Filpping between View and Edit for a list of records on a VF page

I've got a nice S-Control that lets me see all my time entries for the week on one page. I see a view of the data and if I hit the edit button on an entry, I flip to an edit form.

I want to rebuild this in VisualForce and I'm struggling around how to produce that pattern.

In JS I had a Div with the HTML for displaying the record, and when I hit the edit button, I replaced the complete contents of the DIV with an edit form. On save, I replace the contents again, back to the view HTML.

If I'm displaying a list of entries in VF, I can easily display them as outputText or inputFields. And I know how to rerender elements. But any ideas on the best way to flip between view and edit modes?

Thanks!

ApexPages.addMessages(e) in visual force page

 
I need to handle exception and show my person message(like record is deleted) when user try to fetch data which is already deleted.
 
I wrote code like this in extention controller.
 
Code:
  public MyControllerExtension(ApexPages.StandardController stdController) {
     
      try {               
     
     
      this.acct  = [select id, name, site,Account_Manager__c,RecordTypeId,Dealer_ID__c,OwnerId from Account where id =
                       :System.currentPageReference().getParameters().get('id')];
      this.profile=[Select p.Name From Profile p where p.Id=:UserInfo.getProfileId()];
       } catch (System.QueryException e) {       
        
             ApexPages.addMessages(e);           
        }       
     
      init();
    }

 And page is like this.
Code:
<apex:page standardController="Account" extensions="MyControllerExtension" action="{!doRedirect}">
<apex:pageMessages />

       <apex:detail relatedList="true" relatedListHover="true"subject="{!account.id}"/>

   </apex:page>

Now this page shows message which is not user readable.Istead of standard message,I need to diaply like"record is deleted and it will be in recyclebin for 30 days"
 
How I can show this meesage instead of standard message in visual force page?
 
Any help will be great.

How to restrict related lists update

Hi,

I have an object and I allow the user to update the object only before some deadline. My problem is I wrote a trigger
which restricts the update of the object based on the deadline. But the relatedlists of the object get updated even after the
deadline.

One of my related lists is Notesandattachments . I was able to add attachments even after the deadline. Is there a way to restrict the update of attachments ?

Kindly help.

Thanks,

apex:actionFunction not working when called from Javascript

Hi

I have written this following piece of code for invoking controller method from Javascript but it does not work. I am not sure what I am missing in it,
Code:
<apex:outputPanel rendered="{!contractSummary}">
            <p><span style="padding:100px;"></span><apex:commandButton action="{!viewContractSummary}" value="View Contract Summary" styleClass="btn"/>
            <span style="padding:5px;"/><apex:commandButton value="Remove Term" onclick="validateRemove()"></apex:commandButton></p>
              <apex:actionFunction name="removeContractTerms" action="{!removeContractTerms}"></apex:actionFunction>
            <script>
                function validateRemove()
                {
                    var answer = confirm("Would you like to remove this Term from the Contract—")
                    if(answer)
                    {
                      var contractTermsId = document.getElementById('{!$Component.contractTermsId}')
                      removeContractTerms()
                    
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        alert("No"+contractTermsId)
                    }
                
                }
            </script>
       </apex:outputPanel>


Controller
 public PageReference removeContractTerms()
       {     
           delete contract_terms;
           return viewContractSummary();
           
       
       }  

  /* This method takes the user to the contract summary page */
       public PageReference viewContractSummary()
       {
        
            PageReference contSumPr = Page.contract_summary;
            contSumPr.getParameters().put('contractId', System.currentPageReference().getParameters().get('contractId'));
            contSumPr.setredirect(true);
            return contSumPr;
        
       }

 I tried both ways to call the Controller method - using the apex:actionFunction Name directly and also by using setTimeout(removeContractTerms,1000)

Can  anyone please look into this?

Thanks

Record Id problem

Hi,

I created a button with different name for "New Note" under the Notes and Attachments section. My problem is
In the action method for the button when I copy the parent_id using

secondPage.getParameters().put('parent_id',exmsub.Id);

--it copies 18 bit record id an displays the "Data not available " error

but if I remove the last 3 bits of the record-id manually , it displays the page properly.
How do I supply only 15 bit record id for the record I am displaying.

This problem did not arise when I was renaming the Attach File button.

Can anybody tell me where  I am going wrong?

Thanks,
