Developing a dynamic table in jsp

I am developing a jsp page which has requirement something link this.
User enters parameter name and parameter value and clicks on add button the details should get displayed in the table in the jsp.user should be able to select the row which he/she wanted to delete and on click of delete the row should get deleted. Please help me in designing this page.All the details will be stored in the data base when the user clicks on submit button.

That is indeed a lot of code, but is basically relativeley easy. Just understand how passing HTTP query parameters works and make use of JSTL/EL as much as possible.
Though there are tag libraries out which minimizes the code effort. Such as the 'displaytag' taglib. [Google it|http://google.com/search?q=displaytag].

Dynamic table in JSP

Hi,
We need some help regarding an unusual problem we are facing in our web application.
The background:-
We have a web page (JSP) for updating (adding, modifying, deleting) data from a single table. This page has been designed in such a way that when ever it is invoked, it displays content of the entire table on the page. Also there is a facility of filtering this content. The entire table content is displayed in a dynamic table without paging. There is one java script which is used to manage the scrolling of this table (300 rows at a time). Please not that it is just scrolling that is controlled by the Java Script, that is the entire table is displayed in a specific area with vertical scroll. Each row in this table has a radio button associated with it which is used to select a particular row for modifying it. User can select a single row at a time.
The problem:-
This page was working fine, until the number of rows in the table were under 70,000 records. Currently there are more than 72,000 records and the page doesn�t get displayed at all. It is not giving timeout error and also it is not going in to �Not Responding� state. It is simply showing a blank result page without the result table. Initially we thought that because we are fetching so much data in one go this would have been happening. But this problem arises only when we access this page from PC having Windows-XP operating system. If we access this page through a PC having Windows 2003 Server OS then it displays the entire table in a normal fashion.
We are in the process of redesigning the page, but still want to know why this is happening. It will be a great help if anybody can give any pointer on this issue. And also what should be a better option of displaying such a huge table for modification of rows.
Thanks and Regards,
Jagdish.

Thanks a lot masoodmjan.
Lets assume that this problem is due to huge data being desplayed at once. Now if I decide to provide pagination to browse this entire recordset, which now has grown to 90000+ records, how many rows should I desplay on 1 page? Is there any thumb rule to decide this number?
Just now I tried with 10,000 records per page & it took more than 25minutes to display single page. :(

Need Dynamic Table in JSP page

Hi Friends,
I need to build table dynamically in my JSP page.

how can solve this problem..

Hi I am not a big programmer but i can suggest a method to u
try something like this..
this could be quite adjusted in html page itself.....
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript">
var count=1
fucntion addRow(){
if(count<8){
count=count+1
row.innerHTML=row.innerHTML+"<tr><td><input type='text' name="+count+"></td><td><input type='button' onclick=addRow() value='Add' name='add'></td></tr>"
else if(count==8){
row.innerHTML=row.innerHTML+"<tr><td><input type='text' name="+count+"></td><td></td></tr>"
</script >
</head>
<body>
<form action='Myservlet" method='post'>
<table>
<div name='row' name='row'><tr><td><input type='text' name=1></td><td><input type='button' onclick=addRow() value='Add' name='add'></td></tr></div>
</table>
</form>
</body>
</html>
I believe it could be quite adjusted @ client side itself.... as per your description...

Dynamic table on specific height of JSP page

I have large data.
I have to show this data in dynamic table on jsp page.
the JSP page is logically divided in different pages (as this page is used for printing on specified size of page)
I can only display atmost 12 single rows on one page
but some times text of one column of row become so large that rows expands vertically and occupies space of 2 or 3 rows (thats why now i have to display 8 or 9 rows on first page and then remaining on next )
becoz of this i cant implement this check (only show 12 rows on a page).
so what can i do to show specified height of table on one page and remaining move to next page.

This is an impossible requirement. Page, font and element height is not only browser dependend, but also depending on the settings of the user. Some users will override the font size to be smaller or bigger using a browser option, resizing your table accordingly. Mac fonts might have different sizes if the fonts are antialiased, etc.
You'd have more success if you could output the table as PDF, there are far more table spacing options available, it's portable and you have 100% control over the output. Check out the iText API for example. The only problem with this is that the PDF will be opened by a PDF viewer which you cannot control, so you cannot make it automatically print.

DYNAMIC TABLE CREATION USING JSP

I WANT TO CREATE A DATABASE TABLE IN AN INTERACTIVE WAY ie MY QUESTION IS: HOW TO CREATE A TABLE USING JSP WITH TWO ARRAYS(FIRST ARRAY CONTAINS FIELD(COLUMN) NAMES AND THE SECOND ARRAY CONTAINS ITS CORRESPONDING DATATYPE)BOTH ARRAYS ARE OF VARYING SIZE.IF THE USER ENTERS SUPPOSE '6' AS THE INPUT TO FORM A TABLE OF 6 FIELDS SO, THE QUERY SHOULD BE DYNAMICALLY FORME USING THE ARRAY NAME FOR FIELD AND THE ARRANAME FOR ITS CORRESPONDING DATATYPE.HAVE ANY IDEA ON THIS PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
THANKS

u need to know quite a few java technologies to make archieve your dream.
JDBC, dynamic array and JSP.
after reading tutorial regarding to these 3 materials, you should be able to get your job done.

Send multiple rows to database from a dynamic table.

I'm using JSP for my application. I have a table that changes
in size depending on a value a user selects in a drop down list.
They can then enter some values into the table and click the submit
button. I know for whatever reason Dreamweaver only sends the first
row to the database and I've had a hard time finding good
examples/tutorials showing how I could make it send all the rows to
the database.
Is there a way for me to just do a while/for loop taking into
account the number of rows in the table? That would be ideal for me
as it sounds like the simplest method and I'm very new to web
development.
Should I be using the Server Behavior Builder or a Stored
Procedure and if so is there any good examples for those as I've
had a hard time working with any documentation/tutorials I've found
regarding them.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Baxter, thanks for the response. I guess I should have
been more specific when I said I was new to Web Development. I am
actually in Software Development where I primarily code in Java and
other OO languages. I have worked with a database before in java by
writing my own servlet. I have also done some HTML so jsp is very
good for me as it is mostly java with the odd bit of html
structuring with tables and such.
Languages like PHP and ASP I am not very familiar with and
most of the solutions I find for this very problem revolve around
ASP. I have just found it very hard to find a solution to this
problem. It seems like it isn't talked about very much even in
Dreamweaver's own documentation. If a stored procedure is the only
way to go then I think I can handle it with some guidance if anyone
knows of some tutorials/examples available.
Also is it really not possible to just go into the code and
somehow make it loop through each row in the table and execute a
prepared statement for each row? I've included some code of the
dynamic table I have and as you can see I have a Submit button on
its own outside of the table. If i had it inside then the user
would have to submit each row individually which isn't realistic
when there are many rows of data. Since the Submit is outside of
the while it only gets called once after the table is populated
thus sending only one row of data.
You might want to copy paste the code into a text editor as
some of the lines are long and may be hard to read here. If you
notice any errors in the table itself like mismatching column
headers it is because I changed some column names before attaching
it here so just assume that the table is all built correctly.
PS: I am going to be out of town for five days or so, so if I
don't reply to you right away don't think I disappeared from this
thread. Thanks again.

HR Logical database PNP. OO to fill table dynamic table from PNP ?

Hi all
I want to get some stuff from the HR logical database into a dynamic table
Here's a real simple example that writes info out to a normal list.
(report is based on using Logical DB PNP)
tables: pernr.
INFOTYPES: 0001,                     "Organizational Assignment
           0002.                     "Personal Data
SELECT-OPTIONS: language FOR p0002-sprsl.
INITIALIZATION.
pnptimed = 'D'.
GET pernr.
PROVIDE * FROM p0002 BETWEEN pn-begda AND pn-endda.
    CHECK language.
    WRITE: / p0002-pernr,
             sy-vline,
             p0001-ename,
             sy-vline,
             p0002-sprsl,
             sy-vline,
             p0002-gbdat.
ENDPROVIDE.
endform.
Now what I want to do is replace the write stuff by appending the entries into a dynamic table which I will display as an ALV Grid.
so I add my structure in the data declarations
types: begin of s_elements,
   pernr type p0002-pernr,
   ename type p0001-ename,
   sprsl type p0002-sprsl,
   gbdat   type p0002-gbdat.
drop_down_handle type int4.
types: end of    s_elements.
include zz_jimbo_incl.
build the dynamic table
create data dref type s_elements.
assign dref->* to <fs>.
i_routine = 'POPULATE_DYNAMIC_ITAB'.*
i_names   = 'NAME_COLUMNS'.
i_gridtitle = 'HR TEST'.
invoker = sy-repid.
i_zebra = 'X '.
i_edit = ' '.
call function 'ZZ_CALL_SCREEN'
     exporting
          invoker     = invoker
          my_line     = <fs>
          i_gridtitle = i_gridtitle
          i_edit      = i_edit
          i_zebra     = i_zebra
          i_names     = i_names
          i_routine   = i_routine
     importing
          z_object    = z_object
          dy_table    = dy_table.
Now to populate the dynamic Itab the routine below is entered.
form populate_dynamic_itab changing dy_table.
assign dy_table->* to <dyn_table>.
create data dy_line like line of <dyn_table>.
assign dy_line->* to <dyn_wa>.
However I can't use GET / PROVIDE / ENDPROVIDE in a Form.
Anyway round this ---seems HR has an aversion to OO.
Cheers
jimbo

Hi,
well, GET_PERNR is a so called event_statement. It has nothing to do with ABAP 00.
Normally it will be like this:
START-OF-SELECTION.
GET_PERNR.
PROVIDE ....
END-OF-SELECTION.
-> and here the CALL SCREEN NNNN for ALV-Display.
Provide-statements you can use in forms of course, and as many times you want during GET and END-OF-SELECTION.
But as I understood : you just want to save the write-statements?
I always develop a DDIC-Structure, declarate the data objects in the programm, read the data via Provide into the infotypes, and then make a move-corresponding to my structure. and display it.
Normally no problem.
kind regards
maik

How to populate a dynamic table according to the choice of the viewer

Hi there,
I ran into a dead-end on my "Events" page.
There is a dynamic table getting the info from a database. It will initially show the Upcoming Events.
At this point my question is this:
*Can I populate the dynamic table based on a condition where the current date and the event date (as in the db) will be compared and if the event date is later than the current date, it will be displayed in the table. Otherwise, it won't.
If I can do that, can someone please help me out with the code?
Besides that, on the right side of the page there are 3 options for the viewer:
1. View upcoming events
2. View past events
3. Search events by month and year
What I want to do is that when the viewer clicks on 'past events', the table will be reset and populated with those events whose date has passed.
When the viewer clicks on "upcoming events", the table is reset again and populated with the relevant events.
When the viewer selects a month and a year, search the database to find the relevant records.
Can all of this be written in php? Since I read smwhere that php doesn't work with onclick functions... i got confused. Cuz the data in my table will have to vary depending on what the viewer is clicking (upcoming events/past events/search events). I do not wish to create separate pages for each type of event.
If anybody has a better suggestion to carry out this task, please share!
Thanks!

Of course. You just need to compare the date field in your database with the current date as returned by your DBMS date function. Assuming you are using MySQL, you would compare your column with the currdate() function and use the appropriate greater than/ less than operators in the SQL WHERE clause. If you don't know what a WHERE clause is then I would urge you to learn SQL as soon as possible. You can't build data driven sites without a basic understanding of SQL.
>Since I read smwhere that php doesn't work with onclick functions..
What this means is that php is a server side language, where user interactions always occur at the client site. But that does not mean you can't invoke a server side action from a client side event. You most certainly can and would.
You might consider adding links to the dynamic table page that pass a querystring to the php script which determine what filter to add in the WHERE clause- greater than the current date, less than, etc.
Also, in the future, please post these questions to the application development forum.

David,
I want to change the where clause dynamically.Our objective is to make the map in a generic way so that if there is a change in where clause (i.e. adding more conditions in where clause) i dont have to change the map.I can change the values(if used, say emp_no=20) however i'm facing problem changing the whole condition i.e. even the column name.
Thx

Dynamic table generation for Employee Schedule Project

Hi,
I am new to Jave programming and attempting to teach myself Java using the Sun tutorials & these forums. As a first step of learning, I want to do a Automated Employee Schedule Project in Java. (JSP)
There are two main parts of the project. The first part will be a table with the employees listed down the left, the days of the week across the top, and with each cell being that employee's shift for the day. There are four different types of shift in a day ( M- Morning, R- Regular, A- Afternoon and N- Night).
The second part will allows the user to enter in a new employee or display/edit an existing employee's information, including a list of scheduling constraints, like can?t work in Morning shift / Night shift. Apart from that number of employee in a shift may vary based on situation.
Could you please help me to understand the flow for creating this Automated Employee Schedule project?
Thanks in advance.
Amitava

I need the logic as to how to generate the shift plan. Could you tell me how to get about creating this dynamic table and any idea what i should take as baseline? I was thinking to read the employees from the database and take them as input for the first column. and the number of days as the column list. Can you tell me if this is the correct approach?
