SCRIPT5007: Unable to get property 'toLowerCase' of undefined or null reference

I have a .aspx file working on SharePoint.
We are using IE11, jQuery 2.2.3, jQuery UI 1.11.4, Bootstrap 3.3.6
We had this system for around three years by a third party, which we stopped business. And not able to contact anymore.
It was working fine until a few weeks ago suddenly the page is loading forever and showing this error
SCRIPT5007: Unable to get property 'toLowerCase' of undefined or null reference
Loading page - capture
I have Googled and it seems like the script is waiting for ConfigurationCube.js to load. But since it's not loading, I think it's waiting forever.
/* handles the displaying of all outstanding items requiring approval*/
var TableCreated=0;
var app="";
var teamsArr = [];
var GlobalDivisionsArr = [];
$(document).ready(function(){
//check to see if the Configuration cube Obj Exists and wait until it does
var checkExist = setInterval(function() {
if (sessionStorage["ConfigurationCube"] != null) {
app = JSON.parse(sessionStorage.ConfigurationCube).AppURL;
/**CreateLookupSectionForEmployees("My Winners","Kaizen List","#ViewWinnersTable");**/
//Displayed using the configuration cube.js file
DisplayUserInformation();
popDD("kznSearchCategory",JSON.parse(sessionStorage.ConfigurationCube).ListOfCategories);
IntialPopulationOfApprovedKaizens("","Kaizen List","#kznSearchResultsTable");
//Initialize date range picker
/**$("#kznEditToDate").datepicker();*/
var CubeMin = (JSON.parse(sessionStorage.ConfigurationCube).SubmissionPeriod).split(" ")[0];
clearInterval(checkExist);
}
}, 500);
});
I also tried in IE8, 9, 10, Edge. All not working.
Our company does not allow Chrome or any other browser so we need to get it work in IE..
My current meta tag is like this. Also tried various ways, but did not work.
<meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="IE=edge; charset=UTF-8">
Does anyone have any similar problems?
Any kind of idea is appreciated..
When clicking on the error, it directs to ConfigutationCube.js
//Tools for other pages
function compareStrings(a, b) {
// Assuming you want case-insensitive comparison
a = a.toLowerCase();
b = b.toLowerCase();
return (a < b) ? -1 : (a > b) ? 1 : 0;
}

$(ElementToAppend + " tbody").html(DataTableHtml);
//Create column match with returned results
if (Results.length>0){
$.fn.dataTable.ext.errMode = 'console';
$(ElementToAppend).DataTable({
"dom": 'ftipr',
"responsive": true
});
}
$("body").css("overflow","");
//removes overlayer and loading symbol
$("#OverlayFade").addClass("hidden");
$("#Timer").addClass("hidden");
});
}
This snip of the script has popDDVal, and it looks like 'DivisionList' 'TeamList' 'YearList' is returning null. Since this is null it can not break from the loading overlayer.
I was able to narrow it down to this part.
TeamList.sort(function(a, b) {
return compareStrings(a.FullName, b.FullName);
});
DivisionList.sort(function(a, b) {
return compareStrings(a.FullName, b.FullName);
});
Changed it to this, and it worked. But obviously the sorting is not sorted correctly, but least it works now...
TeamList.sort();
DivisionList.sort();

Instead of passing in an anonymous function pass the function name:
TeamList.sort(compareStrings);
or
DivisionList.sort(compareStrings);

Text to Html conversion in Sharepoint 2010

I have a SharePoint 2010 list of around 198 items. For the first 30 items Text to Html Javascript function successfully converts text code to Html but when I am trying to select next 31 items and go ahead using the pagination the function does not able to convert Html and display only text codes. Does anyone please who have the code handy to make this work? Below is the code used in SharePoint 2010. Thank you.
<script type="text/javascript">
function TextToHTML(NodeSet, HTMLregexp) {
var CellContent = "";
var i=0;
while (i < NodeSet.length){
try {
CellContent = NodeSet[i].innerText || NodeSet[i].textContent;
if (HTMLregexp.test(CellContent)) {NodeSet[i].innerHTML = CellContent;}
}
catch(err){}
i=i+1;
}
}
// Calendar views
var regexpA = new RegExp("\\s*<([a-zA-Z]*)(.|\\s)*/\\1?>\\s*");
TextToHTML(document.getElementsByTagName("a"),regexpA);
// List views
var regexpTD = new RegExp("^\\s*<([a-zA-Z]*)(.|\\s)*/\\1?>\\s*$");
TextToHTML(document.getElementsByTagName("TD"),regexpTD);
// This function is call continuesly every 100ms until the length of the main field changes
// after which the convert text to HTML is executed.
//
var postElemLength = 0;
function PostConvertToHtml()
{
if (postElemLength == document.getElementsByTagName("TD").length)
{
setTimeout(PostConvertToHtml,100);
}
else
{
var regexpTD = new RegExp("^\\s*<([a-zA-Z]*)(.|\\s)*/\\1?>\\s*$");
TextToHTML(document.getElementsByTagName("TD"),regexpTD);
}
}
// Grouped list views
ExpGroupRenderData = (function (old) {
return function (htmlToRender, groupName, isLoaded) {
var result = old(htmlToRender, groupName, isLoaded);
var regexpTD = new RegExp("^\\s*<([a-zA-Z]*)(.|\\s)*/\\1?>\\s*$");
TextToHTML(document.getElementsByTagName("TD"),regexpTD);
// start the periodic callback to check when the element has been changed
if(isLoaded == 'false')
{
postElemLength = document.getElementsByTagName("TD").length;
setTimeout(PostConvertToHtml,100);
}
};
})(ExpGroupRenderData);
// Preview pane views
if (typeof(showpreview1)=="function") {
showpreview1 = (function (old) {
return function (o) {
var result = old(o);
var regexpTD = new RegExp("^\\s*<([a-zA-Z]*)(.|\\s)*/\\1?>\\s*$");
TextToHTML(document.getElementsByTagName("TD"),regexpTD);
};
})(showpreview1);
}</script>
Below is the generated text code which needs to be converted to Html. Thanks.
="<div style='position:relative;display:inline-block;width:100%;'>
<div style='width:100%;display:inline-block;text-align:center;border:1px solid "&Project_Status_clr&";position:absolute;color:"&Project_Status_clr&";'> "&Project_Status&"
</div>
<div style='display:inline-block;width: 100%;background-color:"&Project_Status_clr&";text-align:center;border:1px solid;z-index:-1;filter:alpha(opacity=20);opacity:0.2;'>"&Project_Status&"
</div>
</div>"

When generating a string of HTML in a calculated column in SharePoint 2010, you can change the calculated column's value type to "Number" to get the HTML to render in the list view.

Using Google Apps Script to make Google Forms that have scripts already attached

I am looking for a solution to a novel problem I have encountered in applying google apps scripting to, specifically, the google form product.
Context
The company I work for currently performs Quality Assurance(QA) on software we create for our clients by sending feedback through email.
This software is composed of "Parents" and their "Children". I was asked to look into using Google Forms as a method of creating QA feedback for each piece of software created.
I was able to get very far along in this process leveraging the Google Apps Script documentation. However, I have hit a knowledge barrier when it comes to implementing this in the wild.
Problem
I have one script attached to a very basic form that asks for the Name of the Tool(how we track our QA requests), Name of the Parents, and the name of the children for this software. (Currently I am asking for email as well for ease, but will soon replace with the automatic email grabbing function google apps script has).
This script takes in the responses to this first form and creates a new one using the responses. Now, for building purposes, I have created a second google apps script in the script editor of a form that was created by a submission of the first form. This script takes in the responses of to this second form and creates a third (I know, "formception" right?).
After building all this out and being fairly satisfied with my results I realized a massive error in my thinking. Outside of testing purposes users will be making many new forms from that first one. Each of these new forms will not have the google apps script, that I created for the second form, associated with them and as such will not generate the needed third form.
I am know seeking help identifying a method that will let the code I have written for the second form be automatically added to each new form the first creates. If this is not possible, I am seeking any alternatives. I have considered methods of containing the second google apps script within the first's codebase but I could not find a way to trigger that function on submission of the second form from within the first's script. Any ideas or approaches to consider would be very much appreciated.
Code:
As a note; I do realize this code is a bit messy and very redundant. This was hacked together as a brief proof of concept. I plan to clean it up and modularize it if I can find a solution to the issue above. Before wasting time on that though, I want to determine if what I am trying to do is possible within the limits of Google Apps Script.

*edit for company privacy reasons.

I've been doing something very similar and have mostly been successful.
I was able to ensure code is moved over to newly created forms by creating a blank template form, with the necessary script attached.
When when a new form is needed with this script, I create a copy of the template document and then populate this with the necessary contents.
The only problem I have run into with this is being unable to easily set up triggers for code to run on form submission in these new forms. I have solved this by prompting the user to open the newly created form and click on a menu item I have added to 'initialise permissions'.

Unfortunately there is no way to programmatically attach a script to a form. In general, if you expect a script to be used on multiple forms, docs, etc, it's best to convert it to an add-on. This has the benefit of allowing you to make updates to the script over time, instead of each being a local copy.
Forms making forms making forms is also probably an anti-pattern. What you probably need is a more complex web app, which you can build in Apps Script but is quite a bit more involved.

Removing content created by jquery

(according webshop)
I want to add an function remove, where I remove the whole entry inserted using ajax & jquery, but it is not working as I want to.
Using the following code:
$('#div').on('click', '.orderd', function() {
$(this).remove();
});
function UpdateTotal() {
ToAddHTML = '<h1>Shopping cart</h1>';
Totalprice = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < orders.length ; i++) {
var zoekresultaat = SubMenuItems.filter(function(v) {
return v.submenu_id === orders[i];
})[0];
Totalprice += parseFloat(searched.price);
ToAddHTML += '';
}
ToAddHTML += ''
$("#totalen").html(ToAddHTML);
}
This works, but when I console.log the array "orderd items", it still repeats the orderd items.
So when I click on a different item, the "just-deleted" order is popping up again.
It's kind of hard to explain my current problem, but I hope i've informed enough! For any questions, please ask! ill update my question!

You should remove the ordered id from your array, and recalculate your "basket" when an item is removed.
// =======================================================================
// ! Functie maken die de totalen-lijst bijwerkt
// =======================================================================
function WerkTotalenBij() {
ToeTeVoegenHTML = '<h1>Winkelmandje</h1>';
Totaalprijs = 0;
for (var i = 0; i < Bestellingen.length ; i++) {
var zoekresultaat = SubMenuItems.filter(function(v) {
return v.submenu_id === Bestellingen[i];
})[0];
Totaalprijs += parseFloat(zoekresultaat.price);
// here I put a "data-itemid" attribute to keep a raw reference to the item id
// this ID can be retrieved in the remove handler
ToeTeVoegenHTML += '<div class=besteld id=nummer'+Bestellingen[i]+' data-itemid="'+Bestellingen[i]+'">'+'€'+zoekresultaat.price+' '+zoekresultaat.title+'</br>(verwijder)</div><hr>';
}
ToeTeVoegenHTML += '<br/>Totale prijs per persoon :<br/> € '+Totaalprijs+'<br/>Minimaal 10 personen<br/> Aantal personen:<input type=text width="10px" /><input type="button" value="Ik ben klaar!">';
$("#totalen").html(ToeTeVoegenHTML);
}
$('#totalen').on('click', '.besteld', function() {
var itemID = $(this).data("itemid");
// remove the item ID from the array
var index = Bestellingen.indexOf(itemID);
if (index > -1) {
Bestellingen.splice(index, 1);
}
$(this).remove();
// recalculate orders
WerkTotalenBij();
});
But anyway, this is the typical work where you should rather use for example knockout.js libaray, where you can bind your DOM elements directly to your data, and it's enought to manipulate with your data, the GUI will automatically reflect to the changes. Believe me, it's worth to learn it, you won't regret.

Parse XML to UL

I am trying to use JQuery to parse a sitemap.xml to look like this HTML: http://astuteo.com/slickmap/demo/
After working on it for a few hours I decided I really need some help in the right direction.
the main template it has is this, where each indent is a different directory level:
<ul id="primaryNav" class="col4">
<li id="home">Home</li>
<li>Services
<ul>
<li>Graphic Design</li>
<li>Web Development</li>
<li>Internet Marketing
<ul>
<li>Social Media</li>
<li>Search Optimization</li>
<li>Google AdWords</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Copywriting</li>
<li>Photography</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
I am using a google sitemap.xml which looks like this:
http://meyers.ipalaces.org/sitemap_000.xml
<url>
<loc>http://meyers.ipalaces.org/</loc>
<lastmod>2011-02-26T09:32:18Z</lastmod>
<changefreq>hourly</changefreq>
<priority>0.4</priority>
</url>
<url>
<loc>http://meyers.ipalaces.org/meyers/photos/Explorer</loc>
<lastmod>2011-02-26T09:31:33Z</lastmod>
<changefreq>hourly</changefreq>
<priority>0.2</priority>
</url>
The method I came up with avoids setting everything exactly how it is on the css template, but instead I just focused on getting it to have the correct levels:
What it does is takes the level of a URL goes through each level trying to create the list based on the previous level. So with the example www.example.com/brand/model/product/:
it gets the first [0] element, www.example.com this is level 1 so it checks is there a ul[id=1], if not then run create_ul and append it to #content. Now attach a li to the ul it just made..level 1 is "special" because it has to be created first, thats why I have a lot of if level==1 in the code.
For the next element [1] it gets brand which is level 2. This time it checks
is there a li[id=www.example.com] ul[id=2] if there exist, it will create one and then attach a li to the ul.
This method isn't working out for me at all, it also messes up if say level 8 has the same id and something from level 4. I just need a new idea on how to approach this.
Here is my functions as of now, but im sure I should just scrap most of the code:
function create_ul(level, id, prev_id) {
var ul = $('<ul/>',{
id: level
});
if(level==1) {
$('#content').append(ul);
} else {
$('ul[id='+(level-1)+'] li[id='+prev_id+']').append(ul);
}
}
function create_li(level, id, prev_id){
if (level ==1){
if ($('ul[id='+level+']').length == 0) {
create_ul(level, id, prev_id);
} else if ($('ul[id='+level+'] li[id='+id+']').length > 0) {
return;
}
var li = $('<li/>',{
id: id
});
var a = $('<a/>',{
text: level + " - " + id,
href: "nothing yet"
});
$('ul[id='+level+']').append(li);
return;
}
// If there is no UL for the LI, create it
if ($('li[id='+prev_id+'] ul[id='+level+']').length == 0) {
create_ul(level, id, prev_id);
} else if ($('ul[id='+level+'] li[id='+id+']').length > 0) {
return;
}
var li = $('<li/>',{
id: id
});
var a = $('<a/>',{
text: level + " - " + id,
href: "nothing yet"
});
li.append(a);
$('li[id='+prev_id+'] ul[id='+level+']').append(li);
}
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: "/sitemap_000.xml",
dataType: "xml",
success: parseXml
});
function parseXml(xml) {
URLS = new Array(new Array(), new Array(), new Array());
$(xml).find("loc").each(function(){
var url = $(this).text();
URLS[1].push(url);
url = url.replace("http://", "")
var url_array = url.split("/");
URLS[0].push(url_array);
var rawLastMod = $(this).parent().find('lastmod').text();
var timestamp = rawLastMod.replace(/T.+/g, '');
var lastMod = formatDate(timestamp);
URLS[2].push(lastMod);
});
$(URLS[0]).each(function(i, url_array){
$(url_array).each(function(index, fragment){
var level = index+1;
var id = fragment;
if(index!=0) {
var prev_id = URLS[0][i][index-1];
} else {
var prev_id = null;
}
if(id != "") {
create_li(level, id, prev_id);
}
});
});
}
I have decided to reply on a PHP solution instead of Javascript. I am using this PHP script: http://www.freesitemapgenerator.com/xml2html.html

This is my try to it.
Basically it uses an array to store all the urls' pieces.
For example, the url mytest.url.com/sub1/othersub2.html is handled as:
var map = ['mytest.url.com']['sub1']['othersub2.html'];
This is possible because javascript allows you to index arrays using strings.
Full code (just replace your parseXml function and test it on chrome or firefox with firebug):
<script type="text/javascript">
function parseXml(xml) {
//here we will store nested arrays representing the urls
var map = [];
$(xml).find("loc").each(function () {
//some string cleaning due to bad urls provided
//(ending slashes or double slashes)
var url = this.textContent.replace('http://', '').replace('//', ''),
endingInSlash = (url.substr(url.length - 1, 1) == '/'),
cleanedUrl = url.substr(0, url.length - (endingInSlash ? 1 : 0)),
splittedUrl = cleanedUrl.split('/'), //splitting by slash
currentArrayLevel = map; //we start from the base url piece
for (var i = 0; i < splittedUrl.length; i++) {
var tempUrlPart = splittedUrl[i];
//in javascript you can index arrays by string too!
if (currentArrayLevel[tempUrlPart] === undefined) {
currentArrayLevel[tempUrlPart] = [];
}
currentArrayLevel = currentArrayLevel[tempUrlPart];
}
});
var currentUrlPieces = []; //closure to the recursive function
(function recursiveUrlBuilder(urlPiecesToParse) {
//build up a DOM element with the current URL pieces we have available
console.log('http://' + currentUrlPieces.join('/'));
for (var piece in urlPiecesToParse) {
currentUrlPieces.push(piece);
//recursive call passing the current piece
recursiveUrlBuilder(urlPiecesToParse[piece]);
}
//we finished this subdirectory, so we step back by one
//by removing the last element of the array
currentUrlPieces.pop();
})(map);
}
</script>
