Help with formatting parameters in html output?

Hi --
I would like to use a style sheet to adjust the way that javadoc displays lists of parameters below each method. In the HTML output, the code around the parameter name and description looks like this:
<dd><code>filterContainers</code> - True if the containers within the database
are to be considered individually during task assignment; false if the entire database is to be assigned as a single task.
</dd>
I apologize if this is basic CSS question, but I don't understand how to change the way 'filterContainers' is formatted -- maybe make it italic or something. I was also hoping to increase the padding below each parameter name/description because they seem to squished together.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Jen

Add this to stylesheet.css to make "filterContainers" italic:
dl dd dl dd code {
font-style: italic;
}This adds space below lines inside dd
dl dd dl dd {
padding-bottom: 3px;
}(You could change it to padding-top to add the space above instead.)
The sequence "dl dd dl dd code" is the nested hierarchy of HTML tags relative to body.
Here are the CSS elements defined above: (CSS 2.0)

Help with URL Parameters and HTML DataSet please.

Hello everybody!
Looking at the example page: "Using URL Parameters to Control Data Regions", towards the bottom it gives an example of "Set by Product Name", from an XML DataSet using the following sample code:
    //Data set for the second example. var ds2 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("../../demos/products/products.xml", "products/product");    //If the URL parameter 'product' has a value, set the XPath that includes a filter and then load the data. if (params.product){    ds2.setXPath("products/product[name = '"+params.product+"']");    ds2.loadData(); }
Can anyone please explain how to amend this to work with a HTML Dataset rather than XML?
The first example on the page (Set by RowID) works unchanged for the HTML DataSet, but I don't know what I should replace the 'setXPath' line with.
I see this has been asked before, but I'm afraid I can't find any answer that works (or, more often, that I can understand properly!)
Grateful for any suggestions.
Len

Wow! Thanks Ben.
I hadn't thought about using Stacked Containers.
I'll test this out tonight and let you know how I get on.
Cheers,
Len
A few days later and at last I've been able to test your suggestions.
I think I must be doing something wrong as the links and content don't work at all:
http://www.myosanthe-bernhard-huber.com/html/stack1.php
I know that the stacked containers do work (http://www.myosanthe-bernhard-huber.com/html/stack0.php), so I guess there are some errors in the coding somewhere.
Would you mind reviewing, please?
The important thing for me (in this case, anyway) is to get the called page's content using its 'Ref', and I'm not sure what benefit there is in using stacked containers as opposed to master-detail containers.
The master-detail method works reasonably well for me at
http://www.myosanthe-bernhard-huber.com/html/fotoalbum.php and sub-pages.
Perhaps I am betraying my lack of knowledge, but as I said in my original post, I think that I just need the HTMLDataSet equivalent to:
    //Data set for the second example.
var ds2 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("../../demos/products/products.xml", "products/product");
   //If the URL parameter 'product' has a value, set the XPath that includes a filter and then load the data.
if (params.product){
   ds2.setXPath("products/product[name = '"+params.product+"']");
   ds2.loadData();
which as you can see uses an XMLDataSet, but does exactly what I need.
(see http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/data_region/DataWithURLParams.html)
Thanks again for your help, Ben.

Help with interpreting explain plan (dbms_xplan) output

Hi all,
I'm trying to get to grips with reading and interpreting the explain plan or dbms_xplan output, and so I hope someone can help with the output below.
So, with the explain shown below, does it mean that...
a) it starts with step 8 and sends all rows to the nested loop in step 5
b) it only sends (or thinks it sends) 1 row to step 5 from step 8
c) For each row supplied from step 5, there will be an index lookup at step 8 to access the table at step 6
d) Step 8 only gets (or think it gets) 1 row
If it does mean that only 1 row is expected by the optimizer, and yet the full table scan should return 150,000 records, and the table has up to date statistiucs, what else would cause the cardinality to be so far off?
If it doesn't mean it will return 1 row then what does it mean ?

Help with Formatted Search with Date

Hi experts,
I need help with the following query. In the PO item level, I want to take a user entered date and add 6 weeks to it. For example, after a user enters in a date in the field u_Date1, then U_date2 will populate with U_date1 + 6 weeks.
I can get the query to copy the U_Date1 field. However, once I add 6 weeks (+42) then I get an internal error. Please advise.
select $[por1.u_date1] + 42
from por1 t0
inner join t1 on t0.docentry = t1.docentry
where t0.linenum = $[por1.linenum] and
t1.docentry = $[opor.docentry]
Thank you for your help. i am on 2007A PL 47.

Hi Jane Liang ,
you can try this : Select DateAdd(day,42,$http://por1.u_date1 ) from por1 t0 .....

Help with new site index.html

I'm new to website design/hosting/etc so I apologize for the newbie questions. I'm using DW8
I have a hobby site on a free host and have been using it for 2+ years without problems. Recently I decided to re-design the website. When I uploaded the new website in place of the old one the host kept saying that the file was not found. So I re-loaded the old site and everything worked fine. So just for kicks I uploaded the NEW index.html file in place of the old one, and again the website could not be found.
So is there something actually wrong with my NEW index.html root file, or do I need to do something else in DW to upload a new site in place of an old one? I have no idea what could be wrong with the new index file; I created it just like I did the old one.
Thanks in advance, joel

Before you upload next time click on Site->Advanced->FTP log. See if you get any errors with that.
If you are not and the files are uploading ok, you may need to get in touch with your host. If something is not working on the account it could be something on their end, whether it be configuration errors or some other random occurrence.

Help with formatting multiline output into comma delimited ordered output

I have 2 tables:
SQL> desc table_1;
Name Null? Type
===================================
ID NOT NULL NUMBER
DATA1 NOT NULL VARCHAR2(440)
DATA2 NOT NULL VARCHAR2(1024)
SQL> desc table_2;
Name Null? Type
===================================
ID NOT NULL NUMBER
ATTNAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2(255)
ATTVAL                          VARCHAR2 (4000)
DATA1 NOT NULL CHAR(1)
DATA2                          VARCHAR2 (2000)
DATA3                          VARCHAR2 (255)
I need to get ATTVAL from where e.g. ATTNAME=att_name1 to ATTNAME=att_name6 from every entry (with its unique ID), and format the output into comma delimited format in e.g. this order:
att_val1,att_val3,att_val6,att_val4,att_val5,att_val6
So e.g. for entry with ID "9812" from the query below, the output I need would be:
187,179,156,134,1436,1809
What I've got so far is as follows:
SQL> SELECT id,attname,attval FROM table_2 WHERE id in (SELECT id from table_1 WHERE data2='xxx')
AND attname in ('att_name1','att_name3','att_name6','att_name4','att_name5','att_name6');
ID               ATTNAME               ATTVAL
===============================
1970 att_name1 123
1970 att_name2 abc
1970 att_name3 1234
1970 att_name4 def
1970 att_name5 1134
1970 att_name6 ghj
9812 att_name4 134
9812 att_name5 1436
9812 att_name3 156
9812 att_name1 187
9812 att_name2 179
9812 att_name6 1809
77 att_name1 1980
77 att_name5 1867
77 att_name3 174
77 att_name4 1345
77 att_name2 1345
77 att_name6 1345
but I don't know how to format the output comma limited in certain order. (or if this is the best way of getting the data out)
Would someone have idea how this could be done?

Thanks Frank!
I got much further now :).
I've got Oracle 10g So I used the "SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH" for my query.
Now I get the output in the format I want, however, it comes out in the order that the attributes are (which is pretty random).The values you posted are in order: 'attval1' < 'attval2' < ...
So I'm using this now(had to use "|" as separator because SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH would not work with comma due to some of the attval having comma in them ):The values you posted don't contain and commas.
You're hiding what the problem is. It would really help if you posted actual data. It always helps if you post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for a little sample data, and the results you want from that data.
Assuming you really have something that has to be in a certain order, and that order is not based on anything in the values themselves, then DECODE might be a good way to do it. Storing the sort value in a table might be even better.
It looks like you were using an Oracle 9 exanple. In Oracle 10, using SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH is simpler:
SELECT     id
,     LTRIM ( SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH (attval, '|')
           , '|'
           )          AS attvals
FROM     (
          SELECT     id
          ,     attval
          ,     ROW_NUMBER () OVER ( PARTITION BY id

Problem with passing parameters from HTML

Im unsure as to where to turn next with this problem. What is making it all the more infuriating is that I have had this code working previously and now cant for the life of me figure out how I did it.
What Im trying to do is I have a HTML page with two buttons on, one called "Submit Application" and the other "Submit Resource" and when I click on one I want a JSP page to be called and a certain piece of SQL to be executed, likewise when I click on the other "Submit Application" button I want a separate bit of SQL to be executed. (I know in this example both bits of SQL are identical but that is just while I get the functionality correct).
Whats happening is that the first bit of SQL will execute if I click the "Submit Resource" button, however when I click the "Submit Application"
button I get a "Error 500:" displayed. Im at the end of my tether as to what to do next and as I say it makes it all the more infuriating in that I had it working before. So any help would be greatly appriciated.
The code is as follows, I have highlighted the two IF statements :-

You make your comparisons like this:
if (!Subapp.equals (null))
Well, what happens if Subapp IS equal to null. The .equals method call will be called from a NULL and you will get a NullPointerException.
When testing for null you do:
if (Subapp == null) (or if (Subapp != null)
This is okay when dealing objects even with the mantra of 'don't use == to compare objects, because what you are really testing is if the reference points anywhere, and == will compare the reference.
Also, next time you post, make sure to use the [code] tags as described in the [Formatting Help] link. It will make it easier to read.
Also, you should try to remove the SQL from the JSP. Move it into a Servlet which builds a List that forwards to another JSP for display, or use a bean. Using java classes like Servlets and JavaBeans makes it easier to debug, and makes your JSP code easier to manage.

Help with code to print HTML in Java 5

Hi,
The following code works and runs successfully..
However, the printing in Java 1.4.2_03 is better than Java 5 (latest version).
i.e in particular the characters are not monospaced compared with compiling with Java 1.4.2_03. e.g si so ss squashed together.
This issue does not seem to occur when running the same code in Java 1.4.2_03. (I haven't tried other 1.4.2 java versions).
Any help would be appreciated. We really need this working under Java 5 or bust.

    DocumentRenderer computes line breaks, paginates, and performs other

    An HTMLDocument is printed by sending it as an argument to the
    print(HTMLDocument) method. A PlainDocument is printed the same way. Other

    detailed above, a programmer may gain access to the formatting capabilities
    of this class without using its print dialog by creating an instance of
    DocumentRenderer and setting the document to be printed with the
    setDocument() or setJEditorPane(). The Document may then be printed by
    setting the instance of DocumentRenderer in any PrinterJob.

/* The print method implements the Printable interface. Although Printables
    may be called to render a page more than once, each page is painted in
    order. We may, therefore, keep track of changes in the page being rendered
    by setting the currentPage variable to equal the pageIndex, and then
    comparing these variables on subsequent calls to this method. When the two
    variables match, it means that the page is being rendered for the second or
    third time. When the currentPage differs from the pageIndex, a new page is
    being requested.
    The highlights of the process used print a page are as follows:
    I.    The Graphics object is cast to a Graphics2D object to allow for
          scaling.
    II.   The JEditorPane is laid out using the width of a printable page.
          This will handle line breaks. If the JEditorPane cannot be sized at
          the width of the graphics clip, scaling will be allowed.
    III. The root view of the JEditorPane is obtained. By examining this root
          view and all of its children, printView will be able to determine
          the location of each printable element of the document.
    IV.   If the scaleWidthToFit option is chosen, a scaling ratio is
          determined, and the graphics2D object is scaled.
    V.    The Graphics2D object is clipped to the size of the printable page.
    VI.   currentPage is checked to see if this is a new page to render. If so,
          pageStartY and pageEndY are reset.
    VII. To match the coordinates of the printable clip of graphics2D and the
          allocation rectangle which will be used to lay out the views,
          graphics2D is translated to begin at the printable X and Y
          coordinates of the graphics clip.
    VIII. An allocation Rectangle is created to represent the layout of the
          Views.
          The Printable Interface always prints the area indexed by reference
          to the Graphics object. For instance, with a standard 8.5 x 11 inch
          page with 1 inch margins the rectangle X = 72, Y = 72, Width = 468,
          and Height = 648, the area 72, 72, 468, 648 will be painted regardless
          of which page is actually being printed.
          To align the allocation Rectangle with the graphics2D object two
          things are done. The first step is to translate the X and Y
          coordinates of the graphics2D object to begin at the X and Y
          coordinates of the printable clip, see step VII. Next, when printing
          other than the first page, the allocation rectangle must start laying
          out in coordinates represented by negative numbers. After page one,
          the beginning of the allocation is started at minus the page end of
          the prior page. This moves the part which has already been rendered to
          before the printable clip of the graphics2D object.
    X.    The printView method is called to paint the page. Its return value
          will indicate if a page has been rendered.
    Although public, print should not ordinarily be called by programs other
    than PrinterJob.

I have finally cracked it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The issue is definitely with Java Sun. "Uneven character spacing when printing JTextComponent"
It is raised on the http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6488219
And currently in OPEN state, and raised on 31 Oct 2006 and mentions it was caused by fix 4352983.
So where do we go from here. It's not good because I have tried all later version of the JVM and the issue is still there.
Why? Because it hasn't been fixed yet. Read the bug report above, as it gives more insight -- and mentions the workaround is NOT good for existing code.
So the way forward is to use an earlier version of the JVM 5.
I download the JVM version 1.5.0 (starting version) and works Ok... I would probably think version prior to 4352983 would be Ok too.
Please vote for this.... We have a workaround (use older version of the JVM).
So I am very happy.

Help with email content type HTML

Hi,
Following is my control file code for sending the email message (just putting the delivery part, and not the while content from control file):
<xapi:delivery>
<xapi:email server="${DCRD_SMTP_HOST}" port="${DCRD_SMTP_PORT}"
from="${CP_DCRD_ADMIN_EMAIL}"
reply-to="${CP_DCRD_ADMIN_EMAIL}">

<xapi:message id="123" to="${CF_DCRD_CONTACT_EMAIL}" cc="${CP_DCRD_ADMIN_EMAIL}" bcc="[email protected], [email protected]" attachment="true" content-type="html"
subject="Datacard Maintenance Agreement Number ${CONTRACT_NUMBER} ">${CF_FINAL_EMAIL_CONTENT}
</xapi:message>
</xapi:email>
</xapi:delivery>
The formula column CF_FINAL_EMAIL_CONTENT get populated with some html content based on condition. Now, when I get the email, the text from the formula column get printed as is.......with tags and all. It's like I had unformatted plain text email. I need the content to be formatted and I need different content based on a condition. Has anyone done this before?
Appreciate any help on this.
Thanks,
Alka

I finally could fix the issue by still using a formula column to store the html text and using the following in my control file (in bold):
<xapi:message id="123" to="${CF_DCRD_CONTACT_EMAIL}" cc="${CP_DCRD_ADMIN_EMAIL}" bcc="[email protected], [email protected]" attachment="true" content-type="text/html"
subject="Datacard Maintenance Agreement Number ${CONTRACT_NUMBER} "> *<content><![CDATA[${CF_FINAL_EMAIL_CONTENT}]]></content>*
</xapi:message>
Hope this would help someone clueless like me :-)

Help with passing parameters to Aspell from C [SOLVED ENOUGH]

I found this really cool utility called aspellstdout that will allow for rudimentary spell check in Scite:
http://www.distasis.com/cpp/scitetip.htm#spell
What I can't figure out (and the author didn't either) is how to pass parameters beyond language to Aspell. What I want to be able to do is pass mode switches. For instance, if I have a LaTeX document I want to be able to pass the -t switch (--mode=tex). I looked through aspell.h and couldn't see what I'm looking for.
--EDIT--
The output to xterm option is far easier and it makes quite a bit more sense now that I'm use to it. From my .SciTEUser.properties:
# Rudimentary LaTeX Spell Checker
command.name.2.$(file.patterns.tex)=Spell Check
command.2.$(file.patterns.tex)=xterm -e aspell -t -c $(FileNameExt)
command.subsystem.2.$(file.patterns.tex)=0

Hi,
I see you're using System.Data.OracleClient (which has been deprecated by MS) rather than Oracle.DataAccess.Client, but this works for me with Oracle's ODP, maybe it will help.
Cheers,

Help with timing, input from Daq, output sound

Hi
I am a student member of OSA, working on a laser listener project to be used in examples for high schools students. It is a pretty old and simple experiment but something I think students would be into. {any suggestions for other experiments anyone might have I would love to hear}
I read a voltage from a Daq off a reciever circuit, that signal is noisey so I filter it for the human voice range, 60Hz - 2000Hz. Then that filtered signal goes to the play waveform express VI. It works but the snag is I keep getting a "beeping" in the output sound, I believe this is from the loop cycling. I have thought of something like a master/slave loops, storing the data in an array then waiting a sec or two and playing the sound from this data so I dont have to wait on the Daq to acquire new data. Any help or suggestions are greatly apprciated.
This is a rough version sorry about the mess. I think it should also be noted that if the "Time Duration" is larger that 0.02 then that makes the number of samples larger than what the Daq can handle.
Thank you very much in advance for all of the help and your time.

Hi Jason,
I took a look at what is happening in the play waveform express VI and the issue may be related to starting/stopping the sound card every time the loop iterates, similar to what I suggested with the DAQmx VIs in my previous post. To look into the code behind an express VI, you should copy the express VI to another section of your code or to another VI completely, because once you show the block diagram for it, you will not be able to use the express VI configuration dialog anymore for that instance of the VI. Once you copy the play waveform express VI, right click on the copy and select "Open Front Panel." Then, navigate to the block diagram and keep opening the subVIs until you find the "Simple Write" VI (see below for a screenshot of this VI). Here, you will see that there is a "Sound Output configure" VI as well as a "Sound Output Clear" VI. Since these are within the while loop of your top level VI, the "beeping" in your output may be caused by the constant configuring and stopping of the sound card with these VIs. What I suggest is that you use the code in the express VI as an example to code your own sound output vi that is configured once outside the while loop and stopped once after the while loop. Hope this helps!

Need help with formating numbers

Help with formatting fields in PDF...

Hi -
I´m working on a form that should be filled in from the internet...
The design I did i InDesign - and the formfields I did i Acrobat Pro -
and finally I´m finetuning everything in LiveCycle...
I've runned into two problems...
I need the date field to correct itself -
if the user choice to use the wrong format...
for example -
we want to have YYYY-MM-DD
and if the user writes DD MM YY -
it should be accepted and corrected....
is this possible - maybe with JAVA-script?
Also - In Sweden anyway we always write the Social Security number in this way
YYMMDD-NNNN ( N = Numbers between 0-9 )
How can I get the field to recognize and to crave - "demand" this format...
I´ll hope my Swinglish can be understandable?
IdéSpiran

I suggest that you make use of the Validation patterns for this. On the Object palette there is a Value tab and on that tab is a button for Validation Pattern. You can create a pattern in 4 areas - Display - what the user sees on teh screen, Edit - what the user enters in the field, Validation - what the value entered will be validated against and Data - what is stored in the data file. You will be interested in the Display pattern. Depending on the type of field you will see different data patterns ( i.e. Date fields show date patterns and TextFields have phone numbers, zip codes etc..). You can also create a custom pattern. Have a look in the docs about patterns and you will see what each of the chars represents and how to create one. For your SSN you will probably need javascript because of the combination of Date and number formats.
Hope that helps

SAPRFC - Help with Export parameters

Hi, I need to connect SAP through PHP and I'm using SAPRFC.
I have problems when the RFC used EXPORTS (works well with IMPORTS and TABLES). I tried in all ways that I found on the
Internet, but not accomplished fix it. In some cases, no receipt data, and in other only achievement print the first
character of each field.
Example:
$result=$sap->callFunction("BAPI_USER_GET_DETAIL",array(array("IMPORT","USERNAME",< USER >),array("EXPORT","LOGONDATA",array())));
if ($sap->getStatus() == SAPRFC_OK)
foreach ($result["LOGONDATA"] as $solicitud)
echo $solicitud["LOGONDATA"];
In this case, I get only the first character of each of the fields of LOGONDATA. I hope that you can help me.
Thank you!

I made the suggested change:
exp / file=$file tables=shrlgpa query=" where shrlgpa_pidm in (Select sztahbr_pidm from purdue.sztahbr where sztahbr_to_extract=\'Y\' and sztahbr_export_status=\'N\')"
and got the following error:

Help with formatting for Cross Tab Report Crystal 2008

This is probably a simple question. I have a cross tab report that displays sales by month for a period of 6 months. These sales columns are formatted to be numbers with no decimals. In addition to these columns, I have inserted columns that display the percentage up/down in sales over the previous month. If I try to format the percentage columns, it changes every column to then display "##,##.##%" when I need to keep the sales columns at "##,###" with no decimal or percentage sign.
1. Is there a way to change the formatting of some of the columns but not all in a cross tab report?
2. If not, can I add a function that would change these in the calculation formula of the calculated member?
I tried to add "%" but it wants it to return a number.
Here is the current code:
//The calculation formula is used in place of the summaries in Calculated Members.
// This calculation formula must return a/an Number value.
If GridValueAt (CurrentRowIndex,CurrentColumnIndex-3,CurrentSummaryIndex) = 0 then 0 else
((GridValueAt (CurrentRowIndex,CurrentColumnIndex-1,CurrentSummaryIndex) -
GridValueAt (CurrentRowIndex,CurrentColumnIndex-3,CurrentSummaryIndex)) /
GridValueAt (CurrentRowIndex,CurrentColumnIndex-3,CurrentSummaryIndex)) * 100
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you,
Tobi

Carl,
Thank you for your help. I did try your method but still couldn't get it to ignore the fact that it wanted a number. I changed my approach a litte and managed to solve the problem. Here is the method that I chose which managed to solve the problem. If this is a poor way to solve it, please let me know as I am always open for new ways.
Format Field > Number Tab > Customize > Currency Symbol Tab
Checked Enable Currency Symbol Fixed, changed currency symbol to %. This is the same thing that I did before which changes it for all columns.
Beside Enable Currency checkbox, I added this formula:
// This conditional formatting formula must return one of the following Currency Symbol Constants:
// crNoCurrencySymbol
// crFixedCurrencySymbol
// crFloatingCurrencySymbol
If GridRowColumnValue("InvoiceLine.TxnDate") = Date(0,0,0) then
crFixedCurrencySymbol
else
crNoCurrencySymbol
My added columns have a null date field so they take the currency format. My other columns do not so they do not take the formatting.
Thanks again for the help.
Tobi
