File Browser capabilities for V1.6

Hello, 
I am using a File Browser to add/upload files to my reports just like the How To: Build File Upload/Download App. The reports are working fine and so are the files until I want to edit/update individual records. When the FETCH ROW is executed, all fields for that record are returned except for the File Browse field. My question is, can the File Browser be used to recall the file that was attached, so that the user can decide if they would like to edit/update that record with another file?
 
 
Right now I have all the records fields returning data except for File Browser field that remains blank. When I click it, select a different file, then save, all the other fields are updated except for this one that continues to display the original attached file.
 
 
The File Browser's setting are: 
HTML Form Element Attributes:onchange="htmldb_item_change(this)" 
Source Used:Always, replacing any existing value in session state 
Source Type:Database Column 
Maintain Session State:Per Session 
Source value or expression:FILE_NAME 
Thanks, 
Leo

Where's JDeveloper11g file browsing feature for codes?

In JDeveloper 11g, whenever I type img src, followed by an equation sign, I expect to see the File Browse link being popped up along with all the files within the directory so I can easily pick the ones I need. Unfortunately, this function does not work, and all I get is "CDATA or ELExpression" being popped up which usually happens when there is no code insight. I am sure the File Browse and easy pick feature did exist before way back in the early versions of 10g. Is this a bug in 11g or it is a step backward by removing that feature although I don't believe there's a sound reason to.

Hi, I'm afraid I have got this issue since the first clean install. For all 11g versions I have tried on, there is no popup for File Browse, as you can see here:
http://s8.postimg.org/4wy23u6ut/image.jpg (Jdeveloper 11g)
On the other hand, when I checked the old 10g version that I have previously, it has that, just like below.
http://s21.postimg.org/aetyo97mr/image.jpg (JDeveloper 10g)
For all the above, I am using JSP page. Usually I would create a custom application, and then adding a new JSP. I believe this shouldn't result any peculiarity, as it's almost standard procedure.
Update: I think I've figured out. I didn't have image files in the directory yet. After I have put some images in the directory, I'm now able to see the File Browse.
By the way, is JDeveloper 11g short of support for inline CSS parameters?
For instance, if i type the HTML, [anchor] input style [equals], it doesn't pop up things like 'text-align' etc. I think I noticed this feature when I'm doing a preview of 12c, so can anyone confirm that this doesn't exist in any version of 11g?

File browse functionality for all files within a directory

I have an app where you use file browse to select a file on the file system. Then, I parse the file name to determine other attribution to record in database, which may result in more user interaction before creating the database record.
So, currently users can do this one file at a time. Anything available to let me loop through all files within a user-specified directory?
Thanks,
Steve

Advanced file browsing capabilities

I would like the Finder to improve on the way it can use extended attributes...
Currently, we can edit a property named "Spotlight Comments", which in reality is "com.apple.metadata:kMDItemFinderComment".
In list mode we can make a column appear, with the values of those comments.
Basic functionality missing: in list mode, we can edit the file name, but we cannot edit the comments.
Advanced functionality missing: I would like to add user-defined columns. For example, when typing ⌘-J to have the options, the popup window could propose to create a new column, and store the value of column Toto in the extended attribute "com.apple.metadata:kMDItemFinderToto" (or use the OpenMeta framework).
Additional functionality: export to / import from csv of all these fields.
I guess that this will never appear in the Finder, but I want to ask anyway...

since this is a user-to-user forum, I guess your post is wrong here.
anyway, apple is known to leave certain advanced functionality/choices out to get a really easy-to-use and straightforward interface, so I guess your suggestions are not really the apple way to do it.
But I bet there are finder-alternatives out there who can do a lot of stuff, maybe you should look for something like that

As noted, this confuses the issue, since a possible answer was posted in the OTHER thread.. Check your server logs, you are probably timing out.. From prior threads with a similar issue:
Have a look at the httpd.conf file (or get your system administrator to look at it) and see what the value of TimeOut is set to. You may need to increase it in order to export large tables via APEX.

HTML 5 Compatible File Browser Control

Has anyone seen a a plugin or sample demonstrating a html 5 compliant file browser control for APEX 4.x? I know of a pay to use plugin but my office is leery about buying a 3rd party plugin. I know there are jquery plugins available, but was looking to see if anyone had already done the heavy lifting.
Mainly we are looking to implement this to limit what types of files are uploaded by users, so instead of telling them AFTER they upload the file, we limit what type files they can upload BEFORE they have a chance to upload incorrect file types..
Thank you,

File Browsing for Freaks (i.e. 'advanced users')

I'm currently searching a simple, lightweight, shell-based file-browser. I'm not searching a file-manager, too much bloat in it. I don't want to manage my files through a file-manager, I prefer to use cp, mv, vi/nano etc..
I just want a file-browser which I can use to browse directories on my system through an ncurses-based interface.
It should just show me the content of a directory and give me a one-line CLI-Prompt at the bottom as the Midnight Commander does, so I can execute my commands (cp, mv, vi/nano etc..) directly from the file-browser
Do you know ncmpc? Or cplay?
I'm searching a file-browser with an interface which resembles the one ncmpc and/or cplay uses.
If you know something like that what I'm searching, drop me a line.

I use this: ls -l -a --color=auto -h -F --group-directories-first
Which I have aliased to just l
I played around with different tools in the last days and I found out some things which can be useful.
Possibility 1:
'~$: ls -l -a --color=auto -h -F --group-directories-first | w3m'
In this case w3m is used as pager for displaying a directory's content.
But one could also use 'more', 'less' or simply '~$: ls -l -a --color=auto -h -F --group-directories-first' without any pager.
Possibility 2:
'~$: w3m <path/to/dir>'
By default this gives you a full dual panel view with browse-able ('click-able') directories, content listing and viewing (not editing AFAIK) the content of text files.
You're even able to customize the panel-, format- and sorting-type by simply using 3 selection fields at the top.
I think using w3m as directory pager and file viewer *could* be a compromise between the blank ls and a more powerful file browser.
Possibility 3:
'~$: lynx <path/to/dir>'
More powerful than w3m with (at least) the same customization possibilities.
Additionally you can specify a default editor (e.g. Vi, Nano etc.) in the lynx config, after this you're able to select a text file and [ENTER] to open your preferred editor and view/modify the selected file. Modify it, save, quit the editor and continue browsing your system with lynx. Lynx' capabilities go even further: You can create, modify (move/rename) and delete directories.
Amazing, don't you think?
Unix and its abilities to combine different tools for a specific task never ceases to amaze me.

Possible to set the Created_by column value for File Browse?

I'm using database account authentication and then a user gets to upload a file. Then my stored procedure reads the file. I was investigating a problem, happened to search the apex_workspace_files view and noticed the created_by column is always set to APEX_PUBLIC_USER for the files my users upload. Is there some way I can set that value when they log in, so I can track who actually did the upload?
Thanks,
Stew

Dimitri,
I was just using the standard File Browse item, so getting the blob from the workspace view. Though I've seen notes here about loading to your own table, what I had seemed to work (and was done) fairly well. There were just these little features I wanted to use...
Thanks for the suggestion.
Dave, I'm not sure which stored procedure you're suggesting I add the apex_custom_auth.get_username value to? I hoped that the internal File Browse routine would pick up the get_username value automatically instead of the application definition Public User value.
Thanks,
Stew

How to change the "Download" word indicated for a File browse item ?

Hi,
I have a File Browse item. It displays "Download". And works fine too ! i want to change the Message "Download" by "Télécharger". Where can I find this ?
Thank you for your kind help !
Christian

Hello Christian,
If you are referring to the DOWNLOAD on an interactive report that is set to download a blob (for example), you can change the word Download to be anything you wish in the Download Format Mask. The very last entry is the Download Message.
DOWNLOAD:TABLE_NAME:BLOB_CONTENTS_COLUMN:PRIMARY_KEY_1:PRIMARY__KEY_2:MIME_Type_COlumn:FILENAME_COLUMN:LAST_UPDATE_DATE:CHARACTER_SET:CONTENT_DISPOISITION:DOWNLOAD_LINK_TEXT
For example:
DOWNLOAD:TABLE_Of_CONTENTS:TOC_PAGES:BOOK_ID:::PDF_FILENAME:MOD_DATE::ATTACHMENT:Click Here To Download This Book
The message "Click Here To Download This Book" will appear for each link.
Good luck,
Don.

Newer versions of Photoshop ships with Adobe Bridge for Organizing image files. However your not required to use it. You can also use LightRoom or system utilities like Windows File explorer and Mac Finder. Photoshop itself uses System dialogs to access your file systems files. When Photoshop display an Open or Save dialog to you in all probability its a Windows or Mac System dialog. Photoshop versions may also have some internal Photoshop Dialogs programed by Adobe for accessing your systems file systems.

1) What you downloaded should be a packed file (zip, tar.gz, etc) that needs to be unpacked into the directory of your choice.
2) & 3) are answered by Ant's installation documentation (the page you're quoting from):

Looking for file browser for WordPerfect Graphic files

I'm not sure which forum to post this to, but here is my question. I have many CD's of WordPerfect Clipart in WPG format from my old WordPerfect days in Windows (sigh, I miss it on my Mac). I am trying to find a file browser or viewer that will display the thumbnails for viewing. Many apps and the finder do this for standard graphic file formats but I can't find one for wpg graphics.
I can convert one at a time with MacLink Plus but it is so slow and you really don't know what the file is until coverted.
If you know of any app that will diaplay a series of thumbnails or a light table view of the files I would appreciate it.
Thank you.

You could download the free last version of WP for the Mac, open them in that and save each as PICT. A third-party utility, "MetaMacro", would do that on all files in a folder in one step. Links to the download, the necessary OS 8/9/Classic updater (also helpful on OS 7), and MetaMacro are at:

Why doesn't apple offer a viewer/file browser for iCloud Drive?

Why doesn't apple offer a viewer/file browser for iCloud Drive?
Dropbox, Microsoft’s OneDrive, and Google Drive all have viewer apps that let you see and manage what’s in the drive. The only way you can do that with iCloud Drive is through a web browser. Very frustrating and backward.

I found a possible band-aid for our problem:
1) On iOS 8 Device, go to Safari / iCloud.com
2) Once you get to iCloud.com, you'll notice it won't give you the option to log in.
3) Tap on the URL bar (this should bring up your bookmarks bar and Frequently Visited Sites)
4) Tap, Hold, and Slide your finger down on that section (this will reveal two options: (1) Add to Favorites, and (2) Request Desktop Site
5) Tap Request Desktop Site
Log in as usual, and you can now access iCloud Drive with your PDFs and other documents like any other computer.
I too am disappointed as I was looking forward to view PDF's shared between my Macbook and my iPad, but I think this should work until Apple comes out with a solution.

Default location for file browse dialog

OK, I know this is not solely an APEX issue, but is there a way that one can specify a starting location when invoking the file browse dialog?

I don't think there is a possibility to modify the file browse item. It is a security issue.
