hi,

is this possible to have a xpage with control on it, define document on xpage and reference this data from the control?

thanks in advance.

Subject: Yes and there are a number of ways to do this…

One way you could use is with .getComponent() as in…

<xp:inputText id="inputText1"></xp:inputText>

<xp:button value="Submit" id="button1">

	<xp:eventHandler event="onclick" submit="true"

		refreshMode="complete" immediate="false" save="true"></xp:eventHandler>

</xp:button>

<xp:br></xp:br>

<xp:text escape="true" id="computedField2">

	<xp:this.value><![CDATA[#{javascript:getComponent("inputText1").getValue()}]]></xp:this.value>

</xp:text>

Where we can use ‘getComponent(“inputText1”).getValue()’ to get the value of the edit box ‘inputText1’ control.

Is that what you have in mind or is there some other scenario?

Subject: share the same document

I’d like to have number of controls on the same xpage that share the same document. With as small of extra code as possible…

So I’d probably use the same data source on each control but on the xpage I would have only one document shared between those controls.

Thanks in advance for your reply.

Subject: Set the data source on the xpage

You can set a single datasource on the XPage and it is available to all the controls on that XPage. You’ll have to bind those controls to a datasource but you don’t have to redefine the datasource each time.

You can try a simple example by creating an XPage, adding a datasource, then add an input control and bind that control to the datasource and a relevant field.

Also, look at your source code. It’ll explain alot about what’s going on.
