Dynamically generated Google Map in new window

I've got a detail page for restaurants and would like to have
a "MAP IT"
link that, when clicked, opens a map of the location in a new
window,
preferably using Google maps since I like them (but that's
not critical).
I've got the WebAssist extension but it will only embed the
map and you have
to enter the address to create it. so, my questions are:
1. How can I generate a Google map using fields from my
Recordset (I'd need
at least street and zip but it's probably better to use the
city and state
too)?
2. How can I have it open in a new browser window?
An extension would be best and easiest, but I'm open to any
possibility that
doesn't require a degree in advanced rocket science.
BTW, I have a Google Maps API for this site. I'm using PHP
and MySQL.
Thanks!

I believe this is because the "#" is seen as the beginning of
the "hash"
value (location.hash)

Multitouch zoom in google maps on a windows 7 tablet leads to a zoom of the whole browser window including tools.

Using a tablet with windows 7 and multitouch screen and the actual firefox version. If i open google maps and want to zoom the map with the zoom gesture, firefox zooms the hole browser window including the tools instead of the map. If i open another empty tab and closing it before using the zooming gesture, everything will work. Would be helpful if someone could give me a hint how to overcome these problems without always opening a new empty tab.

Well, the touch problem was first observed with Firefox Version 21. The Versions 21 to 23 offers the workaround with opening and closing a new tab. Since Version 24 also the workaround didn't work anymore and the problem, that the multitouch gestures zooms the hole browser window is still present. Maybe this makes it clear for now. So would be helpful if anybody could give me a real hint how to overcome these problem.

Open a generated pdf file in new window

Dear all,
I'm using JDev ADF 11.1.1.4.0
I use the command button method to generate pdf file with JasperReports and I store it into the public folder /reports/test5.pdf. To open this file I can use goLink or goButton with target frame _blank, but how can I open this file automatically after generation?
I was reading about fileDownloadActionListener, but it's not what I need, I just want to open the file in new window browser.
Any help will be appreciated.

FM to start IE (google maps) in separate window ?

Hello experts,
is there a fm or something in order to start the internet explorer
in separat window so that I can give this ie-window parameters
for geodate google-maps ?
Has anybody experience in this ?
Thanks for help,
Gerd

Hi there you can use a call_browser FM
to send the parametes to the site.. you need to analyse how google is using ur search criteria in the adress bar and send the URL accordingly.

Embed an interactive google map into a PDF

Hi there,
I'm currently working on a client project where many different store locations need to use the same layout, but with a large map. In order to save costs for the client, the aim is that each store will edit the template to their own store. So I'm wanting to embed google maps into the pdf (which I've done via InDesign), where the store can simply drag the map and zoom in on their individual location (pins are not needed) and then print out their document. I've been able to make an interactive map using the html code google maps gives you in InDesign, and works fine in Adobe Content Viewer - but not in Adobe Acrobat, where it ends up as a static image. This happens regardless of wether I save it as an interactive PDF, or SWF file.
Is there anyway to embed a dynamic, working google map into an interactive PDF document?
(notes: I am working on iOS. The file will have to work on both Windows and Macintosh, but I understand that it may only work when the file is opened in Acrobat)

PCUI - open New Window via Button (to call custom URL / HTML viewer)

Hello group,
I have followed the "Use CRM PCUI HTML viewer to call a custom URL" in order to create a custom URL to BW web template.
However, instead of displaying the URL in a tab (this works fine), I want a Button in the Accounts view to open up a New Window displaying the URL there.
Here is what I have done:
Create Field Group & Structure
Create Event
- Usage: Layout-Relevant
- Text: Web template call
Added Event to Toolbar Group ACC_OIC
Define Application Layout (CRMM_ACCOUNT) for Event
- Position: New Window
- Screen Element Type: HTML
- my field group
- my structure
Define Application Set (COMM_BUPA)
- my structure
- my access class
The button is there, when clicked the read-method of my access class is executed, but no New Window is opened with the URL displayed.
Is there something I am missing? Can the HTML viewer not called in a new window?!
I appreciate any input you can provide me.
Thanks and regards,
Erik

Pdf in new window

Hi ,
i have read PDF from DB and set
response.setContentType("application/pdf");
response.setContentLength(bytes.length);
in action class of struts.
I have one success page .Once the request is processed , pdf gets open. but in same window. Please suggest me how to open the generated PDF type in new window.

It's too late to open a new window once the request is processed. You can open a new window from the html that links to the pdf by setting the href target to _blank. JavaScript can also open new windows.

I enabled 3d in google maps, and it now crashes firefox everytime I open maps. HELP!!

I have a mac, and I was using google maps. I was trying to find the views of the actual buildings on the maps, and clicked on the 3D option in the lower left corner. That caused an immediate crash of firefox and has done so everytime I try to open google maps. The window isn't open long enough for me to try and unclick that option. Please tell me how to get my google maps back! thanks

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Response in new window, tab, popup

Hi,
using JDeveloper 10.1.3.3. ADF BC JSF, I'm going crazy with the following problem,
I have a page and commandLink on it, when I click on commandLink I call method that parses some XDO file to get the params out, and from that metod I redirect to servlet url with params like this:
response.sendRedirect("http://10.52.12.221:8993/Publisher-ViewController-context-root/faces/prompt" + params);in servlet I generate html with input fields like this:
response.setContentType(CONTENT_TYPE);
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
try{
Enumeration paramNames = request.getParameterNames();
out.println("<html>");
out.println("<head><title>Params</title></head>");
out.println("<p>Enter params for report</p>");
out.println("<FORM action=\"http://10.52.12.221:8993/Test-ViewController-context-root/faces/prompt\" method=\"post\">");
while (paramNames.hasMoreElements()) {
String name = (String) paramNames.nextElement();
out.println("<INPUT type=\"text\"" + "name=\""+name + "\">");
out.println("<INPUT type=\"submit\" value=\"Generate report\"</P></FORM></body></html>");
out.close();All I want is to show generated html page in new window, new tab or popup, and I cannot do this. I've tried everything, added javascript in head and in body I've added onLoad which calls javacript function to open new window, but new window is always blank while main page becomes the html generated in servlet. Does anyone have some solution to my problem, advice or anything, please help.
Thanks in advance,
Tomislav.

Hi Frank,
thanks on your time. I've found a solution to my problem and I cannot believe how I didn't see it before:
af:form TargetFrame = "_blank" every time commandLink is clicked result is displayed in new window or tab depending on browser configuration. Haven't tested it thoroughly, I will tomorrow and post if everything worked out fine.

Is this the right to use or for iOS can use dynamic google maps embeded(can be embedded fo iOS)

function displayMap(e) {
var title = e.data.title,
latlng = e.data.lat + ',' + e.data.lng;
if (typeof device !='undefined' && device.platform.toLowerCase() == 'android') {
window.location = 'http://maps.google.com/maps?z=16&q=' + encodeURIComponent(title) + '@' + latlng;
} else {
$('#map h1').text(title);
$('#map div[data-role=content]').html('<img src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/staticmap?center=>' + latlng + ' &zoom=16&size=320x420&markers=' + latlng + '&sensor=false">');
$.mobile.changePage('#map', 'fade', false, true);
my phonegap (Adobe press, Powers jQuery with dw 5.5) book (old book (c)2010-11) says for above code: // is this valid for today, is this the right to use or for iOS can use dynamic google maps embeded(can be embedded fo iOS)???
On iOS, calling window.location loads the map directly
into the app. That’s great until you realize that iOS devices
don’t have a Back button, so there’s no way to exit the
map. To get round this problem, I loaded a static map as
an image in the map page block. It’s not interactive, but at
least you can continue using the Travel Notes app after
viewing the map by clicking the Back button generated by
jQuery Mobile.

Well, this took me a while to get solved, but it is indeed solved.
I tried USB Overdrive and it could, and perhaps should work, but apparently it will not. When adding a device, it seems that USB Overdrive is not set up to handle any input device that does not register itself as either a Mouse or a Joystick. The VEC USB Footpedal that I'm using is "Device type: Other".
So, I went for Quickeys. And Quickeys can do it all. It did recognize the device, I was able to assign it to the scope of the particular audio playback app I wanted to use (Amazing Slow Downer OS X - which is truly amazing. Any musicians reading this who are looking for a way to learn pieces by ear, this does it better than anything else I've seen yet).
I created a shortcut in Quickeys for the ASD app; added the middle button of the foot pedal as the trigger; set one step, entering 'space bar' as the step (which toggles playback, similar to many audio players).
It all worked.
Quickeys is very confusing and seemingly featured with an endless array of options. Enter at your own risk. Ask me for help. This was the only way to get it done that I could find. I did write to the author of USB Overdrive asking him to please support additional devices as I did find some traction from gamers who like to use a foot pedal in addition to other input devices. There was a Windows-only management utility for the foot pedal that was intended for custom input, assigning the buttons to any keyboard input or mouse click event. It would be nice to have a simple and easy to use utility like this. But, Quickeys did do the job.
Thanks for your help, you guys!!!

Command to open a PDF generated Oracle Report in New browser window

I know this is probably something for the Oracle Forums but I'll ask anyway because I can't find any info out there on this, without some extra work.
I am generating a PDF file from 10g Oracle reports on Linux RHEL 5 and storing the PDF file to the server. I can send that PDF file directly to a printer with the "lpr" command and that part works fine.
What I'm wanting to do now is "View" the PDF from within the server in a new window. We are using RHEL 5 (Linux) platform and I'm trying to see if there is a way to open the file with a "command line" command that will open it in a new browser window or new window period (opening it with Adobe Acrobat).
Does anyone have a command that will do this? Otherwise, how has everyone else been handling this. The idea of just viewing the previously generated PDF Report file will save us overhead on our database servers because they won't have to re-run some of the same reports over and over.
Any help and assistance is appreciated.
Chris

Several options:
- If you only want to show the pdf to the client without printing, use destype=cache and use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT after the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (for examples search the forms-forum, there are lots)
-If you have to generate the pdf to a file to get it printed, you could
+use WEBUTIL_FILETRANSFER.AS_TO_CLIENT after the printing to transfer the file to the client, then use CLIENT_HOST to view it.
+map the appserver-directory you generate the report to as a virtual directory in the application-server then use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to directly access the generated file via url.
