I am going to create two pages. In one page I create a textfield and a button. In text field I am going to write something. After click it on the button the next page will appear. I can move page from one page to another by using Application.Loadlevel(). In the second page, I have only one text field. I want to show the previous textfield value on the next text field, which is located in another page. But I can't do that thing. Please help.
This is one solution:
You can access fields (variables) in one script file which are present in another script file, this can be done my making that variable global, this way you can access it in another javascript file.
You need to make the text in the textfield global, so that you can access it in another script file (javascript in your case).
Global can be declared like this:
// The static variable in a script named 'TheScriptName.js'
static var someGlobal = 5;
// You can access it from inside the script like normal variables:
print(someGlobal);
someGlobal = 1;
And it can be accessed in another javascript like this:
TheScriptName.someGlobal = 10;

I would like to ask for your help on the following issue in MS Access.
I had created a form "CustomerListF", filled with command buttons for each client. For each button, I had created the following code:
Private Sub cmd_outlets_ABC_Click()
DoCmd.OpenForm "OrderFormF"
Forms!OrderFormF!Outlets = "ABC"
End Sub
The button would then open another form "OrderFormF" and enter "ABC" in the textbox named "Outlets". However, I realized the second line of code (Forms!OrderFormF!Outlets = "ABC") would always create a phantom record in my subform, which is located in "OrderFormF", and this record would travel to other clients' forms. This phantom record is usually created when the commandbutton is clicked twice (double clicks or subsequent clicks). It is a headache when the record starts to shift around.
enter image description here
I would like to seek your advice for vba code to edit the second line of code.
Thank you.
This approach for filling the field in opened form is not good. OrderFormF initialization and second line of your code with assigning value to the field may be executed in different sequence, they are not synchronized.
In order to avoid this, you should pass the argument to OrderFormF by another way. I would recommend to use OpenArgs parameter:
DoCmd.OpenForm "OrderFormF",,,,,,"ABC"
And then in Load event of OrderFormF assign the value to textbox:
Me.Outlets = Me.OpenArgs
In this case the "ABC" value will be assigned to first row in the form or to new record, if form is empty. Before assigning you can select the row if you need to assign value not to the first row. Also this way will protect you against double click on button, Load event executed only once during first form opening
I need CTRL+N to invoke the default behavior, that is to create a new record without invoking my NewButton.
NewRecordAction property is not filled out, the shortcut does nothing, seems to be disabled.
The DataSource on the form allows create, I can create through my NewButton MenuItemButton.
I seem to have lost it's default behavior somehow, what could cause that?
Ctrl-N does not do anything, because the NewRecordAction is not filled out and because there is not a command button with New in the Command property.
I assume you have used "Create form from template" or have copied from the SysBPStyle_TransactionDetails form (same thing). This form contains a botton NewButton which is ment to call a creation form, like the SalesCreateOrder form.
You have two options:
Fill out the NewRecordAction with the control name of your create menu item. This should be mandatory in list pages.
Delete the NewButton, then create a new command button with New in the Command property. Also remember to assign a value to the DataSource property on the control or a containing node.
I personally prefer the second option (maybe combined with a setFocus call) because a create form is then not needed and there is only one form for you to maintain and the user to learn.
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!

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 have been attempting to create a form where a user can simply press a button and the form will add a new field for the user to use. I have 2 of these dynamically added field types.
Firstly a field where a user can upload files, by pressing the add button another field is pasted underneath the current field and is ready for use.
I have followed an old guide on how to get this done with a bit of ajax and jQuery.
This guide to be exact: http://www.jeremykendall.net/2009/01/19/dynamically-adding-elements-to-zend-form/
As you can see it's from 2009 and a bit outdated yet it still works under the current Zend Framework version 1.11.11
The problem however arises now that i want an edit / update version of the form. I need to populate it's fields but first of all i need to create enough fields for the data to be stored in. So when there's 3 files that have been uploaded it should create 2 additional fields and place the 3 file names in these fields ready to be edited and updated. Simply using $form->populate($stuff) is not going to work
I just have no idea how to accomplish this and the tutorial on dynamically added fields only goes as far as the addAction and not how to create the editAction under these conditions.
Is there any tutorial out there on how to create and manage forms such as these? I'm sure i am not the only one who's had the idea to builds these kind of forms?
I can add my code if there's a request for it but it's the same as the example from the guide, just a different set of elements in the form.
Adding a small example of it's use.
A user adds an item with 3 files, these files are uploaded along with a filename so in the database it appears like this : File_Id : '1' , File_Name : 'SomeFile' , File_location : 'somewhere/on/my/pc/SomeFile.txt'.
Now the user realizes he forgot a file or wants to delete a file from that list, he goes to the edit page and here i want the form to display the previously added filenames. So if there's 3 files it shows 3 and when there's 2 it shows 2 etc. How do i build a form to dynamically add fields based on the number of uploaded files and then populate them?
Any advice on how to handle this is well appreciated :)
You can make use of the semi-magic setXxx() methods of the form.
Inside the form:
public function setFiles($files) {
foreach ($files as $file) {
$this->addElement(/* add a file element */);
//do other stuff, like decorators to show the file name, etc.
}
}
In your controller:
$files = $model->getFiles();
$form = new Form_EditFiles(array('files' => $files));
By passing an array with key files you will make the form try to call the method named setFiles(), which you have conveniently provided above.
This should push you in the right direction, or so I hope at least.
If I understand you correctly you want to populate file upload fields, which is not possible because of security reasons.
Edit:
You can add Elements inside of the Controller via $form->addElement() (basicly just like the $this->addElement() statements in the Tutorial)
I have created a new content type called protocol. The problem is that when you define a content type that means you also say how in the form the content is to be added and edited, like which form elements there will be.
A protocol is a content type that stores a title, an abstract and instructions. I want to add the title/instructions/abstract through one textarea where you tag the parts of the text like this:
[title]This is a title[/title] [abstract]This is an abstract. [/abstract][instructions]And these are my instructions.[/instructions]
That text is then processed and the content between each tag can be picked out and stored in a variable which should then be stored for the content type just like it had been added through a seperate field/textarea in a add/edit content form.
Is this possible to do? What kind of things should I read up on? Where in the drupal code are the function/functions that describes what happens when you push "Save" for a new content type for the standard add content form?(I just want to read it, not change anything)
Not sure this exactly matches what you're trying to do, but in a basic sense it should get you towards your goal. I wrote a module called endorse for Drupal 6 that provides a custom form feeding the submitted values into a new node:
http://drupal.org/project/endorse
Here's the form definition:
http://drupalcode.org/project/endorse.git/blob/refs/heads/master:/endorse.module#l136
Some basic validation follows and then the actual node save occurs at the top of the submit function, here up to line 231:
http://drupalcode.org/project/endorse.git/blob/refs/heads/master:/endorse.module#l206
The rest in that function is irrelevant except for the thank you and redirect at the very end of the submit function. If you're doing this in D7, it'll change a bit (see api.drupal.org for function definitions and whatnot), but it should look more or les the same.
Steps to solve your problem.
Create a module. Implement hook_menu with your custom add page.
Create a custom form using FORM API that it's gonna be displayed in your new page.
In your hook_form_submit get your values from the variable form state.
Parse the text and create and save a new node (snippet here).
$newNode = (object) NULL;
$newNode->type = 'protocol';
$newNode->title = $parsed_title;
$newNode->uid = 1;
$newNode->created = strtotime("now");
$newNode->changed = strtotime("now");
$newNode->status = 1;
$newNode->comment = 0;
$newNode->promote = 0;
$newNode->moderate = 0;
$newNode->sticky = 0;
// add CCK field data
$newNode->field_{YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD_1}[0]['value'] = $parsed_data1;
$newNode->field_{YOUR_CUSTOM_FIELD_2}[0]['value'] = $parsed_data2;
// save node
node_save($newNode);
Those are the basic steps. If you have any more questions please ask.
TIP: Install the Devel module and use the function dpm() when you need to know the contents of some variable. You are probably gonna need it when you are implementing hook_form_validate or hook_form_submit for knowing the contents in the variable $form_state.
So just do:
dpm($form_state); //this will give you the variables inside the array with a krumo view.
