I am new to domino designer and I am required to develop an application with it. I have went through some tutorials and I am stuck at the search function. I have followed guides I found but the search function in view control is not functioning. When I input anything into the search string(even static value), I get a server error 500. The error code is not very useful for solving my problem.(I have the full text index enabled.)
I tried to create my forms and views with the SiteFinderDemo template. I do not get an error but any search string returns 0 results.
I can modify the SiteFinderFinal's codes to work the way I want properly with the demo documents, but the search function else where just cannot work.
I also noticed new documents created with forms or xpages within the SiteFinderDemo instead of the agent do not work with the search function. I assume it has something to do with the full text searching, but I cannot find any information about it. What am I supposed to set up my application so that the search in view control can work without the server error, and what should I do to make new documents work with the search?
Thank you very much and sorry for such a long question.

I've been refactoring an existing Umbraco project to use more performant querying when getting back document data as everything was previously being returned using LINQ. I have been using a combination of Umbraco's querying via XPaths and Examine.
I am currently stumped on trying to get child documents using the Umbraco.ContentAtXPath() method. What I would like to do is get child document based on a path I parse to the method. This is what I have currently:
IEnumerable<IPublishedContent> umbracoPages = Umbraco.ContentAtXPath("//* [#isDoc]/descendant::/About [#isDoc]");
Running this returns a "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." error and unable to see exactly where I'm going wrong (new to this form of querying in Umbraco).
Ideally, I'd like to enhance the querying to also carry out sorting using the non-LINQ approach, as demonstrated here.
Up until Umbraco 8, content was cached in an XML file, which made XPath perfect for querying content efficiently. In v8, however, the so called "NuCache" is not file based nor XML based, so the XPath query support is only there for ... well... Old times sake, I guess? Either way it's probably not going to be super efficient and (I'd advise) not something to "aim for". That said I of course don't know what you are changing from (Linq can be a lot of things) :-/
It certainly depends on how big your dataset is.
As Umbraco has moved away from the XML backed cache, you should look into Linq queries against your content models. Make sure you use ModelsBuilder to generate the models.
On a small dataset Linq will be much quicker than examine. On a large dataset Examine/Lucene will be much more steady on performance.
Querying NuCache is pretty fast in Umbraco 8, only beaten by an Examine search.
Assuming you're using Models Builder, and your About page is a child of Home page, you could use:
var homePage = (HomePage) Model.Root();
var aboutPage = homePage?.Children<AboutPage>().FirstOrDefault();
var umbracoPages = aboutPage.Children();
Where HomePage is your home page Document Type Alias and AboutPage is your About page Document Type alias.
Whenever I search for tweets using the geocode option, the returned tweets have "null" as their geo property. They are definitely coming from the right place because the location property has a name which is in the correct area, however I want to know what the coordinates of the tweet are so I can place on on a map (specifically Windows Phone).
I've tried a really hacky solution of searching for the location using the geo api, but this seems a really awkward way of doing it and often returns bad results (I want results from Oxford, UK but often the geo search return Oxford, IN for example).
Looking around, it seems Twitter's geolocation is currently broken, but I really need this to work for a presentation on Thursday demonstrating an app we built in a group, and it would really suck if our main feature didn't work.
Twitter's search API is broken. It will not return some information which is available through the regular API.
Once you have found a Tweet, you can try looking it up directly using statuses/show
For example, calling one of my tweets:
https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/show.xml?id=202471009973051393&include_entities=true
gives
<geo>
<georss:point>51.52505194 -0.132582</georss:point>
</geo>
<coordinates>
<georss:point>51.52505194 -0.132582</georss:point>
</coordinates>
I'm gonna take my chance at asking a question here because I really cannot find the root cause of this problem.
I'm working on a WSS 3.0 site, using SPD 2007 and I'm fairly new to Sharepoint development in general.
I'm customizing the DispForm.aspx page. The page is a simple edit page but at the end, I add a custom list form web part for adding comments (which are stored in another list) and below, a dataview for viewing the comments associated to the item displayed by the DispForm.aspx page.
What i want to do resembles the functionality displayed on this page, I inspired myself from it and you can in fact see my comments as the latest one :
http://sharepoint.microsoft.com/blogs/GetThePoint/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=209
Everything was working, until I delete all the comments i had made as a test. Now all i get from my Custom List Form is this "unable to display this web part error".
I've had a look at the logs, I understand what it is complaining about but i have no clue on how to fix it or even understand why there is such an error to begin with.

we're talking about a "new item" form, so i don't understand why I'm getting an error on GetItemById. What is it trying to get and how do i fix it?
Finally, I haven't changed the CAML query created by SPD. I did make change to the Comments list such as renaming or deleting unused columns but i don't think it is the cause of the problem because deleting the custom list form and recreating it didn't fix the issue.
Any clues as to where or what I should be looking at? I'm fresh out of ideas.
Thanks.
In Sharepoint Designer, Open the DispForm that you inserted the "Comments" custom list form into.
In Code view, find the DataFormWebPart for the list.
Locate the line <SharePoint:SPDataSource runat="server" DataSourceMode="ListItem" and change the DataSourceMode to DataSourceMode="List"
Inside of the ParameterBindings, find <ParameterBinding Name="ListItemId"..... and change it to <ParameterBinding Name="ListItemId" Location="None" DefaultValue="0"/>
I have the wonderful jquery data tables currently loading data using ajax.
The code is pretty much the same as the example I took it from which can be found at: http://www.datatables.net/release-datatables/examples/server_side/pipeline.html
I found this the best example because it incoporates pagination, sorting and also the search box into the ajax requests. The search box allows you to type in key words and this triggers the ajax function which includes the search value as a $_GET var to the server script.
This is a small preview of my table with table tools etc. loaded.

As you can see the main focus here is the filament groups date range plugin which I have added. I have finished with this now, and have a fail safe for the duplicate event firing problem etc. its ready to go and just needs including in the ajax pipeline - which is where I have been stuck for the last day or so.
fnDataTablesPipeline appears to be just an interim and doesnt reference the search box at all, so I can't figure out how the search box is working, and I am unsure if this is the right place to go including my date range value (everything I have tried just leads me to a dead end)
I want to use my onChange event for the date range filter, and apply it exactly the same way that the search box works. When the value is changed, simply pass it as a get variable so that my php script can deal with it there. I have concerns regarding the paging, and I will probably need to just reset back to page one after the date is changed (not sure how I am going to deal with this just yet, but thats the next step)
I need help telling datatables to refresh from the ajax source, and include the date range as a get parameter to the server side script (like when the search box value changes)
- sounds straight forward, but this is where I am breaking down and not making good use of my time due to the lack of understanding.
Is there anyone that has implemented similar that can help me?
The biggest problem right now is how to force the refresh from my date range onChange event, and of course include the single string value which contains my dates (which I know how to cover server side)
Many Thanks,
Chris
EDIT: I actually managed to get this working before I finished for the day. I'll post my code when I get back in the office tomorrow, it was actually surprisingly easy - I was tackling it completely wrong.
After changing date..
oTable.fnClearTable(0);
oTable.fnDraw();
Include var in pipeline
function fnDataTablesPipeline ( sSource, aoData, fnCallback, dateRange ) {
aoData.push( { "name": "dateRange", "value": $('#dateRangePicker').val(), } );
...
Obtain var in php script
$_GET['dateRange']
I just created a GUI using guide in MATLAB for a small project I'm working on. I have amongst other things two text fields for from and to dates. Now I'd like to get rid of them and use a Java date select tool. Of course this is not possible using guide so I need to add them manually.
I've managed to get them to show up by putting this code into my Opening_Fcn,
uicomponent(handles, 'style','com.jidesoft.combobox.DateChooserPanel','tag','til2');
using UICOMPONENT.
But even though it shows up I can't access the date select's attributes, for example
get(handles.til2)
returns
??? Reference to non-existent field 'til2'.
How can I fix this?
Unless you edit the saved GUI figure, the basic handles structure will not include your new component by default.
One way to access you component is to store the handle via guidata, by adding the following to your opening function:
handles.til2 = uicomponent(handles, 'style','com.jidesoft.combobox.DateChooserPanel','tag','til2');
guidata(hObject,handles)
Functions that need to access the handle need the line
handles = guidata(hObject)
to return the full handles structure that includes the filed til2
