The Question:
I used IFraime filed and use my custom page as editor e.g. http://domain/layouts/MyEditor.html. How can I know:
- Which item is selected in Content Editor?
- Which language is selected in Content Editor?
- Which version of an item is selected in Content Editor?
Sitecore version used: 5.2.0.10
The Answer:
When Sitecore executes a custom page the following parameters are passed:
http://localhost/layouts/Myeditor.html?id=%7bBF0BB4BC-10DE-4F02-9FA1-11EE18AC1404%7d&vs=1&la=da
Use the following code for the MyEditor.html page to show all parameters:
using Sitecore;
using Sitecore.Configuration;
using Sitecore.Data;
using Sitecore.Data.Items;
using Sitecore.SecurityModel;
using Sitecore.Collections;
using Sitecore.Links;
…
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Sitecore.Data.Database dbMaster = Sitecore.Configuration.Factory.GetDatabase("master");
Sitecore.Data.Items.Item itm = dbMaster.Items[Request.QueryString.Get("id")];
string language = Request.QueryString.Get("la");
string version = Request.QueryString.Get("vs");
if (itm != null)
{
Response.Write(
"ID is " + itm.ID.ToString()
+ "<br/> Language is :" + language
+ "<br/> Version is :" + version);
}
}
using Sitecore.Configuration;
using Sitecore.Data;
using Sitecore.Data.Items;
using Sitecore.SecurityModel;
using Sitecore.Collections;
using Sitecore.Links;
…
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Sitecore.Data.Database dbMaster = Sitecore.Configuration.Factory.GetDatabase("master");
Sitecore.Data.Items.Item itm = dbMaster.Items[Request.QueryString.Get("id")];
string language = Request.QueryString.Get("la");
string version = Request.QueryString.Get("vs");
if (itm != null)
{
Response.Write(
"ID is " + itm.ID.ToString()
+ "<br/> Language is :" + language
+ "<br/> Version is :" + version);
}
}
