</tr>
</table>
The Context:
I’m using the following code to get the first :
var table = document.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//table[#class='table']").FirstOrDefault();
I’m using the following code to get the inner table :
var innerTable = table.SelectNodes("//table[#class=innertable]").FirstOrDefault();
So far so good!
I need to get some information from the first table and some from the inner table.
Since I begin with the information from the first table I need to skip the first row (which holds the inner table) so I do the following:
var tableCells = table.SelectNodes("tr[position() > 1]/td");
Since I now have all the cells from the first table excluding the inner table, I start doing the following:
string contact1 = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(tableCells[1].InnerHtml);
string contact2 = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(tableCells[2].InnerHtml);
string units = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(tableCells[5].InnerHtml);
string years = HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(tableCells[7].InnerHtml);
The problem:
I’m getting the values I want by hardcoding the index in tableCells[] not thinking the layout would move…unfortunately, it does move.
In some cases I do not have a “Jane Doe” row (as shown in the above Html), this means I may or may not have two contacts.
Because of this, I can’t hardcode the indexes since I might end up having the wrong data in the wrong variables.
So I need to change my approach...
Does anyone know how I could perfect my algorithm so that it can take into account the fact that I may have one or two contacts and perhaps not use hardcoded indexes?
Thanks in advance!
vlince
There is never one unique solution to this kind of problem. Here is an XPATH that seems to do some kind of it though:
HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument();
doc.Load(yourHtmlFile);
doc.Save(Console.Out);
foreach (HtmlNode node in doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//tr[td/strong/text() = 'Contact']/following-sibling::tr/td/text()[. != ' ']"))
{
Console.WriteLine(node.OuterHtml);
}
will display this:
John Doe
Jane Doe
32
1998

Using jQuery Validate to ensure there is at least one row in my table

I am using a table in an entry program to allow the user to add one or more rows of information (much like this article).
I need to ensure that there is at least one row in this table. Google is not really turning much up for me on people doing this. Can anyone give me direction on this? Can I do a count based on a class name?
Here is the layout of my table:
<table id="editorRows">
...
<tbody class="editorRow">
<tr class="row1">
</tr>
<tr class="row2" style="display: none;">
</tr>
<tr class="row3" style="display:none;">
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
A "row" in this case is the tag. Row 2 and 3 get dynamically showen based on options in row 1.
you can use $("#editorRows tr").length > 0
