Displaying Images In Form Component

Hi
How do I display an employee image in a form Componet, if it is located in file server??

Many Thanks

Walid,
If you want to display an image in a form it should be "physically" uploaded to the table on which your form is based. The only supported datatypes now are BLOB and ORDIMAGE (interMedia image).
Thanks,

Display image in forms & reports developed on windows and deployed on Unix

Hi,
We are upgrading from Forms and reports 6i to forms10g.
We need to insert image in forms and reports. Recompile and deploy on unix server.
So can anyone let me know the exact steps to create jar file containing images, where to place the jar file.
Corresponding folder, file and configuration changes required on windows and unix.
Av.

Hi Frank,
thanks for the link it helped me in understanding how images work for forms.
But my real concern is how this will work in reports?
As we dont have any reportsweb.cfg nor any java path for reports?
Can you help me in understanding how to embed image in reports that will be displayed even after porting the report on unix oas.

Need help displaying images with List component for Flash CS4 (ActionScript 3.0)

Hi folks:
I am an inexperienced user of Flash CS4 Pro (v10.0.2). I am attempting to use the List component with ActionScript 3.0 to make a different image display when a user clicks each item in a list.
I did find a tutorial that showed me how to make different text display using a dynamic text box and the following ActionScript:
MyList.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, ShowSelectedItem);
function ShowSelectedItem(event:Event):void {
ListText.text=MyList.selectedItem.data;
...where My List is the instance of the List component and ListText is the dynamix text box. In this case, the user clicks an item in the list, defined by the label value in the dataProvider parameter of the List component, and text displays as defined in the data value in the dataProvider parameter.
However, as I mentioned to start, what I really want to do is make images display instead of text. Can anyone provide me the steps to do this?
I appreciate your help (in advance)!!
Cindy

Hi...thanks for responding! I was planning on using images from the Library, but if there is a better way to do it, I'm open. So far, I just have text in the data property. This is part of my problem. I don't know what I need to put in the data value for an image to display. Do I just put the image file name and Flash will know to pull it from the Library? Do I need to place the images on the stage on different frames? I apologize for the "stupid user" questions, but as you can tell, I'm a newbie.
Appreciate your patience and any help you can offer!

Displaying images in forms and reports

Hello,
I would like to upload images into a table and then display them in a form or a report along with other details with that image. In essence I want another column along with a current table and that colomn should be able to store images.
I have not used images in Oracle before so blobs are new, but if you could please tell me how to go about finding the answer.
thanks

Display image in Forms 10.1.2

Forms 10gr2 using Webutil.
I have an multi row block, each record has an image item. I want to populate this image at runtime depending on the values of the rest of the record.
Problem I have is that the images (GIF files) are not in the database, they're in a jar file (image.jar) which is uploaded to the client browser at runtime. How do I access these images and then populate my image item with it?
Read_Image_File looks on the AS which I want to avoid. I can use Webutils version but how do I access it in the JAR file?

Hi,
Steps:
1、Create table in DB for image files 's path.
2、Pack the images into a JAR file(For example:Icons.jar).
3、Copy the JAR file into your path: Disk:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\java
4、Config formsweb.cfg file in Disk:\DevSuiteHome_1\forms\server\formsweb.cfg:
# Forms applet archive setting for JInitiator
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,Icons.jar
# Forms applet archive setting for other clients (Sun Java Plugin, Appletviewer, etc)
archive=frmall.jar,Icons.jar
Maybe It is helpful for you!

Here you go..Just follow these steps blindly and you are done.
1) Create a year prompt with presentation variable as pv_year
2) Create a report say Mid report with year column selected 3 times
- Put a filter of pv_year presentation variable on first year column with a default value say @{pv_year}{2008}
- Rename the second time column say YEAR+1 and change the fx to CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)+1
- Rename the second time column say YEAR-1 and change the fx to CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)-1
Now when you will run Mid Report, this will give you a records with value as 2008 2009 2007
3) Create your main report with criteria as Year and Measure col
- Change the fx for year column as CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)
- Now put a filter on year column with Filter based on results of another request and select these:
Relationship = greater than or equal to any
Saved Request = Browse Mid Report
Use values in Column = YEAR-1
- Again,put a filter on year column with Filter based on results of another request and select these:
Relationship = less than or equal to any
Saved Request = Browse Mid Report (incase it doesn't allow you to select then select any other request first and then select Mid Report)
Use values in Column = YEAR+1
This will select Year > = 2007 AND Year < = 2009. Hence the results will be for year 2007,2008,2009
This will 100% work...

Image is not displayed in APEX Form with APEX utility Function

Dear APEX experts,
As i am new to the oracle apex development. I have just created the basic employee information form in which i upload the photograph of the employee. The photograph gets uploaded but it does not display properly. I have already referred the sample database application to display the image. Moreover, i have followed the same steps as it is used to display the product image in that application. Still i am unable to get result. I am getting following output:
<img src="apex_util.get_blob_file?a=35682&s=101496289174102&p=15&d=10639237623242912156&i=10639236703270912154&p_pk1=21&p_pk2=&p_ck=FCA12832591A1C706D76FDD589E551A2" />
Please help me seniors to solve this issue. How to display the image using this utility.

Hence , in my application the code is not rendered perfectly and syntax is not completed.
following characters are rendered like this.: &lt , &quot , &gt , &amp.
So, is this the reason of not displaying the image???Yes.
To get a Display Item to render as HTML, in the item definition Security section set Escape special characters to No.
For a report column, ensure the Display Text As report column attribute is Standard Report Column rather than the default Display as Text (escape special characters).
Use a Display Image item and declarative BLOB support instead of this clunky manual method.

Images are not displaying in the forms run time.

Hello All,
I am using forms 10.1.2.3.0 and database 11g in the windows XP platform.
I am not able to see the images in the buttons at the run time. I have done the following setup for the same but still I am not able to display images in the buttons. I have gone through all the previous threads for the same. Can any body suggest where I am doing the wrong?
1) Created one JAR file with the below command putting all the gif files in a folder (All the GIF files are in lower case). Kept this jar file in the forms/java folder. (When I am extracting the JAR file getting all the gif files and one more folder META-INF).
rem====
jar cvf icon.jar *.gif
rem=====
2) Modified the formsweb.cfg file as follows.
imageBase=codeBase
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,icon.jar
3) In the buttons property Iconic = Yes and Iconicfile name = icon_print (gif file name).
4) Modified the Registry.dat file in the path "forms\java\oracle\forms\registry\Registry.dat" as follows.
default.icons.iconpath=forms/java
default.icons.iconextension=gif
Start the OC4J instance, and run the application, but still not able to see the images in the buttons. After I modified the regedit file I am able to see the images in the design time but not in the run time.
Any thing more needed to do the same. All the suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
SUN

Display Images using READ_IMAGE_FILE in 10g forms

Hello all, i have a simple question that I'm trying to resolve really quick.
I've created a field on a form in 10g forms that is of IMAGE type. I've given it a name and has given it a FILE_TYPE of GIF.
I've put some code in a POST-QUERY trigger of a block that calls the READ_IMAGE_FILE command, where I enter the filename, file_type, and block.item name. When I leave the path off the image name, forms runtime acts like it cannot find it. I get an FRM message displayed at runtime that says it "Cannot read image file". However, if I put the full path (like something pointing to a hard-coded directory on my C drive where the image file resides), the image displays fine at runtime.
I added the images to my JAR file where I have other images stored so they get opened at runtime under the ORACLE_HOME/forms/java directory. I was thinking that when I gave the filename, runtime would know to pull it out of there. But obviously, that's not what is happening.
Has anyone got ideas on what I could do to get the READ_IMAGE_FILE to display the image without hard-coding a path in?
Any help is appreciated!
Regards,
Chris

Here are some things to check:
1) Alll the images in the JAR file should have the same extension
2) In formsweb.cfg, include the JAR file in the ARCHIVE parameter and set imageBase=codebase
3) In registry.dat, leave iconpath blank and set iconextension=gif
4) In your READ_IMAGE_FILE call, use URL as the file type and don't use the extension on the file name. So if the image in your JAR is my_picture.gif, it would be something like READ_IMAGE_FILE('my_picture','URL','myblock.my_image_item');
If it still doesn't work, enable the Java console and when it comes up, enter the number 5 in the console to enable the highest level of logging. Then have a look at the console to see if the JAR is getting downloaded and where it's attempting to read the image from.

Displaying images in HTML Forms inside Servlets

          Dear friends
          How are you?
          I am developing Servlets in WebGain Studio Pro V4.1 VisualCafe
          V4.1 to display dynamic HTML forms with embedded
          images (*.jpg and *.gif).
          Please see the following sample code -
          "<DIV ID=\"Logo\" STYLE=\"position:absolute; left: 4%; top: 4%;
          width: 25%; height: 12%; z-index:1; visibility:visible\">" +
          "<IMG SRC=\"FigLogo.gif\" WIDTH=\"100%\" HEIGHT=\"100%\">" +
          "</DIV>"
          Then I deploymed servlets to BEA WLS 6.0 by including Servlets
          in the Web.xml file. However, I do not see the images when
          viewed in IE5.0 browser.
          I appreciate all comments and suggestions.
          Thanking you

          Dear Friends
          How are you?
          I moved all images (*.jpg, *.gif) to the subdirectory
          /myDomain/applications/DefaultWebApp_myServer/images
          and they are displaying now in the servlets with HTML forms.
          Thanking you

HOW TO DISPLAY PICTURE IMAGE ON FORM - I HAVE THE SOLUTION NOW!!

Hi Kiran,
I am very grateful to you and all who contributed to find a solution to my problem. I was stacked at the Page Definition properties in relation to the tutorial. I spent several overnights and later realized that the edit that would activate the download link is not in the SOURCE category but rather in the SETTINGS with 11g edition. When I changed the setting I had it perfectly. Thanks so much to all of you. I really enjoy the Apex Forum though I am new in Oracle.
Howbeit; what should I do to have the picture always displayed on the form so that whenever the particular form is opened the image would be seen? Looking forward for the solution.

As I said; I am very new in database developing and also using Oracle. Please help me in how I can display image on my database. What should I do? Which property category should I do the settings and with what code?

A component is not able to display Image UIElements anymore

Dear Developers,
I am discovering today that a component that I have developped is not able to display the Image UIElement anymore. In the workbench, the element is displayed correctly ( it has no binding of its attributes to the context and the URL of the source is static).
Its parent container is the ROOTUIELEMENTCONTAINER and it is visible (all parameters are the default).
No Image can be displayed anymore. This is very strange. My other UIelements in the view are displayed correctly and seem to be working nicely (events, actions, methods calls ...).
Can you help me ?
Best Regards,
Olivier MATT
PS: I tried accessing the same URL with a Image UIElement in another component and it works fine. It seems that the generated coding Javascript/HTML is invalid (when I try to display the sourcecode of the application/frame, IE informs me that the source contains errors). For Information, I am running Netweaver SP 11.

Hi again,
I think I have found where my problem is. I have right clicked on th eimage and try to set some settings in the browser while using the application (on the displayed image).
Now the image is not displayed anymore (according to the settings) but I dont know where I can delete these setting values. I tried removing my cookies but it did not help.
Any idea?
Sincerely,
Olivier MATT
