Dynamic Lov in Tabular form

Hi,
I'm creating select lists in tabular forms
and 2 select lists in it.
I'd like to use 1st list as a filter of 2nd list dynamically.
How can I do that?
Please advise me.
I found one tips(http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=18326:54:10017106699293281168::::P54_ID:1282) and I tried to do it but it didnt work...
Thanks

Hi,
There's several postings in the forum on how to do this, so if this message doesn't make sense, search the forum some, maybe for my Name?
If I remember correctly, using the following as an example, to something similar. This is based on a country and state lookup.
field 1 (:P1_country):
select distinct country from lu_location;
field 2 (:P1_state):
select distinct state from lu_location
where country = :P1_country;
Make :P1_country a 'Select List with Submit', and it 'should' work. I'm at home, so I don't have access to my database.

  • Dynamic LOV FOR TABULAR FORM 6i

    Hi,
    I have tabular form of two Items(ID,DESC) and I want to Populate LOV for item(ID) every record
    and record_Group & SQL statments are stored in DB.
    ACTION: when query in POST-QUERY Trigger get for every record in tabular form -- the stored SQL-Statment from table then put it into dynamic record_group and populate the dynamic LOV.
    Please advice,
    Thanks in Advance.

    OK daniel
    This form used for get reports
    then header get the name of Report (Table-A) (report_ID),(report_desc).
    then details for get the Parameters will send to report builder (Table-B) (detail_id),(report_id),(sql_stm).
    so parameters may be need for example stock code so this record need to query from stocks table to get stock code and stock name.
    next record for item Code so need to query from Items table to get the Item code and Item name
    another report for employees so the user enter report code then when query and get in details block employee code and employee name.
    so the lov will check if this record have query sql-statment or not if have execute it in the record_group then in lov
    then go to the next record if sql_stm is null then no lov in this record and so on.
    thanks..

  • PopUp LOVs in tabular forms

    Hi,
    I've discovered a problem using Popup LOVs in tabular forms, whereby on selecting a value from the LOV the key value is displayed on the form instead of the display value.
    Having searched this forum it would appear I'm not the only one who has encountered this problem, but I've had no luck in finding an explanation for this behaviour or a solution / workaround.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks
    Andrew.

    A Popup LOV is just a normal Input field with the option to popup another window, select a value and return that value to the field. On the popup window, the "display" value is shown to the user to make it easier to select the right value, but the "return" value is returned to the field as this is the value that needs to be stored on the database.
    As a normal input field, it can only hold and, therefore, display one value.
    Select Lists, on the other hand, store the "return" value but show the "display" value because that is how Select Lists are designed to operate.
    You can show the "display" value in a second field for data that is already on the database by using the "Display as Text (based on LOV, does not save state)", based on the same database column as for the Popup LOV field and using the same LOV table.
    However, the only way to get a "display" value for a new/edited record would be to either submit the page or design your own popup which can pass values back into two fields. Either way, you need two fields.
    Unless someone else has found a way around this?????

  • Dynamic Action on tabular form: to auto set value for all changes rows

    Hi All:
    I am using APEX4.2.3 and I am not very familar with JQUERY or Javascript.
    I am having a tabular form to support Update and Delete action. The tabular form has 4 columns:
    Column A: ID                      (Number)     : Read-only column
    column B: Name                 (Varchar2)   : Editable
    Column C: Age                    (Number)     : Editable
    Column D: ChangeFlag      (Varchar2)   : Read-only column                             ==> however, I want this column been automatically upldated by my APEX application
    Here is the requirement: First user update Column B, or C or both for # of rows; then user click "Save Change" button. For ALL updated rows, I need to automatically update Column D with below logic:
    For a given row,
                   IF Column D IS NULL  THEN
                         set value = 'M'                           -- M means modified
                   ELSE --- column D has a value already
                        IF last character of Column D is 'M', THEN
                               don't do anything;
                        ELSE
                              set value of D = existing value + 'M'                       (here + means concatenate
                       END IF;
                END IF;
    I thought this can be done by creating dynamic action on tabular form ... I have researched this on this forum and can't find a good match example ..
    I know I can implement this using a DB trigger; however, I want to learn if this can be achived via Dynamic Action.
    Thanks!

  • Theme 23 does not display popup LOV in tabular form

    I created new application using new Theme 23. In tabular form the popup LOV button does not show. While using this theme the column LOV button is soooooo small it is not visible. If I move the cursor on the side of the field eventually I cursor handle will change and I can click and popup LOV will show. When I switch to an older theme (e.g. 21) the LOV button shows just fine.
    Does anyone can offer a solution? Can I expect more this type of problems in the new theme 23?

    I examined exported application file. Indeed the problem is p_column_id parameter. It should be decimal number for translated application. Characters %2C in p_column_id value stands for comma. It should be dot instead. Parameter value should be p_column_id=30289208519476123679.915121.

  • Dynamic lovs in parameter forms ... Is this possible?

    Hi
    I am using report developer 10g on windows xp.
    I need a cascading prompt style dynamic LOVs in my report parameter form.
    The first LOV displays a set of values (say for eg. dept list). The second LOV will display another list, based on the value chosen by the user in the first LOV (Eg. List of employee names in that dept).
    My first LOV select statement may look like below for the user parameter say P_DEPT
    select deptno from dept;
    My sencod LOV select stmnt may look like below for the user parameter P_EMP
    select ename from emp where deptno = :P_DEPT
    Each time I try to set the second LOV, report developer complains "Bind variables not allowed in select statement"
    Same error msg comes if I reference the first user parameter(P_DEPT) as a lexical parmaeter.
    How do I acheive the above in report parameter form? Any help is appreciated greatly...
    Thanks

    Hi Brad,
    Thanks for the reply. I had almost given up hope on receiving replies to this message.
    I do agree that it is simpler (and a lot striaght forward) to just use forms to develop dynamic LOVs of cascading prompt style, that is required in my app. But in our shop, we have integrated forms and reports in such a way, that all the report parameters are handled by report developer's own parameter form, rather than coding a separate logic on the forms side to handle the report parameters(as this has to be done on the forms side for every report that we generate, We thought it would be better to use the reports developer to handle the parameter input and then pass the .rdf to forms app). Currently in all our app, the parameter form generated by the report developer is rendered as HTML form on the browser (when the concerned rdf file is called within the forms app) and by submitting this we get the report output)
    Hence I am very keen to get this done somehow on the report developer side.
    I do hope I get some input on this. Also, its a little surprising that such a simple feature is not readily avalibale in the report parameter form. I hope oracle report developer team is reading this message...:)
    Thanks

  • Dynamic action on tabular form

    Hi all,
    I'm working on a page with a tabular form. Based on the value of a radio button group, some of the columns has to be hidden. I have some experience with dynamic actions, but not in conjunction with tabular forms. I guess I have to use a jquery expression, but that's another area I don't have any experience in...
    Can someone help me or give me some directions? I'm on Apex 4.1

    Edited by: Tom van der Duin on 22-okt-2011 12:02

    Hi there,
    I am using Apex 4.0 and it seems to generate tabular forms like this:
    <th id="START_DATE" class="header"> headings
    <td headers="START_DATE" class="data" style=""> data cellsSo, you can use the Javascript code below to hide and show a column based on its name:
    function hideShowTabularFormColumn(name, show){
      if(show) {
        $("td[headers='"+name+"']").show();
        $("th.#"+name).show();
      } else {
        $("td[headers='"+name+"']").hide();
        $("th.#"+name).hide();
    onsomesortofevent="hideShowTabularFormColumn('START_DATE', false);"Note that, even hidden, the fields will still be submitted.

  • Dynamic action on tabular forms fields

    Hello guys.
    As I can see on the tabular form's fields I can't perform dynamic actions. What I want is to have a select list item when at the event Change it changes the values for all the records in that report. For example if I have 40 records in that tabular form and I change the value from "Open" to "Close to the field called Status, I want to see that change (Status value from "Open" to Close") reflected in all the rows of that tabular form. Is that make sense?
    Thank you, Bernardo.

    Hi Bernardo,
    There are several ways to accomplish what you want.
    - You can create a PL/SQL procedure to handle an update on all rows based on the value of your changed column value. I once wrote a blog post that might help you with that:
    http://vincentdeelen.blogspot.nl/2013/06/custom-multi-row-processing-using.html
    -You can create a dynamic action with javascript or jQuery to handle the change event.
    The first option is more secure since it's handled by the database, the second one is simpler and can instandly set all the entire column for all displayed rows, without the need to refresh your tabular form, or your entire page. For a secure working you should however have some validation at the database end. Also I think it is not possible to set the values for rows that are not displayed, that again would require some PL/SQL for handling.
    If you need any help setting up the dynamic action, please put up an example on apex.oracle.com.
    Regards,
    Vincent

    Hi,

    the emp_name,emp_position and emp_status should be automatically displayed.

    can anyone help ?
    thanks
    regards

    here's what you can do for your situation
    <li>Create an AJAX Callback process(PLSQL type) in your page that is similar to
    DECLARE
      lc_result XMLTYPE;
    BEGIN
       SELECT XMLELEMENT("COL"
                                     ,XMLELEMENT("COL1", wwv_flow.g_x01)
                                     ,XMLELEMENT("COL2", LPAD(wwv_flow.g_x01,10,'0'))
                                     ,XMLELEMENT("COL3", RPAD(wwv_flow.g_x01,10,'#'))
                                     ,XMLELEMENT("COL4", 'blah blah')
                                   ) RESULT
      INTO lc_result
      FROM DUAL;
        OWA_UTIL.MIME_HEADER('text/xml', false);
        htp.p('Cache-Control: no-cache');
        htp.p('Pragma: no-cache');
        OWA_UTIL.HTTP_HEADER_CLOSE();
        htp.p(lc_result.getstringval());
    END;This returns an XML with the rows data. I have just used some simple processing of the input data in this case, but you can modify it for your need
    <li>Then have a Dynamic Action that is triggered on change of the f01 input field
    //value of triggered item
    val = $(this.triggeringElement).val();
    //Call Ajax Callback process
    var a = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'),'APPLICATION_PROCESS=FETCH_ROW',$v('pFlowStepId'));
    a.addParam('x01',val);
    X = a.get('XML');
    //Obtain data from returned XML
    col2 = $(X).find('COL2').text() ;
    col3 = $(X).find('COL3').text() ;
    col4 = $(X).find('COL4').text() ;
    //Set items
    this_row = $(this.triggeringElement).parents('tr:first');
    this_row.find('input[name=f02]').val(col2);
    this_row.find('input[name=f03]').val(col3);
    this_row.find('input[name=f04]').val(col4);This sends the f01 field(triggering source) to the PLSQL that returns the data in XML format for 3 other columns and sets those columns.
    Hope that answers your question.

  • Dynamic actions and tabular forms

    I'm trying to attach a dynamic action to a tabular form item, and it's not working the way I'm expecting it to. Since you can't attach dynamic actions to parts of a tabular form in the "normal" way that you can for page items, I'm using JQuery selectors to pick the parts to link to. For links (such as opening a pop-up window with more information about a row), this is working fine. But I'm really struggling to attach to a simple checkbox.
    On my tabular form, I've got a simple checkbox. I've tried putting text in the Element Attributes, Element Option Attributes, CSS Class, CSS Style, and HTML Expression fields, but none of them appear to be making it through to the source code of the generated page. Which means, I think, that I'm limited to using a jQuery Selector along the lines of "input[name=f07]", but creating a dynamic action on click or on change with that selector doesn't seem to ever fire.
    What am I missing?
    -David

    Ok, this is interesting. When I tried to mock this up on apex.oracle.com, I was able to make it work (though I had to change the selector to "input[name=f07_NOSUBMIT]", which means I'm going to have to walk the DOM to get the actual value...but I'm pretty sure I can handle that). After a bit of scratching my head, I eventually found that my pop-up dynamic action was somehow or other blocking the checkbox dynamic action from firing. Changing the sequence so that the checkbox DA happens first allows them both to fire.
    Here's the javascript from the pop-up DA (it's based on this post by Havard Kristiansen):
    /* prevent default behavior on click */
    var trgt = this.triggeringElement.href;
    var e = this.browserEvent;
    e.preventDefault();
    /* Trigger JQuery UI dialog */
    var horizontalPadding = 30;
    var verticalPadding = 30;
    $('<iframe id="modalDialog" src="' + trgt + '" />').dialog({
         title: "Item Details",
         autoOpen: true,
         width: 570,
         height: 400,
         modal: true,
         close: function(event, ui) {$(this).remove();},
         overlay: {
              opacity: 0.5,
              background: "black"}
    }).width(570 - horizontalPadding).height(400 - verticalPadding);
    return false;At this point, the checkbox DA's action is simply an alert box. Like I said, I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm at least able to move forward...

  • Select query based LOV for tabular form attributes

    Hi HTMLDB Team,
    Congrats u all for the new release of HTMLDB in htmldb.oracle.com.
    I badly need a solution of the below problem.
    Say , i have table called user_col_comments now i want to display the table_name ,column_name and comments in a tabular form.I displayed only one row for the tabular form.Now i create a select query based LOV for attribute table_name where i got all table_name in drop down list.
    Point is that after selecting any data from drop down table list i want to get the corresponding fields to be populated in column_name attributes.How can i wrote the select query based LOV for the attibute column_name.
    I wrote it as 'select column_name d,column_name r from user_col_comments where table_name=:TABLE_NAME Its not working?
    Similarly i want same thing to display for comments after matching both table_name and column_name.
    Any solution to get rid of those problem will be highly appreciable...
    If u need my htmldb.oracle.com userid and password to solve the problem i will sure let u email it.

  • Dynamic LOV buttons in Forms

  • Dependent LOV in Tabular Form

    All,
    We are developing an application where we come across requirement to have two fields in tabular form and both are required to have LOV. But the issue is the second field LOV in the tabular form is dependent on first field value.
    ex: Assume first field is "Country" and second field is "Cities", when user selects first field country as "US", then we have to populate list of citiies in "US" for that row. And if the user selects country as "UK" for the second row, we have to populate second field (city) with list of citieis in "UK".
    We are unable to achieve this functionality and any help/pointers would be highly appreciated.

  • LOV in tabular form-Apex 4.0

    Hi
    I am creating a wizard based tabular form in Apex 4.0 and my scenario is like
    I have a deptno column in my form and i want the employees for that particular dept in the ename select list.
    I know that it can be done with manual tabular form. But since i am using a wizard based tabular form, is it possible for achieving this scenario.
    Thanks.
    Divya

    Hi Vee,
    I have tried your solution. I have replaced the column in my SQL with the apex_item version of the LOV. For showing the column correctly in the Grid I have to set the column to a "standard report column".
    But Now it is now the edit flag is gone and it is not a updatable column anymore. When I push the Add button I cannot insert a value for the column.
    How can I define the column as editable so the standard procedures for updating and inserting the column are working again.

    Fred.

  • Dynamic Actions on tabular form items

    Has anyone had success with using dynamic actions on a tabular form item?
    When I create a dynamic action for the selection type I believe I want to use DOM Object, I am just not sure what ID I then need to put into the DOM Object field.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Regards
    Mark

    If you wish to use JavaScript with tabular forms, I suggest looking at APEX_ITEM column types. They allow you to specify the JavaScript array number of any given column in your tabular form and rely on it. Then as you loop through your rows you can positively identify the element.
    Example:
    Original query:
    select colA, colB from myTable;
    select apex_item.text(1, colA, 20,20) as myText,
      apex_item.select_list_from_lov(2, colB, 'LOV_MYLOV', 0, 'NO') myLookup
      from myTable;I also highly recommend Firebug for Firefox. It will allow you to drill down into the DOM on any page to see the element identifications as the browser sees them. Definitely the best browser plugin for web development.
