Showing or hiding buttons/ enabling text boxes depending upon security role in Portal

Hi All,
Is it possible to show or hide ceratin text box or buttons depending on the security
role of the user ? Let's suppose we have screen with buttons update, delete. Now
we want that when a administrator logs in he will see a screen with data in editable
text boxes and update and delete button. In case of normal user, only the phone
no. will be editable and he can't see the delete button.
Is it possible using portal feature ?
Any suggestion is welcome.
TIA,
Sudarson

Sudarson,
Not that I know of. If you'd like to eloborate on the feature you're
building I can log an enhancement request for you.

Hi Daniel,
Thanks for the reply. I think, I should elaborate my query.
Yeah, programattically we can do the stuff. But my question is that isthere any
such feature in weblogic portal so that in stead of using is UserInRoleand doing
it programatically, we can do it thru portal, thus having bettermaintainability.

Sudarson,
Yes this is possible. You can programmatically check the logged in user's
role within your JSP and react accordingly (all standard J2EE). You
should
do this with caution however as you could quickly create a maintenance
problem for yourself. Declarative security externalizes all security
settings (groups. permissions etc.) away from application code and is
usually to be preferred.
Programmatic security through EJB mechanisms such as the SessionContext
isCallerInRole and getCallerPrincipal methods and web-tier methods
getRemoteUser, isUserInRole and getUserPrincipal.

Hi,
Try giving CHR(10) for line feed.
DECLARE
     CURSOR C4 IS SELECT CONTENT FROM CHAT WHERE TOID = :BLOCK3.FROMID;
     Str_Temp VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
     :BLOCK3.TXT_TO := '';
     OPEN C4;
     LOOP
          FETCH C4 INTO Str_Temp;
          EXIT WHEN C4%NOTFOUND;
          :BLOCK3.TXT_TO := :BLOCK3.TXT_TO || CHR(10) || Str_Temp;
     END LOOP;
     CLOSE C4;
END;Regards,

Declarative security of servlet- html view changes depending upon the role ??

          Hi All,
          There is acl for ejb methods and we can restrict roles to use certain
          methods of the bean. Now my question is that
          Is something possible in a declarative fashion so that user can have
          certain options enabled and certain disabled in the jsp/servlet output
          depending upon his role ?
          For example, let suppose we have a servlet MyServlet that creates an
          html output with some input boxes and buttons (add, modify, delete). Now
          is it possible, that ceratin user will only see modify button, some
          won't see any button, can only view the screen depending upon their role
          and verything in declarative fashion ?
          Any suggestion is welcome.
          TIA,
          Sudarson


Servlet security is defined in the context of the web application containing
          the servlet, and web app security provides for the declarative protection of
          resources like servlets, jsps and html pages; so the answer is no.
          See http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs61///webapp/security.html

How do I fill and show/hide a series of text boxes based on checkboxes?

I have a series of checkboxes on a form (each of which requires some additional information to be entered) and a series of text boxes further down the page to house any necessary detailed information.
I have hidden the detail fields and coded the form so that for each of these checkboxes that is checked a row of detail text boxes appears with the checkbox title in the activiy type field, and if a checkbox is subsequently un-checked the last row of detail text boxes is hidden.
The problem with this is that if the user unchecks any box other than the most recently checked one the data for the option they just unchecked still shows, but the data for the last option they selected does not.
Does anyone have a solution that would make sure the detail fields for the boxes that are checked is displayed in the detail text boxes that are showing when a checkbox is unchecked, regardless of the order in which the boxes are checked/unchecked?
This is what my form looks like, with the example where Cash Withdrawals is unchecked but appears in the detail and Remote Deposit Capture is checked but was hidden with the last line:
The detail groups are named Act1.child, Act2.child, etc. where the description field (filled in the example above) is Act1.type, Act2.type, etc.
Here is the script I'm using on the checkboxes to achieve what I'm getting now:
var useSet = this.getField("Set").value;
var clrSet = this.getField("Clr").value;
var useType = useSet + ".type";
var clrType = clrSet + ".type";
if (this.getField("CheckboxName").value != "Off") {
    this.getField(useType).value = "Check Box Desription";
    this.getField(useSet).display = display.visible;
else if (this.getField("CheckboxName").value == "Off") {
    this.getField(clrType).value = "";
    this.getField(clrSet).display = display.hidden;
and here is the script for the hidden boxes that determine what sets are filled and what sets are cleared and hidden:
Custom Calculation Script for "Set":
var sOne = this.getField("Act1.type").value.length;
var sTwo = this.getField("Act2.type").value.length;
var sThr = this.getField("Act3.type").value.length;
var sFour = this.getField("Act4.type").value.length;
var sFive = this.getField("Act5.type").value.length;
var sSix = this.getField("Act6.type").value.length;
var sSev = this.getField("Act7.type").value.length;
if (sOne == 0) {event.value = "Act1"}
else if (sTwo == 0) {event.value = "Act2"}
else if (sThr == 0) {event.value = "Act3"}
else if (sFour == 0) {event.value = "Act4"}
else if (sFive == 0) {event.value = "Act5"}
else if (sSix == 0) {event.value = "Act6"}
else {event.value = "Act7"}
Custom Calculation Value for "Clr":
var cOne = this.getField("Act1.type").value.length;
var cTwo = this.getField("Act2.type").value.length;
var cThr = this.getField("Act3.type").value.length;
var cFour = this.getField("Act4.type").value.length;
var cFive = this.getField("Act5.type").value.length;
var cSix = this.getField("Act6.type").value.length;
var cSev = this.getField("Act7.type").value.length;
if (cSev != 0) {event.value = "Act7"}
else if (cSix != 0) {event.value = "Act6"}
else if (cFive != 0) {event.value = "Act5"}
else if (cFour != 0) {event.value = "Act4"}
else if (cThr != 0) {event.value = "Act3"}
else if (cTwo != 0) {event.value = "Act2"}
else {event.value = "Act1"}

Hi Andi,
Please consider the following “solution” too.
Preliminaries
An indicator can be considered a variable in JavaScript.
If P is an indicator, m(P) refers to the value of the indicator.
Data for Control
There are four checkboxes: C0, C1, C2 and C3.
There is an indicator for each checkbox: CP0, CP1, CP2 and CP3.
If checkbox Ci is checked then checkbox indicator CPi has the value i+1; in other words, m(CPn) = i+1. If checkbox Ci is not checked then checkbox indicator CPi has the value 0; in other words, m(CPn) = 0.
There are four sets of detail fields: A0, A1, A2 and A3.
There is a detail fields indicator for each detail fields: AP0, AP1, AP2 and AP3. If detail fields Ak have the details for the checked checkbox Ci then APk has the value i+1; in other words, m(APk) = i+1. If detail fields Ak do not have any details for any of the checked or unchecked checkbox then APk has the value 0; in other words, m(APk) = 0.
The sets of detail fields are organized in sequence. The “top” or “first” set is AP0. It is followed by AP1. Then followed by AP2. The “bottom” or “last” set is AP3.
Consider an example with one checkbox selected. In this case m(CP2) = 3; m(AP0) = 3; m(CPi) = 0 for i=0, 1, 3; and m(APk) = 0 for k=0, 1, 3. See the following diagram too (see Figure 1).
Events, Processes and Additional Data for Control
Computation begins when a user event is captured by the system (such as a mouse up event in an AcroForm field like a button or a checkbox).
Checking Process
If a checkbox is checked (TNj), it is noted with an indicator (P0).
Shift Process
Given a noted checkbox, the search for a candidate set of detail fields to use for the noted checkbox begins.
The first candidate is the bottom of the sequence. This is also the current candidate, k. Thus k=3.
The current candidate is remembered by marking (TSk,j) the detail fields indicator (APk).
If k=0 then the shift process ends and the current candidate is the candidate.
If k > 0 and m(APk-1) = 0, the current candidate becomes APk-1 and step 8c is repeated.
If k > 0 and m(APk-1) != 0, then the shift process ends and the current candidate is the candidate.
Unchecking Process
If m(CPi) != 0 and m(CPi) = m(APk), then the checkbox can be unchecked (TRk,i).
Shift Process
If m(APk)=0 and m(APk+1) > 0 then shift (TSk,m(APk+1)). At the end of this shift, m(APk) > 0 and m(APk+1) = 0. Let k = k + 1.
If m(APk+1)>0 then repeat 9a. If m(APk+1)=0 then the shifting process ends.
Last Events and Proceses
Details fields can be initialized (TIk,j) and displayed (TDk,j) or cleared (TCk,j) and hidden (THk,j). These actions depend only on m(APk). However it would be a good idea to trigger these functions right after a shift process ends and on affected details fields.

Figure 1 is a process model of the checkbox process with one checked checkbox.

Showing RSS feed in Dynamic Text box (with hyperlink)

Hi all -
I am currently trying to pull RSS data into a project for my first time and am trying to get 3 (potentially 4) boxes filled with rss data that will be updated. So far, I am going with Actionscript 3. So far I have the code below, but it puts data in a listbox. What is the easiest way to put the data in three dynamic text boxes inside a movie clip, so I have one for the title, one for description and one for link (shown as 'read more' text but a link using the url from the rss value)?
I am really banging my head against the wall on this one and want to get it sorted asap, so any help would be GREATLY appreciated! I have also attached an image to show what I am trying to do:
I also want to know if it's possible to show rss values only if they exist. For example, my xml feed currently only has 3 items that change, and i will be assigning these to boxes, but is it possible to display a fourth if it exists, and if it doesn't it just shows the first?
My code so far:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
var xml:XML;
function onLoaded(e:Event):void
    xml = new XML(e.target.data);
    var il:XMLList = xml.channel.item.description};
    trace(il[1]);
         lb.addItem({data:il.description.text()
                            label:il.title.text()}):
loader.load(new URLRequest("http://www.rssfeedhere.xml"));

you would create a movieclip (exported for actionscript and class = rssItem) with 3 textfields and the display shown in your message and use something like:
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onLoaded);
var xml:XML;
function onLoaded(e:Event):void
    xml = new XML(e.target.data);
    var il:XMLList = xml.channel.item.description};
    for(var i:uint=0;i<il.length();i++){
        var mc:rssItem = new rssItem();
        addChild(mc);
        mc.x = 300*i%2;
        mc.y = 300*Math.floor(i/2);
        mc.titleTF.text = il[i].title.text();
        mc.descriptionTF.text = il[i].description.text();
        mc.readmoreTF.text = ?
loader.load(new URLRequest(http://www.rssfeedhere.xml));

Text flow into one or two column text boxes depending on the number of text lines

Question InDesignCS3
Is it possible to let text flow into one or two column textboxes depending on the number of text lines?
Example 1)
--Default text box--|
| Text line 1 |
| Text line 2 |
| Text line 3 |
| Text line 4 |
------------------- |
If there are more than 4 text lines in the in the text box, this box has to become a two column box. like example 2
example 2)
|Text line 1 | Text line 4 |
|Text line 2 | Text line 5 |
|Text line 3 | Text line 6 |

if (myTextFrame.lines > 4) {
myTextFrame.textFramePreferences.textColumnCount = 2;
} else {
myTextFrame.textFramePreferences.textColumnCount = 1;

How to populate a default value in Text box depending on Poplist selection

We have a requirement to populate a default value in a Text Box when user chooses a value from poplist (of type MessageChoice adjacent to the Text Box). This page is a Oracle Seeded Page. I understand that this is not possible using personalization. Can please someone guide me as to how should we proceed for this.

Can I add PPR event to the standard page?
YesAlso Can I change the Controller code of the standard page to catch the PPR event?
You need not change the controller, you can extend the controller!Although Oracle discourages extension of controller, but as of now there is no other alternative! These controller extensions will mostly survive upgrades, as Oracle won't be removing all base controller classes.Is it allowed to make changes in standard XML page and import it once again?
No, standard UIXML should not be changed. But y would u need that, you cando the Ui changes with personlization and if needed programitically in process request method of controller, by takeing control on that particular bean!
I hope i have resolved your queries.

Acrobat Pro 9, blank lines in text boxes vanish upon save

Folks,
Since I upgraded from Acrobat Pro 8 to 9, whenever I put blank lines in a text box, the blank lines disappear as soon as the PDF is saved.
Here's an example:
- Open a PDF file
- Click on text box tool in the toolbar (or from menu Comments->Comments and markup Tool->Text box tool
- Draw a box on the PDF page somewhere
- Enter "First line", then hit Return twice to add a blank line below, enter "Second line"
- Right now my text box contains two lines of text separated by a blank line
- Hit save
- Blank line vanishes in the text box. Now the two text lines are on adjacent rows.
This did not happen in either Acrobat Pro 7 or 8. I've been using textboxes consistently for years without this silly behavior.
Any suggestions? I've looked through forums and knowledge bases and such to no avail.
I have acrobat pro version 9.0.0 running on XPSP3.
Thanks!

Hello Petros,
I figured out how to make this work, at least on my computer. Hold CTRL key and hit ENTER. This leaves the space. Hope this works for you.

Redirecting user to acustom page depending on security role after glassfish

Hi,
I have a JSF application using glassfish authentication mechanism. I'm planning to use a jdbc realm and form based authentication (I'm using a jsp page to get username and password) . I have 3 different user roles (student, admin and staff)
However I cannot find how to redirect a user to a different page (Ex: staff report page if the logged in user is in the security role staff). I have configured sun-web.xml and web.xml to map the roles and groups. The problem is after authentication the user is always redirected back to the home page, which is the login page. I understand this is how the glassfish authentication works by default. But is there a way to navigate the user to a different page depending on his role.
I'm new to EJB security. Please help me on this subject. Thanks a lot in advance.

Check this blog post, which provides an alternate solution (You can choose the best possible solution based on your use-case).

OBIEE 11g: How to enable a filter dependent upon another filter

Hi,
Suppose I have two date fields and date1 is filtered over a range and date2 should always be between date1 - 2 and date1. How to enable a filter in this manner? Please advise.
Thanks,
Saud

Try to see that you can do it using 'Limit values by'
Or else try to port date2 logic in report, since all prompts end up with report.
Is there any specific reason for date2 values in prompt?

Giving Text boxes the properties of buttons they are on top of?

I am trying to create buy now buttons in adobe muse. But when I set my various roll overs for each button, the text box over rides it in preview mode. Is there a way to embeed the text into the button to give it the buttons properties? the roll over works fine on the outter edges of the button but once i hit the text box it goes away and i also lose the link. thanks!

Hi,
It sounds like you have a text frame on top of another page item: a rectangle, image, or a "Photoshop" button.
You should be able to the eliminate these page items and style the text frames themselves as buttons.
You can apply the standard attributes (stroke/fill/background image/rounded corners/opacity etc.) to text frames and use different state-specific values for each.
For a future release, we are considering implementing a widget that imparts its state (e.g., rollover) to all the contained page items.

How to get multiple row values in one text box while clicking one row from grid?

hi friends,
           i am working on flex4 web application i am using one datagrid ,it have two records(bills),one button and one text box.

One way with 10g:
select mgr,
       rtrim(xmlagg(xmlelement(empno,empno||',').extract('//text()')),',') emps
from emp
where mgr is not null
group by mgr;10g:
-- define this function:
create or replace
function concatenate(c Sys_refcursor, sep varchar2 default null) return varchar2
as
val varchar2(100);
return_value varchar2(4000);
begin
-- open c;
loop
fetch c into val;
exit when c%notfound;
if return_value is null then
    return_value:=val;
else
    return_value:=return_value||sep||val;
end if;
end loop;
return return_value;
end;
select mgr,
       concatenate(cursor(select empno from emp e where e.mgr=emp.mgr order by empno),',')
from emp
where mgr is not null
group by mgr;With 11g:
select mgr,
       listagg(empno,',') within group (order by empno) emps
from emp
where mgr is not null
group by mgr;
