The UnifiedForm component creates an HTML <form> element. We only support having one af:form component per page. <section name="Geometry_Management"> <html:ul> <html:li>Attempting to stretch a form is currently unsupported except if its ancestor is an af:document. Otherwise stretching a form is unsupported and the result may change in the future.</html:li> </html:ul> </section>

Events:

Type	Phases	Description
org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.event.AttributeChangeEvent	Invoke Application Apply Request Values	Event delivered to describe an attribute change. Attribute change events are not delivered for any programmatic change to a property. They are only delivered when a renderer changes a property without the application's specific request. An example of an attribute change event might include the width of a column that supported client-side resizing.

RichForm

protected RichForm(String rendererType)

Construct an instance of the RichForm.

Method Detail

getInlineStyle

public final String getInlineStyle()

Gets the CSS styles to use for this component. This is intended for basic style changes. The inlineStyle is a set of CSS styles that are applied to the root DOM element of the component. Be aware that because of browser CSS precedence rules, CSS rendered on a DOM element takes precedence over external stylesheets like the skin file. Therefore skins will not be able to override what you set on this attribute. If the inlineStyle's CSS properties do not affect the DOM element you want affected, then you will have to create a skin and use the skinning keys which are meant to target particular DOM elements, like ::label or ::icon-style.

Returns:

the new inlineStyle value

setInlineStyle

public final void setInlineStyle(String inlineStyle)

Sets the CSS styles to use for this component. This is intended for basic style changes. The inlineStyle is a set of CSS styles that are applied to the root DOM element of the component. Be aware that because of browser CSS precedence rules, CSS rendered on a DOM element takes precedence over external stylesheets like the skin file. Therefore skins will not be able to override what you set on this attribute. If the inlineStyle's CSS properties do not affect the DOM element you want affected, then you will have to create a skin and use the skinning keys which are meant to target particular DOM elements, like ::label or ::icon-style.

Parameters:

inlineStyle - the new inlineStyle value

getStyleClass

public final String getStyleClass()

Gets a CSS style class to use for this component. The style class can be defined in your jspx page or in a skinning CSS file, for example, or you can use one of our public style classes, like 'AFInstructionText'.

Returns:

the new styleClass value

setStyleClass

public final void setStyleClass(String styleClass)

Sets a CSS style class to use for this component. The style class can be defined in your jspx page or in a skinning CSS file, for example, or you can use one of our public style classes, like 'AFInstructionText'.

Parameters:

styleClass - the new styleClass value

getShortDesc

public final String getShortDesc()

Gets the short description of the component. The shortDesc text may be used in two different ways, depending on the component.

For components with images, the shortDesc is often used to render an HTML alt attribute for the image. Please see the accessibility guidelines section for correct alt text usage of the shortDesc attribute.

shortDesc is also commonly used to render an HTML title attribute, which is used by user agents to display tooltip help text. In this case the behavior for the tooltip is controlled by the user agent, e.g. Firefox 2 truncates long tooltips. For form components, the shortDesc is displayed in a note window. For components that support the helpTopicId attribute and are not using the shortDesc as image alt text, it is recommended that helpTopicId is used instead of shortDesc as it is more flexible and provides more accessible descriptive text than the use of the title attribute.

Returns:

the new shortDesc value

setShortDesc

public final void setShortDesc(String shortDesc)

Sets the short description of the component. The shortDesc text may be used in two different ways, depending on the component.

For components with images, the shortDesc is often used to render an HTML alt attribute for the image. Please see the accessibility guidelines section for correct alt text usage of the shortDesc attribute.

shortDesc is also commonly used to render an HTML title attribute, which is used by user agents to display tooltip help text.

For components that support the helpTopicId attribute and are not using the shortDesc as image alt text, it is recommended that helpTopicId is used instead of shortDesc as it is more flexible and provides more accessible descriptive text than the use of the title attribute.

Parameters:

shortDesc - the new shortDesc value

getUnsecure

public final Set<String> getUnsecure()

Gets A whitespace separated list of attributes whose values ordinarily can be set only on the server, but need to be settable on the client. Currently, this is supported only for the "disabled" attribute. Note that when you are able to set a property on the client, you will be allowed to by using the the .setProperty('attribute', newValue) method, but not the .setXXXAttribute(newValue) method. For example, if you have unsecure="disabled", then on the client you can use the method .setProperty('disabled', false), while the method .setDisabled(false) will not work and will provide a javascript error that setDisabled is not a function.

Returns:

the new unsecure value

setUnsecure

public final void setUnsecure(Set<String> unsecure)

Sets A whitespace separated list of attributes whose values ordinarily can be set only on the server, but need to be settable on the client. Currently, this is supported only for the "disabled" attribute. Note that when you are able to set a property on the client, you will be allowed to by using the the .setProperty('attribute', newValue) method, but not the .setXXXAttribute(newValue) method. For example, if you have unsecure="disabled", then on the client you can use the method .setProperty('disabled', false), while the method .setDisabled(false) will not work and will provide a javascript error that setDisabled is not a function.

Parameters:

unsecure - the new unsecure value

isVisible

public final boolean isVisible()

Gets the visibility of the component. If it is "false", the component will be hidden on the client. Unlike "rendered", this does not affect the lifecycle on the server - the component may have its bindings executed, etc. - and the visibility of the component can be toggled on and off on the client, or toggled with PPR. When "rendered" is false, the component will not in any way be rendered, and cannot be made visible on the client. In most cases, use the "rendered" property instead of the "visible" property.

Returns:

the new visible value

setVisible

public final void setVisible(boolean visible)

Sets the visibility of the component. If it is "false", the component will be hidden on the client. Unlike "rendered", this does not affect the lifecycle on the server - the component may have its bindings executed, etc. - and the visibility of the component can be toggled on and off on the client, or toggled with PPR. When "rendered" is false, the component will not in any way be rendered, and cannot be made visible on the client. In most cases, use the "rendered" property instead of the "visible" property.

Parameters:

visible - the new visible value

getCustomizationId

@Deprecated
public final String getCustomizationId()

Deprecated. This attribute is deprecated. This attribute will be removed in the next release. Use the 'id' attribute instead.

Gets This attribute is deprecated. The 'id' attribute should be used when applying persistent customizations. This attribute will be removed in the next release.

Returns:

the new customizationId value

setCustomizationId

@Deprecated
public final void setCustomizationId(String customizationId)

Deprecated. This attribute is deprecated. This attribute will be removed in the next release. Use the 'id' attribute instead.

Sets This attribute is deprecated. The 'id' attribute should be used when applying persistent customizations. This attribute will be removed in the next release.

Parameters:

customizationId - the new customizationId value

isClientComponent

public final boolean isClientComponent()

Gets whether a client-side component will be generated. A component may be generated whether or not this flag is set, but if client Javascript requires the component object, this must be set to true to guarantee the component's presence. Client component objects that are generated today by default may not be present in the future; setting this flag is the only way to guarantee a component's presence, and clients cannot rely on implicit behavior. However, there is a performance cost to setting this flag, so clients should avoid turning on client components unless absolutely necessary.

Returns:

the new clientComponent value

setClientComponent

public final void setClientComponent(boolean clientComponent)

Sets whether a client-side component will be generated. A component may be generated whether or not this flag is set, but if client Javascript requires the component object, this must be set to true to guarantee the component's presence. Client component objects that are generated today by default may not be present in the future; setting this flag is the only way to guarantee a component's presence, and clients cannot rely on implicit behavior. However, there is a performance cost to setting this flag, so clients should avoid turning on client components unless absolutely necessary.

Parameters:

clientComponent - the new clientComponent value

getClientAttributes

public final Set getClientAttributes()

Gets a set of client attribute names.

Returns:

the new clientAttributes value

setClientAttributes

public final void setClientAttributes(Set clientAttributes)

Sets a set of client attribute names.

Parameters:

clientAttributes - the new clientAttributes value

getPartialTriggers

public final String[] getPartialTriggers()

Gets the IDs of the components that should trigger a partial update. This component will listen on the trigger components. If one of the trigger components receives an event that will cause it to update in some way, this component will request to be updated too. Identifiers are relative to the source component (this component), and must account for NamingContainers. If your component is already inside of a naming container, you can use a single colon to start the search from the root of the page, or multiple colons to move up through the NamingContainers - "::" will pop out of the component's naming container (or itself if the component is a naming container) and begin the search from there, ":::" will pop out of two naming containers (including itself if the component is a naming container) and begin the search from there, etc.

Returns:

the new partialTriggers value

setPartialTriggers

public final void setPartialTriggers(String[] partialTriggers)

Sets the IDs of the components that should trigger a partial update. This component will listen on the trigger components. If one of the trigger components receives an event that will cause it to update in some way, this component will request to be updated too. Identifiers are relative to the source component (this component), and must account for NamingContainers. If your component is already inside of a naming container, you can use a single colon to start the search from the root of the page, or multiple colons to move up through the NamingContainers - "::" will pop out of the component's naming container (or itself if the component is a naming container) and begin the search from there, ":::" will pop out of two naming containers (including itself if the component is a naming container) and begin the search from there, etc.

Parameters:

partialTriggers - the new partialTriggers value

public final void setClientListeners(ClientListenerSet clientListeners)

Sets a set of client listeners.

Parameters:

clientListeners - the new clientListeners value

getTargetFrame

public final String getTargetFrame()

Gets the target frame for the form. Can either specify a user-defined frame name, or use one of the following values:

• _blank: The link opens the document in a new window.
• _parent: The link opens the document in the window of the parent. For example, if the link appeared in a dialog window, the resulting page would render in the parent window.
• _self: The link opens the document in the same page or region.
• _top: The link opens the document in a full window, replacing the entire page.

Returns:

the new targetFrame value

setTargetFrame

Identifiers are relative to the form component, and must account for NamingContainers. You can use a single colon to start the search from the root, or multiple colons to move up through the NamingContainers - "::" will pop out of the component's naming container and begin the search from there, ":::" will pop out of two naming containers and begin the search from there, etc.

Returns:

the new defaultCommand value

setDefaultCommand

public final void setDefaultCommand(String defaultCommand)

Sets the id attribute of the command button inside the form whose action should be invoked by default when the enter key is pressed with focus inside the form. If defaultCommand is not specified, no action is invoked when the enter key is pressed with focus inside the form.
