Adrian Crum commented on OFBIZ-1041: ------------------------------------ It's a good idea to keep a sharp line drawn between the service layer and the presentation layer. This patch introduces UI elements into the service layer. Perhaps a better approach in the service layer is to simply check for "Y" - if it is anything else, default to "N". Also, a UI pattern I have been using lately is to have the current data select the correct list element, instead of displaying it twice. Example: <select name="allowSolicitation"> <#assign allowSolicitation = (mechMap.partyContactMech.allowSolicitation)?default("N")> <option value="Y"<#if allowSolitation == "Y"> selected="selected"</#if>>${uiLabelMap.CommonY}</option> <option value="N"<#if allowSolitation == "N"> selected="selected"</#if>>${uiLabelMap.CommonN}</option> </select> Not that this approach is any better, it's just different. > various values in allowSolicitation variable break some screens > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OFBIZ-1041 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-1041 > Project: OFBiz > Issue Type: Bug > Components: party > Affects Versions: SVN trunk, Release Branch 4.0 > Reporter: Krzysztof Podejma > Assignee: Si Chen > Priority: Minor > Fix For: SVN trunk, Release Branch 4.0 > > Attachments: allowSolicitation.patch > > > in contact forms field allowSolicitation is set to uiLabelMap.CommonY or > uiLabelMap.CommonN. > it would be a good idea to force this value to Y or N because it is confusing > if you use more than one language > additionaly different values break forms in other apps like crmsfa > please see my patch > Krzysztof Podejma -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
