I am trying here the QuickView form of MS Dynamics CRM. The text fields are under IFrame. Through the below java script, it's accessible: fname
//enter fname value
browser.executeScript("window.onload = document.getElementById('NavBarGloablQuickCreate').contentWindow.document.getElementById('firstname_i').value = 'rupam'"); But only first name is selected, if we try to do for the rest fields, it's not working. Hence, decided to do it through protractor code,
// Swtich to iFrame
browser.switchTo().frame(element(by.id("NavBarGloablQuickCreate")));
// Setting anme in first name text field
element(by.id('firstname_i')).sendKeys('Indra');
But here, it says element is not contactable.
You almost had it but were missing the .getWebElement() from your switchTo line. This is required as per the protractor documentation.
// Switch to iFrame
browser.switchTo().frame(element(by.id("NavBarGloablQuickCreate")).getWebElement());
//set name
element(by.id('firstname_i')).sendKeys('Indra');
Can you try the below and let me know.
I am also facing same issue to work with Dynamics CRM Quick view forms.I am trying to set a values on different fields of Quick view forms using SendKeys().But the value is not showing and cursor is not moving from one control to anaother.I have tried to move TAB using protractor TAB values also.But it's not showing.

I have a Configurable Form and i want to change the visibility of another field based on the value of a Drop-down list.
For example I have a Drop-Down list with entries A,B and the variable name for it is testDD.
I have a Text field smtpMailServer that I want to display only if testDD's value is A.
I have tried the following approaches in smtpMailServer's visibility without success:
return ((String) context.getVariable("testDD")).equals("A");
return (context.getVariable("testDD")).equals("A");
and I've also tried to add a script to testDD Change Selection Script with The following code
context.setVariable("ThisFormConfiguration", selectedItem);
And use the code above with ThisFormConfiguration instead of testDD. But it's not working.
Could you please help me?
Thanks!
I have tried the following approaches in smtpMailServer's visibility without success
The visibility script of a form component is only evaluated when the form is shown. You should keep it, but it only handles the initial condition.
and I've also tried to add a script to testDD Change Selection Script with
The following code context.setVariable("ThisFormConfiguration", selectedItem); A
Using the "Selection change script" property is the right idea, but your script has no effect. There is no live binding from the variables to the form components, the variable is read when the form is shown and updated when the user clicks "Next".
You have to use the following selection script:
formEnvironment.getFormComponentById("123").setVisible(selectedItem.equals("A"));
where "123" has to be replaced by the ID of the text field.
I need to add a dropdown in the New Ticket Screen of OTRS. I managed to add a Dropdown by adding a Dynamic Field with the help of Dynamic Fields Management in Admin Section.
Now my problem is that I want to populate this Dropdown with data that I get from some distant database on the run and dependin on the User Loged In. How can i feed In this Dynamic Data in the DropDown List in OTRS ?
Thank you.
To do such a thing I do not believe is supported from the Dynamic Field UI provided by OTRS.
So you can either:
1- add all the possible values into the drop down box and then hide/show them using code changes in the dtl file. (use javascript).
For creating a new ticket there is either AgentTicketEmail.dtl or AgentTicketPhone.dtl.
There is also the CustomerTicketMessage.dtl if you want to include it in the customer interface too.
2- Add only one value which you can also hide using javascript in the dtl files and just add values to the dropdown list using javascript code.
Example javascript below hides/shows different dynamic fields. You can find what your dynamic field is called by looking at the page source from your browser.
function setdynamicviews(){
switch ($('#Dest').val() ) { //this is where the queue is relevant (Dest = Queue)
case "8\|\|Support": // need to slash escape the pipes
//show dynamic fields
document.getElementById('LabelDynamicField_Product').style.display = 'block';
document.getElementById('LabelDynamicField_SerialNo').style.display = 'block';
break;
default:
//hide dynamic fields.
document.getElementById('LabelDynamicField_Product').style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById('LabelDynamicField_SerialNo').style.display = 'none';
}
}
To add items to usign javascript see here
Yuu have not provided enough information for me to help with getting the information "from some distant database"
Note: if you do change any DTL files or other otrs files you should defrinitely create a theme first see here
Hope this helps.
I am using sx tag i.e. struts-dojo-tag of struts 2 to autosuggest one field on one page. It is working fine. Now I want to populate other fields on the same page based on the selection of autosuggest field. I tried calling javascript on the above field on various events like onselect, onchange,etc with no success.
JSP code :
<sx:autocompleter autoComplete="true" listKey="id" listValue="brandName" name="brand.brandName" id="brandName" cssClass="textfield" list="brandList" onchange="populateInfo(this.value);"></sx:autocompleter>
here I want to autosuggest brandNames available and on selecting the brand, I want to populate data regarding the brand in some others fields. I tried calling java script function populateInfo(), but the function is not getting called.
Can you please help me out?
I think this problem can be solved by using select tag of struts2-jquery.
You can have a look in these showcase
As I have an editor-list, that needs to have additional edit lines, I found this solution for the problem:
Mvc list editor by Stevens Anderson
this works perfectly, excepts that every time when I add a new line, the whole Form is set back to the default values. You can see the behavior in the demo of the linked page.
Try to edit the value of an input box and then add a new line without saving.
Why isn't it possible just to add a new editor line, without changing any data.
Ok, I've found a workaround
Instead of using the Html.AjaxLink I am now using a custom JavaScript function with jQuery
function newProjectExpenseRow() {
jQuery.get("/Controller/Action", function (response) {
$(response).insertBefore("#id");
});
}
it now gets the Control from the controller/action and inserts the result before the #id element
OK, let's start with the Html.Textbox. It is supposed to contain text read from a file. The file read is based on what the user picks from a dropdown list.
The first time it is fine. The user picks a value from the dropdown list. The controller uses that value to read some text from a file, and returns that text to the view via the view model. Everything is fine.
THen the user picks another value from the dropdown list. The controller reads a new value from a file and returns it via the view model. Debugging to the LINE BEFORE THE HTML.TEXTBOX is set in the view shows that the model contains the correct value. However, the textbox itself still shows the PREVIOUS value when the page displays!
If I switch from Html.Textbox to a plain input, type="text" html control, everything works fine. That's not so hard, but the same thing happens with my dropdown list -- I can't set the selected value in code. It always reverts to whatever was chosen last. Rendering a "select" tag with a dynamically-generated option list is a pain. I would love to be able to use Html.Dropdown.
What am I missing here?? This is such a simple thing in webforms!
When you post a form, the values that are posted are put into ModelState. When the HtmlHelper renders an html iunput element, e.g. Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.FirstName), it'll search various locations to get the value for the textbox... ModelState is before ViewData.Model in the list of locations. So there for, the previously posted value will appear in your textbox.
To fix this you could clear the ModelState value or update the ModelState value. BUT I would kinda view that as a hacky way of getting around the problem.
The real issue has more to do with the flow of the posts and requests. I would personally look into that and maybe implement the PRG (Post Redirect Get) pattern.
HTHs,

Following on from what Charles/Charlino said:
Model binding updates the ModelState object, which contains validation and model binding errors that are collected during model binding.
Inside an action method, model binding has occurred already to update the model, and generated the ModelState object. If you now update the value on the model inside the action, you must also manually update the model state (since the helpers use it to generate their HTML). Below is an example:
model.CaptchaIsValid = CaptchaService.ValidateAndExpireCaptcha(model.CaptchaAttempt);
if (!model.CaptchaIsValid)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("CaptchaAttempt", "Incorrect - please try again");
}
// I'll clear the value on each attempt, to force them to re-enter a CAPTCHA.
model.CaptchaAttempt = string.Empty;
// Since I updated the model, I must create a new ValueProvider result...
ValueProviderResult clearedValue = new ValueProviderResult(
model.CaptchaAttempt,
model.CaptchaAttempt,
CultureInfo.CurrentCulture);
// ... and update the ModelState's value.
ModelState.SetModelValue("CaptchaAttempt", clearedValue);
The biggest issue I see here is that you are trying to do a postback within MVC. That model is really not supported, and is actually way more trouble than it is worth (as it seems you are finding out). I would recommend using Ajax to update the contents of the dropdown dynamically.
