I have go through the convert properties for an <xe:djNumberTextBox> element, but I didn't find the place to modify the decimal and the thousand.
<xe:djNumberTextBox id="djNumberTextBox1"
value="#{Contr.txt_valcontrcv}">
<xe:this.converter>
<xp:convertNumber></xp:convertNumber>
</xe:this.converter>
</xe:djNumberTextBox>
Currently, the result is: 159,999.00. I want the thousand operator to be . and the decimal one ,.
As always: have a look at the "All properties" pane because not everything is shown in the props tabs. You'll find a "locale" property in the "data, converter" section. Set this to your locale (I guess it's something middle european) and you're done.
For a DojoEditBox you may want to have a look at the Dojo docs regarding constrains/pattern: http://dojotoolkit.org/reference-guide/1.8/dijit/form/NumberTextBox.html#dijit-form-numbertextbox

I want to collect pictures from Google image search. However, I am constantly notified with an error.
For example, the URL https://www.google.com/search?q=banana&hl=en&gws_rd=ssl&tbm=isch is fine in my browser, but in web harvest it reports that: the reference to entity "gws_rd" must end with the ';' delimiter.
I guess '&' is a special character in webharvest, but I cannot find information about it. Can you figure out why?
This is the code:
<var-def name="search" overwrite="false">banana</var-def>
<var-def name="url"><template>http://images.google.com/images?q=${search}&hl=en</template></var-def>
<var-def name="xml">
<html-to-xml>
<http url="${url}"/>
</html-to-xml>
</var-def>
<var-def name="largeImgUrl">
<xpath expression="//*[#id='irc_cc']/div[4]/div[1]/div/div[2]/div[1]/a/img">
<var name="xml"/>
</xpath>
</var-def>
from experience you will need to first store the url in a variable, and then refer to the variable from within the http processor call
EDIT
I notice you have pasted your code. Good.
1) remember that all the webharvest config files are written in XML, and amersand & is a special character in XML, as it is part of the entity declaration
In webharvest i normaly avoid this issue by using CDATA sections within <template> or <code> blocks.
2)when using webharvest graphical interface, you can easily debug your xpath expressions. Run your code as normal, and then on the toolbar at the top click the icon with a magniffying glass. Then choose "xml" (name of your variable you have set). This will open a new window, with a preview of your xml. Make sure the "view as" dropdown is set to xml.
You should now have a "xpath expression" box where you can test your xpath.
3)I strongly discourage from writing xpaths referring to numbered elements. (eg div[4]/div[1]/div/div[2]/div[1]/). Any small change in the underlying page usually breaks the code. It is much better to select elements based on id or other properties.
Is there any possibility to make an editbox in xpages that looks like an editable field - notes style from Lotus Notes? Or to be able to display the field value in more lines, if it necessary ?
I tried adding Auto for the editbox, but it no works.
rows and cols properties allow you to change the size. You can also use Dojo Simple Text Area or Dojo Text Area controls from Ext Lib. The latter auto-expands depending on the content, so rows and cols are not applicable (see the part in XPages Extension Library book on that).
If you're talking about the field handles round the top left and bottom right of a field, I don't think web development supports partial borders. It will be a generic CSS web development solution you require, rather than anything specific to XPages.
I know this is kind of late but here's what I came up with:
https://codepen.io/gcoxdev/pen/MmdrYz
<div class="notes-field">
<div class="notes-editable contenteditable="true"></div>
<textarea name="test"></textarea>
</div>
Of course, you'll have to convert that to xpages markup.
Essentially I'm creating a content-editable div with unicode characters for the handles then updating the underlying textarea with javascript.
You can read my article about it here:

Hope that helps!
I have a gwt button that has a fixed size.
I want to present a text on it, and if that text exceeds the button length, I need to cut it short and put "..." in the end. I use the following code now:
if(name.length() > 11){
//limiting the size of the text presented on the button
name = name.substring(0,10)+"...";
}
I have a list of such buttons, and this approach causes that not all button's text have the same size.
The problem is, for example, that 10 chars of "!" are much shorter than 10 chars of "A".
Can anyone help me with a way to solve this issue?
Thanks!
Fast answer. Try ussing HTML5/CSS3 property. It does exactly that:
http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/css3_pr_text-overflow.asp
If you need to do that for non-CSS3 browsers you'll need to make some kind of fake. Maybe setting a button div content, with overflow-hidden, and placing a floating "..." to the right. But it's more difficult...
You could add a style-class to all those buttons and fix their size.
Should be something like this:
First, add the style-class to each button:
Button button = new Button();
button.addStyleName("buttonSizeStandard");
Then add a matching style in the css file:
.buttonSizeStandard{
width: 200px; //change 200 to whatever
}
I used set to insert a value in a text field under a div.
Below is the approach that I've used without success. This is the only way I was able to identify the element. When I tried to identify text field by name was not recognized.
#browser.div(:evaluation, :id => "evaluation_form_attributes").text_field(:id => "evaluation_form_name")
#browser.set('Teacher Evaluation Form')
The following error was displayed:
undefined method `set' for #<Watir::IE:0x4dd9348>
This is the HTML:
div id="evaluation_form_attributes"
Evaluation name:
input id="evaluation_form_name" type="text" size="50" name="evaluation_form[name]" maxlength="30"
Try this:
browser.text_field(:id => "evaluation_form_name").set 'Teacher Evaluation Form'
Is there an iframe involved perhaps? if you know the thing is there, and you are sure of the ID, and watir cannot locate it, then usually it's because that part of the page is inside of a frame.
To work with elements that are inside of a frame, you must specify the frame, then the element
browser.frame(:how, what).element(:how, what).method etc.
see http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Frames for more info
To set a value for a text field you simply need to find it and set it. The setting part you already know (set), so you need to string together something that finds the text field.
if Zejiko's answer doesn't work because of "unable to locate element" then it's not the setting that's failing, it's finding the text field. Use Firebug (in Firefox) or some kind of DOM toolkit (Tools>Developer Tools or F12 in IE8) to find the text field and see what kind of attributes it has.
Ensure the id is really "evaluation_form_name". This is case sensitive and sensitive to leading/trailing spaces. You could try the following to make your search broader:
#browser.text_field(:id => /evaluation/).set 'Teacher Evaluation Form'
This uses a regular expression to identify the id. You can search by many things, not just :id, and you can use more than one. For example:
#browser.text_field(:id => /eval/, :index => 2)
finds the second text field whose id contains "eval".
What you can use to identify the text field can be found here: https://github.com/watir/watir/wiki/HTML-Elements-Supported-by-Watir
I want to hide the first 6 characters of SSN when user types in the text box. Something like *--1234
Is there any built in tag I can achieve this. Thanks in advance.
The "built in" components of the standard JSF implementation only represents the standard HTML elements. Your functional requirement is not covered by any of those HTML elements, so the standard JSF implementation won't have it as well. The closest one is the HTML <input type="password"> which is provided by JSF <h:inputSecret> component, but this will mask all characters instead of only a specified subset.
Also no 3rd party JSF component libraries comes to mind which is able to do this. You have basically 2 options, an easy one and a harder one.
Split the SSN over two input fields. One <h:inputSecret> and one <h:inputText>. Add if necessary some onkeyup JavaScript helper code which auto-tabs to the next field when 6 characters are entered. In the server side just glue the two parts together.
Use a <h:inputHidden> for the value and a normal <input type="text"> with some onkeydown JavaScript helper code which fills the hidden input and returns the masked character to the visible input for the first 6 characters.
