[SalesForce] 3 Column page layout on Custom Object

I am trying to create a visualforce page for a Custom object but I am getting an error on the VF page: Error: Syntax error. Found 'Sales_Rebate__c.'
I am trying to create a VF to allow for 3 columns on the page layout.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

<apex:page standardController="Sales_Rebate__c">
   <apex:form >
      <apex:pageBlock title="Early Buy Percentages"> 
           <apex:pageBlockSection title="My Section" columns="3" collapsible="true">
                <apex:outputField value="{!Sales_Rebate__c. Growth_Tier_1_1__c}"/>
                <apex:outputField value="{!Sales_Rebate__c. Growth_Tier_1_2__c}"/>
                <apex:outputField value="{!Sales_Rebate__c. Growth_Tier_1_3__c}"/>
                <apex:outputField value="{!Sales_Rebate__c.Growth_Tier_2_1__c}"/>
                <apex:outputField value="{!Sales_Rebate__c.Growth_Tier_2_2__c}"/>
                <apex:outputField value="{!Sales_Rebate__c.Growth_Tier_2_3__c}"/>
                <apex:outputField value="{!Sales_Rebate__c. Growth_Tier_3_1__c}"/>
                <apex:outputField value="{!Sales_Rebate__c. Growth_Tier_3_2__c}"/>
                <apex:outputField value="{!Sales_Rebate__c. Growth_Tier_3_3__c}"/>
              </apex:pageBlockSection> 
         </apex:pageBlock> 
  </apex:form>
</apex:page>

Best Answer

There are few spaces after this Sales_Rebate__c. in <apex:outputField>. That's why the issue is occurring.

Regarding 3 columns display, you can use <apex:PanelGrid>.

[SalesForce] Using transient keyword to store password in hierarchy custom setting

Because your myPref property is transient the initialisation you perform in the constructor won't round trip when the page posts back.

When I've used transient and a protected custom setting I use separate properties that are transient and then only work with the custom setting in the post back method.

Controller

public with sharing class TestCustomSettings {

    // transient to ensure they are not transmitted as part of the view state
    public transient String password1 {get; set;}
    public transient String password2 {get; set;}

    public PageReference save() {
        // I've changed this to getInstance() rather than getValues()
        TestR__c myPref = TestR__c.getInstance(UserInfo.getOrganizationId());

        if(myPref == null) {
            myPref = new TestR__c();
            myPref.SetupOwnerId = Userinfo.getOrganizationId();
        }

        myPref.Password1__c = password1;
        myPref.Password2__c = password2;

        // Note that by using upsert you don't need to check if the Id has been set. 
        upsert myPref;

    }
}

Visualforce page

You can use inputSecret rather than inputField in the Visualforce page so that the browser will mask the input.

<apex:inputSecret value="{!password1}" size="10"/>
<apex:inputSecret value="{!password2}" size="10"/>

[SalesForce] Having problems passing a variable and displaying a Message

I think I can answer this part of your question real quick:

2) The second problem I'm having is that the "ApexPages.addMessage" doesn't work. No messages are displayed in any of the cases. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

At the second line of your initial VF page, needs to have the following: <apex:pagemessages/>

In essence, you don't have anyplace for the the messages to appear! Once you add that line, any error messages should begin to appear. Once you get your error messages working for you, I suspect you'll be able to sort out the root cause of your other problem.

That said, off hand, I don't think you want to be returning anything from that IF statement. Removing the return null appears to be what you need to do. It would seem you've detected that sFlag=true;? For the logic in your controller, do you also want to set it as such? Unfortunately, I don't have time right now to go through all of your code, but I hope this helps get you moving along and pointed in the right direction. :)
