Tried adding some pretty standard Javascript files as static resources. Having problems including the files in VF pages which contain unicode character. Is unicode not supported?
I have a quite complex lead assignment process for which lead assignment rules are simply not up to the task, both in complexity and number.
I can overcome the complexity problem by using a webservice to calculate the name of the user I need to assign the lead to but I still have problems as rules like Manager__c = "X" assign to user X would cause me to hit the limit of assignment rules.
So I was thinking I could do it with an Apex trigger but I have been unable to find a way so far. I have some up with something like:
Code:
trigger assignLead on Lead (before insert, before update)
{
for (Integer i = 0; i < Trigger.new.size(); i++)
{
if (trigger.new[i].Status == 'Qualified')
{
Trigger.new[i].Owner.Name = [Select Name from User where Name = 'X'][0].Name;
}
}
}
Messy I know but that was after trying many different things, so far but that throws a compile error "Field is not writeable: Owner.Name at line 7 column 28" and was wondering if I was thinking down the wrong route?
Not been able to find anything about this in documentation. Is it possible to access DOM methods and properties for visual force objects? I am looking at making paired lists similar to the ones on the Web-To-Lead setup page which allows users to select, order and switch items between lists. I have constructed the lists and tied them into the data fine so just need to code the buttons. Is this at all possible in Visual Force/Apex do this or will I need to use Javascript like the components on other pages?
Causes an error: 'Customisations' is not a valid child rationship name for entity Setting. The name right and I think I have the objects setup right. SettingId is the Id of the setting record I am using to store the information and the customisation record is related to the correct one. Seems to be moaning about the right object so I doubt its a custom controller problem.
Building a page in Visual force. Has a detail view of a custom object and an Edit button with action !edit. Below is another Pageblock. If I have another button New here with an action !new and save I get the error: Unexpected token: PageReference and lose all changes I had made. If I add public PageReference new() into the code I get Error: Compile Error: unexpected token: PageReference at line 61 column 12. Surely its possible to have more than one button on a page?
Had a play with Visual Force as our app is all in clunky S-Controls at the moment and I'm very impressed with it so far, however have not found a way to get around the follow problem.
We want to have a way of selecting which countries apply using check boxes but the following code will not work:
public String[] getCountries() { returnnew String[]{'GBR','USA','CAN','IRL'}; }
public List<String> getCountrySelection() { List<String> countrylist = new List<String>(); countrylist.add('GBR'); countrylist.add('USA'); return countrylist; }
Within the <apex:repeat> tags it is possible to output the country names with an <apex:outputText value="{!Country}/> and also possible to make an <apex:selectItem> using an API reference to a string outside of the repeat tags but cant seem to find a way to loop through countries and make an <apex:selectItem> for each.

I've made a visualforce page that uses the Contact standardController, for some reason it doens't show up as an option in the override view page list. I can see it in the override tab list though. Any ideas?
