Trigger Select Option (option contains more than one word) - triggers

This code not working when single option contains more than one word
$(document).on('click', '#mybtn', function(){
var val = $('#myval').val();
if($("#mylist").find("option:contains('"+val+"')").length){
$("select#mylist option[value="+val+"]").prop('selected',true).click();
}
});
working example

This is because you are not wrapping the values in quotes.
Try:
$("select#mylist option[value='"+val+"']").prop('selected',true).click();
Note that where you have value="+value+", this has now got two single quotes wrapping the value to make it value='"+value+"'.
Working fiddle
As a slight aside, I would recommend trying not to use spaces for IDs and option values.

How to remove a field from `showitems` in TCA?

TYPO3 has the function TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::addToAllTCAtypes() to add or replace one or more fields to the BE form of a record.
How can we remove fields?
(replacing by '' does not work)
Explanation:
Its about hiding some fields in tt_content for some CTypes only.
In the past we did it by overwriting the complete value. But with the upgrade from 6.2LTS to 8LTS we run into problems as the default labels have changed (pathes to the language files) and so some labels become lost in the BE, which was noticed very late.
Now I want a clean way to remove single fields so that the definition of the remaining fields stays clean with the default values from core (or other extensions).
Other extensiosn which add their own fields also are a problem if the value is set with a static string: these fields are also removed.
Since there is indeed no way to insert an empty string, you could create an empty palette instead. This way you will still get a non empty string to insert, but it will not create any output in the form.
addToAllTCAtypes('table', '--palette--;;empty', '', 'replace:fieldname')
And you should make a feature request, to make at least the replacement with an empty string possible in upcoming versions of TYPO3.
Do it in the code like this:
foreach ($GLOBALS['TCA']['yourtablenamehere']['types'] as &$definition) {
$definition['showitems'] = '';
}
if you only need to reset a specific type ('0', for example):
$GLOBALS['TCA']['yourtablenamehere']['types']['0']['showitems'] = '';
If you want to override types completely instead of clearing them (clearing only does not much sense anyway):
$GLOBALS['TCA']['yourtablenamehere']['types']['0']['showitems'] = 'title, bodytext';

Does the Office.js API support multiple range selection?

I need to select multiple ranges simultaneously via the Office.js API like you can do in the MSWord UI by holding down the CTRL key and highlight multiple non-contiguous paragraphs, like the screenshot below:
This attempt doesn't work. Rather than highlighting the first two instances of the word "the" in the document, it's highlighting the first, then highlight the second afterwards:
Word.run(function (context) {
// Set up the search options.
var options = Word.SearchOptions.newObject(context);
options.matchCase = false;
options.ignoreSpace = true;
options.ignorePunct = true;
options.matchWildcards = true;
var searchText = "the";
var searchResults = context.document.body.search(searchText, options);
context.load(searchResults);
return context.sync().then(function () {
searchResults.items[0].select();
searchResults.items[1].select();
});
});
No, none of the APIs support multiple selections. Even the ability for the user to do so, using Ctrl+select is relatively new. The capability was never carried over to the APIs.
The closest the APIs can do is to highlight (or otherwise format) the Range objects of interest. There is such functionality in Word's dialog box which is also available to the COM APIs, but I don't find an equivalent for the JS APIs...
To confirm what Cindy mentioned, Non-continuous selections are not only not supported in Office.js (for Word, we DO support them for Excel though) but also not supported manually on other platforms (i.e. Word Online).
It might be possible.
I ran across an odd result when using bindings and Office.context.document.goToByIdAsync(). Using this function you can navigate to any binding without having to call Word.Run(), which is nice. There is an option called SelectionMode, which by default does not select the binding, but can be set to select the contents of the binding. Weirdly, selecting the content in this way does not deselect the current selection! Which is not the result I wanted, fwiw; to me it is a nuisance that requires me to "deselect" any current selection before I use goToByIdAsync. But it's possible you could use this to select multiple ranges by wrapping them in contentControls and then creating bindings on them, then calling goToByIdAsync (with SelectionMode set to Select) on each binding. I have not tested this.
Edit
Actually, the previous selection is deselected, but it remains highlighted as though it is still selected. This appears to be a display bug.

Creating an array for multiple instances targeting IDs with non static members

I am trying to automate text boxes to fill with a certain value, however the text boxes names are not static so they will always change. I am looking to find a way to always populate them even though they do not have a static name and how to find the second, third, fourth etc instance of the boxes and be able to also fill them without overwriting the previous text boxes
i have tried using the _collect function in sahi pro but could not find how to target the class correctly
I expect to be able to populate any textbox using the same class name without overwriting the first instance of this class.
I am using Sahi pro.
The sahi documentation on _collect seems to be you exactly what you are looking for
// Collect all textboxes matching any identifier, in table "listing".
// Note the use of match all regular expression "/.*/"
var $textboxes = _collect("_textbox", "/.*/", _in(_table("listing"));
// Iterate and set values on all textboxes
for (var $i=0; $i<$textboxes.length; $i++) {
_setValue($textboxes[$i], "value");
}
If this does not solve your problem, please provide an example of the html and of your _collect code

Modify all text output by TYPO3

I would like to create a "cleanup" extension that replaces various characters (quotes by guillemets) in all kinds of textfields in TYPO3.
I thought about extending <f:format.html> or parseFunc, but I don't know where to "plug in" so I get to replace output content easily before it's cached.
Any ideas, can you give me an example?
If you don't mind regexing, try this:
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['tslib/class.tslib_fe.php']['cleanUpQuotes'][] = \NAMESPACE\Your\Extension::class;
Insert it into ext_localconf.php and this part is done.
The next step is the class itself:
public function cleanUpQuotes(TypoScriptFrontendController $parentObject)
{
$parentObject->content = DO_YOUR_THING_HERE
}
There also is another possibility which could replace any strings in the whole page - as it operates on the rendered page (and not only on single fields).
You even can use regular expressions.

Best way to remove an element in an XML using anti-xml

What would be the best and/or simplest way to remove an element from a XML document using anti-xml?
Here is one way:
(xml \ "nodeToRemove").filter { _.name != "nodeToRemove"}.unselect.head
Any others?
Not sure whether this is better or not, but you could use the drop method, like so:
(xml \\ 'nodeToRemove drop 1).unselect.head
which assumes a single occurrence of nodeToRemove; you can drop all items in the resulting Zipper if there is more than one occurrence.
Also, as the drop complements, the take and slice methods remove anything that's not included in their ranges.
