Development on SharePoint on-line using JavaScript in an Script Editor

Hi,
I’m doing a SharePoint development on SharePoint on-line using JavaScript in a Script Editor. I've changed the Calendar NewForm.aspx in SharePoint designer and I should check the Start Date and End date and I should change the procedure of Save button.
The problem is I cannot have the component ID’s. I even tried to create new components and rebuild the form but my script sometimes working and sometimes not working.
I've also tried SharePoint Apps in Visual Studio 2013 and Napa but I have problems accessing SP lists.
Could you please advise me?

Hi Sachin,
Before I read you reply, I had a "Eureka" moment that I was about to write about. I got my Javascipt to read my the value that was set in the Filterdropdown! However, you somewhat burst my balloon with the revelation about how re-sizing
window changes their size (i.e., Large to Medium, etc)? It is true, my function does not work when I click the "restore down" icon on the upper right corner of my window, then it works again when I maximize the window. That sucks : (
Oh, well. Thanks just the same!
For what it is worth, here is the script I wrote:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
//This function reads the digest using /contextinfo.
function ShowAlert()
alert(document.getElementById("Ribbon.ContextualTabs.MyWork.Home.Data-Large-2-1").textContent);
</script>
</head>
<body>
What filter am I set to? Click the Button snd I will tell you... <input type="button" value="Button" onclick="ShowAlert()";/>
</body>
</html>

hi friends

but it is not working
please help me

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(),
this._currentUser.get_title());
function onFaiure(sender, args) {
alert(args.get_message() + ' ' + args.get_stackTrace());
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(GetCurrentUserAndInsertIntoUserField, "sp.js");
</script>

Validate Sharepoint site url using javascript

Hi All,
I have the below requirement.
User enters sharepoint site in a textbox and clicks on button.
On button click, we have to validate the entered sharepoint site exist or not.
All the code should be in client side. No server side code
This should be achieved using javascript.
So, if anyone has a solution for this, could you please help me in sharing the code for the requirement.
Thanks & Regards,
Kishore
Kishore

Hi Kishore
Please go through the links and below code..
It'll help
Validation of the entered SharePoint Site
1. _spUserId (Variable)
This variable gives the ID of the logged in user. For an anonymous user, this variable will be empty.
var uid = _spUserId;
You can test this variable in the address bar of your browser. Try
javascript:alert(_spUserId);
You will see an alert message with the ID of the logged in user.
2. JSRequest (Object)
Using this JSRequest object, we can get the querystring, pathname and filename. Before using any of these properties, you should call JSRequest.EnsureSetup();
Ex: page url is http://www.xyz.com?qid=15
To get a querystring value
JSRequest.EnsureSetup();
var q = JSRequest.QueryString["qid"]; // q = 15
Similarly, you can use
JSRequest.EnsureSetup();
var f = JSRequest.FileName; // current page name
var p = JSRequest.PathName; // server relative url
3. GetUrlKeyValue(parameter, noDecode, url) (Method)
GetUrlKeyValue() is a javascript function using which we can get the Query string parameter either from url in the browser or a url that we specify.
parameter(string): query string parameter from the url.
noDecode(bool): specifies whether the value has to be encoded or not. If false value is decoded, else returned as it is.(Optional)
url(string): the url from which Query string values are to be retrieved.(Optional)
Ex:
alert(GetUrlKeyValue('a', false, 'www.xyz.com?a=te%20st'));
The above statement will return the value ‘te st’. Here we are specifying our own url.
alert(GetUrlKeyValue('a', false));
The above statement will look for a query string variable ‘a’ in the browser url, and returns the decoded value.
alert(GetUrlKeyValue('a'));
The above statement will look for a query string variable ‘a’ in the browser url.
4. _spPageContextInfo (Object)
_spPageContextInfo object has several useful properties, some are
a. webServerRelativeUrl (for current web)
b. siteServerRelativeUrl (current site collection url)
c. webLanguage (for localization)
d. currentLanguage (for localization again)
e. webUIVersion
f. userId (current user id just like _spUserId)
g. alertsEnabled (more for current page if it has any alerts on it)
h. allowSilverlightPrompt (to have that prompt or not on the page)
i. pageItemId
j. pageListId (Guid)
We can get the webServerRelativeUrl simply by saying
var url = _spPageContextInfo.webServerRelativeUrl;
All the remaining object properties can be used in the same way.
5. escapeProperly(str) (Method)
This function returns the URL encoded value of a given string.
var s = escapeProperly("hello world!!"); //s = "hello%20world%21%21"
6. unescapeProperly(str) (Method)
This function decodes a URL encoded string.
var s = unescapeProperly("hello%20world%21%21"); //s = "hello world!!"
7. STSHtmlEncode(htmlString) (Method)
This function encodes an html string
var s = STSHtmlEncode("<p>sample text</p>");
//s = "<p>sample text</p>"
8. TrimSpaces(str) (Method)
This method trims out the leading and trailing white spaces of a string. It doesn’t remove spaces created by special characters such as ‘\n’, \t’
var s = TrimSpaces(" Hello World!! "); //s = "Hello World!!"
I intentionally put more spaces between ‘Hello’ and ‘World!!’ just to show that this method doesn’t remove any spaces between words.
9. TrimWhiteSpaces(str) (Method)
This method trims out the leading and trailing white spaces of a string. It also removes spaces created by special characters such as ‘\n’, \t’
var s = TrimWhiteSpaces("\n\nHello World!!\t\t"); //s = "Hello World!!"
10. LoginAsAnother(url, bUseSource)
This method is used to login as different user.(as the name says)
url(string): the url of the page to which the new user has to be sent after login.
bUseSource(boolean): A boolean that indicates that the source will be added to the url, otherwise the source will be the window.location.href. This parameter is optional, default is false.
<a href="#" onclick="javascript:LoginAsAnother('\u002f_layouts\u002fAccessDenied.aspx?loginasanotheruser=true', 0)">Log on as a different user</a>
11. STSPageUrlValidation(url)
This function validates a url if it starts with “http” or “/” or “:” ONLY. It returns the url value back if it is a valid url and an empty value if it is an invalid url. If the url is not valid, an alert message is displayed that says “Invalid page URL:”.
var s = STSPageUrlValidation("praneethmoka.wordpress.com"); //s = praneethmoka.wordpress.com
var s = STSPageUrlValidation(":praneethmoka.wordpress.com"); //s = "";
var s = STSPageUrlValidation("w.wordpress.com"); //s = "w.wordpress.com";
Now please don’t ask me what kind of a validation this is.
STSPageUrlValidation(url) in turn calls a method PageUrlValidation(url) and here’s the code for PageUrlValidation method
function PageUrlValidation(url)
{ULSA13:;
if((url.substr(0, 4) == "http") || (url.substr(0, 1) == "/") || (url.indexOf(":") == -1))
return url;
else
var L_InvalidPageUrl_Text="Invalid page URL: ";
alert(L_InvalidPageUrl_Text);
return "";

Error when using function CDbl in Script Editor

Hello,
While using the CDbl function in the Script Editor I am getting the following error:
Error - 13 - Type mismatch: 'CDbl' at Line 24
The reason I am trying to use CDbl is that I get another error while importing the data from a .CSV file
Import Error = TC - [Amount=NN|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/] 01-000-1030,Cash in Bank - Payroll,837.83,0.00,"1,569.50",0.00
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
-Tony

Tony,
Please keep in mind that pressing 'Save' and then 'Run' without using the script in a workflow is sometimes not a valid test. As the scripting generally created inside of FDM needs to be part of a workflow and certain variables/functions are passed when that workflow is executed as a whole.
Hopefully this helps...

Has anyone used the IC Interactive scripting editor for the Webclient ?

We originally received the 'Loading %0' message when loading the editor via the IC_MANAGER business role. This was overcome by updating Java (See note 717921).
However, the editor now seesm to working, I can see two examples as standard, but when I click on them I do not see anything. I've ifnored this issue and have started to create my own question and answers in preparation for a script.
However, I have hit a few quirky things while using editor. Am I alone in this, or is this just the way it is.
I'm using the latest version of CRM 7.
If anyone's used this script editor I would dearly like to hear from you, especially in avoiding any upcoming nasties that I may hit.
A perfect example of this kind of problem is in how you create 'Answers'. If I highlight the answer section and click on the 'Create' button I have the options to create the following: Field, Objective script, Question, Action, Button and script, of which none of these are what I want. I can however create a question with an answer section, but of course when it comes to dragging a answer in to the answer box I can't do this as I can't create any answers. Am I missing something?.
With regards
Jason

Hi,
We are facing similar kind of problem in our scenario "Loading 0%". We have crm7.0, IE6 and JRE 1.5.0 version.
Kindly help us, which version of JRE do we need to use?
we reffered notes: 1105843, 717921. However this did not help us.
Kindly help us.
Thanks!

Add bookmarks to all pdf files at once using javascript or apple script

Hello
I have a folder containing pdf files of a survey.
There is also a 'surveyname.pdf' file which consists of a number of pages.
These pages have to be bookmarked for easy reference.There is a 'dummy.pdf' file which has all the bookmarks of the survey pages. I am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 to open this file.
There are also some map pdf's in the same folder.
How can I add the bookmarks that are in the 'dummy.pdf' file to all the other pdf files in the same folder at once instead of doing one at a time which consumes a lot of time for 100-120 files?
I use extendscript toolkit for writing the javscript or applescript code.
I would be grateful if anyone could help me in solving this.
Thankyou
Krishna

Here are some examples of doing the insert and the save in a separate operation. You can put them together on your own.

//From the JS Reference:
this.insertPages ({

Adding new javascript in LiveCycle script editor

The form has a Print button and already has this javascript xfa.host.print(1, "0", (xfa.host.numPages -1).toString(), 0, 1, 0, 0, 0);
How do I add the following javascript to the same button and its click event?
newDocName = "";
f1 = this.getField("topmostSubform[0].Page1[0].Last_Name[0]").valueAsString;
if (f1!="") newDocName += f1 + " ";
f2 = this.getField("topmostSubform[0].Page1[0].First_Name[0]").valueAsString;
if (f2!="") newDocName += f2 + " ";
f3 = this.getField("topmostSubform[0].Page1[0].Date[0]").valueAsString;
if (f3!="") newDocName += f3 + " ";
f4 = this.getField("topmostSubform[0].Page1[0].Email[0]").valueAsString;
if (f4!="") newDocName += f4;
newDocName = newDocName.replace(/[\\,\/,\:,\*,\?,\",\<,\>,\|,\,,\n,\r]/g,"");
docPath = this.path+"";
docPath = docPath.substring(0, docPath.lastIndexOf("/")+1);
mySaveAs(this,docPath+newDocName+".pdf");
I had this working in Acrobat on an earlier version of the same form (with an external script also in the Acrobat directory -- so it all worked perfectly), but on this form, I don't have full access. My only option is to try to add this javascript to save the file with a new filename by using LiveCycle.

Post your question in the forum for LiveCycle Designer.

Connect to Home Computer using Mail / iChat / Automator / Script Editor

http://screenerschoice.com/video_tutorials/ScreenSharing/ScreenSharing.html
1. Start with Automator > Choose Custom Workflow
2. Drag Launch Application into the window and choose iChat
3. With whatever account you have signed at home (you need 2 accounts), make sure it is logged on. On automator, hit the Record button and Watch Me Do will start recording. (You have to do it in this sequence and no shortcuts or it can get hung up and not continue with the script.)
4. Choose the Finder > Applications > Type iChat > Hit Apple O (for open)
5. In the iChat window for your buddy list click once on the name you want to share with
6. Then on the top menu, go to Buddies > Share my screen with ....
http://screenerschoice.com/video_tutorials/ScreenSharing/Automator.png
7. Save this workflow as an application
8. Open Applications > Applescript > Script Editor
9. Hit Record
10. Go to Finder > Then keep going through until you find the application you just created and double click on it. Then hit stop on Script Editor.
11. Save this as an application as well. Mail will run these apps, but not the Automator apps.
12. Go to mail and go to rules
13. Create a rule with a few stipulations that will trigger the script. This way, not just anyone can send a script to your computer to control it. It would have to meet all the criteria you set it. Then in the action list in the rule, go to run applescript and choose the file you created with Script Editor.
14. In mail at the other computer, it needs to be set to check mail every so often. I do mine every minute.
15. Also on that computer, the finder window needs to be open. If it is not, the script will not run properly. I don't have time to figure out a workaround for that, so in the meantime, I just open the finder window and minimize it to my dock.

Haven't tired it yet, but a thought would be to create an alias of iChat and place it on the desktop. Then save your scripts on the desktop as well. When you run everything from the desktop, you shouldn't have to have a Finder window open.

Unable to update rating (rating column) on host document using JavaScript Object Model API inside sharepoint hosted apps

Hi Everyone,
We are developing SharePoint hosted apps for Office 365, for that we are going
to implement document rating functionality inside Sharepoint app. The host web contain document library (“Documents”) and from apps we need to rate each document. The rating functionality working fine with CQWP in team site using
JavaScript Object Model API.
But the same code is not working inside apps and giving error:-
If we are using app context than error will be:-
"List does not exist.
The page you selected contains a list that does not exist. It may have been deleted by another user."
And for Host context than error will be:-
"Unexpected response data from server."

Thank you in advance! :-)


Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to update list column in SharePoint hosted apps using JavaScript Client Object Model.
Based on the error message, it seems not retrieve the list object in context. I suggest you debug the code step by step using Internet Explorer Developer Tools to
find the problem.
Here are some demos about using JavaScript Client Object Model in SharePoint hosted app:

Drawing Lines Photoshop CS4 using JavaScript

I am new to javascript and have read a manuel on the basics of javascript in regards to photoshop. I was just wondering how to draw a straight line using javascript. Thanks.

You could start by looking at the sample scripts that ship with photoshop to see a coding sample of stroking a selection. Then look at the doc on making selection and paths etc.
// Copyright 2002-2007. Adobe Systems, Incorporated. All rights reserved.
// Create a stroke around the current selection.
// Set the stroke color and width of the new stroke.
// enable double clicking from the Macintosh Finder or the Windows Explorer
#target photoshop
// in case we double clicked the file
app.bringToFront();
// debug level: 0-2 (0:disable, 1:break on error, 2:break at beginning)
// $.level = 0;
// debugger; // launch debugger on next line

Animation using JavaScript

Hi,
I have created an animation exercise for an eLearning lesson in a program that uses JavaScript as the scripting for a Windows executable. A retired social worker who creates these eLearning materials as give-away's to help people in the community improve health, it would be a big help to reaching more people if instead of a Windows executable version, the animation could be developed in a web page. A lot more people could view the eLearning and try this exercise which trains people in pacing their breathing.
The animation has a 300X300 circle on the canvas with a couple of text input boxes and a start button. The JS < 50 lines of script, but since it was not developed for a web page, it has no tags and it depends on objects like the circle or button (or 2 audio files to craete the inhale/exhale sounds) that were already placed on the canvas in the Windows executable program.
I'm not very skilled using Dreamweaver CS5, but with help, reading, references can try to convert this JS into a web version, if it's possible. Not sure how to do this and would appreciate any help.
I am adding a screenshot of the interface and the JS functions that are called by the start button.
//JS: ( bar1 is the variable entered by the use as breaths per minute-BPM; time1 is the exercise length; the variables initially are set as follows: time1=15, //volume=100)
var time1
function minuteTimer()
breakLoop = false
stopLoop = false
fork (calcBreathing)
for (var i=0;i<time1;i++)
    wait(60)
    breakLoop = true
    Submit.Show()
    Text122.Show()
    Text12.Show()
    TextInput22.Show()
    TextInput2.Show()

joel pau thank you for all the support.
now i will explain the anwer if anyone else will be stuck with the same problem.
first of all in edge animate need to mark all the things that created and "convert to symbol"(mark all and right click).
second:
in the top of your html file you got the script to the edge_preLoad.js .....
so now in your js code:
lets say we use append to add new div to our code and now we got <div id="new"</div>.
$.Edge.getComposition("yourCompositionID").createSymbolChild("yourSymbolThatCreatedInStepO ne","#new");
like this you can get new animation of the same composition.
if you want to conroll the animation you just need to take the id of the new symbol your created using jquery or any way you like.
and example of control it:
$.Edge.symbol.get("#theNewID").play();

Trying to open a page in IE-tab using javascript, script type="text/javascript" window.location.href="chrome://coralietab/content/container.html?url=0,myurl" /script Error:Component returned failure code:0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIDOMLocation.href]

I am trying to open a page in IE-tab using javascript like this, <script type="text/javascript"> window.location.href = "chrome://coralietab/content/container.html?url=0,myurl" ;</script>.Error occured : [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIDOMLocation.href]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame ::myurl :: load :: line 234" data: no] I have IE-Tab plug-in installed..when I open the same link manually in mozilla,it works fine and page gets opened in Ie-tab.

The only way this might be possible is by using the HostContainer object
to access the HTML page and do it from there.
