Creating & Using Custom Controllers Trailhead Challenge Issue?

Greetings, I cannot seem to get this to work. I have my var set to cs, as it only works with that, rather, as I attempt to set it, I get the error message of var not set correctly. Please advise. Here's the code. The apex code appears correct.

<apex:page controller="NewCaseListController">
    <apex:form >
        <apex:pageBlock title="Case List" id="Case_list">
         <apex:repeat value="{!NewCases}" var="cs">
         <table style="width:1000px;">
          
<tr>
 <apex:repeat value="{!NewCases}" var="cs">
        <apex:outputLink value="https://na16.salesforce.com/{!cs.Id}">{!cs.CaseNumber}</apex:outputLink>
         <apex:outputLink value="{!cs.CaseNumber}">{!cs.CaseNumber}</apex:outputLink>
        </apex:repeat> 
             </tr>
        </table>
             </apex:repeat>
        </apex:pageBlock>
    </apex:form>
</apex:page>

Hi,
One of the challenge requirements is: "The apex:repeat component must refer to the var attribute as 'case'.".
If you change your var to 'case' instead of 'cs' you should be able to pass the challenge. Thanks and hope this helps.

Hello...one of the requirements of the challange is to extract only cases with status 'New'. This filter is missing from your code.

Hey All, I just wanted to shere the code that I have created and it was working for me.:

_____________________________________________________________________

Controller - "NewCaseListController"

public class NewCaseListController {

list<case> newcase = new list<case>();
    public list<case> GetNewCases() 
    {
    newcase = [Select Id,CaseNumber from case where status='New'];

        return newcase;
    }
}

_______________________________________________________________________


VF - 'NewCaseList'

<apex:page controller="NewCaseListController">
  <apex:repeat var="case" value="{!NewCases}">
  <li>
  <apex:outputLink value="/{!case.id}">{!case.id}</apex:outputLink>
    {!case.CaseNumber}
  </li>
  </apex:repeat>
</apex:page>

I understand <apex:outputLink value="https://ap2.salesforce.com/{!case.Id}">{!case.CaseNumber}</apex:outputLink>
but
what does <apex:outputLink value="{!case.CaseNumber}">{!case.CaseNumber}</apex:outputLink> achieve?

@nilesh in query you need to check for status.

public class NewCaseListController {
public list<case> getNewCases(){
String st='new';
List<case> results = Database.query('select id, CaseNumber from case where status=:st');  //status="new" was giving error sometime

return results;
}
}

Hi MedhanieHabte,

As your requirement, I have written this code.You want to find all new cases which status are 'new', right?
Please try once this code.


<apex:page controller="NewCaseListController">
     <apex:pageblock title="All New Cases List" id="all_cases_list"> 
        <apex:repeat var="case" value="{! newCases }" rendered="true"  id="all_cases_list"  >
            <li>
                <apex:outputLink value="/{!case.ID}" >
                    <apex:outputText value="{!case.CaseNumber}"/>
                </apex:outputLink>
            </li>
        </apex:repeat>        
    </apex:pageblock>
</apex:page>


Controller-----------

public class NewCaseListController {
   
    public List<Case> getNewCases() { 
        List<Case> results = Database.query(
            'SELECT Id, CaseNumber FROM Case WHERE Status = 'New');
        return results;
    }
}

I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.
