Re: Getting form component raw value on ajax action
Have a look at autocomplete texxtfield, it should provide a good starting point. ** Martin 2009/6/19 Andrea Aime : > Hi, > I have a form in which one of the fields represents a server > side path.

Andrea Aime ha scritto: Hi, I have a form in which one of the fields represents a server side path. The field has a validator to make sure the path is valid and contains certain kind of files inside of it. I also have a link on the side of it that opens in a modal window a server side file system browser to be used as a directory chooser. The issue is, I would like to know what the user typed in the field, use it in the chooser, and when I'm done with the chooser, update the value in the field accordingly. I've tried out three solutions, none of them seems to work: - plain ajaxsubmitlink: validation triggers and onSubmit does not get called all the time. Not good - ajajxsubmitlink + disable default form processing + grab the field input value -> the chooser starts with whatever the user typed in, but when the chooser closes it would seem the field is not updated even if it's part of the ajax request target and its model has been updated Answering myself, the second option works provided that the code calls field.clearInput() (besides setting the new model value).

Getting form component raw value on ajax action
Hi, I have a form in which one of the fields represents a server side path. The field has a validator to make sure the path is valid and contains certain kind of files inside of it. I also have a link on the side of it that opens in a modal window a server side file system browser to be used as a directory chooser. The issue is, I would like to know what the user typed in the field, use it in the chooser, and when I'm done with the chooser, update the value in the field accordingly. I've tried out three solutions, none of them seems to work: - plain ajaxsubmitlink: validation triggers and onSubmit does not get called all the time. Not good - ajajxsubmitlink + disable default form processing + grab the field input value -> the chooser starts with whatever the user typed in, but when the chooser closes it would seem the field is not updated even if it's part of the ajax request target and its model has been updated - ajaxlink: the opposite, that is the form field value cannot be read (it's not posted back to the server) but when the chooser closes the field value is updated with whatever the user chose (the code that does the field update is exactly the same) Sigh... any way to have this thing work both ways? I can provide sample code, but first I'd like to check if there is any general reason why this would not work.
