Help: Browse, Open command buttons

I have a textbox in a form, i would like to have three command buttons:
(Browse, open, Remove).
when a user click the Brouse button, it should open the c:/directory allowing for choosing a file and when a user choos a file, a bath should be
stored in that textbox and into that field in my DB.
Also when a user click the open button, it should open the file.
Also, when a user click the remove button, it should remove the bath.
I really appreciate your help.

I still don't know how to solve the problem that i explained in the previous message.
Is it possible to do that in Forms Developer, if so how??

How to open an pdf report On click of some command button in adf

Hi,
I have to generate some pdf report or some pdf document on click of some command button .Could any one please tell me how to achieve this.
suggestion would be appreciated,
Regards
Vinay kumar

So what you're saying is the PDF already exists on your web server, and all you want to do is navigate in the browser from your ADF application to the PDF, yes? If that's correct, let's assume you're PDF exists at:
http://www.acme.com/someCustomPath/myFantasticReport.pdf
Consider the <af:goButton> or <af:goLink> controls, which include the destination attribute. As such you'd do something like this:
<af:goButton destination="http://www.acme.com/someCustomPath/myFantasticReport.pdf"/>As you can see the "go" controls are for navigating to resources not inside your ADF application, while the "command" controls are reserved for navigation among resources in your application.
In order to generate the destination URL, just replace the destination attribute with an EL expression that retrieves it's value from a backing bean:
<af:goButton destination="#{myBean.giveMeTheUrl}"/>Regards,

I have Java set up as a plug in but cann't get into yahoo games. Where is the firefox button when I have the browser open? Only button I see gives me close, resize,

I have java installed and properly working as a plug in. Why can I not get into Yahoo games and play Card Games? Where is the firefox button when I have the browser open? Only button that looks like anything for firefox allows me to restore, move, size, minimize, maximize, and close. That button is top left hand corner location.

I recently purchased a second hand new macbook air, although it was second hand to me the previous owner had never actually turned it on.
Something doesn't make sense here, though I'm not saying the previous owner is lying....

When using Firefox as my browser, my "back" button no longer works? And by the way...getting help is a real pain in the butt on this site!!!!!

When using Firefox as my browser, my "back" button no longer works? And by the way...getting help is a real pain in the butt on this site!!!!!

see -- http://kb.mozillazine.org/Kill_application
which explains how to completely exit (quit) your Mozilla application
Try closing Firefox completely
*Close Firefox properly '''File > Exit''', not with the "X" which just closes the window.
*Use the Windows Task Manager "Processes" tab to make sure that firefox.exe is not running and also that the plugin-container.exe is not running.
If that does not work, try restarting the system.
If still no luck try restoring bookmarks from last backup, or better create your own .json backup and restore from that.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox#Creating_bookmark_backups
*''If you had to go this far, please provide feedback if restoring bookmarks alone fixed the problem. I think I may have done that once with success, but never see that suggested -- I'd try most anything to not lose history or bookmarks. But then I could restore files from my profile and restore latest bookmarks backup from current profile.''
The following will result in complete loss of history if it comes down to deleting places.sqlite, so rename files rather than deleting. With Firefox down.
Of course you have backups of your profile you could replace rename and
replace those files instead.

Open Report From a Command Button - Script Instruction

I want to open a report from a dashboard via a command button.
What would be the script to do that?
Also, how would I get back to the dashboard from the report once it's opened?

Console.Writeln("cmdRpt")
ActiveDocument.Sections["Report"].Activate()
The code above is for a command button with the script to navigate to a particular "report".
To navigate back to Dashboard, simply select the dropdown menu below the menu icons.
Good luck.

CS3 Help menu opens after every command

I have a user that every time they finish a command like create a new document or rotate and object the help menu opens. This interrupts their workflow since you have to click off the menu before continuing. I have tried deleting the preferences but that didn't help. I have also booted into safe boot and this does resolve the issue. Is there an other setting or preference I can remove that would resolve this issue?

If I recall.. around the time of CS3 there were issues with Unsanity "haxies" causing this as well as other small third party OS add ons.
You might...
A) Include what OS you are using
B) If it's Mac OS, try booting into Safe Mode by holding down the shift key when starting up the system and see if the issue goes away.

Open a new window while clicking on the command button

Hi,
Can I open a pdf report in a new window when adf command button is clicked?
I am using jdev11g

Hi John,
I found the goButton's destination expression do not read value from any controls e.g.: Input Text.
Is there anyway to read some value, that input by user not in the db, on the screen?
e.g.: I have a Input Text for user to input a date to print the report. I've tried to binding the control in backingBean, but I get a null value from the goButton's destination function.
the jspx:
<af:inputText label="Search" id="it1"
                        value="#{backingBeanScope.backing_goUrl.it1Value}" autoSubmit="true"/>
<af:goButton text="goButton 1" id="gb1" targetFrame="_blank"
                       destination="#{backingBeanScope.backing_goUrl.searchURL}"/>in the backing bean:
public class GoUrl {
private String it1Value;
public String getIt1Value() {
    return it1Value;
public void setIt1Value(String it1Value) {
    this.it1Value = it1Value;
public String getSearchURL() {
    String s = getIt1Value();
    return "http://www.google.com/search?hl=zh-tw&q="+s; // the result of s is always null.
}Cheers,

My Mac acts as if I am holding down the Command button. Help?

Every few minutes, why I try to type something, my Mac flips out and it tries to open applications, or print web pages. It acts like I am holding down the Command button, which I am not. When I try and open an application, it will open up the applications folder with the application that I want to open highlighted. I can not find ANYONE with this same issue, and I sure hope that someone knows how to fix it. Not happy about this right now.

You may have a faulty keyboard. Try an external keyboard, either wired or wireless, and see if the problem stops.

Why when I press the command button and number two, yahoo comes up instead of the 'at' key? how can I fix the command shortcuts? help me please.

why when I press the command button and number two, yahoo comes up instead of the ‘at’ key? how can I fix the command shortcuts? help me please.

try pressing the shift and 2 key to get the @ symbol.
if that doesn't work for you - go to system preferences - keyboard and change it there.
good luck

basicForm.setCommandListener((CommandListener)this);You're trying to cast your MIDlet subclass (aka, "this") to a CommandListener, but you haven't specified that it implements that interface. So you need to declare the class as follows:
public class test1 extends MIDlet implements CommandListener {shmoove

Where are the settings for the "open" command, located at /usr/bin/open?

I have Windows XP installed on a partition on my Macbook and I use Parallels to access some of the Windows applications.
When I am in Mac OS X, and I don't even have a virtual machine running, if I enter the following command in the terminal, I get some really strange behavior:
/usr/bin/open -a firefox http://localhost/~myname/somewebpage.html
The open command will launch firefox within Mac OS X and display the page, but, it WILL ALSO TRY TO LAUNCH FIREFOX VIA PARALLELS. So, it starts a Parallels session and tries to launch Firefox. I see the Firefox icon in my dock twice, once normally, and once with the Parallels version of the Firefox icon. But, I cannot view the Parallels instance of Firefox.
In order to debug this, I removed Firefox from Mac OS X (deleted Firefox.app from my applications folder) and I un-installed it from the windows partition using Add/Remove programs in windows.
Now, running the open command as stated above launches Safari in Mac OS X and it still launches parrallels.
Where is the list of application associations that the "open" command uses? I assume there is some incorrect associate that is causing this but, I have no idea how to find it.
Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

Thank you for your reply.
I actually checked out the man page for "open" but, I was unable to find LaunchServices in the finder. I was hoping there would be some sort of manifest, or application map, within LaunchServices that might be the source of my problem.
Regarding using the full path: Good suggestion. That will clear it up when I use the command line, or if I were writing my own app, etc...unfortunately, I became aware of this problem because Netbeans is using the command in the abbreviated form I posted above (to launch web applications I am debugging), and I can't edit it.
I removed Firefox from both Windows and Mac OS X on my machine, and tested the Netbeans functionality, it launched my application in Safari with no errors. I reinstalled Firefox on my Mac OS X partition and selected it in Netbeans preferences as the browser to use when debugging an app. When I tried to debug an application in Netbeans again, I got the same behavior...parallels launched. Ugh.
There was a folder, on the Windows side of things, called something like Parallels\Shared Applications. It had a shortcut to Firefox in it but, I removed that before doing my testing. I was hoping there would be something similar on the Mac OS X side but, I haven't been able to find anything.
Thank you both for your help. I think I might need to visit the Parallels forums for this one.

How to recognize web browser refresh command in bsp code

Hi,
I have designed a bsp page on my solman system on which there are some buttons. When I refresh the web browser my last button command is executed again. Is there any way to prevent the last bsp command when I refresh the web browser.
Regards,

Hello Ekrem,
I developed standard BSP (Page With Flow Logic) and I checked it behavior.
From what I saw: when I pressed the Refresh button it didn't get into OnInputProcess method. only to OnIntialization method, so the button doesn't executed again.
Try to clear event variables after you use it, may be it will help.
Good Luck

Command button onclick="history.go(-1)" not work as back button

Hi,
I'm using Jdev 10.1.3 on WinXP running standalone oc4j.
Does anyone has experience in implementing command button with onclick="history.go(-1) ? Mine did not work as a back button. It simply stayed on the same page.
Any idea?

cor-el, I started Firefox in the Safe Mode as recommended. It looked and worked fine. Same after I closed and reopened it. As suggested, I shut down and restarted and so far it is operating "normally." Pages open on the first try and the back button works just fine. The double headers are gone and all my Bookmarks are in place. I did not change any settings or stop any functions (add-on's, etc).
Hopefully this has solved the issue. Only time will tell. Thanks for your help. I also have a long list of other things to try from Safe Mode if the issue returns.
I appreciate your prompt help. Larry.
