Working with Spry Data Elements

As I understand it, I have to format elements such as dates,
currency, etc. myself. Can someone can tell me how to manipulate
the data elements in Spry (JS/DOM/?). I don't (necessarily) need
date and currency examples, just something simple to get me
started.
For instance, I would like to alter the way {currency} and
{date} appear below:
<tr spry:repeat="dsList">
<td>{currency}</td>
<td>{date}</td>
</tr>
Currently, this is pretty ugly...
<tr spry:repeat="dsList">
<td>2006-10-02 10:18:35.983</td>
<td>16500000.0000</td>
</tr>
Any JS example will help me... for instance, the code adding
one (+1) to the currency value would get me through this;)
Not vital to this question, but this is a cfquery that's
using Raymond Camden's toXML component (which rocks) to convert my
queries to XML variables for Spry.
many thanks...

Nevermind... I figured it out.
I simply added the following code in between the query object
and the conversion to xml:
<cfif len(myQuery.date)>
<cfoutput query="myQuery">
<cfset query.date=DateFormat(query.date,"mm/dd/yyyy")/>
</cfoutput>
</cfif>

Maybe it'll help someone else ;)

  • Tabbed Panels: Opening panel with panel number doesn't work with Spry Data

    I have some data inside a TabbedPanelsContent div, and would
    like to be able to open tabs using links, but it only seems to work
    with static content.
    Clicking on tabs themselves loads content correctly, whereas
    clicking on links does nothing. I tried both - panel number and
    panel ID - neither worked. What gives?
    See code below.
    <div spry:region="ds1">
    <div class="TabbedPanels" id="tp1">
    <ul class="TabbedPanelsTabGroup">

  • Working with spry data sets

    Hi,
    I have page that uses a spry data set called 'dsSupport',
    however i do not want to use a table to select the item in the list
    i am instead using a spry select box:
    <div spry:region="dsSupport">
    <h1>Step1: Select your product:</h1>
    <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">
    <p><strong>Choose from a
    list:</strong><br />
    <span id="spryselect1">
    <label>
    <select name="prodlist" id="prodlist">
    <option spry:repeat="dsSupport" spry:setrow="dsSupport"
    value="{model}">{name}</option>
    </select>
    </label>
    <span class="selectRequiredMsg">Please select an
    item.</span>
    </span>
    </p>
    </form>
    </div>
    This is connected to a spry detail region so i can pull up
    more details from the data set, but when i change the option in the
    select box nothing happens. Is this possible? If so can anyone
    help!
    If i drop a spry table in to the div tag as well i can select
    the items in there and the detail region does change so i know its
    linked ok and all the table items are showing in the select box, i
    just cannot get it to change when i select something different in
    the select box!

    fixed it using:
    <select spry:repeatchildren="dsSupport"
    spry:choose="choose" name="prodlist"
    onChange="dsSupport.setCurrentRow(this.selectedIndex);">
    <option spry:when="{ds_RowNumber} ==
    {ds_CurrentRowNumber}" selected="selected">{name}</option>
    <option spry:default="default">{name}</option>
    </select>

  • Accordion with spry data on IE8

    Hi,
    I have an accordion with spry data and everything works fine on IE8 and FF, but on IE8 when i click on a accordion tab it doesnt focus on that open panel. It takes me at the very top of where my accordion begins. I notice the same thing happens to the accordion with spry data site. It's a problem for me because my page has a long accordion and our users have small laptop screens. Does anyone know how this can be fixed in IE8?
    Sorry i dont have a sample link or code, because it's on our company intranet. but i used the exact same method on the spry accordion with data page.

    Good. I am sure you can figure it out.

    It would be helpfull if you actually created an <img> tag to start with

    would work.

  • My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data.

    My iPad Mini with retina display suddenly will not connect to the Internet. It shows full wifi bars, yet no web pages will load. My Internet is working with all other apple devices in my house. The iPad also no longer works with celluar data. I'm not sure what has happened. It was working fine a few hours ago. I have tried resetting it, ive restarted my browser etc. I tried to erase all data from my Ipad but I can't do that because it needs to sign into my Apple ID and use the Internet!

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

    I have been trying to find a legit non scam/virus site with pre keyed effects like explosions, gunshot fire, fire, and other effects like that.
    Most sites that I've tried are virus' or only work with imovie.

  • Problem in working with Japanese data

    Hello,
    We have an application, which should work for both English and Japanese languages. Our application is working fine for English data but in case of Japanese, we are facing problems. In the application, there is a language setting, where the user can select either English or Japanese. This changes the language of the labels to English or Japanese. We are handling this thru' ResourceBundles. But the data that is entered can be independent of this. In English setting also, the data entered or diplayed could be Japanese. Now we are facing problems at vaious places -
    1. When we enter Japanese data and save it, it gets copied into the bean and if there is any error in the saving, the same data from bean comes back on the screen. This data doesn't appear properly in Japanese.
    2. When we try to retrieve the already saved data from database, it doesn't show poperly in Japanese.
    We are using our own 'toUnicode' function, which converts the data to Unicode before saving the data to database. Similarly, we have tried different encodings like SJIS / Shift_JIS / ISO-2022-JP at various places i.e. in 'Page' directive or in HTML Meta tag or various combinations of these two. Nothing is working reliably. Sometimes for some combination, data retained in the first case is correct but it can't be saved. Sometimes it works with Unicode, sometimes without Unicode. Some combination affects the Japanese labels as well. Otherwise the labels at least are displayed properly.
    The same code with just Shift_JIS setting in 'page' directive, worked well in IIS Server for both English and Japanese.
    What could be the problem in WebLogic? Does it matter if WL is installed on English or Japanese machine?
    Kindly answer ASAP, since the project is getting delayed.
    Thanking in anticipation...

  • Help Required: Working with relational data

    Hi,
    I'm looking for some advice
    Scenario
    We have a customer who has an SE relational database with Apex for transaction processing. They require reporting functionality and are debating whether to buy BI SE One or BI EE; they will not buy the enteprise edition database though.
    Questions
    Here are my questions:
    1. In order to use answers and dashboards, does the relational data have to be in a dimensional format. Is this reccommended.
    2. We were debating on whether to create data marts for various business requirements. Is this standard procedure for relational data (Which is not too complex)
    3. If the data has to be in a dimensional format, is this best modelled using warehouse builder or the model layer of the repository using BI Administrator. (Baring in mind that the customer is an SME using a SE database)
    The main problem where having, been fairly new to warehouse building, is that we dont know what the best path is to take when working with relational data. Do we create dimensional models? What should we use? Is a relational structure suitable enough?
    Can anyone shed light on our problems
    Regards
    Kevin

    1. In order to use Answers and Dashboards you do not need to have a Data Warehouse. It can report out of both Transactional database as well as a data warehouse.
    2. It depends on what your business requirements are. BI EE/SE1 does not require you to have data marts. Data Marts would give performance gains, would help you in visualizing the transactional data from a business standpoint, is a big plus but not a mandate. If you want to go that route of creating Datamarts, you can easily do that using BI SE1 since that gives you warehouse builder which can be both used as a data modelling tool and a ETL tool.
    3. Warehouse Builder is a ETL tool. It helps in you visualizing/deploying data warehouses in databases. But BI EE Admin tool is more of a logical dimension modelling tool wherein the facts and dimensions do not exist physically but the tool uses them to do the querying/processing.
    Since you are just starting, what you can do is to use BI EE directly on top of the transactional system for the time being. But as a long term solution you can start working on your data marts and as soon as they are ready you can port the BI EE on top of them rather than the transactional system.
    Thanks,
    Venkat

  • Xcelsiues 2008, working with live data help!!!

    Ok, so i have flynet designer for web services. All this is working correctly. i have setup a test query just to check everything is working so i just pulled out some customer info name, account number etc. I generated the webservice succesfully and i can browse to the website and enter a parameter and it returns results. So i know this part is working ok.
    So now im in xcelsius 2008, i add a new web service connection and it connects fine, at this point you have to select the cells where you want the data to go in the little excel spreadsheet panel. but nothing ever appears!!!!??? i dont know what i am doing wrong. has anyone had experience working with live data?

    In terms of timescale. I have till April to do this.
    I said 2 months cos things always come up. So, in terms of your application have you already:
    collected user requirements?
    developed and tested an appropriate database structure (tables, datatypes, triggers, views, etc...)?
    done any mock-up of some sort of the application pages and business process flows?
    gotten approval of any of the above?
    If you have all of this yet to complete - and you're new to databases, new to Oracle and new to HTML DB, and have more than a very simple application (10-15 pages) you may still be in over your head with this project.
    I'm not trying to discourage you from using HTML DB at all. It's a great tool and you can do some very cool stuff with it. And it's reputation as an Access killer is well deserved. It's just that you may not want to take on a critical time-sensitive project as your first.
    Also to consider - are you going to have anyone else helping out with it? If so, what strengths/weaknesses does that person bring to the project? Is it going to help you move faster? Or slow you down - because you're training and developing at the same time?

  • Working with Cyrillic Data

    Hi, We have a requirement where I have to work with Cyrillic data i.e. Russian data. I have to parse data based on specific fields.  I tried using match function but looks like it is having problem dealing with Cyrillic Russian data.  When I try to find an english word in a string then it works finebut when I try to find an Cyrillic character i.e. ул. or г. then I match function would not find this expression in the CYrillic string.
    i.e. match_pattern('Арбат ул.','Арбат ул\.') gives me 0
    Any idea how I can use BODS on function on Cyrillic data.
    Thanks,

    Should have not used escape character for dot. placing just dot works finein decode.

    I came to know about OWB and OBIEE, but not sure what exactly these are ?

    In order to create and develop a webcenter portal application, you only need to install JDeveloper and download the WeBCenter extensions. That's true.
    But this install does not include the WebCenter services like dicussions, document services, analytics,... If you want to use these and integrate them in your portal, then you would need to install the suite as described on my blog.

  • A working YUI Calendar With Spry Data

    Hi,
    I've seen a number of posts about linking Spry data with the YUI calendar widget.
    Well I've done that here.  http://www.pwhitehurst.f2s.com/yui%20calendar.html. through a little perserverance and reading the Yahoo calendar API
    The calendar dates are highlighted based on the event dates in the SPRY data.  I haven't added any other functionality yet as  I'm just taking it one step at a time.  But this page should give others the base code for getting started.  The key is to declare a YAHOO namespace so you can reference the calendar in your spry region postload notifications or other spry functions etc.
    Any questions please reply and I'll see if I've worked it out.  I'm away over Easter but intend to add functionaility so that when you click a date on the calendar it filters the spry data via a non destructive filter etc. I also want the calendar to move to the right month as I click events.
    Cheers
    Phil

    Thanks,
    Unfortunatley my page hasn't gone live yet, so I can't show you what I mean, but I think I've found the problem.
    I've managed to config the YUI calendar to accept dates in DD/MM/YYYY format (using some of the localisation features described on the Yahoo developers pages: http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/examples/calendar/germany.html) so now my calendar will accept and properly shade any date passed to it in DD/MM/YYYY format (which is what my spry dataset is in) and it will also return any date selected from the calendar in DD/MM/YYYY format, as it should. So, all good on the calendar front...
    ...but spry is still operating in standard MM/DD/YYYY mode, so if I set my "start_date" and "end_date" columns as type = "date" (which I want to do for sorting purposes) it doesn't recognise any date after the 12th day of the month! (because it still thinks the DD segment is a MM segment and so has a maximum poss value of 12! doh!). So far I've got around this by defining both date columns as "strings", so the combining function you describe above (much appreciated btw :-)) passes the date string to the calendar exactly as entered, and because my calendar is set up to recognise this date string, theres no problem, and i can shade any date in the calendar (including the 13th to the 31st!)
    so the only problem i have now is being able to sort my dates. one solution seems to be to have 2 columns - one with the date in DD/MM/YYYY format which is used for display (as it is now) and another in american MM/DD/YYYY format which is used to sort, but this seems to me a bit of a waste of time, and theres always the possibility that one column will have an error in it, especially since I'm not used to working in the american format.
    sorry, a bit of a ramble there. I suppose my question is this: is there a simple step i'm missing where I can tell spry that my date columns are in a specific format? ie. dd/mm, not mm/dd?
    something like:
    var ds1 = new.Spry.Data.HTMLDataSet("myData.html", "table1", {sortOnLoad: "start_date", sortOrderOnLoad: "ascending"});
    ds1.setColumnType("start_date", "date", {format:dd/mm/yyyy});
    if not, there really should be!
    *any admins reading, mental note for the next release please...! :-)*
    I suppose i could give in and convert all my dates to the american system which would solve all the problems, but i never like being bullied by the Yanks!
