XPages tip: Programmatically jumping to a page on a View or Pager control02/24/2010 07:30 AMThe article shows you how to get a class in JS in the Designer so that you can browse the methods that are available to you. So for example if you want to jump to a certain page for a View control or Pager control you can use this "gotoPage()" method.
For a Pager:
var pager:com.ibm.xsp.component.xp.XspPager = getComponent("pager1");
pager.gotoPage(1); //0 is first page etc.,.
For a View:
var view1:com.ibm.xsp.component.xp.XspViewPanel=getComponent("viewPanel2");
view1.gotoPage(1);
Here's a screen shot of the script editor and some of the methods available for a View control. As you can see there is also gotoFirstPage(), gotoLastPage(), gotoNextPage(), gotoPreviousPage(), and gotoRow().

Great find!
I posted something on the Domino 8.5 forum, not too long ago, looking for a solution like this. I need to reset the view/pager to the first page when the filtering changed.

Do you know where i can find the current page?
How about the number of pages available?
I went through the list of methods and didn't see anything.

Hello,
Great article, thank you.
The only remaining question is, how to handle categorized views: e.g. on the first page I open three categories, then I open a document from the third opened category, which moved to the second page of the view by opening the categories. Closing the opened document takes back to the first page of the view instead of the second, because opened categories have not been stored.
I could not find any way to store the categories opened by the user, to make possible navigate back exactly the same position (view row) from the document was opened, with the categories opened. This currently works only in standard Notes client, unfortunately.
Opening Xpages documents in new window can be an option, however this method can not be applied to Notes client.
How to use gotoRow()? Totally agre with this question. From where should we get the parameter in this situation? By opening and closing categories the row number of the document always change.

gotoPage only seems to work if the page you are going to is a link on the pager. e.g. if the pager shows pages 1-8, gotoPage(10) will go to page 8.
I think you can find the current page from the pager.
e.g.
pager: com.ibm.xsp.component.xp.XspPager
repeat: com.ibm.xsp.component.xp.XspDataIterator
