Display author as drop list on advanced search UCM

Hello
Does anyone know if it is possible to have the authors field appear as a drop list on the advanced search screen in 10gR3 UCM?
Thanks

Kyle has a great blog article about changing the Account field, you can probably use the same method for the Author field.

KM folders as drop-down on advanced search

HI All,
When user hits the advanced search option, there is option of restricting search to folders and sub-folders.
This is available in the folder structure. How can this be made to appear on a drop-down option. The user wants to have it in the same way as the sdn search options wherein the search can be restricted based on the dropdown of category/folders.
Please advise.
Thanks and regards,
Arun

Hi Arun,
This is what SDN Advanced Search provides.
Next to the Search term, it provides the option to select an index as a Dropdown choice. Below the search bar, it gives an option to filter the search result through a set of defined filter values like Product etc. This means that the content has been Meta Data tagged for the values represented by the check boxes.
If you select a checkbox, then the result set displayed to you will be filtered according to that.
What you basically need to do, is to define multiple indexes according to your needs and then define meta data properties which are assigned to each document / folder. This way you can achieve what you need.
I hope this helps, if it does, then please award points in SDN.
cheers,
Shantanu

Problem in using quick and advanced search based on transient items

Hi everybody
I want to have an unbound string item in my form and allow users to use advanced search and quick search on that item.
I read the following post About advanced search and added a transient
item on view object and overrode the advance search method in application module and realized that the value of that string was
added to arguments.
Then I decided to add this transient item on entity object instead of view object so that we were able to add the item in one place and
use it in several view objects. I added an item in the entity and unchecked the persistent flag but I can't set queryable flag since it was disable.
I added the item in the view object and by use of application definition I forced the item to be shown in the advance search.
I generate the application and the item was shown correctly in the advanced search but when I set the item in advanced search its value
was not sent to advance search method.
Is it a bug ? (value of the field in the advanced search section was not sent to advanced search method )
Is it a way to add a queryable transient item in the entity object and still benefit from overriding advanced search method ?
I am using Jdeveloper 10.1.3 and Jheadstart 10.1.3.
Any help would be appreciated.
Best Regards
Navid

Navid,
JHeadstart checks whether the attribute definition is queryable before adding it to the list of advanced search attributes. A transient VO attribute can still be set to queryable, for a transient EO attribute this is not possible. We will remove this check on queryability in the upcoming patch release, since you have a valid use case. For now, you can subclass JhsSearchBean and override method createArgumentListForAdvancedSearch and comment out the check for "def.isQueryable()".

A bug in Advanced Search ?

Hi,
In my requirement, I have an EO-based view object which is the view instance of an advanced table, and I provide two submitButtons, 'save button' and 'reset button' on the table which is used to do commit and rollback respectively for the data update.
When user click on 'reset button', getOADBTransaction().rollback() statement in the AM will be executed , then a strange thing happens, the "Add Another" poplist in the advanced search panel will become blank.
Hence I'm wondering transaction.rollback() will cause clearing the VO in the 'Add Another' poplist?
Do I have another way to roll back the change and meanwhile the poplist would not be cleared?
Please help.

MZ

Google Advanced Search only displays 10 Results per page in Firefox 3.6.10

In Google Advanced Search, choose any value for Results per page greater than 10 and do a search. When using Firefox 3.6.10, only 10 results are displayed on each page of results. 10 results per page is the Google default, and the Results per page selection apparently has no effect.
This problem also happens in Google Chrome 6.0.472.63.
The Results per page feature of Google Advanced Search is working properly in other browsers, such as Safari 4.1.2 on a PowerPC Mac and IE 7.0.5730.13 and IE 6.0.2900.5512.xpsp3_gdr.100427-1636 on a PC running Windows XP

Google recently made some changes to the Google search site with the addition of Instant search and that made the setting of the number of results in the Google settings to stop working.<br />
<br />
If Instant search is enabled on the [http://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en Google Search settings] page (link at the top right) then you only get 10 results.<br />
You have to disable instant search and reload the result page and then set the number of results to your preferred choice.<br />
It may not work if you make both changes at the same time.<br />
<br />
There is a link directly to the right of the Google search field on the Google results page.<br />
That is a button with a drop down list: Instant is On/Off.<br />

Advanced Searching - Multiple Menu/List/Radio Button Criteria

Hi All,
I am looking for a dreamweaver and/or PHP/MySQL tutorial
and/or extension and/or tool that can walk me through creating an
advanced search page. For example, I have multiple search criteria
which allow users to select various criteria:
Menu/list #1 (Allows multiple)
Option 1, 2, 3…25
Menu/list #2 (Allows multiple)
Option 1, 2, 3…50
Menu/list #3 (Allows multiple)
Option 1, 2, 3…10
Radio button (allows user to select the way the information
is displayed)
By Date
By State
By Score
By whatever…
Drop down (allows user to select how many records to display)
View 25
View 50
View 75
View 100
View ALL
Any comments and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
BTW, I consider myself a step above the beginner level - could
consider myself an intermediate user of Dreamweaver, PHP/MySQL so
please be gentle

Displaying Advanced Search Criteria

Hi All,
My question is about the Application Sourcing
At an Advanced Table, I have added several Search Criteria using jDeveloper. Those criteria can be selected from a drop down list where the user can select; then click "Add" and then perform the search.
When the user goes to the page only the first 4 criteria appear.
Is it possible to have more than 4 initially appear at the page without having to add them from the drop down list?
Thanks

Hi,
Its discussed earlier. Please see below thread. May answer your query.
Re: How to display more than 4 criteria items on startup of Advanced Search LOV

Search Item drop-down does not show any data for Advanced Search.

Hi,
I have a requirement to add a new criteria to the existing Advanced Search region of 'My Employee Information' in Manager Self Service responsibility. I substituted the AdvancedSearchVO to include the new column. Using personalization i did the below steps to show the new column in the page,
1) Created a 'Message Styled Text' item under Table Layout region to display the result. I associated the View Instance (AdvancedSearchVO1) and View Attribute (AttrColumn).
2) In Advanced Search Panel created a new CriteriaRow and set the 'Search Allowed' property to True.
3) In Advanced Search Mappings i tried to create the new mapping but the Search Item drop-down does not show any of the CriteriaRow item. But Results Item shows the 'Message Styled Text' item created in step 1 above.
Any idea what i would be missing becasue of which 'Search Item' property does not show any data?
I am using OAF version 12.1.1.
Thanks, Suresh

Hi,
I faced the same situation but i still waiting for the solution.. this is my problem's thread..
Addition of LOV Search Filter using Personalization

I m also looking for solution...if any one can provide some inputs on it , will be highly appreciated.

Change priority (drop list) value in WEBUI search area

Hi all,
I looking for the customization area/ direction to change the value or the translation of the priority drop list in the WEBUI search area.
Can someone know how?
Please help,
Regards,
Ety

Hi
Do you mean you want to change the details that is showing in the drop down list in your search view on web ui.
If so, then you can refer to the following code and reuse it as per your requirement.
Firstly, in your context node's, respective attribute, generate the getter setter methods and add the following pieces of code in get_p and get_v method.
*code in get_p method
CASE iv_property.
WHEN IF_BSP_WD_MODEL_SETTER_GETTER=>FP_FIELDTYPE.
field type: picklist
RV_VALUE =
CL_BSP_DLC_VIEW_DESCRIPTOR=>FIELD_TYPE_PICKLIST.
ENDCASE.
*code in get_v method
DATA: ls_ddlb        TYPE bsp_wd_dropdown_line,
      lt_ddlb        TYPE bsp_wd_dropdown_table.
IF NOT gr_ddlb_status IS BOUND.
    CREATE OBJECT gr_ddlb_status EXPORTING iv_source_type = 'T'.
ENDIF.
    ls_ddlb-key   = 'FERT'.
    ls_ddlb-value = 'FINISHED PRODUCT'.
    INSERT ls_ddlb INTO TABLE lt_ddlb.
    ls_ddlb-key   = 'ROH'.
    ls_ddlb-value = 'RAW MATERIAL'.
    INSERT ls_ddlb INTO TABLE lt_ddlb..
gr_ddlb_status->set_selection_table( it_selection_table = lt_ddlb ).
rv_valuehelp_descriptor = gr_ddlb_status.
Whatever, data is written in quotation marks u2018 u2019 is what we want in the drop down fields to display so that the user can choose from one of them.
Hope this helps.

I am having problems using Firefox with Ebay in the last 10 days. The advanced search link is dropping off the page and there is no way to access it now.

I have been using Firefox and Ebay for at least 12 years with no problems whatsoever. But in the last 10 days I have been having trouble with the Advanced Search link disappearing from the page on Ebay. If I do a search from the Ebay home page it will show the results, but the Advanced Search link (in blue letters) which always used to appear to the right of the Search button is gone. If I click Search again at this point I can see the Advanced Search link appear for a millisecond, but then disappear just as quickly. Also, if I refresh the page the same thing happens. I tried to duplicate this problem with Internment Explorer and it didn't occur, so it appears to be Firefox that is causing this issue. Of course when I contacted Ebay they told me my problem was that I wasn't using Internment Explorer! I love Firefox and do not want to switch!

You can try to clear the cache and cookies to see if that makes a difference:
<h3>Clearing Cache</h3>
#Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
#Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
#Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
#From the details list, check ''Cache'' and uncheck everything else.
#Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
<h3>Clearing Cookies</h3>
#Go to Firefox > Tools > Privacy > Remove Individual Cookies
#Find the site (ebay.com) that's having problems and clear all cookies.
#Restart Firefox
Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.

How can I restore the search bar drop down list and current search engine icon as it was in FF version 33?

Is there a way to restore the search bar from version 33?
I like seeing which search engine I have selected and the ability to change it with a drop down list BEFORE I highlight text, right-click, and select ' Search Google for "xxxx" '
Any way to roll back this latest "improvement"?

If you miss being able to switch search engines without going
crazy with menus, try this out;
'''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/context-search/ Context Search]''' {web link}
Expands the context menu's 'Search for' item into a list of
installed search engines, allowing you to choose the engine
you want to use for each search.

Who is Who - dropdown list for fields in the advance search

Hello:
In the advance search of the Who is Who service, we have the Organization Unit and Cost Center as searching fields.
We can't be able to see the dropdown list for these 2 fields from the Portal.
Do anyone have any idea of what configuration is missing?
Thanks.
Regards,

hi,
according to my knowledge they don't have Unique ID but unique names attached to them.
open Outlook
go to Tools -> Forms -> Design Form -> select Message then right click on 'To' textbox and chose Advance Properties it has a field 'Name' that name can be used for reference in your development.
hope this helps you.

Display the current item in the list without advancing the iteration using

This is my directions.
Display the current item in the list without advancing the iteration using only iterator methods.
I can't seem to figure this one out when the only methods available are hasNext();, next();, hasPrevious();, previous();, add();, remove();. and set();, and nextIndex();. Can someone please give me advice on this one?
Thanks a bunch!!!!

After thinking briefly about an ugly megillah that would detect whether or not you've ever called Iterator.next(), which is what is required for a bulletproof solution, I've decided after looking at the documenation that in fact the problem is not valid.
It's as simple as this: the Javadoc says 'a ListIterator has no current element'.
Tell your professor.

Mandatory drop list w/dependent field displays error on refresh

ADF Business Components 10.1.3.42.70
JHeadstart 10.1.3.3.81
all,
i have a drop list(field 1) that is on a mandatory field and whose initial value is null. i have another field(field 2) which my drop list is dependent on. then i have a third field(field 3) which is dependent on the drop list field. when i try to insert a new record, i select a value for field 2, the page refreshes and i receive a "Selection Required" error message for field 1. this only happens when the group is in table layout and field 1 has a dependent field.
Here's the test case(if you take a default generation from the hr schema employees table w/dropdown lists; jobid(mandatory), managerid, and departmentid should all have dropdown lists assigned to them):
1. add managerid as a depends on item for jobid
2. add jobid as a depends on item for departmentid(or any other field)
3. run the page and click on the add row button
4. change the managerid field value
you should get "- Selection required" error. this is a big problem for us right now bc the depends on is required in our application and we can't figure out a workaround. can someone take a look at this?
thanks in advance,
paul

Paul,
The only way to fix this is by making the "depends on" items optional instead of required, and delegate the required check to the ADF BC layer.
I'll try to explain why:
- a depends on item must have the immediate attribute set to true, so validation of the item and execution of the valueChangeListener will take place in the JSF Apply Request Values Phase. In the valueChangeListener, after updating the underlying model attribute, we directly jump to the render reponse phase, to skip other validations
- If there are multiple items with immediate="true" on the page, then they will all be validated "in sequence" in apply request values phase. So, the first drop down list is validated before the valuechangelistener of the second item fires. If the end user enters data "normally" in sequence, this is usually not a problem, however, in your use case the user first enters a value for the second "depends on" item, and then you get the validation error on the first depends on item.
So, to fix this, change the table item template and remove the required property
