Attaching an action to a button in Javascript

Hey guys,
I'm playing around with attaching an action to a button in javascript but I'm just not getting it
I've tried putting it into a function like so
function deleteSwatches () {
= app.doScript("Delete Unused Swatches", "Custom Art Actions");
Then calling the action with said function but it doesnt respond.
Any ideas?

Try this:
!!! CS6 required
var w = new Window('dialog', '');
btnProd = w.add('button',undefined,'Delete unused swatches');
btnProd.onClick = function() {
    //alert ("Delete, if your action with the defined name is available !AND! CS6 required")
    deleteSwatches ()
w.show();
function deleteSwatches () {
    app.doScript("Delete Unused Swatches", "Custom Art Actions");
Otherwise looking for a John Wundes script, which do the same.
Have fun

Can't attach action to a button?

This is a newbie question. I've made an animated button and
it plays back just as I want it to when preview it, but when I
choose it on the stage and try to attach an action to it (goto
frame etc) "I get a message that says Current selection cannot have
actions applied to it"
I'm stumped. I mean, it's a button, so you have to be able to
attach functionality somewhere, but how?
Thanks!

Chances are your file is set up for AS3, which will not allow
code to be attached to objects (AS2 does). All code for an AS3 file
must be placed on the timeline.

How can I attach a PDF in an email, using javascript in PDF document?

How can I attach a PDF in an email, using an interactive button in the PDF-document?
I tried to create a form button with the menu action 'attach this PDF in an email'.
This Send.to-action doesn't work with Microsoft.
Does anyone has a solution by implementing a javascript-code for this in the PDF?

Dick,
Thanks for your replie.
Nice alternative, but it still doesn't work on a Windows machine when the
mail software from Microsoft doesn't react on PDF actions.
You can do many things in Acrobat, but it is a problem when it doesn't work
on Windows and iPad.
So now I am looking for alternatives like interactive magazine software
(based on html5).

send_reminder needs to be defined as an application process
Alternatively, you can define a dynamic action and do this more declaratively.
It's easy to define a DA that fires on click of a button that runs PL/SQL, and you can also define which page items are sent to and received from the plsql via session state.

I am not able to see the SOP on a specific page means action is not called.
Any idea why button on that specifci page is not called ?
Thanks in advance,
Vikas

Which page?
Which jdev version?
Which UI technology you are using?
What's the difference to the other pages?
How do you get to the page in question?

Add action to a button

Hi everybody,
i�m a beginner programming JAVA. So i think the question will be so easy.
How can I add an action to a button created on a container???
i.e. i want that when pressing the button, a word document can be opened.
thank you very much in advance.

hi,
you need to add a listener to the button such as an actionlistener:
JButton button1 = new JButton();
button1.addActionListener(new buttonListener());
// This should be an inner class
class buttonListener implements ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
System.out.println("Event generated!");
}you an use an inner class to handle the event, pass the addActionlistener an object of the inner class, the inner class here should implement the actionlistener interface which has the actionPerformed method. You need a listener, best place to find one is the API.

Creation of UI Element on the action of a button?

Hi,
Can we create some UI Element on the action of some button, i.e. writing code to create UI Element outside the wdDoModifyView() method of the view?
Regards,
Smriti.

Hi,
We can create an UI element dynamically, on button click action..Follow the steps given below:
1. Create a static variable say ' myvar ' of type com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDView in last declaration part(ie. inside //@@begin others //@@end.
Eg: static IWDView myview;
2. 2. In wdDoModifyView(), add the following
myview=view;
3. Now add the following code in the "OnAction<Submit>" event to create an UI element dynamically:
IWDTransparentContainer rootContainer = (IWDTransparentContainer)view.getElement("RootUIElementContainer");
IWDLinkToAction Link1 = (IWDLinkToAction) view.createElement(IWDLinkToAction.class, "Link1");
rootContainer.addChild(Link1);
Hope it helps!!!

Associating two events with submit button using javascript in jsp

Hi
How can i Associate two events with submit button using javascript in jsp. Firstly it should insert the data to database and secondly it should close the same pop-up window

Have something like :
<input type="submit" name="submitbtn" value="Click me" onClick="function1(); function2(); " />
You just call both functions sequentially, it's that simple. Although using javascript to work with a database, that seems a bit tricky.

Can we perform two actions with one button with two clicks one after other?

Sir,
can we perform two actions with one button with two clicks one after other?
I want that when I click an Add Button first time it add data to the database and when I click again this button it clear the form data to empty fields.
Regards
Tanvir

In code it should be easy.
The following code adds a button called butman with a text "ADD".
It then registers a listener that will be called if the button is clicked.
This listener then calls the runAddData method if you clicked on butman while it contained the "ADD" text and it will call the runClearData method otherwise.
Therefore it will swap the button's functionality between ADD and CLEAR on every click.
final Button butman = new Button("ADD");
butman.setOnAction(new EventHandler<ActionEvent>() {
          @Override
          public void handle(ActionEvent t) {
                    if (butman.getText().equals("ADD")) {
                              butman.setText("CLEAR");
                              runAddData();
                    } else {
                              butman.setText("ADD");
                              runClearData();
                    } // END IF-THEN
          }});I hope this is what you wanted.
Some extra food for thought.
You might want to run the ADD and CLEAR methods in their own threads so that it can run in the back ground, without slowing down your user interface.
I also like to rather reuse one button for multiple functionality in stead of making an application with hundreds of nodes only used rarely with masses of code to show and hide them if needed.

Disable button using javascript

Hi,
I'm sorry if this is a relatively simple problem, but I have tried several things and have searched the forum, but still no luck!
I am trying to get a button in a form to be disabled or hidden on loading the page and only to become enabled or shown once an 'onclick' event occurs. I already have a javascript function running successfully on the 'onclick' event, so there is no problem with that.
Preferably I would like the button to be template driven, but I realise that disabling/hiding it may only be possible with an HTML button.
I have tried the following JavaScript, but it appears to do nothing:
document.getElementById('P6_OK').disabled=true;
$x_HideItemRow('P6_OK');
If the JavaScript is ok it is probably the way I am implementing it into the HTML.
Thanks
Lucy

Hi,
I'm still having troubles with this (see above). If anyone has successfully managed to disable a button using JavaScript I would be interested in how they did it.
To clarify, I have tried the following two pieces of script, among others:
(1) document.getElementById('P6_OK').disabled=true;
(2) $x_HideItemRow('P6_OK');
I have read quite a few forum links and followed what others have done, but in vain.
Thanks for your help

Hide an HTML button using javascript

Hi,
I need to hide an html buttton using javascript. I have an radio button with values "YES" and "NO". If is select NO then i need hide the button without refreshing the page. Can anyone suggest me how to hide an button using javascript.
Thanks
Prashanth

Prashanth,
The exact solution will vary based on a few factors. The basic idea is to place an event handler on the radio button item that calls a function to hide/show the button. You might also want to call that function when the page loads too.
If you put an example page on apex.oracle.com and provide the workspace/username/password I'll take a look. You can create a new account for this purpose.

Accessing Properties of Individual Tool Buttons via JavaScript

Hi all!
I am new to both this forum and scripting Acrobat so please excuse me if the question sounds naive.
I am trying to find a way to access the properties of individual tool buttons via JavaScript (if there is one). I could not find it yet in JS API Reference. If anybody can help me or direct me to the right way, I will greatly appreciate that.
For example, in 'Comment & Markup' toolbar one can right-click and change the 'Tool Default Properties' of various markup tools like Highlighter, Line, Rectangle etc. Is it possible to access these properties through JavaScript so that buttons can be added for dynamically changing these? Hope this makes sense!
Thanks in advance for your interest and help.
John.

Hi Andy, thanks for the answer. It was pretty simple - I just added an authorization scheme to the report column, wehre the javascript is executed. Christof
