Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
You could just run your form through this tiny plugin, prior to
submitting your ajax request

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
You cant break the string into individual arguments. It will be one
argument that contains a string with comma separated values, which can be
easily handled with CFs list functions. I'm not sure what you want to do
with them in your CFC, but you can loop through the values like so:
... here you have access to each value individually to work with

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
Hold the horses!
I changed the join from:
specialIDList.join();
to:
var specialIDList = specialIDList.join();
and it worked!
I think the var, specialIDList, was not available to the ajax function
since it was being recreated
in the .each loop.
So, now do I have to loop over the multiple variables in specialIDList on
the server side with CF
in order to break the string into individual arguments?

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
Hi, Steve...
I just gave that a try, but still get an error in Firebug:
"500 Element SPECIALIDLIST is undefined in ARGUMENTS"
Also, in the console, I still get what appears to be the same when I use
console.log(specialIDLlist):
[ "27", "28", "26" ].
Perhaps something is missing on the cfc method side? Here's that code:
???

Inside your .each loop you want to push specialID to your array like so:
specialIDList.push (specialID). Afterwards when you are preparing your
values object to be sent to the server you do specialIDList.join to put
them into a string.

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
Here's the client-side code:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#newsletter_preview_button').click(function() {
var emailNewsletterGreeting = $('#email_newsletter_greeting').val();
var specialIDList = [];
$('.special_title_checkbox:checked').each(function() {
var specialID = $(this).attr('id').split('_').pop();
specialIDList = specialID.join(', ');
});
console.log(specialIDList);
values = { emailNewsletterGreeting: emailNewsletterGreeting,
specialIDList: specialIDList }
$.ajax({ cache:false,
type: 'post',
'email-newsletter.cfc?method=mProcessEmailNewsletterForm&returnFormat=json',
data: values,
success:function(response) {
alert('Success!');
}
});
});

Ok, so you passed specialidlist, right? Can you show us your latest code?

Remember, we are sending the data over the wire as a string. So your
argument should be string.
But for now, let's see your client side code again please.

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
Hmmm...
I tried using the specialIDList.push(specialID) approach, and I get the
correct
output in console.log, [ "27", "28", "26" ], but I also get the error in
Firebug,
"500 Element SPECIALIDLIST is undefined in ARGUMENTS.
I also tried using specialIDList = specialID.join(', ') and I still get the
same
output in console.log, [ "27", "28", "26" ], but I also get the same error
in Firebug,
"500 Element SPECIALIDLIST is undefined in ARGUMENTS.
So, the cfc method doesn't understand speciaIDList when it's sent in the
form
above, even when I specify the argument as "array" type.
Suggestions on what to do now? Something else on the client side with
jQuery/JS
or something on the method side with CF?
Thanks for any feedback!

Not exactly. You can't pass complex variables like that via HTTP. It has to
be serialized first. I believe jQuery will do that for you- but I'd
probably do it myself - ie, somearray.join(",").

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
I set emailNewsletterGreeting earlier. It's a value from a single DOM
element,
so no problem with that.
And I was tinkering with code prior to the ajax code, so I was changing
variable
names halting the processing before ajax kicked in.
Your array idea sounds good.
I also tried this:
var specialIDList = [];
$('.special_title_checkbox:checked').each(function(index,value) {
var specialTitleID = $(this).attr('id').split('_').pop();
specialIDList.push(specialTitleID);
});
console.log(specialIDList);
and was able to see the list in Firebug.
It shows [ "27", "28", "26" ] in the console.
I guess I can just pass that through and have a cfargument type of "list"
and parse those ID's with a cfloop to assign them to individual cfarguments.
Or does a cfargument type of "list" handle the ID's without having to
break down the list into individual arguments?

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
I like Postman because I can manually test web services, including HTTP verbs and enter form and URL variables against services to test responses and error handling in a variety of formats. It also has tabs that parse your return data, like the network tab does, but in a better format. It's better at functional testing web services, IMHO, than posting AJAX calls repeatedly in page.

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
So values is this:
values = { emailNewsletterGreeting: emailNewsletterGreeting,
specialTitleID: specialTitleID}
I see you set specialTitleID. But you had it in loop. You probably wanted
to make that an array. If the values are IDs though you could use an array
and convert it to a list. So assuming you fixed it and specialTitleID was
an array, you could do:
specialTitleList = specialTitleID.join(",");
Not sure where you set emailNewsletterGretting.
You then want to use Chrome Dev Tools and look at the network request and
see how the value is being passed in.

Hey, Ray, and thanks for the reply...
Here's the ajax part...
$.ajax ({ cache: false,

'email-newsletter.cfc?method=mProcessEmailNewsletterForm&returnFormat=json',
data:values,
success: function(result) {
alert('Success!');

On a related note, the Postman extension for Chrome is great for testing what

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
I would set your argument type as a list and then validate,loop and process the
list in your CFC method. If so youll need to change your each() loop to
append the variables in to the list and then post the string in your $.post()
request.

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
It is **impossible** to "use document.write java script (sic) to write the
variable to a CF variable". Cannot be done. Why? Because CF variables are
only available on the server side, and are long gone figments of one's
imagination by the time the HTML/JavaScript/CSS/etc. reaches the client
side (the browser).
You can, however, use JavaScript to write a form field value or to directly
POST/GET to/from a CFC once the page has loaded in the browser.

RE: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
If the value isn't changing after the page is rendered you may be able to use
document.write java script to write the variable to a CF variable that you can
pass to the CFC. I've done that before and it works fine, so long as the
variable doesn't change after the page is rendered.

Subject: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
Hi, all...
I've approached this problem from every direction I can think of and with
reference to many, many websites, but I still can put together an answer.
I have this HTML in a form:
#special_title#
Which is output into this:
This jQuery processing the inputs:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#newsletter_preview_button').click(function() {
var specialTitleID = $('.special_title_checkbox:checked');
$('.special_title_checkbox:checked').each(function(index,value) {
var specialTitleID = $(this).attr('id').split('_').pop();
var specialTitleID = 'specialTitle_'+specialTitleID;
alert(specialTitleID); <--- [ this alerts the three input values, 26, 27, 28,
individually when form is submitted ]
});
values = { emailNewsletterGreeting: emailNewsletterGreeting,
specialTitleID: specialTitleID}
(Followed by AJAX code...)
And this cfc method:
But, the cffunction above doesn't know what to do with the value,
"specialTitleID", when it's received.
Or, rather, I don't know how to change it in the jQuery code or the cffunction
code so that each specialTitleID can be separted into individual cfarguments.
I've tried specifying cfargument name="specialTitleID" as type="array",
type="list", type="string", but I get a JS error in Firebug no matter what I
try. I'm sure it's simple, I just haven't handled a multi-valued variable going
via AJAX to a cfc method before. (or that I remember...).
Suggestions, anyone?
Thanks,
Rick

Re: How do I pass this jQuery variable as arguments to a cfc method?
Why didn't yo post the AJAX code? Isn't that crucial for getting the values
to your CFC? We need to see that.
