Audit Intersection fails from Web Form
We have an HFM 9.3.1 application successfully integrated with FDM 9.3.1, in that when navigating to a base level intersection, which has been loaded by FDM, the audit intersection option allows a drill-through analysis to the correct FDM application / location.
This feature works perfectly OK from right clicking a grid intersection and selecting Audit Intersection. However, if a web form is used to display the same intersection and the user selects Audit Intersection the following error message is generated :-
System Error "The signed on token is no longer valid" the web screen also displays an error stating there are localization errors and that the action is empty or missing.
Repeatedly performing the same operation from data grids and web forms results in the web form audit always failing and grid audit always succeeding.
Looking at the URL parameters I can see that the two sets of actions sent to generate the FDM audit page are indeed different
I have included the source "action" parameter from the IntersectionSummarybyLocation web page. (With line breaks to aid readability)

It would appear that the format for characters is different and the SSO_TOKEN is differrent (although this maybe by design since the calling locations are different).
I have checked that the Grid and Web Form operations are calling the same web page encoding of Unicode (UTF-8).
Anybody got any idea why FORM functionality is failing to display the Audit Intersection?
Kind regards
Colin

Applied Patches 9.3.1.1 thru to 9.3.1.4 (latest).
Problem resolved. Audit Intersections now work from both Grid and Forms.
Incidentally, both "Action" parameters from Grid and Form are now identical including the SSO_Token.

How to change/set the browser title from web forms (XP platform with SP2)
I am running Form9i, I have set the browser windows title from Web Forms dynamically by using following method. However, when my PC has changed to XP, the function seems not work. Does anybody have same problem and how to solve it? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Add the Javascript code to your baseHTML file. For example,
if you are using the basejini.htm:
<HEAD><TITLE>%pageTitle%</TITLE>
<script language="javascript1.2" type="text/javascript1.2">
function Change(a) { document.title=a; } </script>
</HEAD>
In web Forms , call the javascript function with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT built.
For Example the following code set the browser title with username . web.show_document('javascript:Change('||'"'|| get_application_property(USERNAME)||'"'||')','_self');
Best Regards,
BowieDear Frank,
Thanks for your reply. Can you tell me in detail which built-in function in Webutil can set value in browser title ?
Btw, is it possible for me to set parameter "separateFrame=True" in formsweb.cfg and set the form window title by using SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW,TITLE,v_msg_string)?
Best Regards,

Sending email from web forms (Forms 6i)
Does anyone know how to send email using Outlook from web forms? I can get it working with client server but not with web forms.
Thanks,
Darcea Klein
nullMany ways to send a email:
1. use Web.Show_Document(v_url, '_blank') to call a .asp or .php or .cgi page which can send email, attaching some message.
2. use utl_smtp built_in in Oracle 8i, you can save this procedure in database, then call this procedure in your web form.
PROCEDURE SEND_EMAIL (sender IN VARCHAR2,
recipient IN VARCHAR2,
message IN VARCHAR2)
IS
mailhost VARCHAR2(30) := 'smtp.aaaaa.com';
mail_conn utl_smtp.connection;
BEGIN
mail_conn := utl_smtp.open_connection(mailhost, 25);
utl_smtp.helo(mail_conn, mailhost);
utl_smtp.mail(mail_conn, sender);
utl_smtp.rcpt(mail_conn, recipient);
utl_smtp.data(mail_conn, message);
utl_smtp.quit(mail_conn);
-- Handle the error

How can I create a web form that will generate a pdf of everything in the form?
Jose,
i suggest you start with looking at the status of the report with id=14511 in the logs of the reportserver. You can find these from the Oracle Entreprise Manager by selecting the reportserver -link, than follow the failed/completed task-links.
If the report finished succesfully, Internet Explorer probably tried to show the report before it was finished. If this is the case, you can build a small timer that waits for the report to finish or that queries the report server if the report is finished before you trie to show the report.
Questions:
Can you show the report when you enter the url to the report manually in Internet Explorer?
Do you use Headstart? -
Question about data extraction from web forms
I am developing a simple web form in DreamWeaver MX for
increased accesibility for users who utilize screen reader
software, as navigating PDF forms is still currently very difficult
for most of the screen readers to navigate. I was wondering if
there is a way to take an .asp webform that a user fills out and
when they hit a print button it would extract the data from the
form and open an Adobe PDF form and populate the data they entered
into specific fields within the PDF form which would allow them to
print an official copy of the form they used the web version to
complete. Any insight into this possibility is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

Trigger workflow from web form
HI Experts,
I have a requirement to trigger workflow when a web form is completed through a portal and saved.I also need to perform certain validations on the fields in the web form before triggering the workflow.The web form would then go the proper approvers and then I need to send notification messages on Approval or Rejection.I am at loss of thoughts as to how I can achieve this functionality.
I also need to send reminders to the approver every 2 hours till he takes some action.
Any suggestions would be of great help and would be rewarded appropriately..
Regards,
NarsinghHi Narsingh,
the solution depends much on the web form you are implementing.
Is this a standard portal application you are working on? Or are you developing also the form from scratch?
The previous answers just tell how you can trigger a workflow if the application doesn't trigger it itself.
If the web form is a standard application or built with process frameworks like HCM Processes and Forms/ISR/PCR, then the event is often published by default without any customization.
No answers, just questions...
Kind regards,

Filling in PDF forms from web forms
I have acrobot pro, and can build PDF files. What I don't know how to do is build a web form that'll fill in PDFs, and then make a copy to the server, or email the pdf to the person who filled in the form.
What forum is the correct place to ask this question? I don't want to be irritating people by asking in the wrong place.This forum is fine, you just may want to provide more details. Acrobat's help has more information on creating forms, as do a number of tutorials at AcrobatUsers.com.
Submitting the entire PDF either to a web server or sending it by email is easy, but if it has to work with Reader, the form has to be Reader-enabled. You can do this in Acrobat, but there is a 500 form limit on the number of returned forms Iincluding hardcopies) that you can use data from if you distribute the document to more than 500 users. When you post a Reader-enabled document on a publicly accessible web site, you are effectively distributing it to an unlimited number or people.
An alternative is to set up the form to submit just the form data to a web server or send it via email. There are no licensing restrictions for this. The form data can then be later imported back into a blank form, stored in a database, or the data file archived.
Much of what you asked about does not involve Acrobat directly, but rather programming of the server to respond to a form submission. -
Clling a Compiled HTML HelpFile Topic from Web Form
Ben:
I'm a project manager on a development project in a client's Oracle environment. We want to deliver help files from the unix server when a user presses the F1 key or the ? button. The application runs on the server and users have access to it through web forms. In the new web-based application, we want to be able to access compiled HTML Help files (.chm) AND a specific topic in the file - a context sensitive approach. Our developers are using the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT call and the help file name to get just the help file, but we can't figure out how to call a specific topic in the file (topic ID's and numbers have been assigned to each topic and the file is compiled with the ID's in it). Do you have any way to do this? If so, can you provide a script that works?
Also, when the file is delivered, the users get the Open/Save dialog box prior to delivery. Have you ever heard of a way to supress this dialog programmatically so the user won't see the dialog? I have seen this work in the real world but have never been able to figure it out.
Thanks.
Eric Blythe ([email protected])Eric,
You are asking a Forms/Microsoft Help related question.
The Oracle Help Technologies Forum is intended to be a resource for OHJ (Oracle Help for Java) and OHW (Oracle Help for Web) product related issues. This forum is not intended for general help discussion.
Having said that, here is a blurb from the Ehelp (RoboHelp) help system:
"For context-sensitive Help to work properly, both the Help author and developer need to use the correct topic IDs in the same map files. This sounds fairly simple and straightforward except that the HTML Help engine requires a topic ID plus something known as a map number.
The topic ID is matched with its corresponding map number in the map file. The entire string (known as a map ID) looks something like this:
#define ID_PizzaDeliveryForm 101
Any number between 0 and 4294967294 is valid, but the same map number cannot be used more than once in a Help project."
For more info about Microsoft Help (HTML Help), visit the Microsoft site.
Btw, Forms provides you with the ability to programmatically supress messages. See the Forms help system for details.
Thanks,

I need to call an external application (on the user's PC) from web forms 6i
We do imaging here, and all our images are scanned to a novell fileserver that has a drive letter mapped to the user's PC.
These images are used for Oracle applications and other applications, and we only store the image's location path and file type in oracle.
e.g. image_path varchar2(100), image_type varchar2(3)
would be: 'w:\archive\ap\0127\ap12345', 'tif' where 'ap12345' is the image name.
The file is stored on the novell box without an extension, which has worked fine for us with our forms applications in client server.
Moving to web forms, I'm trying to reference the images via web using forms 6i triggers and web.show_document('file:///'||image_path) for the URL.
This finds the image, however, internet explorer doesn't know what to pull it up as without the extension, and if I try to put an extension on the file, the browser isn't able to identify it since it doesn't have an extension on the fileserver, so I'm in a catch 22. I'm unable to put an extension on the original copy of the file on the fileserver due to other applications that also need to reference it.
Also, I'm unable to go directly to the file on the novell server from my 9iAS webserver.
My question is:
Would it be possible to use javascript or some other means from inside the forms 6i trigger, or a database procedure that the forms trigger kicks off inside the Jinitiator JVM to go out to the client PC's file system, grab that file and copy it to a temporary location on the 9iAS webserver -OR- the client PC with the extension, and then reference it from there?
If so, how could I do that?The images are stored on an external novell server that I don't have any access to from my 9iAS server. I can find the novell box from the windows machines, but I have no direct means of "grabbing" that image ...
or so I thought.
I'm looking now as the Oracle FileUpload javabean utility that I can put within a form to let the user click on the view-image button, it will then kick off a procedure to grab the file from the user's mapped network drive, copy the file to the server with an extension and into the directory I want it, and let me then link to the copy of it with a web.show_document command ...
At least that's the theory. So far all I get is an ORA-105100 error and I've doublechecked and triple-checked my path and classpath settings everywhere the documentation and several notes says to check them. I've had oracle looking at it too, but so far, nada - still working on it though. -
Hi
How can i create a pdf from my webform which i have filled partially.
I need it to be emailed (with the data that are filled) so that i can download it and then complete the form later.
Also i need to create the pdf dynamically (number of fields in my webform changes depending on a particular selection).
The webform is created using perl.
Anybody please help me in this.
Thanks in advance.

RaheshHi,
I would like to make the process automatic. For that I have installed the LiveCycle ES trial version and started working on it. I tried to generate PDF from http://localhost:8080/adminui/secured/admin.faces, but the generated PDF was real mess. The genereated PDF didn't have the text boxes and the drop down as designed.
Now I doubt, if LiveCycle will help in meeting my requirements.
I can give you a brief about my requirements. Please go through and let me know if LiveCycle can help me with this.
I have a webform (say "http://mydomain.com/invoice.php") which contains input boxes for entering invoice number, customer code, customer name, address, country, state, city, Total Amount, Comments etc. Here country and state fields are dropdowns. When I enter a customer code, all the information related to the customer are populated in the respective fields in the web form. And some fields will be filled in manually. From this web form, I want to generate a PDF with the required data and then email it to our customers. Also I should be able to download the PDF file.
Also when the customer download the pdf, there should be the data which we have populated through our code. Also they must be able to edit certain fields and must not be able to edit other fields. After the process of updating the PDF file, the customer must be able to save the file with customer updates.
I want to know whether I would be able to accomplish this project through Livecycle?.
Awaiting your guidance.
Thanks

Disabling Name/Email from Web Form
Our client, who is a doctor, had us create a patient survey form. However, he would like it to be submitted anonymously, therefore I need to take the Name and Email off of the form. I know this is not possible within the web form options on the back end of the site.
Any tips?Hello Design054atAlphagraphics,
You would just give each input field a value so that the form does vailidate. Here is an example of how I would go about this:
http://jsfiddle.net/chaddidthis/FZnvW/1/
I removed the inputs from the table since they no longer have anything to do with the information I'm trying to collect and you don't need the labels any longer. And placing them in a div that is hidden so the user doesn't have to worry about them.
I hope this helps you.

We are trying to launch excel from a web form using the command WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT. We are not able to get the form to run excel on the client. Excel starts and runs on the server. Any ideas on how to make excel run on the client?
My mistake! I tried this and it works great. The URL looks like this:
Web.Show_Document('http://server/vdir/test.xls', '_blank');
This displays the test.xls document residing in the vdir virtual directory on the web server in a new browser window.
The trick would appear to be the need to do this through a web server such as IIS, having the Excel file resident in a virtual directory to which you can refer. Also, this copies the file down to the client machine, so any edits go into the copy, not the original spreadsheet.
Does anyone know whether it is possible to show the file on the server instead of a copy? I tried file://, but that couldn't display the file (page not found, presumably due to access restrictions?). -
How to get server hostname and port from web form
Hi All,
I need to find out server hostname and port number
from 9i form.
That is if the form was called via:
http://myserver.com:1234/f90servlet?form=test,
i would like to call some
GET_XXX_PROPERTY(SERVER_HOSTNAME) that would return
myserver.com
and
GET_XXX_PROPERTY(SERVER_PORT) that would return
1234
or alternatively
GET_XXX_PROPERTY(SERVER_URL) that would return
complete URL, so that i can parse it myself.
Does anything like this exist? If not,would be
possible to get that information from any Java
function via java importer?

I'd add the code as a Java Bean in Forms and get this information from the Forms request URL.
Add the following bean to a Canvas and make it a size of 1x1 pixel so taht it appears hidden
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.net.URL;
import oracle.forms.handler.IHandler;
import oracle.forms.properties.ID;
import oracle.forms.ui.VBean;
public class FrmRequestInfo extends VBean
public static final ID pGetPort = ID.registerProperty("GET_PORT");
public static final ID pGetHost = ID.registerProperty("GET_HOST");
public static final ID pGetProtocol = ID.registerProperty("GET_PROTOCOL");
private String _host;
private String _port;
private String _protocol;
private URL FormsURL;
Applet m_applet;
/*Forms settings*/
IHandler m_handler;
public FrmRequestInfo()
public final void init (IHandler handler)
super.init(handler);
m_handler = handler;
// get the forms applet handler
m_applet = m_handler.getApplet();
// initialize cookie domain to the same domain that runs Forms
// Services
FormsURL = m_applet.getDocumentBase();
_host = FormsURL.getHost();
_port = new Integer(FormsURL.getPort()).toString();
_protocol = FormsURL.getProtocol();
public Object getProperty(ID p0)
if (p0 == pGetHost)
return _host;
else if (p0 == pGetPort)
return _port;
else if (p0 == pGetProtocol)
return _protocol;
else
return super.getProperty(p0);
To get the port number you call
VarcharVariable_Port := get_custom_property('beanblock.beanname',1,'GET_PORT');
for the hostname
VarcharVariable_Host:= get_custom_property('beanblock.beanname',1,'GET_HOST');

Ps.: just wrote the bean on the fly, without testing - but I am positive that it works as similar functionality works for me in other beans. -
Hi all,
I have a CFMX7 application where I would like to integrate
scanning of a local paper document into the client PC, have it
stored as a PDF or graphic file, and the file automatically
uploaded with the other data of a form. How can I have a web form
button kick off the scan in the first place? This would seem like
the province of an ActiveX control, but does anyone have any idea
how to do this, or know of any existing tools that enable it?
Thanks,

That is all fine and dandy for your and your users, but if
the
CAPABILITY existed in the browser so that you could do this
for your
users who want it and except the security risks, it would
exist for all
developers and all users of that browser. That means it would
be very
simple for unethical developers to use the capability to
steal
information for other users who DID NOT except the security
risk.
If IE had this functionality for you, then I could use it to
create a
website, trick you to visit that site and do nasty things
with your data.
NOW, I guess an activeX plugin that had to be installed would
mitigate
this somewhat, but it still is really stretching in my mind.
