CFGRID with a SELECT box?

I am dabbling in making a CFGRID now that we have Fusion 8.
Ultimately I want to be able to output a grid of data that the user
can edit inline. Is it possible to have one of the columns of data
be a Select dropdown box? If so can the select dropdown box
automatically select the value in the dropdown box from the
database?

I have an action page. Here's my updated form and the
contents of my action page. I don't know if I actually need all the
stuff about the URL.ID. Right now, that just basically gives me the
current truck of the week in the input text box that used to be
there before I changed it to a select menu.
I actually have achieved the effect that I want by hard
coding the entries into a non-CF select menu. However, I'd really
like to get it working dynamically. I really don't know what I'm
getting wrong here. If you want to see the error that I get when I
update the page, visit the page here and try to change the
currentTOW. You won't mess anything up (because it doesn't work...

How to update database with a select box

I'm hoping someone can/will help me with a new feature I'm
trying to add to my web site. I'll summarize what I'm working with
and then proceed to what I'd like to do. This is the web site I'm
working on: www.truckerstoystore.net
I have a database for the Truck of the Week set up with the
information that is output on each page in the left column and
on the Truck of the week page itself. I add new Truck of the
Week (TOW) entries via a form I've put together. Right now, in
order to change the current TOW, I have to manually go into my
template and change the ID (which is automatically assigned when
the record is created, and thus makes it unique) in my SQL which
currently reads
SELECT *
FROM truckofweek
WHERE ID="4"
to the ID of the current TOW.
What I want to be able to do is create a new form that will
allow me to select the TOW entry that I want to be displayed from a
select box (drop down box). I have a good idea of how to populate
my select box, but don't know how to get it to work. My first idea
was to update the table in the database (Access) manually with a
new column called currentTOW, with values set to a Yes/No type,
with default values set to "No". Then I would use my form to set
the value for one of them to "Yes" so I could set my SQL to 'WHERE
currentTOW ="yes" ' I would also make a <cfif> statement that
checks for entries marked "Yes" and changes them to "No" when the
form loads to avoid setting 2 entries to "Yes" and my page thus
attempting to load 2 TOW entries.
My problem is, I don't know how to do any of this. I hope
I've described this situation well enough. I know there has to be
at least one guru on here that can help me. Any assistance would be
greatly appreciated.

Hey,
Thanks for replying. That sounds like a good idea, but I
don't know how to do it.
I started working on a new idea, where I have a second table
in the same datasource set up called currentTOW, with one field
called currentTOW and only one record. The idea is to send the
string of the "owner" field from the select box, which is populated
from the table called truckofweek to this one cell in the
currentTOW table.
This way, in my page which will display the data, I have 2
querys. The first pulls the data in the single cell from currentTOW
and outputs its string into the second query. I've attached the
code below. I get an error when I try to display the page, see the
error here:
www.truckerstoystore.net/currentTOW2.cfm.
However, the SQL looks like I want it to look, as "WHERE Owner =
Craig Carp" is essentially the same record that it displays now in
the live page "/currentTOW.cfm" only the SQL currently reads "WHERE
ID = 4" (4 and Craig Carp are part of the same record).

Javascript - Working with Dates, Selection Boxes & Pro-Rated Amounts to Calculate Costs

Hi, I'm looking for some help. I'm new to Javascript and working off my limited knowledge. Below are three (3) items I need help figuring out.
---JavaScript 1: Today---
I have a Document Level Javascript that gets the current date and automatically enters it into a field. Below is the example:
var f = this.getField("Today");f.value = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", new Date());
Problem: Each time I open the PDF, the date gets updated.
Need: I would like for the date to only be updated if the field is blank (empty).
---JavaScript 2: Registration Fee---
On this same form (application) I would like to calculate TWO costs. The first cost is mandatory registration cost, however the amount is prorated based on the month the application is filled out. Below is the pro-rated amounts based on the remaining months in the year:
Months Remaining     Fee
          12                       $15.00
          11                       $13.75
          10                       $12.50
          9                         $11.25
          8                         $10.00
          7                         $8.75
          6                         $7.50
          5                         $6.25
          4                         $5.00
          3                         $3.75
          2                         $2.50
          1                         $1.25
Note: The cost per month is $1.25. You are required to pay for the current month plus any remaining months.
So let's assume that you fill the application out in May 15th (05/18/2013). There are eight (8) months remaining in the year [May - Dec], so the pro-rated cost is $10.00 (See chart above).
For this calculation, I need to create a Document Level Javascript that would get the date from the field we used above called "Today" and calculate the "Registration Fee" based on the pro-rated amount. Then I would enter the cost into two fields (Dollars & Cents) as "10 00". (See below).
Form Example: $ [Text Field - Combo 2 characters] . [Text Field - Combo 2 characters] ---> "$ 10 . 00"
---JavaScript 3: Subscription Fee---
The next fee is an optional fee for a magazine subscription. On the form, the user will check a box (Named: "Subscription") if they want to subscribe to this magazine. This is similar to the example above in that the costs is based on a pro-rated amount. Below is the pro-rated amounts based on the remaining months in the year:
Months Remaining               Fee
          12                       $12.00
          11                       $11.00
          10                       $10.00
          9                         $9.00
          8                         $8.00
          7                         $7.00
          6                         $6.00
          5                         $5.00
          4                         $4.00
          3                         $3.00
          2                         $2.00
          1                         $0.00
Note: The cost per month is $1.00. Unlike the previous example, you are ONLY required to pay for the remaining months.
So let's assume that you fill the application out in May 15th (05/18/2013). There are eight (7) months remaining in the year [Jun - Dec], so the pro-rated cost is $7.00 (See chart above).
For this calculation, I need to create a Document Level Javascript: If the user checks a box (Named: "Subscription") requesting the subscription, then get the date from the field we used above called "Today" and calculate the "Subscription Fee" based on the pro-rated amount. I would enter the cost into two fields (Dollars & Cents) as "10 00". (Same as above).
Thanks,
Stephen

Two questions:
1. For "function calculateRegistrationFee", how do I format the return value into 2 parts in order to populate the different fields below. Let's use this example, see screen shot below:
2. For "function calculateSubscriptionFee", how do I format the return value into 2 parts (like question 1) & adjust for check box variable. If the user checks a box (named: "Subscription") requesting the subscription, then calculate cost. Else cost is $0.00. See screen shot:
Thanks,
Stephen

Need help with moving items betwen 2 netui select boxes

Hi,
I have 2 multiple select boxes for possible courses and assigned courses. I need a way to implement move of option items from one box to another using buttons. The user can select courses from one box and move them to another. I am not sure how I would do that with netui select boxes and a pageflow method. If I use javascript, i get all kinds of errors even though I am trying to use the tagid. If validation fails, then the select boxes dont save the updated content.
Please help.

3 cfgrids on one page. Columns from grid 1,2 and 3 are swapping the first select box from each grid.

ColdFusion 11, hot fix 3 installed but did not help. There are no binds.
This one has been driving me crazy and I have finally figured out that it is the first column in each grid where there is a select box via "valuesdisplay" that is the issue. Select box results are switching grids!
Example of how it is coded to display:
Grid 1 - gridcolumn should have a dropdown with 1,2,3
Grid 2 - gridcolumn should have a dropdown with a,b,c
Grid 3 - gridcolumn should have a dropdown with x,y,z
However, the results in the dropdowns in the grids are:
Grid 1 - x,y,z (should be 1,2,3)
Grid 2 - 1,2,3 (should be a,b,c)
Grid 3 - a,b,c (should be x,y,z)
This only happens with the first dropdown for each grid. Any other columns with dropdowns do not have any issues and do not swap out to the wrong grid.
Sample of my code from the grids:
Grid 1:
<cfgrid name = "evalgrid"
height="200"
autowidth="no"
font="arial" fontsize="12"
query = "getevalfinal"
SORT="Yes"
selectmode="edit"
format="html"
insert="yes"
delete = "#deletevalue#">
<CFGRIDCOLUMN NAME="numberofschools" HEADER="numberofschools"
HEADERALIGN="LEFT" DATAALIGN="LEFT"
BOLD="Yes" ITALIC="No"
SELECT="Yes" DISPLAY="Yes"
HEADERBOLD="Yes" HEADERITALIC="No"
VALUES = " ,NA,1,2,D"
VALUESdisplay = "Blank,NA,1,2,D" valuesDelimiter=","
width=50>
</cfgrid>
Second Grid:'
<cfgrid name = "SecondGrid"
height="100" width="700"
font="arial" fontsize="12"
query = "getsecurity"
SORT="Yes"
selectmode="edit"
format="html"
insert="yes"
delete = "#deletevalue#"
autowidth="yes"
>
<CFGRIDCOLUMN NAME="userrole" HEADER="userrole"
HEADERALIGN="LEFT" DATAALIGN="LEFT"
BOLD="Yes" ITALIC="No"
SELECT="Yes" DISPLAY="Yes"
HEADERBOLD="YES" HEADERITALIC="No"
VALUES = "#olduserrole#"
VALUESdisplay = "#olduserrole#" valuesDelimiter=","
WIDTH=300
font="arial" fontsize="12">
</cfgrid>
In the above code, userrole values end up being in the wrong grid where numberofschools values should be and vice versa.
Appreciate any help!

Plotting a combination chart with a combo box for selection

Hi:
I am a newbie using xcelcius and I need help on the following:-
I need to create a combination chart that plots 3 years data by month, and I need a combo box selection at the top that allows me to select user display for each difference region. I manage to create one that plots only 2008 data with a combo-box selection, but I have no idea how to do it for a combi chart in xcelcius. Any advise?

Hi Ning,
I assume your data are like this:
Region             Year     Jan     Feb     Mar
APJ             2006     $234.45     $310.34     $321.54
APJ             2007     $314.35     $319.12     $256.89
APJ             2008     $425.54     $354.34     $285.73
North Asia     2006     $534.64     $642.35     $484.64
North Asia     2007     $631.74     $654.13     $754.34
North Asia     2008     $754.31     $423.65     $634.32
South East Asia     2006     $536.42     $576.35     $525.42
South East Asia     2007     $426.78     $876.43     $643.75
South East Asia     2008     $634.87     $425.77     $732.43
If this, you can set the insertion type of combo box is "Filtered Rows", see steps:
1) For Combo Box, bind General > Labels to the Region column.
2) Set General > Data Insertion > Insertion Type is "Filtered Rows" (you can refer to following flash to see how "Filtered Rows" works).
3) Set its Source Data are Year, Jan, Feb, ... columns and Destination to blank cells.
4) Bind Chart to the destination data.
Now when you select APJ from Combo Box, it will insert all the rows of APJ data to the desitination cells which will be displayed in Chart.
Hope this can help!

ADF Tree with Boolean Check Box: How to find selected items

Hi Experts,
ADF: 11.1.1.5.0
WLS: 10.3.6
I am using an ADF Tree which contains elements at two levels (say Departments and Employees). My requirement is to give provision for user to select Departments and Employees using the check boxes. User should be able to select what ever Departments he/she likes and what ever employees he/she likes. There should not be a provision to select Employee with out selecting the corresponding Department (root node in the tree).
I am facing the below issues while trying to implement this use case:
1. Always, only the first master record will be expanded by default (I am using "Display Row" property value as "default" and "ExpandAllEnabled" as "true"). My need is to expand all the master records by default. So that user need not explicitly expand each master record node and then select the associated child records.
2. Currently, I am using value change listener associated to af:selectBooleanCheckBox to identify the Departments and Employee records that have been selected. Since not all departments (masters) are expanded by default, if user selects the check box of department (master) and then expands the department node, automatically all the employees of that department are selected. But, this event is not triggering the value change listener for the employee records. Because of this, after a department node is selected and then expanded, all the child elements' check boxes are selected but the events are not generated. Hence, I am not able to capture the selection of employee records.
To summarize,
1. Please let me know how to expand all master nodes in af:Tree by default.
2. Please let me know the best approach to identify the selected items (both master and detail items) in the af:Tree component using af:selectBooleanCheckBox.
Thanks in advance,
Rathnam

Help with building a select box from a query?

New thread from a topic I started yesterday. From the responses, and a search of other threads, I realized that I was way off base:-) So, I went back and verified that my TomCat setup was alright. After a few tweeks I verified that I could display the index page and successfully run all of the example servlets and jsps. I then built a simple login.jsp and an associated bean to verify a user id and password on an ldap db. That works good. Next, I built a bean which runs a query against the same ldap db and returns a list of last names. What I want to do is use the last names in the bean to populate my select box. At first I was trying to build the html with the list from my bean, i quickly realized you guys didn't like that approach. So, can someone explain, in some detail (because I'm really dense), just how I can return the values from my bean and build a select box with those values.

Just in general, I prefer knowing how to do things the "old-fashioned way" first before using other tools, because if it comes time for you to take over someone else's code, you'll probably find that they did it the old way and you'll want to understand that. Further, the new ways are based on the old ways for many things.
Struts is a good system, but unless you have some understanding of the basics, it's probably going to be harder to understand it. If you have the time, I'd say at least go thru one book on JSP/servlets (which should be all about the basics, maybe a slightly older book) and go thru the examples in it.

I no longer get the hallow boxes when I select something with the selection tool.

I'm really frustrated. I use to be able to select an object with the selection tool and the bounding box would have hollow squares on the corners and in the centers of each side. I could use these to transform the object. Now the bounding box appears but the hollow boxes are missing and i have to use the free transform tool, which when I use to lengthen a text box vertically it stretched the text instead of just enlarging the bounding box. I have tried cntrl + shift + B but that does not solve the problem, What am I doing wrong and how on earth can I fix it. Please help.

Two things I can suggest:
1) Under view make sure that the show bounding box is checked.
2) My Illustrator does that sometimes. The bounding box will not have the corners. I just select the artwork then click on the selection tool again and they show up.....I guess its a glitch.

Help with a Custom JSP - Select Box (entry view definition).

I'm in no way an expert in HTML so please bear with me. We have quite a large list of Job Titles that we use on multiple forms and I wanted to use a custom jsp so I only have to update our title list once if we add/remove titles at our organization. I created a simple select box with all our titles and put them on the Vibe server under the custom jsp folder. The select box shows up on the entry form definition no problem... I just don't know how to make it show up on the entry view definition. The code is obviously pretty basic:
<html>
<select name ="Title">
<option value ="Title1">Title1</option>
<option value ="Title2">Title2</option>
<option value ="Title3">Title3</option>
<option value="Title4">Title4</option>
</select>
</html>
What do I need to do in order for it to show up on the entry view definition side of things? Could anyone with html and/or Vibe knowledge please chime in? I'd really appreciate it.

Try the following custom JSP, it works fine in my environment.
Construction is a s I said before: while in edit mode (add or modify) it appears as Select Box, otherwise gives the value only.

"Dynamic List Box with Single Selection" Survey Suite in CRM 6.0

Hi
I am using CRM 6.0. There in Survey Suite there are 2 answering options "Dynamic List Box with Single Selection" & "Dynamic List Box with Multiple Selection". I am able to make out, how we can assign values to this. I have seen example "Example_Dynamic_survey" also.
I believe we have to use programming for populating this. But how do we have to carry that out.
Thanx and Regards
Hitesh

Hi Hitesh,
There is no need of programming for populating values for Answer category 'List Box with Single Selection' or 'List Box with Multiple Selection'. You have to follow the following steps to populate values for those:
- In the Answer Category select List Box with Single Selection from drop down list
- Then on left hand side tree, right click on Answer and select Insert Answer Option (Answer->Insert Answer Option)
- Then on right side, provide Text for the answer (value)
- To add more values, repeat the process Answer->Insert Answer Option and providing text for those answers in the right side.
Similarly you can populate values for 'List Box with Multiple Selection' also.
This has to be done in the transaction CRM_SURVEY_SUITE.
Hope this is clear to you

How to fill selection box with clientside data?

i want to make a html form that reads option values from the client.
Because there are too many data, it's not reasonable for me to design a page which connects to server each time to fill the selection boxes.Instead i want to check if data resides at the clientside, if so fill selection boxes with that data, if not download it for the first time and store it on the client for later local retrieval.In addition i must be able to update that data residing on the client when i want.

Hi,
I can tell you some hints. Use cookies to store the information on to the client-side. You can read data from cookies using JavaScript. If you want to store huge amount of data on to the client-side, perhaps this would not be a better idea. In J2EE architecture we often use sessions to store values. You need to design your implementation in such a way that for the first time you fetch all the values from the database and put it in a session, and the next time onwards you can get the values from the session itself and thereby you can avoid going to database each and everytime. Write a Java class which has all the necessary get and set methods and store the object in the session. Using that object reference you can set and get the values from it. I hope this will help you.

How can i fill selection box on html form with data on the clientside?

hi
i want to make a html form that reads option values from the client.
Because there are too many data, it's not reasonable for me to design a page which connects to server each time to fill the selection boxes.Instead i want to check if data resides at the clientside, if so fill selection boxes with that data, if not download it for the first time and store it on the client for later local retrieval.In addition i must be able to update that data residing on the client when i want.

Don't see where Java comes into this. Sounds like you'd be using JavaScript on the client.
A cookie would probably be the only way to save data on the client.
