Dialog window popup shows calling page insead of dialog page in Portal app

Hi,
Within my Webcenter Portal application (JDev 11.1.1.5.0) I'm experiencing the following popup behavour.
I have made a navigation model which is used by a tree menu (situated in my pagetemplate in the left panel) and the breadcrumbs ( pagetemplate, top panel). On one of the pages (to which you can navigate by means of this tree menu) there is a link. When you click this link, you'll see a dialog modal window (popup window). I have made this popup by creating a taskflow with a jspx page on it. The jspx page has no page template, so it's created as a blank page. To test it, for now I have only put an outputText on it. In my adfc_config file I have dragged this taskflow to the screen, setting the properties 'run as dialog = true' and 'display type = inline-popup'. A control flow case was also made ( of course..... ;) ).
On the calling page I made a commandlink with the action of the control flow case, and the properties use window = true, inlinedocument, applicationModal.
Okay....
When I place this link on the homepage (the page that starts up when I have logged in), and click the link, the popup shows and displays the right page (the jspx with an outputText on it).
BUT when I navigate to a different page (by means of the tree menu) and click the link on that page (which is an exact copy of the first link), the popup still shows.....only displays the page and pagetemplate I have just come from.......So in my popup I'm looking at a page displaying my default pagetemplate, my treemenu etc.
Is someone familiar with this kind of behaviour?
Also, how can I resolve this??

Hi.
It's the same issue that:
- External Window Dialog in Resource Catalog Task Flow?
- Re: Custom ADF TaskFlow & WebCenter Portal Application
I have an Blog entry about this bug: http://danielmerchanoracle.blogspot.com/2011/10/oracle-webcenter-portal-ps3-bug-al.html (in Spanish).
Only fix that i found is changing Navigation Model to Item links (that contains your popup invoke) with "Redirect to URL" instead of "Redirect URL in Page Template".

However, can u test your problem in different browsers? IE7, IE8, Firefox , Chorme and tell me if your problem persist in all browsers?

Windows not showing. Page source and library windows open but not showing.

I select View --> Page Source and no window appears. Under the Window menu, the item Source: . . . shows but no window. If I close the main window then the item is ticked but still no actual window.
I have disable all extensions and plugins, safe mode, revert all preferences.
the same happens with Show all Bookmarks. This is why I posted this under bookmarks problems originally - see below.
I now find the same happens to downloads and Error console windows. No problems in Safari or MS Word (usually the worst performer)
Bookmarks are all present, but show all bookmarks produces no window, even though the window menu shows an item and I can select it.
Mac OS 10.6.8 FF 5.01 Show all bookmarks shows no window, even if I close the main window. Under window menu the 'Library' item is ticked but still nothing. I have restarted, and renamed places database. recently installed some of these addons

The one that solved it was my own last post, which does not have a Solved it.
I copied the FF profile folder from another login and started with that.
However. . . the problem is back. I installed extensions, NoScript and MyBookmarks and it seemed OK after that.
Then I installed Download Youtube videos + 3.3.51, then DownThemAll! 2.0.7, Google Shortcuts 2.1..6, ImTranslator, QuickWiki and Read It later. No Plugins ennabled.
when I disable all extensions then the windows for downloads, error console and 'open link in new window appear OK, but not the source or Library windows.
As before they are on the window menu but no way to make them visible.

Calling pages in other apps

Hello,
I have 2 applications that reside in the same schema.
App1
App2
I should be able to call a page from App2 in App1.
However evey time I jump from app to app it wants to authenticate me again.
I know authentication is supposed to work with the same cookie yet mine doesn't.
I have tried f?p=333:4:&APP_SESSION. and f?p=333:4:&SESSION. and neither of these help.
Can you tell me what to look at to resolve this?

Take a look at this post Re: automatic login
Thanks,

How do you have 2 Safari windows open and show both pages simultaneously on the monitor

How do you keep open 2 Safari windows and show both pages on monitor?

While in Safari with your first window open go to the File menu and select New Window. That will open the second window on which you can navigate to your second web page. Resize both windows to fit on your display.

Help with modal dialog returning a value to the calling page

Greetings,
Apex Version: 4.1.0.0.32
What I am trying to do is to create a modal dialog that is called from a form page. The dialog will present the user with an IR report that will allow the him to select a row and return a value from that row to a field on the calling page. I have it working in Firefox, but I get an error using IE 8. I hope someone can show me why it is not working in IE.
Here is how I am doing it:
From the calling page:
Created a button
     Action: Redirect to URL
     URL Target: javascript:var rc = window.showModalDialog('f?p=&APP_ID.:70:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.:::','','resizable:yes;center:yes;dialogWidth:1000px;dialogHeight:500px;');
On the called page:
The called page is an IR report where the query returns this as one of the columns:
*(Note: I had to put a dot '.' in front of the onclick to get it to show in this thread. It is not there in my real code.)*
select
<a href="#" name="z" style="color:blue; text-decoration:underline;" .onclick="javascript:passBack(''' || LOT_NO ||''');">Select</a>' SelectThis
, column1
, column2
from sometablename;This resolves the anchor to:
<a .onclick="javascript:passBack('232158');" href="#">Select</a>Here is the Javascript function that is called from the anchor onclick:
function passBack(passVal1)
opener.document.getElementById("P75_ITEM1").value = passVal1;
close();
}When I run this in Firefox, it works as expected. I click on the button on the parent page. The modal dialog is opened and the IR report is displayed. I click on one of the links in the report and it returns the correct value back to the calling page and closes the modal dialog.
When I run it in IE8, it fails. I click on the button on the parent page. The modal dialog is opened and the IR report is displayed. I click on one of the links in the report and I get this error: “opener.document is null or not an object”.
I hope that is clear and that someone can help.
Thanks
Larry

A quick google search determines that window.opener doesn't exists when using window.showModalDialog
Suggestions range from using window.open instead of window.showModalDialog to using dialogArguments instead of window.opener
Try the following:
In the parent page define a getPopupValue() function:
function getPopupValue(){
   var dr = window.showModalDialog('f?p=&APP_ID.:70:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.:::','','resizable:yes;center:yes;dialogWidth:1000px;dialogHeight:500px;');
    if ( (dr != undefined) && (dr != '') && (dr != false) ){
     $x("P75_ITEM1").value = dr;
}Change the button url to call the function:
javascript:getPopupValue(); On the popup page change the passback function to:
function passBack(passVal1)
returnValue = passVal1;
close();
}

Will not show web page on windows high contrast

Hi,
Am running Windows 7 64bit
my problem is as follows.
I normally run Windows in high contrast mode and would prefer all web sites to be on the dark side.
Occasionally I need to be able to see a web page as its designers intended it to be.
So I want to have the text white and background black and then the ability to toggle between that and the web page's own colour scheme.
Thought I'd found exactly what I needed in the add-on "Toggle Document Colors 1.0"
Am presuming it toggles the status of the "Allow pages to choose their own colours..." tick box.
This setting seems to get lost when FF closes. Even if I set the tick box myself and then close FF it is gone when I reopen FF.
If the box is ticked and a page refreshed it still does not show web page colours ?
Without any addons at all after a reset and only using the colours dialog I cannot get it to behave.
If you start in Windows white mode (normal) things are better even after FF close. Change to Windows black mode (high contrast) things start off ok then after you close FF it will not work
If there is a solution I would love to know it.
Will settle for a workaround.
Considered using old version of FF, but this is not really a good idea.
Really don't want to go back to IE
in hope ... Bob

iTunes does not yet support Windows 8, so there may not be a fix until such time as Apple releases a version of iTunes that does support 8. You can search this forum for "windows 8", though, and perhaps you'll find a suggestion in one of the other threads on the issue.

Popup not INSERTing into table and not refreshing called page ...

Greetings
Environment: APEX 3.1.1.00.09 on AIX 5.3 in 10gR2
I have read many of the threads concerning my issue and I feel I am getting close to the answer but somehow have combined too many of the suggestions and am tripping over my own code.
Please look at my sample application on apex.oracle.com:
Workspace: galway
User: gwicke
Password: gwicke
Please start with Page3, select any Agency and then click 'Add New Contract'.
There is currently a <strong>BOLD </strong>label 'Add New Builder' that is a link that should open a popup window. Type any name into the field and click 'Create Builder'. This should INSERT the row into the builder table, close the popup, assign the new builder name to the calling page item 'Builder Name' and populate the screen item.
In it's current state, the application will open the popup window, allow entry and close upon clicking the 'Create Builder' button. However the new builder is NOT inserted into the table and the calling page item is not populated.
By looking at the Page Items and Session State I can see the correct values assigned to the 'Pn_BULDER_NAME' items on both the popup page (4) and the calling page (2) but the value does not appear on the screen.
I've read where there's really two parallel universes, no sorry, two versions of the screen items, one in Session State and one that is displayed in the browser and there are steps to take to be sure the one displayed is updated from Session State as I would like in this case.
I've entered Javascript code in the Page4 - header to define the 'passBack2()' function and code in the 'Optional URL Redirect' section of the 'Add Builder' button to hopefully execute the ARP for the INSERT, assign the Page2 items and close the popup. It doesn't quite get all that done.
Any helpp is greatly appreciated. Thanks to Denes for most of the code suggestions I've followed.

Hi Gary,
I think that there's a very simple solution to this - didn't really spot it last night.
Firstly, yes, you could use a "button" to handle the call for the popup - just make sure that the button is a URL type "button" that is actually an A tag with the call in the URL target setting. Alternatively, you could take you existing A tag and use the same class attribute for one of your buttons as this should make it look like a button.
More importantly, though, I think that we could do it as:
1 - On your page 2 popup call, clear that cache for page 4 (the popup page) - I have already done this in your app by updating the url
2 - On the popup page, allow the user to enter in their desired P4_BUILDER_NAME value (not sure if you want to do something to make this unique?)
3 - Let the user click the Create button on the popup. This will submit the page, which will get your P4_BUILDER_RANK (the pk) value and insert a new record into the table (you could consider creating a sequence and a trigger to handle the creation of a new PK value?).
4 - Assuming the P4_BUILDER_RANK then exists (it wouldn't if there was an error somewhere), then conditionally display a region that had a piece of javascript that submits page 2 and then closes itself - we don't need to pass anything back to page 2 (see below)
5 - As the P4_BUILDER_NAME and P4_BUILDER_RANK exist in the session, when page 2 is being reloaded, (A) the select list would be updated with the new Builder (still not sure why all my entries appeared at the bottom instead of in alpha order??) and (B) both P2_BUILDER_NAME and P2_BUILDER_RANK can have Post Calculation Computations set (NVL(:P4_BUILDER_NAME,:P2_BUILDER_NAME) and NVL(:P4_BUILDER_RANK, :P2_BUILDER_RANK) respectively) - the effect of this is, if there are values stored in the P4 page items, we use them, otherwise we use whatever values were in the P2 page items
6 - Finally, to stop (5) happening in all page 2 loads, you would need to clear the cache for page 4 in as many places as possible - eg, branches to page 2 or buttons on page 2
The reason we can't pass values back to page 2 is that one of the items is a select list. The value we want to select won't appear on the select list until the page has been submitted. So, we can't set the value and submit because the value isn't there. We can't submit and set the value because javascript wouldn't know when the page has been updated (or, at least, you would have to put some independant mechanism in place to identify this, which may become complicated).
So, simply put, as long as we know that if the values are in the session, we can use Post Calculation Computations to set our fields to these values. The only thing to bear in mind is that we need to ensure that these session values only exist when we need them - hence clearing the cache. This principle should work for any type of field - but, as you have no doubt seen, simple text fields can be updated by the popup directly as the field should accept any value we give it.
My only other recommendation would be to completely remove the MRU processes from the page as these are not required (they just confuse the issue) and you could make your PK fetch and record insert into a single process - just to keep things neat and tidy, you understand!
When I finished with your app last night, I did leave it so that javascript would create a new option on the select list and then set the value. But the above methodology seems to be a lot simpler.

What does the PopUp "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs" really mean and if I check the Box, how do I undo this if this was the Wrong Thing To Do?

What does the PopUp "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs" really mean and if I check the Box, how do I undo this if this was the Wrong Thing To Do?
Details
Constantly, while using Firefox (Beta v 11.0), and/or ESPECIALLY, when I have my eMail @ Mail.com open, I get this PopUp stating: "For security reasons, restarting mail.com Mail is possible only via the mail.com Mail Service. Please close this window and restart mail.com Mail" BUT Then there is a CHECKBOX: "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs."
I have no idea if Checking this Box is a Good Idea or if it will Screw-Up my mail.com Mail Service...
Anyone have an answer or explanation of the Use of this Little Check-Box?
BJ Orden [email protected]

You do not get any pop-up windows on that website if you tick that box.
That setting is stored in the cache and you should see pop-ups again if you reload the page and bypass the cache.
Reload web page(s) and bypass the cache.
*Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
*Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
*Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)

"Show Cover Page during Two-Up" from within a browser window?

I frequently use the "Show Cover Page during Two-Up" option (from View menu->Page Display in Acrobat Pro 8.1).
Is there a way to do this from Acrobat Reader within a browser window? I often find myself having to save a PDF to my desktop only to open it in the standalone version of Acrobat because I don't have any access to the View menu while in Adobe Reader within a browser.
thanks in advance
Marty

This is not a feature request, but a query on how Acrobat works. Please repost in the Acrobat forum.

I have itune 10.5 with windows 7, when i click itune store it is not connected and show blank page.

You can't, Anh. That's what people are telling you. At this time there's no way to get out of recovery mode. You're playing around with beta software and this is what you get.
Tell your "developer friend" he needs to talk to other developers to see if this can be fixed, or have him replace your devices that you should never have let him play with to begin with.

R12.2.4 Data lost after using Dialog Page and return back to calling page.(Help Please! )

Hi Team,
I am new to OAF and is working on a requirement to add some custom validations when the user clicks on a Button in a standard seeded page.
The approach I took was to Extend the seeded Controller object that handled this button press event and put my custom logic in the extended controller and override the standard controller via personalization.
The standard flow was that upon pressing the Complete Button in Page A ,user was taken to the next seeded page (Page B) to perform certain operations based on the records that were selected in Page A.
Part of the custom validation requirement was that if certain validations were not met then the user needs to be shown a Pop-up asking if they really wanted to proceed and if they selected Yes then continue with the standard seeded flow(move to page B) and if they selected NO then just stay on the current page.
I was able to use OADialogPage and do this partially , the issue I am running into is that once the user selects the one or more records using a check box from a multi-record (table) region and hits the Complete Button on page A and if the validation fails then a modal page is shown and the user makes a selection i.e.either Yes or No from the modal page and when they return to calling page (i.e. Page A) , All the Data (records ) that they selected previously is lost (Page is refreshed). Based on what I see on this forum I suspect that it is because after clicking on Yes on the modal page and while returning to the original page the processRequest fires again and VO data is queried again and all selections on the page A are lost. Since I am trying to alter the flow in seeded pages based on user intervention I am kind of lost as to how this issue can be fixed. i.e. either prevent the page refresh or preserve the selections that were made prior to navigating to the modal page. Any Help is truly appreciated !!
My Code :
public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext oapagecontext, OAWebBean oawebbean)
if (oapagecontext.getParameter("completeOps") != null) {
if (warnCount > 0) {
//OAException message = new OAException("Not in Sequence...", OAException.WARNING);
//oapagecontext.putDialogMessage(message);
OAException message = new OAException("Rule XYZ Violated .Do you want continue ?",OAException.WARNING);
OADialogPage dialogPage = new OADialogPage(OAException.WARNING, message, null, "","");
String yes = oapagecontext.getMessage("AK", "FWK_TBX_T_YES", null);
String no = oapagecontext.getMessage("AK", "FWK_TBX_T_NO", null);
dialogPage.setOkButtonItemName("ConYesButton");
dialogPage.setNoButtonItemName("ConNoButton");
dialogPage.setOkButtonToPost(true);
dialogPage.setNoButtonToPost(true);
dialogPage.setPostToCallingPage(true);
dialogPage.setOkButtonLabel(yes);
dialogPage.setNoButtonLabel(no);
oapagecontext.redirectToDialogPage(dialogPage);
if (oapagecontext.getParameter("ConYesButton") != null)   {
          // Write Action code for Yes Button
          oapagecontext.putParameter("completeOps", "Continue");
if (oapagecontext.getParameter("ConNoButton") != null){
            // Write Action code for No Button
            String errormsg = "Rule Violations have occured ";
            throw new OAException(errormsg);
   super.processFormRequest(oapagecontext, oawebbean);

I was able to work around this issue by adding a simple check in the processRequest method of my extended Controller to prevent the call to super.processRequest incase when the control returns to the page after the user has made a selection in the Dialog Page
if((oapagecontext.getParameter("ConYesButton") == null) && (oapagecontext.getParameter("ConNoButton") == null)) {
super.processRequest(oapagecontext, oawebbean);
Thanks !
