I'm a total JavaScript/jQuery n00b, so please forgive me in advance.
Imagine there's a webpage (W1) which displays a list of items (I1, I2, ...). Now there's a second webpage W2 which displays W1 in a FancyBox'ed iframe (<a class="iframe" href="addressof(W1)">Pick items</a>).
Each item inside a W1 has a JavaScript handler attached to its click event, which does this:
function SetOpenerClient(id, name,isHoldings)
{
var _hfBackPath = document.getElementById('ctl00_main_hfBackPath');
var url = _hfBackPath.value;
window.navigate(url +"?id="+id+"&name="+name+"&isHol="+isHoldings);
}
The usual way this whole mess is used is by window.open()ing a window and providing a "backpath":
window.open(addressof(W1) + "?backpath=" + addressOfHandlerThisWebSite,
"selectClient",
"status=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,scrollbars=yes")
Now here's whay my investigations show. Whenever a user click on an item inside of W1, it niavigates back to backpath (_hfBackPath from SetOpenerClient()), which happens to be a specially crafted page which grabs id querystring parameter, stuffs it inside a Session and does all kinds of other stuff.
When W1 gets opened inside an iframe, Chrome complains:
Uncaught TypeError: Object [object DOMWindow] has no method 'navigate'
Here's whay I want (by the way, there's $50 bill glued under your chair) and I really hope this is possible. I want to "redefine" window.navigate method to so that I could handle item selection manually. Is this possible? My naive attempts of setting
DOMWindow.navigate = function () { alert("window.navigate"); };
apparently don't do anything.

I have an Angular 4 application in which I need to add the following functionality:
There is a component with a list of objects. When the user double clicks on one of them, the app retrieves from a DB a list of objects and it should scroll to where the object appears.
I'd like to know how I could move to the desired position in the data once that it has been displayed in the browser. Right now, I have the following code:
let objElement = document.querySelector("#object_"+searchItem._objectID);
if (objElement){
objElement.scrollIntoView();
console.log("****** SCROLLING TO OBJECT");
}
The problem is that, the first time that I load the data from the DB, it seems that 'document.querySelector' returns null, as if the HTML wasn't 100% constructed yet, so it doesn't scroll to the position. If I try to locate the element again, it scrolls perfectly (as it doesn't reload the data from the DB).
Is there a "more Angular" way of doing this? I'm trying to find an example like this in the Angular Router documentation but I can't find anything...
EDIT:
To make things clearer, this is the pseudo-code that I run when the user selects an object:
if(selectedObject IS IN currentLoadedObjects) {
scrollTo(selectedObject); // This function runs the code above
}
else { // The object is in a different list, so retrieve it from the DB
ObjectService.getObjectListFromDB(selectedObject)
.subscribe((returnedList) => {
displayObjectList(returnedList); // Basically, this function parses the returned data, which is displayed in the template using an *ngFor loop
scrollTo(selectedObject);
});
}
As you can see, I try to scroll to the object inside the 'subscribe' method, once that I have the data from the database and after I've parsed it. The object list is pretty big, so it takes 1-2 seconds to be displayed in the browser.
Thanks!
Here is a drop down list in SmartClient: http://www.smartclient.com/#dropdownGrid.
I want to make a selection using JavaScript. Like, I run some JavaScript in console, and the drop list will select a specific item.
I did some research, found a code snap to do this (the code is in Java, but I think there should be similar functions in JavaScript):
Record rec = perdomainGrid.getRecordList().find("domaine_id", domaine_id);
perdomainGrid.selectSingleRecord(rec);
If I want to make selection, first I need to obtain perdomainGrid object. In my above giving link, the drop down list id in GWT is exampleForm (can be seen in dropDownGrid.js tab). I try to get the object by:
var form = isc.DynamicForm.getById("exampleForm");
form does exist, but there is no getRecordList() function on it, there is selectSingleRecord() function on it though.
I try to check form's class by form.className, its value is normal. I don't know what does that mean.
I'm kind of confused now. Could somebody help me on this?
isc_SelectItem_5 has a function called pickValue(), it takes one parameter SKU. This function can be used to select item.
var itemName = "Letter Tray Front Load Tenex 200 Class Blk #23001";
var data = isc_SelectItem_5.optionDataSource.cacheData;
var targetSKU = data.find(function(e) {
if (e.itemName == itemName) {
return e;
}
}).SKU;
isc_SelectItem_5.pickValue(targetSKU);
I have an ajax call that builds a small graph in a popup window. The html for the link is re-used in many different links for different devices on the page. What happens, is that when you click a graph for the first device, you get that device. You click a button for the second device, you get that device, however, if you keep clicking away, after the third click or so, you suddenly start getting only the first device, over and over. I think my variables are being cached in some odd way, and I don't understand:
the HTML:
<a class="bluebtn graphbutton ingraph" href="http://wasat/cgi-bin/rrdjson.cgi?res=3600&start=-24h&end=now-1h&uid=28.7B2562040000" data-uid="28.7B2562040000" data-name="Laundry Room Freezer"></a>
<a class="bluebtn graphbutton ingraph" href="http://wasat/cgi-bin/rrdjson.cgi?res=3600&start=-24h&end=now-1h&uid=28.F7A962040000" data-uid="28.F7A962040000" data-name="Garage Temp"></a>
The code in question:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.graphbutton').click(function(e) {
var formURL = $(this).attr("href");
var uid = $(this).data("uid");
var name = $(this).data("name");
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: formURL,
dataType: "json",
cache: false,
context: this,
success: function(data){
console.log("calling mkgraph with uid "+uid+" name " +name);
make_graph(data.data, uid, name);
},
error: function(ts) {
console.log(ts.responseText); }
});
}); /* clickfunc */
}); /*docready */
What happens:
Click freezer:
"calling mkgraph with uid 28.7B2562040000 name Laundry Room Freezer"
Click Garage:
"calling mkgraph with uid 28.F7A962040000 name Garage Temp"
Click Garage again:
"calling mkgraph with uid 28.7B2562040000 name Laundry Room Freezer"
Some of these links are being manufactured by the make_graph() function. I'm a bit worried that this is the issue, and somehow the ajax thing needs to be re-initialized after doing this?
By request, the relevant code in make_graph() that I think is causing my issue here. Basically, I'm editing the buttons in the css popup on the fly, and I think this is creating a wierd situation where the ajax binding is bound to the old href, and not being updated, even though the link is correct in the produced html. This is consistent with the effect where the binding only gets mangled on the third attempt.
$(".ingraph").each(function() {
this.href = $(this).attr("href").replace(/uid=.*/g, 'uid=' + uid);
this.setAttribute('data-uid' ,uid);
if (devname.length > 0) {
this.setAttribute('data-name', devname);
}
});
EDIT: adding a long answer:
I have multiple buttons on the main page. Each one specifies a "uid" that gets fed to rrdjson.cgi, which takes the uid and finds the data for that device, and returns it as json. When make_graph() recieves this json data, it populates a css popup, with the graph, and edits 5 buttons so they reference that UID. Those 5 buttons change the timescale of the graph by re-requesting the data from rrdjson.cgi.
What I am worried is happening, is that I click on the frige, it changes the uid's of the buttons inside the popup to reference the frige. Then I close that, click on the garage, it also changes the uid's and correctly shows the garage data. Then I click on one of the buttons inside the popup for the garage, and poof, I get the refrigerator again. I suspect that ajax "remembers" the old values for $(this).attr("href") etc and passes those values to the code, rather than re-reading the contents of the HTML. (perhaps instead of HTML, I meant DOM there, I'm a little vauge on the difference, but I suspect I meant DOM)
Maybe the answer is to somehow un-register the ajax binding to those buttons and re-register it every time make_graph() changes them? How would I do the un-register? .off() ? .unbind() ?
After much gnashing of teeth, and google, I have answered my own question.
https://forum.jquery.com/topic/jquery-data-caching-of-data-attributes
Turns out, jquery caches "data" types, but not attr types. So when I do:
uid = $(this).data("uid");
vs
uid = $(this).attr("data-uid");
I get wildly different results. I guess the moral of the story is that .data is super evil.. :)
If you add a random value to your url like
var formURL = $(this).attr("href")+"?rv="+Math.random();
you'll force the ajax call to reload the URL. You can use the cache property (set it to false) JQuery will load the data again, but any proxy may send a cached version.
(Please check that there are no other attributes set in the url, otherwise set "&rv="+Math.random(); (& instead of ?) use
var formURL = $(this).attr("href");
formURL + (formURL.indexOf("?") > 0 ? "&rv=" : "?rv=" )+ Math.random();
Your problem should not have something to do with make_graph() as uid and name depend on $('.graphbutton')
(if not make_graph(), or some other function, changes the attributes of your buttons)
ive been trying for ages now to pass the value with little success, the image below is what I am aiming for:
and this is the table structure/relationships
cheers for any help you can give me guys, this is beginning to be a real pain in the arse
based on this I managed to solve my issue by doing the following
LightSwitch: Passing data from one screen to another -> for Desktop Client
For HTML Client
You MUST have a parameter on the screen from which you are passing the data, this is done by creating a data item, i.e. int in the below example, and in the post render code for this use the following code:
myapp.ViewDeliveryNote.DeliveryIDPass_postRender = function (element, contentItem) {
contentItem.screen.DeliveryIDPass = //created parameter
contentItem.screen.DeliveryNote.DeliveryID; //the unique ID from the screen
};
On the screen you want to pass to, add a new data item as that datatype OR if you are using it as a search parameter, use this.
Find the parameter/data item you added on the left hand panel and click on the item, now in the properties window tick (is parameter)
If there was a previous link between the pages via a button, remove the on tap and re-add it... you will now see an additional box where the application is asking for the value to pass, select the one you want and that shoud work :)
hope this helps
This used to work, but for some reason it doesn't anymore. I use a javascript to change the source of an iframe and then refresh it. The reason is I want to send a variable into the iframe before it is viewed.
I added som debug code, and it shows "debug 1" but not "debug 2".
What might be the issue?
$("#upload_iframe").attr("src", "/editor/upload/?dir=" + dir);
// ---------------------------------
// THESE LINES DON'T WORK - STOPS AFTER FIRST DEBUG IS RUN...
// ---------------------------------
alert('debug 1');
$("#upload_iframe").contentWindow.location.reload(true);
alert('debug 2');
// ---------------------------------
$("#upload_file").dialog('open');
As you want to access the dom and not the jquery object you should add [0] :
$("#upload_iframe") //is an array of matching dom objects
$("#upload_iframe")[0] //is the first matching dom object
You might also add a random string to prevent browser caching:
$("#upload_iframe")[0].contentWindow.location.href = "/editor/upload/?dir=" + dir + "&rid=" + Math.random();
Personally, I've not had much luck using the "reload()" method. Try this:
$("#upload_iframe").contentWindow.location.href = $("#upload_iframe").contentWindow.location.href;
