I have time field in my database:
Field('start_time','time')
which gets rendered as follows in my form:
<input type="text" value="" name="start_time" id="mytable_start_time" class="span4 time
hasTimeEntry" autocomplete="off">
This creates an input box which accepts a time such as:
12:05:39
For my use case seconds are unnecessary how can I remove seconds so the input is:
12:05
Furthermore I would like to specify time in 12-hour time with am/pm rather than 24-hour time.
web2py uses the jQuery Time Entry plugin -- you can learn about how to configure it here. The code for the plugin is included at the bottom of /static/js/calendar.js.
You can adjust the defaults by setting them after calendar.js has loaded. If you're using the standard layout.html, that would be right after the web2py_ajax.html include:
{{include 'web2py_ajax.html'}}
<script>
jQuery.timeEntry.setDefaults({show24Hours: false, showSeconds: false});
</script>
Didnt have the ability to post a comment but in layout.html (timesteps is optional but sure is nice and easy!)
{{include 'web2py_ajax.html'}}
<script>
jQuery.timeEntry.setDefaults({show24Hours: false, showSeconds: false, timeSteps: [1,30,1]});
</script>
And I believe if you dont want it globally just use this inside of your view instead of layout or create another layout and include that in your view instead of the default...

I'm new to alpineJS, so this might be a silly question. I try to increase an input field by 1, and submit the new value (preferably with a small delay).
I currently have:
<input type='button' value='+' class='qtyplus plus' field='quantity' x-on:click="qty++ && $event.target.form && $event.target.form.dispatchEvent(new Event('submit'));" />
This increases the value of the input form by 1, and submits the form. The problem is that the submitted value is the old value, and not the new one.
Any help with this is much appreciated!
The && operator in JavaScript is used to test conditions for true/false. You should instead use ; to put multiple commands in a single click. JavaScript does some unexpected conversions of values to true/false values. I'm surprised it works even partially. The mysteries of JavaScript! 😆
MDN has some good info on the && operator - called Logical AND
Here's your code sample with the change. I also made a couple of other changes using Alpine JS features:
debounce might be useful for you as it tells Alpine JS to wait until the user has stopped clicking before it executes the click code - which means your server won't have to process so many requests.
x-ref can be used instead of $event.target.form (not useful for you I think, but might be useful for others reading this question)
Form elements have a submit() method you can use. MDN has good info on this as well.
<form x-ref="myform">
<input
type='button'
value='+'
class='qtyplus plus'
field='quantity'
#click.debounce="qty++; refs.myform.submit()" />
</form>
After some more debugging I found the solution by using two on-click events, one that works directly and one that is delayed. This solved the issue for me.
<input type='button' value='-' class='qtyminus minus' field='quantity'
x-on:click="qty--;" #click.debounce.2000ms="$event.target.form.submit();"/>
Is it possible to know where an image has been dropped?
Assume we have a checkerboard with different divs
<div id="jquery-wrapped-fine-uploader"></div>
<div id="checkerboard">
<div id="A1" class="ffup"></div>
<div id="A2" class="ffup"></div>
<div id="A3" class="ffup"></div>
<div id="A4" class="ffup"></div>
......
</div>
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#jquery-wrapped-fine-uploader').fineUploader({
request: {
endpoint: 'endpoint.php'
},
dragAndDrop: {
extraDropzones: [$('.ffup')]
}
});
});
</script>
First of all, your code will only designate the first ffup div (A1) as it currently stands. You will need to pass a selector for each individual drop zone into your extraDropzones array. The jQuery wrapper will only pass the first element covered by your jQuery selector to the library. Ideally, it would pass along all items represented by the selector, but, to do this, it would have to be aware of the intended type of the parameter. The jQuery wrapper must convert all jQuery objects to HTMLElements before passing the data on to Fine Uploader's core code (which is not aware of jQuery). This is something I'd like to look into more in the future, but this is the way it has worked since 3.0. Note that this limitation does NOT apply to the target of a Fine Uploader plug-in instance, i.e. $(".myTarget").fineUploader(...).
As to your question, Fine Uploader does not currently pass any information along to callbacks that would allow you to determine which drop zone received an associated file. This is an interesting feature, and I can see how it may be useful. Please open up a feature request in the issue tracker so we can discuss and prioritize this for a future release.
Is there a way to make input text inside a link tag works well in IE8? I cannot place the caret inside nor select the text within it.
<input type="text">
I think the reason why I'm trying to do this is not important here, just consider I have no choice of make it work under an <a> tag. I only have control over what's inside the <a> tag.
As a solution, I was thinking about some JQuery DOM manipulation when in IE8 mode but there must be a easier/cleaner way of fixing this "bug".
Thanks
I think this is due to the input and link tag display properties, while an input is display:inline-block; your link is display:inline;. Try to play with these properties and z-index if it's not working.
Hovever, i think jQuery solution is better, and simpler, except if this is your only usage of jQuery on your page.
HTML :
<input type="text" />
jQuery script
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
$("#myInputLink").click(function(){
// .trigger('focus') or .focus(), but the first one is better on my own
$(this).next('input[type="text"]').trigger('focus');
});
});
Have a nice day.
What code would I start with? I know onChange won't work with input=hidden. Would it be best to write something to re-name the hidden fields and then build it into the existing onchange for the dropdown?
Not 100% sure what you are wanting to do. I don't believe its possible to make a tag with <input type="hidden" show on the browser unless you change its type.
Just tested this at W3Schools and worked on Chrome
<input type="hidden" value="OK">
<p id="demo">Click the button below to set the type attribute of the button above.</p>
<button onclick="myFunction()">Try it</button>
<script type="text/javascript">
function myFunction()
{
document.getElementsByTagName("INPUT")[0].setAttribute("type","button");
};
</script>
<p>Internet Explorer 8 and earlier does not support the setAttribute method.</p>
Granted this code obviously states it won't work with IE8 or earlier and it would probably be better to set the id attribute for each of the hidden fields you want and probably use something like document.getElementById(IDVALUE).setAttribute("type", "text") Though this will allow the user to change the value in the tag.
Now all that is left is to give a dropdown with an onChange function that runs a statement like above based on what was selected.
I am using ckeditor on my website to make it easier for users to input HTML.
However, the data I get back from ckeditor is wrapped in <p></p> blocks. (Which I don't want.)
Is there some configuration setting that forces the editor to not wrap the text in anything?
Add the following to your config.js file for CKEditor:
config.enterMode = CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR;
Example:
...
CKEDITOR.editorConfig = function (config)
{
config.enterMode = CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR;
...
};
Details
The configuration setting that controls this behavior is based on what you want to happen when the user presses Enter.
Just in case someone who's new to working with HTML reads this, I'm including some basic explanation of the concepts involved and why a tag will need to be inserted when the Enter key is pressed.
We know that if we enter some text into an HTML document and then put additional text on a new line, the browser won't display the text as two lines, it will ignore any carriage returns and will condense multiple spaces between characters to a single space.
The following HTML:
qwer
tyui
Will be rendered as:
qwer tyui
So the editor needs to insert an HTML tag to tell the browser that it should display the second group of text on a new line.
The configuration setting that controls this is config.enterMode and it offers three options:
1 - Insert paragraph
The default setting creates a paragraph element each time Enter is pressed:
config.enterMode = CKEDITOR.ENTER_P; // inserts `<p>...</p>`
2 - Insert 'div'
You can choose to create a div element instead of a paragraph:
config.enterMode = CKEDITOR.ENTER_DIV; // inserts `<div></div>`
3 - Insert break (the setting you're looking for)
If you prefer to not wrap the text in anything, you can choose to insert a line break tag:
config.enterMode = CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR; // inserts `<br />`
The CKEditor documentation indicates that using the ENTER_BR setting is not recommended:
Note: It is recommended to use the CKEDITOR.ENTER_P setting because of its semantic value and correctness. The editor is optimized for this setting.
Another related setting 'autoParagraph'
There is a second setting that controls a similar situation –config.autoParagraph. How it functions depends on the config.enterMode setting discussed above.
autoParagraph determines whether inline elements such as span are wrapped in the block element (p or div) specified by the enterMode setting. The default is to wrap inline elements, so if you enter a span like this (as HTML):
<span>asdfg</span>
It will be wrapped in a p or div element like this:
<p><span>asdfg</span></p>
or this:
<div><span>asdfg</span></div>
The inline element won't be wrapped if you set this to false or if you set enterMode to CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR.
The CKEditor documentation includes this note about config.autoParagraph:
Note: Changing the default value might introduce unpredictable usability issues.
Even more settings
There are three more settings that are somewhat related to this subject:
config.fillEmptyBlocks
config.forceEnterMode
config.ignoreEmptyParagraph
Reference
A complete list of the available configuration options can be found here:
CKEDITOR.config - CKEditor 3 JavaScript API Documentation
CKEDITOR.config - CKEditor 4 Documentation
I know I'm a little late to the game, but I think the option the OP is looking for is:
config.autoParagraph = false;
This is answered perfectly well above, however as mentioned you should not really be changing this in the main config.
The correct way to do this is per .replace really.
i.e.
<form name="title" method="post" action="<?php echo htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);?>">
<textarea id="editor2" name="editor2" rows="300"><?php echo $editor2;?></textarea>
<textarea id="editor1" name="editor1" rows="1" cols="50" onfocus="this.value=''; this.onfocus=null;">Type Tab Title Here:</textarea>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
CKEDITOR.replace( 'editor2', {
enterMode: CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR,
on: {'instanceReady': function (evt) { evt.editor.execCommand('maximize'); }},
});
</script>
A very simple solution without any configuration change is to use
shift+enter for a line break <br>, and
just enter would cause a new paragraph.
Advantage is that you don't have to do any configuration changes. Plus, you have both.
If you want to exclude <p> tag and want only basic editing tool like Bold Italic superscript Subscript etc in Ckeditor then follow these steps:
I am 100% sure about this as I researched 36 Hours continuously :)
Step 1: Add this script in your PHP webpage
<script type="text/javascript">
CKEDITOR.replace( 'editor1', {
enterMode: CKEDITOR.ENTER_BR,
on: {'instanceReady': function (evt) { evt.editor.execCommand('');}},
});
</script>
Step 2: add id="editor2" and onfocus="this.value='';" in your textarea like this
<textarea id="editor2" name="AsYourWish" onfocus="this.value='';">
Step 3: Be sure that remove Class="ckeditor" from Textarea.
Step 4: Reload your webpage if not happened Delete Cache/History and Restart PC/laptop.
Step 5: Its Done :)
For Django-ckeditor add this config in your settings.py file:
ENTER_P = 1 # default
ENTER_BR = 2
ENTER_DIV = 3
CKEDITOR_CONFIGS = {
'default': {
'enterMode': ENTER_BR,
},
}
If anyone comes here with ckeditor 5, don't look for this option. They have removed it, I've spent days tyring to figure this out.
I'm afraid you're not going to like it, but enter mode BR is the root
of all evil. If we were able we'd removed it from CKEditor 4 long time
ago and we're definitely not going to implement it in CKEditor 5.
