alert handling in ui automation iphone app unable to cancel the option - iphone

system.logElementTree();
var target = UIATarget.localTarget();
target.onAlert = function onAlert(alert) {
UIALogger.logDebug("There was an alert!");
target.onAlert.buttons()["No"].tap({x:164,y:278});
return false;
even though no option is clicked systen not performing any action
Can anyone please help me ...

Instead of BamboOS suggestion which loops through various positions, you can try this inside your onAlert function:
alert.tapWithOptions({tapOffset:{x:0.5, y:0.6}});
This tap targets the middle of the UIAAlert (x:0.5) and 60% from top to bottom (y:0.6). This works when there is only one button. You have multiple buttons, then you have to changed the value of x. This works for me.

I just published a blog post regarding UI Automation and dealing with alerts:
http://www.conduce.net/Blog.aspx?f=Automated-Test-of-iPad-Apps
Basically following alert handler worked for me:
UIATarget.onAlert = function onAlert(alert){
var name = alert.name();
UIALogger.logMessage("alert "+name+" encountered");
if(name == "errorAlert"){
var positionX = 500;
for(var positionY=300; positionY<600;positionY+=10){
target.tap({x:positionX,y:positionY});
}
return true;
}
return false;
}

I would either use the "cancelButton" or "defaultButton" methods when handling alerts.

Transition from Launchpad to application sets focus on SearchField

we have the problem that a transition from the SAP Fiori Launchpad into our application sets the focus on the SearchField of the Master view.
It's a problem, because on mobile devices it triggers the activation of the keyboard which blocks the list view entries.
Any idea how to prevent that behaviour?
Directly entering the application is not creating this problem.
It's also happening in another Master/Detail application we created.
Across Android and iOS devices, replicated on Safari, Chrome, and Firefox.
Kind regards,
Michael
A bit late to the party but we had the same problem. Using onAfterRendering does work only once because that lifecycle hook gets only called once. To solve the issue do the following:
onInit: function () {
// onAfterShow hook gets called every time the view is shown
this.getView().addEventDelegate({onAfterShow: this._afterShow}, this);
},
_afterShow: function () {
jQuery.sap.delayedCall(0, this, function () {
jQuery('input').blur();
});
}
Hope that helps.
This is a workaround (the easiest solution I could Find as of now)
since I couldn't reproduce your issue :(
onDataLoaded() or in onAfterRedering() methods
//basically set the focus on something like this.. OR just create any SAPUI5 element and setVisible(false) and set the focus()
this.getList().focus();
UPDATE: Catch hold of search in getHeaderFooterOptions()
getHeaderFooterOptions: function () {
var _this = this;
var objHdrFtr = {
//sI18NMasterTitle: "YOUR_TITLE",
onRefresh: function (searchField, fnRefreshCompleted) {
_this._searchField = searchField;
}
};
return objHdrFtr;
}
then
onAfterRendering(){
if(this._searchField){
this._searchField.onAfterRendering = function() {
jQuery(this.getDomRef()).focusout()
};
}
}
Let me know if this works or not!
I will delete the answer.

can't tap on item in google autocomplete list on mobile

I'm making a mobile-app using Phonegap and HTML. Now I'm using the google maps/places autocomplete feature. The problem is: if I run it in my browser on my computer everything works fine and I choose a suggestion to use out of the autocomplete list - if I deploy it on my mobile I still get suggestions but I'm not able to tap one. It seems the "suggestion-overlay" is just ignored and I can tap on the page. Is there a possibility to put focus on the list of suggestions or something that way ?
Hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance.
There is indeed a conflict with FastClick and PAC. I found that I needed to add the needsclick class to both the pac-item and all its children.
$(document).on({
'DOMNodeInserted': function() {
$('.pac-item, .pac-item span', this).addClass('needsclick');
}
}, '.pac-container');
There is currently a pull request on github, but this hasn't been merged yet.
However, you can simply use this patched version of fastclick.
The patch adds the excludeNode option which let's you exclude DOM nodes handled by fastclick via regex. This is how I used it to make google autocomplete work with fastclick:
FastClick.attach(document.body, {
excludeNode: '^pac-'
});
This reply may be too late. But might be helpful for others.
I had the same issue and after debugging for hours, I found out this issue was because of adding "FastClick" library. After removing this, it worked as usual.
So for having fastClick and google suggestions, I have added this code in geo autocomplete
jQuery.fn.addGeoComplete = function(e){
var input = this;
$(input).attr("autocomplete" , "off");
var id = input.attr("id");
$(input).on("keypress", function(e){
var input = this;
var defaultBounds = new google.maps.LatLngBounds(
new google.maps.LatLng(37.2555, -121.9245),
new google.maps.LatLng(37.2555, -121.9245));
var options = {
bounds: defaultBounds,
mapkey: "xxx"
};
//Fix for fastclick issue
var g_autocomplete = $("body > .pac-container").filter(":visible");
g_autocomplete.bind('DOMNodeInserted DOMNodeRemoved', function(event) {
$(".pac-item", this).addClass("needsclick");
});
//End of fix
autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(document.getElementById(id), options);
google.maps.event.addListener(autocomplete, 'place_changed', function() {
//Handle place selection
});
});
}
if you are using Framework 7, it has a custom implementation of FastClicks. Instead of the needsclick class, F7 has no-fastclick. The function below is how it is implemented in F7:
function targetNeedsFastClick(el) {
var $el = $(el);
if (el.nodeName.toLowerCase() === 'input' && el.type === 'file') return false;
if ($el.hasClass('no-fastclick') || $el.parents('.no-fastclick').length > 0) return false;
return true;
}
So as suggested in other comments, you will only have to add the .no-fastclick class to .pac-item and in all its children
I was having the same problem,
I realized what the problem was that probably the focusout event of pac-container happens before the tap event of the pac-item (only in phonegap built-in browser).
The only way I could solve this, is to add padding-bottom to the input when it is focused and change the top attribute of the pac-container, so that the pac-container resides within the borders of the input.
Therefore when user clicks on item in list the focusout event is not fired.
It's dirty, but it works
worked perfectly for me :
$(document).on({
'DOMNodeInserted': function() {
$('.pac-item, .pac-item span', this).addClass('needsclick');
}
}, '.pac-container');

JavaScript: Event listener on iFrame resize / height attribute change (FB comment box)

I have the following problem: I need to add an event listener for an iframe (a Facebook comment box) when it changes its height.
I can not access or change the contentWindow because it is cross domain. But there must be a callback function or something that changes the height attribute.
Is there a way to add an event listener on attribute changes or something? I alreade tried onResize and onChange.
I'm getting crazy with that... Anyone has an idea?
Thank you so much!!
Short answer: No.
However, you can use "postMessage" and "receiveMessage" to send from one iframe to another cross domain. (Of course, only if you have access to the iframed content - I suspect not as it's on facebook.)
In any case... for future help....
(on the iframed page)
var ii = {}
ii.window_height = 800;
var sendHeight = function () {
var window_height = $('body').outerHeight(true);
if (window_height != ii.window_height) {
ii.window_height = window_height;
window.parent.postMessage(ii.window_height, "http://containerDomain.com");
}
}
setInterval(sendHeight, 2000);
(on the container page)
function receiveMessage(evt) {
if (evt.origin === 'https://iframedDomain.com')
{
var iframe_content_height = evt.data;
$('#iframe_form').animate({height: iframe_content_height });
}
}
if ($.browser.msie) {
window.attachEvent('onmessage', receiveMessage);
} else {
window.addEventListener('message', receiveMessage, false);
}
Remember to change the domains in each script.
Note: that's using jQuery - It works, but I'm sure someone can write that better then me? Also not too proud of the interval checking the height... might update if i can.

Mobile Safari: Disable scrolling pages "out of screen"

I want to block scrolling page "out of the iPhone screen" (when gray Safari's background behind the page border is visible). To do this, I'm cancelling touchmove event:
// Disables scrolling the page out of the screen.
function DisableTouchScrolling()
{
document.addEventListener("touchmove", function TouchHandler(e) { e.preventDefault(); }, true);
}
Unfortunately, this also disables mousemove event: when I tap on a button then move my finger out of it, then release the screen, the button's onclick event is triggered anyway.
I've tried mapping touch events on mouse events, as desribed here: http://ross.posterous.com/2008/08/19/iphone-touch-events-in-javascript/, but to no avail (the same behavior).
Any ideas?
From what I understand of your question, you've attempted to combine the code you've presented above with the code snippet provided by Ross Boucher on Posterous. Attempting to combine these two snippets back-to-back won't work, because in disabling touchmove, you've also disabled the shim that allows mousemove to work via his sample.
This question and its answers sketch out a workable solution to your problem. You should try these two snippets to see if they resolve your issue:
This snippet, which disables the old scrolling behavior:
elementYouWantToScroll.ontouchmove = function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
};
Or this one, from the same:
document.ontouchmove = function(e) {
var target = e.currentTarget;
while(target) {
if(checkIfElementShouldScroll(target))
return;
target = target.parentNode;
}
e.preventDefault();
};
Then, drop in the code on Posterous:
function touchHandler(event)
{
var touches = event.changedTouches,
first = touches[0],
type = "";
switch(event.type)
{
case "touchstart": type = "mousedown"; break;
case "touchmove": type="mousemove"; break;
case "touchend": type="mouseup"; break;
default: return;
}
//initMouseEvent(type, canBubble, cancelable, view, clickCount,
// screenX, screenY, clientX, clientY, ctrlKey,
// altKey, shiftKey, metaKey, button, relatedTarget);
var simulatedEvent = document.createEvent("MouseEvent");
simulatedEvent.initMouseEvent(type, true, true, window, 1,
first.screenX, first.screenY,
first.clientX, first.clientY, false,
false, false, false, 0/*left*/, null);
first.target.dispatchEvent(simulatedEvent);
event.preventDefault();
}
And that should do it for you. If it doesn't, something else isn't working with Mobile Safari.
Unfortunately I haven't had the time to check out to above yet but was working on an identical problem and found that the nesting of elements in the DOM and which relation you apply it to affects the handler a lot (guess the above solves that, too - 'var target = e.currentTarget').
I used a slightly different approach (I'd love feedback on) by basically using a class "locked" that I assign to every element which (including all its children) i don't want the site to scroll when someone touchmoves on it.
E.g. in HTML:
<header class="locked">...</header>
<div id="content">...</div>
<footer class="locked"></div>
Then I have an event-listener running on that class (excuse my lazy jquery-selector):
$('.ubq_locked').on('touchmove', function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
});
This works pretty well for me on iOs and Android and at least gives me the control to not attach the listener to an element which I know causes problems. You do need to watch your z-index values by the way.
Plus I only attach the listener if it is a touch-device, e.g. like this:
function has_touch() {
var isTouchPad = (/hp-tablet/gi).test(navigator.appVersion);
return 'ontouchstart' in window && !isTouchPad;
}
This way non-touch devices will not be affected.
If you don't want to spam your HTML you could of course just write the selectors into an array and run through those ontouchmove, but I would expect that to be more costly in terms of performance (my knowledge there is limited though). Hope this can help.

Ajax Auto Suggest v.2 suggestion depends on radio button?

I am using auto suggest v.2.1.3 from brandspankingnew.
I have a form with two radio button and a text field and would like to know how to make the auto suggest script pointing to a different php file if one of the radio button is checked.
I tried this but it doesnt work, its always point to the same php file even if second button is checked
Could you please assist?
Many thanks in advance.
My code is as follows:
function targetvalue()
{
for (i=0;i
/>Business Street
var options = {
script:"autosuggest.php?json=true&limit=6&",
varname:"input",
json:true,
shownoresults:false,
maxresults:10,
callback: function (obj) { document.getElementById('name').value = obj.id; }
};
var as_json = new bsn.AutoSuggest('business', options);
var options_xml = {
script: function (input) { return "autosuggest.php?input="+input+"&testid="+document.getElementById('testid').value; },
varname:"input"
};
var as_xml = new bsn.AutoSuggest('business', options_xml);
As for me, the easiest solution is to pass the the button state to the one script eg only one script but can return different results depending on button state. Otherwise you need to rewrite options each time someone clicks on the radio button. The second solution an lead to unpredictable behavior of auto suggest component.
Sample script:
var selectedValue = getRadioSelectedValue("radioGroupName");
var options_xml = { script: function (input) { return "autosuggest.php?input="+input+"&testid="+document.getElementById('testid').value+"&mode="+selectedValue; },
Write getRadioSelectedValue by yourself to get selected radio button value or set some flag on click. Mode param in GET request will indicates the state of the button, so you can return proper response.
