Nextmatch submits to calling function

[Nathan_Gray-2]

I’ve done lots of nextmatch widgets, and they all work, except one.
When clicking any part of the widget (category, search, num_rows,
arrows), it submits to the callback function (as provided in the
etemplate->exec function) instead of calling the get_rows function
(as provided in the nextmatch array).
It gets the data, but only the first page using default settings. I
can’t filter, I can’t change the number of rows returned, and I can’t
get to the next page of results. When I try, the form is submitted
and the nextmatch is reset.

The nextmatch array:
$data[‘nextmatch’] = array(
‘sales_category_id’ => $category_id,
‘get_rows’ =>
‘perp_orders.bo_perp_orders.get_sales_category_stock’,
‘template’ => ‘perp_orders.sales_category_edit.row’,
‘cat_app’ => ‘perp_inventory’,
‘no_filter’ => true,
‘no_filter2’ => true
);

This may be a Monday morning thing, but I can’t think of anything
different that would cause this to happen. Can anyone think of
anything?

Took me a month, off and on but it turns out the problem was an Ajax
select widget located after the nextmatch widget was canceling the
nextmatch’s request to loop.
The nextmatch would set $loop to true, ajax_select_widget would set
it to false, and the callback function would get called.

To make ajax_select_widget play nice with other widgets:

•   		$loop = $extension_data['required'];
  

•   		$loop = $GLOBALS['egw_info']['etemplate']['loop'] ||  
  

$extension_data[‘required’];

Just for the record…

Hello Nathan,

your Ajax select widget is great! I played with it during the weekend…
I tried using it in a row of a nextmatch widget and (still) get the same problem you describe (The nextmatch is reset). Can you think of anything?

Many thanks!

Not really, without more information.
Are you using it as an input method in a nextmatch row?
The only thing I can think of right now is if more than 1 match was
found, but there should be a message to that effect.

Thanks for your reply!
Yes, I’ m trying to use it as an input in a nextmatch row.
What do you mean by “more than 1 match”? Even when I do nothing and just display the “ajax select” in the row of a nextmatch this nextmatch widget does not filter or move to the next page etc.
I dont know what else to try…

There is also no message.

I checked, and was able to get to the next page of results and filter
with an ajax select as a widget on a nextmatch row.

Assumptions:

1. Your ajax select is properly configured, and the same settings
   work when not used on a nextmatch row. The name may be changed from
   your_id to ${row}[your_id].
2. You are attempting to link two uniquely identifiable entities
   that can be displayed via existing nextmatch widgets.

The ajax select widget is used to choose one value from a list,
especially one that is too big for a selectbox. It can pull data
from the same function that the nextmatch widget does. In the
attached image, you can see stock items being assigned a location.
The settings for the widget for that column are as follows:

Name: ${row}[location_id]
Options
(perp_inventory.bo_perp_location.get_location_list,perp_inventory.bo_per
p_location.link_title,location_id):
Data Source: perp_inventory.bo_perp_location.get_location_list
Title Source: perp_inventory.bo_perp_location.link_title
ID Field: location_id

If I were to type “Bench” into the ajax select box, and click “Save”,
I would get an error of “More than 1 match…” because there’s Test,
Left, Right and Center Bench.

Hello Nathan,

I just wanted to say you where right! The problem was that I was using two nextmatch tables linking one to another (e.g. one for a list of sheets and one for the actual sheet). When I replaced the second nextmatch widget with an unlimited table everything worked!!

Thanks again for your help and your time!!!
