Select Option to Update a Record
Hey All,
I'm trying to create a select option on a VF page that will allow the user to select an Email Template from a picklist. Upon selection, I want to populate a text field with the email template ID. I've built the selector, but can't figure out how to get the id into the text field.

I'm trying to create a select option on a VF page that will allow the user to select an Email Template from a picklist. Upon selection, I want to populate a text field with the email template ID. I've built the selector, but can't figure out how to get the id into the text field.
VF Page:
<apex:page standardController="Touch__c" extensions="EmailTemplateSelector">
<apex:form >
<apex:selectList value="{!selectedTemplateId}" size="1" rendered="true">
<apex:selectOptions value="{!myPersonalTemplateOptions}"/>
</apex:selectList>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>
Class
public class EmailTemplateSelector {
private Id recordId;
public String selectedTemplateId {get; set;}
public EmailTemplateSelector(ApexPages.StandardController ctr) {
recordId = ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('id');
}
public List<SelectOption> getMyPersonalTemplateOptions() {
List<SelectOption> options = new List<SelectOption>();
for (EmailTemplate t : [
select Id,Name
from EmailTemplate]) {
options.add(new SelectOption(t.Id,t.Name));
}
system.debug(options);
return options;
}
public void updateTouch(String[] selectedTemplateId){
For(Touch__c touch : [select id from Touch__c where id =: recordId]){
For(EmailTemplate e : [select id from EmailTemplate where id IN: selectedTemplateId]){
touch.Email_Template_ID__c = e.id;
update touch;
system.debug(selectedTemplateId);
system.debug(e);
}
//return null;
}
}
}
Try this page
<apex:page standardController="Touch__c" extensions="EmailTemplateSelector"> <apex:form > <apex:selectList value="{!selectedTemplateId}" size="1" rendered="true"> <apex:selectOptions value="{!myPersonalTemplateOptions}"/> <apex:actionSupport event="onchange" reRender="test"/> </apex:selectList> <br/> <apex:outputPanel id="test"> "{!selectedTemplateId}" </apex:outputPanel> </apex:form> </apex:page>This page demonstate you that template id passed to selectedTemplateId property.
I recomended you avoid soql and dml for loop
public void updateTouch(){ EmailTemplate[] templates = [select id from EmailTemplate where id = :selectedTemplateId]; Touch__c[] toUpdateTouchs = new Touch__c[] {}; For(Touch__c touch : [select id from Touch__c where id =: recordId]){ For(EmailTemplate e : templates]) { touch.Email_Template_ID__c = e.id; toUpdateTouchs.add(touch); } } update toUpdateTouchs; }As a common practice, if your question is answered, please choose 1 best answer.
But you can give every answer a thumb up if that answer is helpful to you.
Thanks,
Alex
