Drop down menu in ADF Faces

Hi,
I want to build drop-down menus in my ADF application to add links to my jspx pages. I also need that my links be security-aware, i.e., they can be hidden according to user roles. Is there any samples/tutorials for this?
Thanks in advance,
S/\EE|)

John,
Thanks. I preferred to have drop-down menus in my application but It seems that I can't use them now because I don't want to use 3rd-party components due to project development scope constraints. What about security? I should hide menu items using EL and 'Rendered' property?
Thanks,
S/\EE|)

  • Filter query based on a value from a drop down menu

    I am using ADFBC/JDev 10.1.3/ADF-faces (JSPX)
    I would like to display a table of data based on a view object and have a drop down menu of values that the user can select from which would filter the table of data. The filter would be applied to a field in the VO. For example, have a JSPX page that shows all employees and have a drop down menu that filters the employees by a specific department with an option to show all departments too in the drop down. I'm not sure if Steve Muench's example #76 (http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/stories/2004/09/23/notYetDocumentedAdfSampleApplications.html) would serve as a basis for this requirement or not.
    Can anybody give me high level guidance on how to do this? Both declaratively and programmatically would be great.
    Thanks,
    Quoc

    I can't get the JSPX page to display the correct data. It's displaying the entire VO and when you try to select Yes or No or All from the drop down menu, it just changes the Active Flag column in the table to whatever you select for the first row only and still displays the rest of the rows in the VO.
    Here's my JSPX code:

  • Error due to drop down menu in the dataTable

    I have a data table which has a drop down menu in one of the table columns. When the drop down menu is disabled, every action in the page works (click on it, and it does what it does). When the drop down menu is enabled, every action (with one exception) in the page does not work (click on it, it refreshes the page, but the action is not fired). I cannot debug the thing because the action is not fired at all.
    The exception is that for buttons that is marked as immediate, it works. I created an inline message, and wire that to the dropdown menu. I do not see any error. Looking into the log file, I do not see anything.
    I was suspecting maybe conversion error. The data value for the drop down menu is integer (I try both setting the convert to integer and nothing). Even there's error in conversion, there should be error message showing up (in the inline message box).
    So, again, how do I diagnos this, and to find out what is going on?
    Thank you very much.
    Vh.

    Thank you for your attention.

    I'm a hobbyist! "Daddy does movies", enthusiastic about the -zillions of features, tools like FCPX and Motion5 offer! I'm no designer, no engineer, no 'pro'. My goals are sky-high, results more down-to-earth
    This is no request for help, just to share my … quest for a 'simple' effect. Or feature… Or box.-
    In hope, it helps YOU to solve your problems…
    The Issue
    Simple: I wanted to create my very own 'title' template for FCPX. Concept: a lil' animation, the two teams logos reveal a lower third, showing the actual score. Plus, an insert showing the scorer (=my kids love to see themselve in such 'sports graphics' )
    Usually, I 'manufacture' such graphics as single Motion-Projects. This time, my goal was a template, my kids slaughtered in the first season's game the other team by 11:1 (which is in soccer…  a goal-fest) To 'built' each Title manually as individual Projects would spend too much time. I needed a template! … so, step #1: using a Dropzone for opponents logo - easy. Animating - been there, done that, easy.-
    But that 'show players face&name' … 18 team-members… wouldn't it be nice to have some 'drop down menu'?
    How to accomplish that?
    The Manual, with all respect, is written for experts. Describing ALL options in one sentence. I need a cookbook, step-by-step-instruction … My preferred source of imagination, MacBreakStudio/rippletraining/Mark Spencer, hasn't done a tutorial for 'drop downs' yet.-
    My guts told me, it has something to do with 'rigs' …
    The Rig
    I dragged my folder with player-pics into my Motion5 project; there, I could check/uncheck each player. But I wanted these 'boxes' avail in FCPX, I wanted to 'publish' this check-list. Trying 'tis&'tat, I noticed, I can apply to the opacity of each player-pic a Rig. And a Checkbox-rig - hey, that close!!
    … soooo?
    No 'checkbox' in FCPX after publishing my title. No list after publishing to FCPX! What have I done wrong?
    The Snapshots
    I was confused by the meaning of  'snapshot'! … and since it made "ping!" in my head, it's so simple:
    As I would done it in a 'manufactured', single Motion project, I have to select each team-member, create a New Snapshot, set opacity to show only this player; create another New Snapshot, showing a diff. player. … and so on, and so on.
    … for sure, for convenience I renamed each Snapshot to each Player's name…
    In my amateurish mind, I had the imagination, Motion5 would offer me a 'behavior' (or 'filter' or whatever) to create checkboxes; or drop-downs; … uhm, well it does, but for me the work-flow is back-to-front: first creating a status-quo, then tell 'this is option#1/#2/#3' … I had the idea, you can select first an 'empty box', then drag its content into it. I've learned: professional don't tic this way.
    Eighteen Snapshots later …
    The Result
    After publishing my hand-crafted Title, it appears like that in FCPX:
    The Dropzone is to apply the actual contestants team-logo; the 'Title' is the score, just type the number; and - finally! - I had my drop-down-menu, listing all players,  for simple selection.- Me happy … !
    In movin' images:
    http://youtu.be/wIeu1cVMu94
    As mentioned before: the design isn't meant to win a price; and most probably, there are 'shorter ways to Rome' … so, if any of you 'pros' like to comment or recomment a 'better', in terms of 'easier' way, don't hesitate to teach me!
    K.

    Motion-guru Marc Spencer from rippletraining.com has an episode upon Rigging at MacBreak Studio
    MacBreak Studio - Episode 151: Setting up a Rig in Motion 5 for Final Cut Pro X    
    … I'm no expert (as you notice in my first post ), but I'm really overwhelmed by the endless options, esp. in correlation with FCPX… on first sight, 'rigging' looked like 'bundled color sliders' to me, but by creating your very own drop-down menus you can create extremely powerful tools, handcrafted for your very own needs.
    For sport-reports, with its tons of statistics and inserts, you can create a box of 'title genrators' - once done, multiple times used, and extreeeemly fast then.
    … And when a 'nnob' like me manages it, it is really no rocket-science…
    Kudos to the DevTeam at Cupertino!!!

  • Drop Down Menu Opening another File Script

    I am using a drop down menu to generate other information in different selection. I received great help before but have encountered another problem.
    I have attached a example file.
    Once the user has selected the offense title and it generates the above information, I
    was wondering if you can script it to open another adobe form contained in the script i'm already using.. For example when
    user selects the Abandon Endanger child criminal negligence, (I already made this complaint
    in adobe) it would open the file.

    not 100% sure if your after a hidden subform to show up after a certain selection is made or if you want the user taken to a totally different form
    e.g. click option 4 and get a new document opened in you face - im guessing the second option in whihc case I think you should be able to do this by using the app.openDoc("examplename.pdf") command
    not one ive used myself but it should work much the same as the app.launchURL command which is usually quite stable
    so you would have some code on your preferred event
    to say something like
    if (this.rawValue = "whatever value you want to trigger action";
    app.openDoc("examplename.pdf")
    alternatively if you other form is also online you could probably trigger it using the app.launchURL function - although the app.openDoc is meant to be the appropriate function for this type of thing
    hope that helps - if not just clarify what your after and well try again!
    cheers

  • CSS Drop Down Menu Problem (only in IE)

    Hi Folks,
    I have just added a new drop down menu and it seems to work perfectly in every other browser except IE.
    In IE the cursor makes the next menu item along drop down and not the one that's hovered over.
    I have removed the jquery script and the same problem occurs, so I reckon it must be a CSS problem. Here's the CSS code in case anyone has any ideas what the problem is.
    Any suggestions would be hugely appreciated cos I can't figure it out .
    Cheers

    it's all on a local set up right non but I will try to pop it up and post a link.
    The symptoms are easy to describe though. When you hover over a top level menu item, the list drops down under the link directly to the right.The positioning isn't random, it is exactly in line, just under the wrong heading.
    In every other browser it seems to be fine.

  • Is there a way to create a drop down menu with an automatic answer dependent on what is chosen?

    Is there a way to create a drop down menu with an automatic answer dependent on what is chosen? An if-then statement perhaps?  I am looking to add over 100 drop down options and would like to have a message automatically pop up depending one which option they chose.  Thank you.

    Hi,
    You would use the skip logic to conditionally show form items based on the selection within the drop-down menu. Here's a link to a description of the feature in our help documentation:

    Hi Bruce and fruhulda,
    ok, I found the keyboard viewer, it only shows the traditional symbol 'return'.  something like a sideway u-turn continued with the arrow under.  This is the Canadian or US keyboard.

  • Trying to create a drop down menu in numbers...please help

    Hi
    Can anyone indicate how to go about creating a drop-down menu.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Meela,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Numbers 08 forum.
    Check page 66 of the Numbers User Guide supplied with your copy of iWork. The guide refers to them as "pop-up" menus, so a search using "pop-up" will be more successful than one using "drop down".
    Essentially the process is:
    Click on the cell to select it.
    Open the Inspector and choose Cell Format (icon is a cell containing 42)
    Click the Cell Format menu and select Pop-up Menu from the bottom of the list.
    Double click an item in the list to edit it. Click the + button to add an item, the - button to delete the selected item.
    Done.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • Contacts drop-down menu blocked by on screen keyboard in text messages

    Whenever I draft a new text message I put the cursor in the contact box and type the first letter of the name of the person I am trying to contact.  If I have more than 3 people in my phone whose names start with that letter, the drop down menu becomes partially obscured by the on screen keyboard.  If I attempt to scroll down on the menu, it selects whomever I happen to press.  My attempts to minimize the keyboard have been futile.  I understand I can work around this by going into contacts and selecting someone to text, but the problem is pretty aggravating.  Please help!
