[SalesForce] render selectOptions as dropdown picklist

I'm having problems getting a list inside of a tag to render as a dropdown picklist. I don't want the picklist to appear as a multi-select picklist, with all possible values displayed as a list, but instead as a standard HTML dropdown where you only see the first value and then click the list to see the rest. Any pointers as to what I'm doing wrong here?

nb this is a simplified version of the controller and page. Lots of extra code omitted that has nothing to do with the problem at hand.

controller code:

public class ots{



 public Id gId = ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('gId');
//system.debug('gId is: '+gId);

 Opportunity o = [SELECT id, Competitor_s__c from Opportunity where Id =:gId];
 public List<SelectOption> comps {get;set;} 
 public List<OpportunityLineItem> olist {get;set;}
 String[] tempstring {get;set;}


public List<SelectOption> getfixedVals(){
    List<SelectOption> stomps = new List<SelectOption>();
    stomps.add(new SelectOption('Test 1','Test 1'));
    stomps.add(new SelectOption('Test 2','Test 2'));
    stomps.add(new SelectOption('Test 3','Test 3'));

    return stomps;

}

page code:

<apex:page controller="ots">
<apex:form>
<apex:outputPanel>
  <apex:selectList id="dropdown"> 
  <apex:selectOptions value="{!fixedVals}" rendered="true">
</apex:selectOptions>
  </apex:selectList>
 </apex:outputPanel>
</apex:form>
</apex:page>

Best Answer

For apex:selectList, set the attribute multiselect as false and size as 1.

<apex:selectList id="dropdown" multiselect="false" size="1"> 
    <apex:selectOptions value="{!fixedVals}" rendered="true">
</apex:selectOptions>

[SalesForce] Split a single field into 2 columns for a VF page

This is untested so you may need to have play, however this should return a List of the RevenueWrapper classes which contains the 4 columns you are looking to use in your VF page:

public class RevenueController{

Map<String, RevenueWrapper> ResultList = new Map<String, RevenueWrapper>(); 

public RevenueController(){
    List<AggregateResult> result =  [
    SELECT FISCAL_YEAR(Date__c) Date, Type__c, sum(Amount__c) Amount
    FROM Revenue__c
    GROUP BY FISCAL_YEAR(Date__c), Type__c];

    for(AggregateResult ar : result){

        RevenueWrapper RW = new RevenueWrapper();

        //If the RevenueWrapper already exists grab it from the Map
        if(ResultList.containsKey(String.valueOf(ar.get('Date')))){
            RW = ResultList.get(String.valueOf(ar.get('Date')));
        }

        //Set the amount
        RW.setAmount(ar);

        //Save back to the Map
        ResultList.put(String.valueOf(ar.get('Date')), RW);
    }
}

public List<RevenueWrapper> getResults() {
    return ResultList.values();
}


public class RevenueWrapper{
    public String revenueDate { get; set; }
    public Integer budgetAmount { get; set; }
    public Integer actualAmount { get; set; }
    public Integer varianceFYPercent { set; }
    public Integer varianceFYAmount { set; }

    public RevenueWrapper(){

    }

    public void setAmount(AggregateResult ar){
        revenueDate = String.valueOf(ar.get('Date'));

            //Set the amount value based on type
        if(ar.get('Type__c') == 'Budget'){
            budgetAmount = Integer.valueOf(ar.get('Amount'));
        }else if(ar.get('Type__c') == 'Actual'){
            actualAmount = Integer.valueOf(ar.get('Amount'));
        }else{ //Catch all for a type that isn't recognised
            return;
        }

    }

    public Integer getVarianceFYAmount(){
        return actualAmount - budgetAmount;
    }

    public Decimal getVarianceFYPercent(){
        if(budgetAmount != 0){
            return Decimal.valueOf((Double.valueOf(actualAmount) / Double.valueOf(budgetAmount)) * 100).setscale(1);
        } else{
            return 0;
        }
    }
}

}

[SalesForce] Filter and search is not working

I see that the code where you find actual accounts is not returned in wrapper format

    public pagereference Search()
    {
        String finalSearchValue = '%' + fullname + '%';
        Accounts = [Select Id, Name, Active__c FROM Account
                    where Name like :finalSearchValue];
        wraplist = new list<wrapData>();  
        for(Account a: Accounts)
        {
            wrapList.add(new wrapData(a));
        }
       return null;
   }

Same way apply for filter method as well.
