Button action bypass validation without using Immediate=true

I have a Form in a page, and a "Query" button to popup a dialog for user to search some information, and help user to fill-in some fields.
I want the "Query" button to ignoral all the validations in the Form (e.g.: required fields). I tried to set the Immedate for the button, but I found I cannot set any inputText value inside ReturnListener event-handler with Immedate is true.
Is there anyway to have a button to action, and bypass all the validation without using Immediate=true?
Thanks,
Samson Fu

Hi,
if you are on JDeveloper 11g, have a look at the skipValidation property on the ADF binding and read: http://oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/tips/fnimphius/ppr_subform/index.html
You can implement a similar approach

Is it possible to submit and bypass validation without Immediate = true?

I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.0.
On our form, we have a "Save" button that properly persists the binding data so that the user can come back and finish filling out the task that they are on later. For this to function properly, the save button needs to have the information on the form to be submitted. If we have no validation, and we have no required fields set, this function works properly. However, if we have any required fields that have not been filled out, the save action is not able to occur until the valiation errors have been corrected.
We have tried changing it so that the save button has "immediate=true" set, however that causes the form data not to be submitted and thus, not persisted.
We have also tried "immediate=true" and setting the form fields to "autoSubmitt=true", but this causes issues when we later have to clear out the data in an inputDate field. In this instance, we receive an illegal argument exception stating that the timestamp must be in format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss[.ffffffff]. We only see this error when "autoSubmit" is set to true on the field however, as we then need to also ensure that the back end data is cleraed in addition to the field's value as otherwise the field's value never is cleared.
Is it possible to have a component submit without validation, and without being immediate? Or is this not possible?
(On a side note, we've also noticed that if there are components that are set to "immediate", they can throw validation errors when a our save button is pressed and set to immedate, though none of the other fields throw errors)
Thank you

Hi,
I understand you have a save as draft functionality. There is no way other than to use immediate=true (which doesn't work for you) or not using field validation at all to get this use case working. Also note that right now you deal with client side validation errors; when you submit the form, bypassing client side validation you will hit binding level validation, for which you need to set skip validation to true

Form validation without using dreamweaver

Is there a way to validate an email textfield in a form without using javascript. I would continue using javascript for the validation except people are getting around the validation by disabling the javascript validation that dreamweaver cs4 supplies.

You can validate your HTML at this link:
<http://validator.w3.org/>
And your CSS at this link:
<http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/>
Does this answer your question?

To get the button on system form without using ADDON

Hello,
I want to get the new button on tne System Form without creating or using Add-on.
And while clicking on that button, i want to display "Hello World" message..
Can u please tell me how to get new button on the System form without using AddOn?
Thanks
Nisha

Hi Nisha,
It is not possible to add a button on a system form without using an add-on, this is because in order to add a button an a system form you have to access its form id at run time (that converts this standard form into a customized form for your add-on ) the location of some existing control that will be taken as the base location identifier for the new control and only then you would be able to add a new button on the form.

Form validation inspite of Immediate = true

I have a page with a selectInputText that is supposed to launch a popup dialog.
Problem is that before launching the dialog, it validates the form even though Immediate is set to true.

User,
Can you be more specific? Are you getting JavaScript pop-up dialogs about required fields? If so, you would need to mark the required property of those objects as false to avoid the JavaScript validation of required fields.
You can still leave the fields as required in the model layer, which is the validation you are skipping by using the immediate property.

Is there any other way to use a Batch Action Save as Without Using Override "Save As"

The problem im having is, Ive made a Action which uses the save option several times though the action. When i try to run a batch action it just overrides the last file. When I check the Override Button the action does not work becuase i used save in my action in ealier steps. The action works perfect with one picture when doing it manually but it would take forever to do 1500 pictures manually. Any help would be great.
Im trying to find a way to run the batch file and have it save as a diffrent file name each time.
Thanks for the Help In Advance

Hi, guys, I need a little bit help here please. Here is the problem:
I bought my N95 from ebay 1 month ago. It was locked on Vodafone at the time of purchase and the seller sold it because he didn't like it. Once it arrived, I unlocked the phone from a local shop. And I use my Vodafone Pay Monthly SIM card on it.
Everything worked fine till yesterday when the phone suddenly lost the network signal (meaning that I can't make or receive calls). So I took out the card and installed it on my old Nokia 6300 which works fine. At that point of time, I thought that the seller, whom I bought the item from, might have report the N95 mobile stolen. However, strangely, I tried my N95 with my friend's 3 SIM card and it works (meaning I can make or receive calls with my N95 on 3).
I have no idea about UK's stolen mobile regulations. If a mobile is reported as stolen, is it unusable only to a certain network or for the whole UK's networks? Thanks a lot.
Why do you have to buy stolen phones :-?.E-bay is notorious place for buying stolen & spurious goods. It is against law to own a stolen phone

Problem with immediate="true" used with inputText

Hi everybody,
I have two component, A and B, of type inpuText. When A is updated, I want B to be updated according to the value provided in A.
I have to use immediate=True + context.renderResponse because I'm using some converters and validators because I want to avoid error messages being displayed at that point.
I'm using partialtrigger to tell B to refresh himself when A changes it's value.
This doesn't work.
If I'm using the same code, but with ouputText instead, everything works!
the code looks like this:
<af:inputText id="A" styleClass="normalInputText"
label="A" simple="true"
value="#{controller.formBean.A}"
valueChangeListener="#{controller.updateB}"
autoSubmit="true" immediate="false"/>
<af:inputText id="netAmount" styleClass="normalInputText"
label="B" simple="true"
value="#{controller.formBean.B}"
partialTriggers="A">
public void updateGrossPriceDependentFields(ValueChangeEvent event)
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
formBean.setA((Long)event.getNewValue());
if(formBean.getA().intValue() == 0)
formBean.setB(new Long(222));
else
formBean.setB(new Long(0));
context.renderResponse();
Any ideas?

Hi ,
Just Try with this instead of context.renderResponse();
Context.addPartialTarget(ComponantNAME);
So that it will get refreshed

ActionListener for commandButton not being called after Immediate='true"

I have a form with multiple Boolean buttons. The inputText under these fields need to be validated. I am using
<af:selectBooleanRadio
group="OMSHostType" id="radio1"
text="#{ad4jRscBundle.SAMEHOST} "
autoSubmit="true" immediate="true"
valueChangeListener="#{viewScope.emas_view_ad4jMngrDeploy_Ad4jMngrDeployHomeView.setSameHost}"
shortDesc="#{ad4jRscBundle.SAMEHOSTHELPTEXT}"
selected="#{viewScope.emas_pagemodel_ad4jMngrDeploy_Ad4jMngrDeployHomePageModel.sameHost}"/>
I am using an explicit valueChangeListener to update the radio button values. I have multiple such radio buttons and each field have some exclusively mandatory attributes.
My CommandButton Deploy has stopped calling the actionListener after i made the above changes.It calls the listener if I set immediate="true" in the commandButton also but that bypasses the validation phase, a result which is not desired.
<af:commandButton id="submitCommandButton1"
text="#{ad4jRscBundle.DEPLOY}"
partialSubmit="true"
immediate="true"
action="goto_deployProgress"
actionListener="#{viewScope.emas_view_ad4jMngrDeploy_Ad4jMngrDeployHomeView.submit_Ad4jMngrJob}"
/>
Any idea why immediate attribute is capable of changing the commandButton's properties?

Hi,
without setting immediate=true, the command button action listener executes in teh InvokeApplication phase. Setting it to true invikes it in the earier ApplyRequestValue phase. Buttons that have immediate=true set skip all model updates and validation and instead directly render the response. My suggestion is to set immedatiate=false on the selectBooleanRadio - or is there are reason why you want to have this executing early in teh lifecycle?

How to save the session states for a tabular form WITHOUT using check boxs?

Greeting guys,
As you know that we can use collections to save the session states of a tabular forms, described in the how-to doc of manual tabular forms. However, what I am trying to do ( or have to do) is to provide a manual tabular form, and save the session states for validation, without using the check boxes. Because a user can put contents into some columns in a row without checking the corresponding checkbox, according to the requirements. So basically what I tried is to loop over all the rows and save Every entry into a collection. However, sometimes I got "no data found" error with unknown reasons.
My current solution is to use the "dirty" Retry button that gets back the history, which IMO is not a good workabout. So, I'd appreciate if somebody can shed some light on a better solution, especially if it is close to the one in that how-to doc.
Thanks in advance.
Luc

The following is the first collection solutin I've tried:
htmldb_collection.create_or_truncate_collection('TEMP_TABLE');
for i in 1..p_row_num loop -- Loop on the whole form rows
if (htmldb_application.g_f01(i) is not null) or (htmldb_application.g_f05(i) <> 0)
--If either of them has some input values, the row should be saved into the colleciton.
then
htmldb_collection.add_member(
p_collection_name => 'TEMP_TABLE',
p_c001 => htmldb_application.g_f01(i),
p_c002 => htmldb_application.g_f03(i),
p_c003 => htmldb_application.g_f04(i),
p_c004 => htmldb_application.g_f05(i),
p_c005 => htmldb_application.g_f06(i),
p_c006 => htmldb_application.g_f08(i)
end if;
end loop;
Some of columns have null values, but I don't think that's the reason. Because once I clicked all the check boxes, there would be no error no matter what values were in other columns.
Another issue would be extract the values FROM the collection, which has been tried because I had problem to store the data into the collection. I used "decode" functions inside the SQL to build the tabular form. I am not sure whether it will be the same as a regular SQL for a tabular form, like the example in the How-to doc.
Also I didn't use the checksum, for it is not an issue at the current stage. I am not sure whether that's the reason which caused the NO DATA FOUND error.

Popup cache with button has property immediate="true"

Strange behaviour on delete button with immediate=true

Hi, I'm using JDev11.1.1.2
I have dragged a view object as a editable form on the page.I added navigation + delete/create buttons.
As I see it all delete buttons should be immediate=true, because I want the user to be able to delete the current row despite validation errors (or maybe this is achievable some other way ? )
But now when I press the delete button, only the readonly fields are updated with next record in the iterator, but the input fields are not updated (they remain with the delete row's values).
If I set disable=true to an inputField, then it gets updated with the next row's value.
I tried with partialTriggers on the inputFields to the delete button - but no luck!
Why I get this different behaviour on inputFields and outputText when the delete button is immediate=true?
And how to deal with this problem?
Thank you!

Thank Frank for the answer, but still no luck
Here is my code:
<af:form id="f1" partialTriggers="cb6">
     <af:panelFormLayout id="pfl1" partialTriggers="cb6">
       <af:inputText value="#{bindings.Kod4.inputValue}"
                         required="true"
                         id="it1" partialTriggers="cb6">
     </af:inputText>
     <af:outputText value="#{bindings.Kod4.inputValue}" id="out1"/>
     <af:commandButton actionListener="#{bindings.Delete.execute}"
                           text="Delete" immediate="true" partialSubmit="true"
                           id="cb6"/>
     </af:panelFormLayout>
</af:form>As you can see there are one output and one input field for a same attribute ... the output field gets updated on delete, but the input - doesn't
There are partialTriggers and partialSubmit but still no luck
My view is really a simple one - 3 fields, based on an entity. Tried with different view objects - still the same effect occurs.
I don't see how a delete button can be of any help to the user if it is NOT immediate=true. I cannot add a row and delete it right away if there are validation errors
Please help!
Thanks

Command link / button action is not taking place if i use it in iterator.

Hi,
I am new to ADF, i am facing 1 issue while implementing ADF mobile browser application.
Issue: command link / button action is not taking place if i use it in iterator. its just refreshing the page it self and displaying as no records.
Scenario is i am populating the search results in results page from search page using iterator, i want to get the complete details in different page (results page -> details page) .
I have tried in different ways.like
case1:
<tr:panelGroupLayout id="pgl2" layout="vertical" styleClass="af_m_panelBase">
<tr:panelHeader text="#{classviewBundle.SEARCH_RESULTS}" id="ph1"/>
<tr:iterator id="i1" value="#{bindings.SubjectVO1.collectionModel}" var="subject"
varStatus="subIndx" rows="100">
<tr:panelBox text="#{subject.Subject} #{subject.CatalogNbr} - #{subject.CourseTitleLong}"
styleClass="af_m_listingPrimaryDetails" id="pb1">
<f:facet name="toolbar"/>
<tr:table var="ssrClass" rowBandingInterval="1" id="t1" value="#{subject.children}"
varStatus="clsIndx" rowSelection="none"
binding="#{SessionBean.subjectTable}" verticalGridVisible="true"
emptyText="No Records" width="100%">
<tr:column id="c9" sortable="false" styleClass="width:100%">
<*tr:commandLink text="Section: #{ssrClass.ClassSection}-#{ssrClass.SsrComponentLovDescr} (#{ssrClass.ClassNbr})"*
id="commandLink2" styleClass="af_m_listingLink"
*action="#{pageFlowScope.BackingBean.searchaction}"></tr:commandLink>*
//remaining code
in this case commandlink action is not able to invoke serachaction() method
case 2:
<tr:commandLink text="Section: #{ssrClass.ClassSection}-#{ssrClass.SsrComponentLovDescr} (#{ssrClass.ClassNbr})"
id="commandLink2" styleClass="af_m_listingLink"
action="classdetails}"></tr:commandLink>
in this case its not able to navigate to classdetails page.
I gave correct navigation cases and rules in taskflow,but its working fine when the command link is out of iterator only.
i tried with actionlistener too.. but no use.. please help me out of this problem .
*Update to issue:*
The actual issue is when i use command link/button in an table/iterator whose parent tag is another iterator then the action is not taking place.
the structer of my code is
< iterator1>
#command link action1
< iterator2>
#command link action2
</ iterator2>
< /iterator1>
#command link action1 is working but "#command link action2" is not...
Thanks

Hi,
To solve my problem I used a af:foreach instead.
<af:forEach items="#{viewScope.DataBySubjectServiceBean.toArray}" var="text">
<af:commandLink text="#{text.IndTextEn}" action="indicator-selected" id="cl1">
<af:setActionListener from="#{text.IndCode}" to="#{pageFlowScope.IndicatorCodeParam}" />
</af:commandLink>
</af:forEach>
By the way you need to convert the iterator to an Array using a ManagedBean.
public Object[] toArray() {
CollectionModel cm = (CollectionModel) getEL("#{bindings.TView1.collectionModel}");
indicators = new Object[cm.getRowCount()];
for(int i=0;i<cm.getRowCount();i++){
indicators[i] = cm.getRowData(i);
return indicators;
public static Object getEL(String expr) {
FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
return fc.getApplication().evaluateExpressionGet(fc,expr,Object.class);
Hope that helps-

Hi Nutan,
if I understand you, then you have a simple validation. Therefore you can use the validation functionality of VC for your components. An alternative could be by writing a new ABAP RFC function module like:
BAPI Input parameters as input and BAPI output parameters as output and an additional return code or string for a message:
IF I_FIELD IS INITIAL.
E_RETURN_CODE = "THE FIELD IS EMPTY."
ELSE.
CALL FUNCTION <YOUR_BAPI>
<BAPI PARAMETERS>
ENDIF.
I hope that helps.
Best Regards,
Marcel
