How to do a checklist/to-do list in Cakephp? - cakephp

I am trying to create a checklist/to-do list app in Cakephp.
In the mySQL database I have a column called 'done' which is either true or false.
I have all my tasks in a table.
How do I change the value of that field when I either tick a checkbox or click on the task in the table row?
I want to be able to change this field without having press submit on a form or reload the page.
Is this possible in Cakephp?

How do I populate choices for combo box in powerapps?

Novice business user here: I am trying to build a schedule separated by date in Microsoft PowerApps for Teams. It would look something like the arrival/departure board at an airport. I need my users to be able to change the status of an event on the schedule basically from "no go" to "go."
For my table, I created a table with columns showing the "no go" and "go" choices and set my default choices to "no go".
For my gallery, I created a nested gallery to separate the dates.
In the gallery, I can populate the fields I created in my table with the "no go" default values, but when I click the dropdown arrow in the combo box, I either get irrelevant choices from a different text column, or I don't get any choices at all.
I have tried making different changes to the "text" and "items" properties. I just don't know how to make the choices I created in the table populate in the combo box dropdown.

Add a user clickable check box in SSRS report

I am creating a report that for the most part is populated automatically by using variables, parameters with my datasource and dataset. I am trying to add in another column that will have a checkbox, where when the user pulls a report he or she can manually go in and click a check box for various rows. The clicked check box is done by the user and there is no need to send or retrieve data with this check box. Is there a simple solution to where I can add a checkbox for the user to check (and uncheck) various boxes?
SSRS does not deliver this kind of functionality. You would need to have a flag for every displayed row somewhere in your database and add two images to your report, a checked and one unchecked "checkbox" image, show those images on each row (source over expression) based on the flag of the row. Add an action to the image, that executes a storedProc and flags or unflags the row (pass an unambiguous id as parameter).
This is rather dirty, but would work.

Sync up data in ADF table after update in DB table done outside ADF environment

I have a jsff page inside a bounded task flow. It displays a table. Each row of table has an edit icon. on click of which a new jsff page opens containing the information of the selected row ready to be edited.
Here user can update and save the information and check the information back on the first page by clicking a Done button on second page.Pretty much simple.
The problem is I have some complex implementation due to which I should not update the row information through ADF way. I take the information entered by the user and pass it to plane java file. There in the plane java file I instantiate an AM and update the information through this AM.
The problem with this approach is that when I click the Done button to come back on table page to check the saved data, the data on the table is stale.
This seems as If the table is being updated outside the ADF framework and so it is not aware of the underlying the data change hence the ADF UI table is not synced with physical table automatically.
JDev : 11.1.1.7.11
Options tried : Upon click of Done button I tried to requery the VO of ADF table by
1) Clearing the VO cache row and repopulating it
2) Re executing the iterator binding
3) Re executing the iterator binding programatically.
Thanks

Delete selected checkbox ticked rows

I am new on jsp. I am providing the checkboxes in front of every row that are being fetched from DB. Now I want to delete the rows whose checkboxes have been checked.
Please suggest how to achieve this task on submit of form.
I can make the delete query at my end but issue is with check boxes ticked or not ticket approach.
Do we have any way as request.getParameter("delete_checkbox").value or something like this?
This is what you need :
http://theopentutorials.com/examples/java-ee/servlet/getting-checkbox-values-from-html-form-in-servlet/
As shown in the tutorial in value attribute pass the Id of your records.
Parse them to Long in servlet and make a server hit to delete.

Inline add/edit/delete data in views in Drupal 7

I am trying to create a content type (say Meter). Each Meter consists of a "Meter Reading". This meter reading content contains three fields, say title, date range and usage. I have a Panel page where I display all the Meter Readings related to a parent Meter. I have displayed the Meter Readings in a tabular format.
I want the user to be able to add new Meter Readings without going to the default Meter Readings creation page. Rather than the default form kind of page, the user should be able to enter the data in the table view provided and it should be automatically saved into the project itself.
So, I want the functionality to be like:-
Display all the meter readings with two links, i.e., Edit and Delete,
When the user clicks on Edit link, the meter reading row should become editable and the user should be able to make the changes inline in the same table,
In the footer there should be a link for adding a new meter reading and when the user clicks on it, a new blank row should be added dynamically to the table and the user should be able to make a new entry into it.
Is there a module in Drupal 7 for doing so?? I have already tried out several modules for this such as SlickGrid, jQGrid and jEditable
Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.
Am afraid am not aware about a module that does all that out of the box. But in case you carry on with custom coding you can have a look at the following:
Edit and Delete options per row in views
Use Views Megarow. For working example you can have a look at how its used in commerce backoffice. Please note that you need to write the form structure ( FORM api ) for the quick edit form in a custom module. The Views Megarow takes care of ajax populating the edit form, its submission in client side, and refreshing the original row after the response from server.
When the user clicks on Edit link, the meter reading row should become editable and the user should be able to make the changes inline
in the same table.
Views Megarow doesn't support inline editing. But another module as suggested by #nmc does it. Its editablefields. But it doesn't have any edit/delete button. You click on the text directly ( provided user has appropriate permission to edit the field data ) in view.
In case you are going to use editablefields, then you would have to add another delete button in view, which one confirmation would redirect to the page that triggered delete action.
Since delete button would redirect to a default confirmation page, you may want to code a custom delete action which may override this.
In the footer there should be a link for adding a new meter reading and when the user clicks on it, a new blank row should be
added dynamically to the table and the user should be able to make a
new entry into it.
I suggest creating a small ajax form. Create a "Add Meter Reading" button in it, which on submission would create a meter reading node in the server. The ajax form should have parent information in a hidden field ( i.e. the Meter id). The ajax response for this form could be another script to load/refresh the view on client side.
Client side code to refresh the view can be found in Views Autorefresh submodule in Views Hacks.
If using views megarow you would have to add another jquery function on ajax response after view is refreshed - Trigger edit button.
Otherwise you may have to add some classes or theme to newly created rows in view to bring them to focus.
It is important that the entire views refreshes, so that drupal behaviours are attached to the newly created entry in table.
I don't know if there is one module which will meet all your needs but you may be able to use some in combination.
Views Bulk Operations (VBO) - has Drupal 7 support
This module augments Views by allowing bulk operations to be executed
on the displayed rows. It does so by showing a checkbox in front of
each node, and adding a select box containing operations that can be
applied. Drupal Core or Rules actions can be used.
editablefields - Drupal 7 version in dev
This module allows CCK fields to be edited on a node's display (e.g.
at node/123), not just on the node edit pages (e.g. node/123/edit). It
also works within views etc. Anywhere a 'formatter' can be selected,
you can select editable (or click to edit).
editview - no Drupal 7 support yet but I thought I would mention it in case you're able to adapt the code yourself
Editview is a plugin for the Views module. It allows you to create a
view in which the nodes are editable, and new nodes can be created.
