Calling Apex Page

Hi friends,
I have integrated APEX with ebis - R12 with the help of Rod Document and now i can redirect to the APEX page from the ebiz menu. Now whether it is possible to call the APEX page from the workflow notification.
As now the APEX is within Ebiz. Whether now it is possible to call the APEX page (via) Workflow notification.
As anyone done this before.
Brgds,
Mini

Hi Andrew,
have you other self defined html input tags in your form? When you look into the Apache log file you will probably notice that mod_plsql isn't able to map this field names to parameters of the F procedure.
BTW, have you already looked at the PayPal Packaged Application and the White paper which explains it? http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/packaged_apps/packaged_apps.html#PAYPAL

Calling Apex page from Oracle Forms

Hi,
I haven't managed to find a similar thread anywhere.
I would like to call an apex page from a form. The page is in an app that requires authetication.
I can able to open the page by using web.show_document but that only takes me to the login page.
How can I overpass the authentication by passing somehow the username and password?
Is there any similar or easier way to do what I am after?
Many thanks

Hi,
You could try the BRANCH_TO_PAGE_ACCEPT URL functionality. There are a few threads on this subject - for example: Re: authentication with credentials from another domain? I haven't used this myself, but if you do a search on the forum for this, you may find other threads that can help.

Calling APEX page in Rich Text Editor Content

In my application I am using the Rich Text Editor to allow users to enter a block of text that is rendered within a page. In some cases, they would like to link to other pages in the application from within that block. The problem I am having is figuring out how to use a relative URL (f?p) path and maintain the session ID. If I try to enter f?p=&APP_ID.:1:&APP_SESSION.as the link expression from within the editor, the resulting HTML comes out<a href="http://f?p=&APP_ALIAS.:home:&APP_SESSION.">Any ideas on how to do this such that the substitution strings get processed properly would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Here what you can do with substitution problem
Create procedure
create or replace PROCEDURE editor_url(p VARCHAR2)
AS
BEGIN
f (p => v('APP_ID') || ':' || p || ':' || v('APP_SESSION'));
END;
Create public synonym
CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM editor_url FOR your_schema.editor_url;
Grant execute on procedure for DAD user
GRANT EXECUTE ON editor_url TO APEX_PUBLIC_USER; -- OHS or APEX Listener in use
GRANT EXECUTE ON editor_url TO ANONYMOUS; -- EPG
Then in editor link url you enter
editor_url?p=1
That will then you then to page 1 and procedure handles app id and session substitution

Calling Apex Page from third party

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need to integrate Oracle Apex with third party application.
In the third party application, I have to create a link and on the click of the link have to open the APEX application page in another window.
Here the username and password needs to be sent through the link itself and user should not be asked to enter the login details.
Can anyone guide me how this can be achieved?
Regards,
Arvind

Hi Jonivdb,
Thanks for your reply. I think you have understood my problem. I am new in Apex and there is one link by which I can login into Apex.
The link which I used is to connect Apex from html page is using action as "http://site/pls/apex/wwv_flow.accept" with method type "post".
Now my problem is I have to pass username and password as hidden parameters. Client do not want to pass username and password in this format.
What they wanted is to encrypt it at there side and the wanted us to decrypt it. My problem is I do not have any idea How to customize "wv_flow.accept" method or URL.
Any help would be really useful.

Arvind

Global temporary table in PL/SQL called from APEX page

I have a global temporary table in a PL/SQL procedure that is called from an APEX page.
The global temp table is populated with data as the procedure runs and then at the end of the procedure I do a create_collection_from_query_b to populate a collection with the data from the temp table. (I do this b/c it is much faster than creating the collection and doing an add_member for each row.)
The problem is that there are no commits in my procedure but I cannot get the bulk insert to work unless I define the temp table as on commit preserve rows.
Can anyone shed any light on this issue.
Thanks,
Andrew

alamantia wrote:
My PL/SQL procedure is called from an after submit page process. Does that imply that there is a commit happening after that process is successful?Ultimately, yes.
If the process calls the PL/SQL procedure and the temp table is in the procedure, wouldn't the commit fire after all the PL/SQL code is complete which would be after the bulk insert from the temp table to my collection?Yes, but at any point in the procedure containing code like
:APEX_ITEM := ...or
select ... into :APEX_ITEM from ...or
my_procedure(p_in => ..., p_out => :APEX_ITEM, ...);or
apex_util.set_session_state(...);then APEX will commit whilst maintaining session state.
If you don't have any of these events in the procedure, then test to see if the commit is occurring in <tt>apex_collection.create_collection_from_query_b</tt> prior to creation of the collection.

A beginner question: How can I call an APEX page from outside

I want to mix APEX functionality and other enterprise tools.
Thus I wish to call by an URL an APEX page by transmitting the mandatory page argument and optionnal argument like an order number. I just couldn't found any information in the documentation about own argument in an URL
Any idea?

Call iexplore.exe from apex page

I have a requirement to have a link from my main application apex page to invoke a client windows os command 'iexplore.exe -noframemerging' (I think this ie option used to be -nomerge). The idea is, this will fire up a separate IE8 session in a separate browser session, thus partitioning it from any other IE sessions. I know in IE8 there is a 'New Session' menu option but we need a link that is more obvious/integrated within our application. Our idea is to "persuade" users to click this link in preference to 'New Tab' or 'New Window' option.
Now, my quandary is how to do this. Should I be calling a Java Applet from the page (via Javascript) but is this "sand boxed" and thus will not let me call an executable for security reasons ?
Obviously I would also like to cater for users running Firefox (which I presume could detect in javascript and pass the browser type into the applet).
Is this sane, Is there any other way ?
Any advice would be appreciated or has someone already been down this road and could give me some pointers or an example.
Thanks in anticipation.

Our corporate application already has calls to similar executables (ie MS Word, Excel) to do letter merges, document transfers etc using signed Java libs on the backend server. I suppose this requirement is different as I'm wanting to run an executable on the client pc. So, are we saying it is not possible to run an 'iexplore.exe' on the client PC (using a signed Java applet) ?

Depends on what is your precise requirement.
To include a complete page with its header , footer ,etc. you will perhaps have no choice other than using iFrame to display the page.
If you just want one of the regions from Page2 to be shown on Page1 then you have multiple options.
The simplest is to put the common region on Page 0 and include that region on both pages.

How do you fire a button click event on apex page from fancybox iframe that was created by page

I am trying to fire off the button click event from fancybox iframe. The apex page has a button that launches a fancybox iframe which is loaded with an APEX form. On close of that fancy box, I am trying to fire a click event on the parent page which will refresh a div with html that is created with plsql. The button on the page works as expected when clicked from the page. It will show a debug alert message to prove it was called and then load the div with the correct data. I am unable to fire off this button click from the fancybox iframe when it closes.
A couple of points:
I using Plug-in: Execute PL/SQL Code and Return Content ("PLUGIN_MULEDEV.SERVER_REGION_REFRESH") to place the create fancybox statement. It is used to populate a div using plsql.
The name of the button on the main page is P2020_REFRESH_SECTION_BUILDER_BTN.
The click dynamic action on the button is calling the plugin to replace the html in the div.
The data in the form in the fancybox is being saved to the database. On close of the fancybox box I want to refresh the div so the new record is included in the div html.
Can anyone help. Here is the fancybox code:
function customProcessOnReadyState4(){
    for (var i=0;i<11;i++){
      $( "#tabs"+i ).tabs();
      $("#createNewExerciseLink"+i).fancybox({
          ''width''         : ''60%'',
          ''height''        : ''70%'',
          ''autoScale''     : true,
          ''transitionIn'' : 200,
          ''transitionOut'' : 200,
          ''type''          : ''iframe'',
          ''onClosed''         : function() {
                                     window.parent.$(''#P2020_REFRESH_SECTION_BUILDER_BTN'').click();
Here are the dynamic actions assigned to the button:
5 - Execute JavaScript Code
alert("Starting refresh");
10 - Execute PL/SQL Code and Return Content [Plug-in]
begin
SCTUI.create_sct_tabs2(:P2020_CREATE_SECTION_LOV, '1');
end;

user setActionListener...
<af:setActionListener from="#{bindings.XXX.inputValue" to="#{backingbean.variable}"
              <af:inputText value="#{bindings.Email.inputValue}"
                            label="#{bindings.Email.hints.label}"
                            binding="#{backingBeanScope.backing_ShuttlePage.it2}"

How to call/show page(s) from different application

Hi All,
I'm working on couple of applications and some reports (about 30) are used in all applications. I need your advice on doing this efficiently.
Is it possible to
1) Create a separate application with all the reports.
2) Create a blank page with lists linking to all those reports on the same tab
Now, is it possible to call that page in a "reports" tab of each application without prompting for login and still have rest of the tabs visible while the user is using the reports?
Thanks in advance,
Asha

Asha,
you can create links to call pages from other applications without any problem, just take a look at the structure of APEX URL over here: http://www.oracle-and-apex.com/apex-url-format/
To avoid re-logins you could either disable security on your application (not recommended) or create a custom authentication scheme which takes logged in users from other applications as granted.

Peter

Call APEX from Oracle*Forms

My first APEX
I have "built" a APEX-Application to upload and download documents (APEX advanced tutorial).
It works as a stand-alone-solution.
Now I want to call this APEX-Form from Oracle*Forms (web.show_document(url))
I found that I can call a specific Apex-Page by application-id and page-Number.
But APEX still asks for Username/ Password. And I want to transfer some other parameters to apex.
The url I could hide. I also think about encryption/ time-stamp mechanism.
I think there should be a standard-mechanism.
But now I am in doubt: Is this possible at all?

hi Scott.
i actually developed a javabean to communicate with a mikrotik router and it works very nice on Oracle forms 10g !
but i need to develop an mobile interface for users , so i am using apex to accomplish this task, but i will need to call the javabean from apex.
thanks

JQuery dialog to display an apex page

I am well on the way to integrating Jquery into Apex.
What I would like to do is popup a modal JQuery dialog with the contents being a complete Apex page.
I have tried an iframe as the contents of the dialog and calling the page, but this doesn't seem to load or execute JS or CSS.
I have also tried the htmldb_Get method to get the page and populate the dialog, again this has the same problem as the above.
Does anybody have any ideas?
Thanks in Advance
Ian

Ian,
Did you also encounter the error: document.wwv_flow.submit is not a function?
Because a second page is loaded in the dialog all my page processes (called by a generated apex javascript submit) stopped working...
I am at a loss...
With regards,
Frank.

Documentation for exporting apex page to Word or PDF

Hi,
Do you know of any examples or documentation for exporting several regions on an APEX page to either a word doc or a pdf? I have tried using the report print functionality but it's not quite robust enough and I can only do one report.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
Best,
Forrest

Hi -
Not sure if I've understood your requirement but I'll guess that you have multiple reports or other items on a page and you want to generate 1 report with values from all regions...
If that's the case the approach I would take:
1) Configure either BI Publisher or Apache FOP printing.
2) Define a Report Query and Layout under shared components that pulls in all the data you require.
3) Call the new report from a button on the page.
You can find docs for all of this on apex.oracle.com, look for "Configure PDF Printing".
Good luck.

Calling a page process by clicking a link

I have an Apex report with multiple rows and a link column in. I'd like to be able to call a page process to do some work on the row with the clicked link... I also need to pass a couple of parameters somehow to the page process as it calls a procedure which requires the parameters to function correctly.
So -
When I click a link on a row.. perhaps a couple of hidden page items get set.
The page is then submitted and my process calls the procedure, using the values of the set items above as its parameters.
Control is submitted back to the original page.
So basically I'm trying to give a user the ability to carry out repetitive actions on each row.
My thought was to use a URL in the link and maybe Javascript.. or am I barking up the wrong tree and is there a better way rather than a link?
Thoughts?
Cheers
Ken

You have the right idea. JavaScript is the way to go. Assuming that the values that are being passed are part of that row of data, you can construct the call to a JavaScript process.
Create two hidden items on your page, make sure they are not protected.
say P1_CITY and P1_STATE
Say your query included city and state, define a column in the report as a link of target URL with the following url
javascript:myFunction('#CITY#', '#STATE#');
Then define a javascript function in the page HTML Header section
function myFunction(pCity, pState) {
$x_value('P1_CITY', pCity);
$x_value('P1_STATE', pState);
doSubmit('RUNPROC');
Then have a process on the page does what ever you want and that is conditional on the REQUEST = 'RUNPROC'
