Hi Karel,
Don`t forget about textareas :)
It would be nice if you could, when you finish the project, cotribute it as
a feature of XEclipse. The REST templates service could become a part of XE
as well.
Thanks,
Eduard

Hi Eduard,
thanks a lot for your help with this. Indeed, your JS kind of works. I've a
little bit fixed this and now I'm using:
String js = "function
getFormData() {\n";
js = js + "var formData =
{};\n";
js = js + "var stringData =
'';\n";
js = js + "var inputs =
document.getElementsByTagName(**'input');\n";
js = js + "for (var i = 0; i
< inputs.length; ++i) {\n";
js = js + "var input =
inputs[i];\n";
js = js + "if (input.value
== null || input.value == '' || input.type == 'button' || input.type ==
'submit') {\n";
js = js + "continue;\n";
js = js + "}\n";
//js = js + "alert('Input ['
+ i + '] (' + input.type + '): ' + input.name + ' = ' +
input.value)\n";
js = js + "formData[
input.name] = input.value;\n";
js = js + "stringData =
stringData + '[' + input.name + ']=' + input.value;\n";
js = js + "}\n";
js = js + "var selects =
document.getElementsByTagName(**'select');\n";
js = js + "for (var j = 0; j
< selects.length; ++j) {\n";
js = js + "var input =
selects[j];\n";
js = js + "if (input.value
== null || input.value == '' || input.type == 'button' || input.type ==
'submit') {\n";
js = js + "continue;\n";
js = js + "}\n";
//js = js + "alert('Input ['
+ i + '] (' + input.type + '): ' + input.name + ' = ' +
input.value)\n";
js = js + "formData[

js = js + "stringData =
stringData + '[' + input.name + ']=' + input.value;\n";
js = js + "}\n";
//js = js +

//js = js +

js = js + "return
stringData;\n";
js = js + "}\n";
//js = js + "formData;\n";
js = js + "return
getFormData();\n";
Thanks!

Thanks for the preview. It looks like you are using xpage=plain for plain
HTML rendering. This should be enough for basic templates. I some
templates
contain javascript inside them (for input validation, autocomplete, etc) ,
I
don`t think it will work since the JS is not included in xpage=plain.
Don`t
know if that`s a problem for your usecase.
Good luck,
Eduard
Now I just need to make sure page template creation is really working

After googling around on this topic, it seems that there is no clean way
all
the<input...> elements with their name and value and pass them to the
request performed by the 'Finish' button. I doubt that there will be more
than one<form> element in the template page, but even so, the main<form>
element's ID is 'inline'.
Here's a starting point based on the above:
var formData = {};
var inputs = document.getElementsByTagName(**'input');
for (var i = 0; i< inputs.length; ++i) {
var input = inputs[i];
if (input.value == null || input.value == '' || input.type == 'button'
||
input.type == 'submit') {
continue;
}
console.log('Input [' + i + '] (' + input.type + '): ' +
input.name + '
=
' + input.value)
formData[input.name] = input.value;
}
console.log(formData);
Note: Replace 'console' with alert if you are not running this in
Firebug's
console.
It does need some fine tuning, but it should work.
P.S.: Can you post a screenshot of the wizard page containing the
of
doing this.
The initial community-accepted way I managed to find was using
javascript
(Browser.execute(String)) to retrieve your data, store it in
window.status
and then, a BrowserStatusText listener would get that value from the
status
text. An example is here:
http://www.java2s.com/Code/****Java/SWT-JFace-Eclipse/**<http://www.java…
QueryDOMnodevalue.htm<http://**www.java2s.com/Code/Java/SWT-**
JFace-Eclipse/**QueryDOMnodevalue.htm<http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/SW…
>
On the other hand, by checking the Eclipse/SWT API, it seems that
Browser.evaluate(String) also got implemented along the way and,
compared
to
execute(String), it actually returns the value of the executed
JavaScript
so
you can use it directly. Documentation here:

So, to sum it up, use JS to document.getElementById(...) for each field
in
the form and use their names+values to build the request performed by
your
Finish button.
I'm afraid this is not possible. Imagine you do have completely unknown
template to you and you need your new page wizard to support it. You
don't
know at all what id you should use and how many of them to get all the
template forms values. For example let's have a template for book type
with
a fields: "Book name", "Author name" and "publication".
Id's of those
fields
in my particular case are: Book store.BookClass_0_name, Book
store.BookClass_0_author, Book store.BookClass_0_publication how the
template wizard author should know this? So IMHO this way is not possible
or
at least not in this way...
Well, from your template wizard and by using JavaScript, you could get template's
form?
It's small, so I hope nobody will be angry for attaching this directly.
This is a second page of the wizard creating page for Book with name
"Matka"
(Mother in English), author's name is "Karel Capek" and publication date
is
set to "1929" -- but this is completely untrue, just my example, the
first
real publication was in 1938. BTW: Karel Capek is listed from the dynamic
list of authors, which is a result of SPARQ query on top of Jena's DB.
Code
which shall be also open-source once we get green from the customer legal
department... "FOUND BOOK NAME" and "FOUND AUTHOR NAME" together
with
"<set
property operation aborted!>" are just debug messages from template .vm
code
where I'm using some of our semantics marcos (also to be open-sourced) --
this all is about semantic XWiki book store demo example... I'm creating
pages for authors and books using author and book template. Once you add
author page all the semantics props are set so you get it listed
automatically inside the book template code in author name dynamic SPARQ
list...
even
from XEclipse (this thread is all about)...
Thanks!
