Book resources for ApEx

I'm a database developer who has played around some w/ ApEx and
who has zero experience w/ HTML. Our group is looking into moving
a somewhat complex Forms app to ApEx, and I know I'll need to
be doing more than just the basics in ApEx.
I've found this forum very helpful, but want to get some good books
in front of me.
Couple of questions:
What books do you recommend for ApEx?
Would it be wise for me to get an HTML book? If so,
I'd love recommendations.
When is the book Pro Oracle Application Express (Scott S and John S's
book) actually going to be available? The date keeps getting
pushed back! Because of Scott's incredible knowledge of ApEx,
this is the book I really want... but don't know if it'll be available
in time!
Thanks much,
Carol

Carol,
I'm sitting in the airport right now waiting to fly out to ODTUG, so don't have time for a 'full' reply to this, but if you want to drop me a mail ([email protected]) I'll see what I can do for you (no promises of course).
The date keeps getting pushed back! I know ;) Guilty as charged...but it is coming I promise.
Because of Scott's incredible knowledge of ApEx, this is the book I really wantNot sure if you mean Scott S or me (or a combination of both!), if it's me then I'm thinking of changing my name, as it'll be the third time this week someone has called me 'Scott' (and about the 1,000,000th time this year ;).
Thanks,
John.

  • HELP! What's the best book/resource for learning more complex interactions in EdgeAnimate?

    Hi there,
    I'm completely new to the world of HTML5/javascript etc and I'm looking for a book/person that will teach me (in a comprehensive, 'from the ground up' kind of way) how to apply these sorts of interactions.
    1: Drag a symbol and 'throw' it so that the object continues moving at the velocity of finger swipe after the user removes their hand from the screen, slowly decreasing with a pre defined 'inertia' variable.
    2: Drag a symbol away from its initial location so that it 'springs' back to it's initial starting point.
    3: 'Hit test' principles so that if the user had 'thrown' a symbol I could detect if it had collided with a 'floor' or 'wall' and it would then bounce or would affect the inertia.
    4: Smooth drag and drop so that the symbol you are 'carrying' is subjected to a easing formula that makes the motion smoother and less erratic than whan just dragging the actual object directly.
    5: Drag and drop in a constrained arc with the symbol rotating back to it's original point as if it were a pendulum. So, the higher you initially drag the item, the faster it would swing back, initially overshooting it's original point, until an inertia variable would eventually mean it would settle at it's origin.
    I've seen a few books about EDGE in general, but they seem to be more about how to use the drawing tools and perform basic interactions (on click stop at frame whatever etc).
    I guess I need a book on java script, but I'm very keen for something that can communicate how to do these things directly within edge (so wether you enter the code on frame update or touch start etc)
    If anybody out there knows of a useful resource to achieve these kind of results I woudl be REALLY greatful. I know there are some posts on the forums that detail some of these things, but I need something that explains in a simple way how and why you do something so that I can properly grasp it.
    Cheers,
    Tom

    Hi there,
    Well, I've found a great blog post by a guy called Burak Kanber on how to use Hooke's law in javescript.
    http://burakkanber.com/blog/physics-in-javascript-car-suspension-part-1-spring-mass-damper /
    The principles all make sense to me and I can kind of see what's going on with the javescript (whan I say, 'kind of', I mean pretty vaguely) but I can't fathom out how to apply that javescript in Edge. Can anyone describe how to apply this code to Edge directly - ie. Where should I put each section of code to ensure that the drag actions work etc.?
    I don't need the canvas stuff as I'll be using graphic objects anyway.
    Any help would be massively apreciated!
    Thanks,
    Tom

  • What is the best book/resource for a GarageBand newbie?

    Hello all.
    I am just delving into garageband.  Love it.  So far I have been able to mic an acoustic and lay down a track while adding a few effects then putting a track of vocals on top.  My wife was impressed. 
    I know it is prety user friendly but I really want to know what does what in the software.  Do you recommend just reading the index included in the software (please no) or is there a book/video series you recommend to really give me in depth from beginner to advanced knowlege of the program?
    Thanks in advance.  I appreciate the insight.
    Matt

    This is a pretty good place to start http://www.macprovideo.com/tutorial/garageband-11-101

  • Cannot directly book a resource for this meeting after Exchange2007 to Exchange2013 migration

    Hi,
    I’ve migrated a customer from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013 successfully. However. There are troubles with booking resources. Users receive the following error message when booking a resource: Direct Booking – Cannot directly book a resource for this meeting.
    The user follows the following procedure:
    The user opens his/her ‘own agenda’, create a meeting, use Scheduling Assistant to schedule a meeting with another user and to add a Room. When hitting Send the above message appears.
    When the user has Full Control to the resource mailbox and the user opens the agenda of the resource directly and follows the above procedure in the ‘resource agenda’ he/she is able to book the resource without a problem (this workaround is not preferred
    as a final solution).
    To fix this, I’ve tried the following:
    Add a registry key to the client. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Outlook\Options\Calendar\EnableDirectBooking (0)
    Turn cache mode ON, this works.
    However for some users cache mode must be turned off, so this workaround doesn’t apply for all the users.
    I worked with Full Control permissions on the resource, so that the user is able to book directly from the ‘resource agenda’.
    Some more information:
    Public Folders are not in use anymore.
    There are several clients in the environment:
    Windows XP with Outlook 2007
    Windows 7 with Outlook 2007
    Windows 7 with Outlook 2010  (I do not have a confirmation if these symptoms also apply on these clients as well).
    Does anyone has a final solution for me?
    Or how can I troubleshoot this any further?
    Thanks in advance,
    Yuri

    Hi,
    According to your description, I understand that user cannot book room and return an error “Direct Booking – Cannot directly book a resource for this meeting” after move mailbox from Exchange 2007 to 2013.
    If I misunderstand you concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.
    I want to double confirm some points, please help to collect answers for below questions:
    1. Move mailbox within same forest or cross-forest?
    2. How about the OWA with problematic account?
    3. How about new a mailbox in Exchange 2013?
    If it works in OWA, please try to repair Outlook profile or re-create profile for testing.
    If not, please run below command to double check the permission of resource mailbox:
    Get-MailboxPermission room | select user,accesslight
    Get-MailboxFolderPermission “room:\calendar” | FL
    Additional, I find an similar thread about your question. For your reference:

  • Looking for resources for the Apple TV; books, web sites, ebooks, etc

    I love to get books or manuals or web sites to read about how my Apple product works, stuff like "The Missing Manual" series. I can't find such a resource for the Apple TV, which I just bought and really love.
    Does anyone know of such a resource?
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    here's a couple..

  • Setting up Snow Leopard Server with Address Book, iCal for Small Business

    Hello Folks,
    I have a small business with 2-3 people and I want to setup Snow Leopard Server on a Mac Mini. I have everything in place, RAID, Backup drive etc.
    What I need is a guide on how to setup the server correctly and how to setup Address Book Server, iCal Server, DNS, etc. I was in IT a long while back but have gone back to my creative roots and sworn off IT but I am in a situation where my IT guy's wife is pregnant so he is busy painting the baby's room, etc.
    I was looking at Snow Leopard Server for Dummies and a few other books. Do you guys have any suggestions on resources for me to read or research that would give me very straightforward steps in getting this setup. I am at a point where I can re-install from scratch if needed.
    For the ease of those that might respond let's assume I know my way around Mac and general networking as a whole.
    Thanks in advance for any advice.
    Cheers,
    Jason

    Hi Guys,
    First of, I will give you a brief background on me regarding networking as a mac user since 1994. I can setup and network multiple macs without a server in our home and small office. Turning file, print and internet sharing with a regular Mac OS X client version at no problem at all. This would be my first time setting up a Mac OS X Snow Leopard Server.
    I'm in the same boat as Jakekub but we do not have a static IP from our DSL provider. We just bought a Mac Mini Server for our small office with 3 iMacs and 1 MacBook. We will just use the server for internal usage and to centralized things out and use some of server's features like Address Book, Mail, iCal etc. I've search the forums and found Orhidy's post here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2148553
    I even followed the sample IP Address, Subnet Mask, Router, DNS Server and I think I had it correctly setup initially. And I think I got it all running on the basic setup base on his instructions. So I tried to test my DNS settings via Terminal > hostname then got answer as
    servername.companyname.private
    And double checking DNS again with a command: sudo changeip - checkhostname and was given an answer of:
    Primary address = 192.168.1.192
    Current Hostname = servername.companyname.private
    DNS Hostname = servername.companyname.private
    The names match. There is nothing to change
    dirserv:success = "success"
    But here's another one that bugs me. I tried to follow from "Mac OS X Snow Leopard for Dummies" the command line:
    NSLOOKUP hostname
    and got an answer of:
    ;; Got SERVFAIL reply from 192.168.1.192, trying next server
    Server: 192.168.1.1
    Address: 192.168.1.1#53
    ** server can't find hostname: NXDOMAIN
    So does it mean that I still haven't configured my server properly?
    Thank you all for the help in advance!

  • What is the best resource for Discoverer novice.

    I need direction in this tool. what is the best resource for me to use.

    Hi Ade
    You could do a lot worse than get hold of a copy of the Oracle Discoverer 10g Handbook that I wrote. It will walk you through much of what you need to know. You can find it on amazon.com or via a link from my website: http://learndiscoverer.com/books/books.htm
    Another good resource would be a training class in either the Admin tool or End User tool or both. Oracle Corporation offer excellent training as do many other companies, including mine. Just google Discoverer Training.
    Further resources are the Oracle By Example series on the OTN forum. These are free. You will find the Discoverer lessons here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe_bi/discoverer/discoverer_1012/index.html
    Other resources, such as blogs, abound on the web too. Here are some:

  • Looking for APEX tutoring in NJ (with pay) - urgent -

    Hi,
    I'm a newbie to APEX. I can get a simple form up and running fine. But the project is more than a simple form. I have not got a chance to get training yet. I'm looking for an experienced APEX developer in NJ to tutor me with pay. I'm using APEX 3.2 with Oracle 11g database via Embedded PL/SQL Gateway (which probably is not so relevant). A brief description of the project is as follows:
    Login -> Home
    |
    V
    Form 1 -> Search, then display the items that were entered (maybe a dynamic display) based on the search criteria. Click on the item to faciliate "Update" or "Deactivate" (similar to "delete"). On the top of the page, there's a "Add" tab to facilitate insert.
    Form 2 -> ......
    Form 3 -> ......
    The same or similar logic for the other Forms (total about 10 Forms, with Reports added later). This is some of my rough concept, the overall application flow/wrapper can be discussed, if there's other alternative or I'm not on the right track.
    Please let me know PROMPTLY.
    Thanks much,
    Helen

    Why are you repeating a prior posting you made today (Looking for APEX tutoring (with pay) in NJ - urgent - Posting the same item more than once will cause headache and issues with the folks that frequent here..
    If you have a need for tutoring, as you have asked, you have been sent three viable solutions to follow (two different responders in the area willing to help for $$ and one response involving working through the tutorials on Oracles APEX page and buying one of the better APEX books.. I Would HIGHLY Recommend John E Scott's book, http://www.amazon.com/Oracle-Application-Express-Experts-Voice/dp/159059827X ..
    Keep the questions coming, folks here will help when they can..

  • Dreamweaver CS5 E-Commerce Book/Resources

    Hi,
    I have recently completed my Adobe Dreamweaver and Flash CS5 certificate but the course only covers the basics for an information based website. I would like to learn about databases i.e for logins etc where people can add their details to the database and it allows them to login. Also i would like to learn about online payments and adding a basket etc to my site to process products etc.
    I need a book/resource which i can use to learn how to make an e-commerce site, but have looked and cannot find a book for what i need.
    Can anybody recommend any books that are sold in the United Kingdom that i can use for learn how to do this in CS5 and that still follows the latest web standards i.e CSS etc.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Many Thanks

    As for your other question of "can" this be done (Credit Card Processing from EJB). I would never say anything can not be done. Explain your problem with more detail and I'm sure someone in this forum can lead you in the right direction.
    If reading that book does not help you figure out how to use ANT, then I would suggest taking a course from your local Java experts.

    Helen,
    First of all, welcome to the forums and the wonderful world of APEX development.
    Before recommending anything, it would be really good to know a little bit about your background and how comfortable you are with Oracle, SQL, and PL/SQL. If you're completely new to Oracle (i.e. you've been working with EXCEL and ACCESS), I would recommend a completely different path than someone who is coming at this from a long history of Oracle Forms development, and different again form someone that has Java or other Web development experiene.
    Can you help us out with some information about your programming background?
    In general, I agree with Don. The 2 Day developer and Advanced Tutorial white papers will give you a good start, by letting you peek under the covers of what is possible with Application Express. There are also a couple good books that might help depending on where you're coming from and what your skill level is.
    However, there is nothing like getting yourself into a learning environment that allows you to ask questions specific to what you're trying to achieve in the real world.
    The company I work for ( [Sumner Technologies|www.sumnertech.com] ) also provides APEX training at the beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. We can provide these classes in a public forum, as private on-site classes, or we also provide instructor lead online training classes as well. We have several classes scheduled through the end of the year so check [http://www.sumnertech.com/training|http://www.sumnertech.com/training] for a list of available courses and our public/Online schedule).
    What course best suits you will obviously depend on where you're starting from, but we can definitely help there.
    Feel free to give us a call at (703) 879-4615. We'll be happy to help.

    sSee: [http://www.oracle.com/education/certification] and drill down to these from Exams - list of exams. That gives recommended training and pre-requisites.
    Methinks 1z0-044 has never been begatted.
    For 1z0-046 maybe await [http://www.rampant-books.com/book_0902_managing_oracle_on_linux_OCE_oracle_certified_expert.htm] ... i've not seen it but seem reasonable.
    Otherwise you will need to attend the relevant oracle course source information from Oracle Online resources plus possibly 2 or 3 books. 1z0-046 is a bit too 32bit orientated for current OEL practice though; and its generally easier to go 64 bit and slam the ram nowadays.
