Failure to trap dijit.Tree "onclick" - treeview

I've read several examples of handling onClick for dijit.Tree.. in particular this one seems to tell me all I need: dojo how to override dijit class method
However, for some reason my handler gets called when my page first loads, and never when I click on a tree node?
Here's the code:
<div dojoType="dijit.layout.ContentPane" title="Published Blueprints" minSize="20" style="width: 300px;" id="leftAccordion" region="leading" splitter="true">
<div id="blueprintTree" dojoType="dijit.Tree" store="" query="" label="Blueprints" openOnClick="false">
</div>
</div>
...and I then do this...
dojo.ready(function() {
var tree = dijit.byId("blueprintTree");
tree.connect(tree, "onClick", function(item) {
// my code here...
});
});
... the "my code here" part gets invoked when I start (in debug) my jsp, but never when i lock around on nodes...
Obviously I'm missing something simple?

Is it required to put the connect inside the dojo.ready()? Maybe that is why it is called on startup?
Looking at the dijit.Tree source, I saw that the onClick had two args
This is what I used in my case to successfully capture onClicks:
In the Tree constructor add openOnClick: false:
var tree = new dijit.Tree( {
model: myModel,
openOnClick: false,
etc...
Then in the same function where I create the tree using the programmatic approach
dojo.connect( tree,"onClick", function(/*dojo.data*/ item, /*TreeNode*/ nodeWidget){
//my code
});

Mixing Alpine.js with 'static' serverside markup, while getting the benefits of binding, etc

I'm new to Alpine and struggling to wrap my head around how to make a scenario like this work:
Let's say I have a serverside built page, that contains some buttons, that represent newsletters, the user can sign up to.
The user might have signed up to some, and we need to indicate that as well, by adding a css-class, .i.e is-signed-up.
The initial serverside markup could be something like this:
<button id='newsletter-1' class='newsletter-signup'>Newsletter 1</button>
<div>some content here...</div>
<button id='newsletter-2' class='newsletter-signup'>Newsletter 2</button>
<div>more content here...</div>
<button id='newsletter-3' class='newsletter-signup'>Newsletter 3</button>
<div>and here...</div>
<button id='newsletter-4' class='newsletter-signup'>Newsletter 4</button>
(When all has loaded, the <button>'s should later allow the user to subscribe or unsubscribe to a newsletter directly, by clicking on one of the buttons, which should toggle the is-signed-up css-class accordingly.)
Anyway, then I fetch some json from an endpoint, that could look like this:
{"newsletters":[
{"newsletter":"newsletter-1"},
{"newsletter":"newsletter-2"},
{"newsletter":"newsletter-4"}
]}
I guess it could look something like this also:
{"newsletters":["newsletter-1", "newsletter-2", "newsletter-4"]}
Or some other structure, but the situation would be, that the user have signed up to newsletter 1, 2 and 4, but not newsletter 3, and we don't know that, until we get the JSON from the endpoint.
(But maybe the first variation is easier to map to a model, I guess...)
Anyway, I would like to do three things:
Make Alpine get the relation between the model and the dom elements with the specific newsletter id (i.e. 'newsletter-2') - even if that exact id doesn't exist in the model.
If the user has signed up to a newsletter, add the is-signed-up css-class to the corresponding <button> to show its status to the user.
Bind to each newsletter-button, so all of them – not just the ones, the user has signed up to – listens for a 'click' and update the model accordingly.
I have a notion, that I might need to 'prepare' each newsletter-button beforehand with some Alpine-attributes, like 'x-model='newsletter-2', but I'm still unsure how to bind them together when Alpine has initialising, and I have the data from the endpoint,
How do I go about something like this?
Many thanks in advance! 😊
So our basic task here is to add/remove a specific item to/from a list on a button click. Here I defined two component: the newsletter component using Alpine.data() creates the data (subs array), provides the toggling method (toggle_subscription(which)) and the checking method (is_subscribed(which)) that we can use to set the correct CSS class to a button. It also handles the data fetching in the init() method that executes automatically after the component is initialized. I have also created a save method that we can use to send the subscription list back to the backend.
The second component, subButton with Alpine.bind() is just to make the HTML code more compact and readable. (We can put each attribute from this directly to the buttons.) So on click event it calls the toggle_subscription with the current newsletter's key as the argument to add/remove it. Additionally it binds the bg-red CSS class to the button if the current newsletter is in the list. For that we use the is_subscribed method defined in our main component.
.bg-red {
background-color: Tomato;
}
<script src="https://unpkg.com/alpinejs#3.x.x/dist/cdn.min.js" defer></script>
<div x-data="newsletter">
<button x-bind="subButton('newsletter-1')">Newsletter 1</button>
<button x-bind="subButton('newsletter-2')">Newsletter 2</button>
<button x-bind="subButton('newsletter-3')">Newsletter 3</button>
<button x-bind="subButton('newsletter-4')">Newsletter 4</button>
<div>
<button #click="save">Save</button>
</div>
</div>
<script>
document.addEventListener('alpine:init', () => {
Alpine.data('newsletter', () => ({
subs: [],
init() {
// Fetch list of subscribed newsletters from backend
this.subs = ['newsletter-1', 'newsletter-2', 'newsletter-4']
},
toggle_subscription(which) {
if (this.subs.includes(which)) {
this.subs = this.subs.filter(item => item !== which)
}
else {
this.subs.push(which)
}
},
is_subscribed(which) {
return this.subs.includes(which)
},
save() {
// Send this.sub to the backend to save active state.
}
}))
Alpine.bind('subButton', (key) => ({
'#click'() {
this.toggle_subscription(key)
},
':class'() {
return this.is_subscribed(key) && 'bg-red'
}
}))
})
</script>

How to determine view is backed in Kendo Mobile?

Is there any way to know that view is open by back?
For example
<div data-role="view" id="view-test" data-show="show">
<!-- View content -->
</div>
<script>
var show = function(e){
if(e.view.isBack())
{
console.log("Back")
// do something
}
}
</script>
Is there any method or property like e.view.isBack() ?
There are many ways to handle this, maybe you can use a global variable where you keep the last visited page or even you can add a back button handler and get the view from which the back button was pressed. Another solution would be to pass a parameter along with page navigation when going back, for example:
<a data-role="button" href="#foo?back=true">Link to FOO with back parameter set to true</a>
And on the visited page on show event you can get the parameter like this:
function fooShow(e) {
e.view.params // {back: "true"}
}
Now depending on what the parameter value is you can detect if the back button was pressed or not before reaching the page.

Ember event in one view update another?

I have a small extract from my Ember app here. My page contains a number of views each containing different data each with their own controllers.
I want a search field (in index view) to go in one view which should "talk" to the stationList controller to update the content of the stationList view. This doesn't work. I get an error: TypeError: this.get(...).search is not a function
The logging outputs the name of the contoller I've asked it to use: App.StationListController
I added a second search form inside on the StationList View. This one works just fine. The logging this time outputs a dump of the StationListController object. So I am guessing that the other search form, despite my code (in SearchFormView): controllerBinding : 'App.StationListController', is not correctly setting the controller.
So I guess my question is why not?
How can I route the change on the form field in the one view to call a funciton on another view's controller?
Here's my code:
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="application">
{{outlet}}
</script>
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="index">
<div id="searchForm">search form view search:
{{#view App.SearchFormView}}
{{view App.StationSearchField}}
{{/view}}
</div>
<div id="stationList">{{render stationList}}</div>
</script>
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="stationList">
station list view search: {{view App.StationSearchField}}
<ul>
<li>List</li>
<li>will</li>
<li>go</li>
<li>here</li>
</ul>
{{searchTerm}}
</script>
And
App = Ember.Application.create({})
App.SearchFormView = Ember.View.extend({
init : function()
{
console.log("SearchFormView init", this.get('controller'))
}
})
App.StationSearchField = Ember.TextField.extend({
keyUp: function(event) {
var searchTerm = this.value
console.log("value",searchTerm,this.get('controller'))
this.get('controller').search(searchTerm)
}
})
App.StationListController = Ember.ArrayController.extend({
content : [],
searchTerm : null,
search : function(term)
{
this.set("searchTerm",term)
console.log("searching",term)
}
});
Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/ianbale/8QbrK/14/
I think the controllerBinding stuff is from the older version, I don't think that works anymore.
You can use controllerFor on get('controller') in the StationSearchField.
this.get('controller').controllerFor('station_list').search(searchTerm)
But controllerFor is deprecated and may be removed. Depending on your application structure you use needs on the controller.
Another way which I am using, is to send a custom event from the View, which the Route then sends to the corresponding controller.
App.IndexRoute = Ember.Route.extend({
events: {
search: function(term) {
controller = this.controllerFor('station_list')
controller.search(term);
}
}
});
and dispatch a search event from view like so.
this.get('controller').send('search', searchTerm);
The advantage of this method is you dispatch the same event from multiple places and it would get handled in the same way.
Here's the updated jsfiddle.

How can I change the style of a div on return from a form submit action in Razor MVC3?

I have a Razor/ASP/MVC3 web application with a form and a Submit button, which results in some action on the server and then posts back to the form. There is often some delay, and it's important that users know they should wait for it to complete and confirm before closing the page or doing other things on the site, because it seems users are doing that and sometimes their work has not been processed when they assume it has.
So, I added a "Saving, Please Wait..." spinner in a hidden Div that becomes visible when they press the Submit button, which works very nicely, but I haven't been able to find a way to get the Div re-hidden when the action is complete.
My spinner Div is:
<div id="hahuloading" runat="server">
<div id="hahuloadingcontent">
<p id="hahuloadingspinner">
Saving, Please Wait...<br />
<img src="../../Content/Images/progSpin.gif" />
</p>
</div>
</div>
Its CSS is:
#hahuloading
{
display:none;
background:rgba(255,255,255,0.8);
z-index:1000;
}
I get the "please wait" spinner to appear in a JS method for the visible button, which calls the actual submit button like this:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#submitVisibleButton").click(function () {
$(this).prop('disabled', true);
$("#myUserMessage").html("Saving...");
$("#myUserMessage").show();
$("#hahuloading").show();
document.getElementById("submitHiddenButton").click();
});
});
And my view model code gets called, does things, and returns a string which sets the usermessage content which shows up fine, but when I tried doing some code in examples I saw such as:
// Re-hide the spinner:
Response.write (hahuloading.Attributes.Add("style", "visibility:hiddden"));
It tells me "hahuloading does not exist in the current context".
Is there some way I am supposed to define a variable in the view model which will correspond to the Div in a way that I can set its visibility back from the server's action handler?
Or, can I make the div display conditional on some value, in a way that will work when the page returns from the action?
Or, in any way, could anyone help me figure out how to get my div re-hidden after the server action completes?
Thanks!
Is this done with ajax? I would assume so because the page is not being redirected. Try this:
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#submitVisibleButton").click(function () {
$(this).prop('disabled', true);
$("#myUserMessage").html("Saving...");
$("#myUserMessage").show();
$("#hahuloading").show();
document.getElementById("submitHiddenButton").click();
});
$("#hahuloading").ajaxStop(function () {
$(this).hide();
});
});
As an aside, you no longer need runat=server.

Create google suggest effect with asp.net mvc and jquery

What I want to achieve, is not the autocomplete effect. What I want to achieve is that when you type on google the search results come up almost inmediately without cliking on a search button.
I already did the ajax example with a search button, but I would like it to make it work while you type it shows the results in a table.
The problem is I have no idea where to start.
EDIT: To ask it in another way.
Lets suppose I have a grid with 1000 names. The grid is already present on the page.
I have a textbox, that when typing must filter that grid using AJAX, no search button needed.
Thanks
Use a PartialView and jQuery.ajax.
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#INPUTID").bind("keypress", function () {
if($(this).val().length > 2) {
$.ajax({
url: "URL TO CONTROLLER ACTION",
type: "POST|GET",
data: {query: $("#INPUTID").val(),
success: function (data, responseStatus, jQXHR)
{
$("#WRAPPERDIVID").html(data);
}
});
}
});
});
Then in your view:
<div>
<input type="text" id="INPUTID" />
</div>
<div id="WRAPPERDIVID"></div>
Edit
Also, you could build in some sort of timer solution that submits the request after say 1 second of no typing, so you don't get a request on every key press event.
Theres a good example you can check here try to type 's' in the search
if thats what you want
then the code and the tutorial is here
another good example here
If you are working on "filtering" a set already located on the page, then you seem to want to set the visibility of the items in the list, based upon the search criteria.
If so, then first, you need to first establish your HTML for each item. You can use the following for each item:
<div class="grid">
<div class="item"><input type="text" value="{name goes here}" readonly="readonly" /></div>
{ 999 other rows }
</div>
Then, you must use some jquery to set each row visible/invisible based on the search criteria:
$("#searchBox").live("change", function () {
$("div[class='grid'] input").each(function () {
var search = $("#searchBox").val();
if ($(this).val().toString().indexOf(search) != -1)
$(this).parent().show();
else
$(this).parent().hide();
});
});
This will cause the visibility of each item to change, depending on whether or not the text in the search box matches any text in the item.
