How to do ctrl+f in webdriver/java? I have to do in a way where there are 2 excel sheets, each excel sheet contains list of email addresses. So need to copy each cell email, and search it in a web page. If it finds that email address in the web page then copy the corresponding data and save it in another excel sheet.
I know how to do ctrl+f5 using web driver, but ctrl+f is littly tricky. Any help is appreciated.
You can do it by using the Keys.chord() method:
driver.findElement(By.xPath("your-xpath")).sendKeys(Keys.chord(Keys.CONTROL, "f"));
or by using the Action class and the unicode representation:
Actions action = new Actions();
action.keyDown(Keys.CONTROL).sendKeys(String.valueOf('\u0066')).perform();
For a full list of unicode characters read more here.
if(driver.findElement(By.XPath("//tagname[text()='mailID']")).isDisplayed){
// write your code
}
or
if(!driver.findElements(By.XPath("//tagname[text()='mailID']")).isEmpty){
// write your code
}

The PDFBox v2.0 is still growing and doesn't have any nice and easy examples to get started with.
I need to create a multi-page PDF dynamically from an object; with TableOfContents and Headings!
How do I create Numbered Headings? (Increasing the font size is not an option because the TableOfContents has to know their location[page number] in the document)
Example:
Table of Contents
Document Title Here
1- Intro......................................................1
2- Heading....................................................2
2.1- SubHeading1 ........................................2
2.2- SubHeading2 ........................................5
Page 1
Document Title Here
1- Intro
This is an intro to the document....
2- Heading
2.1- Subheading
Some text here...
........
Page 2
I have two problems:
I followed this example here: PDFBox - how to create table of contents but it didn't create any TableOfContents.
I'm getting this exception:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Destination of a GoTo action must be a page dictionary object
at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.interactive.action.PDActionGoTo.setDestination(PDActionGoTo.java:90)
I removed the PDActionGoTo as the answer comment said; it didn't give any exception but it didn't create any TableOfContents
I have no idea how to make headings!
I am creating a web application which will accept some inputs from user (like name, age, address etc) and generate some predefined forms with filled information for user to download and print.
For example, an Application Form for driving license or something along those lines. The backend will have the format information about the document to be generated and other information will be gathered from user from front-end.
I am going to use Play Framework 2.5 for this and Java/Scala as programming language. But right now I am not aware if there are any free libraries/APIs that I can use to achieve this document generation.
I should be able to manipulate the font size, style, indentations, paragraphs, page borders, page numbers, alignments, document headers and footers, page size (A4, Legal etc) some other basic stuff. And I need documents in format that are widely supported for editing and printing purposes. Like PDF, DOCX for example. DOCX is preferred so user can edit something after downloading the document before taking a print out.
I have used the apache POI library to parse and create ms word documents (including docx) files:
http://www.tutorialspoint.com/apache_poi_word/apache_poi_word_quick_guide.htm
It's not amazing but it's the best I've found :)
I have used docx4j.jar which simply converts xhtml to docx.
What you can do for your requirement is save your format information as xhtml template and place input from form (like name,age,address etc) into the template at runtime.
This is a sample code to refer from this link
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
String xhtml=
"<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"width:100%;\"><tbody><tr><td>test</td><td>test</td></tr><tr><td>test</td><td>test</td></tr><tr><td>test</td><td>test</td></tr></tbody></table>";
// To docx, with content controls
WordprocessingMLPackage wordMLPackage = WordprocessingMLPackage.createPackage();
XHTMLImporterImpl XHTMLImporter = new XHTMLImporterImpl(wordMLPackage);
wordMLPackage.getMainDocumentPart().getContent().addAll(
XHTMLImporter.convert( xhtml, null) );
wordMLPackage.save(new java.io.File("D://sample.docx"));
}
I am populating URL into Excel sheet through java code. But the hyperlink is not enabled if I populate through Java code.
If I type URL into Excel sheet directly, hyperlink automatically coming. Could you please let me know why it is not coming if I populate through code.
You may need Worksheet_followhyperlink enabled in the spreadsheet through vba. I've encountered this populating hyperlinks into Excel before. Pop this into the sheet with the links:
Private Sub Worksheet_followhyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
Application.EnableEvents = True
Target.Follow
' Any other code you might need.
End Sub
I have a pdf form and I am writing some data to the pdf fields through code using iText & Java. I want to get Custom Format Script of the fields so that I get to know the valid inputs for the pdf fields. Thanks
Update:
OOPS,
I misinterpreted your question. I assumed you wanted to add JavaScript to an existing PDF so that the user can add valid data.
What you are looking for is a way to extract the JavaScript from an existing PDF. You already get an impression on how to do that in the answer I referred to in my previous answer. For JavaScript added to specific fields, you need to inspect the Additional Actions:
AcroFields form = stamper.getAcroFields();
AcroFields.Item fd = form.getFieldItem("married");
// Get the PDF dictionary of the YES radio button and add an additional action
PdfDictionary dictYes =
(PdfDictionary) PdfReader.getPdfObject(fd.getWidgetRef(0));
PdfDictionary yesAction = dictYes.getAsDict(PdfName.AA);
if (yesAction == null) yesAction = new PdfDictionary();
yesAction.put(new PdfName("Fo"),
PdfAction.javaScript("setReadOnly(false);", stamper.getWriter()));
dictYes.put(PdfName.AA, yesAction);
// Get the PDF dictionary of the NO radio button and add an additional action
PdfDictionary dictNo =
(PdfDictionary) PdfReader.getPdfObject(fd.getWidgetRef(1));
PdfDictionary noAction = dictNo.getAsDict(PdfName.AA);
If noAction isn't null, you'll need to examine the different values in that dictionary. For instance: the /Bl entry (if present) will give you the action that is triggered on blur, the /Fo entry (if present) will give you the action that is triggerd on focus, and so on.
If you want to get the document-level JavaScript, you need to fetch the appropriate entry from the name tree in the Catalog of the PDF document. It is hard to explain in words, but if you download RUPS and inspect the PDF, you should be able to find the different JavaScript snippets. If we look at the file created using my incorrect answer (see below), we get this:
This shows that you need something like this:
PdfDictionary catalog = reader.getCatalog();
PdfDictionary names = catalog.getAsDict(PdfName.NAMES);
PdfDictionary javascript = names.getAsDict(PdfName.JAVASCRIPT);
Once you have this javascript dictionary, you can extract all the Javascript snippets.
Incorrect answer:
I assume that you know how to write JavaScript (or more correctly ECMAScript). JavaScript in PDF is very similar to JavaScript in HTML. I assume you don't need help to write some JavaScript methods to check if input is valid.
If that is the case, you only need to know how to add the JavaScript to an existing PDF file. For instance: I have this PDF file named form_without_js.pdf to which I want to add some javascript, for instance extra.js. In extra.js, you'll find a method that sets a field to read-only as well as a method that validates a field: if the value of married is yes and there is no value for partner, an alert is shown, otherwise the form is submitted. You'll have to write similar JavaScript depending on the nature of your form and which fields you want to check.
The AddJavaScriptToForm example shows you how to add these JavaScript methods to the existing PDF, resulting in the file form_with_js.pdf.
This is done with PdfReader and PdfStamper:
PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(src);
PdfStamper stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, new FileOutputStream(dest));
// do stuff
stamper.close();
reader.close();
Where it says // do stuff, you need to do two things:
[1.] You need to add the JavaScript snippet like this:
PdfWriter writer = stamper.getWriter();
writer.addJavaScript(Utilities.readFileToString(RESOURCE));
[2.] You need to add some JavaScript to specific fields to call the custom methods you've added.
In the example, you see a case where we add JavaScript as an additional action. You also see how we add a new button with a specific action. It's up to you to decide what is needed in your specific case.
I have a word document with checkboxes in it, and I want to determine whether these are ticked or not and use these results with java. I have tried using a WordExtractor with Apache POI but it didn't seem to include the result.
If I save the docx in txt format it replaces each checkbox with a corresponding 0 or 1, which is ideal, but I don't know how to do that programmatically.
Seems that you are looking for FtCblsSubRecord class (I didn't try it):
