hidden input so when save the post on submit it is available from control

AjaxHelper

[elias]

I tried searching for tutorials on the web, but I couldn't find any.
Maybe I am using the wrong keywords, but I hope someone here, could help me 
out.

I have a blog - like model, and a tag model, that is associated with it 
(hasMany).
So I can assign tags to new posts. But adding a new tag, makes me have to 
close the post, create the tag and then restart with the post.

So I would like to be able to add tags with the AjaxHelper, when in the new 
blog post.

Anyone who knows a good tutorial for this?

Thx

Re: Rendering difference between JSHelper and AjaxHelper (CSS related)

I figured it out, sorry for the trouble. It was a simple naming issue.

Rendering difference between JSHelper and AjaxHelper (CSS related)

[ojonam]

Hi,

I am migrating from AjaxHelper to JsHelper (as the former is
deprecated), and am converting $ajax->autoComplete calls in the
following way (I stay with Prototype JS): for a given

$ajax->autoComplete('div', 'url', array());

I now get the following (much more blown-up in size):

Form->text('field', array('id' => 'field_id')));?>


and the following javascript:

echo $this->Html->scriptBlock(
$this->Js->domReady(
"new Ajax.Autocompleter(
'field_id',
'div_choices',
'url'

)"
)
);

For those who know, you can customize the css so that the resulting
"autocomplete" div will be nicely rendered.

With AjaxHelper, this worked perfectly fine, but I do not get the
rendering to take place when I use JSHelper. Playing with firebug, I
notice that if I change the div class name from "autocomplete" to
something else and back, I get the correct rendering.

My question therefore is: does JsHelper do some kind of pre-loading of
the js files which makes css rendering incompatible? If so, how do I
react to that?

Thanks,
ojonam

AjaxHelper::editor + ckeditor

[mrnnn]

Hi all.

Well, I think the title says it all. If I could just call a javascript
method after the div has been converted to a textarea, that would be
enough! but i can't find any option that does this.

could anybody give me some pointers on how to allow in-place editing
with ckeditor or any wysiwyg editor.


Thank you so much.

AjaxHelper and loadCollectionUrl

[jsalonen]

Hi,
Scriptaculous's in-place collection editor has the option
loadCollectionUrl which makes the editor load its collection from an
URL.

Unfortunately AjaxHelper doesn't let me use it; it's not included in
AjaxHelper::editorOptions. What's the correct procedure for having it
added, do I need to file a change request in Trac?

radio button + ajaxHelper::observeField() - clicking second time no action WHY??

[leafchild]

I'm using radio button +  ajaxHelper::observeField() to change
display .

There are about 5 radio buttons. When I click one of them first time,
working fine then I click the other one, still working fine but when I
click again first one I clicked, I don't see any update. If I click
other radio button, they still work fine. The radio button works only
first time it clicked then stop working after that.

code are similar to this below:


 test

 '/test/ajax_test',
  'update'=>'ajax_test');
 echo $ajax->observeField('test' . $i, $options );
 ?>






I have similar code for drop down list and working fine but in this
specific page I prefer using radio button and not working as I
expected.
How can I make it work even I clicked them 2nd and 3rd time?

ajaxHelper - passing value of form field to action

[JamesF]

hello there
quick question with ajaxHelper

i have a few select boxes on the page and i need one to update based
upon the value of the other. i dont have a problem getting it to call
an action via observeField BUT i can't seem to pass that action the
value of the form field.

here is my code:

echo $form->create('Testing');

//select 1
echo $form->select('zone_id', $zones , NULL, array('id'=>'zone_id'),
true );

//select 2
echo $form->select('country_id', array('Please Select a Country' ) ,
0, array('id'=>'country_id'), false );

echo $form->end('Next Step');

echo $ajax->observeField( 'zone_id',  array('url' => array
( 'controller'=>'testings', 'action' => 'get_country',
WHATGOESHERETOPASSPARAMETER???), 'update'=>'country_id' , 'frequency'
=> 0.2,) );

Help-> AJAXHELPER -> Updating a field froma text input field

[Dr.Dran]

HI at all,
last week I have post a discussion to update a field with the ajax
method, and I have found a good choice utilizing this article:

http://v2.cybergod.net/article/show/u/ajax_input_update

But Now I have another questions:

In the article the field were changed with a Type:Select Form, now I
have to solve another problem:

I have this form:


input('xxx',array('type'=>'text','id'=>'xxx'));
echo $form->input('',array
('type'=>'text','id'=>'','disabled'=>'true'));
?>


I want to observe the xxx field and when I insert some text I will
fill the field 
with (for example) that text

xxx = cicc

after digit

 = cicc

Is possible tu utilize the observeField for this? There is some
examples?

Best Regards

Franco

No. There's no way of doing this. AjaxHelper only spits code based on
Prototype and Scriptaculous, it does nothing more than this. If you
want something to spit code based on JQuery, you need either code your
own helper or search google for existing ones - there are some.
In my opinion:
- Javascript should be coded as such, so, why not to write the code on
a proper file and load it?
- If you still want it to be done on PHP - with a helper - do not go
for one. Write your own.

JQuery and AjaxHelper

[Arak Tai'Roth]

So, from what I have learned in order to use the Ajax Helper in
CakePHP I have to include the Prorotype and Scriptaculous libraries.
However I have a lot of things I would like to be able to do, all that
use JQuery, and I don't really want to have to include all 3 libraries
if I don't have to.

I was wondering if there is anyway in order to still use the Ajax
helper (I don't really want to write all the code to implement it
everytime) while using JQuery instead of Prototype and Scriptaculous?

Re: ajaxhelper::form() submit to different controller?

[francky06l]

Maybe you could use the router:: url with the true parameter,
ie:
new Ajax.Updater('usersprojects', router::url('/users/projects/add'
true), 

Did not try, but seems it could be clean ..

ajaxhelper::form() submit to different controller?

[Bart van Wissen]

I use CakePHP 1.2 and I want to create an ajax-based form that submits
to a different controller.
Say I have a Users controller and a Projects controller.
Inside one of the views of my Users controller, I want to create a
form that submits to one of the actions of the Projects controller, so
I tried this (inside the Users controller):

form('/projects/add','POST',array('update' =>
'usersprojects',
'complete' => "Element.hide('newproject');"));?>


This results in the following output:

(..) new Ajax.Updater('usersprojects','/kb1/users/projects/add', ..
etc

(kb1 is the root of my application)

So it seems that it always assumes that the first parameter is an
action inside the current controller. I could of course use "../
projects/add" or something, but that looks rather ugly to me (and I'm
not sure that it's even valid dhtml).

Am I overlooking something?

Re: AjaxHelper - Adding an observeField to a dynamic div?

[schneimi]

I am glad I could help a little bit and you found the bug! Maybe you
write a ticket about that, cakePHP should really check for the
semicolon, so that no one ever runs into this problem.

Cakebin should be permanent, but honestly I didn't use it myself yet,
I just noticed other people pointing to it when it came to larger
code.

I didn't write a tutorial yet, but I would also use the Bakery. :-)

Happy baking,

Michael

Re: AjaxHelper - Adding an observeField to a dynamic div?

[Mike]

Huh.  Ok, it now works.  AND, I know what I was doing wrong, so I'm
going to declare that the pain & suffering were worth it :)

I tried to put together a quick summary/example so show how it didn't
work, but now it does work.  I've pasted the example into the
bin.cakephp thing, in case you (or anyone else) wants to look at it.
Schneimi - how permanent is bin.cakephp?  Can I leave it there as an
example, or will it be deleted after a while?

Anyways, the bin.cakephp addr is http://bin.cakephp.org/view/1771253248

What I was doing wrong:

The observeField documentation clearly states that one option you can
pass to it is the 'with' option; it somewhat ambiguously states that
this is "A Javascript expression specifying the parameters for the
XMLHttpRequest. This defaults to Form.Element.serialize('$field')...",
but between that & some other reading, plus looking at the generated
source, it becomes clear that this is a snippet of Prototype code.

So if I want to send _everything_ from the form when one element
changes, I do something like this:


echo $ajax->observeField('SELECTCOURSE', array(
'frequency'=>'2',
'url'=>'/things/update',
'update'=>array('dynamic1', 'dynamic2' ),

'with' => 'Form.serialize(\'ajaxFormID\')'

 )  );

My mistake was to add a semi-colon at the end of the Prototype
snippet, like so:


'with' => 'Form.serialize(\'ajaxFormID\');' //   NOTE the ;   !

WITH that semi-colon, it doesn't send the response back to the
server.  And since this was all in a dynamic DIV, when I sent this
code to, say, FireFox, I wasn't able to see the code in FireBug, nor
did it print any error messages to the console (IE, likewise, didn't
signal any errors).



Having said all that - I think I'd be willing to write up a short
tutorial on this (since there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of stuff
on CakePHP & AJAX that I found).  Do know where I might post such a
thing? I don't have a blog, but maybe I can submit a tutorial to the
bakery?

Also - thanks for the help with this!  I had found a 'workaround', but
not the bug, and probably would have dropped it if I hadn't seen your
reply :)

Thanks!

Re: AjaxHelper - Adding an observeField to a dynamic div?

[schneimi]

Hi,

if it is some more code, it's just not readable very well without
proper formatting and highlighting, more people will enjoy your code
if you use cakebin. :-)

Did you also try to put the code for the second observer in the
complete-function of the first ajax observer? What you can also do
about ajax populated js-code to be executed, is to put in a javascript-
header in the answer, like:

Re: AjaxHelper - Adding an observeField to a dynamic div?

[Mike]

Hello!

Thanks for the reply!

Late(r) last night, I browsed through the prototypejs.org site, and
found:

http://prototypejs.org/learn/introduction-to-ajax
"If your HTML comes with inline scripts, they will be stripped by
default. You'll have to pass true as the evalScripts option in order
to see your scripts being executed."

So I figured that I'd get up early today, and make sure that
evalScripts is there, and hopefully fix everything.  However, when I
checked the output of observeField, I'm seeing a script element that
contains:



So it looks like evalScripts is true for the observer that's watching
the first select box.  For the heck of it, I tried hacking cake/.../
ajax.php to throw in evalJS:true,evalJSON:true, but those didn't
really help, either.


What is bin.cakephp.org?  Is that better than including the source in
the above posting?


Thanks!
--Mike

Re: AjaxHelper - Adding an observeField to a dynamic div?

[schneimi]

Hi,

I am not sure, but it could be a problem like
http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/d7c97c5f6f2ffc8e/db10a26a5d2c113c?show_docid=db10a26a5d2c113c

Better use http://bin.cakephp.org/ to post your code.

Hope this helps,

Michael

AjaxHelper - Adding an observeField to a dynamic div?

[Mike]

Hello!

I've looked at the docs, at the API, and a little bit at the source,
as well as Googling around for this, but I can't seem to find any
answers, and I'm kinda stuck :)

I'm trying to use the Cake 1.2.0.6311 (beta) distribution, and I've
tried it using both FireFox 3 and IE 7.0.5730.13

I'm trying to use Cake's built-in AjaxHelper, to create form with a
'cascading select' - the user is presented with a drop-down list (a
select), and once they've made a section, then the observeField that
was watching that select uses
the built-in AJAX support to update an $ajax->div, in order to add the
second drop-down (as well as a second observeField, for that drop-
down)

The problem I'm running into is that when I try to update the div, it
doesn't actually print the script (as far as I can tell).  When I use
FireBug, I can verify that the non-javascript output is present on
either side of the script in the div, but the actual output of $ajax-
>observeField is not there. (This is annotated in the code below with
"NOTE NOTE NOTE")

The odd thing is that when I write the first select into the form, and
the first observeField (i.e., when the page is first generated), that
all works fine - it's only when I try to put the observeField output
into the div that I'm updating that problems arise.


If anyone has any experience with this, and wouldn't mind helping me
out, I'd greatly appreciate it!  :)







I'll include the code here, in case it's helpful:

Re: CakePHP / AjaxHelper

[francky06l]

With ajax you can update multiple div, or in your case it seems that a
single div should be enough to get the player name and update
properties of some DOM elements.
For the timer, a periodical updater javascript should handle it..

CakePHP / AjaxHelper

[CakeME]

Hello friends,
 I  am building an app .. where there is two different list of
football players... and there will be a timer on the top
when i click the timer the game will start.. then i can click on the
player .. it must update the playername and the time on the timer in
the database and also change background of the particular link...all
these things must happen without any page refresh

So all this i am building with CakePHP/AjaxHelper but  i am facing
lots of problem ... like chnageing the link background when i click on
the player and how to update the  timer time etc..

Can any one got any idea on this app .. please share with me

Re: ajaxHelper::observeField - observes text field onBlur, not onChange

[senser]

Hello Lamiunto!

I've tried several values for frequency but no success :(. I always
use option "frequency", because I've read that it's obligatory for IE
to work with ajax::observeField.

Re: ajaxHelper::observeField - observes text field onBlur, not onChange

[Lamiunto]

Well, according to the Cake 1.1 API, the observeField function has got
an array for options, one of those options is "frequency", now that is
"The frequency (in seconds) at which changes to this field will be
detected."

I haven't tested this yet, but have you tried setting frequency to say
something like 1 second and see what happens?

Re: ajaxHelper::observeField - observes text field onBlur, not onChange

[senser]

Actually the question stands: "how to trigger observeField on upkey
even"? I found an external JS library www.extjs.com which handles this
event nut I'm not sure that's the right way for handle this

Re: ajaxHelper::observeField - observes text field onBlur, not onChange

[maschoen]

My recent experience is that you want to trigger on the upkey event.
Ignore the event structure itself.   Go to the field and read its
value.
If you look on the downkey, the value hasn't been updated yet.

I can't understand why every time I start a new discussion here
(writing the first post) the post is submiited twice. That happens
every time and I press "Submit" button just once ..

ajaxHelper::observeField - observes text field onBlur, not onChange

[senser]

Hi,
I have a form where users must select from over 11000 records in
list_box. I'm using ajax to observe text field and update select to
reduce high load when loading page (If I populate list box with 11K
records page renders very slow).
So the problem is that $ajax->observeField() triggers not on typing in
text field, but when the field lost focus. In other words - it works
on javascript "onBlur" event, not on "onChange".
Is there a way to populate my list_box when user is typing in text_box
and is not necessary to press TAB, or to click somewhere with mouse .
Here is snippet from my view (I don't think there is a problem in
controller or model code, because if the text_field lost focus all is
fine and working)

print $form->input('Employer.string', array('type'=>'text',
'maxlength'=>'5', 'size'=>'10', 'id'=>'employer_string',
'label'=>'Employer'));

print '';

print $form->input('CustomerTaxDetail.employer_id',
array('type'=>'select', 'label'=>'', 'options'=>$employersArray,
'showEmpty'=>false, 'size'=>4,
'id'=>'employers',  
'error'=>array('required'=>'Employer is
obligatory', 'maxlength'=>'Employer code max length is 8 symbols',
'number'=>'Employer code must be a number')));

print $ajax->observeField('employer_string', array('url'=>'/employers/
autocomplete', 'update'=>'employers', 'indicator'=>'ajax_indicator',
'onChange'=>true));


P.S. Even when I write something like this:
print $form->input('Employer.string', array('type'=>'text',
'maxlength'=>'5', 'size'=>'10', 'id'=>'employer_string',
'label'=>'Employer', 'onChange'=>'window.alert(\'CHANGE\')'));
nothing happens when typing in text box

I think you just need to set [code]$this->layout = 'ajax';[/code] in your
controller's action. This works fine always

ajaxHelper - observerField problem in layout when updating field

[senser]

Hi,

I work on application based on CakePHP and use ajaxHelper in one of my
forms for updating field (i've tried text_field, taxtarea_field,
block  etc but same result) according to select_box change. I want
to show an address of a selected employer - employers list is in a
populated select box and when user select an employer I want the
address to be shown below select_box.
Here is snippets from the code:

/***Layout of the form*/

print $form->input('CustomerTaxDetail.employers_id',
array('type'=>'select', 'label'=>'Employer', 'options'=>
$employersArray, 'showEmpty'=>false, 'size'=>4,
id'=>'employers','error'=>array('required'=>'Employer is obligatory',
'maxlength'=>'Employer code max length is 8 symbols',
'number'=>'Employer code must be a number')));

print ' ';

print $ajax->observeField('employers', array('url'=>'/employers/
update_address', 'update'=>'employer_address',
'loading'=>'document.getElementById(\'employer_address
\').style.display=\'block\'',
'loaded'=>'document.getElementById(\'employer_address\').style.display=
\'block\''));

/End of layout*/

/update_address function in EmployerController where I get the
employer address**/

function update_address() {
$this->Employer->recursive=0;
if(!empty($this->data['CustomerTaxDetail']['employers_id'])) {
$employer_id = (int)$this->data['CustomerTaxDetail']
['employers_id'];

$this->set('address',$this->Employer->read('Employer.address',
$employer_id));
}
}

/End of function*/

/**The View for update_address function*/

Re: Trouble with AjaxHelper $options['loaded']

[josh southern]

link('New Supplier', '/suppliers/add',
array('update'=> array('options', 'details'),
'loaded'=>'adjustLayout();')); ?>

This is supposed to call a script that re-sizes the layout based on the
longest column. It runs, but too early: the new DIV lengths aren't in
the browser yet. The second time you click the link, it works on the
length of the then-current DIVs. Here's the script (I'm using the
x-core library):

function adjustLayout()
{
// Find the window height
var size = getViewportSize();
var screenHeight = size[1];

//Adjust for screen height
xTop("footer", screenHeight-13); //Adjust for height of footer
maxHeight = screenHeight-180; //Adjust for height of masthead


// Assign max height to all columns
xHeight("details", maxHeight);
xHeight("options", maxHeight);

xShow("footer");
}

Trouble with AjaxHelper $options['loaded']

[josh southern]

I'm having trouble with the 'loaded' callback function and AJAX links.
It seems that the callback is executed a little too early.

I have a JavaScript function that basically resizes the height of the
columns in my layout when the page is loaded, based on the longest
column, and then displays the footer at the very bottom. I would like
to call this function when the AJAX DIVs are updated, as they change
height based on the content that is asynchronously updated.

The function works the second time I click the AJAX link, but not the
first. It's like the callback is executed before the new properties for
the DIVs are loaded into the browser.

I had the same problem last week trying to move an element around the
page based on results from changing a DIV with AJAX.

Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated.
