I have a DDL, on its change I load a partial view _GetX. Right now I am using it like this
#Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.XId, Model.XList, "Select", new { GetUrl = Url.Action("GetX", "Route") })
I need to load this partial view on clicking a button. How do I do this?
Assuming your GetX controller action already returns the partial view:
$(function() {
$('#someButton').click(function() {
// get the DDL. It would be better to add an id to it
var ddl = $('#XId');
// get the url from the ddl
var url = ddl.attr('GetUrl');
// get the selected value of the ddl to send it to the action as well
var selectedValue = ddl.val();
// send an AJAX request to the controller action passing the currently
// selected value of the DDL and store the results into
// some content placeholder
$('#somePlaceholder').load(url, { value: selectedValue });
return false;
});
});

I am working with the latest Tianium Appcelerator and my project is using Alloy.
I have a TableView with the id: tblResults
In my controller, I populate this table view with rows like this:
// Dummy data
var results = [];
results.push({
title: 'Hello World',
value: '123456'
});
results.push({
title: 'Bye World',
value: '654321'
});
// Build result data
var resultData = [];
for (var i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
resultData.push(createResultRow(
results[i].title,
results[i].value
));
}
// Method to create result row
function createResultRow(myTitle, myValue) {
var tableRow = Titanium.UI.createTableViewRow({
height: 160
id: 'row-'+ myValue
});
var tableRowView = Titanium.UI.createView({
layout: 'horizontal'
});
var myButton = Titanium.UI.createButton({
title: myTitle,
btnValue: myValue
});
myButton.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
handleButtonClick(e);
});
tableRowView.add(myButton);
tableRow.add(tableRowView);
return tableRow;
}
// Set table data
$.tblResults.setData(resultData);
// Method to handle button click
function handleButtonClick(e) {
if (e.source && e.source.btnValue) {
// how to select row having a id: 'row-'+ e.source.btnValue ???
}
}
What this will do is, generate a dummy array of objects. Then using that, populate the table view with row that has a view, within it there is a button.
What I am trying to achieve is, when the button is clicked, I want to select the table row having the id like this:
'row-'+ e.source.btnValue
in pure javascript/jquery DOM style, I would have done something like this:
$('#row-'+ e.source.btnValue)
How can I achieve this in Titanium Appcelerator? Is there a element selector functionality of some sort like in jQuery?
This is a very often requested feature that we don't currently support, but should. Right now, you'd have to keep a hash of id -> view reference and look it up that way. However, I opened a Feature Request here https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/TIMOB-20286
If you have a select method on rows, you can do like this:
$.table.addEventListener('click',function(e) {
if(e.row.select) e.row.select();
//or
if(rows[e.index]) rows[e.index].select();
});
For tables and lists views always use the click and itemclick event on the table/list. These events provide you with both the selected row (e.row) as well as the actual view clicked upon (e.source). It is also more efficient then having a listener on the buttons of all rows.
Your code would look like:
$.tblResults.addEventListener('click', handleButtonClick); // or bind in XML
// Method to handle button click
function handleButtonClick(e) {
// user tapped on button
if (e.source.btnValue) {
var row = e.row;
}
}
I am trying to a simple kendo ui form with 'Save' and 'Cancel' buttons. I am using the Kendo.Observable to bind the data to the form.
The functionality I am trying to achieve is, if the 'Save' button is clicked, the form data will be saved. Else, if 'Cancel' is clicked the form will come back to read-only mode with the previous data that was present. To do this, I am first saving the model data in a 'originalvalue' property on click of Update button. If 'Cancel' is clicked, the 'fields' model data is restored to the 'originalvalue'. But the issue is that the , 'originalvalue' does not contain the original value. It gets updated when the user is editing during 'Save'.
The question is - how do I retain the original model data so that it can be refreshed on cancel?
Please find below the code. Appreciate your help, thanks.
<script type="text/javascript">
var viewModel = kendo.observable ({
updated: false,
originalvalue: {},
update: function(e) {
var original = this.get("fields");
this.set("originalvalue", original);
this.set("updated", true);
},
save: function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
if (validator.validate()) {
// make an ajax call to save this data
this.set("updated", false);
}
},
cancel: function(e) {
var original = this.get("originalvalue");
validator.destroy();
this.set("fields", original);
this.set("updated", false);
},
fields: {}
});
viewModel.set("fields", formArray);
kendo.bind($("#outerForm"), viewModel);
// prepare the validator
var validator = $("#outerForm").kendoValidator().data("kendoValidator");
I had to make the exact thing on a form I am currently developing. I am using a DataSource object for the data so I had to use cancelChange().
The thing I did there:
1. I made a Datasource with a schema:
... schema: {
model: {id: "id"}}
...
2. I got the object I was editing with the mapped id:
clientDataSource.cancelChanges(clientDataSource.get(this.get("contactID")));
where the ContactID is created in a setData function where I have passed the ID:
this.set("contactID", contactID);
As I may have notices and understood, you have another problem here where you arent using a DataSource but rather data for fields?
The problem here is that your originalValue is inside the Observable object and it is referenced to the variable original and thus it has observable properties. You should have the variable originalValue defined outside the observable object:
var originalValue;
var viewModel = kendo.observable ({ ...
And you should send the formArray also to that variable so you will have the defaults load before even the observable object is loaded such as:
originalValue = formArray;
viewModel.set("fields", formArray);
So when you need to cancel it you should have:
cancel: function(e) {
var original = originalValue;
validator.destroy();
this.set("fields", original);
this.set("updated", false);
},
I havent tested it but it should provide you some guidance on how to solve that problem.
On click of a #dtDelete button I am opening an ajax modal in bootstrap 3. I am also passing a parameter, selected, along with it and using $_GET on the php page to retrieve it.
As the value of selected may or may not be extremely large I think I should avoid passing the value this way / using $_GET.
How the heck can I pass values other than this method? Due to the nature of opening the modal (loading it then showing it) I am stuck on any other ways.
$('#dtDelete').on('click', function () {
//open the modal with selected parameter attached
$('#modal-ajax').load('/modals/m_keystroke_delete.php?selected='+selected);
$('#modal-ajax').modal('show');
});
Pass a data object as a second param to load for it to make a POST request.
$('#dtDelete').on('click', function () {
var data = { 'propertyA': 'extremely large data' };
//open the modal with selected parameter attached
$('#modal-ajax').load(
'/modals/m_keystroke_delete.php?selected=' + selected, // url
data, // data
function(responseText, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest) { } // complete callback
);
$('#modal-ajax').modal('show');
});
You can even pass your "selected" param through the POST request and use $_POST or even $_REQUEST to retrieve the data. Also notice that the modal now shows once the request has completed.
$('#dtDelete').on('click', function () {
var data = {
'selected': selected
'largeData': '...'
};
$('#modal-ajax').load(
'/modals/m_keystroke_delete.php',
data,
function() {
// Invoke the delete-function
deleteComp();
// Show the modal
$(this).modal('show');
}
);
});
I have both TreeView and Grid on the same page and I need to populate the TreeView from the grid data. So the flow is like this:
User selects a something from a dropdown and clicks on a button -> web service call -> populate the grid with data from web service -> populate TreeView with some massage of the grid data
The logic to populate TreeView is currently in the grid.dataSource.fetch() method like this:
// this function is called when user clicks on the button
function getData() {
grid.dataSource.read();
grid.dataSource.page(1);
grid.dataSource.fetch(function () {
var data = this.data();
... // logic to massage the data to populate TreeView
...
}
}
However, if the user selects another thing from the dropdown and clicks on the button again, this.data() seems to have the old data (fromt the 1st time), as a result, TreeView is populated with old data.
Which is the right event/method other than fetch() I should use to put my logic in?
I think you should use kendoGrid's dataBound event.
http://docs.kendoui.com/api/web/grid#events-dataBound.
Here is the sample code for kendoGrid dataBound event handler:
function Grid_DataBound(e) {
console.log("Grid_DataBound", e);
var grid = e.sender;
var dataItems = grid.dataSource.view();
console.log(dataItems);
var treeData = new Array();
for (var i = 0; i < dataItems.length; i++) {
treeData.push({
OrderId: dataItems[i].OrderID,
ShipName: dataItems[i].ShipName
});
}
var dataSource = new kendo.data.HierarchicalDataSource({
data: treeData,
schema: {
model: {
id: "OrderId"
}
}
});
$("#treeview").data("kendoTreeView").setDataSource(dataSource);
}
Let me know if you need full sample code.
I am writing a MVC3 project. Right now I have a table which has column with Data as actionLinks as:
<td style="color: Black; background-color: Bisque; text-align: center; width: 410px">
#Html.ActionLink(#item.LookUp_NameString, "EditPartial", "Capitation", new { id = item.CAPITATION_RATE_ID }, new { #class = "actionLink" })
</td>
EditPartial as the name suggests is a partial view, which I need to be opened as a pop-up menu so that user can edit the details of the object, save it and we can come back to original page.
I have tried the render partial, but can't get it to pass the id value dynamically.
This is for edit functionality of my grid. What will be the best way to implement this?
If you want to open the result of EditPartial Action method in a model popup, you need some model popup code for that.
jQuery UI is one option. http://jqueryui.com/demos/dialog/
1) Include jQuery UI reference in your page,
2) Add the below script to your page which will convert your normal link to a model popup
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){
$(".actionLink").click(function (e) {
var url = this.href;
var dialog = $("#dialog");
if ($("#dialog").length == 0) {
dialog = $('<div id="dialog" style="display:hidden"></div>').appendTo('body');
}
dialog.load(
url,
{}, // omit this param object to issue a GET request instead a POST request, otherwise you may provide post parameters within the object
function (responseText, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest) {
dialog.dialog({
close: function (event, ui) {
dialog.remove();
},
modal: true,
width: 460, resizable: false
});
}
);
return false;
});
});
</script>
From your action result, you can return whatever markup you want to show in the Model popup. Mostly you will be returning a View. If you want to show a partial View,If it is an ajax request and show the normal view if it is a normal request, you can check the Request.IsAjaxRequest method to do that.
public ActionResult EditPartial(int id)
{
CustomerViewModel objCustomer=GetCustomer(id);
if(Request.IsAjaxRequest())
{
return View("Partial/Edit",objCustomer);
}
return View(objCustomer);
}
Assuming you have 2 views present to show your normal page and partial page (for model popup)
I prefer to name my action method as Edit instead of EditPartial, because it is handling both requests (ajax and normal)
