Help Creating a Dynamic Grid?

I have some experience in flash and actionscript, but not much beyond the classroom in a book tutorials, etc.
I am working on an idea and just need a little help figuring out where to begin.
I would like to create a simple 2D interactive grid. The user should be able to increase and decrease the number of axis (both X and Y simultaneously) that compose the grid, and also the scale of the grid itself (Zoom in and Out).
If this goes well enough, I would like to be able to plot graphical content on the grid that visually changes as the grid itself changes. They should, in some way, be linked to one another and correspondingly affected by the same two parameters. This, however, would be a second step. I am more concerned with the base grid model at this point.
ANY help would be very much appreciated!

It is not clear from your post what exactly you need to do. Perhaps some visual (simple image) will help us understand your vision and use cases.
Meanwhile, I have a post on my blog about how to compose dynamic grid:

The same principals can be applied to drawing other grid related visuals.

Creating a dynamic grid using actionscript

Hello all:
I am working on a Flash project which requires that the user
input 2 values. These two values will be used as height and width
to generate a dynamic grid. I am new to actionscript and am
struggling with how to create the 2 input fields and pass the
values to actionscript by an event such as the user pressing
return. The code below will create the grid correctly based upon
the hardcoded variable values hightlighted, but I need the user to
enter the values and press return to generate the grid.
Can anyone suggest the actionscript required to capture the 2
values, send them to actionscript with an event such as pressing
return and then have AS generate the grid width and height based
upon the user input. The i (10) and j (10) values in line 4 and 5
are the values that I need to have the user input to generate the
grid.
Any help will be most appreciated!
initX = 0;
initY = 0;
counter = 0;
for (var i = 1; i<=10; i++) {
for (var j = 1; j<=10; j++) {
counter++;
grid_container.attachMovie("cellMC", "cell"+counter,
counter);
grid_container["cell"+counter]._x = initX;
grid_container["cell"+counter]._y = initY;
grid_container["cell"+counter].onRelease = function() {
cellName.text = this._name;
initX += 30;
initY += 30;
initX = 0;

Thanks for the quick reponse kglad. I will give it a
go.

Using DW to create a dynamic, grid-based website

I am a novice to this whole web design thing but I have big dreams of accomplishing a big goal and designing my own website.
I am aiming to create a site similar in concept and design to this one: http://dynamit.us
I am looking to replicate the multi-sized "content boxes" using a grid (which I know can be easily done in DW), and I am looking to have my website automatically "pull" content when the scroll bar reaches the bottom of the page (Facebook is another example of a website that uses this feature).
I am NOT concerned with replicating the animation(s) on the dynamIt website, as can be seen on the photos that have the magnifying glass in the top right corner.
I am thinking about biting the bullet and upgrading my trial version of DW to the full package, but I want to make sure that I am purchasing the correct software to achieve the result I'm aiming to achieve.
Can I create a somewhat simplified version of this website (dynamit.us) using just Dreamweaver (and maybe PS for photo editing)? How do I build a site that pulls "past" or "old" content from a library and "updates" on the page every time the scroll bar reaches the bottom of the page (Infinite Scrolling)?
THANK YOU!

Dreamweaver is a great tool. It will aid you in achieving your goals. But it won't make you an instant success at professional web development any more than purchasing a fancy, expensive camera makes you an instant success at photography.
How much experience do you have with with web design theory, HTML, CSS, client-side (JavaScript), Server-side (PHP) and databases (MySql)?
Ultimately, a working knowledge of your craft is primary. The tools you use are secondary.

Help me to achieve my goal: creating a dynamic CQ5 website from a CRX Imported Site

Hello everyone.
For two weeks now, i'm trying to create a dynamic content CQ5 website from an imported CRX site.
What I already did and where I am now:
Step 1 - I have imported a website using the CRX Import Site tool.
Step 2 - I have done some mappings in my imported site images and texts. In the CRX content repository estructure, I can found the mappings as
unstructured nodes, at "etc/designs/mysite/dev/mappings", the component properties matching the components I selected in the component extractor;
Step 3 - I have done some extractions in my imported site images and texts. In the CRX content repository estructure, I can found the extracted components
at "apps/mysite/resources/images" (the last two ones I created myself);
Step 4 - After done all these steps, I acessed the Web Sites CQ5 menu and selected the "New Site" option, in the "New..." button. A "MySite Blueprint" is avaliable
to be selected as a Blue Print to my new site, but If I select this one and create my new site, not all the mapped components can be manipulated or selected and some
mappings just show on as an empty selection box in the page, where I am able to insert images, for exemple.
In short, after all these steps, I still can't do what I want with my mapped components and the new site is, basically, the same as the imported. Not every mapped components can be selected and edited and I can't change my site template or content (the far I got here is add a new image in the site, but without the liberty to change the position).
So, what I'm forgetting? Is there some step that I don't getting through? Maybe I need to work on the template created by the site importer?
Is there some material or media that can help me or maybe add knowledge to me?
Already read the "Site importer" and "Components" in Adobe CQ5 Documentation but don't get me far from where I am now.
If someone can help me to make this process better, with more liberty on my new site and the possibility to control all the components, adding new ones
or editing the existent ones, I'll be very gratefull and with a great new knowledge.
Operational System: Windows Server 2008
CQ Version: CQ 5.4.0.20110218
Thanks.

I want to do this using the site importer because I want to show my clients how we can make content management and experience customizations a lot easier starting by their own websites.
So, importing my customer website and transforming it in a new CQ website is the way to show this.
Anyway, thanks in advance and I'm going to look at the page component for the website that I imported.
If someone got another tip or hint, I'll be very thankfull.

Create a dynamic form where selected text boxes appears, based on options chosen in a drop-down box

HELP!!! Can anyone please provide some guidance on how to create a dynamic form where selected text boxes appears, based on options chosen in a drop-down box.
I have a form which – based on the department that's selected from a drop-down box – will have different form fields/text boxes, etc, made available.
Is this possible in LiveCycle, if so, can you please provide the script/info - as needed.
Thanks,

In the preOpen event of the second dropdown list you put something like (in formCalc):
if (dropdown1 == 1) then
$.clearItems()
$.setItems("Year, 2 Year, 3 Year")
elseif (dropdown1 == 2) then
$.clearItems()
$.setItems("3 Year, 4 Year")
endif

How to create a dynamic RTF report which creates dynamic columns based on dynamic column selection from a table?

Hi All,
Suppose I have table, whose structure changes frequently on daily basis.
For eg. desc my_table gives you following column name on Day 1
SQL > desc my_table;
Output
Name
Age
Phone
On Day 2, two more columns are added, viz, Address and Salary.
SQL > desc my_table;
Output
Name
Age
Phone
Address
Salary
Now I want to create an Dynnamic RTF report which would fetch data from ALL columns from my_table on daily basis. For that I have defined a concurrent program with XML as output type and have attached a data template/data definition to it which takes in XML as input and gives final output of conc program in EXCEL layout. I am able to do this for constant number of columns, but dont know how to do it when the number of columns to be displayed changes dynamically.
For Day 1 my XML file should be like this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<dataTemplate name="XYZ" description="iExpenses Report" Version="1.0">
<dataQuery>
<sqlStatement name="Q2">
<![CDATA[
SELECT Name
,Age
,Phone
FROM my_table
]]>
</sqlStatement>
</dataQuery>
<dataStructure>
<group name="G_my_table" source="Q2">
<element name="Name" value="Name" />
<element name="Age" value="Age" />
<element name="Phone" value="Phone" />
</group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
And my Day 1, EXCEL output from RTF template should be like this.
Name     Age     Phone
Swapnill     23     12345
For Day 2 my XML file should be like this. With 2 new columns selected in SELECT clause.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<dataTemplate name="XYZ" description="iExpenses Report" Version="1.0">
<dataQuery>
<sqlStatement name="Q2">
<![CDATA[
SELECT Name
,Age
,Phone
,Address
,Salary
FROM my_table
]]>
</sqlStatement>
</dataQuery>
<dataStructure>
<group name="G_my_table" source="Q2">
<element name="Name" value="Name" />
<element name="Age" value="Age" />
<element name="Phone" value="Phone" />
<element name="Address" value="Address" />
<element name="Salary" value="Salary" />
</group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
And my Day 2, EXCEL output from RTF template should be like this.
Name     Age     Phone     Address     Salary
Swapnill     23     12345         Madrid     100000
Now, I dont know below things.
Make the XML dynamic as in on Day 1 there must be 3 columns in the SELECT statement and on Day 2, 5 columns. I want to create one dynamic XML which should not be required to be changed if new columns are added in my_table. I dont know how to create this query and also create their corresponding elements below.
Make the RTF template dyanamic as in Day1 there must 3 columns in EXCEL output and on Day 2, 5 columns. I want to create a Dynamic RTF template which would show all the columns selected in Dynamic XML.I dont know how the RTF will create new XML tags and how it will know where to place it in the report. Means, I can create RTF template on Day 1, by loading XML data for 3 columns and placing 3 XML tags in template. But how will it create and place tags for new columns on Day 2?
Hope, you got my requirement, its a challenging one. Please let me know how I can implement the required solution using RTF dynamically without any manual intervention.
Regards,
Swapnil K.

Hi All,
I am able to fulfil above requirement. Now I am stuck at below point. Need your help!
Is there any way to UPDATE the XML file attached to a Data Definition (XML Publisher > Data Definition) using a standard package or procedure call or may be an API from backend? I am creating an XML dynamically and I want to attach it to its Data Definition programmatically using SQL.
Please let me know if there is any oracle functionality to do this.
If not, please let me know the standard directories on application/database server where the XML files attached to Data Definitions are stored.
For eg, /$APPL_TOP/ar/1.0/sql or something.

Swapnil K.

How to create a dynamic hyperlink which point to a BLOB column

Hello,
I am fighting with the issue for about 2 days.
My purpose is to use Oracle Report Builder to build a report of our employee directory which contains employee's information and also employee's picture. The requirement is that our report is going to generate a html file to our web server. By creating a dynamic hyperlink to the Employee's name in the report output file (the html file generated to our web server), it should then display the corresponding employee's picture which is a BLOB column stored in our oracle database.
I only can create the hyperlink for the employee's name if the link is static, like 'http://www.google.com
But from the Oracle Reports 10g Release2 (10.1.2), about the exmaple 1: Dynamic hyperlink, I refered the link
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/state/content/navId.3/navSetId._/vtTopicFile.htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs%7Crwcontxt%7Cprops%7Cpi_lay_hyperlink%7Ehtm/
The link gave he following example shows a value for the Hyperlink property that specifies a link to a destination identified dynamically:
'DEPT_DETAILS_' || LTRIM(TO_CHAR(:DEPTNO))
where :DEPTNO is a column value retrieved from the database at runtime.
I tried as the same way to want it dynamcially shows the column :EMP_PHTOT, which is one BLOB column, but it was failed.
Anyone knows how to implement this? Any inputs is appreciated!
Thanks,
Jing

How to create a dynamic action from link column in classic report

I Have an apex page that display a modal window utilizing jquery. In the modal window I have a classic report with a link column that I want to capture its click event.
I was thinking I could create a dynamic action with selection type=jquery selector. Not for sure if I need to do anything on link column and do not know the syntax
for jquery selector. Would appreciate any help or direction???

Thank you for your response. I am very new to Jquery so don't understand all that well.
What I did:
I created a dynamic action
Event: Click
Selection Type: jQuery Selector
jQuery Selector: tdheaders
Created True Actions
I created an alert to see if this is being executed.
Alert 'I made it here'
What I have:
I created a report region with the following query:
Select empno, ename, 'SELECT' from emp
where (ename like '%'||ltrim(rtrim(:P2_SEARCHPU))||'%'
or :P2_SEARCHPU is null)
I created 'SELECT' column as Link Column
Report Attributes
Link Text Select
Target Page in this Application
Page 2
Region Header
<div id="ModalForm2" title="Employee List" style="display:none">
Region Footer
</div>
This report is displayed in a modal form when a button is clicked.
Code for modal window in Page Header
<script type="text/javascript">
$( function() {
$('#ModalForm2').dialog(
{ modal : true ,
autoOpen : false ,
buttons : {
Cancel : function() {
closeForm2();
function openForm2()
$('#ModalForm2').dialog('open');
function closeForm2()
$('#ModalForm2 input[type="text"]').val('');
$('#ModalForm2').dialog('close');
</script>
I am trying to capture the click event on the link column of the report in the modal form. I want to pass a couple of column values
back to the main form and close the modal window. I do not want to do the submit that happens if I click on the link column and link back to the main page(2)
If I let the submit to happen, all other entered fields are cleared on my main form.
Just don't understand the jQuery selector. I have no problem catching the button clicks on the modal form.

Create a dynamic attribute for each user

Hi All,
I request you all to let me know how to give an approach to the following requirement.
REQUIREMENT: I have to create a dynamic attribute in UME for each user and the read the attribute on lead selection of a table having list of Users.
                         On lead selection, the dynamic attribute value should be either true or false. Based on this value the rest of the application specific operations wil be taken care.
                          If a particular User does not have the dynamic attribute associated to it, then we need to create the same.
