Form validation without using dreamweaver

Is there a way to validate an email textfield in a form without using javascript. I would continue using javascript for the validation except people are getting around the validation by disabling the javascript validation that dreamweaver cs4 supplies.

You can validate your HTML at this link:
<http://validator.w3.org/>
And your CSS at this link:
<http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/>
Does this answer your question?

Button action bypass validation without using Immediate=true

I have a Form in a page, and a "Query" button to popup a dialog for user to search some information, and help user to fill-in some fields.
I want the "Query" button to ignoral all the validations in the Form (e.g.: required fields). I tried to set the Immedate for the button, but I found I cannot set any inputText value inside ReturnListener event-handler with Immedate is true.
Is there anyway to have a button to action, and bypass all the validation without using Immediate=true?
Thanks,

Hi,
if you are on JDeveloper 11g, have a look at the skipValidation property on the ADF binding and read: http://oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/tips/fnimphius/ppr_subform/index.html
You can implement a similar approach

Applying mx kollection form validation wwithout using mx kollection insert or update or del transaction

Is there a way to use the validate form without using the mx
kollection insert or update or delete transaction, and use the
default dreamweaver insert server behavior.

short answer : no, MX Kollection´s (also applies to
ADDT) form validation routines will only work for forms which have
been generated with MX Kollection/ADDT
>>
and use the default dreamweaver insert server behavior.
>>
but if you´re going to insert a record anyway, you can
as well use Kollection´s "Insert Record Form Wizard" to create
that form for you, which in turn does provide the required
validations.

Form Validation against database - Dreamweaver CS4 Spry

Hi all,
I'm trying to figure out how to implement a form validation
of some fields, let's say a username. I have a form that inserts on
MySQL table, and when the user is typing the username, after it
looses the focus on field, validate it if there is a record on
table with the specified username. If so, validation will fail.
I already saw something similar with this on Dreamweaver MX
using some extension (because at that time, it did not support
ajax).
Kind regards, and thanks in advance.

I don't have a solution, but you may try posting in the Spry
Forums, you might get a better response.

What is your strategy for form validation when using MVC pattern?

This is more of a general discussion topic and will not necessarily have a correct answer. I'm using some of the Flex validator components in order to do form validation, but it seems I'm always coming back to the same issue, which is that in the world of Flex, validation needs to be put in the view components since in order to show error messages you need to set the source property of the validator to an instance of a view component. This again in my case seems to lead to me duplicating the code for setting up my Validators into several views. But, in terms of the MVC pattern, I always thought that data validation should happen in the model, since whether or not a piece of data is valid might be depending on business rules, which again should be stored in the model. Also, this way you'd only need to write the validation rules once for all fields that contain the same type of information in your application.
So my question is, what strategies do you use when validating data and using an MVC framework? Do you create all the validators in the views and just duplicate the validator if the exact same rules are needed in some other view, or do you store the validators in the model and somehow reference them from the views, changing the source properties as needed? Or do you use some completely different strategy for validating forms and showing error messages to the user?

Thanks for your answer, JoshBeall. Just to clarify, you would basically create a subclass of e.g. TextInput and add the validation rules to that? Then you'd use your subclass when you need a textinput with validation?
Anyway, I ended up building sort of my own validation framework. Because the other issue I had with the standard validation was that it relies on inheritance instead of composition. Say I needed a TextInput to both check that it doesn't contain an empty string or just space characters, is between 4 and 100 characters long, and follows a certain pattern (e.g. allows only alphanumerical characters). With the Flex built in validators I would have to create a subclass or my own validator in order to meet all the requirements and if at some point I need another configuration (say just a length and pattern restriction) I would have to create another subclass which duplicates most of the rules, or I would have to build a lot of flags and conditional statements into that one subclass. With the framework I created I can just string together different rules using composition, and the filter classes themselves can be kept very simple since they only need to handle a single condition (check the string length for instance). E.g. below is the rule for my username:
library["user_name"] = new EmptyStringFilter( new StringLengthFilter(4,255, new RegExpFilter(/^[a-z0-9\-@\._]+$/i) ) );
<code>library</code> is a Dictionary that contains all my validation rules, and which resides in the model in a ValidationManager class. The framework calls a method <code>validate</code> on the stored filter references which goes through all the filters, the first filter to fail returns an error message and the validation fails:
(library["user_name"] as IValidationFilter).validate("testuser");
I only need to setup the rule once for each property I want to validate, regardless where in the app the validation needs to happen. The biggest plus of course that I can be sure the same rules are applied every time I need to validate e.g. a username.
The second part of the framework basically relies on Chris Callendar's great ErrorTipManager class and a custom subclass of spark.components.Panel (in my case it seemed like the reasonable place to put the code needed, although perhaps extending Form would be even better). ErrorTipManager allows you to force open a error tooltip on a target component easily. The subclass I've created basically allows me to just extend the class whenever I need a form and pass in an array of inputs that I want to validate in the creationComplete handler:
validatableInputs = [{source:productName, validateAs:"product_name"},
                     {source:unitWeight, validateAs:"unit_weight", dataField:"value"},
               {source:unitsPerBox, validateAs:"units_per_box", dataField:"value"},
                    {source:producer, validateAs:"producer"}];
The final step is to add a focusOut handler on the inputs that I want to validate if I want the validation to happen right away. The handler just calls a validateForm method, which in turn iterates through each of the inputs in the validatableInputs array, passing a reference of the input to a suitable validation rule in the model (a reference to the model has been injected into the view for this).
Having written this down I could probably improve the View side of things a bit, remove the dependency on the Panel component and make the API easier (have the framework wire up more of the boilerplate like adding listeners etc). But for now the code does what it needs to.

How to save the session states for a tabular form WITHOUT using check boxs?

Greeting guys,
As you know that we can use collections to save the session states of a tabular forms, described in the how-to doc of manual tabular forms. However, what I am trying to do ( or have to do) is to provide a manual tabular form, and save the session states for validation, without using the check boxes. Because a user can put contents into some columns in a row without checking the corresponding checkbox, according to the requirements. So basically what I tried is to loop over all the rows and save Every entry into a collection. However, sometimes I got "no data found" error with unknown reasons.
My current solution is to use the "dirty" Retry button that gets back the history, which IMO is not a good workabout. So, I'd appreciate if somebody can shed some light on a better solution, especially if it is close to the one in that how-to doc.
Thanks in advance.
Luc

The following is the first collection solutin I've tried:
htmldb_collection.create_or_truncate_collection('TEMP_TABLE');
for i in 1..p_row_num loop -- Loop on the whole form rows
if (htmldb_application.g_f01(i) is not null) or (htmldb_application.g_f05(i) <> 0)
--If either of them has some input values, the row should be saved into the colleciton.
then
htmldb_collection.add_member(
p_collection_name => 'TEMP_TABLE',
p_c001 => htmldb_application.g_f01(i),
p_c002 => htmldb_application.g_f03(i),
p_c003 => htmldb_application.g_f04(i),
p_c004 => htmldb_application.g_f05(i),
p_c005 => htmldb_application.g_f06(i),
p_c006 => htmldb_application.g_f08(i)
end if;
end loop;
Some of columns have null values, but I don't think that's the reason. Because once I clicked all the check boxes, there would be no error no matter what values were in other columns.
Another issue would be extract the values FROM the collection, which has been tried because I had problem to store the data into the collection. I used "decode" functions inside the SQL to build the tabular form. I am not sure whether it will be the same as a regular SQL for a tabular form, like the example in the How-to doc.
Also I didn't use the checksum, for it is not an issue at the current stage. I am not sure whether that's the reason which caused the NO DATA FOUND error.

Use HCM processes and Forms without using the Enterprise Portal

is it possible to leverage existing HR Admin Services (HCM processes and Forms) functionality without using the Enterprise Portal?
1) Create an Adobe form and Interface using SFP
2) Set up ISR and Form Scenario
3) Set up Forms configuration to use existing Backend and generic Services
4) Set up workflow to updated Backend using Services
is it possible to do the above steps and not use the Portal? If Yes, how do we present the forms to the Manager, and provide different buttons that appears on the Portal by default?
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Saurabh

Hi Saurabh,
your assumptions and findings (items can not be started from the backend workflow inbox etc.) are correct: These processes can not be started without the Portal and it is not intended to do this.
The above mentioned backend report are only forseen for implementation and testing purposes and not for productive use.
In addition to the fact, that you already can't execute the work items a lot of other features of the framework (Process Browser etc.) are only available through the Portal.

A forms developer could make those fields required with a CUSTOM.pll extension if you didn't want to use forms personalization. Both are considered customizations to standard functionality and may or may not require rework after patching or upgrades.

How to do skip form validation ?

hi,
im using jdev 11.1.2.3,
how to skip the form validation im using the global buttons..i created the global buttons in template ,template is accessing using page so i need to set skip validation for form

You can skip form validation by setting immediate="true" for the buttons. However, this is non-recommended because you may get validation errors later (when you are in another page) if your form has already submitted part of its data through some PPR requests while you were dealing in the form (e.g. validation errors caused at commit time by ADF BC components which were modified but not validated yet).

Make use of validator framework.. this would enable you to do validation both @ client side by javascript under defined validation rules and also enables you to do it @ serverside....
And if want to create a Dyanamic Form beans which takes care of validations to make use ValidatorForm or DynaValidatorForm class under the pacakage org.apache.struts.validator and create an instance of it with preconfigured validations under structs...
Make use of the links below which i think are the best tutors for newbies....

How do I create a webpage in Dreamweaver WITHOUT using layers?

I'm reading a lot about how we should not use layers and
tables when creating a website in Dreamweaver because of something
called "absolute placement" (or something), which is the reason the
text in my website is constantly misaligned or overlapping when
opened up in Firefox. Although, I've never had this problem before
for the past three years I've been using Dreamweaver to create my
sites, which is what's most frustrating I think.
So, I guess I'm wondering how, then, do I create a webpage in
Dreamweaver WITHOUT using layers and tables? The only thing I've
been able to do w/o layers/tables is to literally hit "enter" and
"tab" continuously until the cursor is somewhere close to where I
want it to be on the page. But that seems a little old-school (for
lack of a better term) to really be the way to do it.
Also, if I've used a lot of layers/tables already in my
website, is the general recommendation for be to rebuild my site
completely w/o layers/tables, or is it feasible for me to have
someone who knows HTML just come in and fix the actual HTML code
for me to make it all work?
Ideally, I just want something to help me fix this problem
w/o having to hire someone else to come in, cause I've been working
this site for about a year now and am just now finally getting it
up online only to find that the way it looks online is not the way
it looks in Dreamweaver. I'd really really appreciate any
suggestions/advice.
Thank you so much!

Hello,
The first bit of advice, which you may already be doing, it
to learn HTML
and CSS.
CSS is used to style and position elements.
Instead of adding numerous to add spacing, for
example, you can use
CSS to add margins or padding to elements to move them away
from other
elements.
Also, IMHO there is nothing wrong with using tables,
specially as you learn.
You can also use <divs> and CSS to position them (a
table-less layout).
There are a number of threads in this forum comparing them
and giving many
designer's views.
It's Dreamweaver's "Layout Mode" you should stay away
from.Use "Standard
Mode"
It creates tables with rowspanss and colspans that are very
fragile.
Something as simple as a user having a different text size
setting in their
browser than what you had in yours when you designed can make
the page break
apart.
More info:
http://apptools.com/rants/spans.php
Also, "Layers" are an older DW term for AP Divs (Absolutely
Positioned).
They can cause you a lot of frustration.
More info:
http://apptools.com:80/examples/pagelayout101.php
I would strongly suggest you take a couple of hours to do
these tutorials.
They are a great introduction to using CSS, making a
stylesheet and using
DW's "wizards".
They are very well written, illustrated and easy to follow.
I promise you will walk away with a different outlook on how
you can design
a page.
They are not intended to replace learning HTML or CSS in any
way, I just
think it will benefit you greatly seeing what you can do.

Migrating Oracle forms to APEX 3.2 without using Forms2XML tool

Can we migrate Oracle forms to APEX 3.2 without using Forms2XML tool?

Hi Anoo,
In order to convert Oracle Forms to Oracle Application Express, using the Forms Conversion utility in Oracle APEX 3.2, you are required to convert your Forms Module (FMB) files to XML format, using the Oracle Forms to XML conversion tool, Forms2XML. I would recommend that you review Chapter 4 [Converting an Oracle Forms Application|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14373_01/migrate.32/e13368/appmgr_forms.htm] , in the Oracle Application Express Migration Guide Release 3.2
If you have any further questions relating to the Oracle Forms to Oracle Application Express conversions, I would recommend that you refer to the [Application Express|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=137] forum.
I hope this helps.
