Help setting the behavior of a button, possible using a variable

Hi,
This is my first time posting here and I'm sure I will be coming back, because I'm about to start a big project.
The Problem:
What I'm trying to do is get the user's input (text field = new_title), then having a button that will take that input and use it as part of a URL.
The following will be the destination URL:
http://www.mysite.com/wiki/index.php?title=new_title_from_text_field&action=edit&redlink=1
The Background:
I have installed Media Wiki in my website, but I want to have a more straight forward approach to creating new pages. So I'm creating an introductory page where the user can enter the title of the page he/she wants to create, click a button and go to the editing page from the Wiki, with their new title in place.
Thanks, I appreciate any advice you can give me.
Daniel

Bregent and Michael,
Thanks for your help, I used both of your answers and came up with the following. I'm not sure if it's done in the "propper" way, but it accomplished what I needed.
Please let me know what you think.
<form action="http://www.mysite.com/wiki/index.php?title=" method="get" name="form1" target="_parent">
    <input type="text" name="title" id="title">
    <input name="action" type="hidden" id="action" value="edit">
    <input name="redlink" type="hidden" id="redlink" value="1">
    <input type="submit" name="new_page" id="new_page" value="Create">
</form>
Thanks,
Daniel

Setting the 'Return-Path' of emails sent using the send email behaviour

Hi,
How do I set the 'Return-Path' of emails sent using the send email behaviour? I am having troubles because the emails sent from my page are being filtered out as spam when they should be coming through. the text is the following (it is the notification of an e-card to the recipient):
Dear Bart
We've decided this year to share our holiday greetings while also showing our commitment to protect the planet. Since it takes 24 mature trees to
produce one ton of greeting cards, this e-card shares our holiday wishes with both you and future generations.
Please follow the link below.
Best Wishes,
John
http://www.jdgcsfiles.com/_ecards/viewcard.php?ID_cnt=297
I suspect that it has something to do with the return path setting.
Can anyone help me on this one and get it through the spam filters of most email clients?!
Thanks,
NIk

Hi Nik,
so far the only "flagged as spam" reason I know of is, that ADDT curreently misses to insert the current date/time -- please try the fix mentioned in the thread http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3c034953/5 and see if it helps

Is it possible to set the stateof a command button

I want to call a function when the user presses a command button (left click), then wait until he releases the mouse button, then call a second function.
Here is the code for EVENT_LEFT_CLICK:
CallFunction_1(...)
GetRelativeMouseState(panel, control, 0, 0, &mouseLButton, 0, 0);
while(mouseLButton)
ProcessSystemEvents();
ProcessDrawEvents ();
GetRelativeMouseState(panel, control, 0, 0, &mouseLButton, 0, 0);
CallFunction_2(...)
My Problem is, that the button does not chage its state to "pressed", so it appears to the user that he has not clicked on it.
Is there any possibility to set the command button th the pressed state?

The reason for this is that the LEFT_CLICK event has not been processed yet. We allow you to "swallow" any event to basically eliminate the built in effect of that event. In your case you want the normal effect of the LEFT_CLICK event to occur (button appears pressed on the panel), but you also want to launch a loop to check when the mouse has been released. This is easily done through posting a deferred call. A deferred call allows the current event to be completed and then calls the deferred callback after that. So your code would be changed to:
In LEFT_CLICK,
CallFunction_1(...)
PostDeferredCall (funcName, (void*)control);
Then write a function "funcName" with prototype:
void CVICALLBACK funcName (void *callbackData);
and code:
void CVICALLBACK fu
ncName (void *callbackData)
int control = (int)callbackData;
int mouseLButton = 0;
GetRelativeMouseState (panel, control, 0, 0,
&mouseLButton, 0, 0);
while(mouseLButton)
ProcessSystemEvents();
ProcessDrawEvents ();
GetRelativeMouseState (panel, control, 0, 0,
&mouseLButton, 0, 0);
CallFunction_2(...)
This should solve your problem.

Help comparing the value of a button using the Property Node (I get a variant)

Dear Sirs:
(I'm using LabView 6. I guess the solution is different for 6.1)
Currently I have created an array of Boolean RefNums (which point to many, many buttons). When I need to know when any (and which) of the buttons was pressed I just compare every element on the array with the constant TRUE. It fact, as the array is built from RefNums, I should compare the VALUE from the Property Node.
The problem here is that the Property Node for this type of Boolean is a LV Variant, and I need to compare this with a TRUE/FALSE value.
I tried to convert the TRUE constant to a LV variant and visc. But nothing works... I always get that none of the buttons was pressed.
Here it co
mes the question: "How can I compare the value of a Property Node for a Boolean (Button) with a TRUE (or False) constant?"
BTW, maybe I should explain why I'm using RefNums instead of the direct values: As my project requires tons of buttons, I would preffer using RefNums to refer to them. (I.E. I could use a single VI that takes the RefNum and formats the button to hide it for certain users).
I have enclosed a VI that contains what I've achieved until now, which is nothing
I appreciate your time and help.
Best regards,

Javier,
There is another problem in your code: the booleans are not polled by the main loop so they will remain false until the user presses them again. This renders the boolean latch action useless.
What you can do is to change the mechanical action of the booleans to non-latch. When you detect a "true" in the polling loop, set the boolean to false again. One added benefit is that once all boolean are non-latch, the value property won't be a variant but a boolean so conversion is no longer needed.

Need help setting the exact size of my JSlider

Hello everyone. I'm trying to build a small program to help people learn a about RGB colour values, and at the same time teach myself a bit more about Java. Things have been going fine so far until I came to setting my JSlider's size. The intention is to have three JSliders with a JPanel next to each. The I need the track of the slider to be exactly 256 pixels tall (one pixel per gradient value painted into the adjacent JPanel) plus whatever extra padding and spacing the Look And Feel dictates.
I've got the height set to 256 pixels in the following code, but it makes the JSlider as a whole 256 pixels tall and so squishes the track. I've set the minor tick spacing to 2 so that if the track was actually 256 pixels tall, the ticks would alternate over each screen pixel. If you compile and run the code, you will notice that a few ticks appear next to each other without a one-pixel gap between them. I've also verified it by taking a screen capture, pasting it into the GIMP and then using the measure tool to check the size.
I've tried searching through the API documentation to find ways of doing it, or to see if some ideas I've had so far were possible, but so far, I've not found anything particulairly satisfactory. I even tried to see if I could set the JSlider size to current JSlider size minus the track size, plus 256, but I couldn't find a way of getting the current size of the track.
Can anyone help me out here? I'm rather stuck.

Here's the code with all but the JSliders stripped out. Sorry about having to put it in a seperate post; the forum wouldn't allow it.

Setting the visibility of a button after a click on a TabbedPane

I have a page with a Tabbed Pane.
I would like to set the visibility of a command button when I click on a Tab.
To do that I put a disclosureListener like this:
<af:panelTabbed position="above" testId="Tab1" >
<af:showDetailItem id="Tab1" text="Tab1" disclosureListener="#{prova.apri}">
<af:outputText value="Table1"/>
</af:showDetailItem>
<af:showDetailItem id="Tab2" text="Tab2">
<af:outputText value="Table2"/>
</af:showDetailItem>
</af:panelTabbed>
In the backing bean I have the attribute bound to the commandButton and the listener method like this:
public void apri(DisclosureEvent disclosureEvent)
// Add event code here...
RichShowDetailItem o =
(RichShowDetailItem) disclosureEvent.getSource();
this.commandButton1.setVisible(true);
this.commandButton1.setRendered(true);
It doesn't work !! I guess I'm missing something....
Could someone help me??
Thanks a lot.
Alfredo

Based on the code you provided it does not look like you are using a partialPageTrigger, which would be required in this case.

Help: Setting the multipart/related start parameter

I am wanting to set the "start" parameter on my ContentType header for
a multipart related message. Something like below.
DATA
ContentType: multipart/related; boundary=_XXX; start="<somecid@domain>"
I can set the content type to "multipart/related" by calling
MimeMultipart.setSubType(), but I cannot figure out how to set the
"start" parameter.
Anyone know.
Thanks,

Does the SMTP server accept the mail for delivery of does it reject it?
If it doesn't reject it, is the issue with the format of the mime message, or possibly with whatever mail reader you are using.
It the SMTP server does reject the message I suppose the next question is what exactly is the "SMTP" server you are using?
IMHO you should not need to add anything to the mime multipart headers if using any RFC compliant SMTP server or reader. No-where in RFCs 2045,2046,2049,2822 etc can I find anything that relates to this "start" parameter.
If the SMTP server is a "proper" SMTP server it should not give two hoots about the mime multipart/mime body parts of the message as it "should" only be interested in the headers required to deliver the email. The mime multi/body part headers are generally not used to deliver. They are used by a Mime compliant mail reader to format and display the message.
We use Javamail to send regular "Newsletters" via a numbers of SMTP mail serviers running on IBM AS/400s, Sendmail on Unix, Lotus Notes servers and and others and have no problems.
If you want to send me your code to run on our systems to see if it really is your SMTP server or your message format that is giving trouble I can probably help. I can't open up a server for you as we have rather strict policies on who can do what with our servers. You can of course use our normal SMTP server to send a test email to me!!

it doesn't do anything, stays at the same placeIt's all about context here and there are still many unknowns here that can effect your result and that you have not told us or shown us. My suggestion to you is to consider posting an SSCCE (Short, Self Contained, Correct (Compilable), Example, a condensed program similar to your current program in that it demonstrates the problem at hand, but is the smallest bit of code that still compiles and has no extra code that's not relevant to your problem. For more info on SSCCEs please look here:
[http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html|http://homepage1.nifty.com/algafield/sscce.html]
Also, when posting your code, please use code tags so that your code will retain its formatting and be readable. To do this, you can will need to paste already formatted code into the forum, highlight this code, and then press the "code" button at the top of the forum Message editor prior to posting the message. You may want to click on the Preview tab to make sure that your code is formatted correctly. Another way is to place the tag [code] at the top of your block of code and the tag [/code] at the bottom, like so:
[code]
// your code block goes here.
// note the differences between the tag at the top vs the bottom.
[/code]or
{code}
// your code block goes here.
// note here that the tags are the same.
{code}good luck, pete

Help: set the list item when scrollbar scrolls

i need help regording how to set the listbox list item to be selected (i.e. item to be highlighted) when the vertical scrollbar scrolls.

Hi Shreyas,
You can insert the code below into the NewForm.aspx page of the list via a Script Editor web part:
<script type="text/javascript">
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("ready");
function ready()
//12/04/2015 - 18/04/2015
var sd = "";
var ed = "";
var d = new Date();
//get start date of the week
d.setDate(d.getDate() - d.getDay());
sd = convertDate(d);
//get end date of the week
d.setDate(d.getDate() + (6 - d.getDay()));
ed = convertDate(d);
//populate the string into the Title field
var title = document.querySelector("input[title='Title']");
title.value = sd+" - "+ed;
function convertDate(inputFormat) {
function pad(s) { return (s < 10) ? '0' + s : s; }
var d = new Date(inputFormat);
return [pad(d.getDate()), pad(d.getMonth()+1), d.getFullYear()].join('/');
</script>
It will populate the “Title” field with the text like “12/04/2015 - 18/04/2015” based on current date when adding a new item in this list in the NewForm.aspx page:

you can use horizontalGap property on HBox to change the

also use <mx:Spacer/>, but changing the gap on HBox is
probably the cleanest way ;)

Go to Start menu and select Control Panel. In the Control Panel, double click on System. In the System dialogue, choose the Advanced tab. Then click on Environmental Variables. Select Path and Edit. Put ;c:\j2sdk1.4.0\bin at the end of the Path (or c:\j2sdk1.4.0\bin;) at the start of the Path. That's it.

Help setting the movement to pixel by pixel

Good day fellow designers. I'm having a "not so good" situation. I hope you can help me guys. It's all about moving an selected object pixel by pixel.
I have this object selected on photoshop. And I want to move it pixel by pixel. So what I did is I selected it then press the arrow keys. In photoshop,
usually, this will make the object move pixel by pixel. But in my illustrator however, it's kinda different. It moves at least 3 pixel by 3 pixel. It's not
accurate. I already tried playing with illustrator's preferences but still no good. I know it's just around there somewhere.
Maybe someone can help me with this? Thanks and have a good day ahead! Cheers!

Hmm, I already got that tweaked... But it still skips a few pixels when I move it. A solution that I currently have right now is move it via mouse. It gets
the job done but the movement via arrow keys helps a lot specially when my workspace is starting to get laggy.
EDIT :
I already got it figure out. And yup, it's the keyboard increment. I got used to 1px that I've forgotten that I can also input much lower than 1px. I tried
0.25px and it worked! : )
Thanks mate. Cheers! : )

How do I set the font in firefox 4.0 using ubuntu?

The zoom feature is OK but I want to permanently set the font size on my firefox pages using the Ubuntu operating system. I don't see anything under Tools and there doesn't seem to be a lot of questions previously asked in the Help area about Firefox in Ubuntu.

It's difficult to set a single font size without wrecking the display of most web sites. One alternative would be to store your preferred zoom level and apply that to all sites. This requires an add-on such as:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6965/ Default FullZoom Level]
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]
Does that work for you?
