Having to hit enter after input field

In one of our application once the users has input data in a
field, they do not hit Enter but rather they click on a button. In
Captivate 3, is there a way to validate that input entry without
having to ask the user to hit Enter (hitting enter doesn't happen
in the apps).
thanks in advance.

Welcome to our community, Jack
Indeed you may configure Captivate to do exactly what you
need. If you double-click your Text Entry Box object and look at
the Options tab, you will find a check box allowing you to also
display a Button that is related to the Text Entry Box. The Button
is then used for validation. Note that the Button may also be
customized and made transparent so that you may overlay an image of
the application Button to achieve the same look and feel.
Cheers... Rick

Need to hit Enter after a "silent" install?

I have been trying to automate a hands free install of 32bit and 64bit versions of the latest 11g client for Windows 2008r2 and Windows 7 64-bit and continue to see a prompt to hit Enter after the install is completed. If I am using the -silent switch then why do I need to interact with the install? Is there a -ReallySilent switch?
How is anyone automating the deployment of this version of the Oracle Client in Windows?
This is what I have so far in batch files, using response files I created using the GUI setup.exe method.
%~dp0win32_11gR2_client\client\setup.exe -ignoreSysPrereqs -silent "ORACLE_HOSTNAME=%computername%" -nowelcome -noconfig -responseFile %~dp0ora11g_x86_client_2.rsp
%~dp0win64_11gR2_client\client\setup.exe -ignoreSysPrereqs -silent "ORACLE_HOSTNAME=%computername%" -nowelcome -noconfig -responseFile %~dp0ora11g_x64_client_2.rsp
Any help appreciated
Thanks

I found via appdeploy.com (now called itninja.com - such a great site!) that I might have better luck with OUI.EXE
I tried this and it appears to work so far - some of my switches might not be required or redundant though but an extra switch that doesn't break the install is no skin of my nose.
%~dp0win32_11gR2_client\client\install\oui.exe -waitforcompletion -nowait -force -ignoreSysPrereqs -silent "ORACLE_HOSTNAME=%computername%" -nowelcome -noconfig -responseFile %~dp0ora11g_x86_client_2.rsp

Why can't I load a page by hitting enter after I type it into the location bar? I have to click on the green arrow to load new pages.

When I type a URL into the location bar, I have to click on the green arrow at the right end of the location bar for the new page to load. In previous versions of Firefox you just hit enter to load the new page.

This didn't help my problem. When I restart Firefox in Safe Mode, the problem goes away but none of the other troubleshooting tips help. I noticed today that when I start Firefox in normal mode, I get this error: "TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined." It's a Javascript error, and I also noticed that when I go to the Gmail page in normal mode the cursor isn't automatically placed in the username field like usual. When I start Firefox in safe mode it does this, however.

Text tool: hitting 'enter' after typing a line disengages text tool

When I type text I get no new line when I hit return (enter). This happens whether I've drawn a text box first or if I'm just typing on a line. The text tool seems to "disengage"—it's still selected in the tool box & layer palette, but I no longer have an active cursor. This means I can only type one line of text at a time. Anything typed after hitting return doesn't show up. The fonts themselves work, and the leading is not so great that the text wouldn't fit in the text box or on the page. I'm hoping this is a common problem/bug that someone has encountered before! CS4 on Windows Vista.

How about this:
Go to Edit Keyboard Shortcuts.
Save the current configuration under a new name.
Load the set called Photoshop Defaults.
See if that helps.

I now have to hit enter after clicking on a URL drop down site (never had to do this before) what do I change so it was automatically send me to the URL without hitting enter (like it always used to)...?

just in the last couple of days this changed, it used to be a 1 click and send you there process on this drop down list of the sites I go to most often. How do I change things so it's back to the way it used to be...

Do you still have the plugins enabled (Tools > Add-ons > Plugins) that are used for that streaming?

BPEL Console not showing input fields for process

I'm having a problem with our BPEL processes. When testing them in the BPEL Console the form for entering the input fields does not appear, even when switched to XML entry instead of HTML.
The problem seems to occur in processes which take their input schemas from a different directory from the BPEL process. This was working fine in Oracle 10.1.2. We can successfully load the schema by entering its URL, and if the process is started without entering any data, the input message is correctly generated, just with all fields empty. So it seems like the schema is being found.
When both the input and output schemas are specified inline in the project WSDL file, it works correctly. The problem occurs when referencing the schema in a different location. We have numerous projects which share common schemas, so specifying them all in-line is not a workable solution.
Has anyone else encountered this problem, or found a solution to it?
Thanks for your help.
Howard

I have similar process where I am able to see the instance incomplete process C, the issue is with the present process.
actually process B and C are from production I have designed the new process A, which is calling B and B is calling C.
I have also designed other process A1(new) which is calling B1(existing) and B1 is calling C1(existing), there I am able to see the instance of C1
dont know why it is happening like this for process C
please advice
thanks

How to use wild card character in input field

Hi
I'm creating model in which the Purchase Order information need to be entered in Input Field.
My requirement is search using wild char char as '*'
Let say in input field i gave PO order as 20* then it'll search for all the PO's which starts from 20.
Could you please share some documents/guidelines, for this issue
Thanks and Regards
Puneet

Hi,
You can use the wild card char in the input box.please try below steps.
1.Check whether the input string has ' * ' char using "CONTAINS(text,pattern)" operation.
2.If yes, Replace the ' * ' with space by "REPLACE(text,pattern,repstr)" operation.->consider this result as input2
3.Now , Have a Filter from ur webservice(which gives your Purchase Order information )
and filter it by the condition " BEGINS(WSField,input2)"
the Final expression in the filter will be "_=IF(CONTAINS(input,""),BEGINS(HelpWSField,REPLACE(input,"\","")),true)_"
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Priya

When I type in an address on the address line and hit enter, nothing happens. It used to work. Now i have to hit the icon in the address bar to get it to load. Is there a way to make it load when I hit enter?

I've tried typing in different addresses and none of them load if I just hit "enter" after I finish typing. I'm confused because that's what I've always done in the past. I don't know why this doesn't work anymore.

Yes I had this problem and just now discovered that it was because the add-on 'Omnibar'. I disabled it and now it works fine. Most likely one of your add-ons is causing the problem as TonyE suggested already and lead me to the discovery of my problem in a previous post.

Hitting ENTER causes cursor to jump to other blocks

Hi,
In my custom 6i form, if the user accidentally hits ENTER on any field (null or not null), the cursor jumps to a particular block everytime. How can I stop this event to occur so the cursor stays at that field only?
Thanks.

I guess "Navigation" property of your form is set to block level. Change it to item level.

How to get the vlaue from an input field without hitting the enter button ?

Hello All,
Is there some way to read the values of an input field that was filled in by an user eg ..
String userEntry = wdContect.<UIElement>.value;
So far, I am only able to achieve this using the onEnter property whoch really is not very user friendly since I can only read in the values only if the user hits enter.
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

1. Create a value attribute (MyText) in the controller context
2. Create a value attribute (MyText) in the view context
3. Map view context attribute to controller context attribute
4. Create InputField in the view and map the "value" attribute to the MyText view context attribute
5. Create Action on view (Send)
6. Create Send button and specify Send action as onAction attribute
7. Create executeSend() method on controller
8. onActionSend() implementation:
public void onActionSend(com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDCustomEvent wdEvent )
    //@@begin onActionSend(ServerEvent)
   wdThis.wdGet<controllername>Controller().executeSend();
    //@@end
9. executeSend() implementation:
public void executeSend( )
    //@@begin executeSend()
               // Get MyText
               String MyText = wdContext.currentContextElement().getMyText();

How to submit page by hitting "enter" in a text field - Solution

Hi,
I had this problem yesterday and thought it may come in handy for others who run into the same issue.
My page had 2 text fields. Upon hitting enter in either of the boxes I wanted the page to submit. When only 1 text field was present it worked, however once the second field was added this stopped working.
After reading a bit (http://ppewww.ph.gla.ac.uk/~flavell/www/formquestion.html) I fount that "When there is only one single-line text input field in a form, the user agent should accept Enter in that field as a request to submit the form.". This would explain why it worked with only 1 field, but not with 2.
After doing some testing I found that to make it work with 2 or more text fields, I needed to add a submit button. This is not the same as a button in APEX. In APEX "button" just has a onClick call to a submit function. You need a native HTML submit button.
In order to do that I created text field. Deleted the label, and set the static value to "Search" (this was for my search application). In the page attributes I added the following:
< script language="JavaScript1.1" type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("P1_SEARCH_SUBMIT").type="submit";
< / script >
Note: I added extra spaces in the tags so they would display properly.
This function changes the button type to submit.
Now when I have 2 or more text forms it submits when I hit enter in either one.

Focusing a desired field on hitting enter - af:table

Hi,
I'm trying to implement the following use-case.
Resources(name, description, is_rate_based, rate, quantity, cost) table stores the details of two types of resources - rate based and non-rate based. This data needs to be shown in UI as a click-to-edit, multi-select table.
Now, for any row,
if the resource is rate based (is_rate_based='Y'):
1. Fields Rate & Quantity should be editable and cost field should not be displayed
if the resource is not rate based (is_rate_based='N'):
Fields Rate and Quantity should be disabled and Cost should be editable
Also,
when the user enters a value (for a rate-based resource) in Quantity field and presses ENTER key,
The next row's Quantity field should be focused if the next row has a rate-based resource, otherwise, Cost field should be focused
Similarly,
when the user enters a value (for a non-rate-based resource) in Cost field and presses ENTER key,
Focus should be on next row's Quantity field if the resource in the next row is a rate-based resource, else, cost field should be focused.
While implementing this behavior, I realized that, the framework handles the focus event on hitting enter if all the rows are stamped with identical fields. However, when rows do not have identical fields, focus goes to the first editable field of the next row on pressing ENTER key.
I'm trying to override this behavior by using clientListeners for the Cost and Quantity fields - but couldn't figure out how to do this.
Any pointers/solution for the above case?
Thanks,
Sridhar

Hi,
This happens because every time you hit ENTER, the PAI is triggered and then your PBO of the screen where you havent populated your table control with values from the internal table.
Try this.
-> Repopulate your data in the internal table in the PBO as well.
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
LOOP AT t_tbcl WITH CONTROL tbcl CURSOR tbcl-current_line.
    module display_data. "Populate your table control with data from the internal table t_tbcl.
ENDLOOP.
-> To avoid further problems, clear your internal table in the PAI in a module before the LOOP...ENDLOOP
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
module cleartable.
LOOP AT t_tbcl.
    CHAIN.
      FIELD: t_tbcl-kostl,
             t_tbcl-posnr,
             t_tbcl-ebeln.
      MODULE modify_t_tbcl ON CHAIN-REQUEST.
    ENDCHAIN.
ENDLOOP.
MODULE modify_t_tbcl INPUT.
t_tbcl-mark = 'X'.
MODIFY t_tbcl INDEX tbcl-current_line TRANSPORTING mark. "try including the TRANSPORTING addition as well
ENDMODULE.
module cleartable.
clear t_tbcl.
clear t_tbcl[].

How to get the value entered in input enabled field of a list output?

Hi all,
I am developing a program to display list with two input enabled fields . After users enetered the values into these fields I need to do some calculations based on these values and modify the value of another field in the list.
But i couldn't have an idea how to read the values after users enter into these fields.
Please help me on solving this problem? If possible please provide the sample code.
Thanks,
Aravind.

You can enable disable screen fields in at selection screen output event.
And by using loop at screen.
And for changing the values you can do in initialization event.
I Hope you are doing these in Reports.
