The Winter '08 release claims to have some ability to conceal code in packages but I can't see anything that would allow me to do that.  Was this just in pilot for '08 or was it general release?  Anyone know anything about this feature?

I have the following code that I have been asked to make into a bulk trigger.  I'm new to Maps & Sets and I can't find any examples that meet my needs.  Basically, the objects involved here are Offer & Listing.  Offer is related to itself through the counter_offer_to field.  If someone counters and offer I want to update the status of the offer being countered.  If an offer is accepted, I want to update the status of the Listing.  This code works fine but doesn't efficiently handle bulk updates.  Any help is greatly appeciated.
 
trigger UpdateFirstOffer on Offer__c (after insert, after update) {

for (Offer__c o : Trigger.new) {
        

if (o.Offer_Type__c == 'First Offer') {

}
else {
    Offer__c c = [select Offer_Type__c from offer__c where Id = : o.Counter_Offer_To__c];
    
    if (c.id != null) {      
    
        if (o.Offer_Type__c == 'Counter Offer - Seller') {
            c.Offer_Status__c = 'Seller Countered';
            
            update c;
            
        }
        if (o.Offer_Type__c == 'Counter Offer - Buyer') {
            c.Offer_Status__c = 'Buyer Countered';
            update c;
        }
    }
    
}

if (o.Offer_Status__c == 'Sold - Seller Accepted Offer' || o.Offer_Status__c == 'Sold - Buyer Accepted Counter') 
{
    Listing__c l = [select Name from listing__c where Id = : o.Listing__c];
    
    l.Listing_Status__c = 'Pending';
    update l;
    }

}

Hi Everyone,
 
For some reason I can't get the Opportunity ID value on the page load event in an S-Control.  Here is the very simple code:
 
<html>
<script type="text/javascript">
function init() {
window.alert("{!Opportunity.Id}");
</script>
<body onload="init()">
</body>
</html>
 
My expectation is that the message box would have the Opportunity ID in it but it doesn't.  I don't really want a message box.  I want to use the Opportunity ID in a query but I just wrote this to test.  I've used similar code on the lead form and it works fine. 
 
I have also tried dojo.addOnLoad(init) with the same results.
 
Any help on how to get the Opportunity ID when the page gets loaded would be much appreciated.  This behavior isn't limited to the ID field.  I can't get any values on the page load.
 
Thanks,
 
Steve

Hi
 
I am looking for a developer to create a SF application for me.  The very short brief is this:-
  • The application will need to be available via AppExchange with its own set of tabs (2 or 3)
  • We have a website with a set of web services exposed, the application needs to pull data via the webservices and tie it up with client data
  • It will also need to use the web services to push data back to our server
  • Once in Salesforce the user will need to enter their logon details for our server which are used as params for the web service calls. (like the way Google Adwords app works?) ideally this logon info will be remembered

I can give more information directly.

The way I see it working is I will create a developer account and share the username and password, the app is developed via this account so I can take ownership. I need a certain about of functionality implemented, possibly not a 100% finished app.

All code written in English, commented and easily maintainable.

All source to be handed over to me.

Ideally the coder would be UK based, but I'm not adverse to someone from abroad.

I would think this is a maximum of 5 days work.

Thanks
