Is there a way to force a new window for this menu action? I can't see anything. i was thinking of adding a class, and some JS code to redirect if the class is there.
If your only intent is to open a window in a new tab, then why don't you set the target="_blank" in your transformation or where ever you are generating the HTML markup?
I am not saying that it's incorrect, however it's just that you can avoid js for this and rather do it in HTML.
Here's what i've done.
In the Navigation panel, i added the class 'nw'. I have this snippet add the target attribute.
// we need to use .nw as a class to indicate that a link should open in a new window.
$('.nw a, a.nw').each(function(i,v){
var $this = $(this);
$this.attr('target','_blank');
});
You can use the JS option and put in JS like: window.open("http://www.google.com");

Seems it's just a static text. But I want to e.g. redirect to home page by clicking on navbarText label... Just adding "
Workaround:
Create a CSS style class:
.navbarText {
cursor:pointer;
}
Assign the class to the text element
Create a onClientLoad Javascript which uses jQuery:
$(".navbarText").click(function(){
// do your redirect stuff here
});
If you don't use jQuery then you can also do this with Dojo (for which I can't provide code because I don't use Dojo).
Recently, i integrate node and phantomjs by phantomjs-node. I opened page that has iframe element, i can get the hyperlink element of iframe, but failed when i execute click on it.
Do you have a way? Anyone can help me?
example:
page.open(url);
...
page.evaluate(function(res){
var childDoc = $(window.frames["iframe"].document),
submit = childDoc.find("[id='btnSave']"),
cf = submit.text();//succeed return text
submit.click()//failed
return cf;
},function(res){
console.log("result="+res);//result=submit
spage.render("test.png");//no submit the form
ph.exit();
});
You can't execute stuff in an iframe. You can only read from it. You even created a new document from the iframe, which will only contain the textual representation of the iframe, but it is in no way linked to the original iframe.
You would need to use page.switchToFrame to switch to the frame to execute stuff on the frame without copying it first.
It looks like switchToFrame is not implemented in phantomjs-node. You could try node-phantom.
If the iframe is on the same domain you can try the following from here:
submit = $("iframe").contents().find("[id='btnSave']")
cf = submit.text();
submit.click()
If the iframe is not from the same domain, you will need to create the page with web security turned off:
phantom.create('--web-security=false', function(page){...});
I'm trying to create a CSS documentation library in Orchard. I want to save a description, CSS snippet and HTML snippet against each content type. The first view would show the description and CSS and HTML code written out. The second view would show a preview of what the CSS and HTML look like rendered.
cssdocumentation.com/content/item1
cssdocumentation.com/content/item1/live-preview
I've created the content type and the first view. But I'm not sure how to create the second view. I can see if I can create the alternative URL I can use the Url Alternates module to create an overriding .cshtml
To create an alternative URL I've looked at the autoroute module but this only allows you to adapt a single URL (unless I'm missing something?) and I've looked at Alias UI but this forces me to manually create an alternative URL everytime I create a content item.
Is this possible in Orchard without writting too much C#? (I'm a frontend developer so I only dabble in the behind the scenes stuff)
Thanks for any help
Best solution is to do this within your own module. But as a secondary option instead of having a second page, combine this content with your first page and hide it with CSS. When the user clicks a button to navigate to the next step render the CSS/HTML result on the same page. You can do this in many ways, here are a few ideas:
Render the CSS/HTML result out straight away on the same page but hide it. Show it when the user clicks a button
using jQuery to render the result on the client side. More dynamic if you allow editing of the HTML and CSS.
Redirecting the user to the same page with specific url parameters which you can pick up in your alternate to modify the output.
I would like to add a target (e.g. _blank) property for a basicLeafNode on the Widget Container from the extension library.
I do not see the property for this.
Instead I could use the onClick property and return an URL. But then I still would have no target defined.
I could add a postScript method
var target = url;
view.postScript("window.open('"+target+"','_blank')")
but this fires when the container is loaded.
Can I add a target property without using the onClick Property?
In case I use the onClick property what method should I use or how I prevent the postscript is executed when the container is loaded?
The basicLeafNode doesn't currently provide a target property. You have 2 courses of action:
implement your own custom node as Michael suggested (hard)
use a class on the link e.g. "newpageopen" and add an onPageReady script that selects all a elements with the calss newpageopen and add the target property to the resulted HTML.
Something like this:
require(["dojo/ready","dojo/query"], function(ready){
ready(function(){
dojo.query("a.newpageopen").attr("target", "_blank");
});
});
Hope that helps;
To make this list of solutions a bit longer here another on wich does not require dojo or jquery:
Instead of using your code as SSJS like:
var target = url;
view.postScript("window.open('"+target+"','_blank')")
You can use the Client Side Code and add SSJS code in #{javascript:}' wich i think is the shortest solution on this Problem. Here a hardcoded example:
<xe:basicLeafNode>
<xe:this.onClick><![CDATA[window.open('#{javascript: return "http://www.google.com";}','_blank');]]></xe:this.onClick>
</xe:basicLeafNode>
the above example will also work with viewScope variables or SSJS funktions:
<xe:basicLeafNode>
<xe:this.onClick><![CDATA[window.open('#{javascript: return viewScope.url;}','_blank');]]></xe:this.onClick>
</xe:basicLeafNode>
You can add the target attribute using JavaScript. It's kind of inconvenient way but would work.
You can use dojo.query to query the HTML output generated by basicLeafNode on the Widget Container. Once you get the node of <a> then you can add attribute using dojo.attr.
One problem you might face is that the ID generated by XPages contains the character :, which will not work so you would have to escape it.
function escapeColon(controlID) {
return controlID.replace(/:/g, "\\3A");
}
So your code would be something like:
dojo.addOnLoad(function() {
dojo.attr(dojo.query(escapeColon("#{id:ID_of_basicLeafNode}") + " > a")[0], "target", "_blank");
});
The code escapeColon("#{id:ID_of_basicLeafNode}") + " > a" would generate a CSS selector. Here I am assuming that basicLeafNode on the Widget Container would generate something like this <div id="_id1:basicLeafNode"><a href=".... So the CSS selector would search for a tag with that ID and inside it the <a> tag. You would have to modify this based on the output that is generated.
As I said its a bit inconvenient. Also I haven't tested this code.
Sometimes I want to add some custom CSS or Javascript to a page but the HTML editor doesn't handle this gracefully, even when using text dialog.
I could use an alternate view but then I have to upload the view file to my host every edit.
Any ideas?
Ok, I found a module (Vandelay.Classy) that does exactly this.
