I'm interested in displaying the owner name of a
Case object, as well as other case details, on a page. Using Apex
Explorer, I've noticed that I have access to 'OwnerId', labeled as a
reference. However, I cannot access the owner (user) information
directly in the same query.
I have actually been able to
accomplish a similar feat (displaying the contact's name) using the
ContactId reference, selecting 'ContactId, Contact.Name', but I
apparently cannot do the same with the owner.
Has anybody found a
way to drill down for deeper information such as this? Another option I
see would be sticking all the owner id's in a long string, then
querying for the names with the "IN" keyword, then manually matching
them to their respective objects.
I'm currently working on a visualforce page that utilizes YUI's Drag and Drop. Dragging and dropping list elements is working quite nicely at the moment, so I've decided to add the ability for a user to double-click on a list element, shooting a signal via an actionFunction to have the page rerendered with that list element's outputFields replaced with inputFields (everything else rendered the same).
However, once the page rerenders, it does not retain all of the CSS that was applied. Using the Web Developer plugin for Firefox, I've found that the CSS for each of the ul-tags encapsulating the list items is lost in the rerendering process.
Has anybody experienced similar breakage in CSS when rerendering panels?
Hi, I'm
trying to parse a large string (~6570 characters) in apex through
splitting. Specifically, I have the whole string separated about evenly
into 8 sections by pipe ('|') characters (so very roughly about 821
characters per list element).
These lists are split even further, but I have commented out that code, and I still receive the error
System.ListException: Split results in a list that exceeds limits
upon splitting the first, biggest string into just 8 segments.
I'm not sure if the big picture is needed, so I'll try to describe
it as concisely as I can. In my visualforce page, the giant string is
constructed in javascript, then sent through an actionFunction as a
param to the apex code on the server side. The receiving method then
sends the giant string to an asynchronous method that parses the string and
updates approximately 150 records. It is in this function where the
error occurs.
I do not understand what limit I am breaking, so I was hoping someone could please clarify. Has anyone else possibly run into the same or similar problem? Moreover, is there another method I can use to
parse the string that would circumvent the issue? I'm still new to
salesforce and apex/visualforce development, so I'm still learning
these limitations and their corresponding workarounds.
Hi, I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the correct forum, so please direct me to the appropriate one if this isn't it.
Right off the bat, I should mention that I'm writing a standard Visualforce page that utilizes Apex code on the server, so I'm NOT using any s-controls, though I am exploring the possibility of using the AJAX toolkit.
I'm still pretty new to Apex/Visualforce, and I was wondering if it's possible to access my Apex methods from my Visuaforce page. Specifically, I'd like to pass a large string from my javascript to an asynchronous method in my Apex code on the server side for processing. The method will parse the string and eventually update a large number of records, the reason I chose to make it asynchronous. I figured I would accomplish this via the AJAX toolkit.
I understand that the AJAX toolkit allows one to perform operations, such as database query, merge, and update, but is it possible to use it to access custom methods? If not, I was wondering if someone could recommend another approach I should take to send information back to the Apex code?
'curStage' simply returns the element of 'stagesStrLst' of index 'curStageNum', which is set to 0 in the controller's constructor. Every time stageStr's get method is called, it should increment curStageNum.
In other words, what I think it should output on my Visualforce page is
0 a a
1 b b
2 c c
3 d d
4 e e
5 f f
6 g g
7 h h
where a, b... are the string elements in the list.
However, I instead get
0 a a
0 b a
0 c a
0 d a
0 e a
0 f a
0 g a
0 h a
It's looping through stagesStrLst just fine, but it seems curStageNum is never being incremented properly. In fact, the system log shows that the debug statements I inserted only output once (though the second debug statement reveals that curStageNum did indeed get incremented to 1, but that's never shown in the Visualforce page).
I'm pretty confused about this behavior and was wondering if someone could please explain why my Visualforce page never shows my integer variable being incremented? This was just a small test project to try get myself to understand what I can and can't do with Visualforce/Apex before I tackle a bigger, more functional project.
