Trigger Button Click

I need a way to programmatically click one of the interface buttons, if at all possible.
I've tried calling the method directly linked to the button, but for some reason it doesn't work.
I've tested several different scenarios, but it never works as expected.
So, I figured the easiest, most effective way would be to activate a button as if a user had clicked it.
Is there any way to do this?
My button is of course an IADMItem and I've tried stuff like SendNotify(), but it just doesn't work as expected.
Seems like there's something really simple that I've been overlooking.
EDIT:
I must apologize in advance for such a newbie question.
I'm actually a server admin/web developer who inherited a complex C++ project, so I'm still in the middle of figuring half of this stuff out.

I can't think of why calling the method linked with the button wouldn't cause it to work. Can you explain a little more about what the context is -- specifically when do you call the method and what does the method attempt to do? Does the method get called, and just not do anything?

  • Trigger button click programatically after a specified time

    I'm trying to make an application that doesn't require the user to make a click on a button, in order for the action to occur. I need this action to occur every 500 ms, but the thing is I don't know how to do this programatically, since I'm new to labview. what I want to do is take a picture from my web cam every 500 ms, and in another windows, I want to capture the entire video. So I would have a live video stream on one side and a picture from that live stream on the other side. any examples will be greatly appreciated. 
    Thanks!

    Hi nando1988,
    -First you need to understand how to capture video and images from webcam.
    -Please check examples bundled along with labview for grab(Continuous capture) and snap.
    -For examples>>Help>>Find Examples>>Search for grab and snap.
    -Check this for an example i added. In that vi, whenever you click button, at that instance the captured image will be saved.
    http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Capture-image-from-video-live-streaming/m-p/2663925#M793602
    -In your case it will be every 500ms it needs to capture image. Using proper timing vis change the value of boolean control to get it done.

  • Trigger email in a button click?

    Hi,
    Is it possible to trigger an email in a button click rather than triggering it in a task? What I knew is that an email is coupled with a task (Approval / Review / Plan). If we can trigger an email using a button (show as a button instead of a field) in a form it would be useful. I am so curious to know about this.
    Note: I am using version 9.3.2 patch 6 on 2008 R2

  • Control two functions on one button click

    Hello,
    first off, I am relatively new to actionscript 3.0. I was
    wondering if anyone knows how I can control two events on one (the
    same) button click. On click, the first function must jump the user
    to a particular frame label and at the same time trigger a second
    function which is a movie clip on that particular frame. I must
    note that the event listener is attached to an actual Button and
    not a movie clip.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the quick response. I tried out your solution but
    I get the following error...
    TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of
    a null object reference.
    at index_fla::MainTimeline/rev()
    at index_fla::MainTimeline/resources()
    I also tried to create another event listener on Mouse_UP
    ex:
    topNav1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, resources);
    topNav1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, rev);
    but I get another strange error...

  • Prevent timeline to play again if trigger is clicked a second time

    Hi. how do I prevent the timeline of a symbol from restarting when the trigger button is clicked a second time and the timeline has already run. I have a line that grows when I click the button and I want it to stay like. When I click the button again the line jumps to its original size.
    thank you

    add a variable on the timeline of the symbol.
    var a=0;
    then in your click event in compositionReady use:
    sym.$('buttonName').bind('click',funciton(){
    if(A==0){
         sym.getSymbol('name').play();
    A=1;
    }else{
         sym.getSymbol('name').stop();
    or you could unbind your click event
    sym.$('buttonName').bind('click',funciton(){
         sym.$('buttonName').unbind('click');
         sym.getSymbol('name').play();

  • Option button click on IE is not working

    I am trying to play around with Excel VBA code to select an option button on a webpage. For some reason the option button is not getting selected even though there is no errors when executing the code. Please share your thoughts.
    Excel VBA code block given below.
    Sub Voting()
    Dim MyHTML_Element As IHTMLElement
    Dim MyURL As String
    Dim x As Object
    MyURL = "https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/?sm=%2bZAmxFYpsYG1R61ELcYA6g%3d%3d"
    Set MyBrowser = New InternetExplorer
    With MyBrowser
    .Silent = True
    .navigate MyURL
    .Visible = True
    Do
    Loop Until .readyState = READYSTATE_COMPLETE
    Do Until Not x Is Nothing
    Set x = .document.getElementById("ID of one of the option button")
    Loop
    Set x = Nothing
    .document.getElementById("ID of one of the option button").Click
    Set HTMLDoc = .document
    For Each MyHTML_Element In HTMLDoc.getElementsByTagName("button")

    Next
    Set HTMLDoc = Nothing
    End With
    MyBrowser.Quit
    Set MyBrowser = Nothing
    End Sub

    You must not be hitting the button.  Please see this example.

  • How to capture Button Click in OAF

    Hi All,
    I have created a button "TestButton" using personalization. On the click of this button, a new page "TestPG" opens. But i have to pass a few parameters from the old page to the new page. How do i capture this button click event in the CO so that i can use the pageContext.forwardImmediately method to pass the parameters?
    Also, what is the difference between a Button and a SubmitButton?
    Regards,
    Shreyas

    I never tried this... But can suggest you something.....
    Create a Upload type of item in your region, which will allow you to browse your Image file.
    Attach a VO attribute which will be based on EO. VO attibute will be based on Databse column of BLOB type, which will store the image in DB.
    If you want to transfer this file to application server's any directory, you can do that also.
    But above is solution to your problem..

  • Open Dialog box on button click using Visual Webpart

    Hi,
    I am trying to create New Item,Edit Item & Delete Item button in Visual web part.On clicking on the button it should open the corresponding custom form on dialogue box.I don't want to create any button in the ribbon.I just want to create UI page for
    all buttons and also corresponding input forms on button click in Visual web part.
    Is it possible through visual web part?
    I will be needing your initial guidance to achieve this.
    Please help.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you want to open modal dialog in a visual web part.
    To open a modal dialog, there are multiple ways, such as using JavaScript.
    However, for your scenario, you should register the script from the C# code, there are some articles for this topic, you can refer to them.

  • Creating a pop up window on button click?

    Hi
    How would I create a pop up modal window when a user clicks on a print button within an interactive report. This window would then display a message with a confirm or cancel button. If they click on confirm the page prints out and if they click cancel it takes the user back to the report
    Is this possible? if so how is this achieved?
    Many Thanks

    The confirm dialog is a native dialog in the browser. It will display a message and it has an ok and cancel button. Running it in javascript will prompt the user with the dialog, and the return value will be true or false depending on the button clicked.
    You don't need any extra page whatsoever.
    var r=confirm("Press a button");
    if (r==true)
    x="You pressed OK!";
    else
    x="You pressed Cancel!";
    }This would prompt you with a small dialog, asking "Press a button.". Clicking Ok or Cancel will return true or false to variable r, which in this code is then tested.
    You could shorten it up to
    if(confirm("Do you want to print?")){
       //execute print code
    };Alternatively, if you are on version 4.0 or higher you can use a dynamic action for this. Set the action to fire on the click of a button, and as a true action you can choose the confirm action, which then lets you display a text.

  • Open a report from button click/javascript

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if there is a way to call a report from a button click? Or through javascript? I set the report to Display Results > Link - within the dashboard and then did a view source on it and found the function that calls the report from the hyperlink.
    This is the code:
    return DashboardReportLink('saw.dll?PortalGo&_scid=v-x8QJloqTY&PortalPath=/shared/Plan\x2520Setup\x2520Audit\x2520Tool\x2520/_portal/Plan\x2520Setup\x2520Audit&Page=Historical&NavFromViewID=d\x253adashboard\x257ep\x253acp4tq3p9brn77o6o\x257er\x253a8a2g9nltmkrtra9n&Path=/shared/Plan\x2520Setup\x2520Audit\x2520Tool\x2520/Archive\x2520Reporting/Run\x2520Historical\x2520Report&Action=PromptStart&Options=frdc', 'd:dashboard~p:cp4tq3p9brn77o6o~r:8a2g9nltmkrtra9n','Dashboard&PortalPath=/shared/Plan\x2520Setup\x2520Audit\x2520Tool\x2520/_portal/Plan\x2520Setup\x2520Audit&Page=Historical', false)
    I added this function to the end of my javascript but when i click the button it just opens a blank page with
    http://la820119:9704/analytics/saw.dll?PortalGo
    as the url.
    Any help would be appreciated

    Hi,
    So i have been trying out a few things and the following url works to open the default view of the request:
    window.location='saw.dll?Go&Path=/shared/Plan Setup Audit Tool /Archive Reporting/Run Historical Report&Options=dfr';
    I just replaced 'Dashboard' in the code provided with the 'Go' and it started to work :)
    What i need to do though is have this work for the session variables set up on the dashboard. I have 7 prompts which a user can use to filter a request. Each is assigned to a session variable that is used to call a stored procedure. Originally i thought that by setting the variables and then calling the report from the url that the session variable values i set would be used in the request. What seems to be happening is that the variables get set and then, on calling the url, they are reset to the defaults and the report is run.
    Any help in solving this would be very much appreciated
