list - restrictive entry visibility and external xml file in the drop-down list

The question applies to the OPA 10.1, but if a solution requires a version more recent OPA (e.g., 12.1) we can update so please let me know what version your answer applies to.

I have a series of tabs of a spreadsheet Excel that map different categories on each other and I want to implement this OPA so that there are six screens with drop-down lists and visible elements two on-screen menu will depend on the selected item in the display 1. list to display 3 items will depend on the selected item in the screen 2, which depends on the item selected on the screen 1, etc..

For example,.

1 screen can be States:

Maryland

Virginia

New York City

Georgia

...

2 screen could then be counties: assuming that Virginia has been selected...

Accomack

Albemarle

Alleghany

...

3 screen could be cities: assuming that Accomack is selected...

Exmore

Parksley

...

Basically I have large spreadsheet list of lists with items (one list a 2040 pieces) and so I can't manually enter easily list items.  I would like to 'specify the name of the list' and have the OPA to use an xml list (easily created my spreadsheet), but the OPA Help menu says "NOTE: this implementation of the xml list does not support default values or visibility...» "So it seems that I won't be able to make invisible inapplicable list items.  So, to use the fictitious example above, if I chose the State of Maryland, I will not applicable to Virginia or any other State counties, but Maryland is visible; Yet, all counties in the country should be included in the list in the first place.

If someone knows a solution or another solution to this problem (other than creating custom functions) so please let me know.

"Out of the box' for 10.1 you can try the following:

Have simply a separate list for each of the sub-components. He can do even a little painful, but you have not at least custom functions or custom controls.

On the first screen you have the attribute collection the State using the list of States (provided via xml).

On the second screen you have the County collection attribute - but repeated 50 times - and then use visibility to show/hide the template you want (which then has the correct xml for the counties in the State).

On the third screen you have your attribute for the city (once again the same attribute for each list) but isn't there it gets a little mean to 50 times counties in the State.

In terms of writing that required visibility rules that you can probably leverage Excel to do much of the building of the rule for you to lists (remembering that the compiler takes that you as the user see in Excel, not the function that sees Excel)- so there is not a lot of extra work in the perspective of rules.

The sticking point will simply put all of these attributes and binds the attribute visibility for the right control (and right xml).

Proceed with caution (extreme!), but... If you're already Automation to create the XML lists from Excel, then you might want to automate the creation of xml screen. But be very careful. I've seen some projects that have used automatically generated screens and they did the job of the ok - but certainly a warning any time major health you do not use OPM to generate a component of OPM.

Then... it is possible to do it manually - but you probably want to get involved some automation.

  • Verification of the text field problem and requiring an option in the drop-down field

    I have a form with several fields that if the user enters information in one or more of the

    fields, I need to check that the drop-down list field is not empty.

    I got this to work, but now I find that if the user deletes the text in the text field, the user always receives the error message. Here is the script I use:

    If

    ((form1.page1.ListFilesFolders.rawValue) ! = null & & (form1.page1.windsNtwkAccess.rawValue) == null);

    {

    xfa.host.setFocus (form1.page1.windsNtwkAccess);

    xfa.host.messageBox ("Please make a selection in the field of Windows network."

    , 'Need to selection' , 1 , 0);

    }

    Thank you

    MDawn

    Makes sense... the field is null when the user deletes the text. You could put a white in these areas as default values and test for this instead of null. Now, when the user empty field, it will be null and will not empty so that the message will not appear.

    Make sense?

  • I want to be able to add and remove Web sites from the drop-down list

    I have a few addresses of websites on my drop down menu I want to delete and I want to add. How do I thias?

    You can only remove entries in the location list bar that are not favourites by pressing the DELETE key on a highlighted entry.

    Otherwise, such a bookmark link reappear if you revisit the site, or if there is always a visit counter.

    Bookmarks have a yellow star on the right end.

    You cannot add entries manually. Firefox creates this list automatically based on (frecency) bonus points are given according to the number of times you have visited a link.

  • Write in an external xml file

    OK, so ive been reading on xml and found theres this big thing appeal. appendChild(). that let your add a node to an xml file.

    Here's the catch, I can write in an external xml file, without the need to load it, DIRECTLY through flex?

    or I have to use some php i.e. backend


    Thanks heaps!

    ojk007

    The Flash Player, when it is hosted by a browser, severely limits access to the resources of the host computer. In other words, you cannot read and write files. If the XML file resides on the server, then you can use the code server-side (e.g. PHP) and edit the file, or you can load the XML file into your Flex application on the client computer, change it, then refer to something that can write the file.

  • External XML file of a chart

    I'm new to Flex, but using samples and documentation, I was able to create a simple chart that uses an external xml file for the data source is.

    I'm not sure how to get to the next step, i.e.:
    Having the table listening to all the changes in the xml file and update running.

    Can someone point me samples or documents that can help out me?

    Thank you

    source = 'path' is a * compile time * operation, so the XML is in fact embedded in the swf file.

    Loading the runtime, then use HTTPService.

    In addition, do not use mx: Model and if you are using HTTPService, be sure to set resultFormat = "e4x".

    Search the archives if you want to know why and read more details and examples.

  • Fill the tree with complex external XML file control

    Hi all. I've been combing through forums for two days and have not been able to find a solution to my problem. I'm trying to populate a control of the tree with an external xml file, but the xml file is not a simple. It is complex, and I don't know how to get the tree to display these data. I have attached the code. Can someone take a look and let me know how I could get this to work? Thank you!

    What does not work?

    Complexity of the XML is not, in itself, an issue for the tree.

    Also, I recommend using straight XML, unless specifically, you need Collection features.

  • Bind the drop down list to XML response from the web service

    In Designer ES2, I'm trying to populate a drop-down list with the data returned by a web service, but can't seem to get the link right.

    I created a web service using Workbench, which returns the following XML data (shown here in a text field for test purposes):

    image1.PNG

    However, when I bind this to the DataDropdownList control, LiveCycle seems to be putting the entire XML document in the drop-down list.

    Liaison:

    image2.PNG

    (Full text of the link is connectionData.groupLeaderWebService.Body.invokeResponse.xmlData.document.)

    Result:

    image3.PNG

    Therefore, a connection is made and the web service returns data, but it is not bound correctly as items in the list.

    I need the drop-down list to display the individual names returned by the web service.  Finally, it probably will be expanded to include the name and identification number (text and value, respectively).

    Can you see where I am going wrong with this?  Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Oops. Good fishing. This should be pls.loadXML (form1.page1.footer.lots.rawValue, 0, 1);

  • Connection to the external xml file

    How to use an external xml file as a data source for my LiveCycle form?

    I have a xml file on my server which is updated daily by a script. My LiveCycle form is on the server and can be pushed to the client by the click of a button on a web page or similar. Is it possible to have the LiveCycle form refresh its data before being sent to the client, or every day?

    I thought that the burden of form, a JavaScript function could check if the form is on the server, or check if the xml file is there, and if this is the case, update itself, else do nothing.

    I prefer to keep the xml file and the distinct shape that other applications and do scripts use xml file.

    Thank you.

    (1) if the form is used internally on the same network (ie: the xml file is still available over the network to your th) form questionable local files, but it requires advanced script.

    I did it with network drives shared tho. -If you do, I use the two solution

    (2) assuming you are using LC Reader Extensions as well as the form is "all over", not always on the network starting.

    -Expose the XML file through a Web service (if it is not sensitive data)

    -Get the form to query the Web service

    (3) but if you have installed with LiveCycle Forms.

    Use the readXML and how to bind the XML with the form.

  • Prepopulate the drop-down lists with xml file

    Hello world

    I'm trying to prepopulate a dropdown list using an xml file. There are many tutorials on the internet that allows me to do from the overview of the Designer tab. However, when I did it worked well, but I am not able to 'embed' the xml file so that the values appear in the workspace when the user starts a process.

    I tried to load the xml file with the contents of resource reading in the action profile of the first task and put the result in the "xmlPrepareData" but the problem is that I can't put all the values of the xmlPrepareData after because the xml model is not exactly the one used by LiveCycle.

    Any thoughts? Someone is already managed to prepopulate a dropdown list with an XML within the process?

    Kind regards

    Thomas

    OK gr8...

    Assuming you're able to get the XML process LC to your XDP/PDF form field.

    You can fix the XML from the drop-down under-

    clear the drop-down list box
    * DROPDOWN_Field.clearItems ();

    choiceList = XMLData.parse (* XML_Field.rawValue, false);

    divide the choiceList in an array of values

    choice = choiceList.resolveNodes("root.element[*].*NODENAME");

    var numchoices = choices.length;

    Adds an array of values in drop-down list
    for (var i = 0; i)< numchoices;="">

    {
    * DROPDOWN_Field.addItem (choices.item (i) .value);
    }

    * DROPDOWN_Field - is your field drop-down list.

    * XML_Field - is your XML data stored in a TextField.

    * NODENAME - is the name of the node in your XML to solve.

    I hope that Hepls...

  • XMLList to the external XML file

    Hi all

    I'm new to Flex, but I was impressed with it so far. I was able to create a simple, where things application like navigation trees and the data in the table were populated based on XML stored in tags mx:XMLList inside the main document. To clean things up, I thought that I would like to move the data in external XML files. I copied the data files and verified that the data has always been a single top-level node. Then, noted that mx:XMLList does not support the attribute 'source', so I converted to the use of mx:XML within the application mxml tags. Compiles the application now, but all of the XML hierarchy displayed in the form of a single node, instead of being analyzed in the tree nodes. No idea what I'm missing here? And thanks in advance for the noob easy going. ;-)

    -Josh

    Yet once, answered myself for posterity.

    For the tree data, the top node is implied, so I just had to change the dataProvider to {deviceTree.node}. For the data in the table, it was a little more difficult, where rather to link using a tag, I rather linked to it as a and then created a where the source is specified as the {[id XML]. [node]}. (once again the top node was already implicit)
