Not replacing e.parameter - google-apps-script

I created this script to be able to send an email after a grid has been filled with information. Before the email is sent, another display comes in an warns the user to continue only if the information is correct. At the end the script sends an email to me, with the info entered by the user. The problem is here, when I received the email, the fields that the script is suppose to replace are shown as undefined and no info is there. Any ideas on what is wrong here??
Thank you!

// The following line is REQUIRED for the widget to actually close.

}

To make a widget value show on your e.parameter you need to add it (or a parent panel) as a callback element on the handler. Like this:
function runmyapp() {
//...
var grid = app.createGrid(4, 5).setId('grid');
//...
}
function disc(e){
//...
var grid = app.getElementById('grid');
var handler2 = app.createServerHandler('gsnot').addCallbackElement(grid);
//...
}

Keep Henrique's answer as best one please.
You can try to change your disc(e) function like this :
function disc(e){
var app = UiApp.getActiveApplication();
var html1 = app.add(app.createHTML("<p><p>Hello Expert,</p>"+
"<p>By clicking OK you agree that your information is correct</p>"));
var grid = app.getElementById('grid')
var button = app.createButton('Ok').setId("button");
app.add(button);
var handler3 = app.createServerHandler('gsnot');// use a different name to avoid confusion
handler3.addCallbackElement(grid);
button.addClickHandler(handler3);
return app;}
And, also, there is a typo in your code in this line :
emailTemplate = emailTemplate.replace("TIME", e.parameter.Times).replace("MIN", e.parameter.Minutes).replace("EXP", e.parameter.Name);
Time has no 's' at the end in the original name ! ;)
and, last point, if I where you I wouldn't call show(app) in disc so the UI would keep the data validation while confirming... (but that's a matter of choice ;-)

Google Apps Script ElementCallback: "Error encountered: "parameter" is not defined."

I'm trying to write a small Google Apps Script that will help users navigate and use a Google Spreadsheet. There's a small form they can fill out. Among other things, it will take them to a particular sheet.
However, the callback for the form does not appear to be working. I'm really not sure why. I lifted the the ServerClickHandler/ElementCallBack code from a tutorial that works for me (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VmEPo6Rkq4). I trimmed out the script and tried using different widgets and panels. Nothing seems to work. This is probably something stupid that I just can't see.
When I click the Submit button in the form this script creates, I get the following error:
"Error encountered: "parameter" is not defined."
At the end of my rope. Been debugging this for 3 hours. (Novice programmer -- please excuse my incompetence.)
Thank you in advance for your help.

I see you have a typo

Try replacing the comma with a dot.

Adding a ClientHandler like loading bar to a ServerClickHandler

I'm using the code below to run a a function that takes a while to load. My question is, without a lot of modification, is there an easy way of adding something like a clienthandler so that in the midst of running the function it says something along the lines of "Loading...?"
function doGet(e) {
var app = UiApp.createApplication().setTitle('New app');
var grid = app.createGrid(1, 2);
grid.setWidget(0, 0, app.createLabel('First Name + Last Name (Case Sensitive):'));
grid.setWidget(0, 1, app.createTextBox().setName('userName').setId('userName'));
var panel = app.createVerticalPanel();
panel.add(grid);
var buttonPanel = app.createHorizontalPanel();
var button = app.createButton('Submit');
var submitHandler = app.createServerClickHandler('submit')
submitHandler.addCallbackElement(grid);
button.addClickHandler(submitHandler);
buttonPanel.add(button);
var clearButton = app.createButton('Clear');
var clearHandler = app.createServerClickHandler('clear');
clearButton.addClickHandler(clearHandler);
buttonPanel.add(clearButton);
var statusLabel = app.createHTML("").setId('status').setVisible(false);
panel.add(statusLabel);
panel.add(buttonPanel);
app.add(panel);
return app;
};
function clear() {
var app = UiApp.getActiveApplication();
app.getElementById('userName').setValue('');
app.getElementById('status').setVisible(false)
return app;
};
Yes, indeed. That is what client handlers are for.
function doGet(e) {
var app = UiApp.createApplication().setTitle('New app');
var grid = app.createGrid(1, 2);
grid.setWidget(0, 0, app.createLabel('First Name + Last Name (Case Sensitive):'));
grid.setWidget(0, 1, app.createTextBox().setName('userName').setId('userName'));
/* Have the widget ready */
var statusLabel = app.createHTML("").setId('status').setVisible(false);
var panel = app.createVerticalPanel();
panel.add(grid);
var buttonPanel = app.createHorizontalPanel();
var button = app.createButton('Submit');
var submitHandler = app.createServerClickHandler('submit')
submitHandler.addCallbackElement(grid);
button.addClickHandler(submitHandler);
buttonPanel.add(button);
var clearButton = app.createButton('Clear');
var clearHandler = app.createServerClickHandler('clear');
/* Create the client handler */
var plswait = app.createClientHandler().forTargets(statusLabel).setText('Loading...');
clearButton.addClickHandler(clearHandler).addClickHandler(plswait);
buttonPanel.add(clearButton);
panel.add(statusLabel);
panel.add(buttonPanel);
app.add(panel);
return app;
};
function clear() {
var app = UiApp.getActiveApplication();
app.getElementById('userName').setValue('');
app.getElementById('status').setVisible(false).setText('');
return app;
};
It can be more pleasant if you add an image to your status label, here is an example using a transparent animated gif : (simply replace in Srik's code)
var statusLabel = ui.createHorizontalPanel().add(ui.createImage('https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/211279/loading3T.gif'))
.add(ui.createHTML("Loading...")).setId('status').setVisible(false);// Label + animated gif, the text in the HTML widget can be there from the start.
Edit : just noticed something was missing in Srik's code... the clientHandler should go like this :
var plswait = app.createClientHandler().forTargets(statusLabel).setVisible(true);// and eventually setText(' blah blah...') if you didn't define/change it before/elsewhere
Note : now that you have a clientHandler you could also make use of it to setEnabled(false) the button that triggered it to avoid multiple clicks... simply add .forEventSource().setEnabled(false) to your clientHandler.

Cannot read property "parameter" from undefined error with Logger.log

I am getting "TypeError: Cannot read property "parameter" from undefined." when trying to log e.parameter properties. (I inserted the following lines in the contactMe() function)
Logger.log(e.parameter.textBox);
Logger.log(e.parameter);
The script otherwise works fine, any idea?
function doGet() {
var app = UiApp.createApplication();
var mainPanel = app.createVerticalPanel().setId('mainPanel');
app.add(mainPanel);
mainPanel.add(app.createLabel('Enter your email to sign up'));
var form = app.createHorizontalPanel();
mainPanel.add(form);
var email = app.createTextBox().setName('textBox').setId('textBox');
form.add(email);
var button = app.createButton('Sign up');
form.add(button);
var info = app.createLabel().setVisible(true).setId('info');
mainPanel.add(info);
//handler
var handler = app.createServerHandler('contactMe').addCallbackElement(mainPanel);
button.addClickHandler(handler);
return app;
}
function contactMe(e){
var app = UiApp.getActiveApplication();
Logger.log("testing");
Logger.log(e.parameter);
Logger.log(e.parameter.textBox);
app.getElementById('textBox').setValue('').setStyleAttribute("color", "black");
app.getElementById('info').setText('Thank you!').setStyleAttribute("color", "black");
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('0AqKSxC6f0Cc7dF9aT1lUeXFEcnR2eUFYRGs4Y1NiVVE')
.getSheets()[0];
var range = ss.getRange(ss.getLastRow()+1, 1, 1, 2);
var values = [[new Date(),e.parameter.textBox]];
range.setValues(values);
return app;
}
I just tested your exact code (except the sheet stuff) and it works nicely... except that the logger doesn't show anything when called from a handler function but that's a known issue...
I used the label to check the e.parameter value like this :
app.getElementById('info').setText(e.parameter.textBox).setStyleAttribute("color", "black");
A bit out of the box but i think it should work:
function doGet() {
var app = UiApp.createApplication();
var mainPanel = app.createFormPanel;
app.add(mainPanel);
mainPanel.add(app.createLabel('Enter your email to sign up'));
var form = app.createHorizontalPanel();
mainPanel.add(form);
var email = app.createTextBox().setName('textBox').setId('textBox');
form.add(email);
var button = app.createSubmitButton('Sign up');
form.add(button);
var info = app.createLabel().setVisible(true).setId('info');
mainPanel.add(info);
return app;
}
function doPost(e){
var app = UiApp.getActiveApplication();
//Logger wont work in uiApps
//in Form panels the UI is cleared so you want to write a thank you note
app.add(app.createLabel("Thanks"));
var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openById('0AqKSxC6f0Cc7dF9aT1lUeXFEcnR2eUFYRGs4Y1NiVVE')
.getSheets()[0];
var range = ss.getRange(ss.getLastRow()+1, 1, 1, 2);
var values = [[new Date(),e.parameter.textBox]];
range.setValues(values);
return app;
With kind regards,
Thomas van Latum
I just copy pasted your complete code made a spreadsheet and ran it.
It works just perfectly dont forget your } at the end.....

Google apps script : drop a document in My drive from a form in google site

I use the following code to create a kind of dropbox for my students. The form is embedded on a google site page . When the file is sent in the "dropbox" folder, it is automatically converted in a text file. I did try with a .doc, .xls and .pdf...
Should it be possible to avoid this problem ?
Thanks a lot

It looks as thought he code you've used is intentionally restricting it to text:
var uploadBlob = Utilities.newBlob (assignmentFile, "text/plain",e.parameter.assignmentNumber+"-"+name+"-"+e.parameter.thefile.name );
Simply eliminate that line and redirect your variables like so
var uploadBlob = e.parameter.file;
Should set you straight.
