Javascript: Behaviour.js
24 September 2007 at 5:43am
2 more questions on javascript:
1) How can I turn off jsvalidation that is part of the standard contactform? I noticed there's some 255k js involved, a bit much for a simple contact form... so I could better use my own validation...
2) Where can I read about this behaviour.js-file, how to use it for event-handling.. etc.. ? If in some cases do keep SS's way of validation and included javascript, I don't want to use the library I'm used to use (YUI). It's a bit stupid to include 2 libraries that probably can handle the same stuff...

fair point. the key here is enabling gzip-compression on the server, then its only a fraction of that size.> Where can I read about this behaviour.js-file
it developed pretty much in parallel to the popular behaviour-script (http://bennolan.com/behaviour), but included some SS-specific stuff like Class-handling.
unfortunately its not fully documented, but you can have a look at the wiki[url].customizing javascript-validation to use your own javascript is pretty easy: just selectively clear requirements in the init()-method of your controller and add your own stuff ([url=http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=requirements]http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=requirements).
class Page_Controller extends ContentController() {
function init() {
parent::init();
Requirements::clear('jsparty/prototype.js');
Requirements::javascript('mysite/javascript/yui.js');
// ...
}
}of course you have to attach your own javascript-behaviour to the form/formfields this way.
the silverstripe-specific php-validation will still kick in though. -

Ok, thanks.
I actually want to know if there are some built-in functions/methods that can handle cross-browser issues such as event-handling and stuff..
With the YUI -library I can say for example:
YAHOO.util.Event.addListener(element, event, function)
It makes crossbrowser issues easy..

hm, nothing "built-in" to silverstripe - we're mostly using external libraries, such as prototype.
see http://prototypejs.org/api (just be aware that the prototype.js included by default in silverstripe is a customized 1.4rc1, rather than the current 1.6) -

Ingo,
class Page_Controller extends ContentController() {
function init() {
parent::init();
Requirements::clear('jsparty/prototype.js');
Requirements::javascript('mysite/javascript/yui.js');
// ...
}
}this approach doesn't seem to work when using 'new RequiredFields()'. It always seems to throw in the SS-javascript.
Any ideas of how to get that out?

hm, your code looks ok. formfields are usually constructed after your init()-call, which means that the prototype-requirement could be re-added after clearing. there's no way in 2.1 to prevent this afaik - i've written a simple Requirements::block()-function in some internal sapphire-branch, but this hasn't been merged back yet.
you can try to clear requirements directly before rendering anything (or returning the form in your case). -

Yeah, I tried doing the clears right after the new requiredfields but that didn't do the trick either..
I'm afraid it is not possible.
I guess I'm probably going to end up leaving out requiredfields, and do the test on my form-save method myself.
I guess I still keep the SS- numeric and email validation anyway, no? I suppose the 'new requiredfields' only checks if there is a value, no matter which?
