Actually I am trying to create two controls one is drop down and another is List. Both are similar and easy for static values or values which are already stored somewhere.
But what I want is, I want the Power user to create or add / edit list items at the run time ( When he is inserting function to the page )
so similar concept to this : http://jsfiddle.net/DVbGY/1/
<div data-role="content">
<div id="items">
</div>
<input type="text" id="item" />
<input type="button" value="Add item to list" onclick="appendToList()"/>
<script>
var listCreated = false;
function appendToList(){
if(!listCreated){
$("#items").append("<ul id='list' data-role='listview' data-inset='true'></ul>");
listCreated = true;
$("#items").trigger("create");
}
var value = $("#item").val();
var listItem = "<li>" + value + "</li>";
$("#list").append(listItem);
}
</script>
but in the function property window.
Currently I am using comma separated list from user but its not viable solution as my next step is to add url as well with the input data from user so Lets say user wants to create a drop-down button and user is adding items and associating particular link to its items.
As you can see in above image i am getting data from user but instead of that text box i want to use above mentioned similar concept.
How can I make this possible ? or Is it possible in C1-CMS ? if yes please explain with Example in detail.
Thank you for your time and thanks reading this post.
It is not possible with the currently built in widgets.

Am I able to load a custom template based on a condition?
eg..
If I was making a booking for a mechanic then the editor form would show textboxes for carmodel, yearmake etc.
If I was making a booking for a carpet cleaner the editor form would show textboxes for howmanyrooms, room sizes etc..
Am I able to pass an ID of a service and show the particular editor form for the correct service?
we can currently display this functionality if we create different scheduler Views but that would then create a duplication of many pages.
I had the exact same problem and after searching a long time and combining what I found, I came to this :
1) above my scheduler I have a kendodropdownlist
<input id="reservationPicker" />
<script>
$("#reservationPicker").kendoDropDownList({
dataTextField: "name",
dataValueField: "reservationDefTypeId",
dataSource: reservationPickerDataSource
});
</script>
2) my event has an extra field reservationDef which will hold the information of the dropdownlist.
3) I can use this information in my template
<script id="editorScheduler" type="text/x-kendo-template">
<center>
<div id="main">
#if(reservationDef=="mechanic"){#
<h3>Mechanic stuff</h3>
#}else if(reservationDef=="carpetCleaner"){#
<h3>Carpet Cleaner stuff</h3>
#}else{#
<h3>unknown type of reservation !</h3>
#: reservationDef #
#}#
</div>
</center>
</script>
4) I use this template in my scheduler
editable: {
template: $("#editorScheduler").html()
},
5) but what with a new appointment ! I use the add event of the scheduler and I fill in this information in the event
add: function (e) {
var reservationTypes = $("#reservationPicker").data("kendoDropDownList");
var selectedReservationType = reservationTypes.dataItem();
e.event.reservationDef = selectedReservationType.appointmentTitle;
},
This does the trick for me. Good luck !
No I didn't but I did find a work around by dynamically adding textboxes on the following page. To b able to choose a view model at runtime for the scheduler didn't seem possible
if anyone knows how to load a particular viewmodel at runtime using mvc would be very intresting for future ideas and development.
I have an app made in WinJS for Windows 8 App store, and I use the Split Page template. So on the split page I have two colums the one named List column and the one named Item detail column. It is for recipes, and in the list are the pictures and small details, and in the right in the item detail block is the recipe with details and pictures. I want a Print button that will print only the right column with details, not the entire windows with list and etc.
Can someone give me an example better than the one from msdn?
As taken from codeshow.codeplex.com to print a fragment:
function printFrag(printEvent) {
var printTask = printEvent.request.createPrintTask("codeSHOW Print Frag", function (args) {
var frag = document.createDocumentFragment();
frag.appendChild(q(".print #printFromApp").cloneNode(true));
args.setSource(MSApp.getHtmlPrintDocumentSource(frag));
// Register the handler for print task completion event
printTask.oncompleted = printTaskCompleted;
});
}
Which is in turn cloning this html node and then printing it
<div id="printFromApp">
<h2>Invoke print</h2>
<p>Wow, printing is fun.</p>
<button id="invokePrint">Print</button>
</div>
All the print samples can be mostly cut and pasted from there, check it out. It's also available in the Windows Store and is an essential HTML/JS dev tool for Windows Store apps.
Im am using Play 2.0.4 and
helper.options(myitems)
in my template (inside of a helper.select)
In this case, how can I define the default selected entry, which shall be one entry out of myitems? Thanks for any hint!
A little bit more about my case:
Imagine a news archive, showing all news titles. This news archive uses pagination, pagination uses GET to pass the next/previous page number.
The play framework however will only correctly select the currently selected "select" item (here: news category) when a POST request was used - while pagination uses GET!
Intended behaviour: While a filter is applied / a specific news category is selected, this shall always be visible to the user by preselecting the currently selected news category in the "select" form.
A "screenshot" for illustration:
So, anyone having a good idea on how to cope with this problem? Any way to tell Play manually which entry from the "select" form it shall select? '_default always adds a new entry instead of selecting one out of the given options ): Would be great, if one wouldn't have to build the complete "select" form manually.
Try passing '_default option to select helper:
#import views.html.helper._
#select(form("email"), options(List("first", "third")), '_default -> "second")
It seems, unfortunately, the only way to figure it out is to look up the source.
Update:
Specifying _default property doesn't set selected attribute on option tag. It looks like the only way to preselect entry is to pass prefilled form to the template. For example, suppose you have following form:
case class RegInfo(email: String, color: String)
private val registrationForm = Form(
mapping(
"email" → email,
"color" → nonEmptyText(minLength = 5, maxLength = 32)
)(RegInfo.apply)(RegInfo.unapply)
)
Then in the action prefill form before passing to the view:
def create = Action {
Ok(html.create(registrationForm.fill(RegInfo("user#qwe.com", "blue"))))
}
Then in template use helper:
#select(form("color"), options(List("red", "green", "blue")))
And value will be preselected.
Ended up with the pragmatic approach:
<select id="myfield" name="myfield" >
<option class="blank" value="">-- All items --</option>
#for((key, value) <- MyModel.options) {
#if(key == GETValuePassedToTemplate) {
<option value="#key" selected>#value</option>
} else {
<option value="#key">#value</option>
}
}
</select>
Still wondering if there is a better option / way to do it.
Actually, there is a nicer solution to it. If you call the template having the form partially bound you will achieve your goal. Here's the code for your controller:
Ok(views.html.myForm(myForm.bind(
Map("fieldName1" -> "value1",
"fieldName2" -> "value2"))))
Make sure you map fieldnames to the values of the options you want pre-selected.
Still wondering if there is a better option / way to do it.
Well, if your not hell-bent on using play to solve this particular problem, you could always solve it using JavaScript and jQuery:
$(function () {
$('#yourSelect_id').val(5);
}
Where your select options each has values and the one option you whish to pre select has value 5.
I have recently started working on an umbraco 5 project and am finding it a bit of a struggle compared with umbraco 4. What I am trying to do is have a list of items that are managed in the content section of the site where users can add items to a list, this list is then used in drop downs and page categories throughout the site.
I am looking for the best way to do this, I am currently part way through creating a property editor that manages a list of text boxes but not sure if this is the best way of doing it, and Im currently not entirely sure of how to go about doing even this. I can save one property no problem, but a dynamic list?
Can anybody give me some idea of how they would go about doing this with some code examples, theres not a huge amount of resources for 5 out there at the minute.
Many thanks to those who contribute.
UPDATE
I have now copied the multiple textstring property editor from the source code and am looking to update it to have an extra text input. Its using the knockout javascript library of which Im not too familar with, below is the code I have so far, does anyone know how I would update this to save both text values to the database?
<ul class="relatedlinks-textstring-inputs" data-bind="template: { name: 'textstringRow', foreach: textstrings }"></ul>
<script id="textstringRow" type="text/html">
<li style='width: 250px;'>Name<input type="text" data-bind="value: value" />Url<input type="text" data-bind="value: value" /></li>
</script>
#Html.HiddenFor(x => Model.Value, new Dictionary<string, object> { { "data-bind", "value: value" } })
Here is the scenario... I have a a checkbox next to each field that I am replacing on page load with jquery with "Delete" text that enables me to delete the field via jquery, which is working fine. Like so...
$(".profile-status-box").each(function(){ $(this).replaceWith('<span class="delete">' + 'Delete' + '</span>') });
The problem comes in however is that after page load, I am also giving the user the option to dynamically add new fields. The new added fields though have the checkbox and not the delete link because they are not being replaced by jquery since they are being added after the initial page load.
Is't possible to replace the content of new elements added to the page without doing a page refresh? If not, I can always have two templates with different markup depending one for js and one for non js, but I was trying to avoind taht.
Thanks in advance.
You can use the .livequery() plugin, like this:
$(".profile-status-box").livequery(function(){
$(this).replaceWith('<span class="delete">Delete</span>')
});
The anonymous function is run against every element found, and each new element matching the selector as they're added.
Have a look at this kool demo. It removes and adds elements like a charm.
http://www.dustindiaz.com/basement/addRemoveChild.html
Here's how:
First of all, the (x)html is real simple.
xHTML Snippet
<input type="hidden" value="0" id="theValue" />
<p>Add Some Elements</p>
<div id="myDiv"> </div>
The hidden input element simply gives you a chance to dynamically call a number you could start with. This, for instance could be set with PHP or ASP. The onclick event handler is used to call the function. Lastly, the div element is set and ready to receive some children appended unto itself (gosh that sounds wierd).
Mkay, so far so easy. Now the JS functions.
addElement JavaScript Function
function addElement() {
var ni = document.getElementById('myDiv');
var numi = document.getElementById('theValue');
var num = (document.getElementById('theValue').value -1)+ 2;
numi.value = num;
var newdiv = document.createElement('div');
var divIdName = 'my'+num+'Div';
newdiv.setAttribute('id',divIdName);
newdiv.innerHTML = 'Element Number '+num+' has been added! <a href=\'#\' onclick=\'removeElement('+divIdName+')\'>Remove the div "'+divIdName+'"</a>';
ni.appendChild(newdiv);
}
And if you want to,
removeElement JavaScript Function
function removeElement(divNum) {
var d = document.getElementById('myDiv');
var olddiv = document.getElementById(divNum);
d.removeChild(olddiv);
}
and thats that. bobs your uncle.

I've just learnt this myself. thank you for the question
Hope that helps.
