Dynamic browser language setting

Hi,
I need some information on internationalization.
Let me explain the issue..
In my application I need both English and Arabic views. It is possible to Change the language through internationalization.
But one more issue is there for Arabic language. I hope u all know that Arabic letters are from right to left. So I have to change the Browser Language settings also to Arabic..
But in my application it should be handled by an event. If u click Arabic button, you should get Arabic browsers and if English you should get English Browsers.
Can anyone help me on this dynamic browser language setting?
Thanks

Hello Alex,
Did you follow Nibu`s instructions from here how to set languages for webdynpro object ?
final String locale = wdContext.currentContextElement().getLanguage_selection();
try
final String url = WDURLGenerator.getApplicationURL(
wdComponentAPI.getApplication().getDeployableObjectPart(),Collections.singletonMap("sap-locale", locale));
WDClientUser.forceLogoffClientUser(url);
catch (final WDURLException ex)
wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportException(new WDNonFatalException(ex), false);

Browser Language Setting not effective in Application Module

I am using "LANGUAGE = SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','LANG')" in WHERE clause to fetch List data based on User's Language. I saw this in JDev 11g's Fusion Order Demo sample.
It seems that i always get data where LANGUAGE='US', as my AM's locale is always set to en_US. If i set my browser to have "fr" (French) Language, i see that UI Hints for Entity based view objects are displayed in French , but the List data keeps coming back in English.
I also kept some debug statements in prepareSession of AM and i see that "ADFContext.getCurrent().getEnvironment().getRequestLocale()" changes as per Browser Language , but "session.getLocale()" is always set to en_US. If I change AM configuration for jbo.default.language and jbo.default.country , then "session.getLocale()" is changed accordingly. Shouldn't this Locale change based on what user's browser is configured.?

Dynamic (session) language setting not working in external ITS v6.20

Hi everybody,
We have upgraded from ITS 2.0 to 6.20 patchlevel 35. In the service (srvc) file following parameters have been set;
~languages tr, en
~language tr
So we want our users to log on in Turkish (tr) language, but they have to be able to switch to English (en) after the logon.
This could be done in the 2.0 version without any problem using the appropriate querystring like
http://.../~flN0YXRlPTExNTguMDA0LjA0LjA0?~language=en
But it's not possible anymore in 6.20. I have checked the releates notes and forum posts, but still no solution. The intersting point is, we can switch the language at the logon page, but not after the logon page anymore. (following links work :
http://.../wgate/zabc/!?~language=en
http://.../wgate/zabc/!?~language=tr
Has anyone got an idea?
Best regards,
Ozcan.

Hello Ozcan,
That is not the correct usage of ~languages and ~language. The ~language parameter is used to specify the language for the service. There should not be a way to change it. The ~languages parameter should specify which languages the user is allowed to select from during logon. Obviously, if ~language is set then the ~languages parameter is of no use.
If it was possible to do what you have specified before then it was not intended.

How to determine browser language settings?

Hi,
i want to create a flash chart diagram in APEX 4.0 with dynamic column names (series name={here the dynamic column header}) depending from the browser language setting. How can i determine the browser language setting in the flash charts sql?
Or is there any other way how i can create dynamic column header for this purpose?
Regards
Stephan

Hello,
Just wanted to remind you that APEX has a substitution string called BROWSER_LANGUAGE that holds the current browser language. No need to define extra application item and computation.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14373_01/appdev.32/e11838/concept.htm#sthref218
Also, if working with multi-lingual is a major motive in your application, you should learn how to use the APEX translation mechanism. It will save you the need to define your own language mapping tables and a lot of ‘CASE’ statements. It can be a real time saver. You can start here:

Language setting of browser and Application Primary Language

Hi,
my browser is currently set to German, that's why the APEX builder is also displayed in German. Brrr, I like development environments when they are not displayed in English - sometimes you don't understand this translations :-)
But my problem now is that I have created an application and set the Application Primary Language to English (en).
I would now assume that all the text APEX is creating during wizard actions will be created in the Application Primary Language and not in the language the browser is currently set to. But all the text is created in the browser language!!!
I think that's not a good behavior, because if you have a multi user/multi country development, the developers have to change there browser settings so that we get a consistent application. But to archive that I have set the primary language for the application.
Patrick
Check out my APEX-blog: http://inside-apex.blogspot.com

Patrick,
The resulting "defaults" strings which are displayed/used in the wizards should be Estonian, because that's my primary language of the application. Does it really make sense to show them in English/German, ...? Because the result language of the application should be Estonian.A) And how exactly will the Builder obtain the Estonian translation of these strings or of the translation of these strings into any of the hundreds of other languages we know nothing about?
I think the answer is that the Builder should maintain an awareness of the language setting of the application being developed. During the generation of possibly translatable text, the wizards should use a translated message for that text/language if: a) the language is one of the ten languages in which we make the Builder application available, and b) the developer has installed that "language version" of the Builder application (even if they are running a different language version at the time of text generation). If either condition does not hold, then the text should be generated in the Builder's primary language (en-us).
The builder is no genius (or not yet ;-) ), so that's up to the developers when they are changing the primary language during development.B) I don't understand your point (what is up to the developers?). The point I was trying to make was that even if we concede that generated text from the Builder should ideally be in the language that is the current primary language setting of the application being developed, the Builder would not be able to make that accommodation during the execution of the portion of the Create Application wizard that creates pages (with generated text in some language) because this occurs beore the language selection is made. Of course, the answer is that the Create Application wizard should be changed to allow the language to be selected before any text can be generated. Wizards would then be able to generate text in the appropriate language according to the rules proposed in (A).
Why does the builder/wizard not use substitution strings (eg. #APPLY_CHANGES#, #NO_DATA_FOUND#) for this type of default text instead?This would result in "code" in areas of the metadata from which translation strings would be extracted into the XLIFF file. Translators would ignore this code so the ultimate translated application (and the primary) would need a repository in which to hold the desired text for each language to be supported and a method with which to dynamically lookup the translated text at runtime. I don't believe the current architecture supports this (apart from the fact that we don't currently do it this way) and I think the performance implications could be significant, but I could be mistaken on both points.
Wouldn't it help to translate the application too?I don't understand this suggestion.
Thanks for your input.

Translation problem - using browser language

Hi,
I have an application with french as the primary language and english as the secondary. To switch between both, i'm using an application item.
When i'm on the application in french (application item set to french) the login page shows correctly using the app item value. But when i'm trying to branch to a secured page, if i'm not connected, i'm redirected to the login page.
This is ok, but the page is displayed in french AND in english at the same time. Dynamic content is displayed using the app item which is ok, but not the page items and buttons. They are displayed using my browser language instead of the app item.
The problem seems to come from the "Session not valid page" field in the "Authentication Scheme" which I set to the login page.
Thank you
Patrick

Date/locale problems; first day of week / browser language

Hi,
I've been trying to create an event calendar PL/SQL portlet. My problem is that it reacts to browser language or something, so it goes all screwy when viewed with browsers in another language.
How can I force my portlet to be finnish and finnish ONLY. I DO NOT want it to change (first day of the week monday or sunday) depending on what browser the user is using. I have tried to use the third parameter to to_char(p_date, 'dd.mm.yyyy','NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE = Finnish') in all places but it has no effect. Database locale is correct ( I think, I'm not the admin) but still it happens. Chrome, Firefox, IE show different stuff depending on the browser language.
I'll admit it is not the most elegant coding ever (if it were I would have taken this into account and dealt with it!) but is there any way to just force my dates and date variabes to be finnish, period.
Edited by: Baguette on Mar 9, 2010 10:37 AM

Got it.
For public sessions, Portal will indeed investigate the browser language. Pending on the browser language, Portal can display in specific languages. Only when users login and set a language explicitly, will we maintain the language setting, unless the user switches browsers again.
The Portal DAD settings will indeed overwrite your system wide setting of NLS_TERRITORY. The dads.conf will have something like AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8. If you want to overrule this in your portlet, you need to find a way of overruling the NLS_TERRITORY in the session. This can be done with dbms_session.set_nls('nls_territory','FINLAND');
e.g. for my previous example :
declare
date1 varchar2(2000);
date2 varchar2(2000);
date3 varchar2(2000);
begin
select to_char(sysdate,'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') today into date1 from dual ;
select to_char(sysdate+ (1-to_char(sysdate,'D')),'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') into date2 from dual ;
select to_char(sysdate+ (7-to_char(sysdate,'D')),'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') into date3 from dual ;
htp.p('Territory set to AMERICAN');
htp.hr;
htp.p('Today : '||date1);
htp.br;
htp.p('First day of the week : '||date2);
htp.br;
htp.p('Last day of the week : '||date3);
htp.br;
htp.p('Territory set to FINLAND');
htp.hr ;
dbms_session.set_nls('nls_territory','FINLAND');
select to_char(sysdate,'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') today into date1 from dual ;
select to_char(sysdate+ (1-to_char(sysdate,'D')),'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') into date2 from dual ;
select to_char(sysdate+ (7-to_char(sysdate,'D')),'Dy DD-Mon-YYYY') into date3 from dual ;
htp.hr;
htp.p('Today : '||date1);
htp.br;
htp.p('First day of the week : '||date2);
htp.br;
htp.p('Last day of the week : '||date3);
end;

Problem in Language Setting

Hi,
I have changed the language to German <globalization culture="de-DE"/>
but i can see the changes only in the Active viewer not in the report legend.
Pls provide solution.
Regards,
GPS

hi,
I have successfully exported and imported translations.
It is also working fine but the problem is with "edit globalization attributes".
In this we have to set primary language to the application
and there are 5 options as:
1) No NLS (Application not translated)
2)Use Application primary Language
3) Browser (use browser language preference)
4) Application preference(use_FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE)
5)Item Preference?(use item containing preference)
Now when i am making primary language as italian the application is running successfully but that is wrong because app. primary language should be English in which it is made.
Now when i am choosing 3rd option (browser based) the application is not showing images(or templates) only it
is displaying the translated text.
So please tell me how to set these settings so that the application can be run successfully in both the languages.
Please kindly help me in this.
thanks

How to make dynamic actions using Set Value work in all browsers?

I’m having a cross-browser incompatibility issue with dynamic actions using Set Value. The dynamic action works like a charm on Chrome but has no effect on either IE or Firefox. The code in oracle.apex.com and here are the credentials:
Workspace: DDBA
Username: [email protected]
Password: redtruck12
These code is on page 3 and here are the details:
There are two report lists (Standard and Special) and some of the reports require additional information supplied in either select lists or text boxes.
If the user selects a Standard report requiring a select list/text box, then the dynamic action sets the value of Special Reports to NULL (and vice-versa).
The dynamic action is to prevent a simultaneous selection of both the Standard and Special reports. To see how it works on Chrome, do this:
Run Page 3
Select the ‘Report for Search Criteria’ option from the Standard Report list. A ‘Search Criteria’ text box appears
Select the ‘Report by Release’ option from the Special Reports list. A select list appears and the ‘Search Criteria’ text box disappears.
If you do the same things on IE or Firefox, the text box does not disappear.

Hi,
Things are going wrong with setting the item values to NULL. If you check your session state, you'll see that in chrome your items values indeed will be set to null, but in firefox they won't.
Also I've noticed that you don't reset the other input fields, so their values persist in the session state. Since you submit your page every time you change one of the report select lists, this might lead to unexpected behaviour. Lastly, I've noticed you use a sql exists expression to manage the display/hide of your page items. A condition of type "Value of expression 1 = expression 2" causes less overhead as you don't need to switch to the db sql engine for every item to validate.
I'd suggest you rethink your specs and try to create:
- One dynamic action (since a value of standard select excludes the value of special select, and vice versa)
- Set the values for hidden items to null, also in session state
- Use a refresh of region as extra event in your dynamic action, instead of submitting your page for every change.

Language setting problem in globalization of application

hello,
I had an assignment of Globalizing a application from English to Italian language(based on browser language preference)
I have successfully translated my htmldb application to Italian from english.
i.e I exported the XLIFF file of the application and than translated it and uploaded it and then published the application.
The translation is working absolutely fine when I set the Primary language to Italian.
But thats not the proper way as the Primary language should be English.
But if I set the primary language to English and set the browser language to Italian it shows the translated text properly but the templates for the region and items are
not displayed.
I am not able to make it out.
I have followed all the steps given in Oracle HTMLDB 2.0 user documentation
(Chapter 15), but
am not able to work it out.
Please kindly help me.
Thanks in advance.

Finding browser's setting in WD4A

Hi,
Is there a way to find the browser's setting from WD for ABAP, eg the browser type (IE or Firefox), most importantly the default language setting etc. from the browser launching the WD application ? Will need these information to code some logic.
Any hints is very much appreciated. Thanks.
Regards
Kir Chern

Hi,
the language settings do not depend on the browser alone, see the last section in this documentation about [url parameters|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/7b/fb57412df8091de10000000a155106/content.htm] and the order of evaluation.

Combing Browser Language & App Prefered Language

Hello.
Thanks to the tips on this forum, I've been able to successfully set the language preference at the application site: (using HTMLDB_UTIL.SET_PREFERENCE ('FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE',:P100_LANG,:FLOW_USER);)
Now I would ideally like to do 2 items:
a) Display current language.
&FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE. just seems to display null
b) Set the default language to new users from their browser language. (Is there a variable to pull the browser language at startup?)
Thanks,
Erik

What doesn't work? The value of the preference is not set across distinct sessions?exactly
Is FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE an item in your application?no, I'm sorry for posting this question here, but this is the nearest I could find to documentation about 'per user' settings. My question isn't related to translation, just trying to store a page item value accross sessions.
Persistence of item values is maintained in the database and is associated with a user. Cookies are not used.That's what I thought... which worries me, because it seems to work in IE but not in Firefox. Anyone have that problem?

Diffrent language set on Public Conn when launching Viewer

Hi !
I'm launching Discoverer Viewer through Discoverer portlet using public connection.
When i created the connection i set the Locale to use other language than English but when i access the Viewer it takes the default language - English.
I made another test where i try to connect directly through Discoverer Viewer page, i set the same locale language and it worked ok.
On the client machine i set the regional settings, i added the language to the browser but no success.
Does somebody have any idea how i can make this working ?
Thank you,
Dani

HI
It seems that is a bug; this i found on metalink
"Bug reproduced. It looks like we do not use the language set in the public (or sso private) connection, but use the language from the publisher.
Currently the provider supports only 1 language in which
portlets were published. "
In this case i have to wait for another patch/version.
Regards,
Dani

Dynamic action with set value on date field

Hi,
I'm using APEX 4.02
I'm trying to calculate the age based on the date of birth dynamically on a form. I'm trying to do this with a (advanced)dynamic action with set value.
I'm able to get this kind of action working based on a number field etc, but NEVER on a date field.
I've read all posts on this subject but so far no solution. Even if I try to simply copy the value over to another date field or typecast it to a string ( to_char function ) it does not work. So for me the problem seems to be in the source field being a date field.
I've tried using the source value as is in a select statement :
select :P33_GEBOORTEDATUM from dual;
and also type casted based on the date format :
select TO_DATE(:P33_GEBOORTEDATUM,'DD-MON-YYYY') from dual
but still no luck.
On the same form I don't have any issues as long as the calculation is based on number fields, but as soon as I start using dates all goes wrong.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If you need any extra info just let me know.
Cheers
Bas
b.t.w My application default date format is DD-MON-YYYY, maybe this has something to do with the issue .... ?

Hi,
Create a dynamic action named "set age" with following values.
Event: Change
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_DATE_OF_BIRTH
Action: Set value
Fire on page load: TRUE
Set Type: PL/SQL Expression
PL/SQL Expression: ROUND( (SYSDATE - :P1_DATE_OF_BIRTH)/365.24,0)
Page items to submit: P1_DATE_OF_BIRTH
Selection Type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_AGE
