Allow cell contents to cross page

Is it possible to allow text in a cell to run over more than 1 page? I have a table with 2 columns and 16 rows, which MUST fit in to 3 A4 pages; unfortunately, it is currently 5 pages long, as all cells are kept on a single page.

No. If you had done a search in the forum you would have found that answer. Tables only split between rows. Have less text in the cells and use more rows instead and you will be able to fit your table on fewer pages.
You could use Layout breaks and column breaks to achieve a similar layout in the WP document.

I need to restrict printing but keep the Content Type and Page Extraction allowed. How do I keep both the content type and page extraction displaying allowed?

When I change the settings to allow for the content type and page extraction and save it, it shows allowed. When I close the pdf, reopen it, review the security properties, it shows the content type as allowed and the page extraction as disallowed. I need both to stay at allowed, how do make this happen?

The moment that you select not to allow any kind of change done to the file then pages extraction is automatically not allowed as well. There's no way around that.

Can InDesing flow cell contents across pages?

I'm working in InDesign CS5 on a book project that contains a very long table (3 columns by 300+ rows over about 120 pages). The cell contents is all text and the center columns' cells contain some very long passages (the left column contains dates and the right column is short source citations). The table was originally created in Word Perfect -- I coverted it to an MS Word document, checked it and saved it, then imported it into ID using the Place command. All goes along very smoothly until I get to a row where the text in the center cell is very long indeed -- too long to fit on less than one whole page, so ID forces it to the next whole page (see the screen shot below). Problem is, this is intended to be a continuous table. In MS Word, the text in the cell happily flows to the next page. I need to do that in ID, but HOW? Any advise is gratefully appreicated. Thanks. Kirk

ID will not break a cell across a column or page boundary. About the only thing I can think of to do waht you want would be to add a row to the table, then adjust the height of the tall row manually so the cell goes overset and cut the excess, then paste into the new row.

Is it possible to use wildcards to match cell contents in an if statement?

I need to return a ID along with some other information on a page by page basis, so that the information comes out linked by position. I use a couple of loops and if statements to navigate through the document. I am able to use exact matches of cell contents which is fine when the contents doesn't vary. But the IDs, though they have a similar pattern, are all different. In a menu driven search, I am able to find what I need with '150^9^9^9^9^9-^9^9^9' But when I try putting this (or any number of [0-9], *, ? combinations) it fails. Is it possible to use wildcards? The symbol used for the match (==) makes me suspect that it is not possible and that only literal, exact matches will work. But I wanted to check with the experts before giving up.
Thanks

Thanks for the input. You're right, a GREP search is much more efficient. But what I'm trying to do and the circumstances here don't allow me, I think, to go that route. I am trying to generate a list of values coming from several textframes on a single page and have them come out so that I can tell which values belong together.
I'm using an inherited document with masters that were created 'manually'; the index numbering for textframes and tables is random. I navigate through the pages, looping through textframe indices asking ' does this textframe exist?' If so, I ask if it is a table -- if no, it is a simple textframe and I ask about the ID, if yes, I ask if the contents of cell (0,0) (invariant position and contents) are equal to the table I want.. I am sending the ID and other pieces of information from the table to one row of a new table on a new page. So the ID and other information from a single page are linked by being in the same row.
I know this a little 'off-normal' -- I'm using the search to navigate through the document and find things by location the way you do with a spreadsheet. I have devised a work-around that helps me get around the fact that the ID is not invariant. I create a list of the (exact) IDs from another document, equating them to a variable ('a'). I then loop through the list of IDs and ask if the contents of the textframe is equal to 'a'..This works o.k, unless there happens to be an extra space, a different kind of hyphen, etc. It would be so much easier if I could use the wildcards that work in a menu-driven text or GREP search in script just to ask about the contents of the textframe.
Thanks again
pcbaz (Peter BIerly)
P.S. we have since rewritten the masters so this problem will not exist in the future -- we now know exactly which textframe and/or table indices to refer to to get any particular bits of information and don't need to ask questions about the contents.

Customizing the Cell Content of a Pivot Table

Hi,
I have been away from ADF for a few years (since 10g v 1.3.1) and am quite impressed with all the Faces functionality added to the 11g release. The application I wrote relied heavily on pivot tables which back then, I had to use stored procedures in the database and dynamically views to display information. I am very interested in moving this application to 11g and taking advantage of the PivotTable component. One thing the application does is change the style of cells based upon the object being presented. I have been reading:
Oracle® Fusion Middleware
Web User Interface Developer's Guide for Oracle Application
Development Framework
11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
B31973-03
And am very interested in section 26.8 Customizing the Cell Content of a Pivot Table.
I easily created a pivot table and would like to change the formatting of various cells. I created a backing bean for a test page and added the Example 26–4 Sample Code to Change Style and Text Style in a Pivot Table to the bean.
public CellFormat getDataFormat(DataCellContext cxt)
CellFormat cellFormat = new CellFormat(null, null, null);
QDR qdr = cxt.getQDR();
//Obtain a reference to the product category column.
Object productCateg = qdr.getDimMember("ProductCategory");
//Obtain a reference to the product column.
Object product = qdr.getDimMember("ProductId");
if (productCateg != null && productCateg.toString().equals("Sales Total"))
cellFormat.setTextStyle("font-weight:bold")
cellFormat.setStyle("background-color:#C0C0C0");
else if (product != null && product.toString().equals("Sales Total")
cellFormat.setTextStyle("font-weight:bold");
cellFormat.setStyle("background-color:#C0C0C0");
return cellFormat;
Almost verbatim except changed the literals to select data in my use case domain. My question is: How do I invoke this message from my pivot table? I need to pass it a instance of the DataCellContext. The example is great and illustrates what I am looking to do but does not go into the implementation details required. Is there a sample app available for download that demonstrates these capabilities?
Thanks,
Jeff

Hello,
I haven't fully understood your question.
Is it: How do I call the getDataFormat() method from my pivot table?
If so , you need to set the dataFormat attribute of your pivot table.
ex: <dvt:pivotTable id="pt2" var="cellData" varStatus="cellStatus"
value="#{bindings.YourView.pivotTableModel}"
headerFormat="#{viewScope.yourBean.getHeaderFormat}"
*dataFormat="#{viewScope.yourBean.getDataFormat}"*
contentDelivery="immediate" pivotEnabled="false"
columnFetchSize="-1" rowFetchSize="-1"
/>
I also put the *headerFormat* attribute which allows to customize the headers
I hope I understood your question ;)

Expanding/Enhancing a table cell contents

I have a search utility that shows my database query results in a read-only table.
Say this table T has columns C1-C5 and rows R1-R5.
Data returned in column C3 has a VARCHAR count between 2000-4000.
Currently the table only displays somewhere in the region of 500 characters (on mouse hover) for this column, the page depends how far you can stretch the table column.
My question is three part:
- is there an ADF component that will allow me to copy the contents of a cell, for example, column C3 row R1.
- is there an ADF component that will allow me to expand the cell(C3/R1) in a popup window? (And enable other cells in the C3 column to do the same)
- is there an ADF component that will allow me to open the cell contents in a new window? or .txt (And enable other cells in the C3 column to do the same)
Jdev Version (11.1.2.4)

User, which jdev version do you use?
All this can be done.
1) Yes, but this depends on the use case (e.g. per drag & drop or copy & paste using the keyboard)
2) Yes a popup which you e.g. show on hoover which shows all text or you click on the cell and open a popup
3) Yes, if your table is in click to edit mode or you show a form with all attributes of the selected row in a new window (which allows you to layout the components better).

ADF plugable content in a page

Hello all,
Looking into the best way to allow individual contributors to add content to a page. I was wondering if anyone could make suggestions on the best way to implement this functionality within ADF? First thought I had was to use ADF regions or facets in someway. Honestly still working out the requirements for this so I don't have anymore details other than based on the context the page or tab would display different data (i.e user clicks something displaying different content based on selection). I believe we want to have enough flexibility to allow users to add more content at a later time via a plugin or update. I'm very new to the ADF world so any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

How can i optimize my SEARCH ENGINE???I use godaddy.i contact them and they give me this conclusion:Search engines are not pulling up your other pages on your website because it is created with javascript. the content on the pages, (photo gallery.....

conclusion from godaddy:
Search engines are not pulling up your other pages on your website because it is created with javascript.
the content on the pages, (photo gallery, My Recipes/Blog, History, Friends) need to be formatted to HTML, PHP or CSS. No search engines (google, Yahoo, Bing) can crawl//analyze webpages built with javascript.
See if Apple allows iweb to create the pages in HTML format and ask how to make those changes.
I spend more then 1 hour on the phone with them but we didn't find the solution...
please i need help because like this nobody can rich my website...
www.chefdiego.com
thank you

The part of iWeb pages that give the search engines problem is the navbar. That's javascript based. One way to get around that is to create another blank page in the site that's not included in the navbar.
Add a text based navbar in that page with just the other pages in the site.
Also you can use that page for creating the sitemap for Google at Create your Google Sitemap Online - XML Sitemaps Generator.
Have you let Google know your site exists? This website describes how to get it recognized: Get your iWeb website found in search engines like Google Yahoo MSN and Bing.

How to extract characters or digits from cell content

Hi,
I'm trying to find out how I can grab a part of a cell content. Example: The cell has the content "1.22.333".
Now, I need to just grab the last part of that (and sometimes also the middle part). I tried to use the FIND and RIGHT function but the problem is that they need the amount of digits which can be different (1.2.3 or 1.22.333).
How can I grab/calculate just the "1" or "22" or "333" from that?
p.

Hi papa,
Here is a workaround, but it involves a word processor such as Pages or Word.
Copy your cells and paste into a blank word processor document.
In Pages, go to:
Menu > Edit > Find > Find...
Click on the Advanced button.
Type a full stop ('period' in AmericanSpeak) in the Find box.
In the Replace box, use the 'Insert' Pop-up menu to insert a Tab.
Replace All.
Copy and paste into blank cells in Numbers:
How can I grab/calculate just the "1" or "22" or "333" from that?
Grab what you want!

How to Get Text to Appear on in a Cell of a Cross-Tab

<p>Have you ever felt the pain of not having enough control over the content of the cells in the cross-tab? For instance, ever wanted to put text or even just round the numbers to the nearest thousands to save room? Did you know that the Display String formatting formula can help you accomplish this? </p><p>This sample will help you accomplish this</p>

sorry i got the answer.

ALV editable cell contents - transfer to own comp context without Enter

Hi,
Have WD ALV. Some cells have been made editable. Cell contents are only passed back to own component once user has pressed Enter. There is a button with action on the view. If this button and corresponding action is triggered without the user pressing enter first when maintaining the editable cell, the new cell contents are not available.
Is there a way to manually trigger the frontend ALV contents to own component context to ensure working with what has been entered on-screen in ALV? I seem to remember you can trigger a data check but not sure if this is the solution, will check, but grateful for any feedback in meantime.

Hi there
IE7 doesn't give me the add new page option and I get 404 error when trying to access the "How to contribute" section.
I'll load up Firefox later (this browser usually works when IE7 doesn't always work properly).
I'll copy the stuff to the wiki when I've got the browser sorted out.

Parsing cell contents

In excel I used the command "text to columns" to parse the contents of a single cell. The result would be to have the cell contents stretched across a series of cells. The separation was user defined based on common delimiters eg. comma, tab, space, etc. Can this function be performed in Numbers?

Hello
Welcome to the club.
I didn't met this kind of function when I looked at the 168 functions available in Numbers.
Some of them have a range of cells as operand but all of them apply to a single cell.
*Go to "Provide Numbers Feedback" in the "Numbers" menu*, describe what you wish.
Then, cross your fingers, and wait at least for iWork'09

I have allowed remote content from one specific newsletter but images are still not displayed, is there anything further I can do?

I receive a regular newsletter from the manufacturer of a railsim. I have allowed remote content for this email address only in the security section of the options window in Thunderbird. However, the remote content (images) are still not appearing - only those little box thingies which, if I click on them, take me to various pages on the manufacturer's website. I want this facility but it's a real drag independently clicking each box to see if it is something I wish to add to my railsim.
So, having set Thunderbird to accept remote content from only this email address (all others are blocked), why is it not displaying the content?

What exactly have you got in this location.
Tools > Options > Privacy
click on 'Exceptions'.
what is entered in 'Site' and 'status'...word for word.
It may be easier to post an image.
''re: various pages on the manufacturer's website.''
Is the 'manufacturer's website - various websites or the same website that also owns the email address.
So email address may say 'info @ foobar .com'
and the website is www.foobar.com and different pages of that same website?
eg: noreply @ marshalls-seeds.co.uk Enter: marshalls-seeds.co.uk
but not sub domain - in example the 'cs' is sub domain:
eg: noreply @ cs.hm.com Enter: hm.com
else you would need to enter each sub-domain as a separate site.
