https://overflow.efficy.io/?qa=tag/select Powered by Question2Answer https://overflow.efficy.io/?qa=6741/how-to-activate-ajax-call-on-select2-attached-select-element <p>Dear all,</p> <p>I am trying to build a <code>&lt;select&gt;</code> with the "select2" component in order to search data from a Macro in a asynchronous mode because I am searching data to another entity. </p> <p>I now that in standard I can use the definition <code>LOOKUPDROPDOWNSEARCH</code> but by doing so I forced to overwrite the <code>pages/dropdown/ListSearch.htm</code> in order to pass the Macro I needed to load the data + I need to override the <code>editDetailCmd.js</code> to pass this macro to the page. which is very not convenient.</p> <p>I wanted at first use the <code>"data-ajax-url"</code> attribut, but it seems we are not allowed to do so on HTML <code>&lt;select&gt;</code> tag, at least with the select2 library version we have in Efficy Entreprise which is version 3.5.2. </p> <p>If we try to use it we got the following error : </p> <pre><code>select2.js?ist=20221004215237&amp;c=202210311518:947 Uncaught Error: Option 'ajax' is not allowed for Select2 when attached to a &lt;select&gt; element. </code></pre> <p>And I don't want to use an HTML <code>&lt;input&gt;</code> tag like it is used in standard for PostCode/City field since the value that I will store will be a key not a text.</p> Efficy/ Client side https://overflow.efficy.io/?qa=6741/how-to-activate-ajax-call-on-select2-attached-select-element Mon, 31 Oct 2022 16:36:19 +0000 https://overflow.efficy.io/?qa=4310/automatically-select-the-tab-of-an-activated-category <p>When you activate a category, more than 9 times out of 10, you want to enter data for this category and you expect that Efficy will automatically select the corresponding tab for you.<br> But Efficy doesn't. Do developpers really use the app? ;-)</p> <p>Since project team cares for their customers, here is a very simple code to implement this behavior.</p> <p>In the <code>pages\dialog\Category.htm</code> file, call this function via <code>&lt;body onload="storeInitialCategoriesByEditHandle()"&gt;</code>:</p> <pre><code>function storeInitialCategoriesByEditHandle() { var elems = document.forms[0].elements, editHandle = &lt; % GetEditHandle() % &gt; , categoriesKeys = []; for (var i = 0, len = elems.length; i &lt; len; i++) { var e = elems[i]; if (e.type === 'checkbox' &amp;&amp; e.checked) categoriesKeys.push(e.value); } if (opener.opener.initialCategoriesIndexedByEditHandle === undefined) opener.opener.initialCategoriesIndexedByEditHandle = []; opener.opener.initialCategoriesIndexedByEditHandle[editHandle] = categoriesKeys; } </code></pre> <p>From the start of the <code>js/main/edit.js</code> call this function:</p> <pre><code>function checkNewCategory() { if (opener.initialCategoriesIndexedByEditHandle === undefined) return; var initialCategories = opener.initialCategoriesIndexedByEditHandle[Model("editHandle")]; if (initialCategories === undefined) return; var $catgTabs = $("a[href^=#catg-]"); for (var i = 0, length = $catgTabs.length; i &lt; length; i++) { var catgTab = $catgTabs[i], hash = catgTab.hash, tableId = hash.substring("#catg-".length); if (parseInt(tableId) % 1000 === 0) // Ignore "Fields" pseudo category continue; if (initialCategories.indexOf(tableId) === -1) { $(catgTab).trigger("click"); } } opener.initialCategories[Model("editHandle")] = undefined; } </code></pre> <p>Any comment is welcome.
