Great stuff, works brilliantly.

I’m trying to use the scriptaculous InPlaceEditor with the Ajaxed library,
and I’m not sure how a can call the ajaxed.callback using the InPlaceEditor.
Does anyone know how to link the 2 together? Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

I need to pass a variable to function loaded(recs), but am having what I think are syntax problems.

I have a variable number of rows that are all identical except for the row number is at the end of each form.field (eg. document.form.Price2). How can I get the variable passed into the loaded function for use?

function BarCodeLookup(x,recs) {
var Condition = document.frm.Inventory_Condition_GUID[x];
var Type = document.frm.Inventory_Type_GUID[x];
var Size = document.frm.Inventory_Size_GUID[x];

btw Justin in your case i would also recommend to parse the ID in order to prevent any malicious input:

PLAIN TEXT

ASP:

page.return(db.getRecordset("spTT_Timecard_GetTimecardHeaderInfo_2 " & str.parse(page.RF("id"), 0) ))

The str.parse() method ensures that the value will be an integer. If it cannot be parsed then 0 is returned. if you need the value 0 then just use it with e.g -1

PLAIN TEXT

ASP:

page.return(db.getRecordset("spTT_Timecard_GetTimecardHeaderInfo_2 " & str.parse(page.RF("id"), -1) ))

hope its clear ;)

justin, to access the param you use page.RF(fieldname). i use the name ID in the example:

PLAIN TEXT

ASP:

page.return(db.getRecordset("spTT_Timecard_GetTimecardHeaderInfo_2 " & page.RF("id") ))

you have 2 choices to pass the id now to the callback.

1) give your form tag the id frm. Then all form fields will be passed to the callback. Thus you would need a form field with the name id. Example:

PLAIN TEXT

HTML:

id="frm">
type="text" name="id">
onclick="ajaxed.callback('getheaderinfo', displayheader)">load

note: you see i am only using two parameters for the function .. as the others are optional and can be omitted.

2) pass the values you need manually using the params parameter

PLAIN TEXT

JAVASCRIPT:

ajaxed.callback('getheaderinfo', displayheader, {id: 10});
//ID taken from a form field named 'id'
//prototypes helper method $F is used
ajaxed.callback('getheaderinfo', displayheader, {id: $F('id')});

hope that helps you for your further development.
cheers

Here's another question for you!

the following code is in my callback sub:

[vbscript]
page.return(db.getRecordset("spTT_Timecard_GetTimecardHeaderInfo_2 3198" ))
[/vbscript]

currently the 3198 sp param is hardcoded. I need this parameter to be passed to my callback sub.

How would I do that?

once again here is the javascript call to the callback sub:

PLAIN TEXT

CODE:

ajaxed.callback('getheaderinfo', displayheader, null, null, 'timecard.asp');

Thanks in advance.

justin btw: the escaping with hex is okay .. it escapes the / char within the data. thats by JSON definition

justin you were fast finding the mistake . .i couldnt even get a chance to help :) btw: the returned JSON seems to be incorrect as there are two } in the end...

{"root":["compname":"Brandrund Furniture Inc", "jobname":"Marketing Coordinator", "jobid":4669, "asssup":"John Smith", "asseml":"john@brandrund.com", "csup": "Samantha Smith", "cpeml":"samantha@testcorp.com","":"6\u002F17\u002F2007"}]}

do you recognize them? is that really what comes back or is it just a typo from your side?

Hello All,

This was the problem for me....

PLAIN TEXT

JAVASCRIPT:

ajaxed.callback('getheaderinfo', 'displayheader', null, null, 'timecard.asp');

SHOULD BE:

PLAIN TEXT

JAVASCRIPT:

ajaxed.callback('getheaderinfo', displayheader, null, null, 'timecard.asp');

Notice that the second param of the callback function in the 2nd statement has no single quotes around the func (2nd) parameter?

Now I can move forward very quickly.

Thanks again. PS: your code handles stored procedures just fine.
