I'm using liferay portal for a website. All of my portlets are based on Extjs4 MVC framework. The problem is that when I add multiple Extjs4 based portlets to a page one of them won't load. I experimented with the app.js files of the apps. and found out that when I added the initialization code to one of the portlets all of them starts running.
for example following code works,
Ext.Loader.setPath('Ext', '/loc-treeview-portlet/loc-treeview/ext-4.0/src');
//loader path for the first app
Ext.Loader.setPath('LocTree', '/loc-treeview-portlet/loc-treeview/app');
//loader path for the second app
Ext.Loader.setPath('ServiceTree', '/service-layer-portlet/service-treeview/app');
// Instantiate the apps which I have created by extending Ext.app.Application
Ext.create('LocTree.app.LocTreeApplication');
Ext.create('ServiceTree.app.ServiceTreeApplication');
But I can't do this in the actual portal because it's not known in advance which of the extjs4 apps will be in the page. Does any body have any idea of how to get these apps to work independently?
Perhaps you can extract the Application definition into the page template that way you know there is only one App launch event. Then each portlet is essentially a view with its own controller. You will need to call init() manually on the controllers though.
The problem seems to be that document 'ready' event in ExtJS4 only initializes one app(portlet) in a given page. So what I did was to wrap all the code app.js file in an AUI().ready() call.
AUI().ready(function(){
// all app.js code here
});

I have created a visual web part that has one entry form, it contains 10 textboxes and a submit button to insert the data.
Now on click of submit button it redirects to another page(page is application page deployed under layout folder of same site. this page is added in same web part solution by adding new item).
I'm able to redirect to application page using SPUtility.Redirect(). but not sure about best approach to pass the data from web part page to application.
I think that query string is not a good solution. Also enabling session is manual work on each environment(as i experienced that in one server when i created session variable i got an error to enable it, but in other dev server i was able to do that).
I have done this using a public class in user control .cs page and defined all fields as static variables in side the class. now I'm able to access them in application page added inside layout folder of same project solution. Not sure if it is right approach , but it works
I am getting this error most of the time when I submit my form. I am using Sitefinity 6.2 with ASP.NET MVC 4.0 and JQuery Mobile.
As I have Sitefinity in Hybred mode I am using the #Html.BeginFormSitefinity() command to create the form. On the Controller I have my action with the [HttpPost] attribute. The code always hits my default action on the controller with no problem. No matter what I put in the form when I submit I only get an error message on the page...never hits the HttpPost action.
I've looked around and there are many pages with fixes for the MAC failed issue, but none are working for me. I have a machine key in the web.config and I am NOT going to set enableViewStateMac to false as that is a security hole.
OK I tried working with both of the below solutions but they are both really bad. Here is what I am doing now, which is still not great, but I have Sitefinity, MVC, and JQuery Mobile all on the same page and forms are not giving me View State Exceptions anymore.
First thing is that adding data-ajax="false" is not enough, for this to work you need to disable Ajax before JQuery Mobile starts. So, to do this you need to add in this script BEFORE the JQuery Mobile File loads but after the JQuery file loads.
$(document).bind("mobileinit", function () { $.mobile.ajaxEnabled = false; });
After doing this I then do not use the Sitefinity Begin Form, I just JQuery to change the form on the main page to have the correct action.
<script>
$("#aspnetForm").attr("action", "Home/Login");
</script>
Together this means that there is a complete page load for each page change, and form posts use the form declared in my WebForms Master Page.

Actually...what I have below is not working. What I am
currently doing is really ugly but is usually working.
As long as the user enters the site from the home page then the home
page is the Jquery Mobile first page. The view state errors that I
was getting was because it saw the current page as the first page and
the form submit was to the active page. What if the controller for
the home page was just set to handle ALL HTTPPost calls? I have
removed the #Html.BeginFormSitefinity() from all the views with forms
and am just using the form on my top level masterpage. Then I add in
code on the view to change the action of this form to point to the
main page controller. ex
<script>
$("#aspnetForm").attr("action", "Home/Login");
</script>
Once I made this change the forms are not throwing view state
exceptions...as long as the home page is the Jquery Mobile first page.
If the user comes in from a different page then all is scrambled.
Don't have an answer for that yet.

OK, think I have found it. I read somewhere, lost the link now, a
list of issues that can cause the error message. One of them is the
form being submitted from a different page.
I looked at the error message I was getting with Fiddler and noticed
that the Referer was my home page but the URL of the form post was the
URL for the page with my form. In stead of browsing through my site
to the page with the form I typed the URL in the address bar. I tried
submitting my form again and now it works!
So, this is an issue of Sitefinity and JQuery Mobile fighting it out.
When asp.net MVC is run in Hybred mode in Sitefinity it is actually
run in a Web.Forms master page that contains a form. When you use the
#Html.BeginFormSitefinity() to add a form to the view it is actually
just adding a div and then using AJAX to submit the form on the
Web.Forms master page.
JQuery Mobile loads up the first page that you visit, but later pages
are just injected into the existing page. So, there are multiple
data-role="page" divs loaded up in the DOM, inside of the Sitefinity
Web.Forms Master Page.
This all together is causing the form to post with the URL of the
active data-role="page" but the server sees that it is being refered
from the original page I loaded up. So, if I went to the page with
the form first all would work, start at any other page it does not
work.
Now that I know this I can put in data-ajax="false" on the link to the
page with the form and all looks to be working. This will cause
JQuery Mobile to not inject the target page into the current page but
will load all fresh with the target.
data-ajax="false" is the answer!
I am developing an mvc4 app with multiple spa's.
I am using the hot towel template for my spa.
What I want to do is have a anchor link within my views for a spa go to the index action for another controller, so my users can exit one spa and open another. Not all actions will start a spa some are regular mvc style pages.
I have put code like like the following in my spa html pages:
Navigate to another controller
This will change the url in the browser but always reloads the default html page for the spa. If I hit the refresh button in the browser then if will go to the proper page.
I have been able to put a target on the anchor tag of _parent or _top like:
Navigate to another controller
and it will navigate to the new controller page.
I believe it is something in the durandal framework that is preventing the spa from navigating to the second controller, but since I am just starting to work with this, I am stumped as what I need to change. I think there should be a better way than using the target in the anchor tag, or is that the best option.
I hope that I have understood you correctly. I believe this behaviour is caused my Sammy.js (which the durandal router is currently based on). The default behaviour of Sammy is to hijack all links and process them as regards to the SPA itself.
I didn't like this behaviour for the website I am working on and needed links to other MVC web pages to be possible from within the SPA. What I really wanted is for regular links to just work and hash links to be interpreted as a link to another view within the SPA. So '/controller/action' would go to another web page and '#moduleId' would go to another durandal V/VM.
I found this Sammy option that works for me and set it in my main.js
// This stops Sammy from hijacking regular links
Sammy.Application.prototype.disable_push_state = true;
How can i navigate between different html pages using javascript?
I tried to use the below statement but it's not working. I have added a breakpoint and found that the below statement is executed.But still It doesn't display the page2.html.
WinJS.Navigation.navigate("page2.html", null);
Can anyone tell me why in what all scenarios it won't work ?
One option I found was iframe which I haven't tried yet.
This API isn't a specific page navigator; it's about loading the location as defined by the location service in WinJS:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh452768.aspx has the details on the specifics of using that model.
That stated, if you wish to use the normal Web model of a new page, either a normal link, or setting the window.location to the other page will cause a browser navigate.
In WinJS is it possible to redirect a page once it has been activated by using the share charm?
So my target page is /pages/target/target.html. In the .js I want to do something like;
WinJS.Navigation.navigate("/pages/anotherpage/anotherpage.html");
It doesn't seem to raise an error but it's not navigating away from the target page.
I want to redirect pages based on user input.
This is similar to another question:
How to navigate between different html pages in Windows 8 Metro application using javascript?
However, if you actually are performing a page navigation (e.g. window.location changes), then you're going to have the challenge that the activation info with the share stuff will not be available; your script context is torn down on a page navigation, so you won't be able to hold onto it easily.
