use checkbox Display Tag in Struts - struts

A list is passed to the display:table. In the table i need to have a checkbox column to select/deselect any transactions that are selected. How do i associate the checked item with the transaction. Also i need to pass this checked transaction to a java script.
Thanks
Jsp code:
<display:column title="<input type='checkbox' name='selectall' onClick='selectAll()' />" media="html">
<input type="checkbox" name="selectBox" class="selectableCheckbox" id="selectBox" value="${sample.txniD}"></>
</display:column>
<display:column property="txniD" sortable="true" scope="all" title="Transaction ID %>" />

Try alerting the value of the checkbox, alert(checkboxArray[i].value);, not toString.

Element not visible, selenium

I am trying to login to a site.
This is the problematic html part:
<input name="pass" id="vic_login_password" autocomplete="off" class="inpHM3_2" dir="ltr" type="password" value="" id="PasswprdH1" /><input type="text" value="Password" onfocus="this.style.display='none'; gid('vic_login_password').style.display='block'; gid('vic_login_password').focus();" class="inpHM3_3" />
My code:
driver.findElementById("vic_login_password").SendKeys "fakepass"
I get an error no -2146233088 saying that element is not visible.
For the user name everything works fine this way, but for the password I always get this error.
The key to solve the problem is inside that onfocus() event handler:
onfocus="this.style.display='none'; gid('vic_login_password').style.display='block'; gid('vic_login_password').focus();"
It is actually making one input invisible and the other one visible. The other one is the input with id="vic_login_password" which is initially invisible. This explains the error you've got.
In your code, you should first focus the visible input and only then send keys to the other one:
driver.findElementByCssSelector("input[value=Password][onfocus]").Click
driver.findElementById("vic_login_password").SendKeys "fakepass"

TestStack.Seleno TickCheckbox not working

I have 2 forms that I am testing using TestStack.Seleno. Both forms have a checkbox that is mandatory. The first form has (including the checkbox) 5 fields. I can use TestStack.Seleno to create a passing test with valid data. I set the checkbox like this:
Input.TickCheckbox(f=>f.Accept,form.Accept);
On my other form which has 10 or so fields, when I try to set the checkbox to be ticked (using the same code) nothing happens. However when I try
var acceptCheckBox = Find.Element(By.Name("Accept"),new TimeSpan(0,0,0,50));
if (form.Accept)
{
acceptCheckBox.Click();
}
I get error "Element is not currently visible and so may not be interacted with"
Element is clearly visible and is not injected in using javascript.
I am using latest version of TestStack.Seleno from github.
Any ideas?
So I have managed to figure out what the issue is and have a work around, however I cannot explain why it works on the other form. The mandatory Accept field has html generated by mvc that looks like
<div>
<input class="check-box" data-val="true" data-val-mustbetrue="The Accept our field is required" data-val-required="The Accept our field is required." id="Accept" name="Accept" type="checkbox" value="true"><input name="Accept" type="hidden" value="false">
<label for="Accept">
Accept our Please accept our Terms and Conditions
</label>
<span class="field-validation-valid" data-valmsg-for="Accept" data-valmsg-replace="true"></span>
</div>
So you have the checkbox and hidden field both with id Accept, I suspect in code seleno is picking up the hidden field and setting value, so I updated my code todo
var acceptCheckBox = Find.Element(By.CssSelector("#Accept.check-box"));
acceptCheckBox.Click();
Now everything works.

Input hidden is built without value

Weird this one.
On my .NET MVC 4 project I've added a file on App_Code who contains this method:
#helper CheckBox(string name, bool isChecked = false, string className = "") {
<div class="checkboxHolder">
<input id="#name" name="#name" type="hidden" value="#isChecked") />
<i class="#className checkboxBts fa #((isChecked) ? "fa-check-square-o" : "fa-square-o")" data-checkbox-associated="#name"></i>
</div>
}
I'm using it to style checkboxes using font-awesome, so my app checkboxes are made of an input type hidden who stores a boolean value and an icon to give feedback to users.
Weird thing is, on executing when isChecked == false, the hidden returned by this method is like:
<input id="myCheckboxId" name="myCheckboxId" type="hidden" />
There is no value at all, when I try to save it to the model an exception is thrown saying that model cannot be saved.
I've fixed it changing the method to use:
<input id="#name" name="#name" type="hidden" #((isChecked) ? "value=true" : "value=false") />
Which is working fine. However, I wonder if anyone know what could be happening on the original output.
Thank you all.
It's not entirely a duplicate, but this is answered in Why is my hidden input writing: value=“value” instead of true/false?:
if you have:
<input name="somefield" type="hidden" someprop="#(SomeBooleanExpression)"/>
[and #SomeBooleanExpression] is false it is omitted completely:
<input name="somefield" type="hidden"/>
To get around this, consider .ToString()
So, use:
<input id="#name" name="#name" type="hidden" value="value="#(isChecked.ToString())" />

MonoRail CheckboxList?

I'm trying to use a Checkboxlist in MonoRail to represent a many to many table relationship. There is a Special table, SpecialTag table, and then a SpecialTagging table which is the many to many mapping table between Special and SpecialTag.
Here is an excerpt from the Special model class:
[HasAndBelongsToMany(typeof(SpecialTag),
Table = "SpecialTagging", ColumnKey = "SpecialId", ColumnRef = "SpecialTagId")]
public IList<SpecialTag> Tags { get; set; }
And then in my add/edit special view:
$Form.LabelFor("special.Tags", "Tags")<br/>
#set($items = $FormHelper.CreateCheckboxList("special.Tags", $specialTags))
#foreach($specialTag in $items)
$items.Item("$specialTag.Id") $Form.LabelFor("$specialTag.Id", $specialTag.Name)
#end
The checkboxlist renders correctly, but if I select some and then click Save, it doesn't save the special/tag associations to the SpecialTagging table (the entity passed to the Save controller action has an empty Tags list.) One thing I noticed was that the name and value attributes on the checkboxes are funky:
<label for="special_Tags">Tags</label><br>
<input id="3" name="special.Tags[0]" value="UCampus.Core.Models.SpecialTag" type="checkbox"> <label for="3">Buy 1 Get 1 Free</label>
<input id="1" name="special.Tags[1]" value="UCampus.Core.Models.SpecialTag" type="checkbox"> <label for="1">Free</label>
<input id="2" name="special.Tags[2]" value="UCampus.Core.Models.SpecialTag" type="checkbox"> <label for="2">Half Price</label>
<input id="5" name="special.Tags[3]" value="UCampus.Core.Models.SpecialTag" type="checkbox"> <label for="5">Live Music</label>
<input id="4" name="special.Tags[4]" value="UCampus.Core.Models.SpecialTag" type="checkbox"> <label for="4">Outdoor Seating</label>
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

The checkboxlist renders correctly
it seems to me that you could also render something like
<input type="checkbox" name="special.Tags" value="1"/>
<input type="checkbox" name="special.Tags" value="2"/>
which make it simpler (no index to output for the name, it will be properly resolved as an array via controller action parameter binding
also, in your sample, the fact that all checkboxes having the same value UCampus.Core.Models.SpecialTag is probably not right, you may want to output actual primary key identifier from the tags (not sure, could you display the class you are binding back on the form handling action?)
I was able to get it working by specifying the id and text attributes...
$Form.LabelFor("special.Tags", "Tags")<br/>
#set($items = $FormHelper.CreateCheckboxList("special.Tags", $specialTags, "%{value='Id', text='Name'}"))
#foreach($specialTag in $items)
$items.Item("$specialTag.Id") $Form.LabelFor("$specialTag.Id", $specialTag.Name)
#end

MySQL query using multiple criteria from checkboxes

I would like to do a multiple search query usig multiple checkboxes which represent particular textboxes.
How do i create a mysql query which will be filtering the checked and unchecked checkboxes (probably using if statements)?
The query should be able to filter the checked and ucnchecked boxes and query them using the AND condition.
Thanks
Mysql won't be able to handle your html form post. You will need to use a server-side language to check for those checkboxes being set and then modify your query with additional conditions.
You would likely get a better response if you were more specific, but I'll throw you an example with php. Assuming your form looks something like:
<form method="post">
<input type="checkbox" name="field1_cb" value="1" />
<input type="text" name="field1_txt" />
<br /><br />
<input type="checkbox" name="field2_cb" value="1" />
<input type="text" name="field2_txt" />
</form>
Your server code might look something like:
$query = "SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE field0 = 'asdf' ";
$fields = array('field1','field2');
foreach($fields as $f){
if(isset($_POST[$f.'_cb'])){
$query .= " AND $f = ".$_POST[$f.'_txt'];
}
}
//Run your query...
Please don't copy and paste this code directly, it is disgustingly insecure. Just trying to get you started.
