I have an issue with the following value field:
value="{normalize-space(/Properties/Data/Result/header_data/login_form/persisted_username)}"
Works perfectly well but the username that is pulls from a cookie value sometimes returns %40 instead of # I believe this is because of the way the data is sanitised in the cookie.
Is there a way of decoding that so that the value will correctly show # instead of %40.
This is in an xslt file. So preferably something xslt based. I have tried decode(/Properties/Data/Result/header_data/login_form/persisted_username) but this broke the page.
Thanks in advance

As the title suggest.
I have searched Google and stackoverflow, so far I don't find any tutorial that doesn't involve (https://github.com/ImperialCollegeLondon/django-drf-filepond).
While this library seems maintain, at 68 stars, too much risk and I prefer to do without it.
What I tried
When you use filepond input tag with class file-uploader file-uploader-grid, in browser, it will compile and generate a div tag.
The issue is that the id in input will be generated under the div instead of input tag.
Without that id, when the form is submitted, self.request.FILES will be empty dictionary.
So I tried writing a JavaScript to add id to input tag, which don't work unfortunately.
Anyone successfully do it in Django without additional library? Thanks
The input generated is only there to catch files, the actual data is either stored in hidden input fields (if you use server property) or encoded in those fields (if you use file encode plugin).
You can set storeAsFile to true to have FilePond update the fileList property of a file field. But that doesn't work on older versions of iOS, see link in property description:

I am trying to develop a multistep webform in Drupal 8 using Webform 8.x-5.1. I have written a WebformHandler that extends Drupal\webform\Plugin\WebformHandlerBase and made it available to the webform.
In the first step of the webform, I collect a text-field. I would like to display the value of that text-field in an HTML element (Advanced HTML/Text or Basic HTML) on the second page after doing some computation.
I have overwritten submitForm() in the WebformHandler and in it assign the value I want to the HTML element as follows:
$form['elements']['page_name']
['advanced_html_element']['#text'] = '...my HTML...';
Using ksm() I can see that this assignment works, but the the HTML element is not rendered with my HTML: the element is either invisible or contains the initial value set up in the form editor.
Clearly I'm missing something. Should I be using something other than submitForm? Can anyone help me?
It's been a long haul, but I've finally worked out how to do what I want to. The following works for me.
Firstly, I discovered the method validateForm in WebformHandlerBase. On each page in a form with multiple pages, you will find that the following methods are called in the order given here:
submitForm (called once)
alterForm(called possibly more than once)
validateForm (called once)
The name validateForm leads me to believe I may be misusing this method, but that is where I set up the elements on the following page that I wish to programmatically initialise. It works, so what the hey!
In validateForm, I initialise the elements that appear on the following page as follows:
$form_state->setValue(<element name>, <data structure>);
The <element name> is the name you give the element in the form editor ("Build" tab). The <data structure> has to be correct, of course: I suggest you find the appropriate structure by first filling in the element on the next page manually and seeing what turns up in $form_state.
There is also a $form_state->getValue(<element name>), which seems to me to mean that $form_state can also be used for storing session data, say in hidden fields. I initially used Drupal::service('tempstore.private')->get('xxx') for storing data that had to be available across page boundaries, but $form_state might be a cleaner solution.
I hope this helps someone: I spent a horribly long time trying to get this to work.
I am trying to test a webservice's performance, and having a few issues with using and passing variables. There are multiple sequential requests, which depend on some data coming from a previous response. All requests need to be encoded to base64 and placed in a SOAP envelope namespace before sending it to the endpoint. It returns and encoded response which needs to be decoded to see the xml values which need to be used for the next request. What I have done so far is:
1) Beanshell preprocessor added to first sample to encode the payload which is called from a file.
2) Regex to pull the encoded response bit from whole response.
3) Beanshell post processor to decode the response and write to a file (just in case). I have stored the decoded response in a variable 'Output' and I know this works since it writes the response to file correctly.
4) After this, I have added 4 regex extractors and tried various things such as apply to different parts, check different fields, check JMeter variable etc. However, it doesn't seem to work.
This is what my tree is looking like.
JMeter Tree
I am storing the decoded response to 'Output' variable like this and it works since it's writing to file properly:
import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils;
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64;
String Createresponse= vars.get("Createregex");
vars.put("response",new String(Base64.decodeBase64(Createresponse.getBytes("UTF-8"))));
Output = vars.get("response");
f = new FileOutputStream("filepath/Createresponse.txt");
p = new PrintStream(f);
this.interpreter.setOut(p);
print(Output);
f.close();
And this is how I using Regex after that, I have tried different options:
Regex settings
Unfortunately though, the regex is not picking up these values from 'Output' variable. I basically need them saved so i can use ${docID} in the payload file for next request.
Any help on this is appreciated! Also happy to provide more detail if needed.
EDIT:
I had a follow up question. I am trying to run this with multiple users. I have a field ${searchuser} in my payload xml file called in the pre-processor here.
The CSV Data set above it looks like this:
However, it is not picking up the values from CSV and substituting in the payload file. Any help is appreciated!
You have 2 problems with your Regular Expression Extractor configuration:
Apply to: needs to be response
Field to check: needs to be Body, Body as a Document is being used for binary file formants like PDF or Word.
By the way, you can do Base64 decoding and encoding using __base64Decode() and __base64Encode() functions available via JMeter Plugins. The plugins in their turn can be installed in one click using Plugin Manager
I create a django application with existing MySQL database, the problem is the encoding to database is latin1_general_c and the utf8 characters is save like this ñ => ñ , ó => ó, i need present the information in that page in correctly form but django show the information of database like this
recepción, 4 oficinas, 2 baños
i need show like this
recepcíon, 4 oficinas, 2 baños
For many reasons I can't change the database to utf8
what do I do for show information the correctly way?
Django seems to explicitly require that your database use UTF-8:
Django assumes that all databases use UTF-8 encoding. Using other encodings may result in unexpected behavior.
That said, it should be possible to use the custom OPTIONS setting to pass the desired character set to the database driver. See this answer, in which setting charset solved the problem. But you should check the documentation for the specific MySQL driver and database that you're using, since these options are not used by Django itself.
As suggested by the quote above, even if this works to correctly translate strings between the database and unicode, parts of Django still won't work correctly. For example, to correctly validate the length of a CharField Django has to know the encoding, and it will always assume UTF-8.
I'm using lib-cURL as a HTTP client to retrieve various pages (can be any URL for that matter).
Usually the data comes as a UTF-8 string and then I just call "MultiByteToWideChar" and it works well.
However, some web-pages still use code-page encoding and I see gibberish if i try to convert those pages to UTF-8.
Is there an easy way to retrieve the code page from the data? or I'll have to scan it manually (for "encoding=") and then translate it accordingly.
If so, how do i get the code-page id from name (Code Page Identifiers)?
Thanks,
Omer
There are several location where a document can state its encoding:
the Content-Type HTTP header
the (optional) XML declaration
the Content-Type meta tag inside the document header
for HTML5 documents the charset meta tag.
There are probably even more I've forgotten.
In the end, detecting the actual encoding is rather hard. You really shouldn't do this yourself but use high-level libraries for retrieving and parsing HTML content. I'm sure they are available even for C++, even if they have to be thiefed from the a browser environment. :)
I used DetectInputCodepage in IMultiLanguage2 interface and it worked great !
