Expanding and collapsing response document rows with Domino and Internet Explorer (continued)
Save and close the view.
Create a form
Create a new form and name it "myform". Enter the following into the form and embed the view where indicated:
<style type="text/css">
#mytable {display: block;}
#myrow {display: block;}
</style>
<table id='mytable'>
EMBED THE VIEW 'myview' HERE
</table>
<noscript>
|
Right click on the embedded view and select "embedded view". Ensure that "display" is set to "Using HTML". Then select the entire contents of the form and select "Text" and "Pass thru HTML".
In the form properties, ensure that "Treat document contents as HTML" is off.
Save and close the form.
Testing our Lotus Domino example
Lets now test the Lotus Domino example that we just created. Using Internet Explorer, type in the URL to the form that we have just created:
You should then see the following repeating for each document in the view/database:
this is a table row
this is a table row
this is a table row
this is a table row
|
Notice that all table rows are displayed because their CSS display property is set to "block". You can hide all table rows by changing the CSS display property from #myrow {display: block;} to #myrow {display: none;}.
Okay, so we've illustrated the technique in Domino, but it's not so interesting because it just shows or hides all rows in the table. It doesn't allow control over individual rows. In my next article, we'll get fancy, adding response documents to our view and preparing to selectively show or hide all the responses for any row. Stay tuned!
