Setting up dynamic pages in DW

If I set up a new dynamic website as PHP will it still
support JS? I will be using both on this site.

JavaScript will be supported unless your site visitors
disable it in their browsers.

Dynamic page in region as a portlet not displaying in portal template

As the title suggests I have a portal template that contains a region at the top . within this region i have included 2 portlets, first is a dynamic page (a simple banner title ) then a navigation page beneath them .
when I am logged in as a specific user it displays correctly , when I log onto the page without logging in - the dynamic page does not display ,yet the navigation page does . I have clicked on every display to public check box , assigned public user with view privilege and everything else along those lines . Any ideas ??
thanks in advance , Chris

Hi Chris: Just to be specific, did you go to the providers tab in Navigator, the locally built providers link then the provider which contains your dynamic page and check the access set directly on that page? You can either set the dynamic page to have its own access (overriding that of the provider) or set the provider itself to be public.

Dynamic Page Layout - Opportunity Product Revenue

Hi gurus,
I am trying to setup a dynamic template for "Opportunity Product Revenues"
I set it up successfully in the object. However, this data is exposed only as a related list of Opportunity and not directly. Now, when I go into the "Opportunity" customization, it only allows me to set up static page layouts, with no option to setup the Dynamic page layouts through the Related list.
Please help..

Hi Jonathan,
Many thanks for your response.
Our CTE is already on R19. We want to experiment and be ready when our PROD is upgraded to R19.
Can you help me with the requirement, if you have an idea please? I would really appreciate the help.
Thanks

Can we set the dynamic data source when using getReportParameters() ?

Hello!
I have a report where one of its parameters refers to a list of values (LOVs). This list of values is an SQL Query type. When the data source used in the report is defined in the BI Publisher server, I'm able to get the report parameters using the getReportParameters() function in my application. However, if the data source is not defined the function throws an exception, which is understandable.
I decided to dynamically set the data source so that even if the data source used by the report is not defined in the BI Publisher server, it still will be able to get the LOVs for the parameter. I tried setting the JDBCDataSource of the dynamicDataSource for the ReportRequest object that I passed to the getReportParameters() function. Please see the sample code below:
reportRequest.dynamicDataSource = new BIP10.BIPDataSource();
reportRequest.dynamicDataSource.JDBCDataSource = new BIP10.JDBCDataSource();
setReportDataSource(reportRequest.dynamicDataSource.JDBCDataSource, connectstr, jdbc, dc); //function to set the values for JDBCDataSource object
reportParams = webrs.getReportParameters(reportRequest, uid, pwd); //call the getReportParameters
I was expecting this to work as this is what I did to dynamically set the data source before calling the runReport function. So, my question is -- can we set the dynamic data source when using getReportParameters() ? I tried this both in versions 10g and 11g. It does not seem to work on both versions.

Stephanie

report_id column of apex_application_page_ir_rpt can help us uniquely identify each saved report.
We can assign this report_id value to a page item and this page item can be put in the Report ID Item text box of the Advanced section of the Report Attributes page of the IR.
This should load the saved report identified by report_id and you can get rid of javascript

CASE statement in a dynamic page

I have written a query using a CASE statement in the select portion to evaluate column values and produce a text string. The query runs fine in sql*plus, but when I attempt to add the code to a dynamic page and compile it, I get the following error message:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 720:

Hi Chetan,
I still get an error message even when I attempt to create a small dynamic page with your cursor. The error message is posted below. I am definitely putting the cursor declaration between <ORACLE></ORACLE> tags. Any Ideas?

HTML POST method in a dynamic page

Greetings Portalists,
I have a basic question here. I need to pass the values of an html form (constructed within a dynamic page) to a procedure to process the users' inputs. The form is highly dynamic in terms of numbers of parameters, but we're talking about upwards of 200 text fields that require passing. Now, I realise that this in itself isn't a problem, and I've set this up without too much difficulty using method="POST" - but the called procedure in the form's action=... attribute seems to need to be publicly-executable for this scenario to work. For a production environment, I don't want to keep the PUBLIC grant on the procedure, but whenever I revoke it, the Portal throws me back a 404 Not Found when I submit the form.
So my question is this -- how can I tighten the security around executing the procedure? Are there any best practices for this sort of situation (which I can't imagine are all that rare)?
I've searched through many various web toolkit and Portal documents looking for an answer to this but to no avail, so any suggestions really would be highly appreciated.
Many thanks.
*.s.*

Granting execute to public make a procedure accessible to portal_public (the schema) which contains the mappings to all the authenticated light-weight users. You can keep the public or portal_public grant for execution on the procedure and yet have a good control on who would be able to see your form. That would be based on your pl/sql logic.
For instance, if you wish to keep it for only authenticated users (users who are in registered with your portal) or with any certain group of users, you can always apply a block containing code for checking their group memberships. If a user belongs to your desired group, you can let the desired logic expose to them, otherwise not.
Please check the portal pl/sql api's that come with portal version you are using, for help.

Supress empty page which is due to dynamic page (smartforms)

hi all,
i' ve got the problem that i get an empty page at the end of my printout.
the forms is defined as following:
first_page - following page: next_page
next_page - following page: next_page
and in the main window i have a dynamic page (via command node)
confirmation_page - following page: manual_guide_page
manual_guide_page - following page: first_page
the problem is the following page of my last dynamic page, but it is not possible to leave the following page in that case empty and it is necessary to use a page with a main window.
has anyone an idea how i can solve this problem??
it it possible to stop printing a page that is empty in smartforms, as i can't set any conditions for the page itself.
thanks!

you can put condition like in your program lines
DESCRIBE TABLE gt_lips LINES gv_lines.
gv_tabix = sy-tabix + gv_tabix.
in COMMAND node put condition like GV_TABIX LE GV_LINES
you wont get empty pages...

Form in Dynamic page not working when checkbox is used.

I have created a form using dynamic page. The form most have display fields and a checkbox field. When I check a box, it assigns 'Y' value and when unclick, it assign 'N' to the database field.
When I submit the form, the procedure which is supposed to save the form data never gets executed. Well, at least it says, page not found HTTP 404 error.
Interestingly if I make this field a text box and manually enter 'Y' or 'N', and then submit the form, the procedure is executed. Data gets saved.
Is the checkbox not supposed to be used for a database field because checkbox value can be assigned only using javascript and the procedure never get that value ?
Can you please tell me how to use a checkbox for a database field using dynamic page ?
thanks,
Mainak

Sharmila,
When I said, the form does not get submitted, I meant that the procedure does not work. The form gets submitted but the procedure does not work. It gives HTTP 404 error. That is what perplexes me. I am unable to understand why the procedure does not work when I click a checkbox.
May be you can make this work. I am hopeless about this.

Problem with a Link calling a dynamic page

Hi!
I wanted to create a link calling to a dynamic page. This dynamic page displays a PDF depending on the parameter, the thing here is that I don't know how to set the bind variables or more likely how to say that the value of those variables is going to come from the link in which the dynamic page it's been called.
I have my PL/SQL code where I have this bind variables
id_dep
id_tipo
and I went to the Customization Form Display Options button and there i made them public.
now on a page i created a link with the following structure, in order to call the dynamic page and send the parameters.
http://your.portal.com/portal/pls/portal/SCHEMA.DYN_YOUR_DYN_PAGE_NAME.show?p_arg_names=YOUR_PARAMETER_NAME&p_arg_values=YOUR_PARAMETER_VALUEso my links looks like this one:
http://desarrollo06:7778/pls/portal/TRANSPARENCIA.NOSEQUE.show?p_arg_names=idDep&p_arg_values=11&p_arg_names=idTipo&p_arg_values=25so I was told that I had to check that the parameters bindings are present or set, but I don't know how to do that... 'cause I thought I already did...
can youi help me?
thanks In Advance
aTTe
Blume

Hi AMN,
well what I meant was that, see in the manage page for the Dyn Page there are some options bellow, in the one that sais Customize you can test the page, and I put there the values for id_dep and id_tipo as *11* and *25* then run the page and it opens the PDF but when I click on the link you suggested
http://desarrollo06:7778/portal/pls/portal/TRANSPARENCIA.NOSEQUE.show?p_arg_names=idDep&p_arg_values=*11*&p_arg_names=idTipo&p_arg_values=*25*
u_u but it doesn't open the PDF.
...The code I put in my last post is the code for my dyn page, and there's an if where if it doesn't find a file to deploy it show a message that sais "No hay Datos o No Aplica", so when I clic on the link it takes me to the dyn page but shows the message for no data found...
so I don't know what's going on.... if supposedly the dyn page is receiving the same values in different way, why it doesn't work with the link? -_-

C:set with dynamic variable name

Hello,
we have a litte market system.
we iterate over the articles to display them on a page
foreach article type we have to include a popup, but only once foreach article type.
So if we have more than one article of the same type, the popup should be included only one time.
<c:forEach var="article" items="#{MyArticleController.entities}">
    <c:if test="${requestScope[article.dtype] != true}">
        
        <c:set scope="request" var="${article.dtype}" value="1" />
    </c:if>
    
</c:forEach>I think the line with the c:set seems to be the problem.
How can I solve this problem. How can I set a dynamic value and test against it later?
Thanks
Dirk

You were close with your first example.
However as noted, the <c:set> tag doesn't accept a dynamic expression for the "var" attribute.
Suggested alternative: instead of using request attributes, have a seperate map
<jsp:useBean id="articleTypeUsed" class="java.util.HashMap"/>
<c:forEach var="article" items="#{MyArticleController.entities}">
    <c:if test="${not empty articleTypeUsed[article.dtype]}">
        
        <c:set target="${articleTypeUsed}" property="${article.dtype}" value="1" />
    </c:if>
    
</c:forEach>That should solve your issue with translating this java code into jstl.
Whether the mix of JSTL and JSF/ui will work well together is a completely seperate issue, and one I can't really help with.

Dynamic pages failing on XP

Here's the situation, I've got a dynamic page with a form that accepts a value to be passed to another dynamic page. The dynamic pages have worked fine on our Windows 2000 clients (IE6), we've just moved to new Win XP clients (IE6 xpsp1) and now the value gets dropped randomly and sends us to our error page. It will not work the first few times and then start working and then not work, it's on and off, no real pattern. I can't figure out what it is, since it's a simple form post, Win XP IE shouldn't have any problems with it, but it does. The code for the two pages is below. Any help would be appreciated.

When it doesn't work, the p_doc_num= <blank>, telling me that the value is getting dropped somewhere.

Yes.
I assume you want to SELECT some data from the remote table in order to build the dynamic page? Set up a db link to the remote database and then refer to the table you want by using USER.TABLE@DBLINK.

Accessing the preference path in a dynamic page

All,
I would like to access the preference path
so that I can use the get_names and get_value functions, in a dynamic page. When we create the dynamic page, we don't know what the preference path is. so, how do I get the preference path? e.g Add the dynamic page as a portlet into a content area page.
Thanks
Sanjay

Currently the validation of the PL/SQL block of a dynamic page is not in the
context of procedure show. So you can not directly refer to the parameters such as p_reference_path.
There is a way to do it:
1. use bind variable as the reference path
<ORACLE>
declare
parm1 varchar2(30) :=
portal30.wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('parm1', :path);
begin
htp.p('The value of Parameter 1 is ' | | parm1);
end;
</ORACLE>
2. In the Parameter Form Setting, set the default value for the bind variable to #p_reference_path
Before the PL/SQL block is executed, bind variable path will be bind with the value of procedure show's
parameter p_reference_path.
Hope this works.

Passing parameter to a dynamic page portlet

We need to create a drill-down report using pl/sql, but it's not working when we passed a parameter. We did the following:
1. Create a package and a store procedure.
2. The store procedure creates the report and the look-and-feel of the report.
3. Create a dynamic page with the following code:
<ORACLE>DECLARE
BEGIN
mvdata.interbay_ops_rpts_pkg.ops_detail_procssr_rpt(p_processor);
END;
</ORACLE>
4. Set the parameter to "public" in the "customization form display option".
5. Create a page group and a page.
6. Clicked on properties of page and then clicked on the parameter tab.
7. Added a parameter named "p_processor_code"
8. We also added the portlet parameter under the "portlet parameter values" and set the parameter to be a page parameter and select the name of the parameter and click OK.
9. Launch the URL: ttp://iasdev01.bftg.com:7782/pls/portal/url/page/PG_GRP_DEVELOPMENT/PG_OPS_DETAIL_PROCESSOR?p_processor_code=DUBOIS.
10. When we tried to launch the application we get an empty report(doesn't execute the parameter).
11. Edit the page and went into layout mode.
12. Click on the "edit default" of the dynamic page portlet and put the value of the parameter and it works without any problems.
I don't understand why it doesn't take the parameter with the page url. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I had more luck with PL/SQL items. Try something like this:
declare
zip varchar2(10);
begin
zip := portal.wwpro_api_parameters.get_value('zip', 'a');
if zip='94065' then
... do something ...
end if;
end;Peter

Editing Local Dynamic Pages - How To?

I figure this should be something simple but I can't seem to figure out how to do it. In the past I believe this is something I was able to do in DW.
I've set up my website locally running off my local server and everything there seems to be working in DW. I can view the live page and live code. However, I can't view the live page and edit that page.
Does anyone have any recommendation on how I can best add some code into a dynamic page? I'm running CS5. Here's a screenshot of an example. Let's say I wanted to insert some simple code where the arrrow is.
I really need some help on this as it's something I was under the impression I could do. Thanks for any help you can give.

When I turn off Live Code and leave Live View on the code displayed is just of index.php (no matter what live page I'm on). So I can't really edit anything.
That's right. Those files contain nothing to edit. It's all just PHP programming that the server parses into content from the database and countless other files (server-side includes).
A WordPress site really is a one page site -- index.php. That page is re-created on the fly each time someone clicks a link or uses the search bar.
If you have worked with WordPress before, you should know you cannot edit dynamic pages in DW. You can only edit the parts that make up those pages. Those parts are inside your Themes folder.
header.php
sidebar.php
footer.php
index.php
single.php
page.php
archive.php
category.php
tag.php
etc...
Design View is pretty much useless. You must be able to work with code.

Dynamic Page Numbers

Dynamic Page Numbers
How do I make dynamic page numbers? So that for each record it will have its own page number?
i.e.
record 001 is 3 pages, at the bottom of its pages it says 1 of 3, 2 of 3 and 3 of 3.
record 002 is 1 pages, at the bottom of its pages it says 1 of 1.
record 003 is 4 pages, at the bottom of its pages it says 1 of 4, 2 of 4 , 3 of 4 and 4of 4.
Is there a way to do this??
Thanks,
Rob

Hi Robert
This is how:
Create a "Page Number" field, say PN, and a "Total Pages" field, say TP, in the margin.
Set "Visible" to no for both the fields.
Create a Boilerplate in margin with text:
Page &<PN> of &<TP>
Against both the fields, set "Reset At" property in "Page Numbering dialog" to the Repeating frame that surrounds record00?

Sripathy
