I'm using a the extension library value picker to select a Name. Once the user hits Ok, I need to use the selected value to populate several other fields. But I can't figure out how to fire a SSJS function from the Ok button.
Thanks for any suggestions.

You can fire an event from the field that the value picker updates.
Here's a simple example that updates another field when the value picker is used:
<xe:djextListTextBox id="inputField">
<xp:eventHandler event="onChange" submit="true" refreshMode="complete">
<xe:this.action><![CDATA[#{javascript:getComponent("testField").setValue(getComponent("inputField").getValue())}]]></xe:this.action>
</xp:eventHandler>
</xe:djextListTextBox>
<xe:valuePicker id="valuePicker1" for="inputField">
<xe:this.dataProvider>
<xe:simpleValuePicker valueList="1,2,3" valueListSeparator=","></xe:simpleValuePicker>
</xe:this.dataProvider>
</xe:valuePicker>
<xp:br />
<xp:inputText id="testField"></xp:inputText>

On my XPages form I have a checkbox control:
<xp:checkBox
id="cbPromo"
value="#{employeeBean.employee.promoCheck}"
valueChangeListener="#{employeeBean.onPromotChange}"
checkedValue="true"
uncheckedValue="false"
disabled="#{!employeeBean.employee.editable}">
<xp:eventHandler
event="onclick"
submit="true"
refreshMode="partial"
refreshId="pnlUpdate"
execMode="partial" />
</xp:checkBox>
</xp:panel>
The problem is when I change the edit mode for the employee object (default is editable = false) the checkbox control which was in read mode checked becomes unchecked.
When I add a computed text control to see what the value for the promoCheck field its is both in read and edit mode true:
<xp:text escape="true" id="computedField1"
value="#{employeeBean.employee.promoCheck}">
</xp:text>
Can someone explain me what I should do to keep the checkbox control checked when I switch the editable mode for my employee object?
don't use the disabled property, but the readonly property instead
I have a document that was created using a copyallitems. That document has 2 body fields, and they both have the issummary flag to false.
As soon as I do a document1.save(), both rich text fields now have the flag set to true.
Any idea why the flag would be set to true by saving the document? These fields are not used in any views. I thought that rich text fields were not suppose get the summary flagged when saved.
Both rich text fields are set to store content as MIME...
Any clues on how to avoid the flag from being set, or how to remove the flag before saving (or after, or whatever) the document?
Running on Domino Release 9.0.1FP3 HF241
Here is sample code that recreates the problem, when adding more than 32Kb od text in the rich text field:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xp:view xmlns:xp="http://www.ibm.com/xsp/core"><xp:span style="font-weight:bold"></xp:span>
<xp:label id="label1" styleClass="h1" value="Test Issummary"></xp:label>
<xp:span style="font-weight:bold"></xp:span>
<xp:this.data>
<xp:dominoDocument computeWithForm="onsave" formName="fPage" var="document1"/>
</xp:this.data>
<xp:br></xp:br>
<xp:br></xp:br>
Subject:
<xp:inputText id="inputText1" value="#{document1.Subject}"
style="width:569.0px">
</xp:inputText>
<xp:br></xp:br>Status:
<xp:inputText id="inputText2" defaultValue="Draft" value="#{document1.Status}"></xp:inputText>
<xp:br></xp:br>
<xp:br></xp:br>Body:<xp:br></xp:br>
<xp:inputRichText id="inputRichText1" style="width:100%"
value="#{document1.Body}" htmlConversionWarning="noWarning"
htmlFilter="identity" htmlFilterIn="identity">
</xp:inputRichText>
<xp:br></xp:br>
<xp:br></xp:br>
<xp:br></xp:br>
<xp:button value="Save" id="button1"
style="width:122.0px;height:29.0px">
<xp:eventHandler event="onclick" submit="true" refreshMode="complete">
<xp:this.action>
<xp:actionGroup>
<xp:saveDocument var="document1"></xp:saveDocument>
<xp:openPage name="/adminDrafts.xsp"></xp:openPage>
</xp:actionGroup>
</xp:this.action></xp:eventHandler></xp:button>
</xp:view>
Once saved, the document cannot be opened anymore as the infamous 32k error message is displayed.
If I save with less than 32K, the document is ok, but the rich text field has the issummary flag to yes... That is mostly the cause of my problem...
As you are using option computeWithForm make sure your form "fPage" contains your rich text field and is of type rich text. Otherwise it might get converted to a normal text field.
Use option computeWithForm only if you really need to as it an expensive operation.
I'm trying to set a value to a field ( which is not inside the repeat control ) from a field which is on the repeat control.
The field from the repeat:
<xp:inputText id="inputText2" disabled="true">
<xp:this.value><![CDATA[#{viewScope.field_2[index]}]]></xp:this.value>
<xp:eventHandler event="onchange" submit="true"
refreshMode="partial" refreshId="sus">
<xp:this.action><![CDATA[#{javascript:getComponent("inputText4").setValue("1234");}]]></xp:this.action>
</xp:eventHandler>
</xp:inputText>
And the target field , as you can notice, is inside a panel, id="sus".
Also the target field is binded to a form field.
but no value is assigned. How can I achieve this?
Components are only visualizations of a data model behind. Always bind your controls and go after the model value, never the component. A disabled inputText can't fire a value and in the code snippet above you have disabled="true". The onchange event can't fire.
This would work:
<xp:inputText id="inputText2" disabled="false">
<xp:this.value><![CDATA[#{viewScope.field_2[index]}]]></xp:this.value>
<xp:eventHandler event="onchange" submit="true"
refreshMode="partial" refreshId="sus">
<xp:this.action><![CDATA[#{javascript:viewScope.someValue=42;}]]></xp:this.action>
</xp:eventHandler>
</xp:inputText>
Your target control would look like this:
<xp:inputText id="inputText4" value="#{viewScope.someValue}">
</xp:inputText>
If your target control is bound to something else (e.g. #{document1.test}), they your code needs to update that one. (document1.replaceItemValue("test",42))
Again 3 important aspects:
Never go after UI elements, always update the bound model behind (a.k.a: Talk to the data, not the UI also known as: The Controller updates the MODEL, not the view)
Make sure your target is part of the refreshed fields
Disabled fields don't fire events
Let us know how it goes
I have 2 edit Boxes, 1 is editable, the other just prints the name of the sessionScope, both fields are in a in 2 cells next to each other , see code below, inputText1 is a editable text field, inputText2 is non editable text, printing #{sessionScope.Tmp1_ABC}
<xp:td>
<xp:inputText id="inputText1"
loaded="true">
<xp:this.value><![CDATA[${javascript:var fieldName = "Tmp_" + #ReplaceSubstring(varcollection," ","");
return '#{sessionScope.' + #ReplaceSubstring(fieldName,#List(" ",")","("),"") + '}';}]]></xp:this.value>
<xp:eventHandler
event="onchange" submit="true" refreshMode="partial"
refreshId="panel_1" />
</xp:inputText>
</xp:td>
<xp:td>
<xp:inputText id="inputText2"
loaded="true">
<xp:this.value><![CDATA[#{javascript:var fieldName = "Tmp1_" + #ReplaceSubstring(varcollection," ","");
return '#{sessionScope.' + #ReplaceSubstring(fieldName,#List(" ",")","("),"") + '}';}]]></xp:this.value>
<xp:eventHandler
event="onchange" submit="true" refreshMode="partial"
refreshId="panel_1" />
</xp:inputText>
</xp:td>
AFAIK you can't assemble your data binding that way. Data binding is an EL expression, not SSJS. You could try to trick using ${} to compute #{}
As per Stefan, using SSJS (javascript:) to define a value for an input control results in it only being read-only. For values to be editable they must be bound using Expression Language (EL). For something as complex as the example (looping over a list of field/variable) you will most likely have to learn a little Java to allow you to connect your input controls to the bean via EL. If the purpose of the code is to have one field editable and the other read-only you should (as Per suggested) change the control from being an inputText to just (computed) text or a label and remove the event handler. Somebody reading the code could easily be confused in thinking you intended both to be editable.
I'm going crazy: I cannot access the selected value of a combobox in the onchange event:
<xp:comboBox id="comboBox1" value="#{sessionScope.groupBy}">
<xp:selectItem itemLabel="nothing" itemValue=""></xp:selectItem>
<xp:selectItem itemLabel="State" itemValue="state"></xp:selectItem>
<xp:selectItem itemLabel="CCType" itemValue="cctype"></xp:selectItem>
<xp:eventHandler event="onchange" submit="true" refreshMode="complete">
<xp:this.action>
<xp:executeScript>
<xp:this.script>
<![CDATA[
#{javascript:sessionScope.groupBy = getComponent("comboBox1").getValue();
print( getComponent("comboBox1").getValue() )}
]]>
</xp:this.script>
</xp:executeScript>
</xp:this.action>
</xp:eventHandler>
</xp:comboBox>
I want to store the value and reload the page to access the value I just submitted. I also tried getSubmittedValue() and value only. They always return null.
What is the trick here?
I have a problem similar to that one but if I understand your quandary I may have a solution. You are trying to capture the value of a combo box field that you select correct? Here is the code for the combo box (name: POVendor). The view I'm drawing the list from is named "PLBV".
#DbColumn(#DbName(), "PLBV", 1)
Here is the code for the Computed field that captures the value of the selection in the combo box. Just do a partial refresh on the computed field from the combo box & it should work fine.
var item = document1.getValue("POVendor");
return item;
I was facing the similar issue, tried the below option and it worked for me.
Set the Server Options on the onChange event of the combobox to Full Update and check the option "Process Data without validation
This will give you the desired result.(Your sessionScope.groupBy will be set to the new selected value of the combobox.
