I need one help related to view panel column headers. I am using view panel to pull the data from SQL using JDBC Connection manager and displaying in view panel control using Xpages. I am displaying 500 rows at a time and when users trying to scroll the data the column headers are going scrolling up. So, now I need to fix all view column header should be fixed when the rows are scrolling up/down. Can anybody help me regarding this?
You can add that capability to an existing viewPanel with the jQuery.Thead plugin. There are only 2 steps involved:
Download the library and add it to your XPage/ application.
Activate the plugin for your viewPanel (or repeat):
x$("#{id:viewPanel1}").floatThead({});
(the x$ function comes from the ExtLib Bootstrap theme)
I've put together a small demo here:
http://bootstrap4xpages.com/bs4xp/demos.nsf/fixedHeaders.xsp
May be have a look at DataTables, for details to implement this in XPages see the blogs ofOliver Busse, http://oliverbusse.notesx.net/hp.nsf/blogpost.xsp?documentId=D5E
The easiest way will be to add viewStyle to your viewPanel and set it to 100%.
I hope this helps!

I'm new to Domino Designer. I'm trying to modify an existing application which is running on a remote server. I create a blank xPage and view in browser and it works. I add a label and view in browser and it works. I add a combo box and setup a data source for my xPage. The data source is in the current application and I'm using a view. I setup my combo to point to that data source and specify BindTo value. I view it in browser and I get Error 500 "HTTP Web Server: Command Not Handled Exception" I can open the view that I've used and see all the data in the view. I can even add, edit, and delete from the view.
Ideas... Thnxs in advance.
Additional Info. I've added a "View" from "Container Controls" and used the same data source and the same view and it also works in the browser.
The error being printed is:
javax.faces.el.PropertyNotFoundException: Error getting property 'CompanyName' from bean of type lotus.domino.local.View

This was already answered in the comments, but I want to write a better answer.
The problem in this case is that a view data source is being used for editing a document. Directly, this is not a possibility, though there are a few great ways to get around this. The first way, and my favorite, is to use an inline form. I think the Extension Library Demo database offers a few great examples of how to go about doing this. One way is to use a tooltip dialog. Another way is an inline form. A repeater is used and for every row in the view, a hidden panel can be made which contains the document data source and all field which are required to be changeable. By clicking on a button or link, the panel is made visible. This is my favorite variant because it is simple, quick, and generally looks great.
Another way to go about this is to have a view data source only, but use scripts to retrieve the document and set the values in the background and then save and release. It all depends on what you are trying to achieve.
My main recommendation is to look at the ExtLib demo and take a look at what they are doing there.
Background: Xpage with multiple data sources. Each row of tabbed table contains an edit panel bound to a different data source than the main page. Each page contains a table to enter new documents. These documents are children of the main document. There is a view control that shows the user created documents immediately. The button in the table saves the document in addition to adding some control fields. It does a partial refresh of the editPanel.
Recently I added validation to the fields in the entry table. I use a function, and prevent updating from anything but the button. I am using Tommy Valand's method from this blog post: http://dontpanic82.blogspot.com/2010/03/xpages-making-validation-behave.html. If I don't use Tommy's method, then the validators fire when switching tabs, and are useless.
All of this works sort of, but I am experiencing the following issues.
1) I have to push the button twice to get the partial refresh to fire. Not only that, but the validation messages to not fire until the button is pushed twice. The first part was still an issue prior to adding the validation.
2) The table values do not clear after the refresh does happen. This used to work prior to adding the validation. The only way to get the values to clear now, is to do a full refresh (F5).
I really just need partial refresh to behave like it should. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am answering my own question because I think that I might have found out why the partial refresh was acting so flaky. Here is what I did that solved my issues: Each tab had an editPanel. If I make the edit panel do a partial refresh to itself then the buttons on that panel seems to behave as you would expect them to.
When I create a new core control panel, the default in No submission. I do not know whether this issue manifests itself only when using multiple data sources and/or tabbed tables. Hopefully this fix will be of use to someone down the road. It is worth a try if you are having issues with partial refresh working correctly.
I am using Primefaces DataTable to display content in a grid. I want to reorder these rows using drag and drop(shuffle), I have tried jquery sortable, it works only ones, after that I need to refresh the browser.
Is there any way to implement that?
Thanks a lot
This feature is now available from PrimeFaces 5.0:
Usage is very simple by just enabling draggableRows option and also an optional rowReorder ajax behavior is provided getting a ReorderEvent with index information for flexibility.
Source : http://blog.primefaces.org/?p=3026
You can also have a look at the showcase here: http://www.primefaces.org/showcase/ui/data/datatable/reorder.xhtml
There is currently no way to have row-sorting with server side effects. You can achieve client side reordering using jQuery, but this is not stored on the server.
$('.ui-datatable tbody').sortable();
There is a discussion on the PrimeFaces forum.
There is also an issue about drag/drop capability in PrimeFaces' issue tracker. Note that the issue is closed as WontFix, so I guess you're out of luck.
I am using a Data View control and the Pager Add Rows control to allow the user to add more rows to the data view.
Can I extend the Pager Add Rows control to automatically add rows to the Data View when the user reaches the bottom of screen?
Yes, you can do that easily with jquery. if you master dojo you can probably do it in similar ways. but this example show jQuery.
add jQuery to your xpage
add a new custom scriptlibrary to your xpage
put below code in your custom scriptlibrary
Add a addPageRows control to your xpages and connect it to a repeat.
All set, try it out.
$(function(){
$(window).scroll(function(){
if($(window).scrollTop() == $(document).height() - $(window).height()){
$("[id$='pagerAddRows1_ar'],[id$='pagerAddRows2_ar']").click();
}
});
})
The jquery code will try and find pagerAddRows1_ar or pagerAddRows2_ar and if found will click the link automatically when you reach the bottom of screen.
You can actually use this code with any kind of pager or link you have on your xpage. just make sure your code click the right id.
I would like to change the destination URL when clicking on a list item / item title so it will no send me to view the item but will send me to a different URL base on the item.
I am not looking to replace the Links list but to use the list title as URL query filter.
Thanks
You will need to do it using the custom Page / Customize the View Page in the SharePoint Designed. Please refer to this article on how you can achieve it using the SPGridView control
I'm not totally clear on what you'd like to do (maybe screenshot mock ups would help?), but here's some general advice.
If you want to change the behaviour of a control then investigate the properties of the control as kusek has suggested. If the properties don't do what you need then try overriding the control to change what is rendered.
If the above doesn't work out or you want to change how these links render no matter where they appear on the page, then you need to look at a page-level solution. The most common are jQuery that can dynamically replace the URLs with JavaScript, or an HTTP module which is much more low level and will actually alter the HTML rendered to the page.
Hope this helps.
