Dynamic action firing on tabular form pagaination click...

TexasApexDeveloperMar 19 2014 — edited Mar 19 2014

Anyone have an idea of how to have a dynamic action fire on the click of a tabular form's pagination control?  I am looking at trying to catch this occurrence to save data to a collection when a user paginates to a new page so they don't have to do constant saves to the database until they really want to save and exit a form..

Thank you,

Hi Tony,

I think you can do a selector like ".pagination a" if you only have pagination links and ".pagination select" if you have a drop down.

Personally I would probably save to the collection on field changes.  I think it would be a tad easier and better performance even though there would be a lot of chatter back and forth.

Thanks

Jorge,

  Glad to hear from you... In regards to this, I coded up a simple dynamic action to try and display an alert when the tabular form pagination control is clicked...

Event: Click

Selection Type: jQuery Selector

jQuery Selector: $(".pagination select")

Alert does not fire....

Thank you,

Tony, couple of things.

Since you used a Dynamic action the jQuery Selector should simply be:

.pagination select

Because the $() will be added by the DA.

Also, for the anchors/links you need a click, but for the select you need a "Change" event I think.

Thanks

PS.  if it still doesn't fire... then make sure your template is adding all the pagination stuff with a class of pagination.  It could be using something different.

Changed the selector, and it does allow me to attach to the click..

I MIGHT have lucked out since the client LOVES Excel, they might want to just display all rows instead of doing pagination, depends on the # of rows...

I am REALLY looking forward to APEX 5.1 now....

Thank you,
