NotesIn9: 046 Building Forms with XPages and Extension Library

The NotesIn9 100,000 Celebration continues! Last week saw three new shows and I also recorded an X-Cast Podcast due out soon. I have 2 more shows coming to cap off this huge milestone.

In this show I take a brief look at a couple of different topics. First I talk about the Extension Library and the Upgrade Pack and what I personally perceive to be differences betwen the two.

Then for the Demo, I talk about several different ext. library controls. The focus is on Field Layout Controls like “Form Table”, “Form Layout Row”, and “Form Layout Column”. But to get to that point I first touch on the App Layout control and the Navigator. I hope you like it.

For more information on App Layout control Steve Pridemore did a great show on it in episode 42.

NotesIn9: 045 XPages: Tracking File Downloads

In this episode I take a look at how you can use an XAgent to track any file this is downloaded or link that is clicked on your website.
At one Point in the show I mention “Thomas Bahn” and that should have been “Thomas Gumz”. Sorry for the mix up!  

Prior to the Demo there’s an important service message for the Kennedy Kreiger Institute.  They are directly involved in crucial care for Matt Reimer as discussed in a post by Rob Novak.  The program that benefits Matt is having it’s funding significantly reduced. Here is an article about Matt and the funding issue.

I would only ask that if NotesIn9 has ever benefitted you, maybe you would consider donating to this worthy cause.

The website is: http://helpkids.kennedykrieger.org
To donate be sure to select Other in the Fund Designation section and enter “ALD Research”
To contribute by mail, make checks to Kennedy Krieger Foundation, 707 N Broadway, Baltimore, MD 21205-9851. Memo: “ALD Research”

Thank you for the consideration!

NotesIn9: 040 Automated XPages Testing

In this show, John Jardin comes on to demonstrate Selenium, from http://seleniumhq.org/, which is a FireFox plugin that lets you automate testing of websites.  This looks really cool!  You can record tests and re-run them later.  So if you make changes you can catch regression bugs and such.

This show is not to be missed for XPages Developers.

NotesIn9 Extended Edition 11: XPages SplitScreen – View and Document

In this show I take a question from a viewer who asked how you could have a view on the right, click on a document and be able to edit it on the left. I’ll demonstrate that by using a Repeat Control since I don’t like View Controls that much.

There’s quite a bit in here for the beginner. I create a repeat control, bind to a foreign database, control rendering of the document section, use simple actions and SSJS and even show the world how bad I am with CSS. 🙂

The viewer also wanted to be able to create NEW documents, but I’ll save that bit for a future show.

Hope you like it.
