I am using the JQuery datatables search builder extension to filter my table data on the client-side. I am trying to figure out how to trigger the search(filtering) from a custom button click and not automatically as and when the search criteria are added. I found that the documentation have the option to trigger the search on enter key press but I would like to have the same functionality on a button click after building the search query.
Is there a way I can have a button click that triggers the search with search criteria, that then filters the table?
https://datatables.net/extensions/searchbuilder/
$('#example').DataTable( {
dom: 'Qfrtip',
search: {
return: true
}
});
});```

I noticed this is a modern page, you may have a try Field Customizer extension.

I want to implement the feature to select from a dropdown menu on a website but I can't seem to be able to find the correct selector to query such that it selects a random item from the dropdown.
example of the dropdown I want to randomly select from
https://www.slamjam.com/en_GB/man/footwear/sneakers/low/nike-running/air-tailwind-79-sneakers/J166713.html
I can get it to click on the dropdown and bring the in-stock sizes but I can't get it to automate choosing a random item from the dropdown list.
In the past, I've been able to select from a Google Forms dropdown and a regular website that had basic dropdowns where I could choose the selector and the value with ease - but on this website, it doesn't seem that straight forward.
I want it to be able to just choose a random option from the dropdown if there are any available.
This code will select the first item that is not selected:
await page.waitForSelector('#select2-select-prenotation-container');
await page.click('#select2-select-prenotation-container');
await page.waitForSelector('.select2-results__option[aria-selected="false"]');
await page.click('.select2-results__option[aria-selected="false"]');
Keep in mind that there are many disabled items on that list.
Is it possible to force the user to select only one value from a filter ?
For a radio button filter as below, is it possible to remove the buttons all & none and make sure that only one Choice is selected ?
you cannot change the existing filter features or functionality without developing a custom extension for a new filter control.
that said, you can certainly emulate a filter using what's called a Property Control and a Data Limiting Expression. for single selection, you're stuck with either a Dropdown control or a Listbox (single select) control.
you would need to...
create a Text Area Visualization on the page somewhere
insert a Listbox or Dropdown Property Control into the Text Area Visualization
create a Document Property with the same data type as your filter column and associate it to the Property Control. you can set this to Unique Values in Column or write in your own Fixed values.
open the Properties dialog on the visualization you'd like to filter and navigate to the Data page
scroll down to Limit Data Using Expression and use an expression like [MyFilterColumn] = "${MyDocumentProperty}" (quotes are required for string values; if numeric then omit quotes)
Please add this CSS in the HTML page of the spotifre to remove all and none
.ColumnFilter .sf-element-filter-item:last-of-type { display:none; }
.ColumnFilter .sf-element-filter-item:first-of-type { display:none; }
Another way to force the users to select one option is to add a Show/Hide in the visualization like this: Hide if UniqueCount([Field]) is greater than 1
I'm working on an Xpages application on which I have a view control.
I tried to put a checkbox in the column header to select all of the check boxes in the view.
The problem is when I go to another page from the view, its lines are not checked and the selection is made only on the visible page.
So, I want to be able to select all the rows in all the pages of the view, this without the selection disappears when switching from one page to another of the view.
There are couple of problems with views and selections.
First of all, pager actions to move between pages does not process 'select all rows' data because it is enabled to use partial execution by default. If you put partialExecute="false" into your pager, you will see that 'select all rows' checkbox will be maintained between pages.
However, if you have a checkbox on a column and the columnHeader, the component maintains a selectedIds array in the back-end. Unfortunately, this array holds only visible selections. Because the array is maintained by the viewPanel component, which is not aware of the list of data entries that are not shown.
Also, checkbox implementation does not provide any even mechanism where you can grab selections on the back-end to cache them between pages.
To determine select all checkbox can be doable with a little trick. Assuming you are using all default styles;
<xp:inputHidden
id="inputAllSelected"
value="#{viewScope.allSelected}"
defaultValue="false"></xp:inputHidden>
<xp:scriptBlock
id="scriptBlock1">
<xp:this.value><![CDATA[
function getSelectAllCheckbox() {
return dojo.query("input.xspCheckBoxViewColumnHeader")[0];
}
function toggleSelectAll(){
dojo.byId("#{id:inputAllSelected}").value=getSelectAllCheckbox().checked;
}
dojo.addOnLoad(function() {
dojo.connect(getSelectAllCheckbox(), "onchange", toggleSelectAll);
});
]]></xp:this.value>
</xp:scriptBlock>
To cache checkboxes between pages, you would implement your own checkboxes by using custom columns. I recommend using a data table component to get more flexibility.
