I add sub class information to blocks , items and buttons. When i ran the form in application it shows only prompts not shows item fields
can any one suggest what is happen here
Thank you
Little bit hard to say without more information but most likely the forms compiler is not able to find your object library. Please make sure that the object library is in the forms path.

I am the admin of a Facebook group and am trying to keep track of how many people each user has added. I cannot seem to nail down how I can easily write a script to:
Determine how many people a User has added.
Echo that to a file in the format $User:$number_of_added_members.
I've been made aware I cannot do this with the API, I am banging my head against a wall here. If anyone could at least point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.
I just did this...
actually i am a programmer and did it in the hard way because i needed group by users. I hoped that the graph api at least give me an xml of user with added by in order to make my code read it but it did not so what i did is just to copy the table on the members page and paste it on a txt file and make a python code read it and make a dictionary of user: number_of_users_he_added.
it was quick but there is a problem that the members page does not give u all the results, its infinity scroll and i have a lot of members.
u can write a js script that read the dom instead of copy paste or even a chrome extension but still have the problem with the infinity scroll.
if facebook provide the added by field in their graph it will be great
Maybe you can work with the site which lists all members and look for the string below the member which says "added by on " But I'm not sure, how long this stays before it switches to "in the group since"
Edit
Use a crawler software like the one in Symfony to traverse the HTML of the page. You will need a PHP CLI for this tool. DOMCrawler from Symfony
I'm trying to create subpanel in Account detail view where list of elements is fetched from external REST service.
I know how to define subpanel, but have no idea how to fill it with data from external network source. Was trying to use get_subpanel_data but there I can only change SQL.
Any ideas how can I do this?
When I've done this in the the past, at least with Sugar 6, I opted distinctly not to try to create a true subpanel. The data being loaded is coming from an outside source and is loaded dynamically with the page, so why present it as if it's static data coming from Sugar? Instead, I created a custom Smarty template to use as the footer on the detail page. For such an example, you can check how it works on the Calls Edit View. I think it's the footerTpl parameter in the detailviewdefs.php or editviewdefs.php. I loaded the smarty template by creating a custom detail view for my module, so custom/modules/MyModule/views/view.detail.php - extend the base Detail View class and override the display to feed Smarty new params, then your Smarty template only needs to iterate through and present the data that your view defined.
To be super-hip and abide by MVC, you could even put your custom code into your bean (if it's a custom module) or into a custom controller method, then reference that from the view.detail.php, and still feed it from there to the Smarty template.
Alternatively, you could just load JavaScript into the Smarty template and use the JavaScript to call the third-party service, parse and present it, etc.
I realize this question is a little bit old now however it comes up fairly often so why not provide an answer with a couple possible solutions. I won't get into code but more just into the design theory of how it can work. If someone needs more specific code help then that is another question.
A couple ideas...
As you mentioned you can define a custom Function which will load in Data to the SubPanel from your own SQL Query. That is one method that I just recently got to finally put to use after knowing about it for a good year and a half.
When you go this route, you are restrained to using the Columns in the SubPanel. I assume it is using the actual Metadata files to determine which Field Columns a SubPanel can use so you pretty much need your custom data in a Database table to have the same column names as the fields defined in the SubPanel Metadata.
Obviously this works great in the right situation, however not always and that leads us into the 2nd method I know of.
The other way is pretty much what #Mattew-Poer mentioned in his answer. It means abandoning the SubPanel altogether and instead generating your own HTML. This is by far my favorite and prefered way of doing it and I have been some really custom modules due to this being possible in a custom module! I will show an example below.
(Click HERE to View full size image)
In the screenshot, you can see in this example that I have something looking Similar to a SubPanel however it is not and is much for flexible and easy to customize.
Example, to the far left column in my fake subpanel is image checkboxes. When clicked on, an AJAX request is made to change the Task row Status.
After that, the checkbox image is updated to indicate the new Status state, the Modified DateTime is updated, the Status column has color background SPANS and is also updated with the correct text and background color when the left side checkbox is clicked.
Doing any of this with the standard SubPanels is a complete nightmare and would be difficult to do some of the stuff that you are open to do when you build your own version of a SubPanel.
With that said, I have built an identical clone of the above screenshot using SugarCRM default SubPanels! It was a nightmare. I could easily update the content and HTML in some of the columns. I even had the AJAX click checkbox image to update and do all the other updates I mentioned above. It wasn't too hard and worked fairly good but it had some issues.
When you do inline edit, inline create record, or subpanel paging to load different set of record. You would then lose all the custom HTML formatting that was applied. The reason is, in the SubPanel you are limited to using the After UI load logic hook. So since the "Page" is loaded already, when an AJAX request is made to add/edit the subpanel content or load a new set of items with the paging links. It only loads the SubPanel content on those events and the whole Page content does not reload. Because the logic hook only fires off 1 time after the page loads, this newly loaded subpanel data doe not receive any of your custom HTML formatting.
In my case, this means that nice looking colored background Status spans are lost, the image checkboxes are lost, and some other functionality is lost.
Now to get super technical, I could have gone another 3rd route and instead made new Custom Field Types for each SubPanel filed that I needed to apply custom HTML to. This process is super hard in my experience and in some cases it really isn't the BEST solution.
Because of the reason explained, this is why my new modules use the Custom HTML route to generate my own version of a custom subpanel or whatever Data is needed in my Module pages! So far it is working better than I imagined and has opened doors for me to build custom SugarCRM modules that I previously didn't even realize would be possible to build due to some of the issues I mentioned above. Now I bypass them altogether and open the door to do pretty much anything!
I've got some really cool stuff for SugarCRM in the works right now. If anyone has any questions feel free to ask in a new question or for me personally in a comment here.
I'm coming accross a problem and i have searched the entire World Wide Web:
I have a Navigation form which has forms in it.
Those forms are used to give properties to my queries.
For example:
FormStatus-->Ask user to select the status and shoot the value to the query.
These queries build reports.
The main problem is that now that my form is in a navigation form, the link for the property is no longer working.
The link used to be : Forms!myForm!myProperty
Now i tried
Forms!navigationForm!myForm!myProperty
Me!myForm!myProperty
Forms!ParentForm!SubForm.Form!FieldName
Nothing works out!! Can anybody help me?
As a general approach to filtering forms or reports, as you can see placing forms! references inside of forms becomes a rather messy business real fast here.
You are best to remove the forms! references from ALL your queries. You then build a form that the user enter the values into, and then execute a browseto command.
The problem you are experiencing here is that the new navigation form swaps out a given form for a new form. This means that the old form is NOT loaded anymore. So, either you
Plan A
Dump use of forms! commands in your SQL queries. This is a good idea anyway since then one query will not blow up because some silly form is not open. And more important the query can be used in other places in the application without fear of some form not being opened.
The instant you place a forms! reference inside of a query is the instant you ruin that query and force "marry" that query to one form that must be opened.
Plan b:
Dump the use of the new navigation control system. Just remember, the new navigation system does NOT load the next form, but "replaces" the one that is being displayed. Thus the previous form is not going to be loaded anymore and thus no forms! ref is allowed. Worse, since the navigation form is really using sub-forms, then the forms! references have to be changed.
You can certainly grab the values of controls and build a where clause in code and use that for openform or open report commands here.
Last but not least, if you in for lots of continued torture, you can stick with your poor design you have now and simply re-edit and fix all of the forms! references to reflect that they are now being used inside of a parent form, and all of your forms are now in effect being run as sub forms.
Try using a dot instead of ! before the property Forms!navigationForm!myForm.myProperty
It has been a while since I've touched GWT, but I was recently looking at GWT applications to see how they accomplished certain tasks. I noticed that if you go into AdWords (a GWT application), you can manipulate table information in-line. For example, if I go into my campaign and click the pencil icon next to the ad group, a little popup will appear allowing me to change the ad group's name ... except there's no identifying information anywhere in the DOM structure. No hidden fields, no id's snuck into the div elements.
What's going on here? I've been working with interactive tables, but I've always established a click handler on a class and stuck an ID in there so I can tell what I'm editing. I've always found this as unsatisfactory. Any ideas?
It uses a JavaScript variable to get a hold on the element directly when it's created. That variable can then be stored somewhere - as long as it's accessible directly or indirectly from the the global object (document), it can be retrieved later from there.
A simple pure JavaScript example would be:
document.myParagraph = document.createElement('p');
document.body.appendChild(myParagraph);
document.mySpan = document.createElement('span');
document.myParagraph.appendChild(mySpan);
...
document.mySpan.onclick = ...
I'm trying to use Dashcode to create a drop-down list for an iPhone Web app. I want the list to be set dynamically based on a data source, and for the selected item to be set by a separate data source.
I've figured-out how to set the parameters on the data source to get it to alter the contents, and have the data in valid JSON, but can't figure-out how to connect up the data source to make anything but a blank pop-up appear. I've tried connecting arrays and associative arrays to each of the bindings and still can't get anything (except an error when I try and connect it to the content)
So... Anyone out there done this?
Thanks in advance.
Have you tried using the code out of Dashcode library? There are a number of prewritten snippets in there and often with a bit more detail on the Dashcode docs on the apple site.
The other way is to download some widgets and then disassemble them to see how someone else has done it.
