Header and border on a dynamic page passing parameters to a form

I am using portals 10.1.4. I am trying to pass parameters to a form which appears as a portlet on a page.
I am using the dynamic page to pass parameters to that desired form. My problem is this that when the form is displayed with parameters, the header and borders of the portlet disappear.
The check-boxes for header and borders of the portlets on the page are checked. Yet, when for any reason, the parameters are not passed into the dynamic page, the header of the dynamic page and border are displayed. But when the parameters are passed and the form shows up, then the header and borders disappear.
can anyone help me with the following:
- is it the desired behavior?
- how can i get the headers and borders reappear?
thanks

Hi AMN,
I am not sure I follow what you are exactly attempting, can you post a set of steps to reproduce?
Cheers,

Any ideas fellows?
how can we control the border and header of dynamic pages when a form or report is called from them with passed parameters?
will appreciate any helpful experiences.

Need to remove the header and footer regions on one page

Hi,
I have a requirement to remove the header and footer regions on one page only. The regions I'm referring to contain the following:
Header:
Company logo, Home link, Logout link, Preferences link
Footer:
Copyright info, Privacy Statement, Home link, Logout link, Preferences link
These are the standard Oracle header and footer regions/page items, so I am not specifying a particular page name, although it would be the create time cards page we want to modify.
Also, we only want to remove these regions/items from ONE page, not an entire responsibility.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Suzanne

Hi,
In order to hide,
Home link, Logout link, Preferences link
Use this code in the processrequest of the controller on the page on which you want tohide these
OAPageLayoutBean page = pageContext.getPageLayoutBean();
page.prepareForRendering(pageContext);
page.setGlobalButtons((oracle.cabo.ui.UINode)null);
And for hiding the Copyright info, Privacy Statement:
Click on Personalise page link
then Click on Choose Context
Choose "OAFooter" as Scope
and click "Apply"
and then Personalise the Copyright and Privay Statememnt icon and set rendered as False.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Regards,
Abdetu...Hi Abdetu,
There is 3 parameters in the <DevSuiteHome>\forms\server.formsweb.cfg having the same behavior.
Logo
Background
SplashScreen
By default (if you don't have specified them in you [section] they values are inherited from the [default] section) the values are
Logo=
Background=
SplashScreen=
This means you will have the oracle logo, the Forms Services background image in your applet and the oracle splash screen at startup.
*To have nothing shown then just put the value no in front of these 3 parameters*
Logo=no
Background=no
SplashScreen=noYou can also customize that with you own gif files.
For this you have to put your images in a icons.jar file
place it in your <DevSuiteHome>\forms\java where frmall.jar and others are located.
then in your formsweb.cfg :
Archive=frmall.jar, icons.jar
ImageBase=CodeBase
Logo=yourlogo.gif
Background=yourbackground.gif
SplashScreen=yourbeautifullsplachscreen.gifAnd at least if you have a small gif in your icons.jar for the window you can also defining the Icon Filename property in Forms builder. This wile replace the default forms runtime icon.
Hope this helps

Global variables can be used, but you can do what the online help
says ...
Parameters are passed to called forms by means of a parameter
list. A parameter list is a named programmatic construct that is
simply a list of parameter names (called keys) and their values.
You can pass parameter values to forms invoked by the built-in
subprograms CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM, and NEW_FORM. In addition, you
can pass parameter values to other Oracle tools with the
RUN_PRODUCT procedure.
A parameter you include in a parameter list can be either a text
parameter or a data parameter. The parameter type determines how
its value is interpreted.
Text Parameters The value of a text parameter being passed to a
called product is a CHAR string that can represent the following:
n a user-defined form parameter defined in a form invoked
by the CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM, or NEW_FORM built-in subprograms
n a command line or user-defined parameter for a product
invoked with the RUN_PRODUCT built-in subprogram
Data Parameters The value of a data parameter being passed to a
called product is always the name of a record group defined in
the current form. (A record group is a data structure that
stores records derived from a query or through programmatic
assignment.) Data parameters are used to pass data to products
invoked with the RUN_PRODUCT built-in subprogram. You cannot
pass data parameters to forms.
The following table shows the structure of a parameter list that
contains four parameters:
Key Paramtype Value
CITY Text_Parameter 'BOGOTA'
CATEGORY Text_Parameter 'EXPORTS'
MULTIPLIER Text_Parameter '.0275'
NEW_DATA Data_Parameter 'RECORD_GROUP8'

Passing parameters from one form to another

Hi,
I'm trying to pass parameters from 1 form to another. I would be able to call the form, but the parameters are not passed to the calling form. I do not know what's the problem. Basically, the 2nd form shows up with blank values in all the fields. Below is my code. Anybody expert in this, pl. help.
By the way my 1st form is based on PROCEDURE.
declare
s_requestor           number(10);
s_customer_impact      varchar2(4000);
s_creation_date      date;
l_url                varchar2(4000);
blk               varchar2(10) := 'DEFAULT';
begin
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_REQUESTOR',
p_value => 88888);
s_requestor := p_session.get_value_as_number
(p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_REQUESTOR');
s_customer_impact := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2
(p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_CUSTOMER_IMPACT');
s_creation_date := p_session.get_value_as_date
(p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_CREATION_DATE');
l_url:=('/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?
p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=1794837934&
p_arg_names=_show_header&p_arg_values=YES&
p_arg_names=REQUESTOR&p_arg_values='||s_requestor||'&
p_arg_names=CREATION_DATE&p_arg_values='||s_creation_date||'&
p_arg_names=CUSTOMER_IMPACT&p_arg_values='||s_customer_impact);
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.set_target(l_url);
end;

the way to call one form from another and pass values for parameters from the procedure is like this:
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link (
p_arg_names => PORTAL.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2('_moduleid:_show_header:REQUESTOR:CREATION_DATE'),
p_arg_values => PORTAL.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2('1191314879:YES:'||s_requestor||':'||s_creation_date));
and so on.
Hope it works for you

How to open a page from a Form and pass parameters to the form on that page

I found a similar example on this forum, but it did not work for me:
declare
l_names owa.vc_arr;
l_values owa.vc_arr;
i number;
begin
PORTAL.wwpro_api_parameters.retrieve(l_names, l_values);
FOR i in 1..l_names.count
LOOP
htp.p(l_names(i) || ' ' || l_values(i));
END LOOP;
end;
By using this method i get the parameters for the Form, like the session ID, but not the parameters for the Page that the form is displayed in.
Another method I tried:
To open a Form from a Form and pass parameters works fine like this:
--In the After processing page PL/SQL event.
declare
v_id number;
blk varchar2(10):='DEFAULT';
Begin
v_id:=p_session.get_value_as_number (p_block_name=>blk,p_attribute_name=>'A_ID');
if v_id > 0 then
htp.formOpen('PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=2649500412&p_arg_names=_show_header&p_arg_values=YES&p_arg_names=ID&p_arg_values='||to_char(v_id),'post');
htp.formSubmit(NULL,'Upload Files');
htp.formClose;
end if;
End;
But I want to open a Page containing the Form instead of just opening the Form. Is this possible to open a Page and pass paramters to the page, and then let the form inside the Page access the passed paramters. The reason for this is that a Form cannot be based on a page template, or can it? When opening the form i want to keep the left menu, which I can if it is a page based on my template with the left menu.
Best regards
Halvor

Hi,
You can do this by calling the url of the page with the form. You can then use p_arg_names and p_arg_values to pass parameters. In the called form you can get the value from p_arg_names and p_arg_values and assign it to the form field.
You can call this code in the success procedure of the calling form.
declare
v_id number;
blk varchar2(10):='DEFAULT';
v_url varchar2(2000);
Begin
v_id:=p_session.get_value_as_number (p_block_name=>blk,p_attribute_name=>'A_ID');
v_url := <page_url>;
if v_id > 0 then
call(v_url||'&p_arg_names=id&p_arg_values='||v_id);
end if;
End;
In the called form in "Before displaying form" plsql section write this code.
for i in 1..p_arg_names.count loop
if p_arg_names(i) = 'id' then
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_ID',
p_value => p_arg_values(i)
end if;
end loop;
This code picks up the value from p_arg_values and assigns it to the form field.
Hope that helps.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Keeping heading and detail on the same page

Hi, I have a report with a group header section and a detail section. How can I keep the heading section and all the detail section on the same page without starting each group on a new page?
The detail section will have either 2 or 3 records with some of the objects set to grow if the data doesn't fit on one line. This results in several changes of group appearing on the same page which is what I want. However, what I don't want is the header section on one page with the detail section on the next, or the header and some of the detail records on one page with the rest of the detail records on the next. What I would like is the report to start a new page if the header and all the detail records don't fit on the same page but without starting a new page for every group change. How can I achieve this?

you can put the group header and details into a sub report on the old group header section.
then hide the details section

Changing the Column Header and Hiding the Column dynamically???

Hi friends..
I'm new to OBIEE field. I'm working in a OBIEE project that requires to dynamically change the column header, and dynamically hide the column depending on the prompt value.
I know we can dynamically change the table header using the presentation variable but I couldn't do that same thing with column header.
I searched some forums that suggest to use java script for this purpose but I'm not able to do the same also. If anyone had same issue before please help.

toony, I'm not sure it's possible to do all that you want exactly the way you want, but here are some ideas you can pursue.
To dynamically change column headers without javascript, check this blog out...
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2008/01/25/oracle-bi-ee-101332-dynamic-column-headers-using-presentation-variables-sets-and-conditional-formatting/
As far as dynamically hiding a column, I don't think you can do this, but since you don't provide any details on how the PV is supposed to hide a column based on the value, are you talking about hiding a column for one PV value and another (different) column for a different PV value? Or are you talking about hiding one column when a PV has certain values and displaying it when the PV has a different set of values?
I have managed to create both scenarios via a work-around, but the procedures require some writing so I don't want to put both. Please detail how you want your PV to "hide" a column or columns.
P.S. I don't think column selectors will do the trick for you. Basically column selectors work like this: Say you have a report using Sales Region ID, Region Name, and Sales. Now let's say you want the user to choose if he/she wants to see annual sales, or quarter sales or weekly sales, etc. The column selector view would allow you to put the various columns (Year Sales, Quarter Sales, Weekly Sales) as an option the user can select. Once selected, the sales figure will change for the time period selected. For an example of how this is done, check out the section in this "Oracle by Example" link.
Waited too long to publish this... Madan beat me to it, so there is some overlap here...

Trying to use signal in and signal out but couldn't pass parameters

Hi all,
I am trying to use Signal out from 1st iview and trying to get the same parameters to the second iview where this iview gets populated when i click a button in result of first iview.
I have created these two iviews in same model and it deployed without errors.
When i run the first iview and give the parameters and say submit i get the result and when i click a button a new iview opens(requirement) but its not taking the same parameters as i have given in first iview.
Could any one give me suggestions how to use them or where should i correct it.
Thanks
Venkat

Hi,
please follow these steps you will be able to achieve the results:
1.> Go to the form of the first iview.Drag output port and create signal out with proper name.Click the link created in between the signal out and the form and give a proper name(event name). This name you have to mentioned in the button action property.Go to the form and click the button property.Then in action tab you can mentioned the action as custom action.
2.> Configure the signal out means select the fields which you want to transfer to the other iview.
3.> Then go to the other layer and drill down in that.
4.> create a form and drag input port of it and create a signal in and give the same name as you have mentioned in the signal out.
5.> configure the signal in. And give all the fields which you have mentioned in the signal out.(it is case sensitive, so better give the correct names)
6.> Double click the form and select all the fields which you want to be visible on the form.
7.> just save nad deploy the model and you can transfer data between the two iviews.
You can check with this link having same type of issue:

Passing parameters accross multiple forms

I want to call formB from formA and pass parameters while doing it.
BLOCK2 in formA contains a textitem named EMPID and I wand to pass the value in it to textitem named EMPID in BLOCK4 of formB.
I created a parameter list and added items and values to it.
I use call_form with the required entries to call formB.
---- Code used by me for creating parameter in formA and calling formB starts here ------
DECLARE
     PLID PARAMLIST;
BEGIN
     PLID := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('PL');
     IF NOT ID_NULL (PLID) THEN
          DELETE_PARAMETER ('PL','P_EMPID');
     ELSE
          PLID := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('PL');
     END IF;
     ADD_PARAMETER('PL', 'P_EMPID', TEXT_PARAMETER, :BLOCK2.EMPID);
     CALL_FORM('C:\Project\formB', HIDE, NO_REPLACE, NO_QUERY_ONLY, 'PL');
END;
----------------------- Code ends here ---------------------------------
I added a parameter in object navigator/parameters and named it P_EMPID of type Char and length 11 (b'coz, :BLOCK2.EMPID is Varchar2(11))
Also, I have written the following code in formB:
:BLOCK4.EMPID := :PARAMETER.P_EMPID;
I have written this code in the following three places of formB:
1) WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE --> form-level trigger
2) PRE-FORM --> form-level trigger
3) PRE-QUERY --> block-level(BLOCK4) trigger
Additionally, I also tried using GET_PARAMETER_ATTR to get the parameter value in WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE of formB. It is as follows:
-------- Code for retreiving parameter in WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE of formB starts here ---------
:BLOCK4.EMPID := :PARAMETER.P_EMPID;
DECLARE
     P_EMPID VARCHAR2(11);
     PLID PARAMLIST;
     PARAM_TYPE NUMBER;
     CURRENT_VALUE VARCHAR2(11);
BEGIN
     PLID := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('PL');
     IF NOT ID_NULL (PLID) THEN
          GET_PARAMETER_ATTR('PLID','P_EMPID',PARAM_TYPE,CURRENT_VALUE);
          :BLOCK4.EMPID := CURRENT_VALUE;
     END IF;
END;
----------------------- Code ends here ---------------------------------
In spite of all the above, when formB tries to start, I get FRM-47023 No such parameter named P_EMPID exists in form formB
What do I need to do?
Thanks,
Preethi

I suppose you shouldn't try to extract parameter value from parameter list in WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE as Forms do it for you. Just use :parameter.P_EMPID. Of course, you may also use global variable or some package variable (if sharing library datf), or record group, created with GLOBAL_SCOPE.
