Inline Javascript.

Posted by Community Admin on 11-Jan-2011 00:00

Hello,

Im trying to insert javascript in a template that gets the latest news of the company from another site. I am able to do this easily through the css widget, but I have to include the javascript in the middle of a content block because of css issues. (unless there is a way to set a wrapper class for the javascript widget??) When I try to insert the script on the html, it gets erased once I press ok or switch between source/design. Is there a way to do this?? I saw some other threads that mentioned to set to "true" allowscripts and contentfilters to "none" but I cant find these properties or the files (ControlTemplates) anywhere.. which brings me to another question... when I click on "Edit on visual studio" VS pulls up the solution, but all the default.ascx files are completely empty although I have three published pages and a template throught the sitefinity UI. So whenever I see some solutions on the threads that require editing the project on VS, Im not really sure what to edit. (Im probably looking at the wrong place or something :/ ).

Thanks for your time!

Hello John,

You can map the ContentBlockDesigner

2. Add the following

in the ascx

<%@ Control Language="C#" %>

<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Sitefinity" Namespace="Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI" TagPrefix="sf" %>

<%@ Register Assembly="Telerik.Sitefinity" Namespace="Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.Fields" TagPrefix="sf" %>

<sf:ResourceLinks id="resourcesLinks" runat="server">

<sf:ResourceFile Name="Styles/Window.css" />

</sf:ResourceLinks>

<sf:FormManager ID="formManager" runat="server" />

<div style="width: 660px; overflow: hidden;">

<sf:HtmlField

ID="htmlEditor"

runat="server"

Width="99%"

Height="370px"

EditorContentFilters="DefaultFilters"

EditorStripFormattingOptions="MSWord,Css,Font,Span,ConvertWordLists"

DisplayMode="Write"

FixCursorIssue="True">

</sf:HtmlField>

</div>

<script type="text/javascript">

$("body").addClass("sfContentBlockDesigner");

</script>

Change EditorContentFilters. Then you can set the ContentFilters you want to have.

All the best,

Hi Ivan,

I want to use the ContentBlock in my custom control designer to set a string property in a custom widget (created as a usercontrol). I have successfully hooked up everithing and it is showing content block editor when i go to the edit view of the control. Now the chellenge I have is to get the entered content and and set it to the property in the widget. The following two functions in the designer.js fails when loading or saved.

Previously I used RadEditor instead and these functions worked without any trouble. Can you tell me what i need to do inorder to read/set the content input from the custom control designer?

//refreshes the UI overrides the base interface

refreshUI: function ()

this._refreshMode = true;

var data = this.get_controlData();

this.get_contentBlockControlTop().set_html(data.ContentTop)

,

// forces the designer to apply the changes on UI to the cotnrol Data buth

applyChanges: function ()

var data = this.get_controlData();

data.ContentTop = this.get_contentBlockControlTop().get_html();

Thanks!
Duneel

Hello,

I solved the above problem by changing the set_html() and get_html() to as follows...

//refreshes the UI overrides the base interface

refreshUI: function ()

this._refreshMode = true;

var data = this.get_controlData();

this.get_contentBlockControlTop()._setEditorHtml(data.ContentTop);

,

// forces the designer to apply the changes on UI to the cotnrol Data buth

applyChanges: function ()

var data = this.get_controlData();

data.ContentTop = this.get_contentBlockControlTop().get_value();

Thanks!

Hey I'm having the same problems and the one thing im missing from this is:

this.get_contentBlockControlTop()

Can you share the markup for that function?

Hi Jerami,

Here is the complete client-side code I'm having.

Type.registerNamespace("Samples.ControlDesigners.CertifiedAgents");

Samples.ControlDesigners.CertifiedAgents.CertifiedAgentsDesigner = function (element)

// Elements

this._contentBlockControlTop = null;

this._contentBlockControlBottom = null;

Samples.ControlDesigners.CertifiedAgents.CertifiedAgentsDesigner.initializeBase(this, [element]);

Samples.ControlDesigners.CertifiedAgents.CertifiedAgentsDesigner.prototype =

initialize: function ()

Samples.ControlDesigners.CertifiedAgents.CertifiedAgentsDesigner.callBaseMethod(this, 'initialize');

,

dispose: function ()

Samples.ControlDesigners.CertifiedAgents.CertifiedAgentsDesigner.callBaseMethod(this, 'dispose');

,

// Top Content

get_contentBlockControlTop: function ()

return this._contentBlockControlTop;

,

set_contentBlockControlTop: function (value)

this._contentBlockControlTop = value;

,

// Bottom Content

get_contentBlockControlBottom: function ()

return this._contentBlockControlBottom;

,

set_contentBlockControlBottom: function (value)

this._contentBlockControlBottom = value;

,

/* ----------------------------- Public Mthods ----------------------------- */

// Refreshes the UI overrides the base interface

refreshUI: function ()

this._refreshMode = true;

var data = this.get_controlData();

// set values....

if (data.DetailsPageURL != null)

$("#DetailsPageURL").val(data.DetailsPageURL);

this.get_contentBlockControlTop()._setEditorHtml(data.ContentTop);

this.get_contentBlockControlBottom()._setEditorHtml(data.ContentBottom);

,

// Forces the designer to apply the changes on UI to the cotnrol Data buth

applyChanges: function ()

var data = this.get_controlData();

// Get values....

data.DetailsPageURL = $("#DetailsPageURL").val();

data.ContentTop = this.get_contentBlockControlTop().get_value();

data.ContentBottom = this.get_contentBlockControlBottom().get_value();

Samples.ControlDesigners.CertifiedAgents.CertifiedAgentsDesigner.registerClass('Samples.ControlDesigners.CertifiedAgents.CertifiedAgentsDesigner', Telerik.Sitefinity.Web.UI.ControlDesign.ControlDesignerBase);

if (typeof (Sys) !== 'undefined') Sys.Application.notifyScriptLoaded();

And in the designer you need to register the ID's for the content controls as follows.

/// <summary>

/// Gets script descriptors.

/// </summary>

/// <returns>ScriptDescriptor.</returns>

public override IEnumerable<ScriptDescriptor> GetScriptDescriptors()

var scriptDescriptors = new List<ScriptDescriptor>(base.GetScriptDescriptors());

var desc = (ScriptControlDescriptor)scriptDescriptors.Last();

var contentBlockControlTop = this.ContentBlockTop;

var contentBlockControlBottom = this.ContentBlockBottom;

desc.AddComponentProperty("contentBlockControlTop", contentBlockControlTop.ClientID);

desc.AddComponentProperty("contentBlockControlBottom", contentBlockControlBottom.ClientID);

return scriptDescriptors.ToArray();

/// <summary>

/// Gets the top content block control instance.

/// </summary>

protected virtual HtmlField ContentBlockTop

get

return this.Container.GetControl<HtmlField>("htmlEditorTop", true);

/// <summary>

/// Gets the bottom content block control instance.

/// </summary>

protected virtual HtmlField ContentBlockBottom

get

return this.Container.GetControl<HtmlField>("htmlEditorBottom", true);

Let me know If you have any other questions,

Cheers!

Thanks I got it working now...i was missing the GetScriptDescriptors() method.

public override IEnumerable<ScriptDescriptor> GetScriptDescriptors()

Hi Duneel,

Your code has been very helpful. Could you answer two questions for me?

1. What do ContentTop and ContentBottom correspond to? I tried switching this for the ID of the HtmlField in my designer template, the control name, and anything else I can think of, and nothing worked.

2. The line below threw an error... is it correct?

var desc = (ScriptControlDescriptor)scriptDescriptors.Last();

Thanks!

Hi Michael,

ContentBlockTop and ContentBlockBottom corresponds to two HTMLField controls available in my designer template (.ascx). In designer.cs file I need to register the ClientIDs of the two controls so they are available to the javascript file.

This is what I have in my designer.cs file for the two fields.

/// <summary>

/// Gets the top content block control instance.

/// </summary>

protected virtual HtmlField ContentBlockTop

get

return this.Container.GetControl<HtmlField>("htmlEditorTop", true);

/// <summary>

/// Gets the bottom content block control instance.

/// </summary>

protected virtual HtmlField ContentBlockBottom

get

return this.Container.GetControl<HtmlField>("htmlEditorBottom", true);

/// <summary>

/// Gets script descriptors.

/// </summary>

/// <returns>ScriptDescriptor.</returns>

public override IEnumerable<ScriptDescriptor> GetScriptDescriptors()

var scriptDescriptors = new List<ScriptDescriptor>(base.GetScriptDescriptors());

var desc = (ScriptControlDescriptor)scriptDescriptors.Last();

var contentBlockControlTop = this.ContentBlockTop;

var contentBlockControlBottom = this.ContentBlockBottom;

desc.AddComponentProperty("contentBlockControlTop", contentBlockControlTop.ClientID);

desc.AddComponentProperty("contentBlockControlBottom", contentBlockControlBottom.ClientID);

return scriptDescriptors.ToArray();

Cheers,
Duneel
