DA refresh 2 report regions

Hello All,
I have a DA that refreshes 2 report regions ( SQL query) . This works perfectly fine in 4.0.1.
However when I import it to 4.0.2 , just one region refreshed while the other fails.
Appreciate any guidance in figuring out the issue here
Details of DA :
Event : change
Selection type : Item
Item : hidden item whose value is used in where clause
True Actions :
1) Execute PLSQL to submit the hidden item
2) Refresh report1
3) Refresh report2
APEX version : 4.0.2.00.07
Thanks,
RD

Hi RD,
you could use Firebug for Firefox (on the Console you will see the AJAX calls) or the Developer Toolbar of Google Chrome to check if all 3 AJAX calls are executed and what you get in the response. I think that should help you to track down why it's working on one machine but not on the other. Please also have a look at the actual response in the AJAX calls if it's useful data.

Apex 4.2 dynamic action to refresh a report region on a different page

Hi,
I open up a pop up window from a report region. When the user is done in the pop-up window and closes it, can I trigger a refresh on the report region using dynamic actions without actually reloading the whole page? I know I can use dynamic action on a page to refresh the report region on the same page.
Thanks,
Sinan

Sinan,
So long as the region to be refreshed is still loaded, you can do this. I don't know how you are loading your pop-up or unloading it but, the principle should be the same as what I provide below.
Assume that you have set the static ID for your report to MY_REPORT. (Be sure you have checked "Allow Partial Page Refresh" in the Report Attributes).
$('#confirmBox').find('div#userConfirmationMessage').html( '<span class="userInputRequest">Would you to Refresh your Report?</span>' );
$('#confirmBox').dialog(
    autoOpen: true,
    modal: true,
    title: 'Refresh Conformation',
    buttons:
        'No': function ()
            $(this).dialog('close');
        'Yes': function ()
            $(this).dialog('close');
             $('#MY_REPORT').trigger('apexrefresh');

Refresh two report regions separately

hi all,
I have two report regions on a page. I can add a Button to sumbit the page upon clicking, which will refresh the two reports. Is there a way to refresh each report region on demand separately?
Denis

then its simple, create two dynamic actions for each button
go for advance option on "click" event
Selection type: button
select the respective button (template of this button should have "#BUTTON_ID# substitution string")
and in the action select "refresh" then in affected element select the respective region.

Dynamically refresh to report regions

I have a page with multiple regions. Two of the regions are report regions that I want to refresh dynamically. I am using 4.0. I created a dynamic action that fires based on an item's value changing. It contains two actions, a 'Refresh' action for each region. Only one region will refresh. If I put an 'Alert' action between the two 'Refresh' actions, then both regions will be refreshed. I have tried to do this multiple ways, such as using the $a_report() function from within my page level javascript. Results are the same. I can get one region to refresh, but not two. Any ideas or suggestions on why I can not refresh multiple regions?

Thanks for your reply. I tried what you said and still no luck. I then created a new page with two simple regions, a select list, and a button to trigger the refresh. I wanted it be stripped of any other items or code and I used your javascript. It still only refreshes one region. I am requesting space on the Oracle site and will create my test there. Maybe there is a bug in the version we have installed. Our version is 4.0.0.00.46.

Refreshing sql report region based on values from another region - 4.0

Greetings All,
I have a page with two regions, say region 1 and region 2. I have a before header process that fetches values from db based on criteria entered from another page. Region 2 is a sql report region with bind variables from region 1. When this page is rendered region 1 renders properly however sql report region always returns no records. What am i missing here?
I would like to have the region 2 render a report based on the values from region 1. Region 2 has a sql query that looks something like
select
colum 1,
column 2,
column 3
from table t1
where t1.c1 = :p10_item1
and t1.c2 = :p10_item2Using apex 4.0
thanks
Seetharaman

If these items hidden, try making them display only .
Also what happens when you move the items from region 1 to region 2.
From my experience items do not have much of a dependency on the region they are attached to other than cases when the region is not rendered(when its condition fails) and then the item values become null(bcoz they themselves are not rendered).

Dynamic action with interactive report region refresh

Hi!
I'm using APEX 4.02
I've got a page with 2 regions.
Region1 is a (input) form
Region2 is an interactive report on the same table as region 1
When entering values on the form I'm trying to dynmically lookup similar records in the table with the interactive report.
I've made a dynamic action on the change of the form fields which should refresh the interactive report region. I can see this one fires if I add a alert to debug if it fires.
The dynamic report is based on a query with bind variables pointing to the form fields, for example
where
field1 = :P2_FIELD1
This works great on the page load, so no dynamic action is fired but I can see the rows in the report region are the ones I am looking for.
But the refresh of the report region is not working, it is never refreshing and/or showing the correct data after a change of the form fields, so it looks like the dynamic action "refresh region" is not working on the interactive report.
Any ideas why this can go wrong ?
I would like to solve this using standard dynamic actions and preferrably not via PL/SQL or JS, shoudl be possible if I should believe the documentation... ;)
Cheers
Bas

Hi,
When you change value to item, I assume you do not set value to session state.
Use interactive report advanced attributes "Page Items to Submit" , set items session state before report is refreshed.

Is there a simple way to refresh a SQL Query (Updatable report) region

I have a page in APex 4.1 that has many regions. I would like to be able to refresh a single region.
Currently, I have the following
Region (sql query updateable report).
STATIC ID = LANDINGS
in the region footer, I have:
<script type="text/javascript">
$s('P110_LANDINGS_REGION_ID','#REGION_STATIC_ID#');
</script>
P110_LANDINGS_REGION_ID is a hidden field.
I use javascript to refresh....but it does not seem to be working. Previously, we had hard-coded the region id ( $a_report('1363338167540162011','1','100','100');) ...but that ID was somehow corrupted, which has lead me to the 'OMG...there must be an easier way!' lament.
the javascript is:
$a_report('P110_LANDINGS_REGION_ID','1','100','100');
thanks!
Karen
ps. could I just directly reference the static id in my javascript...
$a_report('LANDINGS','1','100','100');

Karen,
First off: please post code in {code}...{code} tags!
function AddFavoriteSpecies()
get = new htmldb_Get(null,&APP_ID.,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=favorite_species_collection',0);
gReturn = get.get();
rowCount = rowCount + parseInt(gReturn);
pHMS_add = '&G_HMS_FLAG.';
$a_report('1363338167540162011','1','100','100');
//$a_report($x('P110_LANDINGS_ID').value,'1','15','15');the statement:
$a_report('1363338167540162011','1','100','100'); works, but the statement $a_report($x('P110_LANDINGS_ID').value,'1','15','15'); does not.
Can anyone help.
I am assigning the page field P110_LANDINGS_ID in the footer of a region with a static id = LANDINGS.
<script type="text/javascript">
$s('P110_LANDINGS_ID','#REGION_STATIC_ID#');
</script>
Well, let's start by dumping $a_report. This is undocumented code, and it has long been replaced by triggering a refresh.
Next, don't use $x(pNode).value to retrieve a value. Rather use $v(pNode) to do this.
function AddFavoriteSpecies()
   get = new htmldb_Get(null,&APP_ID.,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=favorite_species_collection',0);
   gReturn = get.get();
   rowCount = rowCount + parseInt(gReturn);
   pHMS_add = '&G_HMS_FLAG.';
   //get the region id from the item
   //use it in a jQuery selector to get the region
   //trigger the refresh event on this object
   $("#" + $v('P110_LANDINGS_ID')).trigger('apexrefresh');
}Now if you want to make sure that P110_LANDINGS_ID contains a value, add an alert with its value before you use it.
alert('P110_LANDINGS_ID value: '+$v('P110_LANDINGS_ID'))

Partially refresh the sql report region by clicking the region selector tab

No, the region is not appearing because it is conditional on P2_QUERY being NOT NULL. This means that the report region never exists on the page shown in the browser, so it can't be dynamically refreshed. (Dynamic refresh doesn't evaluate region conditions, and it only re-renders the report content, not the entire region.)
Remove the condition on the report region, check the refresh is working, then reconsider exactly what the requirements here are. If you want the region to appear only when P2_QUERY has a value, and you want it to be refreshed without submitting and re-rendering the page, then the region needs to be hidden rather than conditionally rendered, and shown via a dynamic action when P2_QUERY gets a value.
I tried adding an additional Set Value True Action for the DA event but got an error as listed above,
All irrelevant if Page Items to Submit on the region is used properly.

Refresh PL/SQL Report Region (not Page) using Select List value

Hi,
I've got a report region based on a 'PL/SQL function body returning a SQL query'which gets generated on selecting a value from a Select list item, The Select List action is 'Redirect and Set value' but this causes the whole page to refresh rather than just the report region. I've tried to refresh the report only using a dynamic action on the Select List item (Action now reset to 'None') but now the report is not appearing on choosing from the List. Can anyone suggest a solution that will allow me to refresh this report without refreshing the page? I am using APEX 4.2.2 and the report syntax is as follows:
DECLARE
v_statement VARCHAR2(500);
BEGIN
SELECT query_text
    INTO v_statement
   FROM sql_queries
   WHERE query_id = :P2_QUERY ;
   RETURN v_statement ;
END ;
where P2_QUERY is Select List Item,
regards,
Kevin.

SQL Report Region Refresh

Application Express 4.0.2.00.09
Oracle 11 XE
How do I setup a Dynamic Action to refresh my region every X number of seconds? I can refresh the region easy enough on events, but I can't seem to figure out the timing thing. Maybe I just need some sleep...
Austin

Joe -
Interestingly enough, I have not yet found a good way to alter the Report Region title with the last update time. I would think there is a way to do it, but I do not currenlty have that knowledge, nor the time to thoroughly investigate how to do it. I do have a bit to share about the mechanics of the refresh discussed earlier in this thread.
Consider this code, place in the footer of a SQL Report Region:
<script type="text/javascript">
This will place the date as a footer to the SQL report. The javascript will then refresh the report every two seconds. (or whatever timeframe you specify) Now, in my SQL for my report, I added an additional column that is the current time. My SQL would look something like:
SELECT foo,
bar,
to_char(sysdate, 'HH24:MI:SS') update_time
FROM dualThis SQL will show when the data was last fetched from the database, while the footer of the region shows the time when the region was loaded by the browser.
If you run the page with these, or similar, parameters, you will notice that the update_time column in the report changes with each refresh, however, the region footer does not change. This is because the script isn't called everytime the data is refreshed. This would indicate that using the methodology mentioned previously in this thread, the entire region is not refreshed but simply the dataset and the report itself. This would mean that you would have a quite difficult time updating the region title from the SQL code alone... I'm not saying it is impossible, I just don't know how to do it...
Having said that- I do have a work around.
Consider this as the region title:
<div id="MyUpdatedReport" ></div>Now consider this code in the region header:
<script type="text/javascript">
function getUpdatedDate() {
var d = new Date();
document.getElementById('MyUpdatedReport').innerHTML="Region Title - Last Updated: " + d;
t=setTimeout('getUpdatedDate()',2000);
</script>And this in the region footer:
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>We create a DIV tag as our header. Then we have a function in the header that updates our div tag every two seconds. In the footer, we tell APEX to refresh the data every two seconds, and we tell our function to begin working. Effectively, you have a timestamp indicating when, theoretically, the data should have been refreshed. Now, this timestamp in the Region Title is NOT the true update time, but, theoretically it should be close. You should probably test this to see if you want to use it. Personally, I don't like this solution and I don't think I would ever implement it in any sort of production application. However, in an application that is just for me, I might hack something like this up.
The key part of this work around would be to keep your times synchronized. It would be of no benefit if APEX was refreshing the data every 60 seconds but the title was refreshing every 6 seconds. Yikes, that could confuse a few people.
I hope this has been a help.

How to show refreshed modal window(2nd report region window) - reposting

Hi,
I have a requirement where i scroll thru different rows in grid region.
Moment I tab out from first row, I pop up 2nd report, where I show related detailed data lines for the tabed out line of first grid.
So my 2nd window is a report region query, whose 'where' clause contains the primary key from the row of first grid window.
On tab out of a row of first window, I have a javascript function, which shows 2nd report region using:
var mywindow =
window.showModalDialog
('http://MY-URL-/ebus/apexQA111/f?p=&APP_ID.:25:&SESSION.',myObject,'dialogWidth=800px;dialogHeight=300px;dialogLeft:50;dialogTop:50');
Problem:
On First tab out, I get the correct data display on 2nd window, which is related to current tabbed out row.
However, If I tab out from next record, modal window pops up and it still shows my detailed data of first tabbed out row.
Somehow the 2nd window is not getting refreshed/recalculated based on my new tabbed out row. I only have showmodaldialog in my JS function.
Anyway to refresh the window based on new values of the where clause variable? and then showing the window?
Please help!!
Regards,
Ravi.
Edited by: Rave on Nov 26, 2009 6:15 AM

Hi Rave,
You can refresh any window with the java script below, just make it conditional on the value of an item within your page so that it dose not run every time the page is loaded.
if ($v('P1_MY_ITEM') === 'foo' ) {
window.location.href = document.location.href;
}

Error when refreshing report region: ORA-20876: Stop APEX Engine

I'm using Apex 4.2. On click of a button, I refresh 2 Standard Region Reports with a Dynamic Action. This dynamic action has been working without problems for WEEKS and all of a sudden i'm getting the ORA-20876: Stop APEX Engine error when I click the button.
In the dynamic action, I removed the refresh of the second report and now the error does not occur. If I add the second refresh action back in, it throws the above error. I've even tried making the second report identical to the first and the refresh action fails. I don't understand why this is failing on the second refresh action since the second report & region is IDENTICAL to the first report now.
Please help!
Thanks,
John

I would use something like firebug to see how the AJAX call for the refresh is working. I would want to see what is begin posted and what's being returned from the call.
That should shed some light on the issue.

Problem Refreshing Report Region

I have a Report Region, based on a SQL Query. It works fine, and returns the records Queried.
My problem, is that it is not Refreshing, after page Refresh. I even tried Logiing out, and then back in. In my latest attempt, I deleted ALL the records, logged out, and then back in. The prior Report Results were still there. It seems like it is Cached somewhere. The Caching is set to Not Cached.
I am stumped.
Please give me advice. Thanks!

I have seen that only when I thought my query is selecting from a particular table but that wasn't the case. You could create an empty copy of your table and replace the original one in the sql just to see what happens.

Displaying AJAX refreshed report regions

Hi,
Following on from my GetAsync help yesterday I have another question. The next part of the puzzle is I have a tree on the left hand side of the page which, when a node is clicked, causes two reports on the right hand side of the page to refresh. If I use the method described in John's Pro Apex book that works fine.
However what I would ideally like to be able to do is use the GetAsync method again to allow the browser to remain responsive when a node in the tree is clicked. So far I can either insert the whole page into the div - it works, but isn't exactly elegant, or get an XML document from an application process - but this only displays something like "object: [XML document]" (not exact, I don't have it to hand).
I have a feeling I've been looking at this too long, I've looked at trying to insert XML with XSL for formatting but haven't yet got that working (again a complete newbie to XML/XSL pretty much which is probably why...), other options I can think of are traverse the XML document and, with javascript, create a table in the DIV (doesn't feel right), or somehow an adaptation of John's method whereby I somehow traverse the DOM grabbing the content between the BOX_BODY tags.
Any suggestions/ideas gratefully received!
Many thanks,
Gareth.

Ben,
Haven't tried implementing this either but how about:
- you have 5 regions on a page, 1 for each report
- these regions each contain nothing but a div in each case
- each div initially contains nothing but a "Loading..." animation/images/whatever
- You have 5 other pages, each of which are based on a blank page template
- each page contains one report region
- when your original page loads, you kick off 5 asynchronous ajax requests to these other 5 pages
- when the the asynch request completes (i.e. when each page has loaded) you replace the contents of the relevant div (the "loading..." animation) with the contents of the other apex page you have just retrieved with ajax.
I think that should work.
Or, for more flexibility, you could make Application Processes which generate the HTML for each of your required reports. You could then call these via the Ajax requests instead of calling the 5 new Apex pages. (This would mean that the reports are far less easily changeable, however.)

SQL Report Region

Hi,
I am using apex 4.0.1 and I have a page with several SQL Report regions. The user can edit the data in the report regions by clicking a column that uses a href link to open a DML page in a modal window. The user can then amend some data in the modal window, press save which closes the modal window and uses the partial page refresh process to refresh the SQL report region. (Using apex.event.trigger('#SOME_REGION'),'apexrefresh')).
If I navigate through the report to show rows 31-45 and then click on a href to edit a record. On pressing save, the report is refreshed but the rows displayed goes back to 1-15.
How can I get the report to stay showing the rows 31-45?
Cheers
Paul.

I believe this answers my question
