RE: SOT: ajaxCFC/JavaScript/dynamic forms
Hey Rick, I use jQuery for a tabbed interface and serializing formsthat's it! I'm realizing there is more I should know about jQuery and it's usage with ajaxCFClooking for decent tutorials or docs ;-) When I say serialize I mean: str = $(#+form).serialize(); (form being the argument passed to the JS function in question) I simply call a method in a a CFC which creates the HTML string required via CFSAVECONTENT like so (psuedo of course): cfsavecontent form name=myPopUpForm id=myPopUpForm [form stuff here] [button with onClick=funcToSendFormVIaAJAX('formName');] /form /cfsavecontent So that HTML string is returned to the client and stuffed in a DIV that then shows above the base page. When the button on that form (myPopUpForm) is pressed, the serialization step seems to fail as it doesn't seem to see the form. I'd love any info you have on what you asked about!!

RE: SOT: ajaxCFC/JavaScript/dynamic forms
Hi, Bryan... So, I take it from your answer that you're not using .live or .livequery. .livequery (a pre-jQuery 1.3 plug-in) and .live (core as of 1.3) are functions that address the issue you're having, it sounds like. If you have a page rendered in a browser, then load new elements into the DOM, such as links, buttons, etc., they won't work. .livequery and .live use event delegation to bind current and future elements in the DOM to an event. For example, this code would not work for '#myLink' if it was added to a DOM via the jQuery .load function: $(document).ready(function() { $('#myLink').click(function() { alert('myLink was clicked'); }); }); However, the same code, using the .live function (jQuery 1.3 and later) with allow the .click function to apply to '#myLink' no matter when the elements is added to the DOM: $(document).ready(function() { $('#myLink').live('click', function() { alert('myLink was clicked'); }); }); You can read more about the .live functionality here: http://docs.jquery.com/Events/live hth, Rick However, -Original Message- From: Bryan Stevenson [mailto:br...@electricedgesystems.com] Sent: Friday, October 23, 2009 11:36 AM To: cf-talk Subject: RE: SOT: ajaxCFC/JavaScript/dynamic forms Hey Rick, I use jQuery for a tabbed interface and serializing formsthat's it!

RE: SOT: ajaxCFC/JavaScript/dynamic forms
Thanks Rick, I think I have some reading to do ;-) My implementation of ajaxCFC is quite different than it comes out of the box (i.e. added a masterhandler CFC in the root to pass all AJAX calls through to non-web accessible CFCs that are public and not remote.there is also a custom ajaxCall() function that will serialize the form if specified or package up other data into key/value pairs to be sent as args to the CFC being called). I suspect all my customizations are making this harder to match up with the pure jQuery examples everyone is showing me. I'll hack away for a bit and see if I can get anything to work. I did use Tony'd load() example, but it ends up showing the HTML string and NOT the form in the DIV I load it inno idea why?? ;-) Thanks again fro the pointers! Cheers - Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.

SOT: ajaxCFC/JavaScript/dynamic forms
Hi All, I'm not the best when it comes to JavaScript and I've got a question about forms that are created in a CFC method and then passed back to the client to be displayed in a DIV (meant to look like a pop-up). SCENARIO: - 1) JS function is included when page is rendered and references a form that does not yet exist. 2) User clicks a button which fires an AJAX call to create an HTML string and passes it back to the client to be displayed in a hidden DIV (which is then made visible). The HTML string includes the form tags to define the form that the JS function mentioned above references along with some form prompts. 3) User enters some stuff in the form prompts and then clicks a button to submit. That submit calls the function mentioned in number 1 above. In that call I use jQuery to serialize the form. - Now if I use jQuery (which I'm quite new to as well) to serialize a form that exists at the time the page renders, everything works correctly. If I do it as outlined in the scenario above, my AJAX calls fail. From what I can tell it is because the dynamically created and added form does NOT seem to be seen and thus the serialization of it fails (essentially I think it doesn't see the form and produces a blank string). I'm pretty sure I have figured out what's happening, but I have no idea how to solve it. Any ideas? Thanks a bunch in advance!! Cheers - Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.

Re: SOT: ajaxCFC/JavaScript/dynamic forms
Generally when I want to return HTML, I use the JQuery load() function. When I want to return a data set in JSON: array or query object, return a boolean value or a single vfalue I use ColdFusion's native CFAJAXPROXY. I suggest returning the form using load(), which then will fix your issue. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: SOT: ajaxCFC/JavaScript/dynamic forms
Thanks for the quick reply Tony! I should note that I am NOT currently using jQuery with my AJAX calls except for serializing the form. I'm also doing this with openBD where CFAJAXPROXY was a bit off lat time I tested it (but as you said...that's for the simple stuff). Do you have a code snippet on the usage of the load() function? or somewhere to point me so I can RTFM ;-) TIA Cheers - Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.

Re: SOT: ajaxCFC/JavaScript/dynamic forms
There are plenty of examples online. Check the jQuery docs. I can only advise that when using load, you will need to pass all of your parameters using a URL string, which will limit what you can pass to the posting page. I also suggest passing a timestamp so the browser never caches the results. You can even use a CFC as your page to load. You would do something like this: $(#mydiv).load(/cfc/mycfc.cfc?method=getformid=+firstval+user=+secondval+ts=+gettime(),function(){//run stuff when the div is finished loading}); ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: SOT: ajaxCFC/JavaScript/dynamic forms
Thanks again Tony! So to make sure I'm barking up the right tree load() is intended to (sorry for lack of a the proper technical term) make a form visible to JS if the form was added to the page after it initially loads (i.e. retrieved the HTML string containing the form from an ajax call to a method in a CFC)?

RE: Coldfusion - Dynamic Forms
If JavaScript is an option (it would depend completely on it though), you could look into the createElement() method it would allow you to add as many fields as you want on the fly, client side. You'd just use a hidden field or something to hold the count for you so you know how many fields to look for during processing. I've also done this the quick way, which was create the maximum number of fields I wanted to allow, then hide them with JS/CSS. When the user clicked [Add New Field] it just unhid the next field. With JS off, all the fields were displayed since hiding them depended on JS. ..:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

RE: Building Dynamic Forms with WDDX -- Examples Needed
Howard, Check out qForms: http://www.pengoworks.com/qforms/docs/examples/setfields.htm I also did a WDDX Form example I used to have online a while ok, but I've taken it offline as it was extremely outdated. Using the method in the qForms example above, you'd just need to do something like this. 1) When data is submitted to the server, save the FORM scope/structure as a WDDX packet (in this example, I'll call it wddxPacket.) 2) On the edit page, invoke the following command somewhere within your head/head tags: script cfwddx action=WDDX2JS input=#wddxPacket# toplevelvariable=oSavedData /script 3) Now in the example, change the code objForm.setFields(stcForm); to: objForm.setFields(oSavedData); Obviously, you'll want to change the example around to match your exact needs (i.e., you'll probably want to invoke the setFields() method during the onLoad event of the document.) -Dan -Original Message- From: Owens, Howard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 06, 2003 9:17 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: Building Dynamic Forms with WDDX -- Examples Needed I want to build a form where I load the query data into a WDDX2JS packet, then have a select box of company name and when a new company is selected the rest of the edit form is populated with the matching data, which it can then be edited, and then submitted for updating the database.

ordering of structure based dynamic forms

Anyone know how I can order the loop thru the structure (using the collection and item properties of cfloop) and display the output in a predefined order other than the default of alphabetical order of keys. I'm thinking a method may be to create an array of each key, one array variable for the 'key value' and another one for the display order. Then I will have the problem of sorting all this!

Dynamic Forms
I am creating a dynamic form. For example: FORM INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="text1" INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="checkbox1" INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="text2" INPUT TYPE="checkbox" NAME="checkbox2" /FORM I then get the value with this: CFSET VARIABLES.var_name = "FORM.text" VARIABLES.counter CFSET VARIABLES.default_value = Evaluate(VARIABLES.var_name) CFSET VARIABLES.text = SetVariable(VARIABLES.var_name,VARIABLES.default_value) This works fine for the text fields but not for the checkbox fields. Has anyone done something like this before? -Jason -- Archives: http://www.eGroups.com/list/cf-talk To Unsubscribe visit http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=listsbody=lists/cf_talk or send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe' in the body.
RE: Dynamic Forms in CF [How To?]
Simpleadd a form variable called 'numberofentries'. If defined loop and create a X entries each suffixed by a number 1..X set an invisible variable to the number requested. Action for the form should be to some sort of insertentries.cfm If not defined display a form which asks how many entries would you like to make with the action to re-submit to the same form. On submissio, the insertentries.cfm should loop X times and attempt an insert. Make a check to make sure data exists for each entry.

I have a project set up for here that i need to recreate in CF. Half way through it, there is a section for team members on the project 01-12. 01 Team Members Full Name [Drop Down] Needs Training [checkbox] Laptop [checkbox] Foreign Language Operating System [checkbox] well, sometimes the manager filling in the form will only add a few team members, sometimes they may have more then 12 people on a team. So how can i build a form that first has a drop down or text are that asks How many team members do you have? Then Dynamically creates the fields needed? Would i need to break the form into several pages? After storing the info i also need to email the content to several people. I have all the standard books. if you know chapter page # that may have the answer i need that would be cool too! Also If any one has any experience grabbing content/data from Semaphore, Please contact me.
