One of the neat things about Ajax is simplification of the UI. If you tried the
demo, I merged the two input boxes into "Accounts or Leads" to allow lookup on
both. The result is so cool that I keep playing with the possibilities instead
of writing the howto of it.

I think it is, but can't remember for sure...

We thought it was good to integrate something called prototype.js
which is pretty lightweight and saves us from writing the ajax stuff.
You can take a look at it yourself:
demo - http://demo.opentaps.org:8086/crmsfa/control/main - login as
"DemoSalesManager/crmsfa" and go to "Opportunities" The create
opportunity box uses ajax to complete the account name

Hi all
I just read this post,
having worked quite a bit with ajax ,
it can get a bit chaotic if a choice has to be made amongst all
available
scripts and ajax base codes.
They have great features but the hard part can be making the choice (
openrico.org or http://www.zkoss.org/ are also interesting )
But ajax being so simple to set up, it would be simplest to set up
ofbiz's
own ajax.js.
After that Ajax calls work perfectly with ofbiz's REST url's,
screen widget
.
example of where ajax came in handy for us :
- retreiving event or error messages from session attributes as
asynchronous
services were launched.
- autocompletion
- databse updates
my two cents

Prototype. This will be explained in the document. :)
It might be a good exercise to attempt the same feature in other
frameworks.
I've already tried with Dojo and some others, of which the
impression are
explained in the tutorial.

Great Idea. Our document is crmsfa based because we're

it and
have a live demo. The css and javascript libraries are in place.
However, it

I hope the dust settles in AJAX, but I bet there will be several
different
mainstream approaches, just like there are several different
scripting
languages
that fill the scripting niche. We're going to have to settle
for one,
just like
we settled on freemarker and bsh. :-)

Given the somewhat chaotic nature of the AJAX world, it might

That worked! I can get userLogin now but LocalDispatcher with
dispatcher
attribute is still null. That is not a big deal as I get the
LocalDispatcher
this way -
LocalDispatcher dispatcher =
GenericDispatcher.getLocalDispatcher("local",
delegator);
Thanks for all the help,

try
req.open("POST", "/erp/control/dyna", true);
the call has to start from the base.
here's mine

Amit,
What URL are you requesting? The app server doesn't know the
difference
between plain browser requests and ajax requests. It's just a
matter of
URL construction.

Subject: AJAX and HttpSession
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has played with AJAX. I
want to
call a
OFBiz service by making an XMLHttpRequest. I have a
RequestHandler
that
is supposed to process this request. The problem I am
facing is of
HttpSession.
Even though I am logged in, I get userLogin, dispatcher and
delegator
attributes null. Is there a way where we can get our
HttpSession
attributes from XMLHttpRequest. Do we need to do any
special thing
or is
this just a limitation?
Without a valid HttpSession, I obviously cant run the
service
unless I pass userLoginId in the XMLHttpRequest and get
UserLogin
value
through delegator.
This approach will pose a security hazard nonetheless.
Any insight will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Amit Shinde
