Hello. I am using odoo 11.

I have this simple button in my view:

<button string="CLICK ME CMON" id="my_fancy_id"/>

Suppose there is no javascript to be executed when the user clicks on it. I just want a simple bare html button which does nothing when clicked.

When I click it, i get:

Errore:
TypeError: this.do_execute_action(...) is undefined

i suppose odoo is looking for some action/listener/handler attached to the button, and as it does not find it, it throws the error.

I see two possible solutions: finding a way to tell Odoo to ignore the problem and stop looking for listeners/actions/etc, or defining a dummy one so to make him happy. A pure client-side solution would be perfect for my case (i.e. without having to define calls to server code and the like).

Thank you in advance for your help....!

Hi,

button defines in a view with type attribute has 2 possible values, or use other attribute like special="cancel" ...  without

to use a type you have choice between object or action

object is to make reference to a python function, action to an action to define in xml, the name attribute is the name of the function or %(xml_id)d of action

for your case, use object and define a function in the model used for your view

in xml :

<button string="Save" name="button_save" type="object"/>


in python, in class model of your view:


    @api.multi

    def button_save(self):

        self.ensure_one()

        pass

Hello Deniele,

Every button in odoo backend is always bind with an action or method(object).

hence it odoo backend is giving you these because you haven't bind your button with action or method properly.

Thanks.
