Close popup window and refresh the parent window

Hello,
I have a button in a normal report, when clicked opens up an popup window which is a form containing some items and here in this form (i have some editable text items) I make some changes and click on the apply changes button -- this should update the form, close the popup window and should refresh the parent window.
can anyone please help me out with this issue.
Thanks,
Orton

you have your popup window. When they apply the changes you want it to close the window, right?
Modify the button (save, apply changes) and give it url redirect to the custom function you create (See below): javascript:saveChanges();
in the page header, add a new function:
<script type="text/javascript">
function saveChanges(){
     doSubmit('SAVE');//this is the line to save the current form on the popup window. (This assumes SAVE is the request value that should udpate the db)
     window.close();//close the popup window
     window.opener.doSubmit('REFRESH');//call doSubmit function on the parent window to cause the page to refresh.
</script>

Thanks and Regards,

Hi All,
I found the solution for this. I have created a new page. Then i created an item as link item style in the parent page and i have set the following properties in the Link item:
Destination URI : OA.jsp?page=/seagate/oracle/apps/seasoa/que/webui/SeaSoaHeaderDetailPG&headerId={@ErrHeaderId}&retainAM=Y&addBreadCrumb=Y&backPage=S
Target Frame : _blank
This is opening the new child window without closing the parent window.
Thanks and Regards,

Passing Value from a Popup Window Back to the Parent Window

I am using JSF. I try to pass a value that is entered by users in the popup window back to a text field in the parent window.
quote: document.forms[ ].elements[ ] is null or not an object.
The relevant code snippets are shown below. The screen1.jsp is the parent window:
         <script language="JavaScript1.1">
           function doPopup(source)
                popup = window.open("externalFilePopup.jsp",
                    "popup",
                     "height=300,width=200,toolbar=no,menubar=no,"                    + "scrollbars=yes");
                popup.openerFormId = source.form.id;
                popup.focus();
           </script>
<h:outputText value="Enter the external system file name"/>        <h:inputText value="#{dataManagementBean.ip}" size="18" />
<h:commandButton value="..." onclick="doPopup(this); return false;" />
..........The externalFilePopup.jsp is the popup window:
        <script language="JavaScript1.1">
            function doSave( value )
               var formId = window.openerFormId;
               opener.document.forms[ formId ].elements[ formId + ":ip" ].value = value;
               window.close();
        </script>
     <h:outputText value="IP Address: "/>
     <h:inputText size="25" value="#{dataManagementBean.ip }" required="true"/>
     <h:commandButton value="OK" onclick="doSave('#{dataManagementBean.ip}');"/>
        .......... The script error occurs when I click on this OK button.
Please point out the mistakes in my code. Thank you.

I have made some modifications to the code in the popup window. The error reported in my previous posting is gone. But, I still have several problems:
1. syntax error in the popup window jsp page: line 45, char 21, syntax error, ..., Do you want to continue running script on this page?2. The popup window does not close after I click on the OK button that I coded in the popup window jsp.
3. The value that I entered in the popup window eventually gets passed back to the text field in the parent window only if I re-run the application.
The relevant JavaScript code snippets are:
        <script language="JavaScript1.1">
            function doSave( value )
               var formId = window.openerFormId;
               opener.document.forms[ formId ].form[ formId + ":ip" ].value = value;
               window.close();
        </script>
                                   <h:outputText value="IP Address: "/>
     <h:inputText size="25" id="ip" value="#{dataManagementBean.ip }" required="true"/>
     <h:commandButton value="OK" onclick="doSave('ip'); return=false;"/>
......What are the mistakes that I made?

How to post the data to a new window and control the new window's property?

When we submit the form data to another page, we usually do the following:
<form action="display.jsp" method="post"> will submit the form data and open
display.jsp in the current browser
<form action="display.jsp" method="post" target="_blank"> will submit the form data
and open display.jsp in a new browser
Now, what I want is to open display.jsp in a new browser, but control the window's size,
and disable the status bar, title bar, and address bar of a new browser.
If I do this, it can only open a html page, but not post the data to display.jsp.
window.open('display.jsp', "newWin", "scrollbars=0,menubar=0,toolbar=0,location=0,status=0");
any ideas? thanks!!

<html>
<head>
</head>
<script language="JavaScript">
    function doSubmit() {
       displayWindow = window.open('', "newWin", "scrollbars=0,menubar=0,toolbar=0,location=0,status=0");
       document.submitForm.submit();
</script>
<body>
<form name="submitForm" action="display.jsp" method="post" target="newWin">
<input type="text" name="param1"><br>
<INPUT TYPE="button" NAME="button" Value="Click" onClick="doSubmit()">
</form>

Create pop-up page, submit it and refresh the "parent" one.

Hi, I have a page where I have region with the report where I display pictures associated with the record. What I would like to have is enable user to click a button which would open pop-up page to submit new picture and after submission region would be refreshed showing new picture with description.
Is this possible?
Thanks
Robert

I still don't know if this is possible.
To create thubnails create report with the link to the pictures using code below
decode(nvl(dbms_lob.getlength(photo.thumb),0),0,null,'<img src="'||apex_util.get_blob_file_src('P35_PHOTO',photo.record_id)||'" width="48" />') "RPA_THUMB"
photo.thumb is where you store thumb in the back end
P35_PHOTO item used to upload photo
photo.record_id is the photo id

How to re-show a dialog with the parent window

I am writing an Menu drivern application:
-- A JCMDIPane is put in the JFrame.
-- Multiple JCMDIFrames are added to the JCMDIPane via menu selecting events
-- Each JCMDIFrame (call it parent) may pop up a Dialog window (child) (Thes dialogs are modal)
Here is my problem:
When you switch away from this Java application to other applications (reading mauls, editing word documents, surfing web), of course, the Java program is hiding behind these applications and only left a Icon on your taskbar. The problem is that when switch back from other application to this Java program, However, it only shows the parent window (the JCMDIFrame ) and the child (the dialog) is behind. You have to using Alt_Tab to get the focus on the child and show it.
My question is:
Is there any way can we show the Dialog window is on the parent window (as it originally shown)?
I have tried to overwriting the paint method of JCMDIFrame :
public void paint(Graphics g)
super.paint(g);
if(child != null && child.isShowing())
child.setVisible(true);
This works on other applications but not on the Internet Explore (It always show the dialog).
Anybody can give me a clue?
Thanks!

When you pop up a dialog, if you use the constructor:
Dialog(Frame owner, boolean modal);
and pass it an instance of the parent frame (and set "modal" to "true"), then it is my understanding that it should always appear in front of the parent - are you sure this is what you are doing?
Double check by doing myDialog.getOwner() and make sure it's not null.

How to make the parent window inactive when a child window is opened

hi everybody, i am chaitanya. i am working on a window based application. there are some action events in it. when an event occurs then a child frame is opened prompting the user to confirm for yes or no.
the problem i got is, when the child window is opened the parent window is also active. I dont want this to happen. please help me to fix this problem.
thank you all in advance, have a nice day.

Use a modal JDialog, or better still given the apps. requirement for input, a JOptionPane. The JOptionPane.showInputDialog() or JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog() methods seem well suited to the task.

Modal popup window refresh the parent (calling) window/view

I have a modal popup window that is adding detail records. When this window is closed via the Hide method in my controller I would like to refresh the parent (calling) window/view.
What is the best way to do this?
Regards,
Diane

Here's my process.....
2-windows & 3 views
Window 1 - Selection View and Detail View
Window 2 - Add View (used as a modal popup window called by a button click on the detail view)
Selection View has all the options for obtaining a list of data for the detail view. The detail view has an Add button. Component controller has the hide method and access to the other components that do the update/query methods. On the detail view the user can click Add and a popup modal window shows. User enters data and clicks either the add or cancel button. The Detail view needs to refresh to show the additional data that has been added by the modal window. There are calcuated values in the detail view from a supply function. This function is not running and the values are not changed.
What should be put in the hide method that will cause the detail view to obtain new data and supply the calculated values? If I was using the Add view as part of the same window as the detail/selection views I'd just put in a navigation link between the detail and add views and fire the plug. I like the idea of the popup window so I'd like to get this to work.
I put the wdContext.initialize() in the hide method - which yes - caused the detail view to run - however the context lost all the key values so I received a data not found. I then tried to initialize those nodes that did not contain the key values but the detail view did not display new values.
Thanks for any ideas.....Diane

Problem refreshing the parent page when closing a modal window.

I have page that opens a modal window from a report link column. In the modal window I want to be able to make my changes and press an Apply button so that the modal window is closed and the parent page is refreshed to show the modified details in the report. In Firefox all works well but in IE I get the error message ‘Window.opener.location is null or not an object’ .
When I comment out window.opener.location.href=window.opener.location.href; the modal window closes without error but I want to refresh the parent page with changes made in the modal window.
I’m afraid my java script is very limited (the code is based on other peoples examples.)
Parent Page I call this function from a report link column to display a modal window. Sets the hidden SAVE_STATUS field in destination page to ‘N’
function modalWin(pshow)
var url;
url='f?p=&APP_ID.:'+pshow+':&SESSION.::::SAVE_STATUS:N';
if (window.showModalDialog) {
window.showModalDialog(url,"name","dialogWidth:650px;dialogHeight:700px"); }
else {
window.open(url,"name","height=700,width=650,toolbar=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no ,modal=yes");
Destination page (modal window)
HTML Header.
The function closeWindow should refresh the parent page and close the modal window.
<base target=_self>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
Html Body attribute.
onLoad="closeWindow();"
P_UPDATE_DATE process called from the Apply changes button. Sets the SAVE_STATUS flag to ‘Y’ for the onload in the html body.
UPDATE event
SET event_date = :P5001_EVENT_DATE
WHERE contract_reference = :P330_EVD_CONTRACT
AND event_number = :P330_EVD_EVENT_NUMBER;
:SAVE_STATUS := 'Y';
Thanks in advance, I will have a look when back in the office on Monday.
Cheers Pete

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your help. I think I've sorted it using your first suggestion doing a refresh in the parent page, I just didn't know how at the time.
What I've got in the parent window after the call to the modal window is the reload window.location.reload(); and in the modal window I close it using window.close(); The down side being the refresh happens if I use my 'Apply changes' or 'Cancel' button but I can live with that for now.
It seems to work in IE and firefox but as I say most of what I'm doing is cobbling together using other peoples code without really understanding exactly what it does. Anyway thanks for your help, sound like I should look into JQUERY when I have time.
Thanks Pete
Parent window call to modal
function modalWin(pshow)

else {
window.open(url,"name","height=700,width=650,toolbar=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no ,modal=yes");
window.location.reload();
Modal Window Close.
window.close();

Design Studio Scripting function "refresh" to reload the BI LaunchPad Browser Window and solve the automatic adjustment

Hi experts,
I have created a Design Studio application with GridLayout Components to ensure the automatic adjustment.
In the local mode everything works fine! If I maximize or minimize the browser window the automatic adjustment of the design studio application works absolutely correct.
If I execute the same Design Studio Application in SAP BI LaunchPad the automatic window adjustment works only fine if I refresh the Browser window after minimize or maximize.
Example:
Mnimized and refreshed Browser window (good):
Maximzed and not refreshed Browser window (bad):
To fix this issue, Is there a workaround with a scripting funtion (e.g. ".refresh") to give the user the possibility to reload the browser window by a button or icon?
By the way, the issue and the Todo "Refresh" is valid in Design- and Runtime!
Many thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Michael

Hi Michael,
Isn't this issue fixed in 1.2 SP1?
In any case if you want to manual refresh you have to redraw the chart, this can be achieved by,
reloading data source,
change some selection in the chart,
or change the data source, (apply filter,swap dimensions etc.)

You switch keyboards by going to the " flag" menu at the top right of the screen.
