ShareThis setting properties in callback don't work - url

I'm using the ShareThis widget. I need to change the url property after the object has been created so I'm using the callback function option. In the callback function, I attempt to change the url property but the email that goes out still contains the old value.
Has anyone been able to solve this problem? If so, I would appreciate your help!
Here's a code sample
<script type="text/javascript">
SHARETHIS.addEntry({
title: 'ShareThis'},
{ onclick: myCustomCallback }
function myCustomCallback(SharedObject) {
SharedObject.properties.url = "http://www.myurl.com";
return true;
};
</script>

Use this:
$('span[class^="st_"]').html(''); // Empty span contents
$('span[class^="st_"]').attr('st_processed',null); // Reset ST plugin
$('span[class^="st_"]').attr('st_url',url); // Set new url
stButtons.makeButtons(); // Renew buttons

It's not possible to change the URL dynamically. If you want to do something funky, you'll need to create a new button with the new URL. This can be accomplished a few ways, the simplest being creating an element to contain the button and trigger creation of a custom button element every time something happens that should trigger the URL change.
I can show you a sample implementation that we put together for HP a few weeks ago. They actually call the "share" function from inside a Flash movie, but this prototype triggers it from a button.

How to change the sending message "Please wait..." of the form button after it is already loaded?

I'm calling a Mautic form using its token instead of a manual copy.
{form = 5}
When the form is submitted, the button text temporarily changes to "Please wait ...".
However, I need it to be a different text.
If I implement the form by manual copy, I could modify this message just by declaring this variable.
var MauticLang = {
'submittingMessage': "Another text"
}
I tried this in a script within the HTML where the form is, after and before it, also after the DOM is loaded, but there was no effect. I investigated the code on the page as much as I could, but to no avail. I have researched, but can't find a solution anywhere.
How to change the button sending message after the form is already loaded?
Modify submittingMessage value is the way to go.
MauticLang.submittingMessage = "Hold your horses...";
Or
MauticLang = {
'submittingMessage': "Hold your horses..."
}
In addition, to ensure that you are modifying it after Mautic is loaded, you can use setTimeOut with load event listener on window.
Something like 5 seconds, enough time to have the form not fully filled by the user.
So, the final solution could be:
window.addEventListener('load', function() {
setTimeout(function() {
MauticLang.submittingMessage = "Hold your horses..";
}, 5000);
});

NetSuite/Suitescript/Workflow: How do I open a URL from a field after clicking button?

I have a workflow that adds a button "Open Link" and a field on the record called "URL" that contains a hyperlink to an attachment in NetSuite. I want to add a workflow action script that opens this url in a different page. I have added the script and the workflow action to the workflow. My script:
function openURL() {
var url = nlapiGetFieldValue('custbody_url');
window.open(url);
}
I get this script error after clicking the button: "TypeError: Cannot find function open in object [object Object].
How can I change my script so it opens the URL in the field?
(This function works when I try it in the console)
Thanks!
Do you want it to work when the record is being viewed or edited? They have slightly different scripts. I'm going to assume you want the button to work when the record is being viewed, but I'll write it so it works even when the document is being edited as well.
The hard part about the way Netsuite has set it up is that it requires two scripts, a user event script, and a client script. The way #michoel suggests may work too... I've never inserted the script by text before personally though.
I'll try that sometime today perhaps.
Here's a user event you could use (haven't tested it myself though, so you should run it through a test before deploying it to everyone).
function userEvent_beforeLoad(type, form, request)
{
/*
Add the specified client script to the document that is being shown
It looks it up by id, so you'll want to make sure the id is correct
*/
form.setScript("customscript_my_client_script");
/*
Add a button to the page which calls the openURL() method from a client script
*/
form.addButton("custpage_open_url", "Open URL", "openURL()");
}
Use this as the Suitescript file for a User Event script. Set the Before Load function in the Script Page to userEvent_beforeLoad. Make sure to deploy it to the record you want it to run on.
Here's the client script to go with it.
function openURL()
{
/*
nlapiGetFieldValue() gets the url client side in a changeable field, which nlapiLookupField (which looks it up server side) can't do
if your url is hidden/unchanging or you only care about view mode, you can just get rid of the below and use nlapiLookupField() instead
*/
var url = nlapiGetFieldValue('custbody_url');
/*
nlapiGetFieldValue() doesn't work in view mode (it returns null), so we need to use nlapiLookupField() instead
if you only care about edit mode, you don't need to use nlapiLookupField so you can ignore this
*/
if(url == null)
{
var myType = nlapiGetRecordType();
var myId = nlapiGetRecordId();
url = nlapiLookupField(myType, myId,'custbody_url');
}
//opening up the url
window.open(url);
}
Add it as a Client Script, but don't make any deployments (the User Event Script will attach it to the form for you). Make sure this script has the id customscript_my_client_script (or whatever script id you used in the user event script in form.setScript()) or else this won't work.
Another thing to keep in mind is that each record can only have one script appended to it using form.setScript() (I think?) so you may want to title the user event script and client script something related to the form you are deploying it on. Using form.setScript is equivalent to setting the script value when you are in the Customize Form menu.
If you can get #michoel's answer working, that may end up being better because you're keeping the logic all in one script which (from my point of view) makes it easier to manage your Suitescripts.
The problem you are running into is that Workflow Action Scripts execute on the server side, so you are not able to perform client side actions like opening up a new tab. I would suggest using a User Event Script which can "inject" client code into the button onclick function.
function beforeLoad(type, form) {
var script = "window.open(nlapiGetFieldValue('custbody_url'))";
form.addButton('custpage_custom_button', 'Open URL', script);
}

JQM - Inject dynamic content at load time only

I'm trying to dynamically populate a select tag at load time (latest jQM version) using a custom template filling function.
If the fn is called in the "pagebeforechange" event, the select tag is properly initialized. Since this event is called on every page transition, I thought of moving the fn to the 'pageinit' event. This does not work, presumably because the DOM is not yet fully available. How can I coerce jQM to inject content in a page only once? Currently, I am using a kludge. There surely must be a smarter way. Thanks for any suggestions.
$(document).bind('pageinit', function () {
InitSelTagTest("#selActTag", "tplTag"); // Does not work.
});
$(document).bind("pagebeforechange", function (e, data) {
if ($("#selActTag").children().size() === 0) {
InitSelTagTest("#selActTag", "tplTag"); // Kludge, but it works
}
});
function InitSelTagTest(el,tpl) { // Append all tags to element el
var lstAllTags = JSON.parse($("#hidTag").val()); // Create tag array
// Retrieve html content from template.
var cbeg = "//<![" + "CDATA[", cend = "//]" + "]>";
var rslt = tmpl(tpl, { ddd: lstAllTags }).replace(cbeg, ").replace(cend,");
$(el).html(rslt).trigger("create"); // Add to DOM.
}
EDIT
In response to Shenaniganz' comment, it seems that the "pagebeforecreate" event could do the trick ie.
$("#pgAct").live("pagebeforecreate", function () {
// Populate tag select. Works. Traversed only once.
InitSelTag("#selActTag", "tplTag");
});
I'm not sure I fully understand your question but I'll throw a few things out there and you let me know if I can extend further.
To make something trigger only once on page load you can try to implement a regular JQuery $(document).ready(function(){}) aka $(function(){}) for the exact reason why JQuery Mobile users are told not to use it. It triggers only once on DOM load. Further pages don't trigger it because they're being switched via Ajax.
Other than that, on regular dynamic content loading you take a look at the following example I put together for someone else earlier:

Grails: How do I make a g:textfield to load some data and display it in other g:textfield?

I have two g:textfields
in the first one I should write a number lets say 12 and in the g:textfield next to it it should load the predetermined name for number 12.
The first one is named 'shipper' and the other 'shipperName'
Whenever I write the code 12 in the 'shipper' txtfield, it should return the name of the shipper in the 'shipperName' box.
Thanks in advance!
Examples:
If I write the number 12 it should return USPS
http://i53.tinypic.com/2i90mc.jpg
And every number should have a different 'shipperName'
Thanks again!
That's quite easy if you'll use jQuery. Check out the event handlers ("blur" is the one you want which occurs when the user leaves the numerical box).
For example:
$("#shipper").blur(function() {
$("#shipperName").load(
"${createLink(controller: 'shipper', action: 'resolveShipper')}?id=" +
$("#shipper").val()
);
});
The $(this).val() at the end is the value of the input field the user just left.
And the "ShipperController.resolveShipper" action would look something like this:
def resolveShipper = {
render text: Shipper.get(params.id).name, contentType: "text/plain"
}
There are other things you might want to do, like automatically filling in the shipperName field as the user types without leaving the edit field, probably after a delay. However the event handler stays the same, just the event is changing (from "blur" to "change" or something like this)
To relate two strings, it's easiest to use an object to create a dictionary/ map, as shown below;
$('#input1').bind('keyup',function() {
var map = {
"1":"One",
"2":"Fish",
"3":"Bar"
};
$('#input2').val(map[$(this).val()]);
});
You can see this in action here: http://www.jsfiddle.net/dCy6f/
If you want the second value only to update when the user has finished typing into the first input field, change "keyup" to "change".

sIFR3 show text while loading

I am using sIFR3 on a website. I remember in sIFR2 you coul use this sIFR.bHideBrowserText = false; to show the text before sIFR kicks in.
How do you do this in sIFR3 and where do you put the code?
Thanks for your help.
C
The feature as it existed in sIFR 2 no longer exists in sIFR 3. You could achieve the same affect like this, though:
sIFR.autoInitialize = false;
sIFR.activate(movie);
sIFR.removeFlashClass();
sIFR.replace(movie, { selector: 'h1' });
window.onload = function(){
sIFR.setFlashClass();
sIFR.initialize();
};
Where, of course, movie is the appropriate variable that references the Flash movie. You might want to connect to the onload event through another JavaScript framework. You must wait until full page load, things like $(document).ready() (jQuery) will not work reliably cross-browser.
