Multiple Selects in a single form

I have six select boxes and I want them in a single form.
Below are the outputs for the select boxes.
<cfform
action="Resolution_History.cfm?year=#year#&sessiontype=#sessiontype#&btype=res"
name="form">
<select name="SRINPUT">
<option value="">SR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findSR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<select name="HRINPUT">
<option value="">HR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findHR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<select name="SCRINPUT">
<option value="">SCR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findSCR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<br>
<select name="HCRINPUT">
<option value="">HCR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findHCR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<select name="SJRINPUT">
<option value="">SJR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findSJR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<select name="HJRINPUT">
<option value="">HJR
<CFOUTPUT Query="findHJR"><Option
Value="#BILLNUMBER#">#BILLNUMBER#</cfoutput>
</select>
<INPUT TYPE="Submit" VALUE="Submit" alt="submit
button">
</cfform>
Once a user selects a number it will send them to an action
page. On the action page I need the below IF statement to work so
it will set the variables. It isn't working at this time. Its not
bringing the values of billnumber, houseorig or the billtype.
Does anyone have any thoughts? I know it is close to working
and I need to set all of the inputs to input4 to generate my
queries so I don't have to duplicate them.
<cfif form.srinput gt "0">
<cfset s = '#houseorig#'>
<cfset r = '#billtype#'>
<cfset input4 = '#srinput#'>
<cfelseif form.hrinput gt "0">
<cfset h = '#houseorig#'>
<cfset r = '#billtype#'>
<cfset input4 = '#hrinput#'>
<cfelseif form.scrinput gt "0">
<cfset s = '#houseorig#'>
<cfset cr = '#billtype#'>
<cfset input4 = '#scrinput#'>
<cfelseif form.hcrinput gt "0">
<cfset h = '#houseorig#'>
<cfset cr = '#billtype#'>
<cfset input4 = '#hcrinput#'>
<cfelseif form.sjrinput gt "0">
<cfset s = '#houseorig#'>
<cfset jr = '#billtype#'>
<cfset input4 = '#sjrinput#'>
<cfelse>
<cfset h = '#houseorig#'>
<cfset jr = '#billtype#'>
<cfset input4 = '#hjrinput#'>
</cfif>

give'em a break. he is probably under pressure (like we all
have been). in response, i do not even see some of the variables
you are checking in the second script in the first. get this one
straight and i think it'll work.

Let's say for example user have to the use the form to enter all 10 items or few like 5 on their stock form into 4 different textbox field each lines of your form, however these items go into a "Stock_table" under Single insert transaction query when submit button is pressed.
Please anyone help me out, on how to get this concept started.

Hello,
I have a way to do this, but it would take some hand coding on your part. If you feel comfortable hand writing php code and doing manual database calls, specificaly database INSERT calls you should be fine.
Create a custom form using the ADDT Custom Form Wizard that has all the rows and fields you need. This may take a bit if you are adding the ability for up to 20 rows, as per your diagram of the form area. The nice thing about using ADDT to create the form is that you can setup the form validation at the same time. Leave the last step in the Custom Form Wizard blank. You can add a custom database call here, but I would leave it blank.
Next, under ADDT's Forms Server Behaviors, select Custom Trigger. At the Basic tab, you enter your custom php code that will be executed. Here you are going to want to put your code that will check if a value has been entered in the form and then do a database INSERT operation on the Stock_table with that row. The advanced tab lets you set the order of operations and the name of the Custom Trigger. By default, it is set to AFTER. This means that the Custom Trigger will get executed AFTER the form data is processed by the Custom Form Transaction.
I usually just enter TEST into the "Basic" tab of the Custom Trigger. Then set my order of operations in the "Advanced" tab and close the Custom Trigger. Then I go to the code view for that page in Dreamweaver and find the Custom Trigger function and edit the code manually. It's much easier this way because the Custom Trigger wizard does not show you formatting on the code, and you don't have to keep opening the Wizard to edit and test your code.
Your going to have to have the Custom Trigger fuction do a test on the submitted form data. If data is present, then INSERT into database. Here's a basic example of what you need to do:
In your code view, the Custom Trigger will look something like this:
function Trigger_Custom(&$tNG) {
if($tNG->getColumnValue("Item_1")) {
$item1 = $tNG->getColumnValue("Item_1");
$textbox1_1 = $tNG->getColumnValue("Textbox_1");
$textbox1_2 = $tNG->getColumnValue("Textbox_2");
$textbox1_3 = $tNG->getColumnValue("Textbox_3");
$date1 = $tNG->getColumnValue("Textbox_3");
$queryAdd = "INSERT INTO Stock_table
(item, Qty_In, Qty_Out, Balance, Date) VALUES($item1, $textbox1_1, $textbox1_2, $textbox1_3, $date1)"
$result = mysql_query($queryAdd) or die(mysql_error());
This code checks to see if the form input field named Item_1 is set. If so, then get the rest of the values for the first item and insert them into the database. You would need to do this for each row in your form. So the if you let the customer add 20 rows, you would need to check 20 times to see if the data is there or write the code so that it stops once it encounters an empty Item field. To exit a Custom Trigger, you can return NULL; and it will jump out of the function. You can also throw custom error message out of triggers, but this post is already way to long to get into that.
$tNG->getColumnValue("Item_1") is used to retrieve the value that was set by the form input field named Item_1. This field is named by the Custom Form Wizard when you create your form. You can see what all the input filed names are by looking in the code view for something like:
// Add columns
$customTransaction->addColumn("Item_1", "STRING_TYPE", "POST", "Item_1");
There will be one for each field you created with the Custom Form Wizard.
Unfortunately, I don't have an easy way to do what you need. Maybe there is a way, but since none of the experts have responded, I thought I would point you in a direction. You should read all you can about Custom Triggers in the ADDT documentation/help pdf to give you more detailed information about how Custom Triggers work.
Hope this helps.

Multiple Select boxes in one form

Does anyone know if it is possible to have multiple select
boxes inside one form? I have six different select boxes that are
generated by six separate queries. The action page for all six
select boxes is the same so I just want one submit button so users
don't get confuse. I don't want to cluster up the page with submit
buttons but I may resort to that option.
My problem is the select boxes generate a number and when
that number is submitted I want to pass two other variables with it
to the action page. I tried putting a "Form" tag around the 6
select boxes. Inside each select box I tried to add an "Input
type="hidden"" and give thte name and values that I needed. That
worked for the first select box but when I tried the second select
box it used the hidden values for the first select box.
If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it. Or if you
have any other suggestions I am open to any.
Thanks

Paross1,
I wasn't thinking about that and you gave me a great idea.

Get all the values from a multiple select in a multipart form

Hi there!
I am using a form with enctype="multipart/form-data" in order to upload files from the form.
I have read this page: http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/using.html and everything works well for my form.
The only problem is that I can't get all the values from a "multiple select" html object. I get only one value.
Using servlets I have used this method:
public java.lang.String[] getParameterValues(java.lang.String name) But now I have enctype="multipart/form-data" in my form and I can't use this way...
Is there a way to get all the values of a multi-valued parameter?
Thanks a lot!
Stefano

Multiple selection but delete single item

Hi,
please help me to find a solution!!
I have 2 listboxes. listbox Description is populated by XML.
When user selects multiple items at the same time from the Description listbox, they are populated in the listbox and are removed from Description listbox. that works fine.
But the issue is if the user accidently selects one of the multiple selected items at the same time wrong and want to delete a single items, this doesnt work anymore.
I can not even click on each single item.
I try to find a way how to enable user to populate multiple items at the same time and be able to delete each single item, which then should return back to the Description listbox.
I would really appreciate if you could help me on this!!!
This is my sample: https://acrobat.com/#d=l0mujTOFduSJFele5R5i3g
Thanks,
Diana

Would you not just reverse your code ..instead of populating listbox from the selections in description and deleting the items out of description, remove the items from listbox and update description then remove the items from listbox.
Or am I missing something?

Multiple selections in an HTML form

The option selector (<select>...</select>) in an HTML form allows the
user to make multiple selections. However, when the form parameters
are posted to an XSQL page, only the first value selected will be
assigned to the corresponding XSQL parameter.
This is very unfortunate, because I would like the selected values to
be used in a query like this:
<xsql:query>
select ...
from ...
where ...
and elem in ({@list})
and ...
</xsql:query>
where 'list' is the name of the option selector. However, since only
the first value selected is substituted, the query does not work.
The <xsql:include-request-params/> will "rowify" the values selected,
but this can only be utilized by a style sheet associated with the
XSQL page.
Does anyone know how to get access to all the selected values in the
XSQL page?
HELP!

Hi,
Here is an approach that may work for you.
In the registration process, assign each individual a userid... e.g. bob123.
When they log into your site, create a SESSION variable, SESSION.userid = bob123.
In your db, for every player have two fields, one is the userid of the person that is attached to that player, and another field for the jersey number. You could also have a field for assigned/unassigned.
Populate the grid with the unassigned players. Have the empty jersey number field on the grid and make it editable. When an individual assigns a jersey number to the person, (you can have them update after each person selected or at the end), you can let a cfc update the db and using their SESSION.userid, they become the "owner" of that player. The update also will update the db with their jersey number. The update can also turn them from unassigned to assigned so noone else can "claim" them.
Now anytime the user logs in, they'll have their players, easy to get to using a WHERE sql statement = WHERE SESSION.userid = bob123.

Multiple selects() within a single VM

Is anyone aware of any contention issues when running multiple threads within a VM where each thread has it's own select statement?
I have an home grown app server that allows me to run multiple applications within a single VM. The applications are unrelated however they sometimes communicate with each other via TCP. All of them are very network intensive ( 500 messages a second where each message is around 200 bytes ). These apps are usually single threaded where the main thread is a select() loop.
Therefore, each application is a single threaded select() loop but there are multiple applications running within a single VM.
I am seeing performance issues when two apps running within the same VM try to send messages to one another via TCP. When the two apps are running on different boxes one app can send about 10,000 messages a second to the other app. However, when the apps are running within the same VM ( localhost TCP connection ) I can only transfer about 1000 messages a second.
Are 2 selectors running within the same VM a problem? Is it synchronized within the VM so that only one select can fire at a time?
I am running on a dual proc RH3 box with plenty of memory.
Any ideas?

Works for me, though I'm trying on Windows. Test program below. I get >10,000 replies and responses per second over loopback with both "java SelectPingPong both" (one VM) and running client and server on separate VMs.
Does this program get only 1000 messages/s on Linux? What VM version?

Multiple Selection Property in Single Column Listbox

Hello All,
I have taken a Single-column list box and have enable the multiple selection property of the listbox.
In fact, i want to find out the values of the multiple rows selected in the listbox. But, i couldn't found any of the property of this listbox that can indicate the index or value of the multiple lines that are selected.
Can anybody help me to resolve this issue? What is the approach i can take to find out the multiple rows selected in the listbox?

Here is an example where the value is read from a property node.
the Value becomes an array when you elect a selection mode that allows multiple selections. (and thats the reason you can't write Selection mode while the VI is running

Checked some items of multiple-selection list box when form loaded in infopath

Hi
I customize sharepoint list with infopath. I have multiple-selection list box and want to checked some items of that automatically when form loaded. how can do this?
Thanks.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to pre-select some items in the Multiple-Selection List Box.
I recommend to follow the steps below to achieve this goal:
Click Default Values under Data tab in InfoPath, expand the dataFields and navigate to the Multiple-Selection List Box field.
Set the Default Value of the Multiple-Selection List Box field.
Right click the field under the Multiple-Selection List Box group, then select Add another Value Below and set the Default Value for this field.
Repeat step3 based on the number of the items that you want to be pre-selected.
More information are provided in the link below:

Multiple select lists in tabular form

Hi,
I created a tabular form with two select lists (Queries are same for both the select list and results around 300 records in the SQL).
I am getting the following error:
report error:
ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
If I changed Select list to POP list, I am not getting error.
Please suggest how to user select list in this case.

Please suggest how to user select list in this case.It is not possible. There is a 32K limit on the HTML generated for select list items. (As a type of report, tabular forms are also subject to the 32K limit on the size of a report row.)
In terms of usability 200 options is about the maximum size I would consider sensible for a select list ( and for select lists in tabular forms, much, much fewer!)

Accessing Multiple Identical Schemas from Single Form

Hi,
I'm working with oracle 9i.
My question is as follows:
If one has muliple schemas that are all identical, is it possible to setup an oracle form (Oracle Forms 9i) that is able to switch between schemas by selecting the schema from an objecton the form like a drop down list etc..I'm wondering if it is possible to design 1 form that can be used to access all schemas from a single logon. if so, how would I go about doing this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I hope my question above is clear. If not I am happy to supply more info.
Kind Regard,
Damian

Your question is not very clear. Of course your logon will determine which schema. If you want to switch schemas, when the form is already running then you can use ALTER SESSION as Aleksandar indicated, but I would not recommend using it unless all form changes were committed. Another alternative is to create another session in the same schema by using OPEN_FORM, then logout of schema in this second session and login into new schema.

and was able to create a form w/ten blank rows for insertion. however, the htmldb_item package that is used to write out the form controls does not provide an api to write out a file browse form control. is there another api i can use? if not is there a known kludge?

Scott,
i modified your suggestion and came up w/a more straight forward solution. here's the complete solution...
1. create a report based on a sql query:
select
x.IMG_SKEY
,x.IMG_TITLE_TX
,x.IMG_SRCH_KEYWORDS_TX
,x.file_browse
,x.CATEGORY_CD
from
(select
htmldb_item.hidden(1,IMG_SKEY) img_skey
,htmldb_item.text(2,IMG_TITLE_TX,12) img_title_tx
,htmldb_item.text(3,IMG_SRCH_KEYWORDS_TX,12) img_srch_keywords_tx
,'<input type="file" name="f50" size="30">' file_browse
,htmldb_item.select_list_from_query(4,null,'select category_name_tx , category_cd from image_categories order by 1',null,'NO',null,null,null,null,'NO') CATEGORY_CD
from "#OWNER#"."IMAGES"
where rownum < 0
union all
select
htmldb_item.hidden(1,null) img_skey
,htmldb_item.text(2,null,12) img_title_tx
,htmldb_item.text(3,null,12) img_srch_keywords_tx
,'<input type="file" name="f50" size="30">' file_browse
,htmldb_item.select_list_from_query(4,null,'select category_name_tx, category_cd code_value from image_categories order by 1',null,'NO',null,null,null,null,'NO') CATEGORY_CD
from dual
union all
select
htmldb_item.hidden(1,null) img_skey
,htmldb_item.text(2,null,12) img_title_tx
,htmldb_item.text(3,null,12) img_srch_keywords_tx
,'<input type="file" name="f50" size="30">' file_browse
,htmldb_item.select_list_from_query(4,null,'select category_name_tx, category_cd code_value from image_categories order by 1',null,'NO',null,null,null,null,'NO') CATEGORY_CD
from dual
note: union the null selects to get as many null rows as you want. i named the file control f50 to avoid conflicts. this control name is an array parameter in the wwv_flow.accept procedure that the form submits to. also, i unioned the null selects to the original table query which fetches no rows. this probably isn't necessary, but i left it in from the original example and had it select nothing because i wasn't sure if htmldb refrenced the column datatypes at all.
2. create a page item with the same name as your file control(f50) and change the display = never.
question: Scott, can you give me some insight into why you need this page item for the files to be uploaded. the files won't upload w/o the page item.
3. create a submit button which submits the page to itself. *make sure the button "database action = SQL INSERT action" or your files will not be uploaded to the wwv_flow_file_objects$ table
4. create a process to handle the processing of the form:
process point - after computations and validations
run process - once per page visit(default)
process:
declare
v_img_skey number;
begin
for i in 1..htmldb_application.g_f50.count
loop
if htmldb_application.g_f50(i) is not null then
begin
     select universal_seq.nextval
     into v_img_skey
     from dual;
insert into images(
img_skey
,img_title_tx
,img_srch_keywords_tx
,icat_category_Cd
,img_owner_name_tx
,img_last_updated_dt
values(
v_img_skey
,htmldb_application.g_f02(i)
,htmldb_application.g_f03(i)
,htmldb_application.g_f04(i)
,:APP_USER
,sysdate
end;
end if;
end loop;
end;
note: the value returned from the array htmldb_application.g_f50(i) will be the internal name of the file uploaded. i stripped down my code and removed the sections that move the file from flows_files.wwv_flow_file_objects$ into an image object and inserts it into my custom table, but anyone can use the technical notes on otn and metalink to figure it out.

Hide/Show items in Multiple selection in InfoPath 2010 Form

I have an I an InfoPath 2010 browser enabled form with four sections. Inside each section is a checkbox and a textbox
What I need to do is, have a user select a desired items by checking the checkBox and the items that are not Checked are hiden. They can select (Checked) all the four CheckBoxes. I am using rules but can't seems to get this working. Any help will be appreciated.

Ok, here is how you have to do , use expression as I mentioned in my previous post, and then use a condition like this
(../my:group1/my:field1 = string(true()) and ../my:group2/my:field4 = string(false()) and my:field6 = string(false())) or
(../my:group1/my:field1 = string(false()) and ../my:group2/my:field4 = string(true()) and my:field6 = string(false())) or
(../my:group1/my:field1 = string(false()) and ../my:group2/my:field4 = string(false()) and my:field6 = string(true()))
here I am checking for all three fields, if either of these is true then it will hide other section
Hope this helps!

How to filter with multiple selection on a single column on external list, currently only one filter per column is available.

I have external list where i want to apply multiple filter for every column like we do in Excel spreadsheet - we can filter a spreadsheet column by selecting multiple checkbox for every column. I am using Sharepoint 2010
Is this possible in sharepoint 2010? Any idea how to acheive that?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Rahul,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to use filter with multiple values on a column of an external list in SharePoint 2010.
Per my knowledge, there is not an OOB way to achieve it. As a workaround, you can custom the web part to implement it. There is an articles for your reference:
http://blogs.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/posts/13-11-05/add-excel-like-multi-select-filtering-to-your-asp.net-datagrid
In addition, you can use a third party solution to achieve it, please take a look at:

I hope this helps.
Thanks,

Creating a multiple selection image library using forms

Hi,
So, I have a client who I need to present with a pdf showing the images they hold currently. I have created an InDesign doc, which is 3 x 3, and has 19 pages. I have attached image for visual ref as to what each of the pages looks like.
What I am trying to achieve, is that with each image there are three tick boxes. Yes, No and Preferred.
When running the form through Acrobat, it picks up the fields fine, but each row is treated as one set of fields. i.e. I cannot select more than one tick box per row.
How can I split these up so the client can freely tick any combo of the boxes (so they can check Yes and Preferred if they want) - without having to manually go in and edit the name for each field (513 times).
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Miles

The problem is you have very little control over how the Form Wizard behaves. Each group of check boxes does need to have a unique name. It's possible to automate the process of adding the check boxes by using JavaScript, but this would probably only make sense if you need to do this a lot.
If you do, you could create something that would automaticaly populate blank image fields with a collection of images, creating as many pages as is necessary, but this would involve a bit of programming.
