[Lift] Lift Jquery autocomplete
Is there a reason why the JQuery autocomplete is not a Lift widget but instead it lives in http/jquery package? .. I remember a long time ago me putting it in the jquery package to separate SHtml stuff that is dependent on JQuery to the others. Thoughts?

[Lift] Fading out notices
Hi there,
I just committed a simple support to fade out notices. For instance
sometimes we just want to render a notice somewhere in the page but we
want it to disappear after a few seconds. Say we have a form that
saves a record and then was want to say to the user that the item was
saved and we want this message to vanish after a little while.
This code is dependent on JQuery hence we have 3 functions in
net.liftweb.http.jquery.JqSHtml
A few examples:
fadeOutErrors(5 seconds, 1 second)
fadeOutWarnings(5 seconds, 1 second)
fadeOutNotices(5 seconds, 1 second)
All these functions return a JsCmd. This means that you can use this
as well for Ajax Comet. But for Non Ajax here is a dummy example:
Assume a simple snippet:
def howdy = {
S.error(howdy error)
spanHello there/span ++
head{Script(OnLoad(fadeOutErrors(5 seconds, 1 second)))}
/head
}
So we set an error, return whatever the snippet returns (in this case
a simple span) and then concatenate the head tag where on load tell
lift to hide all errors after 5 seconds and the fade out time to be 1
second.
Br's,
Marius

[Lift] Re: date management
I now have the due date arriving OK from the jQuery datepicker, and I
cobbled together some ugliness to give days left until the ToDo due
date, so that is good.
My problem now is since we are not using the 'magic' of the _toForm
methods for the form elements, I have to set each var value for the
model field from the input SHtml data, as was done in the PocketChange
app AddEntry.scala file.
What is happening is that the initialization for each var is resetting
the form if validation fails, so I guess I need to institute some
RequestVars to remember the form values for resubmission, right?
All my questions will take take the form of 'how to' recipes of
foundational webapp elements, as you can see. My plan is to develop
them for a 'cookbook' section of the wiki, so that's why I am asking
one simple conceptual thing at a time.
Therefore, what I have to learn now is all about form binding and
recalling form value state if validation fails, so please break that
down for me.
Thanks as always!

Very good!
I did a little homework, rearranged some things, and am getting some
nice results with the 'manual method'...
Since I am following the PocketChange app now rather than the ToDo
example, there is no 'todo' val in scope to bind, so the
todo.priority.toForm method will not work.
I have SHtml.select working with a mapping for my choices, and I can
use Empty for my default, but how do I get a Box[2] as my default?

The only issue I would mention is that there's currently an open ticket
because MappedDateTime won't save the time portion when you use Derby. I
haven't had time to triage this yet.

Greg,
I dont really use toForm; have you explored doing it manually? It
seems like that would be able to tell you if there is a problem with
toForm on MappedDateTime.
I use mapped date time quite a bit and have no problems at all
persisting the dates :-)
Cheers, Tim

I have many more questions saved up, but would like to clear each out
before starting a new one.
Thanks again!

As I proceed to enhance the ToDo example, I have added a new field
to
the ToDo.scala model:
object dueOn extends MappedDateTime(this) {
final val dateFormat = DateFormat.getDateInstance
(DateFormat.SHORT)
override def asHtml = Text(dateFormat.format(is))}
Next, I added a binding in the TD.scala snippet within the add
method
of the TD class:
def doBind(form: NodeSeq) = {
bind(todo, form, desc - todo.desc.toForm,
priority - todo.priority.toForm,
dueOn - todo.dueOn.toForm,
submit - submit(create new Task,
checkAndSave)}
Then, the todo.html template gets a bind point:
lift:TD.add form=post
...
todo:dueOn/
todo:submitbutton//todo:submit
/lift:TD.add
When I check the database, the record does save, and all the other
fields are OK, but the date itself is null.
Somehow, it seems the text of the input field is not getting
changed
into a Date object for the database to handle, right?
When I look at the PocketChange app from the book, everything is
done
completely differently from the ToDo example (no use of _toForm,
for
instance).
I know dates and times are convoluted in Java, so what am I
missing?
Thanks!

Hi, It's a bug, I'll try to add a test case. (you could open issue at http://github.com/davidB/vscaladoc/issues) From the source code of the page the doc is present. I suggest you remove the p tag from the comment (at least the first pair). a side note. you could have colorized code if you use pre name=code class=scala or textarea name=code class=scala instead of simple pre /davidB PS: I'm was off-line several days.

Lift is 2.7.4. We have not upgraded to 2.7.5 as the delta is actor fixes in response to lift-related tickets that we solved with our own actor impl.
