I'm very new to writing triggers, but I think it's time to learn.  Here's the scenario:

I'm building an Invoice__c record by adding multiple Invoice_Item__c as Master Detail related list

An Invoice_Item__c consists of an Equipment__c lookup, an Equipment__c.Hourly_Rate__c.  

Next, I need to calculate the tax added to this related record.  I keep the tax rates in a non-related table
Tax_Rates__c

How would I write a trigger on the Invoice_Item__c object to pull Invoice__c.State then match it to Tax_Rates__c.State and return Tax_Rates__c.Rate into a field on Invoice_Item__c?

I have a picklist field (color__c) that has 4 possible values (Super Green, Green, Yellow & Red).  I need to show those colors based on the value of the field.

Here's what I have code-wise: 

<h1>Color: {!Support_Scorecard__c.Color_Code__c} </h1>

Here's the formula behind color_code__c: 

That works just fine in the regular page layout, but doesn't work at all in Visualforce.  What am I missing?

Any help you can offer is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Hi..,

I have VF page which contains dropdown ,an execute button and Refresh button and a table.Upon selecting a value in the dropdown and click on execute button,at the back end a method will execute and update a value custom object field.

Upon Clicking the Refresh button i want to display the update value in the table of VF page.I am able to update the table but whole page is getting loaded.

I want to refresh only the table componenet part not the dropdown when i click refresh button.

Can anyone please help me acheive this.

Thanks,

Hey-

Pretty much think I know the answer to this one but I thought I would throw it out there to the group. I have a Apex script that sends an email based on a trigger. I would like the email to come from an email address other than the person who fired the triger. Looks like this is not possible. Any thoughts?

For example:

John Doe with the email address john.doe@acme.com fires a trigger when he updates an account. This trigger needs to send an email to another person Jane Doe. I would like this email to appear to come from Jane.Doe@acme.com not John.Doe@acme.com

Thanks in advance!

I have a standard HTML table tag that has three columns in each column I am trying to render a apex:dataList by passing a list of data to it.

Here is my code:

<tr>
<td><strong>Capabilities 1:</strong>
<apex:dataList value="{!sk.sh1}" var="skh">
<apex:outputText value="{!skh.Characteristic__c}"/>
</apex:dataList>
</td>
<td><strong>Capabilities 2:</strong>
<apex:dataList value="{!sk.sh2}" var="skh">
<apex:outputText value="{!skh.Characteristic__c}"/>
</apex:dataList>
</td><td><strong>Capabilities 3:</strong>
<apex:dataList value="{!sk.sh3}" var="skh">
<apex:outputText value="{!skh.Characteristic__c}"/>
</apex:dataList>
</td>
</tr>

When the page renders it renders the table like this:

<tr>
<td><strong>Capabilities 1:</strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="data2Col first " colSpan="2">
<ul class="" id="j_id0:j_id2:db:0:j_id3:j_id13:j_id15">
<li id="j_id0:j_id2:db:0:j_id3:j_id13:j_id15:0" class="">A/B ratio 1/8 or worse</li>
<li id="j_id0:j_id2:db:0:j_id3:j_id13:j_id15:1" class="">&#8220;Power Promoter&#8221; letters reflect no attemp</li>
</ul>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="data2Col first " colSpan="2"></td>
<td><strong>Capabilities 2 :</strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="data2Col first " colSpan="2">
<ul class="" id="j_id0:j_id2:db:0:j_id3:j_id13:j_id18">
<li id="j_id0:j_id2:db:0:j_id3:j_id13:j_id18:0" class="">&#8220;Power Promoter&#8221; letters reflect inconsistent attempt to create Action Plan</li>
</ul>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="data2Col first " colSpan="2"></td>
<td><strong>Capabilities 3:</strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="data2Col first " colSpan="2">
<ul class="" id="j_id0:j_id2:db:0:j_id3:j_id13:j_id21">
<li id="j_id0:j_id2:db:0:j_id3:j_id13:j_id21:0" class="">&#8220;Power Promoter&#8221; letters reflect consistent ability to create Action Plan</li></ul>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="data2Col first last " colSpan="2"> </td>
</tr>

As you can see it is sticking in a bunch of extra <tr> & <td> tags. I even tried to render the List with apex:repeat and apx:datatable and still got the issue.

Any thoughts/ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!
