Session variable in the title

I want to add my session variable in the title.
I used the following:
@{biServer.variables['NQ_SESSION.myvariable']}
and I got the default session variable value and not the current one.
I know about the way to add column and use it in narrative text, but I want it in the title.
Can someone please assist?

Trying to move a list of form variables to session variables of the same name

I am trying to move a list of form variables to session variables of the same name and I am having a lot of trouble.
I have never had to post of this forum with a language question in all the 10 years I have been using ColdFusion. I was a qa Engineer @ Allaire/Macromedia back when it was going from one to the other. I have a pretty good grasp of the language.
I have software that runs off a list. The fieldnames are variable and stored off in an array. It's survey software that runs off a "meta file". In this example; I have the number of fields in the survey set to 12 in the "metafile". I have each field declared in that file in array Session.SurveyField[1] and the above loop works fine. I include this "metafile" at the start of the process.
I cfloop around a struct and it works wherever I have needed to use it; such as here - writing to the database for example;
<CFQUERY NAME="InsertRec" DATASOURCE="Survey">
INSERT into #variables.SurveyTableName#
(EntryTime
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
,#Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]#
</cfloop>

   VALUES
    ('#EntryTime#'
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset thisname = "Session." & Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
,'#evaluate(variables.thisname)#'
</cfloop>

</CFQUERY>
NOW HERE'S THE PROBLEM: I am running into trouble when trying to move the form variables to session variables of the same name. It is the only part of the software that I still need the datanames hard coded and that is a roadblock for me.
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset thissessionfield = "Session." & Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfset thisformfield = "Form." & Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfset #thissessionfield# = #evaluate(thisformfield)#>
</cfloop>
I have tried it with or without the "evaluate"; same result. It doesn't give an error; it just ignores them (session variables look as such in the next page in the chain)
q01_name=
q02_acadtechorna=
q03_water=
q04_firstaid=
q05_cpr=
q06_lifeguard=
q07_aed=
q08_projadv=
q09_color=
q10_santaclaus=
q11_supervisor=
q12_supervisoropinion=
Note: they exist because I CFPARAM them in a loop like the above at the start of the procedure) - and this works just fine!
<cflock scope="Session" type="EXCLUSIVE" timeout="30">
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset dataname = "Session." & Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfparam name="#variables.dataname#" default="">
</cfloop>
</cflock>
I EVEN tried exploiting the Form.Fieldnames list using CFLoop over the list and the same sort of logic within and it still gives me nothing....
Here's the FORM.FIELDNAMES value
"Q01_NAME,Q02_ACADTECHORNA,Q03_WATER,Q04_FIRSTAID,Q05_CPR,Q06_LIFEGUARD,Q07_AED,Q08_PROJAD V,Q09_COLOR,
Q10_SANTACLAUS,Q11_SUPERVISOR,Q12_SUPERVISOROPINION"
Here's the logic; SAME RESULT - The session variables don't get set.
<cfoutput>
<cfloop list="#Form.FieldNames#" index="thisfield">

<cfscript>
thisSESSIONfield = "Session." & thisfield;
thisFORMfield = "Form." & thisfield;
#thisSESSIONfield# = #thisFORMfield#;
</cfscript>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
The CFPARAM in a loop with variable output name works just fine; so does the post (which I included above) as does the SQL Create, Param Form Variables, Param Session Variables, etc.
THIS even works for moving BLANK to each session variable, to zero them all out at the end of the process;
<cflock scope="Session" type="EXCLUSIVE" timeout="30">
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset thislocalfield = Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfscript>
thissessionfield = "Session." & thislocalfield;
</cfscript>
<cfset #thissessionfield# = "">
</cfloop>
</cflock>
Expanding on that code, you would think this would work, but it doesn't;
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
<cfset thislocalfield = Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]>
<cfscript>
thissessionfield = "Session." & thislocalfield;
thisformfield = "Form." & thislocalfield;
</cfscript>


<cfoutput>
<cfset #thissessionfield# = "#evaluate(thisformfield)#">
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
And see that debug code in the middle? To add insult to injury... When I uncomment that it shows me this. So it certainly looks like this should work....
Session.q01_name = "Me"
Session.q02_AcadTechORNA = "N/A"
Session.q03_Water = "Yes (certificate expired)"
Session.q04_FirstAid = "Yes (certificate is current)"
Session.q05_CPR = "No"
Session.q06_LifeGuard = "Yes (certificate expired)"
Session.q07_AED = "Yes (certificate expired)"
Session.q08_ProjAdv = "Yes (certificate expired)"
Session.q09_Color = "Gray"
Session.q10_SantaClaus = "Yes"
Session.q11_Supervisor = "Da Boss"
Session.q12_SupervisorOpinion = "Not a bad thing"
There must be some simpler way to do this. This way won't work against all odds even though it seems so much like it should.
So I end up having to hardcode it; still looking for an automated way to set these #@%$*@!## session variables over the list from the form variables of the same @#@!$#%$%# name. Do I sound frustrated???
No matter what I do, if I don't HARDCODE like this;
<cfset Session.q01_name = Form.q01_name>
<cfset Session.q02_AcadTechORNA = Form.q02_AcadTechORNA>
<cfset Session.q03_Water = Form.q03_Water>
<cfset Session.q04_FirstAid = Form.q04_FirstAid>
<cfset Session.q05_CPR = Form.q05_CPR>
<cfset Session.q06_LifeGuard = Form.q06_LifeGuard>
<cfset Session.q07_AED = Form.q07_AED>
<cfset Session.q08_ProjAdv = Form.q08_ProjAdv>
<cfset Session.q09_Color = Form.q09_Color>
<cfset Session.q10_SantaClaus = Form.q10_SantaClaus>
<cfset Session.q11_Supervisor = Form.q11_Supervisor>
<cfset Session.q12_SupervisorOpinion = Form.q12_SupervisorOpinion>
I always get this from my next page because the session variables are empty;

I tried duplicate as well, but I can not get the above to work...
Can anyone help me do this thing that one would think is simple????

I think if you use structure array syntax you should get the results you want.
<cfloop from="1" to="#Session.NumberOfSurveyFields#" index="arrayindex">
      <cfset session[Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]] = Form[Session.SurveyField[arrayindex]]>
</cfloop>
Or probably even easier.
<cfset session = duplicate(form)>

Using variables in the title of the graph

Hi Gurus,
I would like to use - for example a presentation- variable in the title of a graph.
I assign a value for that variable in dashboard prompt.
Does anybody know the syntax of using variable in the title of a graph
(Not in a Title view!)
Thanks in advance .

Show Report Variable in the title

Hi all,
I need to know if it's possible to show in a title of Answer a report variable and, if it's possible, how can I do.
Thanks a lot
Steve

Hallo Venkat,
Thanks for your reply!
I'd like to have the most recent loaddate in the title, that works fine now.
However, i'm struggling with the format of the variable, maybe you have a tip how to change that.
This is what i've done:
1. Created repository initialization block "get most recent loaddate". This refreshes every day. The query is basicly a select on my loadtable to get the max date from the loadtable.
2. Then i created a dynamic repository variable "get most recent loaddate" which retrieves from my initialization block.
When i set default to '31-12-2007' (just for checking), i creates TIMESTAMP '2007-12-31 00:00:00'.
3. So, when i use the variable in the title, i get all this text. I'd like to just see the date instead.
Do you have a suggestion how i can set the datatype to date from the variable?
Thanks
Sandra

Xml search and replace for 'Session Variables' in column title view

Hi Experts,
I have around 10 reports where measure column titles are displayed based the session variable.
Below is the syntax I have used in the column title
@{biServer.variables['NQ_SESSION.VariableName']}
Now I would like to replace the above syntax with some static text. To do this, I am trying to use the xml search and replace feature in the catalog manager.
For some reason, catalog manager is unable to find the syntax in the xml file. I have tried using escape character also for the apostrophe by using &apos, but no luck.
Any pointers on how to replace the text?
Thanks

Using Analysis get the xml conversion for @{biServer.variables['NQ_SESSION.VariableName']} from Advanced tab's xml code
use this code to find in catalog manager, if you able to find then go for search and replace option.
I think this should work for you.

Need Calendar Year as a Variable in the Title of a Table using WAD 3.5

I am using Web Application Designer 3.5 for the first time.
I am modifying a template that has the following table object in it:
</object><object>
         <param name="OWNER" value="SAP_BW"/>
         <param name="CMD" value="GET_ITEM"/>
         <param name="NAME" value="TABLE_4"/>
         <param name="ITEM_CLASS" value="CL_RSR_WWW_ITEM_GRID"/>
         <param name="DATA_PROVIDER" value="DATAPROVIDER_5"/>
         <param name="CAPTION" value="Employee Information"/>
         <param name="WIDTH" value="966"/>
         ITEM:            TABLE_4
</object></P>
The Caption of the table is currently set to "Employee Information". I need the Caption of the table to say "2007 Employee Information" where the year is the previous year. In other words, if the web application is executed in 2008, the title would say "2007 Employee Information". If the web application is executed in 2009, the tilte would say "2008 Employee Information".
I am very new to BW and WAD so a detailed explanation would be greatly appreciated.

Goto the Query Description and click on the Text variable icon.
Create a text variable of processing type as customer exit which populates the previous year value.
Use this text variabkle along with the Query Description. So your description will look something like &TXT_VAR& EMPLOYEE INFORMATION
Attach this query as dataprovider to the table item in WAD and you can see the table caption as the previous value followed by Employee Information.
Hope this helps.

Using Session Variable in the Column Level Security

My Question -
1. I created an initialization block with initialization string by calling a new session variable CTP_ID_LIST in the sql command, given appropriate database connections and when I exit out of Block, and chosen Row-wise initialization. I do not see a new session variable created under variables list. Why does this happen? Please help me on this.

Hi,
This happens when you select Row-wise Initialization.
The row-wise initialization feature allows you to create session variables dynamically and set their values when a session begins. The names and values of the session variables reside in an external database that you access through a connection pool. The variables receive their values from the initialization string that you type in the Initialization Block dialog box.
You can also use the row-wise initialization feature to initialize a variable with a list of values. You can then use the SQL IN operator to test for values in a specified list.
Example: Using the table values in the previous example, you would type the following SQL statement for the initialization string:
select 'LIST_OF_USERS', USERID
from RW_SESSION_VARS
where NAME='STATUS' and VALUE='FULL-TIME'
This SQL statement populates the variable LIST_OF_USERS with a list, separated by colons, of the values JOHN and JANE; for example, JOHN:JANE. You can then use this variable in a filter, as shown in the following WHERE clause:
where TABLE.USER_NAME = valueof(NQ_SESSION.LIST_OF_USERS)
The variable LIST_OF_USERS contains a list of values, that is, one or more values. This logical WHERE clause expands into a physical IN clause, as shown in the following statement:
where TABLE.USER_NAME in ('JOHN', 'JANE')

How to pass a session variable to the bussines layer?

Hello,
I am doing a management application, and I need to store the login user that make insertions on any table, and the pages does not has backing beans.
I had try to do that bindding the value field of a hidden attribute with the session variable, but it only change the value of the one. My second attempt was make an javascript function to do that on the page´s load, but it not looks like a good solution.
Someone knows a way to sent the session value to the bussines layer? O a way to access from the Bussines layer to the session?
Thanks
Tony

<p>
Hi,
</p>
<p>
Another solution (that I always use) is storing simultaneously the same data in HttpSession (in view layer) and session hashtable (in businness layer).
</p>
<p>
You can put and get these data in any businness component using following methods:
</p>
<p>
<font face="courier new,courier" size="2" color="#0000ff">
private void setToJboSession(String key, Object val){</font>
<font face="courier new,courier" size="2" color="#0000ff"> Hashtable userData = getDBTransaction().getSession().getUserData();
if (userData == null) {
userData = new Hashtable();
userData.put(key, val);
}</font>
</p>
<p>
and
</p>
<p>
<font face="courier new,courier" size="2" color="#0000ff">
private Object getFromJboSession(String key){
return getDBTransaction().getSession().getUserData().get(key);
}</font>
</p>

Access Session variable across the hosts

Hi,
I am facing an issue. Please find the following scenario.
I have a login page which is under a secure host. When the login is successfull, the control will be directed to a non secure host, where I have to access a session variable which is set in the LoginPage (which is a secure host). Can I do this?
Can any one help me in solving this
regards,
Jo

To retreive a varable from another JVM or indeed another host you would need to use Remote Method Invokation (RMI), calling getSecureSessionID() or isSessionOK(sessionID) or whatever from the programme running in the remote JVM.
The method in general is floored unless the RMI is secure, I have no experience of encrypting this but I'm sure it is possible. You're non-secure-host must have the funcionality to communicate with the secure-host securly, otherwise the secure-host is not secure.

How to pass session variables via the URL in CF10?

Hi
I have a client with some old Flash functionality (AS2). The SWF allows the user to upload an image. However a new session is being started when the upload script is called. I have added the CFID, CFTOKEN and JSESSIONID to the URL as I did in the past to maintain the session but I believe you cannot do this anymore with CF10, if this is correct can anyone point me in the right direction of how I would accomplish maintaining the session for the upload?
This has a note about CF 10 - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1178420

Hi Shaun
Are you facing the same issue with all the browsers?

Creating filtered view on the physical layer ussing session variable USER

Hi:
I´m creating a view on the physical layer, the view needs to be created dynamically. So depending on the user (using the session variable USER) the view is created with the data a particular user is able to see.
Fisrt I imported the table and changed it´s properties to be created through a "Select Statement" so i don´t needed to change the mapping on the bussiness model layer.
The consistency check was OK but i´m not able to see data in answers, even using the Administrator user. Have anyone tried to do this? Here is my query.
Thanks

whay not use the same filter in the content tab of the logical table source?
check the physical sql sent to databse using web-admin-manage sessions-view log and see if there is any unexpected behavior. also run the same query in db and see iff you get the results in databse itself.

Session variable filters in the integration between OBIEE and webcenter

Hello All,
I have a customer with the requirement to make sure that reports created in answers and containing sessions variables in filters definition will be correctly filtered once called from webcenter.
So if an OBI report is diplayed in webcenter and contains the same type of filters (based on session variable), will the results be filtered based on the specified variable?
In other words can we use session variables in the integration between OBIEE and webcenter?
Thanks Olayinka

Is there a PHP variable that will fetch the TITLE of the file?

I learned (thanks to David Powers) that you can use $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] to refer to your current URL, which is useful in situations like putting a "Share on Facebook" button on your page.
However, some of these social networking sites allow you to also put the Article Title in the same button, so I was wondering if there was a PHP variable I can use for *that*. This way, by specifying the title of the article in the aptly-named title tag of the page, I can put those "submit this page to" links as includes that don't need to be specifically-edited for each page.

Create a variable for the title and use it in both places.
<?php
$title = 'Things you always wanted to know about...';
?>
<title><?php echo $title; ?></title>
// later on
<?php echo $title; ?>
Alternatively, if your page content is generated dynamically, you can store the title in the database.
Another technique would be to base the title on the page name.
$page = basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'], '.php');
$title = ucwords(str_replace('_', ' ', $page));
That would store "About Us" in $title if the page is called about_us.php.

Session variable causing ADODB.Field error '800a0bcd'

i have a page that before the session variable was added,
would display the
text i required if the recordset was empty.
Now i have a session variable on the same page and if the
recordset is
empty, instead of showing the text i need displayed, i get
the following
error:
ADODB.Field error '800a0bcd'
Either BOF or EOF is True, or the current record has been
deleted. Requested
operation requires a current record.

If i remove the session variable code from the page, it works
fine.....why
the conflicts?

If they do
there name is stored in a session and used later on the

they do not exist, they are suppose to receive a message

How to print a request variable in the name of a section?

Hello all,
I have a session variable created in the RPD called VarWorstStore
and I have a prompt which sets a request variable with the same name.
Now when I put a report which is filtered on this variable then I can see that the variable is changing when I press go in the dashboard prompt.
However, I call this variable in a section as well (go to page options - edit dashboard and click on rename of a section)
Now I type: @{biServer.variables['NQ_SESSION.VarWorstStore']} and check the box Display section heading.
Now when I save the dashboard I can see the value of the session variable. However, when I change the session variable with the prompt, thenb I can see that the report is changing, but the title isn't.
Can anyone help me on this? My reference on this was: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_f689sAiiG-E/SKv8Fxu7wNI/AAAAAAAAAPk/pppwQ1DdEhg/s1600-h/obi-ee-variables-overview.jpg
I think it is a bug, but perhaps someone knows
OBIEE version:
Build: 10.1.3.4.1.090414.1900
Release Version: Oracle Business Intelligence 10.1.3.4.1
Package: 090414.1900

Thanks for all your responds!!
However, I was thinking in first instance on a narrative view myself indeed, however this is not good enough for me, because I really have an almost pixel perfect dashboard.
But the thing with the prompt works!!! What I have done is making an extra prompt with the default value set to the session variable and then I set a presentation variable in the same prompt, and after that I am filtering the reports on the presentation variable in stead of the session variable.
But I cannot find anywhere where to hide the prompt, can you tell me this?
The only way I can hide things is to set permissions I gues, but then I also guess is that the prompt will do not do its tasks when the user has no permissions to this prompt.
Hope you can help me out on this last part!!
