    How can we fetch data without using Controller functions on salesforce VisualForce page?

    Posted by sushant on December 13, 2016 at 1:56 PM

    Hi All,

    I am in a scenario where i need to search data using keypress action from a list of accounts and i need to use javascript function in this not controller function.Is there any way to do this.i have written the following code:

    <apex:page controller="SearchAccountJS">
    <script>
    function search(){
    if( name != ''){
    var str=sforce.connection.query('SELECT id,Name,AnnualRevenue FROM Account WHERE Name like \''+name+'%\'');
    records= str.getArray("records");
    alert('1'+records);}
    else{
    var str = sforce.connection.query('SELECT id,Name,AnnualRevenue FROM Account');
    records=str.getArray("records");
    alert('2'+records);}
    </script>
    <apex:form >
    <apex:actionFunction name="ApexMethod" action="search()" rerender="accountTable"/>
    <apex:pageBlock >
    <apex:outputText value="Account Name"/>
    <apex:inputText value="{!name}" onkeyup="ApexMethod" />
    <apex:pageBlockSection id="accountTable" columns="3">
    <apex:pageblocktable value="{!accounts}" var="acc">
    <apex:column value="{!acc.Name}"/>
    <apex:column value="{!acc.id}"/>
    <apex:column value="{!acc.AnnualRevenue}"/>

    </apex:pageblocktable>
    </apex:pageBlockSection>

    </apex:pageBlock>
    </apex:form>
    </apex:page>

    Controller here is only used for printing list of accounts.

    Hi sushant,

    Try the following code

    CONTROLLER

    public with sharing class SearchJavascriptController {

    public list<Account>accountlist { get; set; }
    public SearchJavascriptController()
    {
    accountList = new list<Account>();
    accountList =[Select Name,Id,AnnualRevenue From Account];
    }

    }

     

    VF Page

    <apex:page controller="SearchJavascriptController">
    <html>
    <head>
    <style>

    * {
    box-sizing: border-box;
    }

    #myInput {
    background-image: url('/css/searchicon.png');
    background-position: 10px 10px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    width: 100%;
    font-size: 16px;
    padding: 12px 20px 12px 40px;
    border: 1px solid #ddd;
    margin-bottom: 12px;
    }

    #myTable {
    border-collapse: collapse;
    width: 100%;
    border: 1px solid #ddd;
    font-size: 18px;
    }

    #myTable th, #myTable td {
    text-align: left;
    padding: 12px;
    }

    #myTable tr {
    border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd;
    }

    #myTable tr.header, #myTable tr:hover {
    background-color: #f1f1f1;
    }
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>

    <apex:form id="theForm">
    <apex:pageBlock >
    <h2>My Account</h2>
    <input type="text" id="myInput" onkeyup="myFunction()" placeholder="Search for names.." title="Type in a name">
    </input>
    </apex:pageBlock>
    <table id="myTable">
    <tr>
    <th><h1> ACCOUNT NAME</h1></th>
    <th><h1> ACCOUNT ID</h1></th>
    <th><h1>ANNUAL REVENUE</h1></th>
    </tr>
    <apex:repeat value="{!accountList}" var="acc" id="theRepeat">
    <tr>
    <td>{!acc.name}</td>
    <td>{!acc.id}</td>
    <td>{!acc.AnnualRevenue}</td>
    </tr>
    </apex:repeat>
    </table>
    <script>
    function myFunction() {
    var input, filter, table, tr, td, i;
    input = document.getElementById("myInput");
    console.log(input);
    filter = input.value.toUpperCase();

    table = document.getElementById("myTable");
    tr = table.getElementsByTagName("tr");
    for (i = 0; i < tr.length; i++) {
    td = tr[i].getElementsByTagName("td")[0];
    if (td) {
    if (td.innerHTML.toUpperCase().indexOf(filter) > -1) {

    tr[i].style.display = "";
    } else {
    tr[i].style.display = "none";
    }
    }
    }
    }
    </script>
    </apex:form>
    </body>
    </html>

    </apex:page>

    Besides, the Governor limits, is there a good reason to bring in all of the rows in the Account? Where will they be stored? In some server cache?

    Thanks
