Hopefully this is a no-brainer for a javascript HTML DOM wiz out there:

I have an s-control hosted in a custom web tab. To further complicate things, it itself contains an iframe that displays an .aspx page. I see in the source of the sfdc page that is displayed, that the iframe "itarget", which hosts the s-control has height set to 100% and width set to whatever px you chose when creating the tab. Is there a way to change this so that the content in the s-control can be displayed and span all the usable space without creating a second set of vertical scrollbars? Also, when the s-control does its thing, it will present more content (i.e.- returns some search results), so even if I can resize onload, do I also need to be checking the embedded page's length and possibly resize based on some subsequent event - like the return/display of more content?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

If I have a binding from an external application, is there a way to post to the emailauthor.jsp servlet? Can I pass url and sessionid (and anything else?) as additional form fields in a POST request?

I've been able to replicate the form in an s-control, set its values, and submit it, but to be able to run as a process not requiring s-control to be loaded in a client browser (i.e. - run in a server-side function) would be ideal. i'm aware that i could get to the page via the frontdoor.jsp route, but even then, i'm programmatically "navigating" thru SFDC, rather than more efficiently just accessing the relevent servlet.

If this cannot be done due to design or security decision - it would be a great enhancement. Since email templates are not accessible via API, sending emails from external smtp is not ideal from content/template administrative perspective.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi,
has anyone else experienced issues with values provided via the sforce api when requesting the IsClosed field on the Case object? All values come thru as "False", even when confirming thru DataLoader that there are True values. Am using VS, coding in VB.NET. Filtering on client to show all, closed and open, but have done workaround w/ indexOf() of Status value to determine closed -- this is not my preference as it doesn't provide for good reuse for customers with different Status naming. Any thoughts?

Cheers,

Hi All,

 

I work with an ISV Partner who has a developer org where a managed package is updated / upgraded / tested and then uploaded "privately' to the exchange for a set of clients to install.

 

The orgs that install my package have the standard EE limits applied to them.

 

Herein lies the issue I have come across, whilst doing some development a new TAB was inadvertently added to the managed package and subsequently uploaded as a 'managed - released' package. It took the custom TABS within the managed package to 26.

 

This as you can see has caused HUGE implications across the current install base and for new clients. The package is constantly being updated / customised to suit clients needs and updates are continously being pushed however now that it has 26 TABS it will not install on any of the orgs as it reaches the 25 custom tab limit.

 

I REALLY NEED HELP BRAINSTORMING SOME POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS!!!

 

As I see it there are a range of possibilities and I look to any sf reps / partner ops / product managers subject matter experts out there to let me know what is feasible.

 

IDEAL SOLUTION - Since the tab that has been added is not installed on any clients org (it physically cannot be because of the limit on the install orgs, developer org doesn't have a tab limit) - I'm looking for an overall package admin or someone that can reference or edit the package I have created and manually remove the tab from it altogether. It can be deleted from the salesforce developer instance altogether I don't care it's not needed at all! Support tells me it cannot be deleted but someone out there must have access to it!!

Is there a way to 'rollback' to a previous package version that only had 25tabs in it's managed set>? And then be able to delete the 25th tab somehow completely from the developer org?

 

Other options include:

 

Going through the LMA process and getting the application security checked so that it's contents do not affect sf org limits. This is obviously primary concern right now however the whole process could take up to 2-3 weeks which is time we don't have! This problem needed to be sorted out YESTERDAY!

 

Upgrading provisions on future clients and current installbase so that orgs can install apps with more than 25 tabs. (i.e. increase tab limit)

 

I really need to know if the ideal solution is feasible here as that would be well... Ideal. But I'm interested to see if anyone has any other suggestions.

TIME IS A FACTOR. There are new clients coming on board this week and next not to mention the current install base that is catered for in package updates so this really needs to get sorted out.

 

As always any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance for any reads of this post.

I have a problem: we should fire a trigger after a file was attached to a custom object. Unfortunately the “after insert” and the “before insert” event on the Attachment object doesn’t get fired (but the after delete event does but we don't need that).

Does anybody has an  idea why? It can't be the code, it's just debugoutput. Or any workaroung?

Is there any way to get a custom S-Control to be displayed on the Home page layout?
