[Portfolio] Create Form "Display Name"

[Maurer, Christopher Wayne]

In StructuredArtifactHome.java, I see this:


      Element type = new Element("type");

      root.addContent(type);


      type.addContent(createNode("id", "file"));

      type.addContent(createNode("description", "file"));

I haven't done any more digging yet, but perhaps that type is ending up in displayName somehow?

Thanks!... That worked, although there's got to be a better solution somewhere :)  I'm not sure why this instance was doing that (and it doesn't seem to be isolated to just me), but in my local trunk instance of sakai, the forms display name is a empty string and I never had this problem.  I wish I knew why, so I could get that beer.

My snippet to get rid of it was:

<xsl:template match="formView">

                        <xsl:variable name="displayName">
                                <xsl:choose>
                                        <xsl:when test="formData/artifact/metaData/displayName = 'filefile'">
                                                <xsl:text></xsl:text>
                                        </xsl:when>
                                        <xsl:otherwise>
                                                <xsl:value-of select="formData/artifact/metaData/displayName" />
                                        </xsl:otherwise>
                                </xsl:choose>
                        </xsl:variable>


and then....

                                        <!--<xsl:value-of select="formData/artifact/metaData/displayName" />-->
<xsl:when test="$subForm = 'true'">

                                        <!--<xsl:value-of select="formData/artifact/metaData/displayName" />-->
                                        <xsl:value-of select="$displayName" />
                                </h4>
                            </xsl:when>
                            <xsl:when test="$fromResources = 'true' and $edit = 'true'">
                                <h4>
                                        <!--<xsl:value-of select="formData/artifact/metaData/displayName" />-->
                                        <xsl:value-of select="$displayName" />
                                </h4>
                                <input type="hidden" id="displayName" name="displayName" maxlength="1024">
                                    <xsl:attribute name="value">
                                        <!--<xsl:value-of select="formData/artifact/metaData/displayName" />-->
                                        <xsl:value-of select="$displayName" />
                                    </xsl:attribute>
                                </input>
                            </xsl:when>

I guess that precludes name your form instance 'filefile'.

I'll buy a cold beverage if you make the default name of a form an empty string!

Do you know what file that is?  Or is that source code?

Bryan,

This isn’t much help, but I remember figuring out where the “fil” was coming from once. “Fil” is cut off from “file”, and it is the part of the form metadata that gets used when the displayName field is empty (which it is when you preview a form or create one in Resources.) It might come from the <artifact><metaData><type><id>. I hope this at least points you in the right direction.

Subject: [Portfolio] Create Form "Display Name"

I've been looking for the source of a miscellaneous value that is automatically populating the "Display Name" when creating a form.  I.E., when I go to Edit -> Preview on a form, the "Display Name" field has "fil" automatically populated.  I've looked in the Portfolio Admin site Resources tool at the following files:  formCreate.xslt, contentOverText.xml, formFieldTemplate.xslt, formView.xslt but didn't find anything that would do that.  Is there somewhere else it's pulling this from?  Has anyone seen this before... I know the part of the code that is filling it in is in formCreate.xstlt at:
                                                                                                                                                <input type="text" id="displayName" name="displayName" maxlength="1024">
                                                                                                                                                                <xsl:attribute name="value">
                                                                                                                                                                                <xsl:value-of select="formData/artifact/metaData/displayName" />
                                                                                                                                                                </xsl:attribute>
