Dynamically creating pages when the form is rendered to the user

Hi exeprts
I am trying to find out a way in which my livecycle designer form will be able to create a new pages based on a certain field value which is a part of xfa.data.datasets. Say I have to generate the payslip of 5 employee - My form should be able to provide me with 5 different pages for each employee. at runtime. It will have some prepopulated data fields (read Only) like employee Id or Employee designation or department and some additional fields which needs to be filled by the user.
In short If I have three employees say emp A, B & C then I should have 3 pages one each for A, B &C with their respective data prepopulated in the readOnly fields.The number of employees will be a variable which will be binded in the context and will be a part of the data model of the form.
I would like to know if such a functionality is possible to be achieved in the designer.
Thanks and Regards.

Problems to restrict access to a page when the user belong to more than 1 group

I have realized that Dreamweaver on a coldfusion document only works fine when the user only belongs to a single group, this is because the code supplied by dreamweave when you use the option "Restrict access to a page" at "Server behaviors" it assumes that the user only have one group as you can see on this line created automaticly by dreamweaver:
<cfif MM_Username EQ "" OR MM_UserAuthorization EQ "" OR ListFind("admin",MM_UserAuthorization) EQ 0>
MM_UserAutorization has the value of the field assigned for the list of groups or levels, as you can see it could work if we reverse the parameters of the listfind function but the problem would be if we grant the access to more than one group because the sentence would be like this:
<cfif MM_Username EQ "" OR MM_UserAuthorization EQ "" OR ListFind("Admin,Manager",MM_UserAuthorization) EQ 0>
so both paramethers are lists therefore no user will get access to the page.
I am trying to make a work around to fix this problem but I don't know how to get the name of the page since the Application.cfc so I can validate the access to this page against tables on my database.
Does someone have a work around or a tip how to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Seems like you have a problem with your group names.ctxLdap.modifyAttributes(groupName,member);Ensure that the value of your variable groupName is a a valid distinguished name.
Note that an OU (organizationalUnit) is not a group. You do not add users to OU's, you create users in OU's.

How to synch values of fields (cbo & text) in Master Pages section in dynamically created pages?

HI folks,
I have a requirement for a form that has a common master page with a checkbox and text field in it.   The document is basically a table that dynamically adds rows as the user adds entries.   When the first page is full, a second page is dynamically created and the Master page format (including the checkbox & text field) applied to it.
When the user sets the checkbox on one page and/or adds text, all of the checkboxes on all of the dynamically created pages (in the master section) and all of the text boxes need to change to show the same values.
However, I can't figure out how to address the fields on the other pages.   The number of pages changes from user to user, so I can't address them with a static reference.
Does anyone know how to keep these fields in synch?
Thanks in advance!

It woudl be easier to show than to explain it ...can you share the file? You can send it to [email protected] Include a description of the issue with your email please.

How to avoid submitting a page when tabular form rows are empty

Hi,
I have a master detail form in my application. There are 2 tables that are used Table A and Table B. Table A contains Ticket number and Table B refers to Table A through a foriegn key and Table B have columns like Date,Name, Age, ticket_id (that refers to the ticket_number of the Table A).
This is how the application works:
In a page there is a field for Ticket Number, once the user enters the Ticket Number and click Add Details, a tabular Form with 5 empty field appears... (Done through Page Process->Data Manipilation->Add Rows)
This form contains fields Date, Name and Age. Once the user fills in all the details and click Submit button, the page is submitted. Whatever values that was entered is saved in Table B. Page Sucess message appears. This works fine.
But once the Ticket Number is entered and Add Details is clicked, and without entering the values in the Tabular Form, if Submit button is clicked, there is no error showing up neither I see Page success message. But this should not be allowed. There should be some error showing up...
Tabular Form Validations works only when user enters some values in the Tabular Form and click Submit. For the above scenario, where the form is untouched the validation doesnt work.
How can I get this done? Any ideas?

Hello Suzi,
>> if (document.wwv_flow==null)
The document.wwv_flow is an object representing the current form that was just rendered on your screen. As such, it can never be null.
>> How to avoid submitting a page when tabular form rows are empty
The correct way, especially for versions prior to APEX 4.0 is to use JavaScript, but for that, you need to know and understand how APEX generates your tabular form, HTML wise.
To be very brief, APEX attached a unique ID to every updatable cell in the tabular form, using a certain pattern – each updatable column is getting a unique name (e.g. ‘f01’,’f02’ etc.) and the ID of a cell is a combination of this name with the serial row number the cell is on. For example, a cell on the third row in an updatable column called ‘f04’ will be given an ID of f04_0003. (More detailed explanation, with an example, can be found in my book).
What you should do is to check these cells according to your validation policy (e.g. is all five row must be filled, is all the columns in a specific row must be filled, etc.).

Arie.

Dynamically create pages from categories and subcategories

We have over a thousand businesses listed for a Chamber of Commerce website we're developing. Each business falls under a top-level category (eg. "Services") and a sub-category (eg. "Plumbers"). I'd like to pull all the categories with their respective subcategories from Site Settings > Categories and use each as a link to a dynamically created page. For instance, click Services, and BC would render a page with all the service provider businesses listed (10 max with links to next page). Similarly, click Plumbers and BC would render a page with the business listing for each plumber.
I understand there is no direct access to the database, but there must be some reasonably direct way to do this. Right now the categories appear in a <select> box as part of a Web Apps Search Form.
http://mainedreamvacation.businesscatalyst.com/businesses-1
Thanks!

I'm afraid I'm still new enough to BC that I didn't fully understand the part about having"...have a services web app sitting on an index page of the folder with the same name as the services web app and have them listed."
I have tried building this through a web app, but haven't been satisfied with the solution. I'd appreciate it if you could elaborate a bit more, offer an example, and/or point me to a tutorial on this subject.
Thanks!

How do I post to a new page when the 1st page is full?

How do you create a bul. board where the posts go on a 2nd
page when the first page is filled ...and 3rd page when 2nd is
full, etc ... Maybe I can stick a wordcount in a while loop before
the CFOutPUT Tag? Is there such a variable that holds a word count
or better still, a line count?
thnx a billion, please, please help!

Check out this code-Use a cfc which will be the same for you
and then change my query for yours in the .cfm HTHs:
functions.cfc:
<cfcomponent output="yes">

<cffunction name="nextXpage" access="public"
returntype="struct" hint="Next x page function" output="No">
<cfargument name="recordcount" required="Yes" default="0"
type="numeric" hint="The total numbers of records / values">
<cfargument name="page" required="Yes" type="numeric"
default="0" hint="The page number that you are currently on. (for
example URL.page)">
<cfargument name="maxrows" required="No" type="numeric"
default="10" hint="The maximum records / values to be displayed per
page">

<cfset var nextXpage = structNew()>

<cfset nextXpage.pagecount =
CEILING(arguments.recordcount / arguments.maxrows)>

<cfset nextXpage.maxrows = arguments.maxrows>

<cfset nextXpage.currentpage = arguments.page>

<cfset nextXpage.recordcount = arguments.recordcount>

<cfif arguments.page eq 1>
<cfset nextXpage.startrow = 1>
<cfelse>
<cfset nextXpage.startrow = (arguments.page *
arguments.maxrows) - (arguments.maxrows -1)>
</cfif>


<cfif arguments.page neq nextXpage.pagecount>
<cfset nextXpage.next = true>
<cfset nextXpage.nextpage = arguments.page + 1>
<cfelse>
<cfset nextXpage.next = false>
<cfset nextXpage.nextpage = 1>
</cfif>

<cfif arguments.page eq 1>
<cfset nextXpage.previous = false>
<cfset nextXpage.previouspage = 1>
<cfelse>
<cfset nextXpage.previous = true>
<cfset nextXpage.previouspage = arguments.page - 1>
</cfif>

<cfreturn nextXpage>
</cffunction>
</cfcomponent>
Then on your output page where you have the info:
.cfm page:

How can I create a scrolling effect where when the user scrolls down the image will blur out?

How can I create a scrolling effect where when the user scrolls down the image will blur out?

Hi there,
You can create a scroll motion where the image will fade out on scrolling, you need to use the Opacity tab under Scroll Effects Panel.
If you particularly need the image to be blur out, then you need to edit that image in any image editing program and make one copy of that image as blurred, then place both images (actual and blurred) on that page and use scroll motion or fade option to replace images.

Add code behind functionality that run when the user view the SP 2013 content pages

I need to add code behind functionality that run when the user view the SP 2013 content pages, What is the best approach to do that?
is it add Delegate Control to master page?
is it add code behind to master page?
is there an event reviver for that?
Your answer will be highly appreciated

Hi,
According to me, for code behind stuff
Create master page(using module etc..), have the required placeholders in it.
Then, create a page that inherit from this master page, now you can use that placeholder in you page.
Lastly, place web parts in that placeholder. So, code behind will come with that master page .
Hope it helps.
Thanks

Is it possible to have a PDF form flow to a second page IF the user needs to type in a lot of information? ( Like a Word Doc would)

Is it possible to have a PDF form flow to a second page IF the user needs to type in a lot of information? ( Like a Word Doc would)
An automated second page.

There are two approaches.
If you wish to use AcroForm technology, then you would need to write a bunch of JavaScript to enable this. It has been done, but it’s not trivial.
If you wish to use XFA technology, then it can be setup to happen automatically.
Be aware that in both cases, even though both technologies are part of the PDF standard, that the forms will only be usable in this manner in Adobe’s viewers as many others don’t support JavaScript or XFA.

How do I invoke an ActionListener on a page when the page initially loads?

How do I invoke an ActionListener on a page when the page initially loads?
Page 1: A user clicks on a h:commandButton and is navigated to Page 2.
Page 2: When the page loads and goes through RESTORE_VIEW, APPLY_REQUESTS and RENDER_RESPONSE, I need to call an ActionListener in the managed bean for Page 2.
However, if the user comes in from any other page than Page 1, the ActionListener cannot be invoked intially when the page loads. The user has a choice to click on the h:commandButton on Page2 to invoke the ActionListener.
What is an example of invoking a method with the ActionListener signature in Java code?
Where would I put the code to invoke the ActionListener, in a beforePhase or afterPhase, constructor?
Thanks,
--Todd

Interesting. You're right. It doesn't happen when I click away from this site and then return. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree. Maybe it's the specific website I was thinking of and not Firefox. Unfortunately, I have to use that site all the time for work. I'll try contacting their webmaster. Thanks for your help.
