What is the best way to call a pageflow action from JavaScript?
Thanks,
John

Answer 1

John,
How would I do this from a grid??? Unfortunately there are no JavaScript attributes
on any of the grid tags that I can see.
Thanks,
John

John,
If you want to put up a confirm dialog before calling an action from
an
anchor it is done as follows.
Here is an example from code of mine that deletes a customer order,if
the
user confirms the delete. I pass the order id as a parameter.
- john
Here is the JavaScript -
function confirmDelete() {
if(confirm('Continue with order delete?'))
return true;
else
return false;
Here is a sample anchor tag -
<netui:anchor action="requestToDeleteOrder" onClick="return
confirmDelete(); return false;">
Delete
<netui:parameter name="orderId" value="{container.item.orderId}"/>
</netui:anchor>

Thanks for the replies. I figured it was going to require buildingmy own
url
to call the action. I had hoped there was an easier way to do it.Rich,
the
reason I want to do this is because I want to call the JavaScript
function
confirm()
when a user clicks on a link (in a repeater/grid) to drop a record,I only
want
to call the drop action if the user confirms the drop. Maybe thereis a
better
way to do what I am trying to do??? I really appreciate any help
you
guys
can
give me on this, I am pretty new to this sort of stuff.
Thanks,
John

Thanks,
JohnTry figuring out the URL to the pageflow action, create a hidden
form
in the
page, then use JS to submit the form. Why would you want to though,
isn't
the server going to want to send you to the next page?
