How can I show a textarea in a popup window

Hi,
Thankyou for reading this post, but can I state from the outset that I don't want to show a whole page in a popup window - I have read lots
of posts and googled-pages on that topic so please don't drive down that route.
I have a table with a few columns in it. One of those columns is a varchar2(4000), and in there is a nicely formatted block of text.
I want to create a report in an Apex page on the aforementioned table, but have it so that this block of text does not appear in the report but does appear in a modal popup area. So the popup will appear,
and will have the text block in it, and will have some sort of "close" button too.
The popup to be modal.
It doesn't sound like a tricky thing to do, but various searches around the area seem to dredge up different variations that don't seem to be
malleable enough for me to re-shape them into what I want.
Any help gratefully received; thanks in advance.

Hi Jari,
Ta for the help.
Anything negative I say might be misconstrued as being ungrateful, but I have sincere thanks for your efforts.
The boxes on the web page at http://dbswh.webhop.net/dbswh/f?p=BLOG:READ:0::::ARTICLE:1631800346026542 have a limited width. This happens often on my screen - I have a wide screen monitor with two black vertical
bands either side of useful space that never seems to be occupied with useful stuff. These bands are approximately three inches wide - please would all developer readers spare a thought for those with wide screens that want
to use the blooming things!
Because of the "horizontally-squashed" nature of the page, it's not that obvious that some boxes have additional text not shown to the far right. I can easily click, do control-A and then control-C. I wonder whether every other
reader would be aware of this.
It's a small point, but you don't really want to be snowed under with ten zillion replies of "I canny get this to work", only to have to get back with "there is more text hidden off to the far right of the box".
Also, your instructions are "do this, do that" without a wee word of explanation. Again, I'm skating on thin ice here: I do appreciate your efforts and you've helped me on a few ocassions in the past, but others might like to be
let in on the secret of what each steps involves.
Part of your instructions involves changing one column in the report, and then you say "Add Link Column to report and set Link Text".
What does this mean:
1) Add a NEW column to the report
2) Keep editing the CURRENT column since there's no "save the changes" instruction
There's two mentions of setting "Standard Report Column", so does this imply there are two distinct columns?
You say 'Create dynamic Action "Set Dialogs". Select Advanced' - I create a dynamic action, have to make a choice between Standard and Advanced and
then am presented with the dialog asking for the name of this new dynamic action. How about rephrasing as 'Create a new Dynamic Action; select "Advanced", enter the name as "Set Dialogs" '.
The sequence is important; if I have to re-read, re-parse and re-order a sentence then it becomes frustrating for us already struggling with the technology.
The menu choice of "None" to "Selection Choice" is not visible to me.
I followed your instructions but nothing seems to happen - I guess my choice of the "Add Link Column" was the wrong one, hence I will go back
and play with that.
Although you may not believe me, sincere thanks for your efforts. My comments above are meant to reduce the volume of follow-up feedback that you may experience from your work.
Ta again Jari

How can I view form details in a popup window?

Recently, something called Babylon assist took control of Firefox and I was forced to reset Firefox to get rid of this. As a consequence, I lost the ability to right click on a page and select from a list that allowed me to view form details in a pop-up window. I used this feature frequently in developing database driven applications that have lots of forms. Can anyone please tell me how to restore this lovely feature? I found something that opens a new tab with the form information in a large format that is rather ugly - I really want to get back to the nice little pop-up that displayed the basic form information.

THANK YOU - your clues led me to the correct add-on. It's called 'Links and Forms' and says that it adds back the links and forms tabs that were in the Page Info window of Firefox 2. I have found it to be very handy in debugging forms that I've created.

How can we show data in rows when it is in Columns........

I have strucked with a simple but a complex problem.
I have a Report with data in vertical rows..need of the hour is how can we show that data into column structure.
here is the table sample which i have in Database..
Location      chrg_type    Effective_date
xxxxxxx        xxxx          xx-xx
thhis is the structure in effective date we have several months in it in a single column i want show the effective date or effective month in various columns instead of a single column.

                            Effective_date     Effective_date
Location      chrg_type     xx-xx              xx-xx
xxxxxxx        xxxx          xx-xx
any tough heads?????

Hi Sunil,
Your 1st problem is that you are going to need one more field to accomplish you goal. What type of data do want under your new date columns?
Anyway, once you have that you need to move on to how to move the data out into columns based on date.
Try something like this.
0_Date = IF DATEPART('m',{tbl.Effective_date}) = DATEPART('m',CurrentDate) AND
DATEPART('yyyy',{tbl.Effective_date}) = DATEPART('yyyy',CurrentDate)
THEN {tbl.DataField}
1_Date = IF DATEPART('m',{tbl.Effective_date}) = DATEPART('m',DATEADD('m', -1, CurrentDate)) AND
DATEPART('yyyy',{tbl.Effective_date}) = DATEPART('yyyy',DATEADD('m', -1, CurrentDate))
THEN {tbl.DataField}
2_Date = IF DATEPART('m',{tbl.Effective_date}) = DATEPART('m',DATEADD('m', -2, CurrentDate)) AND
DATEPART('yyyy',{tbl.Effective_date}) = DATEPART('yyyy',DATEADD('m', -2, CurrentDate))
THEN {tbl.DataField}
... Repeat this process until you have all of the columns you need, following this format.
Hope this works for you,
Jason

Forms 6.0-- How can I show records in a block in different colours.

In a multi record block, how can I show few records in one colour and few more in a different colour depending on a condition.

Use DISPLAY_ITEM.
This will change the visual attribute of the item in the current(!) record,
set_item_property changes the attributes of the item in all(!) records.

HINT:- We have to use fiels symbols....AND THE USER CAN ENTER ANY DDIC TABLE NAME having some records ...........

You can display the contents of the DB table inputted using ALV.
Pass the Structure name as the DB table name inputted.
Use CL_ALV_TABLE_CREATE=>CREATE_DYNAMIC_TABLE to create the dynamic table of the same structure as the DB table passed.
Once the above steps are done, the internal table with data can be displayed using ALV.
Reward points for all helpful answers.

How can I show album art in the mini player when playing songs from a plugged in iPhone?

How can I show album art in the mini player when playing songs from a plugged in iPhone?
When I play from my phone and switch to the mini player it's always showing the music notes in the thumbnaill. It'd be nice if it could get album art off of the phone.
I'm on iTunes version 11.0.4.4

He @mracole,
it is very nice that you post a solution to complete the library with artwork for album's that do not have an artwork. Your solution perfectly addresses the problem for assigning artwork, BUT this thread is about CHANGING artwork for albums already uploaded into iTunes Match. Just try to replace for example a blue artwork cover for an album with a red one. If you made it in a simple way (without deleting the album from iTunes Match and local changes on the files with an external ID3-Application or 2 or more iTunes libraries on different Mac's) this is the right place to give a solution. I really tried for hours to change the artwork to make them visible in landscape cover flow mode on my iPhone5. In rare cases I made it, but then the covers sometimes where restored to the old onces - exacly how it is mentioned by Starhawk
As long as there is no simple way to change the cover of an iTunes Match stored album (you can change title, artist and so on without hitting "update iTunes Match" over all distributed Library on different devices - this date will be synchronized almost instantly) I considered the behaviour from iTunes as BUGGY! For me the local artwork cache (and if there is any iCloud artwork cache - I don't know) do not interfere with iCloud. Even when I delete the whole local cache (album artwork music - everything) I do not manage to change the artwork.

How can I show a 0% range in the data value label on a bar chart thanks?

How can I show a 0% range in the data value label on a bar chart thanks?

I'm not sure what the question is.
I know that if you have a bar chart and one of the categories (X-axis) has bar (Y value) equal to 0%, no bar is plotted for that category. Even the addition of a stroke (line) around the bars doesn't make one appear for 0%. The only automatic way I know of to make it look like there is data in that category is to add the value labels to the bars. Inspector/Chart/Series, select one of the bars on the chart, click on "value labels". Another method that is a workaround is to fudge the number a little in your table so that instead of 0% it is a very small %. This will get you a thin line on the chart.
But if your question is about the value labels (the numbers that display on or in the bars) and you are not getting one for a bar that is supposed to be 0%, it probably means your table doesn't actually have a 0% in the corresponding cell. A blank cell in the table will not get a value label.

How can I show all missing content in iTunes library?

How can I show all missing content (ie. show the exclamation mark against each track)? I can restore the missing content but need to know what is missing without running each track.

One way to identify the broken links in your library is to create this set of playlists:
Lost & Found playlists
Create a playlist called Found, select everything in Music and drag it into the Found playlist. Create a smart playlist called Lost matching All the rules Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Found. Your lost tracks will be in this playlist.
Or use iTunes Folder Watch and enable its option to check for dead tracks on startup.

Hi All,
Customer orders 100 boxes and pays to all material.But customers are shipped the required material as and when required.My client requirement is these 100 boxes should show as non valuated stock.

Ex:Customer X ordered 100 boxes and he paid to all quantity.
The customer X does not have space at his premises to keep the stock of 100 boxes.He just requests 20 boxes every monday or required quantity.Then company ships the required quantity to customer X.
Now the requirement is that these 100 boxes should be shown as non valuated stock in the system.This should not used for other customers, should not work ATP functionality for these material quantity.This should show as reserved to this customer X

How can I show text sentence on XY graph

Hello,,,, anyone knows??? How can I show text sentence on XY graph?
I just know that the only numeric data type can be the input data but my case I have both the number and message to show on the same graph.
Thanks in advance

You start out with an array of zero size. Since replace array subset does not change the size of an array, you stay with zero annotations. If nothing is there, you cannot replace it.
Possible solutions:
(A) Instead of reading the current annotation list (which is zero!), you could initialize the shift register with a diagram constant (right-click...create constant), expand it to the desired number of elements and make them all e.g. with a blank text.
(B) Alternatively, you can manually create the desired number of annotation by right-clicking on the graph and select "data operations...create annotations". Now you start of with an array of the correct size if you read the annotation list with a property node and you can replace them programmatically with new annotations as desired.
(C) You can also initialize the shift register with an empty array, then use built array to add annotations.
