Converting an array to a list using javascript

There are several methods that return arrays, which we all know express cannot handle. The IDM faq metions you can use a script tag to manipulate array data, but gives no example. I like this method because some methods I encounter preface the object name with the object type, and the data needs to be cleaned before use. I always like little snippits that can be reused, so I'm sharing this one.
Here is how to convert an array to a list, assuming the array is captured in "stupidarray":
    <split>
      <script>
        var myarray = env.get('stupidarray');
        // Code to manipulate the array
        outputarray = myarray.join(",")
        // Other code to manipulate the string before output
        // i.e. Stripping out the object type tags!
        // outputarray.replace(/User:/g,"");
      </script>
      <s>,</s>
    </split>

there is a waveset util class provided for this, please check API

  • Unable to add items to dropdown list using javascript

    Hi,
    I'm trying to add additional items to a dropdown list at runtime using javascript.
    I'm doing this by invoking the addItem method on the dropdown list field during its initialize event.
    However when I run the generated pdf in Acrobat Pro, I get the following error in the console -
    GeneralError: Operation failed.
    XFAObject.addItem:3:XFA:form1[0]:#subform[0]:field0[0]:initialize
    Method: 'addItem' cannot be called because doing so would violate this document's permissions settings.
    The pdf form has no signatures or any other stuff in it.
    What additional permissions do I need to add and how ?
    You can view the pdf here -
    https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8022836/xfa3_test.pdf
    Thanks,
    Joel

    Is there a reason to use the code you did? It looks like the problem is with the variable's permissions when going through the template.
    This code works just fine in that same event:
    this.addItem("new item");
    As does:
    var f = xfa.resolveNode("form1.#subform1[0].field0");
    f.additem("new item");

  • Changing a select list using javascript

    Hi all,
    yesterday I had a doubt using apex_item.checkbox and how to change them using javascript:
    Re: Passing a checkbox as a parameter to a javascript function
    Today, I'm facing a similar problem, but with select lists. Here it goes. I have a report with apex_items, like this:
    select
    apex_item.checkbox(1,"ID",NULL,NULL,NULL,'f01_#ROWNUM#') " ",
    apex_item.select_list_from_lov(2,"SW_STATUS",'F2010051_SET_STATUS','onChange="setItems(''f01_#ROWNUM#'',''f03_#ROWNUM@'')"','NO') sTATUS,
    apex_item.select_list_from_lov(3,"REVISIO",'F2010051_SET_REVISIO',NULL,'NO','f04_#ROWNUM#') "REVISIO"
    from Fx1_vThe javascript code is as follows:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function setItems(cb,estat){
      elem = $x(cb);
      alert(elem.value);
      $x(cb).checked = true;
      elem2 = $x(estat);
      alert(elem2.value); 
    </script>The idea is that everytime the item g_f02 (a select list) changes, calls the JS function with two parameters: a checkbox (g_f01) and another select list (g_f03). The function should change the items to a defined values. The checkbox changes ok thanks to the help I got yesterday, but I can't work with the third item (select list g_f03). When I try to show the value, it says "undefined".
    how could I see the actual value of the select list LOV and change it to 1, for example?
    Thank you very much, any help will be appreciated!!!

    Hi,
    Do you have typo in query?
    Should it be

    apex_item.select_list_from_lov(3,"REVISIO",'F2010051_SET_REVISIO',NULL,'NO','f04_#ROWNUM#') "REVISIO"
    from Fx1_vAnd JavaScript
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function setItems(cb,estat){

    Thanks
    Manvir

    Hi,
    According to your description, I know you want to read versions of comments field.
    We can use the
    SPServices to achieve it. The below code for your reference:
    $().SPServices({
    operation: "GetVersionCollection",
    async: false,
    strlistID: "tester",
    strlistItemID: 1,
    strFieldName: "comments",
    completefunc: function (xData, Status) {
    $(xData.responseText).find("Version").each(function(i) {
    console.log("Name: " + $(this).attr("Information") + " Modified: " + $(this).attr("Modified"));

  • Is array-referencing syntax allowable when using javascript?

    Is the array-referencing syntax notation allowable when using javascript as the calculation language?  My hierachy looks like the following:<br /><br />    . form1<br />        . Area[0]<br />            . numHeight<br />            . numWidth<br />            . numDepth<br />        . Area[1]<br />            . numHeight<br />            . numWidth<br />            . numDepth<br />        . <etc><br /><br />Without getting into too many details, my need is for fields in the "Area[2]" container to access fields in the "Area[0]" container.  E.g. "this.rawValue = form1.Area[0].numHeight.rawValue;".  With this syntax, I received the following report:<br /><br />Generating PDF Document...<br />Script failed (language is javascript; context is xfa[0].form[0].form1[0].Area[2].numHeight[0])<br />script=this.rawValue = form1.Area[0].numHeight.rawValue;<br />   Error: Invalid property get operation; subform doesn't have property '0'<br />PDF generated successfully.<br /><br />1 warnings/errors reported.

    You can use resolveNode on basically anything, so yes you can access the record nodes within the xml data source. The function assist does not have anything when you do record but the nodes are created under record to match the nodes in your XML data source.
    I am not sure of what you are trying to do with your example - if you want to return a list of nodes match some expression, then there is another version of resolveNode method which does just that called resolveNodes()
    For example if you want to find all conditions_item nodes you would have:
    xfa.resolveNodes("xfa.record.conditions.conditions_item[*]")
    This returns a collection of Nodes and you can then use .length to see how many are returned. Make sure conditions is a child node of the root element. I am not sure, I think you do not specify the root node when accessing the record nodes.

  • How to create new subsite while adding new item to the list by using javascript?

    hi,
    I hav a task ie, when I add item to the list then subsite will create with that list item title and description . So By using javascript, I have to create subsite while adding new item to the list.
    Help me to solve this.
    Thank you, 

    Is your item getting added through Javascript client object model ? If yes, you can write in the success delegate of your list creation method the logic to create the subsite.
    function CreateListItem()
    var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    var oList = clientContext.get_web().get_lists().getByTitle('List Name');
    var itemCreateInfo = new SP.ListItemCreationInformation();
    this.oListItem = oList.addItem(itemCreateInfo);
    oListItem.set_item('Title', 'My New Item!');
    oListItem.set_item('Body', 'Hello World!');
    oListItem.update();
    clientContext.load(oListItem);
    clientContext.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.CreateListItemOnSuccess), Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQueryFailed));
    function CreateListItemOnSuccess() {
    var subsiteTitle = oListItem.get_item('Title');
    //Logic to create a subsite
    function onQueryFailed(sender, args) {
    I have added a sample flow for the above scenario. Have a look at the following lnk for how you can craete a subsite using ecmascript.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name" in SharePoint list form using JavaScript.
    To set "peoples or groups" field with current user "login name”,  you can use the below code:
    <script src="http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jquery/jquery-1.9.0.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function SetPickerValue(pickerid, key, dispval) {
    var xml = '<Entities Append="False" Error="" Separator=";" MaxHeight="3">';
    xml = xml + PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval);
    xml = xml + '</Entities>';
    EntityEditorCallback(xml, pickerid, true);
    function PreparePickerEntityXml(key, dispval) {
    return '<Entity Key="' + key + '" DisplayText="' + dispval + '" IsResolved="True" Description="' + key + '"><MultipleMatches /></Entity>';
    function GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField() {
    var context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    var web = context.get_web();
    this._currentUser = web.get_currentUser();
    context.load(this._currentUser);
    context.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onSuccess),
    Function.createDelegate(this, this.onFailure));
    function onSuccess(sender, args) {
    SetPickerValue('ctl00_m_g_99f3303a_dffa_4436_8bfa_3511d9ffddc0_ctl00_ctl05_ctl01_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_UserField', this._currentUser.get_loginName(),

  • Convert PS to PDF file in Adobe Distiller using javascript

    Hi scripters,
    I have created some PS files from Indesign using javascript. Files are d:\test\1.ps,2.ps
    Now I want to convert this ps files into pdf files uisng javascript?(I am not comfort to use export as PDF option for this job)
    how I can do this?
    Thanks in advance
    regards
    a r u l

    Hi arul
    Firstable, you may not need to create PS files as Indesign is able to produce PDF files natively. I was told that it was more reliable to do so using a certification profile such as PDFX.
    You will find a lot of PDF export script everywhere.
    However, if you want to go that way (PS to PDF). I did that once.
    First you determine into distiller a hotfolder where you ps files wille be generated. Then in the hotfolder options, you precise the profile you want to use. Otherwise, distiller may be using low quality PDF as default and your PDF may not be as good as you want.
    var distiller = File("c:/xxx/yyy/zzz/distiller.exe"); //the path to your distiller app.
    distiller.execute();
    Here you are !
