Lightswitch provides a Logout button on the Home page by default, but I'd like to have the option to log out on other pages as well. Is it possible to place the logout button on multiple pages?
If you're working with the HTML client, this can easily be achieved by replacing the following line of code in the LightSwitch library's _determineButtons function: -
result.showLogOut = msls_shell.getHomeScreen() === navigationUnit.screen.details.getModel();
With the following line of code: -
result.showLogOut = true;
This function is located in Scripts\msls-?.?.?.js file and, in order for this type of library file change to be applied, you'll need to reference the un-minified version of the LightSwitch library by making the following change in your HTML client's default.htm file: -
<!--<script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/msls-?.?.?.min.js"></script>-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/msls-?.?.?.js"></script>
The question marks in the msls reference will need to mirror the version you're using e.g. msls-2.5.2.js (for Visual Studio 2013 Update 4).
The above approach will force the LogOut button to appear on every page. However, if you need more control over when the LogOut button appears, you could use the following alternative change in the _determineButtons function: -
result.showLogOut = window.msls.showLogOut;
Then, in the created method of each screen, set the msls.showLogOut property to true when you wish the button to appear and to false when you don't e.g.: -
myapp.BrowseContacts.created = function (screen) {
// Write code here.
msls.showLogOut = true;
};
You don't say what version or language. This is VB for VS2012, Lightswitch web application.
Add a button to the Screen Command Bar, call it Logout (you can choose an image for it in the Properties panel later if you want). Right click the button and select Edit Execute Code. Use the following:
Private Sub Logout_Execute()
Microsoft.LightSwitch.Threading.Dispatchers.Main.BeginInvoke(
Sub()
System.Windows.Browser.HtmlPage.Window.Navigate(New Uri("../LogOut.aspx", UriKind.Relative))
End Sub)
End Sub
Works for me.

I want to test a file download. It is made programmatically on click a button that uses this function:
export function downloadURI(uri, target) {
const link = document.createElement('a')
if (target) link.target = target
link.href = uri
link.click()
}
The problem is that when you do cy.click() on that button the new tab is opened and the tests fail. I am checking that the download is successful by asserting the loading modal is visible after clicking the button (while the file is being generated via an HTTP request) and is Not visible after the download was generated.
How can I prevent this tab from opening so that the tests do not fail?
This works for me:
cy.get('a').invoke('removeAttr', 'target').click()
From the official document it says that cypress does not support multiple tabs testing.
Also there is a recipe including 3 solutions about how to handle this.
Have a read and see if it can help.
I have a webview inside my application and when an external link is clicked (that in normal browser is open in a new tab), I can't then go back to my website.
It is possible when a new tab is open to have the menu closed that tab like Gmail do ?
The objective is that, whenever a link is clicked, the user would have the choice to choose which option to view the content with, e.g. Clicking a link would suggest open youtube app or google chrome. The purpose is to appear the google chrome option
Or what suggestions do you have to handle this situation ?
If I understood you correctly, you want to have the option to select how to open the web link - inside your app, or within another app's (browser) context.
If this is correct, then you can use Xamarin.Essentials: Browser functionality.
public async Task OpenBrowser(Uri uri)
{
await Browser.OpenAsync(uri, BrowserLaunchMode.SystemPreferred);
}
Here the important property is the BrowserLaunchMode flag, which you can learn more about here
Basically, you have 2 options - External & SystemPreferred.
The first one is clear, I think - it will open the link in an external browser.
The second options takes advantage of Android's Chrome Custom Tabs & for iOS - SFSafariViewController
P.S. You can also customise the PreferredToolbarColor, TitleMode, etc.
Edit: Based from your feedback in the comments, you want to control how to open href links from your website.
If I understood correctly, you want the first time that you open your site, to not have the nav bar at the top, and after that to have it. Unfortunately, this is not possible.
You can have the opposite behaviour achieved - the first time that you open a website, to have the nav bar and if the user clicks on any link, to open it externally (inside a browser). You have 2 options for this:
To do it from your website - change the a tag's target to be _blank like this;
To do it from your mobile app - create a Custom renderer for the WebView. In the Android project's renderer implementation, change the Control's WebViewClient like so:
public class CustomWebViewClient : WebViewClient
{
public override bool ShouldOverrideUrlLoading(Android.Webkit.WebView view, IWebResourceRequest request)
{
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ActionView, request.Url);
CrossCurrentActivity.Current.StartActivity(intent);
return true;
}
}
I have a big problem with Internet Explorer 7 and 8.
SITUATION:
I have a FORM that build a Medical Prescription. When I hit the save button, the script saves the DomainObject on DB and set a boolean property (of panel where the form is added) called "saved" to true and a byte[] property called PDF with bytestream.
On RenderHead of Panel, I read this boolean and, if is true, I force the trigger of a hidden button with this code:
String js = "$('#" + printPDF.getMarkupId() + "').click();";
response.renderOnDomReadyJavaScript(js);
The button executes this code:
ResourceStreamRequestHandler handler = new ResourceStreamRequestHandler(new ByteArrayResourceStream(pdf, "application/pdf"));
handler.setFileName("foo.pdf");
RequestCycle.get().scheduleRequestHandlerAfterCurrent(handler);
This code work perfecly on FF and Chrome. The Browser download windows appears and the user can save the PDF on HD.
Unfortunally, Internet Explorer has that damn security behavior that is triggered when a site require something to download. That warning require a user validation. A yellow Bar appear and the user is force to hit "Download".

When I hit Download File, the form is submitted again with the exact state I had when I hit save the first time. So no previous INSERT on DB is already committed; The Session is resetted to the previous state etc...
The result is a double INSERT on DB of the Domain Ojbect.
Any clue to resolve this?
The problem is that you click download link programaticly instead to redirect browser to an URL or open an URL by JS window.open(url). Click a link looks like an unwanted operation that is sometimes restricted by browser.
I'd like to extend my WatiN automated tests to drive a page that guards against the user accidentally leaving the page without saving changes.
The page uses the "beforeunload" technique to seek confirmation from the user:
$(window).bind('beforeunload', function (event) {
if (confirmationRequired) {
return "Sure??";
}
});
My WatIn test is driving the page using IE. I cannot find a way to get WatIn to attach to the popup dialog so I can control it from my test.
All the following have failed (where the hard-coded strings refer to strings that I can see on the popup):
Browser.AttachTo<IE>(Find.ByTitle("Windows Internet Explorer");
browser.HtmlDialog(Find.FindByTitle("Windows Internet Explorer));
browser.HtmlDialog(Find.FindByTitle("Are you sure you want to leave this page?));
browser.HtmlDialog(Find.FindFirst());
Thanks!
You'll need to create and add the dialog handler.
Example Go to example site, click link, click leave page on confirmation dialog:
IE browser = new IE();
browser.GoTo("http://samples.msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/samples/author/dhtml/refs/onbeforeunload.htm");
WatiN.Core.DialogHandlers.ReturnDialogHandlerIe9 myHandler = new WatiN.Core.DialogHandlers.ReturnDialogHandlerIe9();
browser.AddDialogHandler(myHandler);
browser.Link(Find.ByUrl("http://www.microsoft.com")).ClickNoWait();
myHandler.WaitUntilExists();
myHandler.OKButton.Click();
browser.RemoveDialogHandler(myHandler);
The above is working on WatiN2.1, IE9, Win7. If using IE8 or before, you will likely need to use the ReturnDialogHandler object instead of the Ie9 specific handler
I am trying to use jQuery load() function to get content from another page via AJAX. It works on Firefox, Google Chrome, but not in Internet Explorer 7 & 8.
Here is the page I am developing: http://139.82.74.22/70anos/no-tempo
All the jQuery code is working normally in Internet Explorer, but the specific part that should bring the destination page isn't. To understand the problem, one must click the "Há 80 anos" or "Há 70 anos" block and click any of the links inside it. It should open a panel underneath the timeline with the content of the block.
Here is the code that pulls the external content:
jQuery('a.link-evento').click(function() {
var strUrl = jQuery(this).attr('href');
var objBlocoConteudo = jQuery(this).parents('div.view-content').next().find('div.conteudo-evento')
objBlocoConteudo.css('display','block').animate({ opacity: 1}, {duration: 350}).load(strUrl + ' #area-conteudo-evento');
return false;
});
With this code I am grabbing the URL of the destination page and telling the browser not to do a normal request, but to open it using jQuery load() function.
Any help appreciated fixing this IE... Thank you.
I'm pretty sure AJAX requests have to be made to a domain name in IE as a security precaution. If you map a domain to your 139.82.74.22 address your problem should go away.
You cant make an .Load(http://139.82.74.22/..), it would have to be .Load("http://mysite.com/mypage")
