How do I get a value from a portal form for a non database field ? HELP!!

I have a form based off of a table that I added a field to. The form is to allow the user to change abbreviation for a
department field ie. BIO to BIOL. for a biology department. I have a pl/sql procedure for validation using the custom option
on the update button to verify the user and update the data. I have tested to code at the sql prompt and it works.
They only difference between the prompt and the form is the non-database field new_dept_abbr was added to the
form. I don't know how to capture the value of the user input into a variable that can be used in the pl/sql.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have tried this approach
v_new_dept_abbr := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2(
p_block_name => 'default',
p_attribute_name => 'new_dept_abbr'
have tried using p_attribute_name as 'a_new_dept_abbr' but this does work and does not exist in the body of the form.
Have also tried setting the p_block_name to _session - still doesn't work.
Any ideas??
Thanks

Thanks for the info. I tried that and it still doesn't pull the value. I have opened a TAR via metalink, but I'm not getting any
satisfactory answers. I ran across an note - 137172.1 that has this snippet of information in it.
Unfortunately, at this time (portal 3.0.7.6.2) , a non-table item cannot be
referenced in a plsql event handler, only in client side JavaScript code. This
is a known limitation and will be fixed in a future release.
I don't know how to get the value from the client side JavaScript code to a pl/sql variable. Do you?
I've been trying to get them to tell me if the 'known issue' has been addressed in 3.0.9.
I'll keep at it. Thanks so much for your suggestion I appreciate it.

  • How can i get the value from a HTML Form

    hi,
    I am using HTML form (logfrm). there are userId field,password field, submit button,reset button, and a link.
    when i click on the link, it should fetch the value of userid.
    How it is possible?
    AE

    use jsp:
    which lets you embed java statments in your html -so you when you click on the link you can use request.getParameter("userID") to get the userid.
    Ideally with html forms use a combination of jsp and java beans, where the fields in the form are also fields in your java bean, which you can access through setters and getters.
    google for some jsp tutorials.

    i have one input table and two output tables (name it as output1, output2). Selected rows from input table are displayed in output1 table. The data in output1 table is temporary(means the dat wont store in database just for display purpose).
    Actually what i want is how can i get all values from output1 table to output2 table with out selecting the data in output1 table?

    You could set the table's data model to be the same:

    Just think of dynpros as windows into the global memory of your program... so if you want the value of a field on dynpro 1234 to appear on dynpro 2345, then just pop the value into a global variable (i.e. one defined in your top include), and you will be able to see it in your second dynpro (assuming you make the field formats etc the same on both screens!).

  • How can I get command values from a VI executed by reference ? NEWBIE

    Hi,
    I'm running a sub-vi in a "Secondary Front Face" (excuse for the
    translation if not correct, I'm working on a French version). In order
    to run this VI, I pass a reference. All is working fine but I don't
    know how can I get the values entered by the user in this VI ?
    Actually I run a main VI wich contains a "Secondary Front Face" (this
    SFF is contained in a tabbed pane). In my diagramm, I pass a reference
    to another VI (by the name of the file *.vi). If my user enter a word
    in a text field, I would like to be able to get it in my main app.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello,
    You might take a look at the following tutorial for more information about calling a VI by reference. It's got some great visuals and examples.
    Tutorial: Calling a VI by Reference
    You might also consider just calling the secondary VI as a simple subVI, if you can spare the memory space when loading the main application, as this is the easiest way to input and output VI values.
    I hope this helps! Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

    Hi,
    In your backing bean you will need to add a new variable to bind your control to, I think this variable needs to be of teh "HtmlSelectManyCheckbox" type. The on your jsp page you can add binding="#{myBean.myVariable}".
    When you want to get the values of the selectMany in your backing bean, you can call the getSelectedValues() function on your HtmlSelectManyCheckbox variable.
    in backing bean:
    private HtmlSelectManyCheckbox hsmc;
    public HtmlSelectManyCheckbox getHsmc(){
        return hsmc;
    public void setHsmc(HtmlSelectManyCheckbox hsmc){
        this.hsmc = hsmc;
    public void someFunction(){
       Object[] obs = hsmc.getSelectedValues();
    }On jsp page:
    <h:selectManyCheckbox
                           id="cartas"
                       layout="pageDirection"
                        value="#{store.cartas}"
                         binding="#(myBean.hsmc}">
          <f:selectItems
                        value="#{cartas}"/>
        </h:selectManyCheckbox>

    Edited by: durga on Aug 17, 2009 1:59 AM

    That was not what I was looking for. Because it would give null as value in my scenario. But I have solved that problem by passing the value of element in href. as window.open('www.sun.com?text='+document.getElementByID('req').value,'Blank',standards);

  • Get parameter value from PLSQL portal Item

    Hi,
    i have some page link like :
    http://server:7777/portal/page?...&myparameter=test
    I don't know how to get myparameter. I want to access this parameter value in a PlSql portal Item in this page
    can somenone help me ?
    is there an API to get those parameters?
    thanks in advance
    Joao

    If do you want to get a parameter value from an item, you'll need to construct a procedure that receive your parameter value and configure your item to call this procedure.
    But If you want to get a parameter from a portal page, first you need to configure the parameter in page properties, construct a portlet and configure "function describe_parameters" to get the parameter and work your parameter in "procedure show".

  • How do I get the values from a selected row.

    I am using JDeveloper 9.0.5. On my page, I have placed a button within a table. The button has been assigned an event. The event is within my Action class. This class implements DataAction and has overriden the
    processComponentEvents(DataActionContext actionContext);
    method.
    Question: While I am within the processComponentEvents method, is it possible to obtain the values of selected row?

    Good Morning Jeffery,
    First off thanks for your clear explanation. I have a few related questions as noted from your response:
    There are two ways to communicate the desired model row between the UIX view and the struts controller. One way is to use the singleSelection component in your table and put your buttons in the singleSelection's contents.
    When the user selects the radio button for a particular row and then clicks on one the buttons, a built in event handler in UIX will set the current row in the model to be the user selected row. Therefore, your Struts action can operate on the currently selected model row.
    When you drop a UIX table from the data control palette it is automatically set up in this way (with a single selection).
    Ok, Lets say that i've set everything up as you described. Not lets say that the button was pressed and I hit the overriddenprotected void processComponentEvents(DataActionContext actionContext) throws IOException, ServletException ;
    When I look at the request object, I do not see the values. How do I get access to the rowkey at this point?
    Some people, however, want to actually render buttons in their table rows, and have those buttons initiate an action on their row. If you are doing this, then you need to pass the row id to your struts action as a parameter, which means that you need to know the row id when you are rendering a button for a given row. There is an EL expression that will return the row-id for the current row, it is:
    ${uix.current.rowKeyStr}
    which is not so obvious or well documented in the preview release (sorry) but should be for the production release.
    A generic code snippet would go a long way to shedding some light on that. I guess I am use to using JDeveloper 9.0.3. It seems,"to me", that JDev 9.0.5 has put a completely new twist on things. I find myself wondering when I can use the 9.0.3 syntax and when
    should not. If your team has any short source toys around which demonstrated using rowkeys, or accessing the internal parts of the
    struts controller, I would find that invaluable. It dose not matter if this information is documented.
    Thank you
