Button from file upload item in wrong language

Hallo,
when i create a file upload item, the text from the search button is in wrong language.
The application primary language is en-us. And the ApEx language is en-us too.
Instead of "Durchsuchen..." I would like to have "Search..." as button text.
Can somebody help me?
Thank you in advance!
Kind regards
Michael87

Hello Michael,
>> I'm talking about the button which is part of the "File Browse" item.
In that case, you’re in troubles :)
The “Browse” button is not generated by APEX, and as such it’s not subject to the APEX translation mechanism (or application language). This button is generated by your browser, as part of the HTML <input type="file"> tag (http://www.w3schools.com/htmldom/dom_obj_fileupload.asp), which APEX uses to render its item, and its text and language are determined by the language of your Web browser.

Arie.

How to populate DB column with filename from file browse item?

Hi,
Using APEX 3.1.2, I'm trying to easily allow maintenance of a filename stored in a DB column (VARCHAR2(1000)). Using the column as a file browse item seemed to be the way to go, but of course I don't want the resulting file to be uploaded and it appears as though an existing filename is not shown in a form when the row is retrieved.
After much searching, I found Checking filename length in File Browse item before uploading , but I'm not able to connect the dots. I was thinking that I could create a hidden file browse item and use a button to call Javascript function to activate it, then save the resulting filename to my DB column item and wipe out the hidden item before it was uploaded. But the hidden item doesn't appear, so I'm not able to reference it's form input name.
Hopefully this mess makes sense. Anyone?
Thanks!
Rich

Hi John,
From what I can tell, the path of a local file browsed from a file browse item cannot be retrieved because of security concerns. Although, it seems that while Firefox 3 only returns the filename sans directory, IE6 returns the full path:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en" dir="ltr">
<head><title>Form Test</title>
</head><body>
<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
function GetDirectory()
strFile = document.FileForm.filename.value;
intPos = strFile.lastIndexOf("\\");
strDirectory = strFile.substring(0, intPos);
alert(strDirectory);
document.FileForm.Directory.value = strDirectory;
</script>
<form id="FileForm" name="FileForm">
<input type="file" id="filename" name="filename" value="" onChange="GetDirectory(this.value)">
<input type="hidden" id="Directory" name="Directory" value="">
</form>
</body>
</html>
This Win-specific code displays the path via IE6, but not in Firefox 3. Then again, I can't seem to preview posts here using FF3, either...

Weird problem while Extracting File path from file Browser item

Hi all
I followed some tutorials on this forum to get the absolute filepath from the filebrowser item and storing it in the database.
Heres what I did. I created a script in the header of the page which reads like this:
<script language="JavaScript1.1" type="text/javascript">
function SaveFullName(filepath,feed)
function getVal(item)
if(document.getElementById(item).value != "")
return document.getElementById(item).value;
else
return "";
document.getElementById(filepath).VALUE = getVal(feed);
alert(document.getElementById(filepath).VALUE);
</script>
I have call this function by this syntax which I have put in the onchange event handler of the file browser item.
onChange="javascript:SaveFullName('CCDPATH','CCDFILEBROWSER');"
Here CCDPATH is the name of the hidden item which I use to store the path and CCDFILEBROWSER is the name of the filebrowser in question.
now the last statement of the script above, alert(), gives me an alert with the proper value. The problem is when I am trying to store the value of this variable CCDPATH in my database with an onsubmit process, NULL values are getting inserted :-(
When I checked out in the debug mode, I can see that the value of this hidden item, CCDPATH is showing as "" , i.e; null. Why is this happening is out of my understanding.
I mean, with the javascript, it is assigning and displaying its value perfectly, but when I try to store it with PLSQL, it simply does'nt happen.
What am I possible doing wrong? What should I do to store the value of this hidden item in the database ??

Any thoughts people?

Unable to get the filename from file upload UI element

Hi,
I added a FileUpload UI element.
I created an attribute of type resource , assigned to the resource property of the file upload element.
I created an action button called upload and added the following code.
try {
       IWDResource resource = wdContext.currentContextElement().getFileupload();
      } catch (Exception e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
when I debug to see the value of resource it is null.
Please let me know where I am going wrong.

Hi,
Check if there are any space characters in your uploading path (file path).
First try to upload a file without any space characters in the uploading path(file path). If the problem is with the space characters then use the below encoding & decoding to resolve that issue.
Encoding while uploading the file:
// Getting the file resource
IWDResource resource = element.getCtx_va_FileResource();
//Getting the resource name
String resourceName = resource.getResourceName();
//Encoding the resource name
String encoderesourceName = java.net.URLEncoder.encode(resourceName,"UTF-8");
Again while downloading you can use decoder.
Hope this helps to resolve your issue.
See this below link.
Re: File Upload Problem
Try this encoding even if there are no space characters.

Charan

Removal of TABS from File Upload

Hi all,
I made an upload of a local file with TAB spaces in an internal table .I am required to remove the TABs from the records.I tried to used command REPLACE '/h' by single space, where '/h' being the TAB , but it did not work.
How can I achieve the requirement?
Your ideas are appreciated
Thanks,

first you wil call GUI_UPLOAD in normal way.
<b>if you are in UNICODE system,</b>
CLASS CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES DEFINITION LOAD.
CONSTANTS: X_DELIM TYPE C VALUE CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
this X_DELIM is to store HORIZANTAL TAB value.
<b>if you are in a NON UNICODE SYSTEM,</b>
you can use,
data X_DELIM type x value '09'.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
    EXPORTING
      FILENAME                = V_FNAME
      FILETYPE                = 'ASC'

    EXIT.
ENDIF.
*--Delete any Empty lines in the input file,if any
DELETE IT_READFILE WHERE LINE IS INITIAL.

    APPEND X_INPUTFILE TO IT_INPUTFILE.
    CLEAR X_INPUTFILE.
ENDLOOP.
HERE IT_INPUTFILE IS the internal table with your fields.
IT_READFILE IS a character type internal table
data : BEGIN OF IT_READFILE occurs 0,
          LINE(1000) TYPE C,
        END OF IT_READFILE.
or you can put HAS_FIELD_SEPERATOR = 'X' in calling the above function module.

WEB trigger Button from Template include item from another Button

Hello experts,
on a web template we want only one button to
a) execute a template specific planning function (with a fix variable value) and
b) trigger a template included button (same button is used for several web templates and therefore saved in an individual Web Template, which then is included in the other web templates.)
This way the rather complicated logic of button b) only needs to be maintained once
How can a button a) on the individual web templates trigger the button b) ?
In Workbooks it´s easy by enhancing the VBA code of the Button - but how do you do this in Web templates?
Thank you for your help,
Angie

Hi Angie,
two possible solutions:
1) Backend: Combine the logic of buttons a) and b) in a planning sequence
2) Frondend: Use JavaScript to create your own logic for the button:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/efc07b13f2025be10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm
Instead of putting the complex logic for directly on the button (b), embed is as JavaScript in the reusable template. Then you can call it also from other templates.

I cannot upload photos from file upload window anymore

When trying to select photos to upload to blog or attach to emails it shows the photos icon in the list on the left along with music, films etc, but when I click on it it shows only the iPhoto icon and will not let me select individual photos. It tells me to select iPhoto to show the pictures in the library but it will not click through and only lets me select the whole library to attach to blog or email. This has been getting worse for a while and I often had to click into usic or films and then back to photos to get the library to show but now it will not show up the contents at all. When I open iPjoto all is normal.

As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

File Browse Item translation

Hello all,
I would like to ask if is possible to translate the "Browse..." button of File Browse item.
For me it seems that the button cannot be translated to a different language. I have tried to export the XLIFF and there is no string like "Browse...", also I have tried to edit it manually in translation repository, but the string is not present here.
Any ideas?

I think it is decided by the browser itself according to the browser lang

Javascript multiple file upload with progressbar does not work in firefox, please help

I want to upload files using this javascript snipped as well as processing non file fields on the same form. This works beautiful in IE11, Chrome and Opera, but not in firefox (version 34).
I fired the non file handler with the action attribute on the <form> like this:
<form id="upload_form" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST" action="nonFile.php">
and the javascript with:
<input name="submit" type="submit" style="background: green" value="Submit" onclick="return uploadFiles()"/>
When I change type="button" the file uploads work in FF but the I have no control over the non file fileds.
Can someone gives me an indication of what is wrong?
oXHR.upload.addEventListener("progress", function(e){
var percent=(e.loaded/e.total) * 100;
_(idProg).value = Math.round(percent);
_(idstat).innerHTML = filename.name + " "+Math.round(percent)+"% --- Please Wait";
}, false);
// Upload finish, show the size of the file in Bytes, KBytes or MBytes
oXHR.onreadystatechange = function(){

How to get full path in file browse item

Hi
I have a file item. When I submit the form and store and value in db, then the file path is stored as numbers and appended to the file name. I undestand that this is because of some wwv flow files index or something . How to get the file path? Anybody...

For security/privacy reasons recent versions of browsers by default do not send local file path information from File Browse items to the server, nor expose the file path in the control's JavaScript methods. Firefox, Safari and Chrome only provide the filename. IE6 & IE7 still yield the path in Windows format. IE8 and Opera have adopted an irritating approach of replacing the path with a wholly imaginary "C:\fakepath\".
Changes to IE's security config can enable the path to be exposed in IE8, but I don't think it will be available via <tt>apex_application_files</tt>.

Changing a G/L account code from B/S item to P/L item

Hi Experts,
I created a G/L account code as a Profit & Loss item. After that some document transactions were posted in that G/L Account code.
Later, I realized that that G/L account should have been a Balance Sheet item. So, when in FS00, I tried to change the radio button from P/L item to B/S item for the above stated G/L account code, it is not allowing because there are transactions / records in that G/L account code.
What should I do to convert that G/L account code from P/L item to B/S item. Please guide.
I will definitely award points to everybody who answers.
Thanks & Regards

Hi Rajeev,
It is a big thing to change a GL account from BS to P&L.
First tip is, if you can avoid it please do, by this I mean, block the account and create a new GL account.
Please review your account groups, you normally group similar accounts in the same number ranges and I would recommend that a single account group is only BS or P&L.
The fact you have posted items to the GL account is the biggest problem.
You need to have the account with a zero balance, this will mean either reversing the documents you posted or creating a journal to zero the account and then clear if possible all of the line items.
You also need to consider the impact it has made on the documents you have created, especially if a period is closed.
I think it is possible to change if there are no open items, but I would contact SAP via OSS to get the answer.
Please publish the answer back on the forum.
