Hello, I would like to format a text field as soon as the onblur event is fired. ( number:XXXXXXXX to XX XX XX XX)
I tried lot of things and I have some questions to improve my wicket knowledge ;-) 0/ First I add a Validator because I want to be sure that my String is formated correctly. 1/ If I add an AjaxEventBehavior on the onblur javascript event => I don't know how to retrieve the field value ? is it possible ? 2/ I swtich to an AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior to start the full form pipeline... Since, the pipeline is : Required check -> Convert input -> validate ->..., I though it will be ok. BUT as Igor said in a previous thread, the convertToObject is not called for String (since we don't have to convert a String to String ;-), well since I understand, in my case it would have been pretty cool) 3/ Finally I move the convert method in the onUpdate of the AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior and it works... =>It means that the Validator is called after the onUpdate ? 4/ finally, last question. When we have to format String dynamicaly which is the best way ? a) using the AjaxFormComponentUpdatingBehavior and adding the convert inside the onUpdate b) Simply using jQuery ? thanks for answers in the sunny monday in France !
