Harness Search

## notice, no action attribute on the form so that it posts back to the document url

## if the clear search button was used, set a flag so I can avoid re-checking any checkboxes, effectively clearing them. #set($clearForm = false) ## the if clause below is a very common way to test for 'null' values. ## 1. put the variable inside double quotes. ## 2. use the exclamation mark, which prints an empty string "" if the variable doesn't exist or is null ## 3. compare that result to an empty string. If they're equal, the value is null or non-existent. #if("$!parameters.get('clearButton')" != "") #set($clearForm = true) #end
## I have the two buttons right next to each other to make them fix. you may wish to adjust.
## ========================================================================= ## begin checkbox code #foreach($attr in $attributeNames)

$attr #set($attrValues = $attributeChoices.get($attr)) #foreach($val in $attrValues) ## find out if this value is checked by comparing the value with every attr_search parameter submitted. #set($paramList = $parameters2.get('attr_search')) ## notice parameters2 (returns list of values) #set($valChecked = false) #if("$!paramList" != "" && $clearForm == false) ## this is a pretty safe way to see if the paramList is null or not. don't want to iterate with null object... #foreach($param in $paramList) ## each checkbox value is a combination of attribute name + values concatenated with a tilde. To see if a parameter ## was submitted, compare the post parameter with the concatenated key string. ## if there is a match, I want to do two things. ## 1. add the value to my selections variable so I can include it in the advanced search. ## 2. set the checkbox to 'checked' so I maintain my state with each page request. #if($param == "${attr}~${val}") ## add this value to the selected hash of lists which will be used to do the actual search. ## first, get a reference to the list of selected values for this attribute #set($sel = $attributeSelections.get($attr)) ## make sure the search attribute exists. it always should, but this prevents unforeseen change breaks. ## unforeseen, such as, you rename an attribute or delete one without properly updating this page. #if("$!sel" != "") ## it doesn't matter where I put a value in the list ## I don't need to put the value at the front, but the method add(pos,element) ## returns void, which is preferred to add(element) which returns true/false ## If I use just plain add(), I'll print a bunch of 'true' across the page $sel.add(0, $val) #end ## set the flag so the checkbox is checked. #set($valChecked = true) #end #end ## foreach attr_search parameter #end ## if paramList is not null $val #end ## end-foreach val in attrValues
