Hi,
I have a report page uses the following block of pl/sql as its source.
This calls a function by passing page items and this functions returns sql query.
DECLARE
V_SQL VARCHAR2(4000);
BEGIN
V_SQL := WF_PCK02.search_wb_pa(
:P1000_WB_ID,:P1000_PA_ID,:P1000_RIVER_NO,:P1000_GENRE,:P1000_LOCATION,:P1000_WATER_DEPENDENT,:P1000_BASELINE,
:P1000_NBT_PRESSURE_TYPE_ID,:P1000_PURPOSE,:P1000_NBT_SIC_DESC,:P1000_ACTIVITY_DESC,:P1000_NBT_MORPH_ACTIVITY,
:P1000_SW_ASSET,:P1000_ORDER_BY,:P1000_R1);
RETURN V_SQL;
END;

10319 - River Coupall SURFACE WATER River Y 2b 2b Y N
10320 - Allt a Bhiorain SURFACE WATER River Y 2b 2b Y N
if the user is searching for PAS the results look like this.

I had written a java script to select the current row, and page refreshes when I click
any where on the row and displays the display item saying that
currently selected id is 10317
or
Currently selected id is UKS79923100
and also assigns the 10317 to GLOBAL_WB_ID or UKS79923100 to GLOBAL_PA_ID
Now my user want to change the color of the currently selected row.
For this I am trying to change the report template like this
Column Template 1
<td class="t15data"#ALIGNMENT# style="background:#d1e2f3">#COLUMN_VALUE#</td>
Column Template 1 Condition
NVL(#2#,0) = NVL(:GLOBAL_WB_ID,0);
BUT
it is giving the following error.
Encountered the symbol "<" when expecting one of the following: ( ) - + case mod new not null others table avg count current ........................
ERR-1025 Error processing PLSQL expression. :GLOBAL_WB_ID = NVL(10317,0);
Then I changed the condition to substitute the #2# in single quotes like this.
NVL('#2#',0) = NVL(:GLOBAL_WB_ID,0);
BUT it is giving this error
Encountered the symbol "10317" when expecting one of the following: ( ) - + case mod new not null others table avg count current ........................
ERR-1025 Error processing PLSQL expression. :GLOBAL_WB_ID = NVL('10317',0);
I am unable to understand where the error is coming from.
Please help me.
10317 is the first row of the result set.
Thanks a million in advance.
