Skip to main content

Why are my scripts giving 404 errors and "content not found"? They are RIGHT THERE.

By
To future me (and anyone else who comes across it):

WebContent/ is the root folder for resources. Not WebContent/WEB-INF/. WebContent/WEB-INF/ is actually protected and hidden from the browser, even if you explicitly include it in your URL. So put your /js/ folder and /css/ folder under WebContent/ and not WebContent/WEB-INF/.

Future you will thank you for remembering or for checking here before spending several hours trying to figure out why this isn't working. Again.

You're welcome.

- Past you.

Pass data between XPages and existing LS scripts

By
I'm working on modernizing a fairly hefty application with a lot of existing script libraries which we want to leverage within the XPages environment. Here is a technique that works very well. First, create an in-memory document in SSJS. We can set any input values needed for the back end. Then we pass that document to a LS Agent which can work it's magic using the values set in SSJS and use the same document to return values back to the XPage. Here is how it works in detail:

Rows per page selection: Part 1

By
I was asked to create a control that would allow users to select the number of rows per page in a view/repeat control (the application uses both). It seemed simple at first, but I ran into a few issues that I thought I'd share the solutions to. First, lets start at the beginning. I went through the relevant design elements and set row="#{viewScope.tableRows}" , and I created an xp:comboBox with value="#{viewScope.tableRows}" and added items for 20, 30, 50, and 100, and I assigned it an onChange event handler that did a partial execution and partial refresh of a div containing the combo box, pager and the table. Then I started fixing all the problems. Problem 1: The combobox value was a string, but the rows parameter requires an integer. This was causing IllegalArgumentException / java.lang.String incompatible with java.lang.Integer. I added a NumberConverter, but this only slightly changed the exception message to java.lang.Long incompatible with java.lang....

Quick tip: Convert a number to String in EL

By
I just had a need to do this and a Google search didn't immediately turn up a solution. So I thought for a couple of minutes and came up with this: value="0#{numberVar}" This takes advantage of the way Java auto-converts objects to strings when doing a concatenation. So if your number is 13, Java EL turns this into new String("0"+13), which becomes "013". You can then strip off the leading zero or just parse the string back into a number.
