How to automatically run filter on list collector

dennisjames · ‎09-24-2015

Hey Guys,

I have a catalog item that I am working on, and want to filter my list collector based on an option that is chosen. I have a client script that will apply the filter and have it show up on the page, but it still requires the user to hit "Run Filter". I've seen this scenario mentioned on this thread - Catalog List Collector variable: Set filter? and it seems they solved it, but didn't see anything definitive on how it was done.

Here is a basic one that I was testing with in my DEV instance as a start off. How would I get it to set the filter up and have the filter run on the list collector without manually hitting the button?:

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

if (isLoading || newValue == '') {

return;

}

machineg_filter.reset();

machineg_filter.setQuery("sys_id=3a63d606c611222500487ae00a5bf3b8");

machineg_filteracRequest(null);

}

use below code in onchange script to run the filter dynamically. Use Timeout function to set some delay

function onChange()

{
var collectorName = 'Responsibilities';
var filterString = 'u_user='+g_form.getValue('Requestor')+'^u_tme_active=true^u_tme_role_assigned=true';

//Find the filter elements
var fil = gel('ep');
//Hide the filter elements by un-commenting the following lines
/*fil.rows[0].style.display = 'none';
fil.rows[1].style.display = 'none';
fil.nextSibling.rows[0].style.display = 'none'; //Filter description text*/

//Reset the filter query
eval(collectorName + 'g_filter.reset()');
eval(collectorName + 'g_filter.setQuery("' + filterString + '")');
window.setTimeout(fun21,4000,answer);

}

function fun21()

{

var collectorName1 = 'Responsibilities';

eval(collectorName1 + 'acRequest(null)');

}
