Forms 10 / mouse navigation

Hi Friends,
I'm having trouble with the mouse navigation in WebForms.
(I know there are several threads about this topic already,
but I didn't see any solution - if there is some, please would
someone take these tomatoes off my eyes ..)
I'am using Developer Suite 10.1.2.0.2 + Sun Plugin 1.4.2_07
The problem is: when I click with the mouse into some text field,
the cursor will blink in that field, but the programm focus will stay
in the "former" text field (text input will be entered in that "former" field).
Using tab, next-key ... works fine.
This happens always (once in a while clicking into a combobox field will change focus).
My solution so far is a when-mouse-click trigger with basically
     go_block(:system.trigger_block)
     go_record(:system.mouse_record)
     go_item(:system.mouse_item)(open issue: create_record when clicking in an empty line in a multi-record-block)
Does anyone have any better solution?
I can't remember having any problem of that kind with Forms 6i and JInitiator 1.3.17.
Way off assumption: could it be connected to some security restriction like no access to some system resources?
(since I'm getting three unsolved java errors at startup)
Gratefull for any ideas .. or solutions ;-)
Volker

oh, sorry, somehow I missed all those questions.
The solution is something like this:
1. Find the file "java.policy" on your system
The exact location depends on your local configuration
(in my case for example it is Y:\Settings\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\security)
2. Put the following line in the that file
grant {  permission java.security.AllPermission; };
3. Close all browser windows (to be sure that your JVM stops)
4. Start your browser+application
If your mouse problems are gone, then you may start to drill down the permissions you have to grant (assuming you don't want to live with that "grant all" above). Ask your java expert for it or search for "java.policy".
If your mouse problem still exists, make sure you changed the proper "java.policy" (for example by putting in some wrong code, then you should get java syntax error messages at browser startup).
If you are sure you changed the right java.policy file, then your solution lies somewhere else and I can't help you anymore.
questions?
(from now I will keep an eye on it ..)
yours
Volker

  • Mouse navigations problem with Sun Java 1.5.0_*

    Hello gurus,
    We need to move from JInitiator to Sun Java Plugin; according to the Forms10g Client Platform Support (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/10gR2/clientsod_forms10gR2.html) one of the certified version for Forms 10.1.2.0.2 of the the Sun Java Plugin is 1.5.0_06 and Internet Explorer 6.0, we have tested also SJPI 1.5.0_09 and we get the same mouse navigation problem reported in the following Oracle Forum threads.
    Mouse navigation don't work with Java Plugin.
    Mouse navigation don't work with Java Plugin.
    Forms 10gR2, Sun Java 1.5.0_06 gives mouse problems
    Forms 10gR2, Sun Java 1.5.0_06 gives mouse problems
    Does anybody know a solution to this problem?
    Any help will be really appreciated.
    Regards,
    Victor.

    You need to use 1.5.0_12 or newer. The client SOD is not up-to-date on this specific point. A lot of navigation problems was fixed in this very release.
    The Management team should change this in the client SOD, wonder why they still refer to 1.5.0_06. For Applications, the first 1.5.0 to be certified was _12.
    Also make sure, that you are using the latest Patch 3 for 10.1.2 (10.1.2.3). This patch also contains fixes for a lot of these wellknown issues.
    Hope this helps,

    Hi,
    The multiblock form has a control block having non-key-navigable, non-mouse-navigable buttons. Suppose data is entered into the other data-blocks, and the KEY-COMMIT acion is invoked using the key-combination(CTRL+S), the data is saved. There is no problem now in mouse navigation. But, when after the data entry, the "Save" button(of the control block, mentioned earlier) is pressed, the data is saved...but further, the mouse navigation is totally getting disallowed..
    Is the problem we are facing, due to the property settings we have done. Or, need any additional patchset be installed..
    Help please..
    Thank you,

  • Mouse Navigation

    Hi,
    I have data blocks base on complex views, and have th KEY MODE Property set to Non-Updateble and DML data Target Type to None. I am using these block to retrieve the data on the forms and provide the facility to update the data or Isert the new row, and I have package which I am using to read the every row from the form and using Insert and Update command to update and insert these rows and using commit to commit these rows. but when I hit commit afer that my mouse navigation doesnt work and I cant navigate between the fileds but I can use the key board navigation.
    Any suggestion or idea that can help.
    Thanks

    I am sorry,
    i formulated the problem in the wrong way.
    What really happens is i am trying to insert a new record, and mouse goes directly in the first record displayed.
    I have configured the data block to show 10 records, and when i want to fill the 3-rd record, it doesn't allow me.It goes automatically in the first record.
    I suppose there is no way to avoid this, and start inserting from the third record displayed.

  • Mouse navigation problem in webforms

    Hi,
    The focus does not change from one item to another item in which the mouse pointer is put, i.e, cannot click on any of the other text_items, the focus remains in the original item, and the mouse navigation does not work, in the forms 6i webforms.
    We had this problem prior to installing the Patch4. Later on, it was found that probably the Bug:1501359 could be causing the problem. Then, as suggested fix, Oracle Forms 6i Patchset 4 (Forms 6.0.8.13) was installed, and those problem webforms were tried again(with JInitiator that comes along with Patchset 4). But the same problem was being found again. These problems are found only in those forms that have multiple blocks.
    What additional setting needs to be done? Should the latest available patchset(11?) available be installed? Please help..

  • Mouse navigation don't work with Java Plugin.

    I'm using forms 10g (10.1.2.0.2) with a Java Plugin 1.5.09.
    The mouse navigation limit seems to be broken and I can't use the mouse to navigate.
    The same form using jinit works fine.
    Is there any reason ? Is it a bug ? Any workaround ?
    Tks

    I'm having the same problem
    Trying to switch from Jinitiator to JRE 1.5.0_12
    Forms 10.1.2.0.3
    All the forms come up, but I cannot select a field with the mouse. When I click in a field, the cursor moves momentarily to the new field, but bounces back to the prior field as soon as I release the mouse button. This seems to be happening in every form.
    Can anyone help?

  • Mouse navigation between fields in Sun Java JRE

    We have a lot of forms (few hundred) generated by Oracle Designer 2000 and HeadStart and then converted (by internal Oracle converter part of Developer Suite) to Forms 6i and 10g version. All forms perfectly work with JInitiator (1.3.1.17 and 1.3.1.22) in Forms Web 6i or 10g deployments. Problem occurs if we try to run our forms within Sun Java JRE (1.4 or 1.5 or 1.6) then mouse navigation inside form stops working, ie. if I click in any field in the middle of the form cursor immediately jumps back to the first field of form. I can navigate to the other fields with the keypad without the problem.
    Does anyone have similar problem and managed to solve it?
    Thanks And Regards

    Hello,
    I've installed these patches as indicated, but still i have navigation issues when opening screens already opened and existing in the Window menu. Here is the situation:
    we had oracle application server 10.1.2.0.2. We are using jre1.6 (instead of jinitiator).
    we installed the patches 5983622 and 8306828.
    when we open a screen, everything works fine, no navigation issues among fields. when we open a second screen, then go back to the first screen with the window menu, we loose the focus on the screen. we can click on any item but the cursor is still on the last item visited before opening the second screen. so we have to use the tab key instead of the mouse or close this screen then reopen it.
    Please advice how to treat this problem because it's urgent.
    Thanks in advance

  • How to find out the current number of rows in a form without navigation

    Hi.
    Is there any way to count the rows in a form (block) without navigation to the last record?
    I am modifying CUSTOM.pll and have to count the rows before user commits changes.
    All records are new in this case. Can anyone halp me? Thanks.
    Regards

    no, such a block-property ^unfortunately^ does not exists.
    you can just go to to the block, call the last_record build-in and find out, where the cursor is.
    But with this you call restrictred procedures and their are not everywhere allowed ...
    If you execute a query on a block, may not all records getting retrieved from database.
    For this forms does not know, how many records are really in the block and
    for this there is no build-in like get_block_property ( records_count ).It does exist indeed. GET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('BLOCK',QUERY_HITS);
    Of course, this will return the number of records that would get fetched to the block (based on the where condition), but not the records with NEW status (i.e new records which are not yet committed).

  • Forms 9i Navigation/Input focs

    Got a 9i forms module in which I cannot get input focus on any fields,either by mouse or tab key. Query Execute is about the only function which seems to work. Cannot input Query data or insert new record.
    Created the form manually with Create Insert Update Delete props all set on the data block.
    Also generated the form from Designer - same results - cannot get the cursor to appear ANYWHERE on the form.
    Utterly confused and frustrated - am I doing something really THICK here , or merely the victim of yet another Oracle 'enhancement' ?

    I haven't the faintest idea.What is Jinitiator ? Where do I find it's version nnumber ? The orig. prob. I refer to appears in a table form only. When I create a form in another format it's OK. I'm running on XP

  • Mouse Navigation stops working

    This is weird. I have a multi-forms application running (6i and 10g). At some point somehing seems to happen and I cannot mouse click into any fields in the form. The only way I can move to a new field is with a tab or enter keys. Once this happens, it will be a problem for any new form I open. The only way it seems to fix itself is if I close the entire application and go back in. I put messages in and the 'When-Mouse-Click' trigger is firing. Any ideas?

    you are not the only one with this problem. Pls search in the forum. There are many posts with that topic.
