Using OpenLog for logging/ debugging XPages – Kwintessential Notes
By Patrick Kwinten | 10/3/23 2:09 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Roberto Boccadoro
Today I opened a database where a developer insists on writing almost all code in SSJS. A bit odd because OpenNTF Domino API is enabled and used in this particular application. I guess JAVA is still frightening. But because of SSJS you get unexpected behaviour which are difficult to catch in OpenLog.
XPages hack – visualizing checkboxes that fail validation
By Patrick Kwinten | 5/6/22 12:31 PM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Oliver Busse
In an application I have added some CSS to highlight fields that fail validation. The css looks as followed:
Basically I an looking for the aria-invalid=true attribute on input elements. Works great but not on all input elements. For example re-styling of checkboxes requires some work. But what if you would re-style the element that contains the checkbox?
Sticky headers in Bootstrap from ExtLib
By Patrick Kwinten | 9/17/21 9:07 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Patrick Kwintensson
I received a request from a customer who would like to preserve the action buttons on an XPage when the user scrolls downs a very long form. The application is already using the BS theme from the Extension Library with the sticky navbar option in use so this would implement a second 'sticky element'.
Fixing the Tooltip function in XPages #2
By Patrick Kwinten | 4/15/21 5:21 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Roberto Boccadoro
In a previous post I wrote about the disfunction of the tooltip after validation with the Domino server. It turns out my gigia-form has a lot of fields with visibility properties set that are calculated after partial refresh. To have tooltip fixed for the fields that become visible during interaction with the user I needed to apply another patch.
Fixing the Tooltip function in XPages
By Patrick Kwinten | 4/14/21 5:09 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Andi Kress
A colleague noticed that the tooltip function on a Xpage stopped working after submitting the page to the server and when the validation did not pass. The same behavior occurred when I added a computed text control that would spit out an anchor reference using a tooltip. Odd.
TestiNG XPages
By Patrick Kwinten | 3/30/21 5:14 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Oliver Busse
A while ago I started my journey into testing applications. Like most people I started with Selenium IDE since it’s free, easy to install and setup. The idea was to record the workflow in an application and play it back after the development of every new feauture.
Adding a GDPR message to my XPages app
By Patrick Kwinten | 5/21/20 1:10 AM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Roberto Boccadoro
GDPR or Cookies plugins are nothing new. A simple search will give you a quick overview which jQuery based plugins are available. So I decided the one that looked nicest to me and implemented it my XPages app. It worked but not when I met a user who was using IE. No JS error or whatever so where to start debugging?
Data for Bootstrap Treeview from a Notes View?
By Patrick Kwinten | 1/10/20 12:18 PM | Development - Notes / Domino | Added by Oliver Busse
In a modernization project (increase of browser compatibility) I needed to find a solution for a list of links, categorized and sorted like a Notes View.
Since I already use Bootstrap as CSS framework I decided to check the following Bootstrap Treeview project
