$link.setAction
Hello,
I have a $link.setAction call that looks like this:
<a href="$link.setAction("myClass").addPathInfo("eventSubmit_doAdd", "add")"> +Add</a>
It is working in the sense that my doAdd function is succesfully being called from "myClass." The problem I am having is with parameter passing. There are two ways I can do this, the way I do it uses javascript to set a hidden field to whatever I need and then I use the data.getParameters() call on the backend to grab the value.
this is what my doAdd function looks like:
public void doAdd(RunData data, Context context) throws Exception
Well, when I do the data.getParameters() call, all I get is 0 for my hidden integer that I set. I verify that the javascript is doing the work with an alert.
Does any one have any suggestions? I have read so many posts on this and none of the solutions seems to work. It seems to me like (RunData data, Context context) are not being correctly passed to my doAdd function.
Thank you in advance for any help,
Luke Majewski

Just a quick note:
you can use
<a href="$link.setActionEvent("myClass", "doAdd")">Add</a>
to get the same effect and is better readable.

You method signture _MUST_ match
public void doSomething(RunData data, Context context) throws Exception
If you add or remove parameters, it won't be called.
If you need parameters, you then do
public void doSomething(RunData data, Context context)
{
int foo = data.getParameters().getInt("foo");
}

Ah, and it doesn't matter whether you pass your parameters from PathInfo (addPathInfo),
HTTP GET parameters (addQueryData) or HTTP POST (e.g. Forms). They all end up in the
parameter parser and you access them from data.getParameters() :
<form action="$link.setAction("FooAction").addQueryData("foo", "a").addPathInfo("foo", "b")" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="foo" value="c">
<input type="submit" value="Click Me" name="eventSubmit_doFootest">
</form>
public class FooAction extends VelocityAction
{
public void doFootest(RunData data, Context context)
{
String [] foos = data.getParameters().getStrings("foo");
log.debug("We got " + foos.length + " parameters");
}
}
should report "3". Please test. If not, it's a bug. ;-)

Re: $link.setAction
Posted by Luke Majewski <lu...@verizon.net>.
Ok, so then if I use the addQueryData technique, how do I declare my
function in my class?
so if I have a doAdd funtion declared like:
public void doAdd(RunData data, Context context, int depth) throws Exception
or
public void doAdd(int depth) throws Exception
this anchor tag:
<a href="$link.setAction("myClass").addPathInfo("eventSubmit_doAdd",
"add").addQueryData("depth", $item.depth)">
does not succesfully call the doAdd on the backend (it defaults to the
doPerform function)
So how do I declare my doAdd in my backend so my link succesfully calls it?
thanks again, almost there I think!

Hi,
I think the problem is that you use a link and you alter a hidden field
from a form. The link does not seem to be in <form action="{link}...">
it seems to be a regular link. When you set a regular link you should
use something like this
<a href="$link.setAction("myClass").addPathInfo("eventSubmit_doAdd",
"add").addQueryData("myfield","1")"> +Add</a>
Or something like
<a href="$link.setAction("myClass").addPathInfo("eventSubmit_doAdd",
"add").addQueryData("myfield","$velocityCount")"> +Add</a>
Hidden fields are only transmitted in the request if sent through a
form.

Here it is, it's exactly how you wrote it.
public void doAdd(RunData data, Context context) throws Exception {
Integer id = (Integer)data.getParameters().getInteger("id");
// do something
}
a call I succesfully use in other places where I have a submit button
and not a submit link.
and this is the javascript on the form... checked all the obvious like
form name, etc:
function doAdd(depth)
{
document.Category.id.value = depth;
}
with a hidden field on the form being declared:
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="0">
pretty standard stuff.
thanks for the help!

Or make it really cool with DOM:
function eventSubmit(formIndex, event)
{
var field = document.createElement('input');
field.type='hidden';
field.name="eventSubmit_do" + event;
field.value='1';
document.forms[formIndex].appendChild(field);
document.forms[formIndex].submit();
}
If you have just one form in your page, you can write
<a href="javascript:eventSubmit("0", "Bla")">Bla</a>
and this small javascript synthesizes a new hidden field and adds it
to your form in the browser. No need for lots of hidden fields.
BTW: Anyone knows a way where I have
<form name="firstform" ....> </form>
<form name="secondform" ....> </form>
in my page and can look for a form object in the page by name?
document.forms[] only allows numbers. and I cannot make
document.<formname> work where <formname> is a variable and not a
constant.

Re: AW: $link.setAction
Posted by Steve Yokanovich <sy...@smythco.com>.
You may need to create two forms within the page, each with it's own set
of input elements. This may not be the best solution but it has worked
for me in the past when I have a limited number of inputs.
<form name="someform" method="post"
action="$link.setAction("myclass").setPage("results.vm")">
<input type="hidden" name="eventSubmit_doAdd" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="otherData" value="1">
<a href="javascript:doSubmit()">Add</a>
</form>
AND
<form name="someform" method="post"
action="$link.setAction("myclass").setPage("results.vm")">
<input type="hidden" name="eventSubmit_doExpand" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="otherData" value="1">
<a href="javascript:doSubmit()">Expand</a>
</form>
Good luck,
Steve Yokanovich

Re: AW: $link.setAction
Posted by Luke Majewski <lu...@verizon.net>.
Thank you for all your replies, they are very helpful. I had seen the
action-event how to and had read about the action.eventsubmit.needsvalue
property but it had not made sense until last night. A fundamental
understanding of how action events and parameters are passed from form to
backend was achieved last night, which makes this much easier. As you say,
there is no difference between addQeueryData, addPathInfo, etc, since they
create the same signature and that is what the backend looks for (btw, I got
the addQueryData stuff from archived turbine list responses, I think this is
the first time that the action event thread has been this thoroughly and
correctly responded to). Thank you all for your responses, they were very
helpful!
cheers,
Luke Majewski

Re: AW: $link.setAction
Posted by Luke Majewski <lu...@verizon.net>.
Thank you for all your replies, they are very helpful. I had seen the
action-event how to and had read about the action.eventsubmit.needsvalue
property but it had not made sense until last night. A fundamental
understanding of how action events and parameters are passed from form to
backend was achieved last night, which makes this much easier. As you say,
there is no difference between addQeueryData, addPathInfo, etc, since they
create the same signature and that is what the backend looks for (btw, I got
the addQueryData stuff from archived turbine list responses, I think this is
the first time that the action event thread has been this thoroughly and
correctly responded to). Thank you all for your responses, they were very
helpful!
cheers,
Luke Majewski

Read the docs. ;-)
make this value="0" , use javascript to change the value of the event
that you want to submit to "1" in your javascript submit function and
add
action.eventsubmit.needsvalue = true
to your TR.props (this is documented in the action-event howto. Right
at the bottom of the page. ;-) )
However, you're better off with the DOM solution I've posted a few
seconds ago. No need to drag lots of hidden fields around.

Re: AW: $link.setAction
Posted by Steve Yokanovich <sy...@smythco.com>.
You may need to create two forms within the page, each with it's own set
of input elements. This may not be the best solution but it has worked
for me in the past when I have a limited number of inputs.
<form name="someform" method="post"
action="$link.setAction("myclass").setPage("results.vm")">
<input type="hidden" name="eventSubmit_doAdd" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="otherData" value="1">
<a href="javascript:doSubmit()">Add</a>
</form>
AND
<form name="someform" method="post"
action="$link.setAction("myclass").setPage("results.vm")">
<input type="hidden" name="eventSubmit_doExpand" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="otherData" value="1">
<a href="javascript:doSubmit()">Expand</a>
</form>
Good luck,
Steve Yokanovich

Read the docs. ;-)
make this value="0" , use javascript to change the value of the event
that you want to submit to "1" in your javascript submit function and
add
action.eventsubmit.needsvalue = true
to your TR.props (this is documented in the action-event howto. Right
at the bottom of the page. ;-) )
However, you're better off with the DOM solution I've posted a few
seconds ago. No need to drag lots of hidden fields around.

This is perfect (although forces JS, yes...)
I like this better than creating two forms, because my links are close to
each other in a table that is being created through a loop (velocity macro),
it would be hard if not impossible to seperate out into two forms.
This is great, though, thank you very very very much!

RE: AW: $link.setAction
Posted by Mitch Christensen <mi...@informatixinc.com>.
Our solution to this dilemma was to set the eventSubmit_ input element
dynamically using JavaScript (I know...I don't like using JS either :)
). This is in our global JS include file.
The relevant JS code looks like this...
/*
* Used for adding a hidden <input/> tag to the search form.
*
* form - The form to submit.
* event - The action event name. Maps to a method of the action class.
* value - Passed to the action event handler.
*/
function invokeActionEvent(form, event, value) {
// construct the navigation input tag element
var inputTag = document.createElement("input");
inputTag.type = "hidden";
// specify the 'doXxxxxx' action event
inputTag.name = "eventSubmit_do" + event;
inputTag.value = value;
// add the tag to the search form
document.forms[form].appendChild(inputTag);
// submit the form
document.forms[form].submit();
// remove the tag from the form, because we are done with it
document.forms[form].removeChild(inputTag);
}

This works _almost_ :)
I like this suggestion it works very well, but now i have the problem
that I
have two functions being called by two different links, so I have:
<input type="hidden" name="eventSubmit_doExpand" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="eventSubmit_doAdd" value="1">
and now what happens is that depending on which link I hit, either the
Expand or the Add, the backend function called will always be the same.
So
in other words, if a vist my page, hit "add", it calls the add function
in
my backend. But then if I hit the "expand" link, it also calls the add
function in my backend. Any suggestions as to how to, for lack of a
better
word, "clear" the page so that this behavior is not observed?
thank you!

You can do it without JS by doing
<a href="$link.setActionEvent("MyAction",
"doExpand").setPage("whatever.vm")">expand</a>
<a href="$link.setActionEvent("MyAction",
"doAdd").setPage("whatever.vm")">add</a>
Then only the corresponding Action Event to the link will be called.

Re: AW: $link.setAction
Posted by Jeffery Painter <pa...@kiasoft.com>.
You could set the function you want called in your action class in a
hidden field.
<form
name="someform"
method="post"
action="$link.setAction("myclass").setPage("results.vm")">
<input type="hidden" name="eventSubmit_doAdd" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="otherData" value="1">
<a href="javascript:doSubmit()">Add</a>
</form>
It works just as well as using a form submit element.
You should only pass data and context through the doAdd function, use
data.getParameters() to pull the otherData variable... these variables
will not be passed directly to
doAdd(Rundata data, Context context)
good luck,
Jeff Painter

Right, but the problem here is how do I specify what function I want called
in "myClass" doing it this way. I don't want a button, I want a link, and
when I use a link and use the onClick (and submit the form through
javascript) it didn't work either. I'll try a couple other variations and
get back to everyone about this.
Thank you for everyone's help!

Re: AW: $link.setAction
Posted by Luke Majewski <lu...@verizon.net>.
Right, but the problem here is how do I specify what function I want called
in "myClass" doing it this way. I don't want a button, I want a link, and
when I use a link and use the onClick (and submit the form through
javascript) it didn't work either. I'll try a couple other variations and
get back to everyone about this.
Thank you for everyone's help!

Re: AW: $link.setAction

I agree with Jürgen on this one. What I do is have the button link call a
javascript which does the submit action. The link before is just going to
build a URL and not do a form post.
so in your template use
<form name="someform" method="post" action="$link.setAction("myClass")>
</form>
<script>
doSubmit()
{
document.someform.submit();
}
</script>

I agree with Jürgen on this one. What I do is have the button link call a

build a URL and not do a form post.
so in your template use
<form name="someform" method="post" action="$link.setAction("myClass")>

doSubmit()
{
document.someform.submit();

Hi,
I think the problem is that you use a link and you alter a hidden field
from a form. The link does not seem to be in <form action="{link}...">
it seems to be a regular link. When you set a regular link you should
use something like this
<a href="$link.setAction("myClass").addPathInfo("eventSubmit_doAdd",
"add").addQueryData("myfield","1")"> +Add</a>
Or something like
<a href="$link.setAction("myClass").addPathInfo("eventSubmit_doAdd",
"add").addQueryData("myfield","$velocityCount")"> +Add</a>
Hidden fields are only transmitted in the request if sent through a
form.

Hi,
I think the problem is that you use a link and you alter a hidden field
from a form. The link does not seem to be in <form action="{link}...">
it seems to be a regular link. When you set a regular link you should
use something like this
<a href="$link.setAction("myClass").addPathInfo("eventSubmit_doAdd",
"add").addQueryData("myfield","1")"> +Add</a>
Or something like
<a href="$link.setAction("myClass").addPathInfo("eventSubmit_doAdd",
"add").addQueryData("myfield","$velocityCount")"> +Add</a>
Hidden fields are only transmitted in the request if sent through a
form.
