OpenWGA 7.8 - WebTML reference
WebTML default actions
Their usage scheme is identical to using normal WebTML actions as they are addressed by an individual action ID. Each default action has a predefined ID which, to differ it from normal actions, starts with a dollar sign "$":
<tml:form id="testform" source="content">
Input: <tml:input name="field"/>
<tml:button clickaction="$store">Speichern</tml:button>
</tml:form>
Note that all default action are debounced, so an action link of any type will only execute the action once, no matter how often it is called.
This section of the documentation lists all available default actions. For more information about WebTML actions in general see the WebTML actions chapter on OpenWGA Concepts and Features.
action="$attach"
Description: | Attaches all files that were uploaded to the current WebTML form to the content document in the current context and saves it. This is a master action and therefor not dependent on the current users access rights. |
action="$delete"
Description: | Deletes the content document in context |
Parameters: | This action can be used with HDBModel contents. Here it will delete the complete page and trigger alle neccessary events. If the context of the current WebTML portlet is located on the document to delete then the action will move the portlet context to its parent document, if available. If not available then the portlet context will be set to "none". |
action="$fireevent"
Description: | Fires a portlet event This fires a simple portlet event without any parameters from the current WebTML portlet. |
Debounced: | true |
Parameters: | param1: The event name |
action="$login"
Description: | This action performs a user/password login to an OpenWGA domain. It may take the login data either via WebTML params or from the submitted WebTML form. In the latter case it uses the following field names:
|
Parameters: | param1: The login username param2: The login password param3: The login domain param4: An URL to redirect to after successful login |
action="$refresh"
Description: | Just reloads the current WebTML page or AJAX portlet. While this action itself has no functionality it may be useful to trigger functionalities that occur on the reload. For example you might use $refresh as change action on a <tml:input type="select"> field to allow the WebTML form code to react on a newly chosen value. |
action="$reset"
Description: | Resets the current WebTML form. This equals a call to the TMLScript method tmlform.reset(). |
action="$setpvar"
Description: | Sets one or more normal WebTML portlet variables. This action has two, modes differing in the parameters that are used:If two parameters are used then those are used to set a single variable. As WebTML action parameters can only be strings this can only used to set string variables. If no parameters are given but a WebTML form is submitted then all fields of the WebTML form will be stored as variables, field name used as variable names, field value as variable values. |
Parameters: | param1: Name of the variable param2: String value of the variable |

This action has two, modes differing in the parameters that are used: If two parameters are used then those are used to set a single variable.
