Capture data from Change Password form

Hi All,
I am trying to capture an error in the "Change Password Form". This error gets generated because of a custom java API call I make in the form. I want to show the error on the "Change Password Results" page. I tried to set the error message as a request attribute, but it seems the attribute is lost somewhere during the transit to changePasswordResults.jsp. I even tried to get the request attribute from "Change Password Workflow", but that didn't work either.
Could anyone suggest me if we can set a variable/attribute/parameter from the "Change Password Form" so that I can use it in a later form/workflow/JSP?
Thanks

It's not very well documented but have a look at http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-5821/bvbih?l=en&a=view&q=baseContext in the section at the very bottom titled "Using the variables Attribute".
You can define a baseContext in your form that will allow you to get access to the workflow variables.
For example:
<Form name="My Form" baseContext='variables'>
<Field name=":variables.myworkflowvariable">
</Field>
</Form>

Capturing Data from forms before it is stored in the table

Hi...I would like to capture data from a form before the data is stored in the database. that is, i would like to access whatever data is entered into a field right after the user pushes the Insert button. I would like to do some processing on the data and then store it in the table along with the data from the other fields. Is it possible to access it through a bind variable or something? Please tell me how to go about it. Thanks

Hi,
You can make of the session variables to access the values. Every field in the form has a corresponding session variable with the name "A_<VARIABLE_NAME>". For example for deptno the session variable will be "A_DEPTNO"
Here is a sample.
declare
flightno number;
ticketno varchar2(30);
tdate date;
persons number;
blk varchar2(10) := 'DEFAULT';
begin
flightno := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_FLIGHT_NO');
ticketno := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_TICKET_NO');
tdate := p_session.get_value_as_date(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_TRAVEL_DATE');
persons := p_session.get_value_as_number(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_NOF_PERSONS');
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_FLIGHTNO',
p_value => to_char(NULL)
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_TICKETNO',
p_value => to_char(NULL)
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_TRAVEL_DATE',
p_value => to_char(NULL)
end;
In the above example the values of the variables are got into temporary variables and session variabels are set to null.
Thanks,

How to retrieve input data from a HTML form in the UTF-8 cha

I encountered the following problem with a JWeb Application:
I tried to write a JWeb-Application for OAS 4.0, that retrieves
input data from a HTML form and writes it into an Oracle
database.
All processing should be done in the UTF-8 character set.
The problem is, that the form data retrieved by getURLParameter
are always encoded in a non-unicode character set and I found no
way to change this.
Can anybody tell me what I should do to get the form data in the
UTF-8 character set?
null

Hi
Try set in the JWEB application's Java environment such
SYSTEM_PROPERTY: file.encoding=UTF8.

Display FirstName and Last Name on change password form

Hi,
I have to display FirstName and Last Name in change password form instead of DN of the user the below syntax is displaying complete DN.
resourceAccounts.currentResourceAccount[$(name)].accountDisplayName, would appreciate if anybody can guide me on this.
Thanks

Hi,
For anyone searching how to do this, I've modified the Change User Password Form to contain a user's first and last names. As the User view is not accessible from this form, I added the following:
      <Field name='fullname'>
        <Display class='Label'>
          <Property name='title' value='Full Name'/>
          <Property name='value'>
               <rule name='EndUserRuleLibrary:getRealName'>
                   <argument name='accountId' value='$(resourceAccounts.id)'/>
               </rule>
          </Property>
        </Display>
        <Disable>
          <or>
            <ref>answersVerified</ref>
            <isnull>
              <ref>resourceAccounts.id</ref>
            </isnull>
          </or>
        </Disable>
      </Field>      I'm not at all sure this is the best way of accomplishing this, but I couldn't find forum search results that would allow me to display additional user attributes on this form.
Hope it helps!
Nick.

Capturing data from a website

Hello,
I would like to capture data from websites, or get a snapshot
of a given URL. I was wondering how this would be posible using
Java.
Any help or comments will be greatly appreciated.
Chanie

Thanks, that worked beautifully.
I was wondering if you could help me with one more point.
There are some webpages that before getting to them you must
give a username and password. I was wondering how I could get
data from such a webpage if I know the username and password
using Java.
Thanks in advance.

Capturing data from a RS232 device

how do I capture data from an RS232 device to my APEX application. Precisely, I am using a barcode scanner and I need to know how to get the barcode data into an item (say P12_barcode) in my application. I have tried the keyboard wedge and the problem is that I have to set the input focus each time I need to collect the barcode of an item, so I have to switch to RS232 mode but how do I get this barcode data now?
Please HELP...

Thanks a trillion for this reply! wether your reply was helpful is an understatement in this matter!
That is the type of Barcode scanner I am using man... they call it USB Keyboard emulation. It scans into note pad, word processors and text items freely.
In my design for a solution to this problem, I have on paper, your type of solution but I lack the ability to set the focus on the desired Text Field when my cash_sales page loads.
Secondly you said "I did have to set it to include a "Enter" after each scan" that touched upon another bug in me: I had always wanted the form to submit after each scan so that my procedure can use it against the items database and display the item in my Current Transaction Report. How did you set it to include a "Enter" after each scan? Is it on the scanner or at the page item level?
Precisely I am using Metrologic MS9520 barcode scanner a.k.a Honeywell MS9520 barcode scanner!
If I can set a cursor in my Px_Barcode text item after loading my CASH_SALES page and automatically submit the page after a scan(without clicking any button) then my nightmare is over...and you become my Virgo 2009 Hero.
Happy September :)

Need suggestion to get data from change log table of ODS.

Hello,
There is a case where i am loading opportunity header data from header ODS and opportunity item data from item ODS in the opportunity cube.
Status (1= OPEN, 2= WON ETC) of the opportunity are available only in header ODS and not in item ODS.
While loading data from header ODS to cube, I am loading it directly but while loading data from item ODS to cube i am using active data table of header ODS as a lookup in the update rule from item ODS to cube. I am selecting status from the active data table of header ODS while loading data from item ODS to cube.
Since active data table will have only after image records, there is some data mismatch in the report as i am selecting data from active data table of header ODS while loading data from item ODS to cube.
I need to select data from Change log in order to get before image also instead of active data table in order to overcome this issue. Is there any way by which i can do selection from Change log instead of active data table as change logs are generated at run time.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions.
Regards,
Sanjay Chaurasia.

Hi,
You can use the changelog table of the DSO.
Right click manage the Header DSO, go to the contents tab and click Change Log table. There you can see the technical name of the Change Log table.
In the update rule Routine, give the tech name of Change log table instead of Active table name.
Hope it helps.

How to combine data from different input forms outside a nested iView

Hi,
i try to combine data from different input forms in a single one.
Because of space reasons in Flex compiling i already use nested iViews. Within these nested iViews its possible to use the 'combine' function to do this.
But in the main iView I cant compose these function with other elements. I need to do this because of using these model in Guided Procedures with output parameters. These parameters I only get with a 'endPoint'. Unfortunatly its not possible to combine data from different input forms into the 'endPoint'.
Is there any solution?
Thanx
Mathias

Hi Scott,
i tried this already and i also tried to map all parameters in the endpoint by drawing lines from the other forms and assign the 'empty parameters' by a formula.
And when i create a collable object in GP and assign the VC iView, only the parameters of the parent-form (the form who trigger the event) are shown as output-parameters.
Maybe any other ideas? I cant believe that such a simple thing is not possible?!?!
In my opinion, thats a bug, that I'am not able to use the combine-operator in the main VC-iView. Whats your mind?
greets
mathias

Looking for a solution or service to export data from a dynamic form into a database

As the title of this discussion states, I'm looking for a solution or service to export data from a dynamic form into a database to be used for reporting. Creating the dynamic form is not a problem, it's getting it into a database that's more of a nuisance. A dynamic form is needed in order to provide skip logic, hide/reveal, and other similar dynamic features.
The database hasn't been created, so just looking for the easiest, more effective and dependable solution. The key is being able to run reports off the data later.

So i set up 2 residential grade routers to test this out. Seems to be working okayish. I believe with directional antenae routers I should achieve what I need.
As for security I configured each device separately. I set them so only allow the MAC address of the other through wireless. This seems to be the best system for me. Once they are connected even if a MAC is spoofed of the other router it drops automatically because they are always connected. My wired devices get plugged in and recieve an IP from my main network.
There more testing to be done, but it seems to be working.
Thanks for your input and suggestions guys. I will be marking this topic as answered.

Export data from a scanned form.

Hello
I have several forms that users will fill out and email back. The data can then be extracted using Adobe's forms tools. However, at times the form is returned either on paper or scanned.
Is there a way to extract the data from the scanned form? I am reading something about templates--I am not sure if that is the way I need to go. I only want to extract the data-such as name, address, etc. I am not wanting to convert to another format, such as word, etc.
If someone could direct me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
Thank you in advance for your assistance!
I am using Adobe Acrobat Professional XI and LiveCycle Designer. Some of the forms are developed in Adobe, some in LiveCycle Designer.

Not in the same way. Printing and then scanning a form causes it to lose
all metadata, including the field objects.
The only way to do it at that point is to run OCR and then use a script
that looks for the data in the same locations where the fields used to be,
and export what it finds. This is not a simple task, though, and it's
likely the results will not be 100% correct.
