Overwriting the value of an html:hidden tag using javascript

Hi!
Can somebody help me with my problem?
I need to overwrite the value of my html:hidden tag using javascript, but I dont know how?
Any help?
Thanks

what are you talking about :x
thats a webapplication question, wrong forum..
But you are using STRUTS I would say...
<html:hidden property="hiddenfield"/>This is the proper way of doing it.. but overrighting it
I don't think you understand why we use that?
It is only for forms.... we use that for hidden input ... It is common sence not to overrde that value.

Getting the value of a html:text property in javascript function

Hi all,
I am using struts framework and I need to get a value in a textfield both in java part and javascript part
<td><html:text property="identityNumber"> </td>
I dont know how can I reach the value user entered in that field in the javascript function
function verifyID(){
var identityUserEntered = ????
alert(identity);
}

the javascript expression document.forms[0].identityNumber.value should do it.
You do realise you can't run java and javascript at the same time though right? The only way javascript can communicate with java is to submit an http request (normally submit form)

How do I set (or auto populate) the value of a modal dialog field using javascript?

I have a Modal Dialog on my SharePoint 2010 page the following fields: Your Name, Subject, Priority, Message.
It links to a list I have on the site. The second field, Subject, I want to auto populate it when the window opens, so the user can leave it as is or modify the subject. I want to set the field value using javascript.
I've tried setting the field with this code:
document.getElementById('Subject').value = "Test";
and also, this:
setFieldValue('Subject','My custom value');
Neither work.
How do I set the value of the subject field when the user first opens the dialog using javascript?
Please help.

I am sure, you are looking at default field value of a list column(single line) in a modal window, if so please try below code
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.0.min.js" type="text/javascript" abp="397"></script><script type="text/javascript" abp="398">
$(document).ready(function(){
$('input[name*="Subject"]').val("Test");
</script>

HTML DB Items Using JavaScript

I have a page that is based on a SQL Query (PL/SQL Function Body Returning SQL Query). If I call another page from one of the items using a URL such as
f?p=&APP_ID.:6:#APP_SESSION#::::P6_ID:#ID#
it calls the new page fine.
If I try and call it using the example in :
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/htmldb/howtos/how_to_create_custom_popups.html
So change it to have an HTML expression of :
<a href="javascript:callMyPopup('ID');">Notes</a>
the ID never seems to be seen.
If i do an function callMyPopup (formItem1) {
var formVal1 = document.getElementById(formItem1).value;
alert('value is ' || formVal1);
the values is also not displayed.
This is the first time I have tried to use Javascript, is my problem because the ID is part of the Query rather than a static field ?
Thanks
Paul

Hello Paul,
Your JavaScript function will not work properly because you try to pass a form item value to that function. But you are calling the function from a query.
Try the following:
First, change the URL from:
f?p=&APP_ID.:6:#APP_SESSION#::::P6_ID:#ID#
to:
javascript:callMyPopup('#ID#');
Second, change the link text from:
<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#...>
to:
Note
Third, change your JavaScript function:
function callMyPopup (qvalue) {
alert('value is ' + qvalue);

Is there a way that you can have two different text fields (email, phone) that one at least one of them must be completed before submitting the form? Can it be done using javascript in the validation tab? if so, how?

Is there a way that you can have two different text fields (email, phone) that one at least one of them must be completed before submitting the form? Can it be done using javascript in the validation tab? if so, how?

Here is one solution:
// mouse up action for submit button;
function GetField(cName) {
// get field object for cName field with error checking;
var oField = this.getField(cName);
if(oField == null) app.alert("Error accessing field named " + cName + "\nPleae verigy field name, spelling and capitalizeation.", 1, 0);
return oField;
} // end GetField function;
var oPhone = GetField("phone");
oPhone.required = oPhone.value == oPhone.defaultValue;
var oEmail = GetField("email");
oEmail.required = oEmail.value == oEmail.defaultValue;
if(oPhone.required && oEmail.required) {
app.alert("Missing required fields.", 1, 0);
} else {
app.alert("Submitting form", 3, 0);
// additional code for submission;

Is it possible to add button in the main tool panel of AI cs6 using javascript?

Hello freinds,
Is it possible to add button in the main tool panel of AI cs6 using javascript?
or is there any other way of adding the ui component to the tool panel..
is it feasible??

you can't add buttons to the tool panel using javascript, your only option is to create a plugin, you'll need C++ for that.
yes, you'll need the SDK...if you need help with that, there's a dedicated forum for it

How to capture the value of certain HTML tags

Hi All,
I would like to retrieve the values of the following HTML outputs and is wondering whether there is a simpler method to do:
<td class="propType"><b>Address</b></td>
                        <td class="propType"><b>Agent Office</b></td>
                        <td class="propType"><b>Result</b></td>
                        <td class="propType" align="right"><b>Amount</b></td>
                                <td colspan="6"><strong class="propType">
                                <td><strong>Date</strong></td>
                                <td><strong>Amount</strong></td>
                                <td><strong>Agent Office</strong></td>
                                <td><strong>Selling Agent</strong></td>
                                <td class="even">Aug-07</td>
                                <td class="even">$2,925,000 </td>
                                <td class="even">Di Jones RE</td>
                                <td class="even">Andrew Hennessy</td>One awkard method is by using the stringbuffer as follows:
String greaterthanSignedList[] = greaterthanSigned.split(">") to pickup all the text that comes after the greater than (ie ">" sign)...
String lessthanSignedList[] = lessthanSigned.split("</") to get the string before the less than (ie "</" sign) ...
Here are the output that I am looking for:
Address
Agent Office
Result
Amount
Date
Amount
Agent Office
Selling Agent
Aug-07
$2,925,000
Di Jones RE
However, I am sure that there must be an easier way to do this. Would anyone be able to point me to the right direction?
Many thanks,

Only 1 option is needed. ie either XSLT, SAX, DOM... whichever is the simplest.The name Simple API for XML kind of says it all, but you might need to write a lot of unnecessary code. I like to write an XSL stylesheet that converts the input data into something that I can easily parse.
The Java code looks like this:
PipedReader result = new PipedReader();
Writer resultWriter = new PipedWriter(result);
TransformerFactory transFact = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer trans = transFact.newTransformer(new StreamSource(stylesheet));
trans.transform(new StreamSource(xmlInput), new StreamResult(resultWriter));
resultWriter.close();Writing the XSL stylesheet should be trivial in your case, but you can do a lot with it.
I suggest you toy around a bit with both XSLT and SAX. Traversing the DOM manually is not really advisable.

Assigning a String Value to the value attribute of html:file

Hi,
we facing a problem while assigning a value to the VALUE attribute of file tag
<html:file property="fileupload" size='25' value="sample.xls" onchange="callsheet()" />
can anyone help me out plzzz,

Two points -
1) Java is not Javascript or HTML; you would do better to find a more appropriate forum.
2) When you take this to a better forum, you need to describe the problem.

How can an applet retrieve the values of a HTML form shown in a JEditorPane

Hi,
I'm doing an applet that contains a JTree and a JEditorPane
among other components. Each node of the JTree represents some
information that is stored in a database, and whenever a JTree
node is selected, this information is recovered and shown in
the JEditorPane with a html form. To make the html form,
the applet calls a servlet, which retrieves the information of
the node selected from the database. This information is stored
like a XML string, and using XSLT, the servlet sends the html
form to the applet, which shows it in the JEditorPane.
My problem is that I don't know how I can recover new values
that a user of the application can introduce in the input fields
of the html form. I need to recover this new values and send them
to another servlet which store the information in the database.
If someone could help me I'd be very pleased.

Overwritting the values in the property files

Hi All
I am new to reading property file in java. I am able to read the property files but it is overwritting my key/value pair.
The main thing when I am comparing the adminname which is present in the property file with the username which I am getting in the servlet request.
Its only comparing the last key/value pair ie.., adminname=ghj.
Can anyone help me regarding this...please..
i need to check whether userName(Servlet request) matches with any one of the values(abc,cde ,fgh,ghj) present in the property file.
But in my case it is only comparing the last value only.
for Eg:
admin.properties
one key and number of values. Can I do this?
adminname=abc
adminname=cde
adminname=fgh
adminname=ghj
// if they want to add or remove the admin people they are going to do it from property file which is the text file.

Read the java.util.Properties API. You can't have multiple same keys. Use one key or a key with some suffix, e.g. adminname.1 and so on or so.
This has nothing to do with servlets. You've a problem with classes of java.util package, not of javax.servlet package. Use the 'New to Java' forum.

How can i get the value from a HTML Form

hi,
I am using HTML form (logfrm). there are userId field,password field, submit button,reset button, and a link.
when i click on the link, it should fetch the value of userid.
How it is possible?
AE

use jsp:
which lets you embed java statments in your html -so you when you click on the link you can use request.getParameter("userID") to get the userid.
Ideally with html forms use a combination of jsp and java beans, where the fields in the form are also fields in your java bean, which you can access through setters and getters.
google for some jsp tutorials.

I uploaded a mp4, but I can't use the URL in a HTML video-tag

I uploaded a mp4 video via the portal to my trial version Azure account. I then published it. I then encoded it. This produced an output file. I then published that output file. Then I copied the URL, and tried to play it in
my browser by pasting it in the address bar. I got an error that I can't explain - can you?:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
-<Error><Code>AuthenticationFailed</Code><Message>Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature. RequestId:1190a24a-860d-4c26-9948-6334393e4e9a Time:2013-10-07T19:41:29.5702692Z</Message><AuthenticationErrorDetail>Signature fields not well formed.</AuthenticationErrorDetail></Error>

I found out what is happening. When my website asks the user for his URL, which can be a YouTube URL, or a URL of a video / audio on a server, it checks that the URL is valid, and there really is a video or audio at that address. This does
not work with Azure.
Public Function UrlExists(ByVal url As String, ByRef Explanation As String) As Boolean
Dim URLReq As HttpWebRequest
Dim URLRes As HttpWebResponse
Explanation = ""
Try
URLReq = CType(WebRequest.Create(url), HttpWebRequest)
URLRes = CType(URLReq.GetResponse(), HttpWebResponse)
If (URLRes.StatusCode = HttpStatusCode.OK) Then
Return True
End If
Catch ex As Exception
Explanation = ex.Message
Return False
End Try
Return (False)
End Function
The code gives the (403) forbidden error in that case. I can suppress this test whenever the input is an Azure URL, but it does raise a question - is there any way to test that the azure URL that the user is using is real?
On another topic, my website also plays audio mp3 files, but Azure Media Services doesn't seem to be able to cope with those.
Thanks,
Gideon

Problem with html:select or html:options tags using struts,jsp and tomcat

Hi
I'm updating a Struts-Project to a new layout and therefore rework all jsp Sites.
I'm also using a new Folder-Structure and update therefore my struts-config file.
My Problem now is:
Till now, we had a select-field with a code like this:
< html:form action="/timetableAction" method="POST">
< table width="53%" border="0">
< tr>
< td>< html:radio property="dauer" value="semester"
/></ td>
< html:select property="semester" size="1">
< htmlptions name="semesterList" />
</ html:select>
</ html:form>
The problem now is, that whenever I use any <html:xy> tag, the tomcat server I use can not show the page, he shows just the headers of the template, but not the
content.-jsp-File where the form would be in. He stops right in the middle of the html page, when he notices the <html:xy> tags.
And the funny thing is, that he has no problem to show a page when there is a <html:errors> within it? Why could this be? the struts-html.tld File is well included and teh Tomcat Server shows no exceptions.
Waiting for you answers and thanks

Thank you, I already got the answer in another forum
