[CLOSED] How to simulate button click or call Direct Event with Extra Parameter from JS?

[Leonid_Veriga]

Hi All,
I have a button on my page:

		<ext:Button ID="SaveChanges" runat="server" Text="Save and Close">
			<DirectEvents>
				<Click OnEvent="Save" >
					<ExtraParams>
						<ext:Parameter Name="MyParam" Mode="Raw" Value="Ext.encode(#{Store}.getRecordsValues())"></ext:Parameter>
					</ExtraParams>
				</Click>
			</DirectEvents>
		</ext:Button>

I need to simulate its Click from JavaScript.
Is it possible to just simulate it (it would be better), or I have to call Ext.net.DirectEvent.confirmRequest?
(It works, but I didn't found how to pass extra parameters to this method).

Hi,

Please use 'fireEvent' method

SaveChanges.fireEvent("click");

Thanks!
That's exactly what I need.

I get a cyclic reference when i try this - got a solution off the top of your head? Basically, I need to implement an asynchronous solution here - you can see i tried firing the directEvent in javascript but that wasn't working, then i looked at your solution and it just keeps prompting to confirm/deny when i do it this way. I know why it's doing it, but i think if i do chk.un("Check") it's not going to solve my problem either....i guess i just need a second pair of eyes.

                            <ext:CheckBox ID="chk1" runat="server" ViewMode="Edit">
                                <Listeners>
                                    <Check Handler="if(this.checked){confirmOrDeny(this); return false;}" />
                                </Listeners>
                                <DirectEvents>
                                    <Check OnEvent="chk1_Checked"/>
                                </DirectEvents>
                            </ext:CheckBox>

        function fireOverwriteEvent(btn, a, b, chk) {
            if (btn == 'yes') {
				/*
				Ext.net.DirectEvent.confirmRequest({
					control: chk,
					action: 'Check'	
				});
				*/
				chk.fireEvent('Check');
			}
        }
        function confirmOrDeny(chk) {
            
            var title =  "Please confirm";
            var message ="Are you sure?";

            var btn = Ext.Msg.show({
                title: title,
                msg: message,
                buttons: Ext.Msg.YESNO,
                fn: this.fireOverwriteEvent.createDelegate(this, [chk], true),
                animEl: 'elId',
                icon: Ext.MessageBox.QUESTION
            });
        }

Hi @ecko,

I'm afraid I've not got the requirement you are trying to achieve.

Could you clarify what, but not how you are trying to achieve?

Also, I think, the initial question of the thread was answered.

So, please start a new thread.

Thanks for the reply Danil -

as usual, as soon as i post my question, i figure out how to fix it.

I think there's still an issue here, but it doesn't need to be addressed anymore. Less of an issue than a curiosity....

I got it working by calling the directEvent from javascript directly instead of calling fireEvent.

I would like to withdraw this so you can focus on other issues....and thanks again!

[Daniil]

Thanks for details!

I just should remind about DirectMethod - using it in JavaScript might be more consistent.

Though I don't think you forgot about DirectMethod:)
