I am editing a plone page to open an Excel document on a specific sheet. I created two buttons to see if either would appear as actual buttons and use the JS function I reference. With this code the exact part of the page looks like the image below.
Why is only text showing instead of the button and why is the onclick attribute not working?
Note: I have changed to links to the spreadsheet for posting it on here but the link has been tested on other webpages
<script type="text/javascript">
function Open_Excel_File(path,sheet)
{
fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
if (!fso.FileExists(path))
alert("Cannot open file.\nFile '" + path + "' doesn't exist.");
else
{
var myApp = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application");
if (myApp != null)
{
myApp.visible = true;
Book = myApp.workbooks.open(path);
var excel_sheet = Book.Worksheets(sheet).Activate;
myApp.range(f_range).Select;
}
else {
alert ("Cannot open Excel application");
}
}
}
</script>
<div>
<button onclick='Open_Excel_File("file://///fs-01\Departments\Underwriting\Statistical%20Data%20and%20Medical%20Information\Statistics\Cancers\Cancer%20Statistics%\Cancer%20Statistics%.xlsx", "Vulvar Ca");'>Open File</button>
<input type="button" onclick="Open_Excel_File('file://///fs-01\deps\uw\stat%20Data%20and%20Medical%20Information\Statistics\Cancers\Cancer%20Statistics%202018\Cancer%20Statistics%.xlsx', 'VCA');'>OPEN FILE</input>
</div>
your onclick value is not a function, it is the result of a function call. Try to change that to onclick="Open_Excel_File"; You'll have to provide the file path at some point
Accessing file system from browser is super restricted for security matters, the only way I see fit is to have a file input and using what user provides
Also Plone filter out a bounce of potential "nasty" tags through a specific configurable tool.
It seems to me that you have injected the in the source HTML of a Page (document) type.
If so, you will see in your browser that in, the page source code, the script tag has been totally stripped away.
So,
a correct way to inject some js in your page, is to load it as portal_javascript resource (plone<=4) or in resource_registry (plone>=5).
tha nasty way is to access, in the ZMI, at https://yourseite:8080/Plone/portal_transforms/safe_html/ and configure it to accept script tags inside a document (all document in your site actually).
If this answer does not satisfy you try to ask in the official community:

Here's the issue:
Got multiple internal links on the web, still not connected to actual html files.
Im working with local files for the time being
Wanna make js redirect all of the dead links to one particular page (let's call the file: 404-error-page.html) up until I will finish the rest of html files to make those dead links active again
Purpose: wanna keep user away from seeing 404 blank page and instead show em some temporary page (404-error-page.html)
Sorry if that's messy - 1st time adding a question here.
HTML
<html><body><a href="random-link-directing-to-a-non-existing-page"></body></html>
JS
$('a').on('click', function(event) {
var $element = $(event.target);
var link = "404-error-page.html";
if(result.broken) {
if(result.http.response && ![undefined, 500].includes(result.http.response.statusCode)) {
event.preventDefault();
document.location.href = link;
}
}
});
I've already tried some alterations of this code but it's not working for me.
Firstly, need to make this functional on local files and then ofc online.
Any ideas?
Set the data-dead-link attribute to all your unfinished link tag as the follow.
Correct Link
<a data-dead-link>Dead Link</a>
<a data-dead-link>Dead Link</a>
Before the </body> tag insert the follow script
var deadLinks = document.querySelectorAll(`[data-dead-link]`)
deadLinks.forEach(el => {
el.href = "404-error-page.html"
})
I have a very basic knowledge of javascript and I have been unable to find a solution for my specific use of the Adobe View SDK API, though it seems like there should be a way. I am working on a web page to show newsletters in the pdf viewer. I have created a w3.css modal element so that I can open the viewer with a button click, and then close it with an "x" in the corner. The button click and the "x" toggle between the display style being "none" or "block". I really like this solution as it lets me use small images of the newsletters as the buttons, and it can be observed here: Test News Page by clicking on the newsletter image below May 4, 2020.
The ultimate goal I have is to be able to change the name of the pdf document that is opened in the viewer by clicking the button, which would need to pass a string variable called "docName" to the url called by the View SDK script. Since the url is already specified in the script inside my modal element when the page loads, here is the thinking I have for the additional script I need to pass my string variables: The button-click invokes my script (function changeName(docName)) and passes the "docName" variable. Then my script needs to pass this variable to the url in the View script (this is the part I don't know how to do), then refresh the page to reload my modal, and then change the display style of the modal to "block". I will copy the code for the View SDK below, showing where I need to insert the string variable with my document name:
<script src="https://documentcloud.adobe.com/view-sdk/main.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.addEventListener("adobe_dc_view_sdk.ready", function(){
var adobeDCView = new AdobeDC.View({clientId: "06179511ab964c9284f1b0887eca1b46", divId: "adobe-dc-view"});
adobeDCView.previewFile({
content:{location: {url: "https://www.shcsfarmington.org/" + docName + ".pdf"}},
metaData:{fileName: "Newsletter_050420.pdf"}
}, {embedMode: "FULL_WINDOW", defaultViewMode: "FIT_WIDTH"});
});
</script>
It seems like this should work, but with my limited knowledge of javascript I don't know how to pass this variable to the anonymous function in the View SDK code, and I would need as much detail and specifics in the syntax of the solution. I appreciate any help with this. Thanks.
EDIT: I thought maybe it would help to show the code for the function that I have come up with so far - then it could be examined and easier to debug and comment on:
<button id="CSS-050420" onclick="changeDoc('Newsletter_050420');"></button>
<script>
function changeDoc(docName) {
/* Need to pass docName to url=https://shcsfarmington.org/2020/news/Newsletter_" + newsDate + ".pdf"; */
window.location.reload(true);
document.getElementById('viewerModal').style.display='block';
}
</script>
I created a CodePen here for you to look at.
Basically, you'll load the first file when the SDK is ready but then you need to set the adobeDCView to null before recreating it.
function showPDF(url) {
adobeDCView = null;
fetch(url)
.then((res) => res.blob())
.then((blob) => {
adobeDCView = new AdobeDC.View({
// This clientId can be used for any CodePen example
clientId: "e800d12fc12c4d60960778b2bc4370af",
// The id of the container for the PDF Viewer
divId: "adobe-dc-view"
});
adobeDCView.previewFile(
{
content: { promise: Promise.resolve(blob.arrayBuffer()) },
metaData: { fileName: url.split("/").slice(-1)[0] }
},
{
embedMode: "FULL_WINDOW",
defaultViewMode: "FIT_PAGE",
showDownloadPDF: true,
showPrintPDF: true,
showLeftHandPanel: false,
showAnnotationTools: false
}
);
});
}
The link click even will pass the url to the PDF and then display it.
I am trying to use the function below to open an excel document on a specific sheet. When I used it on a standalone HTML document the function worked.
The Plone filtering is enabled to allow <script>
The site is running on IE 11 as I understand you must to use an ActiveXobject.
The text doesn't even underline in Plone like it does on my standalone test page I created.
Why exactly does the function not work in Plone?
<script type="text/javascript">
function Open_Excel_File(path,sheet)
{
fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
if (!fso.FileExists(path))
alert("Cannot open file.\nFile '" + path + "' doesn't exist.");
else
{
var myApp = new ActiveXObject("Excel.Application");
if (myApp != null)
{
myApp.visible = true;
Book = myApp.workbooks.open(path);
var excel_sheet = Book.Worksheets(sheet).Activate;
myApp.range(f_range).Select;
}
else {
alert ("Cannot open Excel application");
}
}
}
</script>
<input type="button" value="Load" onclick="Open_Excel_File('C:\\Users\\user\\Desktop\\test1.xlsm', 'sheet2');"> </input>
Open with Href
you have to allow the needed tags in the html filter control panel. please don't use the properties in the ZMI anymore if you are using recend Plone version's. As the configuration is now saved in the plone.registry
Assuming you are injecting this javascript in a standard plone document page (or any rich texteditor field) you should enable <script> tag in ZMI:Plone/portal_transform/safe_html.
BTW, the best place to have support is official community: https://community.plone.org
Basically I'm trying to build a functionality in which I only really edit my index.php, I got a lot of other php files with just a form in them or just a few lines of text.
What I want to achieve is to load these other files in the contentwrapper of my index.php.
I have been successfull on doing this with an iframe and with a html <object>.
The problem with these though is that first of all they load an all new #document in the DOM, and also my webpage has no set height so height: 100% won't work on those and I would get these ugly scrollbars and stuff.
after searching a lot on SO today I found a few interesting solutions which I combined, this is what I'm trying now:
<script type="text/javascript" href="js/csi.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function load_content(target){
document.getElementById('contentwrapper').innerHTML='<div data-include="' + target + '" ></div>';
return false;
}
</script>
now you may question what data-include is, this is a very nice workaround I found on SO.
THIS is what it does, it basically calls a .js file that replaces the containing element with the data that is in the file (target in the above example)
I call this functionality like this:
Update profile
It works as far as adding this to the DOM:
<div id="contentwrapper">
<div data-include="update.php" ></div>
</div>
but besides that it does nothing, I think that it doesn't call the .js file for the data-include attribute. But I can't find a solution for this nowhere.
(BTW: the data-include attribute does work if I put it in a tag manually without javascript)
I Hope I didn't overexplain the situation, and I thank everyone that tries to help in advance!
The csi.js script is only run once after the page is loaded. It just goes over all the elements with the data-include attribute and runs the fragment function.
<script type="text/javascript">
function fragment(el, url) {
var localTest = /^(?:file):/,
xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(),
status = 0;
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function() {
/* if we are on a local protocol, and we have response text, we'll assume
* things were sucessful */
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4) {
status = xmlhttp.status;
}
if (localTest.test(location.href) && xmlhttp.responseText) {
status = 200;
}
if (xmlhttp.readyState == 4 && status == 200) {
el.outerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
}
}
try {
xmlhttp.open("GET", url, true);
xmlhttp.send();
} catch(err) {
/* todo catch error */
}
}
function load_content(target){
fragment(document.getElementById('contentwrapper'), target);
return false;
}
</script>
Then call it like this:
Update profile
So, the only thing you need is to call this function for the new created element. Pass the DOM element and the url to this function and it will take care of loading the contents of the requested resource in the corresponding element.
May we assume that you followed this advise from the repository: The only caveat is Chrome, which restricts access to local files via AJAX. To resolve this, simply add --allow-file-access-from-files to your Chrome runtime.
If you didn't, and you're using Chrome, then this stands out to me, and you didn't indicate that you'd corrected the security block that Chrome puts in place.
The csi.js only runs on window.onload.
Try
<a href="#" onclick="function() {load_content('update.php'); window.onload(); }">
Update profile</a>
I have a web project developed in Flex which I have to make work standalone using AIR.
I created Air project and loaded the web application using flash.html.HTMLLoader.
The content is loading fine and working.
There are few buttons which open different links using javascript functions window.open.
The links are not opening. The javascript function is getting called using ExternalInterface and I placed alerts in that which is displaying.
The function contains simple window.open
window.open("http://www.google.co.in","Google");
I tried several solutions mentioned but none of them are working.

http://soenkerohde.com/2008/09/air-html-with-_blank-links/
http://cookbooks.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=showdetails&postId=9243
I even tried loading a simple page in HTMLLoader component with window.open method still it is not working. On button click only alert is working but window.open is not opening the link.
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<body scroll="no">
<input type="button" value="Click" onClick="window.open('http://www.google.co.in');">
</body>
</html>
Could some one help me please
This is a radical suggestion that may or may not work, but I think it's worth a try.
Override the window.open method itself
As before, wait until the Event.COMPLETE is fired, then take it from there:
var html:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader();
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("whatever.html");
var oldWindowOpen:Object; // save it, just in case
html.load(urlReq);
html.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
function (event:Event):void {
oldWindowOpen = html.window.open;
html.window.open = asWindowOpen;
});
function asWindowOpen(href:String, name:String="_blank", specs:Object=null, replace:Object=null):void {
var urlReq = new air.URLRequest(href);
air.navigateToURL(urlReq);
}
You should probably fill out some of the function to handle the other inputs as specified in the W3Schools Reference for Window open() Method. You may have to (or want to) change all the parameter types to Object, just to be safe, since, unlike ExternalInterface interactions, the JavaScript-ActionScript types are not automatically typecast across the AIR-WebKit exchange.
The AIR Webkit environment is quite restrictive in its support for the window.open method. See Adobe documentation on Restrictions on calling the JavaScript window.open() method.
The easiest way to deal with this is just let the system's default browser open the links. Adobe documents this very question, and shows how you can pop open url's from within AIR:
var url = "http://www.adobe.com";
var urlReq = new air.URLRequest(url);
air.navigateToURL(urlReq);
Generalizing this:
function openExternalLink(href:String):void {
var urlReq = new air.URLRequest(href);
air.navigateToURL(urlReq);
}
One option: Assuming you're running jQuery on the page, you could have all the links open externally as so:
var html:HTMLLoader = new HTMLLoader();
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("whatever.html");
html.load(urlReq);
html.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,
function completeHandler(event:Event):void {
html.window.jQuery('a').click(clickHandler);
});
function clickHandler( e:Object ):void {
if (e.target && e.target.href) {
openExternalLink(e.target.href);
}
e.preventDefault();
}
For more on handling DOM Events in ActionScript, see the relevant Adobe Documentation.
None of that is tested, but hopefully it gives a rough outline.
Otherwise, if you are trying to do something fancy, like pop up AIR windows with HTMLLoader frames in them, I did find one blog post discussing that: Opening links in AIR’s HTML loader
