Hi Ryan: I'm trying to install the Ajax helper Package in "server/acs-admin/apm/packages-install"

--------------------------------------------------------
Install Package Directory Comment
X ajaxhelper 5.2.2 /packages/ajaxhelper New install.
-----------------------------------------------------------

I select the package and then press next.. The message is "No packages selected." What can I do? Thanks.

Hi Ryan: I install the new version, and finally I could run the smart-search-widget.tcl, but when I go to type any letter in the box, the internet explorer says that the page is ready but have error:

'Ajax' is undefined
smart-search-widget.tcl
line 111
char 1

This has to be with the ajaxhelper? or is another thing?
thanks.

Hi Lourdes,

Yes, this looks like a problem with the JavaScript created by ajaxhelper. You will have to make sure the objects are referenced correctly.

I'd suggest opening the page in FireFox + Firebug to see exactly what line is producing the error. It most likely has something to do with differences between the ajaxhelper version on which I developed the widget, and the current ajaxhelper.

Once you find the line, see if you can figure out what ajaxhelper proc should be called.

Best regards,
Ryan

Hi Ryan. thank you for all your help..

In the Firefox + firebug show me 1 error:
-----------------------
Ajax is not defined
onkeyup(keyup charCode=0, keyCode=83) --- eRBcWOuq...3Fg%3D%3D (line 2)
new (Ajax.Updater)("results_box"...ameters: Form.serialize("searchform")});
------------------------
when I click in "onkeyup" or in the line "new(Ajax.Update...) the script show me:

function onkeyup(event) {
new (Ajax.Updater)("results_box", "search-users", {asynchronous: true, method: "post", parameters: Form.serialize("searchform")});
document.getElementById("results_box").style.visibility = "visible";
}

Where can I found this function, or what is wrong with this function?

Hi Lourdes,

The problem you reported probably means that the JS code is not being loaded for the page. take a lok at the Ajax Helper docs in the /doc/ajaxhelper in you install. In order for the package to work, you need the following changes:

The ajax helper package must be installed and mounted in /ajax . The installer should automatically mount the ajax helper in /ajax/ upon installation of the package.

Lee Denison's template::head code must be available. This code will soon be committed to CVS head after consulting the community and some more testing.

In the mean time, you can find the files you need to implement template head from packages/ajaxhlper/www/docs. You should copy the files into the following locations
acs-integration-procs.tcl
openacs_root/packages/acs-templatng/tcl/
head-procs.tcl
openacs_root/packages/acs-templatng/tcl/
blank-master.adp
openacs_root/www/

blank-master.tcl
openacs_root/www/
site-master.adp
openacs_root/www/
site-master.tcl
openacs_root/www/
default-master.tcl

Hi Eduardo, I install again the package in /ajax. When I copy the files (acs-integration-procs.tcl,head-procs.tcl,blank-master.adp....etc) into the following location I have that error in server:

Hi Lourdes,

This problem seems to be related with the package versions you are using. Can you take a look at wich versions you are using? Take a look at the file /acs-admin/apm link for the acs-templating and acs-subsite packages, please.

Posted by Eduardo Santos on 03/18/09 01:46 AM

Sorry Lourdes. I've seen in your previous post that you are using OpenACS 5.2.3, right? In order to the Ajax Jelper to work in this version, there can be some complications. The problem you've reported indicates that there was'nt yet the subsite callback that creates the template::head API's.

Maybe this link can help you:

http://fisheye.openacs.org/browse/OpenACS/openacs-4/packages/acs-subsite/tcl/subsite-callback-procs.tcl

I remember to make it work on 5.2.3, but I don't remember how I did it. I'm going to check my commit log and show you latter.

Cheers

Hi Eduardo: The OpenACS is 5.2.2 and the AjaxHelper version is 0.87d.

What do you mean if I check my commit logs?

Posted by Lourdes Martínez on 03/28/09 03:26 AM

Hi Eduardo, you mention previously that you don't remember how you did it, and you were going to review your commit logs and show me later.

I could not have resolved the problem yet. I only need to integrate the smart search widget (autosuggest) in a text box with the openacs doing only a select /n from a table.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Lourdes,

Is it possible for you to upgrade your instance to version 5.4.3?

This is going back a ways, but I think the widget was developed without template::head.

If not, please post your code to pastebin.org so we can take a look.

Ryan

Ok, I will update my instance to the version 5.4.3. I don't know if that version have the ajaxhelper package.

I only need that the box show me the results of my select depending on the letter I write.

I show you my tree files:

1. smart-search-widget.tcl
----------------------------
set js_update_user_select [ah::ajaxupdate \
-container "results_box" \
-url "search-users" \
-pars "Form.serialize('searchform')"]

2. smart_search_widget.adp
---------------------------
.
.

<.. id="searchform">

<.. type="text" name="search" id="search" onKeyUp="@js_update_user_select;noquote@ document.getElementById('results_box').style.visibility='visible';" autocomplete="off" value="" />
.

3. search_users.tcl
---------------------
ad_page_contract {

@author Ryan Gallimore (rgallimore@viscousmedia.com)
@creation-date 2006-09-23

} {
{search ""}
}

#ns_log notice "private-messaging search='$search'"

if { [string length $search] == 0 } {
ns_write "No results"
ad_script_abort
} elseif { [string length $search] < 3 } {
# Show all results if search string is 1 or two characters.
set search ""
}

set search [string tolower $search]

set package_id [ad_conn subsite_id]

set response ""

# Get users in the current subsite only

db_foreach get_search_results "

select n,n,n
from my_table
order by n

# select distinct u.username,
# p.first_names || ' ' || p.last_name as name,
# u.username as email

# where p.person_id = u.user_id

# and rel.object_id_one = ag.group_id
# and ag.package_id = :package_id
# and (lower(p.first_names || ' ' || p.last_name) like '%$search%'

# order by name

" {

set one_result "$name ($email)"

# Bold search text as you type
set start [string first $search [string tolower $one_result]]
set end [expr $start + [string length $search]]
set one_result_bolded "[string range $one_result 0 [expr $start-1]][string range $one_result [expr $start] $end][string range $one_result [expr $end+1] [expr [string length $one_result] - 1]]"

Hi Eduardo / Hi Ryan:

Finally I could run the smart-search-widget!!! doing the upgrade and install the ajaxhelper package. Thankssss!

Now I need another help: when I write any letter in the box, the result bring me all the word that exist in the table.

I only need that the box go recognizing letter by letter and do a filter, and when I select my choice, this return into the box..

I'm not sure what .js file do this function?

Thanks again.

Hi Eduardo / Ryan:

I found the way to return exactly the letters I write...

How I do to select my choice and return this value into the box?

Hi Lourdes,

I'm glad you got the widget working with ajaxhelper.

Just click on the link and that will select the user and send you to another page.

If you want to change the link, look for it in user.tcl

For different behaviour, read through the ajaxhelper docs and see if you can find what you're looking for there.

Regards.
