Thanks for this code snippet!
Do you have any idea how to support folders? Currently it’s always redirecting to the root folder. I tried to append the rootfolder to the ‘relUrl’ but that doesn’t seem to fix it for folders.

function buildCustomViewMenuSucceeded() {

//Get the rootfolder from the querystring + escape
rtFolder = encodeURIComponent(getParameterByName(“RootFolder”));
alert(rtFolder);
var viewInfo, currViewObj, viewEnumerator, view;
viewInfo = [];
currViewObj = {};
viewEnumerator = this.customViewCollection.getEnumerator();
while (viewEnumerator.moveNext()) {
view = viewEnumerator.get_current();
theRelViewUrlWithParams=view.get_serverRelativeUrl()+’?RootFolder=’+rtFolder;
viewInfo.push({title:view.get_title(),guid:view.get_id(),relUrl:theRelViewUrlWithParams });
}
for(var key in viewInfo){
matchingPathName=unescape(location.pathname)+’?RootFolder=’+rtFolder;

checkbool = matchingPathName == viewInfo[key].relUrl;
if(checkbool){
currViewObj = viewInfo[key];
}
}
buildMenu(currViewObj);
}

Kr,

Francis

It works like a charm. As a note, I am using a second CEWP with the following HTML to show the ribbon on that page as well as the view:

setTimeout(function() {
var elem = document.getElementById(“MSOZoneCell_WebPartWPQ2″);
if(elem != null) {
var dummyevent = new Array();
dummyevent["target"] = elem;
dummyevent["srcElement"] = elem;
WpClick(dummyevent);
}
}, 2000);

I have spent a long time trying to find out how to get the view selector back. This is something that should be standard in SP 2010.

This file is interpreted it as a web page and not as text, you should right click the file and select “save target as”.

I am just used to seeing the code show up directly from the .txt file, and it’s blank for me now with an object expected error. I just did a “view source” though and saved it as a .js file. So, I’m good to go now. Thanks for sharing!

Sorry for the extra question.

I have tested it and it does for me.

Thanks!
