Users - is it possible to do this?

Hello all,
In case to update a DB table entry, the easiest way is using "FORM" widget and "auto-attribute" from this entity. But now I want that which field to show up and update-able will up to another list, this second list is dynamically created, contains all or part of the fields in first entity. Is there an easy way to do this in "FORM" widget? Thanks Hao _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.ofbiz.org/mailman/listinfo/users |

is there something I don't know about for this.
to make a Multipart form, like the Swing forms, I figured I would make indiviual screens for each function. then wrap them in a Box and use CSS to make them look like they are one screen. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.ofbiz.org/mailman/listinfo/users |

Right now there is no way to change drop down menus on the fly, but we have done this sort of thing with lookup screens (which are popup windows that result in another server request, thus being able to get more data from the database given another form field value as a parameter). -David Hao Jiang wrote: > Hello all, > > In case to update a DB table entry, the easiest way is using "FORM" > widget and "auto-attribute" from this entity.

Change the drop down menus on the fly is the thing I tried before, I
think it can be done by using beanshell and form widget in screen widget, that is, retrieve the list in beanshell, with any kind of conditions you want, then put this list in context, and in form widget, the drop down field using this list as selectable values. What I want is to decide which fields will be visible. In form widget when use auto attributes from an entity, usually all the attributes of this table will be on the screen, and use <hidden/> tag on a field can hide it. Now I don't know one field is visible or not in advance, it depends on another list. Can I do this? Thanks Hao On Wed, 2006-03-22 at 01:03 -0700, David E.

Hi Hao,
yes you can do this. Simply do not use the auto-attribute element and just put field definitions in the form for the fields that you want to display from the list.

Thanks Jacopo,
It seems no easy way to do this What I want is, for example a table "ProductPrice" like this productId price1 price2 price3 1 1.00 1.00 1.00 2 2.00 2.00 2.00 Another table "T2" like this productId priceField 1 price1 1 price2 2 price3 Before I can update the prices of one product, I should look at the "T2" table first, in this case, for product1, only price1 and price2 are update-able, and for product2 only the price3 The reason I want to use "auto-fields-entity" of "ProductPrice" entity is because 1, I want old value to display 2. I want to use the data type of each fields in "ProductPrice" entity, that will be easy for me to do some error check Regards Hao On Wed, 2006-03-22 at 18:16 +0100, Jacopo Cappellato wrote: > Hi Hao, > > yes you can do this. > Simply do not use the auto-attribute element and just put field > definitions in the form for the fields that you want to display from the > list. > > Jacopo > > Hao Jiang wrote: > > Change the drop down menus on the fly is the thing I tried before, I > > think it can be done by using beanshell and form widget in screen > > widget, that is, retrieve the list in beanshell, with any kind of > > conditions you want, then put this list in context, and in form widget, > > the drop down field using this list as selectable values. > > > > What I want is to decide which fields will be visible.
