Salesforce example S-Control problem

Hi,

I've been trying to reuse the code from:http://wiki.apexdevnet.com/index.php/Create_a_many_to_many_relationship_with_a_multi-select_picklist

I have just changed the api names to my custom objects, but nothing else, and am
hitting a problem.

When I click on the Add button, nothing happens, and I get an error in Fire bug:
DuelingListBoxesElement is not defined
moveOption(select#select_0, select#select_1, "--None--", [], null, "--None--", undefined, undefined, undefined)functions.js (line 797)
DuelingListBoxesElement.moveOption(sourceSelect, targetSelect, keepSourceLab...

I tracked it down to the following line:

<td align=center><a href="javascript:moveOption(document.placebook.select_0,document.placebook.select_1,'--None--', [],null,'--None--');"><img src="/img/arrow_rt.gif" border="0" alt="Add" title="Add" width=23 height=23></a></td>
</tr>

Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Really appreciate it, as this is key functionality for me.

Full code is below, with error line about 2/3rds down.

Andy

I would expect that there's a js file you need to include here.  Have a look at some built-in page that already has dueling listboxes and look at the js files it includes, and compare and contrast with yours.

Hi XactAndy,
 
I'm having the same problem with the Many to Many S-Control. I get the DuelingListboxesElement Undefined. I was wondering if you found a solution to this problem. It would help me a lot.
 
Thanks

Same issue here. Anyone figured this one out?

Thanks.

Try including /dJS/en/library.js.

Do that and you get the unenviable task of retesting your code with every release salesforce does since we have and will continue to change things in that and all other libraries without notice. We offer no backwards compatibility guarantee or "API" for our Javascript libraries, request parameters, URL patterns, or DOM Ids.

If you want to leverage any standard salesforce.com javascript then you should take a copy of it and store it somewhere permanent so it won't get updated out from under you in the future.

Hi,

I too got a similar kind of issue. And finally after seeing this post, I added "/djs/en/library.js" and the issue got resolved. But actually I am not clear about what is the issue and how adding this js file resolved the issue. Could anyone tell  me?

 

 

Thanks,

Sorna

Somewhere in that spaghetti there is a reference to a function or object that is provided by library.js.  Following this example and referencing library.js in this way is a recipe for disaster. You are better off moving to Visualforce and utilizing static resources if you need to copy out any of the standard JS to shield you from unexpected changes.
