Short Notation for Cuurent Section and Current Page

[tekhong]

Hi all

Just to check if there is anyway to have short form notation of the current section or the equivalent of VFP "Thisform."
This will help to make coding easier to read as most of the reference to the DOM object will be in the current section.
Similarly, is there a shorthand notation for the current page?

Your advice is much appreciated

Thanks & Best Regards

Hi,

Something similiar to This and Thisform in VFP for the App, Page, Section, Field and Gadget:

loMyControl = Lianja.activepage.activesection.activecontrol

For active page:

oactivePage = Lianja.activePage
nameactivePage = Lianja.activePage.id

Section:

oactiveSection = Lianja.get("mypage").activesection

Also

Lianja.localstorage.setItem( key, value )

Lianja.sessionstorage.setItem( key, value )

And the corresponding getItem() on these work between desktop and web//mobile
_screen is VFP desktop specific and does not exist in the web client.

Note that Lianja.activepage is not available in web/mobile.

To help in web/mobile, I suggest using the option in Lianja of using VSCode as the editor, with the JSHint extension installed. Once you have typed Lianja.get("mypage.mysection.mycontrol"), from then on you will see options as you begin to type Lianja.get(" which include those that you have typed previously. Saves a lot of typos (although if you have previously typed a statement with a typo, you will see that too).
