Problem to pass parameters to an URL by a store

[feanor91]

Hello

Here's my problem:

I have a calendar that I want to fill or not, depending on a checkbox checked or not. But I did not understand how to do. Here what I have done as I understand of what I read elsewhere on the forum :

                                            
                                           <EventStore 
                                                ID="stoCalendar" 
                                                runat="server" 
                                                DateFormat="M$"
                                                SaveMappings="false">
                                                <Proxy>
                                                    <ext:HttpProxy Url="jsonDal/ReturnJsonCalendar.aspx" Json="true" />
                                                </Proxy>
                                                <BaseParams>
                                                    <ext:Parameter Name="ShowParis" Value="#{chkResMedParisVisible}.getRawValue();"></ext:Parameter>
                                                </BaseParams>
                                                <Reader>
                                                    <ext:JsonReader />
                                                </Reader>
                                            </EventStore>

I think it is good but I don't know how to get paramaters ShowParis in code behind :

        Dim bShowParis As Boolean = CBool(Request.QueryString("ShowParis"))

This works well (and hopefully) if I pass the parameter in the URL calling like this :

    <ext:HttpProxy Url="jsonDal/ReturnJsonCalendar.aspx?ShowParis=true" Json="true" />

but not whith the baseparam system...So what I have misunderstood or what is missing?

Thanks to answer.

Hi,

Well, you can read it from InputStream:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...putstream.aspx
since you set up Json="true".

Or you can remove Json="true" and read a parameter this way:

Request["parameterName"]

Could you clarify why do you need a json request to a page?

And I would recommend to use a WebService or an http handler instead of a page.

https://examples1.ext.net/#/GridPane...rting/Handler/

Thanks for your answer.

I think I use aspx page as you use webservice, I only use that to return my json string. I'm not very aware of webservice technique, so, as I have to deliver a concept project very fast, I didn't lost a lot of time on technology that i'm not very inform on and as I use VB and not C# as code behind, I try to adapt an example of web service but I couldn't manage to make it works, so, I return to well know method.

But at the end, I will try to make all mt request by webservice of course.

For now, I have resolve my problem by getting data needed in code behind: when I tick my checkbox, a data is stored in code bhind and uses after. This way it works.

Could you explain furtherthe rmove jso=true and parameter things? Where I use this parameter? And what json=true or false does?

Well, you need to set up Json="true" when you need to send parameters as a JSON object - for example, to a JSON WebService.

When you send a request to a page, I think you don't need to set up Json="true".

[feanor91]

OK, I will try that then.

I thinked it was to say that we await a JSON return from the request.

There is really a lack of documentation on ext.net stuff. Examples are very good, but it is not enough to understand all the subtilities of such a tool.

[Daniil]

Well, it is in the Ext.Net docs:
http://docs.ext.net/

Search HttpProxy, click "members" - there is the Json property.

Though, really there are no many things in these docs. We hope to extend it.

[feanor91]

Oups...See it, Well, I didn't find this doc before, thanks a lot!

[feanor91]

OK, I have made a little progress.

I manage to catch my ShoParis parameters but I get that inside (this is mly header to the page) :

Request URL:http://localhost:4124/jsonDal/ReturnJsonCalendar.aspx
Request Headers
Content-Type:application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=UTF-8
Origin:http://localhost:4124
Referer:http://localhost:4124/Default.aspx
User-Agent:Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1) AppleWebKit/534.24 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/11.0.696.60 Safari/534.24
X-Requested-With:XMLHttpRequest
Form Data
start:11-27-2011
end:12-31-2011
ShowParis:chkResMedParisVisible.getRawValue();

In fact, it seems that the javascript function is not interpreted before passing parameters....

Now, my call is like that :

                                            <EventStore 
                                                ID="stoCalendarMonth1" 
                                                runat="server" 
                                                DateFormat="M$"
                                                SaveMappings="false">
                                                <Proxy>
                                                    <ext:HttpProxy Url="jsonDal/ReturnJsonCalendar.aspx" Json="false" />
                                                </Proxy>
                                                <BaseParams>
                                                    <ext:Parameter Name="ShowParis" Value="#{chkResMedParisVisible}.getRawValue();"></ext:Parameter>
                                                </BaseParams>
                                                <Reader>
                                                    <ext:JsonReader />
                                                </Reader>
                                            </EventStore>

[Daniil]

Please set up Mode="Raw" for the Parameter.

[feanor91]

Try it but on my init calendar function :

Ext.getCmp("calMonth1").setStartDate(dDateNow);            

Main.js:111Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'setStartDate' of undefined
  Ext.getCmp("calMonth2").setStartDate(dDateNextMonth1);            

  Ext.getCmp("calMonth3").setStartDate(dDateNextMonth2);

The javascript code crash it failed to create the calendar (here, I try on the second one : I have 3 calendar linked (november-december-january, for example)
