Ive seen this question posted before with no answer to it. Just wondering if anyone has worked this out. I am trying to display a picklist filtered by the value selected by the parent picklist. Below is the code I am working with. The problem I have is that validFor for a picklistValue is nothing. From what I read in the API, validFor returns some sort of byte array but just looking at the toolkit it seems it is never populated with anything. It is just initialized to a new array (Sforce.PicklistEntry.prototype.validFor = new Array();).
Suggestions? Thanks...
Code:
var s = sforceClient.DescribeSObject(sfdcObjName);
var picklistValArray = new Array();
var valid4 = null;
for(var x=1;x<s.fields.length;x++)
{
if(s.fields[x].type=="picklist" && s.fields[x].name == colName)
{
if(wDepend)
{
isDependent = s.fields[x].dependentPicklist;
}
var pls = s.fields[x].picklistValues;
for(var y=0;y<pls.length;y++)
{
valid4 = pls[y].validFor;
picklistValArray[y] = pls[y].value;
}
}
}
return picklistValArray;
}
I am trying to use the DescribeSObject method in javascript using the 3.3 sforceclient.js. For some reason the same code that was working before the weekend isnt now just a few days later. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem or if Im just nuts.
var s = sforceClient.DescribeSObject("Case");
Gives me an error on line 2542 "Object required".
I did noticed the thread on DescribeSObjects not working with the 3.3 js but from what I understood using DescribeSObject individually was the workaround. Anything else I could try would be greatly appreciated.
"Permission denied to call method XMLHttpRequest.open"
I am testing with some cross browser apps.
I have an HTML page which I load locally which has the the following :
Code:
var result = sforceClient.login(DebugUser,DebugPass);
This works fine when I test with IE (6.0.2900.) but with FF (1.5.0.4) it throws the above exception.
I can't find the call that is throwing the error (the debugger is not really that good in FF) but I have had the same issue when trying to load XML documents which was caused by the following:
Within an SControl on FF 1.5, so I don't think this is super-urgent, but it would improve things on the testing front here as we have other surpise errors caused by cross-domain calls that are making life difficult enough!
Any comments or suggestions welcomed.
Thanks
Gareth.

This is my first post. I have a custom object, and I need to count the number of events attached to the custom object and update the event count on the custom object. Is this possible using an s-control? I have limited programming experience, but can understand code. I appreciate your help in advance.
In my orgonization , a sungle support cases can be handled by multple people,like tier1, tier2 , engineerin support etc. I would to get an idea on how much time each people spend on each cases. The idea i am thinking is when ever a CSR update the case comment they should be entering the time spent and the type of the task he/she did. This way for the same case I will have a history of the time spend. Thus I can get the exact time.
I created a master detail relation ship for tracking this. The problem is that I cannot attach that to the case comment, because case comments are not customizable. Ideally I want to make mandatory when they enter case comments.
Any one colved this problem. One idea I have is to use s-control to popup this time spend dialog when people enter case comments and update the case with that information. I do not have any experience in writing s-control.

Does anyone have a quick example of how to read the dependent picklist metadata through the AJAX toolkit. I have got as far as reading validFor against each picklist value, but it looks empty - I'm guessing I'm casting it incorrectly somehow ?
I'm using beta3.3 and I am also trying to loosely follow the documentation for the Java version in the API docs.
Is it possible to use sforceClient.Login within an sControl rather than sforce.init? I would like to allow my sControl to login as an adminstrative user as a security work-around, but I keep getting errors when calling the Login method.
