Dependent Select

Hi
I am trying to get a dependent select where the default
values are from a database. I can get it to create a list of
records in the first drop down which when selected changes the
values in the second drop down. This is then posted to a database
which all works fine.
However, when I view the page again, I need the dropdowns to
show the values posted to the database for that record.
Any help would be gratefully accepted.

I wrote a dedicated widget for that. You can find it here:
http://www.massimocorner.com/libraries/spry/linkedselect/
You can use the "tmt:defaultselected" attribute for that.
Hope it may help

Problem while creating row with dependent select one choice in adf table

Iam having independent and dependent select one choice in a ROW in adf af:table
unable to insert more than one row with dependent select one choice using create insert in adf table.
Able to add more rows in UI af:table but ,ignoring previous rows (select one choice values) and only latest current row values is getting inserted to the database.
Following is the code used to create row and for pointing to the current row
public void addRowOnSecSettings(){
SecurityGroupSettingsVOImpl SecGroupSetVO =(SecurityGroupSettingsVOImpl) this.getSecurityGroupSettingsVO1();
try{
int rowCount = SecGroupSetVO.getRowCount();
SecurityGroupSettingsVORowImpl SecGroupSetRow =
(SecurityGroupSettingsVORowImpl)SecGroupSetVO.createRow();
SecGroupSetRow.setNewRowState(Row.STATUS_INITIALIZED);
SecGroupSetVO.insertRowAtRangeIndex(rowCount, SecGroupSetRow);
SecGroupSetVO.setCurrentRowAtRangeIndex(rowCount);
SecGroupSetVO.setCurrentRow(SecGroupSetRow);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();

Loading multiple dependent select lists

What is the best way to load select lists that are dependent on the previous one?
ex.
Select School
based on school you select the subjects
select subject
based on subject you select the courses,
etc
I'm trying to stay away from as much javascript as possible.
thanks for the help!
Michael

You can use javascript, or resubmit the page and laod the dependant select list based on what was selected.

Embarrassing questions.. :/ Dependent Select Lists

One more embarrassing question to feature my narrow knowledge.
I want to create dependent select lists. Have tried following the procedure as in help:
<p>You can have one LOV drive another LOV by: </p>
<ul>
<li type="disc">
<p>Creating a basic form. </p>
</li>
<li type="disc">
<p>Defining two lists of values. Note that the driving LOV must submit the page after a value is chosen. </p>
</li>
<li type="disc">
<p>Defining a branch that branches back to the current page. </p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Consider the following example. The first LOV enables the user to pick a state. </p>
<pre xml:space="preserve">SELECT state_name d, state_id v FROM states </pre>
<p>The second LOV selects the country name and country ID based on the state selected in the first LOV. </p>
<pre xml:space="preserve">SELECT county_name d, county_id v FROM counties WHERE state_id = :Px_STATE_ID </pre>
I try to follow the procedure and I get nothing in list two.
I am trying to make it this way that if a country selected in 1st list then only regions to that country get listed in 2nd select list.
Can someone "spell" this out for me? With an example? I had previously asked similar question here and never figured out solution out of it, so I am embarrasingly asking once more...

Hi Earl,
Can you please help me out? Hope so.
I then created a page with a text field called
P1_EMPNO.You're not using select list items on the page? That's what this thread is about - although the specifics can be adapted to other page item types.
I added onblur="get_AJAX_SELECT_XML(this,'P1_ENAME')"
in the Form Element Attributes.
My question is, how do I create P1_ENAME? Is it a
LOV, text, etc.Don't know. What are you trying to accomplish? I thought you wanted one select list item to help you narrow down the number of items in a second select list - but it sounds like you've got something else going on. Please explain exactly what your UI requirements are.

How to create dependent Select Lists?

Hi,
Found in the documentation that to create dependent select list we have to do these 3 things:
1. In the parent select list, choose the option "select list with submit".
2. Defining a branch that branches back to the current page.
3. In the child select list sql, use the value of the parent (eg. :P6_PARENT_SELECT_VALUE).
When I change the value of parent select list the page is getting submitted and its going to the parent page. I've a branch that goes to the parent page but how to create a branch that comes back to the same page and then use it in parent select list?
Thanks,
Hozy

Hi Hozy,
1. Make the branch conditional...
2. Create a new branch while will run when you make a selection in parent select list.
Also check this site to create dependent select list without sumbitting the page....

AJAX dependent Select lists

Can anyone please help me figure out where am going wrong?
I have 2 regions on page 1. Region 1 is supposed to have 2 drop down lists (cascading i.e values in second drop down Drop List HJ are dependent on value selected in first lov Ajax Select HJ). Region 2 will be a report.
I am trying to create AJAX cascading lovs based on eg. provided on carl's application so that Region 2 is not refreshed each time I select a value from the drop down's
[http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=36391:37:1510004986327720::NO:RP::]
I have downloaded the application and tried to do the exact same steps, but my child lov is not updating its values after I select a value from in Ajax Select HJ.
My application is available at http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=33829:1:2010637670427735:::::
Appreciate any help on this
Thank you
Deepu

Thank you Denes !! The example really helped me. Now I am stuck at the next level. I am new to apex and learning and building dashboard for my organization. So, please bear with me.
I have a page that is divided into 4 regions. Each region displays a chart that is generated dynamically. When I say dynamic, each region has 2 drop down lists.
First pull down has Org and Year as values, if they wish to view chart by Org or Year. If they choose Org, second drop down defaults to Org. If they choose Year, second drop down displays Year's as 2010, 2009,2008 so on. Depending on which year they choose they should be able to view that Year's chart by month in that region.
Initially I had used select lists with submit for drop down's but that was refreshing the whole page. But now after using your example with AJAX I was able to accomplish the cascading Lov's stuff. Now, after user selects a value in second drop down, is there a way that I can display the chart and refresh only that region each time user selects a value from the drop down.
I want to avoid refreshing the page each time, I need each region to refresh based on user selection in drop down's. Is this possible in apex? Is there any example that you could direct me to.
Thank you so much for all your inputs. Appreciate it very much

Creating dependent select list menus with javascript

Hi Everybody,
I m creating parent and child select list menu. Value of Child menu would be dependent on the value selected in the parent menu. I have tried to implement a code from adobe labs (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/149/tn_14924.html) but many strange javascript errors are coming up.

You'd probably have to put a copy of the app on apex.oracle.com for a complete diagnosis, but you could maybe just check that the Source Used attribute for teh select list is set to 'Only when current value in session state is null' and not the 'Always' option.

Time dependent selection

Hi,
Can anybody help me with me problem?
I'm creating a datasource for a characteristic with time dependent attributes.
I need to have 0DATEFROM as a selection characteristic in the infopackage.
But when I do this, the load fails with the next error mesage: " ZEMPLOYEE : Data record 1 ('01000001 ') : Invalid "from" date '00000000 '". And the same error appears for all values of ZEMPLOYEE.
Does anybody how to solve the problem?

Hi Elena,
Do you load master or transactional data?
If the latter, you need to load master data of 0EMPLOYEE first. The date supplied by the system you need to use in TO_DATE field. The system will take care about creating time-dependent records.
See some examples here:
Re: Master Data: 2 records with different FROM-TO dates
Re: Master data load failure

"No data to retreive" depending selection but there are data

Hi folks,
It's happening something really weird in a webi we have built.
We have a webi report built on a query bex - olap connection. In the query we have a variable which is 0PLANT, it's a hierarchy variable; in the webi itself we have specified the rest of variables, amongst then Document Date (0DOC_DATE).
If we run the report choosing different values just in 0PLANT and 0DOC_DATE variables, webi shows data... sometimes!
Case 1)
0PLANT = the top hierarchy node
0DOC_DATE = 01.10.2013 - 31.12.2013
Data -> ok
Case 2)
0PLANT = the top hierarchy node
0DOC_DATE = 01.01.2013 - 31.12.2013
No data to retrieve, which is a nonsense because at least there are date for the last 3 months
Case 3)
0PLANT = a minor hierarchy node
0DOC_DATE = 01.01.2013 - 31.12.2013
Data -> ok
As you see, sometimes reports shows a message saying "No data to retreive" but there are data.
We are thinking when we make a huge selection, as webi would show a huge amount of rows, instead of giving a "time-out" or another error, is saying that "no data to retreive".
What do you think?
Thanks

Hi,
After having done lots of executions and tests, we think we have found the possible explanation. It turns out that this report has a lot of dimensions (around 30) as "free dimensions", I mean, not shown directly in the report, but possible to include them once run.
It seems that when a webi is executed, BO looks for all data, independently it's or not in the default view. We have removed all dimensions, remaining just those which are really needed, and webi worked!
It looks like it was a kind of time-out error.
Extrange.
BYT Koen; case1 is january, and case2 is october (I should have put a more visible example lol)
Thanks

Hello,

How to do dependent select list based on parent select list

Hello... I have the following bit of code...
*parent select
htmldb_item.select_list_from_query(1,null,'select program_desc_eng, program_id from myfps_programs')
* child select using parent value
htmldb_item.select_list_from_query(2,null,'select sub_pgm_desc_eng, sub_program_id from myfps_sub_programs where program_id = <VALUE FROM ABOVE?>')
I know this is easily done using the select list form items and such but I need to use the htmldb_item function. On screen when a user selects value from the parent select list, I want the child select list to use the value of the parent as a parameter into its own select list. How can I reference the parent? (ie can I use htmldb_application.g_f01(1) or something of this nature?) I realize I may need a bit of javascript to have it work correctly but I'm just wondering if its possible?

This is not a trivial task.

Dependent Select Boxes Driven from Web Services

Here's a little tutorial that I put together that demonstrates a technique whereby a user makes a selection from a select box, triggering a web service invocation which in turn populates a second select box:
