APEX 41 Field Help like popup message box

I am using Apex 4.1
And would like to use a similar popup message box to what Apex has when you click on a label that has help defined.
For a list that is created in shared area I am wanting to use the userdefined area 1 as the message text to tell users a bit more about an icon option when they take their mouse over the field label.
Is the popup message that is used for HELP something that can be called.
I saw in previous posts about creating a separate form and calling it through a java script call. It can't still be that difficult in 4.1 since they have the field level help.
Any help is appreciated.

    How to change it into Yes or No Button?
    Thank you.

    I don't think you can change those buttons. However you may try use some rich Javascript library like YUI (Yahoo! User Interface) to pop up custom alert and confirm boxes.

  • Customizing the popup message box

    I know how to use DreamWeaver behaviors to create a popup
    message, but I would like to make the color of the box something
    other than the standard gray. Is there a way to do this by adding
    the color number to the code or by using a graphic for the box? Can
    someone explain how to do this and/or share the code.
    Thank you!

    If you are referring to 'tooltips' which are pulled from the
    TITLE
    attribute, no, those too are rendered by the browser.
    If you are referring to a javascript based tooltip, then you
    likely can
    change the colors, but I'd have to see the javascript and/or
    the CSS
    associated with it.

  • PresaveAction() Popup message box with save and cancel button

    Hi,
    I want to give user an option from popup box with the message "Are you sure to Save you record".
    I got below javascript code but don't know how to show two buttons on popup if user wants to recheck before final saving then he should click CANCEL otherwise SAVE button.
    <script type="text/javascript">
    function PreSaveAction()
    alert("Your request has been submitted");
    return true;
    </script>
    Please advise in above code. 

    Hi,    
    For your requirement, you can use the JavaScript Confirm Box which will contains two buttons in a popup window.
    Here is a demo about checking the value in the “Title” field, if it equals “asdf”, then a Confirm box will come out, then user will be able to choose whether to save or not.
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var $j = jQuery.noConflict();
    function PreSaveAction()
    var txtStatus = $j(":input[title='Title']").val();
    if(txtStatus == "asdf")
    alert("Invalid Input");
    var r=confirm("Are you sure to Save you record?");
    if (r==false)
    var statusfocus = $j(":input[title='Title']");
    statusfocus .focus();
    return false;
    else
    return true;
    </script>
    Feel free to reply if there still any questions about this.

  • Windows Help and Support Message box keeps popping up

    I am not really sure what happened but my keyboard stopped working.  It kept typing out random letters and not the ones I typed.   At the same this "Windows Help and Support" box started popping up.  So, I can't use my keyboard but the pop up window keeps interuping Netflix and vidoes and I can't watch them and  Word documents.  Pretty much anything I do gets interupted by this box and stops whatever I am trying to which is trying to build a website at the moment. 
    I uninstalled the support.   It no longer appears in my program list but the box still keeping popping up and stopping everything I am doing. 
    What I am suppose to do?  It doesn't say its the HP Support it says "Windows Help and Support" at the top of the box. 
    I have tried everything.

    Hey @c4yp ,
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand the keyboard on your notebook is not working properly, and the Windows Help and Support window keeps opening. 
    This popup is typically caused by a spyware or malware infection. Please follow the steps below and let me know if it helps.

  • Can I use like a message box with PL/SQL?

    Hi!
    Well I was making some tests on my forms then i realized that when i erased something it was just like that, no anouncement or something like that and it was gone, so i think users of this might make mistakes, iike erasing somedata very easy, so I want to do something to send a confirmation message in case that the user intents to erase something, something like a messagebox ....
    so I want to use PL/SQL code to do this and i believe that the code should go in the +... before processing the form. + section for my form...
    can you help me? 'cause I don't know how to do it?
    thanks in advance.

    You may use the javascript code embedded into pl/sql to prompt users. This means you can put this in all of those places where you may include your html code. for example, in the submit button's html specs.
    You may keep the following code in the additional pl/sql code region and then call such a function (eg, alertCancel() ) in the submit button of your form. Here is a working example.
        htp.p('
              <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="Javascript">
              function alertCancel()
                     if (confirm("Do you really want to cancel this request?") {
                          window.close();
           </script>
        ');Just do a google search for how to call a javascript function from html, if you need.
    hope that helps!

  • Popup message box yes no

    When the user presses the submit button, i want a popup with yes no to come up asking 'are you sure you want to submit'. I have found a javascipt example and is easy to implement but i'm not sure of the url to use. if they answer no then fine, do nothing. if they answer yes i need to continue on with the processing. do i need to use a url (i cant even imagine what would need to go in it) or is there some other command i can do? maybe somehow issue a submit or sql update database action? or is there a better way?

    Hello,
    Apex is using a built in variable called REQUEST. Each application button sets the value of REQUEST to the name of the button or to the request value attribute associated with the button.
    Apex also using a pre-defined JavaScript function called doSubmit(REQUEST).
    As you are talking about confirming a 'SUBMIT' action, all you need to do, in case of positive answer from the user, is to submit the page, using doSubmit('SUBMIT');
    The page will be submitted to the server, and all the validations, computations and processes on the page will be evaluated, as if you didn't use the confirmation popup.

  • Webplayer Authentication pop-up message box while ...

    So I was watching a stream in this case ESPN, however has happened previously on other channels.
    When the popup-message box shown below appears, this has started happening recently when watching a stream via the webplayer.
    I presume that this is something that end users should not be seeing, or if it is then the message should be clearer as to what end users are expected to do.
    I have cancelled the popup without apparently affecting the stream.

    .. I've just come across this for the first time and decided to search the community board for an answer. It does look like a server side process that uses wouldn't normally see, but at least when closing the username and password request, streams don't stop working. Suppose it could be a tad annoying if users have to continually canx this request.

  • Send XML to client: message box

    Hi,
    In a BPM workflow I'm putting together, I need to open a message box for information
    (title, message, OK button). In the documentation, I found that I should send
    an XML document to a client that looks like this:
    <message-box title="title" style="information" options="ok">
    <actionid>"1013679664318"</actionid>
    </message-box>
    Which I did: I added a "Send XML to client" action in the "True" part of a decision
    node with a message-box element and its attributes, and actionid as a nested element.
    When I trigger the workflow, it goes through all the expected steps but the window
    does not pop up at all. I could not find the reason why anywhere. So has anyone
    experienced the same problem ? If yes, how did you solve it ?
    Cheers,
    Yann

    Hi Sudhar.
    I don't think your workflow will execute the next node before you mark the current
    node as done. Conseqently setting the done in the decision box isn't possible.

  • System Message Box ???

    I'm trying to set up a system message box that comes up after
    a user enters in some text. If what they typed in equals a stored
    system variable, then it comes up to warn them. Is there a way to
    have the message box display a variable. I want it to say, "Sorry,
    the term {system variable entered by user} already exists". I've
    tried playing around with the equals sign, quotation marks,
    brackets etc, but can't get it to work.
    Any suggestions would be awesome, thanks

    Chris's reply is correct and pretty much the only way to do
    it.
    If your user enters a term, like 'happy go lucky', where are
    you storing
    that term?
    Whatever variable stores that term is what needs to come
    between the
    ^carats^ to concatenate it to the rest of "the text"
    "Sorry, the term "^your_variable^" already exists"

  • Help with JOptionPane -- Popup Dialog Boxes

    I need to create a popup dialog box that looks like this:
    http://img88.imageshack.us/img88/6900/jbuttonpm2.jpg
    red = JTextField (Where the user will input a number that I need to store)
    green = Drop Down List with 1,2,3 as choices
    blue = JButtons for OK and Cancel
    So yeah, I need an easy way to collect a bunch of information from the user, and this was the best way I could think to do it. The user has to enter a number for all of the fields, but is there any way for the field to have a value of 0 there by default?
    I read some of the Java tutorials for using the JOptionPane's showXXXDialog but I wasn't sure if that can't of method could create such a complex dialog box. Any help would be really appreciated. How can I make that dialog box and get all the input I need from it?

    Create a panel containing red and green and pass it as message to JoptionPane.showConfirmDialog with OK_CANCEL_OPTIONS to have blue. If it returns OK_OPTION read and use values from panel. That's it.

  • Disable the pop-up message box "How would you like to open this file" to open pdf file??

    Hi,
    is there any way i can stop the pop-up box displaying to open pdf file in sharepoint document library? Right now whenever i am trying to open pdf file, asking "how would you like to open"  Read only or edit mode. currently MIME Type is setup
    but still pop-up message box.
    Thanks in advanced!

    Hi ,
    As far as I know, This is a default feature. and is not recommended to delete or deactivate this pop up. 
    This is a feature of office and there is a dll called owssupp.dll which is responsible for getting the popup to open.
    You can go to IE tools> addon settings and deactivate the above dll (sharepoint open document class). But if you do so, then the other office office files which are word/excel/pptx etc.. would aslo gets affected and they also wont get the popup.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to show a field value and a message text in a message box

    Hi
    I have made a message box that shows the value of a text field when a button is clicked. I would like to add some message text to the message box as well, so that my message box will show something like:
    You have entered this data: "textField value"
    This script works to show the text field value but I cannot figure out how to combine it with an ordinary message box text message. I have tried various combinations of () and “ “ but no luck.
    if 
    (TextField1.rawValue != null){
    xfa.host.messageBox(TextField1.rawValue
    , "Message box title");}
    Kirstine

    you can use below code:xfa.host.messageBox("Word  you want to add in start "+TextField1.rawValue
    +" Word you want to add in the end","Message Box Title")
    Thanks
