I'm working in mvc3 and did this thing to change the language by url address (it work great):
var urlString = window.location.host; //the url with localhost:XXX only -and if it changes it will adjust itself
var Lang = $(this)[0].value; //en or fr
window.location = "http://" + urlString + "/" + Lang;
but now I have a serious problem: window.location - refreshes the page, and the $(this)[0].value - returns to be as the beginning. for example if I change the combobox from "english" to "french", the language does change to french (coz the url isnt refreshed), but in the combobox, the selected field is "english" again and I cant change it because all the page is refreshed.
so...is anybody can tell me what to do??
thank in advance.
In your controller, I guess you're passing in the language as a parameter, set the selected value of your dropdown to the language passed in so that when the page is loaded the value is set and the correct item is selected.
If this is a refresh it is a complete reload of the page so you need to save state. Either investigate html 5's local storage (limited browser support)
http://www.w3schools.com/html5/html5_webstorage.asp
or when its selected save it in a preference cookie in javascript.
The code is already mostly written for you here - you'll just need to read it on page load and save it when the combo box changes.
Javascript remember combobox value

I have an view that extends the current project view, where we add multiple tabs (notebook pages) to show information from other parts of a project.
One of these pages is an overview page that summarizes what is under the other tabs, and I'd like to link the headlines for each section directly to each displayed page. I've currently solved this by using the index of each tab and calling bootstrap's .tab('show') method on the link within the tab:
$(".overview-link").click(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var sel = '.nav-tabs a:eq(' + $(this).data('tab-index') + ')';
$(sel).tab('show');
});
This works since I've attached a data-tab-index="<int>" to each header link in my widget code, but it's brittle - if someone adds a tab later, the current indices will be broken. Earlier I relied on the anchor on each tab, but that broke as well (and would probably break if a new notebook page were inserted as well).
Triggering a web client redirect / form link directly works, but I want to show a specific page in the view:
this.do_action({
type: 'ir.actions.act_window',
res_model: 'my.model.name',
res_id: 'my.object.id',
view_mode: 'form',
view_type: 'form',
views: [[false, 'form']],
target: 'current'
});
Is there any way to link / redirect the web client directly to a specific notebook page tab through the do_action method or similar on FormWidget?
If I understood well you want to select the tab from the JavaScript (jQuery) FormWidget taking into account that the id could change if anybody install another module that adds another tab

You can add a class to the page in the xml form view. You can use the id of the element selected by this class name in order to call the right anchor and select the right tab item. This should happen when the page is completely loaded:
<page class="nb_page_to_select">
$('a[href=#' + $('.nb_page_to_select').attr('id') + ']').click()
NOTE: As you have said the following paragrah I assume that you know where to run this instruction. The solution I suggest is independent of the index.

When the page is loaded you can get the tab list DOM object like this:
var tablist = $('ul[role="tablist"]')
And then you can click on the specifict tab, selecing by the text inside the anchor. So you don't depend on the tab index:
tablist.find('a:contains("Other Information")').click()
I think if you have two tabs with the same text does not make any sense, so this should be sufficient.
Solution 2
Even if you want to be more specific you can add a class to the notebook to make sure you are in the correct notebook
<notebook class="nt_to_change">
Now you can use one of this expressions in order to select the tab list
var tablist = $('div.nt_to_change ul.nav-tabs[role="tablist"]')
// or
var tablist = $('div.nt_to_change ul[role="tablist"]')
Solution 3
If the contains selector doesn't convince you because it should be equal you can do this as well to compare and filter
tablist.find('a').filter(function() {
return $.trim($(this).text()) === "Other Information";
}).click();
Where "Other Information" is the string of the notebook page
I didn't tried the solution I'm giving to you, but if it doesn't work at least may be it makes you come up with some idea.
There's a parameter for XML elements named autofocus (for buttons and fields is default_focus and takes 1 or 0 as value). If you add autofocus="autofocus" to a page in XML, this page will be the displayed one when you open the view.
So, you can try to add this through JavaScript, when the user clicks on the respective link -which honestly, I don't know how to achieve that by now-. But you can add a distinctive context parameter to each link in XML, for example context="{'page_to_display': 'page x'}". When you click on the link, I hope these context keys will arrive to your JS method.
If not, you can also modify the fields_view_get method (here I wrote how to do that: Odoo - Hide button for specific user) to check if you get the context you've added to your links and add the autofocus parameter to the respective page.
As you said:
This works since I've attached a data-tab-index="" to each header
link in my widget code, but it's brittle - if someone adds a tab
later, the current indices will be broken.
I assume that your app allow multi-user interaction in realtime, so you have to integrate somewhere in your code, an update part function.
This function will trig if something has changed and cleanout the data to rebuilt the index in order to avoid that the current indices will be broken.
I am working on testcomplete automation tool. I want to know how can I store current URL in a variable for validation. Example,
I click a link that takes me to a particular page. I want to validate against the URL of that page. how can I do that?
You can use the URL property of the Page object. Information on this property along with a script sample can be found in this document:
URL Property (Page Objects)
If it's not opening in a tab/window then this should work fine:
function PageSample()
{
Browsers.Item(btIExplorer).Run("http://smartbear.com/");
// Obtains the browser process
var browser = Sys.Browser("iexplore");
// Obtains the page currently opened in Internet Explorer
var page = browser.Page("*");
// Use the page object property and add a checkpoint to validate
…
}
I was wondering, if there is any way to set mangeto language for specific area from Code?
What i mean is lets say i want a custom page to be in Spanish while other pages in my website in English.
Set cookie onChange event of custom drop in following manner
$cookie = Mage::getSingleton('core/cookie');
$cookie->set('selectedlang', 'spanish' ,time()+86400,'/');
and then make a if else statement
if($cookie->get('selectedlang')=='spanish')
//Show your spanish content
else
//Show your default content
I've been working on a custom field, which contains a list.
I have to be able to edit the selected item on the list in a richtext editor. (this is the only missing part).
I've read the topic on opening from c# code Opening Rich Text Editor in custom field of Sitecore Content Editor .
This works nice for the "add" button, since i have to open the RTE empty(with default text...), but not for the Edit button.
My aproaches are:
Somehow in the Edit button's message field list:edit(id=$Target) pass the selected index (like list:edit(id=$Target,index=$SelectedIndex), but i don't know how to populate $SelectedIndex
Somehow in the overridden HandleMessage method get the list's selected index. I'm able to get the selected value Sitecore.Context.ClientPage.ClientRequest.Form[ID of list], but thats alone not much of a help, since i won't be able to decide which one to edit if two listitem equals.
Do the richtext editor opening and handling fully in javascript. As i saw at some script in content editor, i tried to do that, but i can't understand it clearly:
richtext editor url:
var page = "/sitecore/shell/Controls/Rich Text Editor/EditorPage.aspx";
some params :
var params = "?da=core&id&ed=" + id + "&vs=1&la=en&fld=" + id + "&so&di=0&hdl=H14074466&us=sitecore%5cadmin&mo";
and the part where i'm not sure:
var result = scForm.browser.showModalDialog(page + params, new Array(window), "dialogHeight:650px; dialogWidth:900px;");
This way the RTE opens as expected (i guess i could get the selected index from javascript and pass it as a parameter later). However when i click ok, i get exception from EditorPage.js saveRichText function: Cannot read property 'ownerDocument' of null. Am i missing some parameter?
Either of the three aproaches is fine for me(also i'm open for new better ones) as soon as i'm able to do it.
Thanks in advance!

I was able to enter some javascript into the message:
list:Edit(id=$Target,index='+document.getElementById(ID of the select using $Target ).selectedIndex+')
this way i got the index in HandleMessage.
I'm waiting for better solutions now.
I'm using ASP.NET MVC 3 and the helper #Html.Raw in my view.
I'm passing it some HTML markup that I have stored in a database. The markup contains some URLs that point to other places on my site. For example http://www.foo.fom/events. These data are forum posts, so the page they're displayed on has the form http://www.foo.com/forums/thread/42/slug.
However, when the page is rendered, the saved URLs are rendered in modified form as:
http://www.foo.com/forums/thread/42/events/
This only happens for URLs on my site. If the URL points to some external site, it is unchanged.
I have verified that what I'm passing into #Html.Raw is the correct URL (http://www.foo.com/events). Why is it getting changed as the page is rendered? Is there an easy way to disable this "feature"?
Here's my code for displaying the markup:
<div>
#Html.Raw(post.Body)
</div>
and here's the controller code that genrates the page data:
var post = _forumRepository.GetPostById(id)
var model = new ForumPostView()
{
Body = post.Body,
PostDate = post.DatePosted,
PostedBy = post.Author,
PostId = post.Id
};
return View(model);
I have verified via debugger that the exact URL in the post.Body before being passed back to the View is of the form "http://www.foo.com/events" (no trailing slash). I have also verified via debugger that the value is unchanged before it is passed into #Html.Raw.
It sounds like the urls that are pointing to other pages on your site are non-absolute. Are you certain they start with a / or http? If not, it's behaving exactly as it's supposed and treating them like relative urls -- and thus appending them to the current url.
(Html.Raw will not manipulate the string, so it's not at fault here)
Also, it wouldn't hurt to show us your code.
No, in fact I am an idiot. The URLs were indeed stored in relative form without a leading /, which is why they ended up being relative to the current page. The text displayed was absolute, which is what I saw when I looked at the db. That's what I get for debugging on a few hours' sleep ;)
