I thought it would be interesting and enlightening to get a good handle on where the community is as a whole on their XPages deployment strategy. This will help us understand where we can continue to help as we author posts about XPages, and give us a real sense of the adoption rate of XPages.

Advanced HTML Element Select with Control and Shift Click
Tue, Mar 9th 2010 6:33p Jeremy Hodge In my last post I discussed how to use dojo and CSS classes to create a user-selectable set of HTML elements. The example provided a list-like single-selection interface that allowed the user to only select single elements.
Today, I am going to expand upon that example to create a multiple-select interface allowing the user to control-click or shift-click to select multiple elements.
We are going to start off right where we left off last time, by modifying the focusObject() function we previousl [read] Keywords: xpages application

QuickTip: HTML Element Selection Using Dojo
Sun, Mar 7th 2010 10:09a Jeremy Hodge You can quickly create a user selectable list of objects using CSS and a couple of quick dojo functions. First create a series of elements that you want the user to be able to select, and assign them all the same CSS class to describe their appearance. For example we'll create three 's.
Example One Example Two Example Three
Now, lets define the userSelectable CSS class
.userSelectable { margin:4px; height:20px; border:1px solid #DDD; background-color:#F3F3F3; width:auto; [read] Keywords: css

SSJS @Adjust on Javascript Dates - Be Backwarned!
Fri, Mar 5th 2010 5:03p Jeremy Hodge The following code will generate results that you may not expect:
var myDate = new Date(2010,2,15); //this is MARCH 15th, months for JSDate is zero based myDate = @Adjust(myDate,0,-1,0,0,0,0);
You might expect myDate to now be 2/15/2010 ... its what LotusScript would output. But there is a little more than meets the eye going on here.
new Date(2010,2,15) creates a new Date in the local time zone... In SSJS @Adjust() by default treats the date as a UTC timezone, so the results you will actual [read] Keywords: ibm

Embedding Contextual Data for Client-Side Logic in XPages
Sun, Feb 21st 2010 6:07p Jeremy Hodge One of the difficulties I have faced when writing user-friendly UI's using XPages is the limited amount of "data" I can embed in a generated XPage for consumption by client side scripts. Quite often I find myself wanting to do an dojo.xhrPost() to a domino agent to update the state of a document in the background, or programmatically post a partial refresh back to the server with programmatically contrived data, based on the user's actions, or the state of a dataset client-side. Quite often th [read] Keywords: agent

Complete Turnkey NSF to Transform DXL into XPage Syntax
Thu, Feb 11th 2010 10:44a Paul Calhoun I posted an entry earlier this week on an update to the stylesheet I created and demonstrated at Lotusphere on how to transform Domino Form, Sub-Form and Shared Fields DXL into XPage syntax that could be copied and pasted directly into the XPages source tab in the Domino Designer client.
I had updated it to include the processing of Sub-Forms and Shared Fields. The problem was that it placed the fields from the sub-forms and shared fields at the bottom of the XPage instead of in-line where the [read] Keywords: domino

UPDATED: Transforming Domino Forms into XPages via XSLT
Mon, Feb 8th 2010 7:44a Paul Calhoun First I want to thank everyone who came to the XML and Web Services Jumpstart as well as the speedgeeking at Lotusphere 10. I got a lot of great feedback. Thanks !!!
One such feedback was about my process of transforming Domino Form Designs into XPages via XSLT. When I developed the tool I took what I believed to be a logical approach and added all of the different field types to a Domino Form Design and then processed it with the XSLT stylesheet I created.
Everything came across, all of th [read] Keywords: domino

Self Awareness of Custom Controls in XPages: "Am I alone out there"
Thu, Feb 4th 2010 6:44p Lance Spellman What the heck does that mean??? Well, here's a scenario. I've taken the time to build a PieChart custom control. I'd like to be able to drop that PieChart on an XPage multiple times for multiple different charts. But how can I make that happen without hard-coding the configuration into the control itself? I would need to be able to PASS that data into the PieChart control from the containing page.
So if I use something like viewScope.put('PieChartConfig', config) into the XPage, that solves [read] Keywords: xpages application

XPiNC Hello World - XPages in the Sidebar on a Composite App.
Wed, Feb 3rd 2010 5:13p Paul Hannan Here is a quick post on how you can add a XPage to the Sidebar in the Notes Client. Currently this is the only way you can put a XPage in the Sidebar, the other way may be in the future.
So lets start. Take any Composite Application and from the main menu select Actions - Edit Application.
This will open the application in the Composite App Editor. And here we're going to add a XPage Component that has been configured for wiring events (for more on this try this Wiki post). On the Component Pale [read] Keywords: ldd
