[jira] [Created] (OFBIZ-4915) LookupDecorator not working with
Arabic characters
Taher Alkhateeb created OFBIZ-4915:
--------------------------------------
Summary: LookupDecorator not working with Arabic characters
Key: OFBIZ-4915
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-4915
Project: OFBiz
Issue Type: Bug
Components: ALL COMPONENTS
Affects Versions: Release Branch 12.04
Reporter: Taher Alkhateeb
Priority: Minor
Any form that uses the LookupDecorator in framework/common/widget/CommonScreens.xml would not return results when searching in Arabic. I suspect the main offender is javascript/jQuery when parsing user input.
For example, if I go to https://localhost:8443/ordermgr/control/findorders and click on "Party ID" pop-up window, and search the firstname or lastname in arabic, no values are returned and the value in the search box changes from arabic to some weird encoding ( e.g. "حسن" becomes Øس٠)

Also, after some investigation, it seems definitely the case of a unicode not being applied. When I convert the above Arabic to unicode and then paste the unicode directly to the input box it works!

Taher Alkhateeb commented on OFBIZ-4915:
----------------------------------------
Well, I'm still investigating this issue. It seems jQuery + AJAX + unicode may misbehave sometimes. Now the solutions I saw are quite nasty digging to the heart of code (e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2178935/jquery-ajax-call-with-unicode-proper-way-to-post-unicode-data)
My objective is not to touch a single line of jQuery anywhere, It should simply be some declaration in CommonScreens.xml of the common component to add unicode support using "layoutSettings.javaScripts[+0]=YourFixHere". However, I'm just not sure what happens after declaring these lookup fields, where the code is executed and what is exactly called. I tried tracing ConfigXMLReader but got lost quickly into it.
I will continue to work some more, but appreciate any push I can get on this.

Hi Taher,
when sending data to the server I used the jQuery serialize() function to read the input parameter form the form. The serialize function uses standard URL encoding. Could this be a problem.
you can find the code in the function lookupFormAjaxRequest().
Have a good day

Hi Paul, thank you for the feedback.
Well, as shown in the attached screenshot, the XmlHttpRequest object is indeed encoded with UTF-8. The "Accept-Language" header is English but I doubt this has any effect on the encoding.
Very intriguing and puzzling. I'm beginning to suspect that the fieldlookup.js script is doing some processing to the text before submitting it to the server that changes the encoding. I'll keep digging, this is one well hidden bug!

Taher Alkhateeb commented on OFBIZ-4915:
----------------------------------------
OK, I think I tracked it to its source which is causing this whole headache:
Basically, $OFBIZ_HOME/framework/widget/templates/HtmlFormMacroLibrary.ftl is calling the script $OFBIZ_HOME//framework/images/webapp/images/fieldlookup.js
More specifically, the template is instantiating a new object using the following code snippet:
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
new ConstructLookup("${fieldFormName}", "${id}", document.${formName?html}.${name?html}, <#if descriptionFieldName?has_content>document.${formName?html}.${descriptionFieldName}<#else>null</#if>, "${formName?html}", "${width}", "${height}", "${position}", "${fadeBackground}", <#if ajaxEnabled?has_content && ajaxEnabled>"${ajaxUrl}", ${showDescription}<#else>"", false</#if>, "${presentation!}", "${defaultMinLength!2}", "${defaultDelay!300}"
I think I need to add [ contentType: "application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8" ] somewhere in this code to make it work

Description:
Any field in a form that uses the <lookup target-form-name="WhateverForm"/> would not return results when searching in Arabic. I suspect the main offender is javascript/jQuery when parsing user input.
For example, if I go to https://localhost:8443/ordermgr/control/findorders and click on "Party ID", and search the firstname or lastname in arabic, no values are returned and the value in the search box changes from arabic to some weird encoding ( e.g. "حسن" becomes Øس٠)
Also, after some investigation, I came to the realization that this only happens when the lookup field has presentation="layer", if however, the presentation="window" then it works normally which leads me to conclude definitely that this is javascript/jQuery issue of parsing input data.
was:
Any form that uses the LookupDecorator in framework/common/widget/CommonScreens.xml would not return results when searching in Arabic. I suspect the main offender is javascript/jQuery when parsing user input.
For example, if I go to https://localhost:8443/ordermgr/control/findorders and click on "Party ID" pop-up window, and search the firstname or lastname in arabic, no values are returned and the value in the search box changes from arabic to some weird encoding ( e.g. "حسن" becomes Øس٠)
Also, after some investigation, it seems definitely the case of a unicode not being applied. When I convert the above Arabic to unicode and then paste the unicode directly to the input box it works!

---------------------------------------
Hi Taher,
ConstructLookup and related functions end up calling jQuery.ajax and don't set a content type. According to the jQuery.ajax docs at
http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/
the default content type is "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", and data will always be transmitted to the server using UTF-8 charset
So maybe the problem is elsewhere. You could use FireBug or some other tool to verify the HTTP request leaving OFBiz and check the content type.
Cheers
Paul Foxworthy

----------------------------------------
Hi Jacques,
Yes I would definitely attempt a solution, However I do need some help since I'm not yet advanced. More specifically, I can trace all business logic but get stuck at the XML level (it becomes sort of like blackbox xerces magic to me). Where should I start debugging to trace what happens after parsing the <lookup> element? I need that to know what javascript code is called exactly. I'm swimming all over place and feel a bit overwhelmed. Any guidance or documentation on the underlying XML parsing infrastructure would be of immense help.
