Input fields in view

stwong — Thu, 17 Jul 2014 06:52:54 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to create a view looks like following:

[input ipaddr]         [dropdown list]
[input username]       [Time selector]

I add following code, but all boxes are in the same line. I tried <br></br> or <br/> but didn't work.

<input type="text" token="ipaddr">
  <default>*</default>
</input>
<input type="dropdown" token="bool"> 
        <label></label>
        <choice value="OR">OR</choice>
        <choice value="AND">AND</choice>
        <default>AND</default>
   </input>
  <input type="text" token="username">
    <default>*</default>
  </input>
        <input type="time">
  <default>Last 7 days</default>
</input>

  </fieldset>

Would anyone help? I'm new to Splunk and web programming. Sorry for the newbie question. Thanks a lot.

You can organize your fields in rows and panels like this:

<form>
  <label>fields</label>
  <description/>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <input type="text" token="field1"/>
      <input type="text" token="field2"/>
    </panel>
  </row>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <input type="text" token="field3"/>
      <input type="time" token="field4">
        <label/>
        <default>
          <earliestTime>0</earliestTime>
          <latestTime/>
        </default>
      </input>
    </panel>
  </row>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <table>
        <searchString>| stats count | eval field1="$field1$" | eval field2="$field2$" | eval field3="$field3$" | addinfo</searchString>
        <earliestTime>$field4.earliest$</earliestTime>
        <latestTime>$field4.latest$</latestTime>
      </table>
    </panel>
  </row>
</form>

Thanks for your help. Anyway, seems the behavior is different if i put the inputs in fieldset in my view, e.g.

<fieldset>
 <input type="text" token="ipaddr">
  <default>*</default>
 </input>
 <input type="dropdown" token="bool"> 
  <label></label>
  <choice value="OR">OR</choice>
  <choice value="AND">AND</choice>
  <default>AND</default>
 </input>
 <input type="text" token="username">
  <default>*</default>
 </input>
 <input type="time">
  <default>Last 7 days</default>
 </input>
</fieldset>

Would you help? Thanks again.

Take them out of the <fieldset> tag and put them in <row><panel> tags instead. Start a new <row> as needed.
