How to remove values from a drop down menu with personalizations

I have been unable to find any examples of removing values from a dropdown menu using forms personalizations. We have a specific responsibility that we would like to limit the actions that they can carry out on the person form. I have tried setting default values, setting the object to update_allowed = false, and have been unable to come up with a solution. The examples I have found do not show this type of personalization so I am unsure if it can be done. If anyone has done a personalization like this, please post the steps to reproduce or a link to an example. Thanks.

Which dropdown menu you want to customized ?The specific menu we would like to customize is the 'Action' menu on the Person form that usually contains 'Create Employment' and so on. We have a specific recruiter responsibility that we would like to limit to 'Create Applicant'. I have been unable to come up with a combination of steps in personalizations that sets that value in the dropdown and allows it then be unchangeable. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. I would prefer not to create a custom form but without personalizations, I might have to.

In Mail go to the Window Menu and select Previous Recipients. Deleting entries from there won't delete them from your Address Book.

Filter query based on a value from a drop down menu

I am using ADFBC/JDev 10.1.3/ADF-faces (JSPX)
I would like to display a table of data based on a view object and have a drop down menu of values that the user can select from which would filter the table of data. The filter would be applied to a field in the VO. For example, have a JSPX page that shows all employees and have a drop down menu that filters the employees by a specific department with an option to show all departments too in the drop down. I'm not sure if Steve Muench's example #76 (http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/stories/2004/09/23/notYetDocumentedAdfSampleApplications.html) would serve as a basis for this requirement or not.
Can anybody give me high level guidance on how to do this? Both declaratively and programmatically would be great.
Thanks,
Quoc

I can't get the JSPX page to display the correct data. It's displaying the entire VO and when you try to select Yes or No or All from the drop down menu, it just changes the Active Flag column in the table to whatever you select for the first row only and still displays the rest of the rows in the VO.
Here's my JSPX code:

How do I alphabatize all my bookmarks from the drop down menu with the star on the Right side of screen?

I want to alphabatize all my bookmarks that are in the drop down menu, the menu with the star icon, on the right side of the screen. I do not want to put them in folders or view them in the box from the menu bar and all the answers pertain to that box, and not to the one with the star. Thank you

I don't think it's possible from the toolbar button.
However, the action you take in the Bookmarks Sidebar or in the Library dialog will affect the Bookmarks Menu everywhere it is displayed, including the toolbar button, so you only need to use it for the few moments needed to use Sort By Name and then close it.
Bookmarks Sidebar (either):
* View menu > Sidebar > Bookmarks
* Command+b
Library dialog (either):
* Bookmarks menu > Show All Bookmarks
* Command+Shift+b
right-click "Bookmarks Menu" > Sort By Name

Get/Set values from a drop down list

I am trying to modify the http://www.netbeans.org/kb/60/web/web-jpa-part2.html so that instead of entering the data from a text field (in update & add) the values come from a drop down list from a table. I have drop down lists that are populated bothe from the DB and hard coding. When I run, I am able to see the options on the DDs. But none of the CRUD work. I think this is because my set and get for the drop down is wrong. Then again, I also have a few text fields from the original example which also don't seem to work. Here is a piece of my addButton():
        RowKey[] selectedRowKeys = getTableRowGroup1().getSelectedRowKeys();
        PaymentDetails[] pv = getSessionBean1().getPaymentVoucher();
        int rowId = Integer.parseInt(selectedRowKeys[0].getRowId());
        PaymentDetails upPV = pv[rowId];
        bankCodeDD.getSelected();
        statusDD.getSelected(); // hard coded value
      upPV.setPrepBy((String) prepByField.getText());
      PaymentDetailsController pvController = new PaymentDetailsController();
        pvController.addPaymentDetails(upPV);
        addRequest = false;
        return null;How do I set and get the values from the drop down so than it passed to my bean? When I choose a row to be updated, make changes and click Update, I get this message on my Tomcat:
com.sun.webui.jsf.component.DropDown::The current value of component form1:deptCodeDD does not match any of the selections.
Did you forget to reset the value after changing the options?Can someone please point me to a place which shows how I can add a default value from my DD? I tried to follow http://www.netbeans.org/kb/55/dropdowncomp.html, but unable to complete because I get an error for Options api. The auto-fix imported import org.apache.jasper.Options; But the package given in the tutorial is com.sun.webui.jsf.model.Option. My Java version is 1.6.0_07.
private Options listOptions[];
...//getter setter goes here
listOptions = new Option[noofDBRows + 1];Many Thanks!

I don't guess what I may add.
The contents of the table named lookup appear on the screenshot.
cell A1 contains the string One-Piece, cell B1 contains the 'associated' value 160.
cell A2 contains the string Two-Piece, cell B2 contains the 'associated' value 130.
cell A3 contains the string Three-Quarter, cell B3 contains the 'associated' value 150.
Now table Main
In column B the cells contain a pop_up menu with four items like the ones described by Jerrold.
In column C of the cells contain the formula :
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(B,Tableau 2 :: A:B,2,FALSE),"")
I enhanced it since yesterdays because I forgot to treat the case when cell is blank in column B.
I apologize but as I'm using my machine in French, the screenshot display the French formulas.
I repeat that you may find useful infos in the PDFs files which we may download from the menus:
Help > Numbers User Guide
Help > iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide
As you are in Stoke-on-Trent maybe your system is set to use the comma as decimal separator.
If it's that, you must replace the comma by semi-colons in the formulas (you may see them in my screenshot).

Hello,
Where do you want to insert it in Muse. Do you want to add this in Muse Form widget then you can use the widget mentioned in the link below.
Forms+ Bundle Widget – Widgets.Mu
If you want to insert it anywhere else in Muse and if you have the HTML codes for that then you can insert its codes in page from Object > Insert HTML.
You may also require to use some java scripts to make them working as expected.

How do I get the complete drop down Menu?

How do I get the complete drop down menu when I CTRL-Mouse click a folder. I am getting MORE in the bottom, and I need it to be removed.
Thanks

The "More" area in the contextual menu's are bothering quite a few people. It's a feature of Leopard and can't be removed. There may be a hack available, but I'm waiting for some help from Apple...
It reminds me of the Personalized menu's that Microsoft enables by default in some versions of MS Office for Windows. And it's a feature that I turn off immediately after installing Office for a client.

Reading from HTML Drop-Down Menu into JSP

Hi folks. I'm am just delving into JSP, and I have a very basic question. I've been looking around the internet for a good tutorial on how to read HTML form input data into my JSP page. I really haven't found anything, and was hoping that you could provide me with some good resources. I want to have just a basic HTML drop-down menu with a SQL query executed based on the menu selection. The selection from the drop-down menu should go into the SQL query where "Shawnee" currently is. Here is my JSP code:
<%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=windows-1252" import="java.sql.*"%>
<%
try
     Class.forName("net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver");
     Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://khrcs4:1433/Mail_List;user=xxxx;password=xxxx");
     System.out.println("success");
     Statement st = con.createStatement();
     ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery("select * from contacts where class like '%First Time Home Buyer Lenders%' and served like '%Shawnee%' order by company");
     while(rs.next())
          out.println(rs.getString(3)+"<br>"); //company
          out.println(rs.getString(12)+"<br>"); //address
          //out.println(rs.getString(13)+"<br>"); //address2
          out.println(rs.getString(8)+", "+rs.getString(9)+" "+rs.getString(14)+"<br>"); //city, state zip
          out.println(rs.getString(7)+"<br><br>"); //phone
catch (Exception ex)
     ex.printStackTrace();
%>

ArrayList recList = new ArrayList();
while(rs.next())
     recList.add(rs.getString(3));
put the recList in the session.
session.setAttribute("allrecords",recList);
Then in your jsp, get the recList from the session and loop it,
ArrayList recList = (ArrayList)session.getAttribute("allrecords");
for (var i=0; i < recList.size();++i){
     addOption(document.getElementById("drop-down box name"), valarray, valarray[i]);
function addOption(selectbox,text,value)
     var optn = document.createElement("OPTION");
     optn.text = trim(text);
     optn.value = trim(value);
     selectbox.options.add(optn);

Selecting the XML data from a drop-down menu or links

Hi, I have this page:
http://www.georgeglazer.com/prints/nathist/botanical/volckinv/volckinv.html
There are prints of lemons/limes and prints of oranges. I
want to have the visitor select which kind of fruit from either a
drop-menu or from two links that look something like this:
Lemons/Limes | Oranges. Looking at other help docs I found the
region/state mapping demo at
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/data_region/StateMappingSample.html,
and copied the code and tried to modify it. But I don't really
understand the technical shorthand of the help docs (an ongoing
problem I have with the Spry documentation) and I couldn't find the
XML docs that the region/state mapping demos are based on so I
couldn't see how they were set up.
I got as far as this: nothing loads initially when you open
the page (I'd like the lemons to load), but if you select Oranges
from the drop-down menu you see the oranges, and THEN once you've
done that, you can select Lemons/Limes in the drop-down menu and
see those. I have three XML files I've been playing around with to
get this to work: lemons.xml, oranges.xml and inventory.xml, which
combines the two.
I also suspect region/state mapping might not even be exactly
what I'm trying to do here, but I can't figure out from the
documentation exactly what this thing I'm trying to do is called. I
know the photo album demo accomplishes something similar, and I
could do that, but it seems way more complicated than what I need
here (right?). Help will be appreciated!
Thanks,
Helen

I made a different test using the file
http://www.georgeglazer.com/prints/nathist/botanical/volckinv/inventory.xml
and
http://www.georgeglazer.com/prints/nathist/botanical/volckinv/volcktest.html
where I sent up the inventory xml form like one I found in the
Nested XML Data documentation where you have item ids and types, so
all the oranges and lemons are in one XML document (which I'd
prefer).
Here's an abbreviated version of the inventory.xml:
<inv_items>
<inv_item id="1" type="lemon">
<name>Lemons and Limes</name>
<title>Cedro Ordinario</title>
<plate>116a</plate>
<fullimage>pl116a.jpg</fullimage>
<tn>pl116a-2.jpg</tn>
</inv_item>
[and more lemons follow]
<inv_item id="19" type="orange">
<name>Oranges and Others</name>
<title>La Zucchetta Imperiale</title>
<plate>138a</plate>
<fullimage>pl138a.jpg</fullimage>
<tn>pl138a-2.jpg</tn>
</inv_item>
[and more oranges follow]
</inv_items>
What I'd like to do is display the names "Lemons and Limes"
and "Oranges and Others" and when you click on "Lemons and Limes"
you see only the thumbnails for lemons and limes, and when you
click on "Oranges and Others" you see the thumbnails for only
those. I'd like the Lemons and Limes to be selected when the page
is opened.
Help greatly appreciated!

2 GB of RAM is pretty tight. I imagine that's at the very low end of what Yosemite wants, which could slow things down.
As far as scroll direction, you can always change it in the trackpad settings. Unsure why it got flipped, but you can fix it in about 5 seconds. Choose "natural" (or don't) depending on how you like it.

Show/hide fields when selecting an option from a drop-down menu.

Hello Gurus!
I have a question about creating a Java Script withing Acrobat pro. This is what i would like to do: I created a drop-down menu with several selection entries. Upon the customer making one of the selection entries, i would like for the correct fields that i created to become visible and all other fields to hide. Is this even possible to do? The reasoning behind this is because we have a form that customers have to generate in order to request access to certain financial accounts; we have over 20 different types of accounts and for each instance the customer has to fill out the same form. By creating a drop down menu, i can use the same form by just changing the drop-down selection and clicking on the designated fields for that selection. At this time i have over 20 different forms that poing to 20 different account requests and i would hate to send the form 20 different times to one person. The reason i can not add all fields desired for all accounts is due to the fact that the form would be filled with hundreds of checkmarks and instructions thus making the process too tideous for the customer. Hope you guys can help out.
~Vader

The good news is, it can be done (and it has been done).
There are a few things to be aware of, however.
The most important is that the form must be planned well, which means that you must think carefully about your logic and even more so about your field naming (hierarchical field names are your friend). One fundamental issue, you have to be aware of, is that this form no longer will be a "standard form". The consequence of this is that you may have to be aware that you might get into trouble when you have to prove that your user filled out that particular standard form (talk to your compliance and forms management people about that).
You also may have to decide whether the form should be usable in Reader. And, if so, how much you want to spend on the right to do so. You will see below why…
There are actually two approaches for dynamically showing/hiding parts of a form. If your form can be separated between a fixed first page (where you also have the account type selection), and a variable part (depending on the selection), you could use Templates, which you spawn according to the selection, and delete pages when you change the selection. This approach is very easy to implement, but requires Reader Extensions Server to allow it to work in Reader; Acrobat Pro's extended rights are not sufficient for that.
The other approach is showing/hiding fields. If you did your homework well, it would be very easy to first hide all subsequent fields, and then show the ones you need in two lines of code. This approach does not require extended rights for Reader at all, as long as your forms will always have the same number of pages, for each of your account types. This approach also works for the cases where the differences between the individual forms are very small. It does also work for showing/hiding bigger chunks of the form. In that case, you might create the "background" separately, and then put it as an icon into a button field which you will show/hide together with the carefully placed on top of it active fill-out fields.
There is a third possibility, which Adobe Propaganda probably would suggest, and that woudl be subforms in LiveCycle Designer. The consequence is, however, that you won't have PDF forms, but proprietary XFA forms instead. And you may have more developing and maintenance work than with the other approaches.
Back to your original question: you could use a Keystroke script evaluating event.changeEx of the combo box field. Depending on that, you would run your action to set up the according form part. The other way to do it would be evaluating event.value in the onBlur event. The latter would have the advantage that the selection has been made, and you get a bit more time to set up the form (this may in fact be an issue, particularly with Acrobat 9 and 10, which may take their time to show/hide fields).
Another possibility instead of a drop down (combo box field) would be a popup, where you would have a button to press, and the list of selections pops up. This second method uses app.popUpMenuEx().
Hope this can help.

Execute option missing from JSP drop down menu

I'm going through a Java Web Development class and trying to produce a small web app through Sun Java Studio Enterprise 7 2004Q4. I have two servlets, a couple of classes and two JSPs. At seemingly random times the "Execute" and "Execute (force reload)" options from the drop down menu you get when you right click a JSP fails to show up. It isn't grayed out, it just isn't there. Most of the time these options are there. And they can be there one time and then for the same project, same set of JSPs everything, they just disappear.
Can anyone tell me what dumb thing I'm doing to cause this?
And can anyone tell me how to fix it once I've done it?
Thanks
DR Crowley

First of all thank you for all the time you are spending on this. Believe me I know how frustrating it can be to figure out what is happening when you can't reproduce the problem.
On to your questions: I am running Windows XP Professional. I have checked and made sure that the extension is still .jsp and that it isn't changing. No I don't have the IDE set up to show extensions, however the icon beside the file is the jsp icon and when I go to Windows explorer (where I do have it set to show known extensions) it is a .jsp file and does not have the ever exasperating hidden extension that windows is infamous for. Sun Studio seems to recognize the file as a proper jsp (due to the icon).
As to your further questions. I am executing it by right clicking on the jsp file itself. And the jsp file is in the documents folder not in the web/inf folder.
At this point we are out of the class and it isn't nearly as important that I get an fix. We (our company) will probably not do jsp files and servlets thourgh Sun Java Studio Enterprsise. Instead we are looking at using Sun Java Studio Creater to do the view layer.
Thanks for all your help and the time you took to try to figure this out.

Enabling certain functions from a drop down menu

I am using the run-time menu along with case statements to control the flow of my program. I would like to ensure that a certain option is disabled until a number of other options have been selected. It is for a near field emissions scanning program. Basicly I would like to make sure that the file path and any notes about the sweep (product serial number, position, mode) are entered prior to selecting "run sweep" from the drop down menu. I know that an option can be disabled permenately by selecting disabled and grayed while the run-time menu is being setup, but this not what I want to do. I simply the "run sweep" option to be disabled until the sweep info and file path have been setup. How can I go about doing this? Thanks everyone!

On the block diagram, right click on the list control, select Create -> Property Node. Usually this will create a Visible property node. Left click on the word Visible, and select Disabled Items [ ] from the list. Then right click again and select Change to Write. You can then wire a numeric 1D array into the property node. Whatever numbers are in the array, those corresponding elements in the list will be disabled. So you can disable whatever you want before a certain action, and then use the property node again to enable items after the action is done. To enable all items, wire in an empty numeric array.
