FireFox, Role Based Authentication, JQuery WSP, SSRS, Cross Site Lookup


1.       Firefox à Authentication pop-up keeps popping up
Need to disable Loopbackcheck, follow instructions here:

This also should be tried (that is allowing NTLM authentication for your site in FireFox)

2.       Implementation of RBAC in sharepoint and the RBAC to be accessed via services. One user might be in multiple groups and highest role and access rights to be applied to the user on authentication

For this, first of all, get the list of groups the user is part of:
https://sanjivblog.wordpress.com/2010/04/25/how-to-get-all-groups-for-specific-user-in-sharepoint-using-c/
Then, once you get this list, you need to then should have configured somewhere (you can have a simple Custom List – which has the list of Groups along with a Rank Column for example) as to which group has got higher permissions than the other.
So in the result, if you get Members and Owners, then Owners group is higher, so take the access rights applied for the Owners group.
Thus, there is no single way in which you can get all the groups where the user is part of and also automatically get the group where he has the highest privileges.

3.       One step deployment to include jquery scripts applied in pages

Instead of including inline scripting, you can refer to a .js file and that .js file can be packaged and deployed as a WSP.
Alternatively, you can create a Custom WebPart, which includes these scripts and you have added this WebPart to your page.
When deployed, the Custom WebPart will include the script and thus the functionality will work.

4.       Sharepoint SSRS deployment

This has steps and details on how you can do this

5.       Look-up across website

Using External Content Types with Stored Procedures with Input Parameters

Image
You must have tried External Content Types - the exciting new feature in SharePoint 2010 to connect to an external SQL table and provide a list where it lists, creates, updates data straight into the SQL table. People always wonder, how do you get a ECT to work with a Stored Procedure, one that has input parameters. You could do it this way... Step 1: In your SharePoint Designer 2010, create a new external content type Step 2: Connect to your SQL Server and then make sure you see the Routines (your stored procedures must be listed here) Step 3: Rt Click on the Stored Procedure name and create operations for "Read Item" and "Read List" - both are required for the External Content Type's SharePoint list to be created. During both these wizards, in the Input Parameters, your SP's Input Parameter will be listed. Here, you need to create a filter, which sends out it's value to the SP's filter. For example, if your SP's Input Parameter is @Emp...

Validate a SharePoint Date Field against Current Date in Javascript

Consider the following scenario: You have a SharePoint Site which has its regional settings set to English (UK) - so that the date format becomes dd/mm/yyyy in all date pickers You would like to validate a particular date field in your List or Document Library against the current date If the validation does not pass, you should not allow the form to save So what the script does is: Uses the sputility (check my previous posts and also look at http://sputility.codeplex.com) to get the particular SharePoint date field It comes out as a date datatype, so I cast it to string Since the format is in dd/mm/yyyy and Javascript compare and date functions work only with mm/dd/yyyy, I am converting them back to that format then using UTC string conversions and comparing... Enjoy! <script type="text/javascript"> function PreSaveAction() {  var createdate = SPUtility.GetSPField('Date of Creation').GetValue();  var createdatestr=createdate.toString();      ...
