LloydS Displaying custom view when user clicks on standard object tab
I believe this is easily accomplished using a Visualforce page but I cannot find any reference to previous posts. So I could use some help getting started.
When users click on the Cases tab, we simply want a custom view displaying all open cases rather than all recent cases. They still need the other functionality on the Cases tab, just change the view from recent to open.
I tried accomlishing this by creating a custom web tab using a javascript reference to the URL for the custom view to be displayed. But it created a cross site scripting error.
1. Create VF page, when standardController="XXX__c"
2. Click Setup | Create | Objects | XXX | Buttons and Links
3. In the Standard Buttons and Links related list, click Edut next to XXXTab.
4. For Override With select Visualforce Page.
5. From the Visualforce Page drop-down list, select tabbedAccount.
6. Click Save.

I found a post on a blog page that had an example of doing this using javascript. However, in the version below it's loading a blank page when a user clicks on the Case tab.
<apex:Page tabStyle="Case" > <script src="/soap/ajax/15.0/connection.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" /> <script> window.onload = function() { sforce.connection.sessionId = '{!$Api.Session_ID}'; var describeSObjectResult = sforce.connection.describeSObject("case"); var prefix = describeSObjectResult.keyPrefix; var cView = "00BA0000001TxJ6"; } // Change the whole window to point to this location parent.document.location.href = "/" + prefix + "?fcf=" + cView ; } </script> </apex:page>
