Column link image

In my report source I have following column source:
case
when iv.email is null then '<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#pkt_mailto.gif">'
else null
end email
It behaves as I expected. But I need to have link on the images shown. So I set as link text for this column #EMAIL#. Instead of previous images I get an empty column. Why?
Pawel

Why not just wrap a H REF tag round the image
e.g.
case
when iv.email is null then '<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#pkt_mailto.gif"></img>'
else null
end email

How to open a popup win within a PDF file (c:\test.pdf) as Column Link

I have a interactive report based on a Table (EMP). I need to create a column link that opens a pdf file within the employee curricula
All the curriculum are stored in a windows folder, and in the EMP table there is a field named PATH containing the full path name.
Thxs,
Giuseppe.

Hello, Sebastian
I've tested your suggestion and in effect it works.
I think is good solution if the files are readonly (pdf, images, etc).
In my case the files are updatable by the end user.
Consider that I'm using the following configuration:
APEX 4.0, DB 11.2.0.1 and EPG
This means that:
a. All the files need to be loaded in the XML_DB via PL/SQL or via WebDAV (let's say in... /i/mydocs)
b. When the end user opens the file via the "Column link" this is read-only in the browser, to modify it, the end user need to save updated version in (/i/mydocs), replacing the existing ones, .. and this is a bit complicated .
Any other suggestion will be appreciate.
Regards,
Giuseppe.

Column Link URL - passing items as args

Hi, probably a syntax problem here but can't seem to pass the items properly. I've got a column with a URL link to an external app which I need to pass htmldb item values to. Currently the hardcoded url for the column looks like:
http://1.1.1.1:8888/app/servlet/MyServlet?action=init&d_id=1&e_id=186 " target="_blank
the d_id and e_id have values contained in HTMLDB items. I tried the &ITEM. and #ITEM# but the url does not include them at runtime.

Sorry, probabaly not too clear before. The url itself is not obtained from a query but is hardcoded in the column data link of a column 'Location' in a report. It displays an image for the column value with a url link to run our external mapping app:
http://1.1.1.1:8888/app/servlet/MyServlet?action=init&d_id=1&e_id=186
d_id's value is stored in the item P34_D_ID
e_id's value is stored in the item P34_E_ID
I'm trying to use a report rows' values for those items and format the url to use those.
so column link url:
http://1.1.1.1:8888/app/servlet/MyServlet?action=init&d_id="&P34_D_ID."&e_id="&P34_E_ID.
results in
http://1.1.1.1:8888/app/servlet/MyServlet?action=init&d_id=
http://1.1.1.1:8888/app/servlet/MyServlet?action=init&d_id='&P34_D_ID.'&e_id='&P34_E_ID.'
results in
http://1.1.1.1:8888/app/servlet/MyServlet?action=init&d_id=''&e_id=''
Pretty sure I just don't understand how/when htmldb uses the items values when generating links.

Submit Action and Redirect page in Tabular form Column Link

Hi All,
I have a scenario to submit the current page and redirect to another page with the arguments, when i clink on the link which is created using column link in Report Attributes.
I can able to perform the submit action, but redirection is not happening.
Created a column link on non database column by providing
Link Attribute : <a href="#" onclick="doSubmit('SAVE')">#FAM_DET#</a>
Target : Page in this application
Page : 7
Item name : P7_TRAVEL_REQ_ID
item Value: #TRAVEL_REQ_ID#
Item name : P7_TRAVEL_REQ_LINE_ID
item Value: #TRAVEL_REQ_LINE_ID#
Can anyone help me out to resolve this.

Remove the link attribute (what you have used there is not the correct way to use this property anyway).
Change the target page to the same page as the report.
Set the Column Link Request property to BRANCH_TO_PAGE_ACCEPT|SAVE.
Create an On Submit: After Processing (After Computation, Validation, and Processing) branch to page 7, conditional on the SAVE request.
If the SAVE request can be triggered by something other than the report link (e.g. a Save button) then use another request value that will trigger the required page process in the link request and branch condition, e.g. BRANCH_TO_PAGE_ACCEPT|APPLY and APPLY respectively.
Note that there is a bug in BRANCH_TO_PAGE_ACCEPT processing in APEX 4.2.3 and a patchset exception must be installed for this approach to work on this APEX release.

Trying to do a pop up from a column link

I have one interactive report (page 1) which I have defined a column link.
The column link is targeted to another interactive (page 2) within the same application.
Everything works except when I click on the column link in page 1 it does not pop up page 2, but instead replaces page 1 in the current window.
I have tried all kinds of java code popup window functions, but to no avail.
This is another simple syntax mistake I am making I am sure.
Any Ideas ?
Thanks in advance for your time.
Anon

Hello Anon,
Ok, here is how this works:
If Target = "Page in This Application" Then
in the Link Attributes box just above the Target put target="_blank" - this will open a new window and display your target page in that window.
HOWEVER, if your target = URL, you still need to put target="_blank" in the Link Attribute box, but put the URL in the place provided.
When I responded before, I got ahead of myself. This: javascript:popUp2('f?p=&APP_ID.:2:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::P2_ID:#ID#',500,400)
is used in the HTML source for a Region (for example) to define a link.
Sorry for the confusion,
Don.

Hi
Read this and follow it...
>
Go to the report attributes, then click on the edit link button by the side of the column you want to be a link to get to the column attributes.
>
So...
1. Go to edit the page that contains your report.
2. Click on the report region as if you were going to edit the report query.
3. Click the Report Attributes tab.
4. Click the button at the side of the column in question.
5. Scroll down to the Column Link section and fill in the details.
I really can't put it much more simply than that...
Cheers

Passing parameter from interactive report column link to new page

I'm very simply trying to pass the value of the column link to the where clause on the next page.
Interactive Report on P2 has column link fid alias in sql query.
I read somewhere to refer prefix the interactive report column with IR ??
So I have item name P2_FID, value #FID#. Anyway, I've tried a kazillion things.
Created a hidden item with same source value... sigh.
Is there a syntax to refer to a report column link, rather than an item_id in a region where clause?
Is there a simple direct way to do this?
Thanks,
Pamela
-----pls/apex/f?p=163:1:2746459963336955::NO::P2_FID:119

Thank you Varad...
Unfortunately, I am still getting no data found. (and there IS data).
a) Do you mean in the link column section of the report attributes? that is done: item 1 name= IR_P2_FID, value = #FID#
b) Do you mean my changing my hidden page item to ir_p2_fid with its source value as #FID# ? also done.
Do I need this hidden item?, and if not how do I refer to link in the where clause of the called page's sql region?
3) Where Fishery_id = :IR_P2_FID
Where Fishery_id = &IR_P2_FID
Thanks again!

No data found when adding column link to classic report

Hi,
Oracle 11g r2, APEX 4.1.1.00.23.
I have some classic reports.
I go to Report Attributes, then I click Add Column Link in the "Tasks" right menu, it adds me a column link, I just add some text for the link and a page to go to.
Then I run the report and I get :
report error:
ORA-01403: no data foundTested with several classic reports on multiple pages.
Debug mode shows me :

Is it an APEX bug ?
- Create a new Region of type Classic Report, then set Region source as :
begin
return test_return_query;
end;- Run the page, the report works as expected
- Go to Report Attributes and click Add Column Link (and just specify a text for the link and a page to go to).
- Run the page, you should get the error !This might be unorthodox but try wrapping your returned query within an SQL statement, like so:
 begin
 return 'SELECT t.* FROM ('||test_return_query||') t';
 end;
I can reproduce it on oracle.apex.com if needed...If my suggestion doesn't work, I think this might be the only option. You could create a new forum posting with the word "BUG" in the title, along with a link to this thread and the relevant workspace details (with guest developer credentials).

Report region with column link that opens a pdf doc based on report query

Hello
I'm building a report table that displays info about a customer - simple select - and, for each record, has associated column links based on report queries that receive ID as parameter. When clicked, it opens the report in pdf extension. My problem here is how to pass the ID as a parameter to that report query considering i'm using a report table and that there are no items in page 71...
This is the report query i'm using:
select initcap(a.customer) customer
, initcap(a.address) address
, initcap(a.rep) rep
, (select initcap(b.city)
from portal_records b
where b.contrib=a.contrib
and b.year=to_char(sysdate,'yyyy')) city
, (to_char(a.datereg,'dd')||' de '||to_char(a.datereg,'Month')||' de '||to_char(a.datereg,'yyyy')) datereg
from portal_authorizations_cve a
where a.id=:P71_ID ???????????????
I thank in advance all your replies!!

Hello
First of all, let me compliment your for your demo application... It's awesome!
I've looked into your sample (page 15) and, as far as i see, it opens a document saved in a table's column. I don't want the file to be saved there but generated when the user clicks on that particular link... So i still have the problem of how to pass the right ID as a parameter considering there is no page item on that page...
My javascript knowledge is little so i ask you: when clicking the link, is there any way of opening a window with the url f?p=&APP_ID.:0:&SESSION.:PRINT_REPORT=Authorization_CVE and the ID as a parameter?
I thank in advance!

Interactive report, conditional display of column link

Is there any way to disable it on interactive report.
case when status=1 column link should be disabled (not visible) in order to prevent future edits on payroll.
SELECT payroll_no, status
FROM hr_payroll
ORDER BY payroll_no DESC;

What exactly is the error you get? What HTML is showing in the HTML source?
Just by looking at this I would say you need to remove the "/" in front of the f?p
Keep in mind this way could cause problems if you start to use checksum, then you might want to look into using APEX_UTIL.PREPARE_URL to create your URL.

How do you pass more than 3 items to another page via a Column Link?

I know this is a simple question, but I don't see it covered in the manual.
I have a report on page 1, when the user clicks on a column link, I'd like to pass 4 items to the page that is called.
The Column Link area allows you to specify 3 items. How do people normally accomplish this?
Do you somehow use page zero? Do you use Application Items for this purpose?
Also, can someone recommend a good APEX book to supplement the manuals?
Thanks

hI
Oh Varad I didnt know this, Thanks for a new tip ;)
Just change the target to URL and enter a simple statement
in the URL section
f?p=&APP_ID.:50:&SESSION.:10:&DEBUG.::P50_item1,P50_item2,P50_item3,P50_item4:value1,#column_name2#,#column_name3#,#column_name4#
Use value when u know a fixed value to be passed
and column names on the same report can be passes by using #column_name#
Hope this helps
Thanks

Can't change a linked image???

I have a lot left to learn in Dreamweaver but linking images I've done alot, I hope someone can help me on what I'm doing wrong. The linked image won't let me change links. Here is the home page http://kmmcement.com/. The bottom right picture under click to view slideshow is linked to slideshow.html. I changed the slideshow and named the new one ss.html. When I right click the picture and choose Change Link and select my new ss.html, it does not change it in the code. I tried manually to change it in the code and publish, but the new page won't load up (although when I preview the page, it loads fine.)
The only thing I've done differently on this site is that I finally learned to get the bottom navigation links to work without looking jumpy and jittery when clicking or rolling over them, by going to Modify - Page Properties and choosing links and set them up there (basic that I should've learned awhile ago). I didn't do the navigation bar until last, so would that have anything to do with not being able to change the link? If so, then how can I change it to where only the bottom navigation has it's own style as I'm sure there's going to be alot more links I'm going to be adding.
Thank you in advance for any help. (By the way, I'm using Dreamweaver CS3)

Starting on line 215 of your code, you have this:
<tr>
<td height="338"><div align="center">
CLICK TO VIEW SLIDESHOW!
<a href="slideshow.html"><img
src="images/slideshowpic.JPG" width="347" height="223"
border="0"/></a>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
Try changing it to this:
<tr>
<td height="338" style="text-align:center">
<a href="ss.html">CLICK TO VIEW SLIDESHOW!</a>
<a href="ss.html"><img src="images/slideshowpic.JPG" width="347" height="223" border="0"/></a>
</td>
</tr>
Save. Upload page to server along with ss.html page. Hit refresh in your browser.

Calendar weekly view: unwanted nonbreaking spaces before the column link

Hello,
I have a column link in a calendar. In the weekly view, before the link text appears (specifically before the anchor element) multiple nonbreaking spaces are output. The more links I add to the calendar, the more spaces appear, so the links are all over the place in the cells. The HTML looks like
td class="DefDay" valign="top" ... multiple-nbsp-tags-here ... anchor-element ... link-text
Any ideas?
regards,
Malcolm.

Hi Denes,
Thanks for your quick reply. I have mailed you a screenshot of the corruption I am talking about. The whole page template is "application default". In the "Calendar Attributes" tab in that region, I have three options in the template combo-box: calendar, calendar alternative 1, and small calendar. None of those options have any effect on the column link display corruption. In the "Region Definition" tab. the user interface template is "reports region". I have tried a number of different templates there and none affect the corruption in the column-link display either. I'm using Theme "Modern Blue 20" and the template utilization screen off Shared Components says my calendar page is using a calendar template.
regards,
Malcolm.

Can't get column link in report to work

I'm trying to get a column link in a report to work and I keep on getting the error "Query cannot be parsed, please check the syntax of your query. (ORA-00972: identifier is too long)" The code looks like this:
SELECT IDDR_NAME AS EDIT, IDDR_NAME AS VIEW_DETAILS, IDDR_NAME,
 IDDR_VINTAGE_YEAR, DATE_DUE, DATE_SUBMITTED,
 SUMMARY_DESCRIPTION, RSTATUS, SSTATUS,
 '<a href='"'||:APP_ID||':287'||:APP_SESSION||'">'||link||'</a>'
FROM IDDRI've tried the above and other variations of link syntax that I found in other posts on the forum but everything seems to give me an error. I need to put think link into the code because it will eventually be a conditional link.
Thanks
- Brian

Thanks for the replies.
After I posted, I tried something a little different that is sort of working. I tried making my link like so:
'<a href=''f?p=&APP_ID.:287:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.">LINK</a>'(The '#' is really a double quote but I had to make it like that for the forum...)
When I use the above link syntax with a SQL query it works. The problem is, I need to use a PL/SQL function returning n SQL query. When I try the same link syntax with that, it seems to think :287 is a bind variable.
I get the error message:
(ORA-20001: Unable to bind :287 verify length of item is 30 bytes or less. Use v() syntax to reference items longer than 30 bytes. ORA-01006: bind variable does not exist)
Thanks again

URGENT Printing a BI publisher report from a column link in APEX

I am developing an APEX report with a column link that will call a BI publisher report, the case is the link column in the APEX report will pass the item number to the BI publisher query.
At the moment this is what I am doing:
1- Create a hidden item on top of page zero. (e.g. PARAM1_VALUE)
2- Create a report query and a report layout (For BI Publisher) in the Shared Components. (e.g ITEM_REPORT)
3- Include the state session in the report query and reference that item in the query. (e.g. SELECT * FROM items where item_number = :PARAM1_VALUE)
4- Create an APEX report displaying orders with the item number as a link column.
5- In the Link column I set the report URL request to be "PRINT_SERVER=ITEM_REPORT".
6- In addition I set the PARAM1_VALUE to be #ITEM_NUMBER# on the link.
When I press on the link the BI publisher report prints but it doesn't display anything except the Headers, my understanding is that PARAM1_VALUE is not set with the item_number value when I press on the link and thus the query returns no results as when I remove the condition from the query i can see the report printing.
Please help as this is urgent

I opened the session and it is there with a proper value, it appears that whenever I enable the inclusion of session state in my shared components query the query returns no rows even if I am not using the item in the query.
So if my query is "SELECT * FROM items" it will display nothing, the only way to get the report data back is to untick the inclusion of the session state and remove any reference to the item from my query, then I will get the report with all my data (which is NOT what I am trying to do).
Thanks alot
