I have a hierarchical relation inside an entity X, I Have parent lookup which allow to give parent to a record of this entity, and I have created a Subgrid attached to this lookup within the same form of the entity:
The problem is that the display of the button + is unstable in this subgrid, sometimes it appears sometimes no. I dont know if this problem is related to some setting or it is a bug of dynamics crm online last version?
For information, I don't have this problem with other sub-grids.
Thanks in advance,
if you want to add a custom button you may do this as follows
function CreateButton() {
var connectionSubGridPlusBtn = document.getElementById("Connections_addImageButton").parentNode.parentNode;
//Connections_addImageButton is the id of + button
if (connectionSubGridPlusBtn != null) {
//New Button
var div = document.createElement("div");
div.className = "ms-crm-contextButton";
div.innerHTML = "<button id='newButton' type='button' style='width:80px;cursor: pointer;padding:0px' >New Button</button>";
connectionSubGridPlusBtn.appendChild(addVendorDiv);
//Event and url for new
document.getElementById("newButton").onclick = function () {
//Write codefor the button click event
}
}
}
call this function on load of the form
The entity has to be created before you're able to add related entities. You can add disable all required fields, and perform a save in the onload, and you should always see the plus sign.
A slightly better solution is to override the create button for the entity, and rather than directing to the create form, perform a rest entity creation, then direct to that form. Then you don't have to perform a save in the on load.

I searched the whole web and I couldn't found any good topic which expose the proper way to do it.
I have a very simple web which I developed using Kentico 9 CMS. This web only contains two subpages and a header to navigate between those.
The "Home" subpage contains a custom form which remains connected to a SQL table which is populated every time you press submit with certain data.
On the other hand, the other page, shows the stored data by using a custom web part which connects to the DB by using BizFormItemProvider and this object is used as a layer to binding the data in a control.
Now is my point. If you see, there is a button to "Edit" a certain row and my intention is to Redirect to "Home" (which contains the form) and sending via QueryString the ID of the row attempted to edit.
I was unable to understand how can you re-fill the form with its data using an ID.
Maybe because I never worked with a CMS before, I'm looking the development such as pure ASP.NET and it could not be the correct one.
Custom
Given that your solution uses a custom form for entering the data, as well as a custom web part for listing the stored data, you will need to use a custom solution to handle the editing of data, as well.
In the custom webpart on the Home page, in a load event, you can retrieve the form data and set the values on the form controls.
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Ensure that the form is not being posted back,
// to prevent entered data from being overwritten
if(!IsPostBack)
{
// Get the form item ID from the query string
var personId = QueryHelper.GetInteger("personId", 0);
if(personId > 0)
{
// Get the biz form item, and set form control values
var bizFormItem = BizFormItemProvider.GetItem(personId, "customFormClassName");
txtFirstName.Text = bizFormItem.GetStringValue("FirstName", string.Empty);
}
}
}
Similarly, when Submit is clicked, you can update the existing form item with the new data
protected void btnSubmit_OnClick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// Get the form item ID from the query string
var personId = QueryHelper.GetInteger("personId", 0);
if(personId > 0)
{
// Retrieve the existing biz form item,
// and update it from the form control values
var bizFormItem = BizFormItemProvider.GetItem(personId, "customFormClassName");
bizFormItem.SetValue("FirstName", txtFirstName.Text);
bizFormItem.Update();
}
else
{
// Your code for inserting a new form item...
}
}
The Kentico way
You should really consider using the Kentico form engine for accomplishing this task. Instead of using a custom form for entering the data, use the built-in On-line form webpart.
The benefits are numerous, such as:
Ability to set the form layout through the CMS, and use alternative layouts
Automatic confirmation email to the submitter of the form, as well as notification emails to the administrators
To accomplish your task, you can customise the On-line form webpart to support loading of existing data.
In the bizform.ascx.cs file, add code to the SetupControl method:
protected void SetupControl()
{
if (StopProcessing)
{
// Existing code...
}
else
{
// Existing code...
// Get the form item ID from the query string
var personId = QueryHelper.GetInteger("personId", 0);
if(personId > 0)
{
// Get the biz form item, and set form control values
var bizFormItem = BizFormItemProvider.GetItem(personId, "customFormClassName");
if(bizFormItem != null)
{
// Set the item ID
viewBiz.ItemID = bizFormItem.ItemID;
}
}
}
}
This will automagically switch the form to Edit mode, instead of Insert mode, as soon as you set the ItemID property. Clicking the Submit button will save changes on the existing form item.
You will not need to worry about validation in your code, and inserting data will still work.
Is this a contact form that you are using Kenticos built in form application for, or is it a custom form? If it is a custom form you can create a transformation with a link that will contain the ID. If it is a biz form, you can still create a transformation in Page Types (create a new page type and select "The page type is only a container without custom fields"), then write a custom query to get the biz form data, and use a repeater to display the data with that transformation.
I want to display multiple datasources in a cesiumjs viewer but need to allow the user to select which ones they want to see at any given time. For example, if I load a kml and a czml file, how do I hide one and show the other? I can't find the cesiumjs way to do this with its API.
Update Feb 2016: A show flag has been proposed and may be added to a future version of Cesium.
Original answer:
Currently there is no show flag on the dataSource, however it is easy to add and remove the dataSource from the list of available dataSources, and this is used to get the show/hide functionality.
Here's a working demo: Load the Cesium Sandcastle Hello World example, and paste the following code into the left side, then hit Run (F8). It should display a checkbox in the upper-left with show/hide functionality.
var viewer = new Cesium.Viewer('cesiumContainer');
// Create a typical CzmlDataSource.
var dataSource1 = new Cesium.CzmlDataSource();
dataSource1.load('../../SampleData/simple.czml');
// Add a checkbox at the top.
document.getElementById('toolbar').innerHTML =
'<label><input type="checkbox" id="showCheckbox" /> Show CZML</label>';
var checkbox = document.getElementById('showCheckbox');
checkbox.addEventListener('change', function() {
// Checkbox state changed.
if (checkbox.checked) {
// Show if not shown.
if (!viewer.dataSources.contains(dataSource1)) {
viewer.dataSources.add(dataSource1);
}
} else {
// Hide if currently shown.
if (viewer.dataSources.contains(dataSource1)) {
viewer.dataSources.remove(dataSource1);
}
}
}, false);
This code could be improved, for example it could be a "lazy load" where the dataSource.load does not get called until the first time it's shown. Also if a dataSource has been hidden a while, you have to consider at what point should you be saving memory by destroying the dataSource rather than continuing to hold onto it (triggering a new lazy load if it is later shown again).
as of now, show is a property of the data source, you can control it by accessing the property in dot or bracket notation:
https://cesiumjs.org/Cesium/Build/Documentation/CzmlDataSource.html#show
const src = new Cesium.CzmlDataSource();
src.show = false;
We Have Contact Entities in contact Entitie one lookup filed company Name in that lookup having two values 1.Account and 2.Contact . When we are selecting contact show the address filed when we select account hide the address filed we needs to write the plugin to Execute that works. Kindly any one help me on the same.
Thanks!!
Rajesh Singh
First, if you need to make change on a form, you can't use plug-ins. Plug-ins are made for bussinees logics, like Update another record when the first one is created, make complex logic, etc...
What you need it is a javascript that executes on the OnLoad of the form and OnChange event in that OptionSet.
The lines you are looking for are:
function ShowField()
{
// The field is present on the form so we can access to its methods
var optionSet = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("custom_attribute");
if (optionSet == undefined)
{
return;
}
// The control is present on the form so we can access to its methods
var controlAddress = Xrm.Page.getControl("custom_address");
if (controlAddress == undefined)
{
return;
}
var valueOptionSet = optionSet.getValue(); // This is the value you set creating the OptionSet
switch (valueOptionSet)
{
case 0: // Your account value, show
controlAddress.setVisible(true);
case 1: // Your contact value, hide
controlAddress.setVisible(false);
default:
return;
}
}
You need to register a web resource and register the event, if you need more information about the code or why this stuff is here and why this not just tell me.
I have a xpage that loads a Bootstrap modal window (see picture). I need to validate the data only the user pushes the 'Add New' button. I do not want the validators to run when 'Save and Continue' or 'Previous' buttons are pressed.
The modal dialog is a custom control used many times throughout the application. I cannot change the buttons to disable validators because most of the time I want to validate. The center content is stored in its own custom control.
My question is can I add code to the button to get a handle to each control, and set the disableValidators to true. I haven't been able to figure out how to do this. I have already tried computing the disableValidators but was totally unsuccessful. The fields are all bound to scoped variables.
I know that I can use clientside validation here, but the rest of the application uses server-side and I want to be consistent + this is a responsive app, and clientside on mobile is annoying.
Rather than adding code to button to and setting disableValidators for each control I would suggest the other way round. For each control set the required property only if user pushes 'Add New' button.
This blog post by Tommy Valand describes it in detail. The below function lets you test if a specific component triggered an update.
// Used to check which if a component triggered an update
function submittedBy( componentId ){
try {
var eventHandlerClientId = param.get( '$$xspsubmitid' );
var eventHandlerId = #RightBack( eventHandlerClientId, ':' );
var eventHandler = getComponent( eventHandlerId );
if( !eventHandler ){ return false; }
var parentComponent = eventHandler.getParent();
if( !parentComponent ){ return false; }
return ( parentComponent.getId() === componentId );
} catch( e ){ /*Debug.logException( e );*/ }
}
So if you want the validation to run only when the user clicks a specific 'Add New' button then write this in all the required-attributes:
return submittedBy('id-of-add-new-button')
I have a list within Sharepoint, using a custom new form I have added a custom list form control ("New item form" for the list) and changed the SaveButton to a standard input HTML button, and added an 'onclick' event that is as follows:
onclick="javascript: {ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent('__commit;__redirect={NewFormWizard2.aspx?id=}')}"
This works as in saves the data and redirects to the NewFormWizard2.aspx?id= page.
How do I get the ID of the created item to be passed to the redirected page?
Thus once the form is completed it would redirect to NewFormWizard2.aspx?id=23
jtherkel was close, but was missing a '}' on the end of the redirect url. I used an extra concat below
<input type="button" value="Submit" name="btnSave" onclick="javascript: {ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent(concat('__commit;__redirect={lists/MyListName/DispForm.aspx?ID=',/dsQueryResponse/Rows/Row/#ID,'}'))}" />
I am not sure where the ID will exist on the page you host the Javascript from. Does it appear in the querystring or on a field on the page?
There is nothing in the request or response that will identify the item. I have had this issue when doing some web loadtesting.
I can only suggest that your create the item using the webservices as that at gives you some return xml.
This answer does not solve the "new form" issue, but it might help others with the syntax for screens that contain existing list items.
I tested this quickly in my SharePoint (MOSS 2007) environment.
onclick="javascript: {ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent(concat('__commit;__redirect={NewFormWizard2.aspx?id=',/dsQueryResponse/Rows/Row/#ID))}"
The concat syntax is an XSLT instruction that tells the processor to combine the values enclosed in single quotes. I adapted this answer from info I found here.
Loading Values in a Custom List Form
http://wssdevelopment.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
I hope this would be helpfull:
1- In SharePoint Designer create new page, call it for example "LastItem.aspx" and place a dataview on it with a single form view for the destination list item.
2-Limit paging to just one record, set the sorting by ID and descending and filter the list to just show item which is created by [current user].
3-Now you do not need to pass any query string to this page. just replace the default "OK" button in NewForm.aspx of the list with a standard HTML input button and add this to its definition "onclick="javascript: {ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent(concat('__commit;__redirect={LastItem.aspx}". After submitting a new item to list you will be redirected to an edit view of the created item.
You can do the same for save button in LastItem.aspx to redirect to some other page after clicking on save button.
found an approach using pure javascript (JQuery) and the SPAPI code from http://darrenjohnstone.net/.
The list contains two fields, title and BodyCopy
I've thewn created a form that asks for a title and a question, both text fields, then the submit button calls the following function: (note that ServerAddress and LIST_question need to be updated to your own details).
The function then uploads the details using the SOAP service within LISTS.ASMX and using the response gets the ID of the new item and redirects the page.
var LIST_question = '{xxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}';
var ServerAddress = 'http://xxx/';
function submitQuestion()
{
var title = new String($("#title").val());
var t = new String($("#question").val());
t=t.trim();
if(t=="")
return;
title=title.trim();
if(title=="")
return;
var lists = new SPAPI_Lists(ServerAddress) ;
//
var newItem = { Title : title, BodyCopy : t};
var items = lists.quickAddListItem(LIST_question, newItem);
var id=-1;
if (items.status == 200)
{
var rows = items.responseXML.getElementsByTagName('z:row');
if(rows.length ==1)
{
var r = rows[0];
var id = r.getAttribute('ows_ID');
window.location.href='DispForm.aspx?ID='+id;
}
else
{
alert("Error: No row added");
}
}
else
{
alert('There was an error: ' + items.statusText);
return;
}
}
