Help: Passing parameter to WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT problem.

In the following sample code:
DECLARE
rep_url varchar2(2000);
BEGIN
rep_url:=/reports/rwservlet?server=repserv10g@fnimphiu-pc&report=reptest.rdf
||&desformat=htmlcss&destype=cache&userid=scott/tiger@orcl
||&p_deptno=10&paramform=no;
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT(rep_url,_blank);
END;
Instead of hard coding, I tried to pass a made assignment to &p_deptno by writing:
&p_deptno=:PARAMETER.p_depno
where :PARAMETER.p_depno is an existing parameter with value. It does not work.
Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance.
Jimmy

Not sure if this is what you want, are you trying to hide the value or just assign it when web-show_document is called:
rep_url:=/reports/rwservlet?server=repserv10g@fnimphiu-pc&report=reptest.rdf
||&desformat=htmlcss&destype=cache&userid=scott/tiger@orcl
||&p_deptno='||:PARAMETER.p_deptno||'&paramform=no;
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT(rep_url,_blank);
You will see the value in the URL, but it will populate the value when web.show_document is called.

Web.show_document problem

I use the web.show_document(url,target) built-in to call a web report from a form
when i replace the target with _blank the report doesn't be called, however when i
replace the target with self,parent and _top, the report is called.
I want to call the report in a new window so i should use _blank option Please tell
me how can i put the target equal _balnk.
Note : When i run the form from forms builder, it calls the report and everything is
OK, However when i run it from the web(using internet explorer 6), it doesn't call
the report.
please tell me what is the problem with me ?

Martin,
the problem isn't with web.show_document but with teh Adobe plugin that can only run with one instance in a Webbrowser. Web.Show_document - seen technically - is nothing else than a URL requests no longer under the control of Forms

Help - Passing parameter to report using page parameter

I have a SQL Report on a page
The report query is
select * from scott.emp where deptno = :department
The URL for the page containing the report is:
http://developer03.fis:7777/portal/page?_pageid=95,36455&_dad=portal&_schema=PORTAL
I have added a page parameter = departnment
and associated the page parameter to the report bind variable in the Portlet Parameter Values as follows:
department = Page Parameter, department
I displayed the page by going to the above URL
and then added &department=10 to the end of the URL in the browser address.
I expected the report to display records for deptno = 10, but the query didn't return any records.
Anyone know what's wrong??
Thanks Larry

Yes, except you need to add &department=10 to the end of the page URL, not what I had.
Look at
How to pass values from a Page to portlet in Portal.
http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=FOR&p_id=335031.996

Web.show_document working with abnormal parameter

I was opening some web pages from forms 10g using:
web.show_document(url, '_blank');
in a button pressed trigger. That worked fine, except it continually opened new pages. If the button is pressed 10 time, 10 pages opened one after another. I was giving warning to the user about this quirk.
Then while debugging I happened to edit the code and change it to:
web.show_document(url, '_blank;');
With the semicolon at the end of _blank parameter the pages now open in one browser window, replacing itself if the button is repeatedly pressed. This is exactly the functionality I want. However, I can't find any documentation that uses any parameter for web.show_document other then the standard ones without semicolons included.
Does anyone know if this is safe to do?

Hi,
You can use below different parameters depends on your requirements. To view documentation press ctrl+h in forms builder, use search feature to locate the topic.
'_self' Causes the document to load into the same frame or window as the source document.
'_parent' Causes the target document to load into the parent window or frameset containing the hypertext reference. If the reference is in a window or top-level frame, it is equivalent to the target _self.
'_top' Causes the document to load into the window containing the hypertext link, replacing any frames currently displayed in the window.
'_blank' (default) Causes the document to load into a new, unnamed top-level window. Note that these targets are lowercase and enclosed in single quotation marks.
hope this help you.

Can I use web.show_document with forms name parameter ?

Hi All,
I need to pass URL to web.show_document but with form name too. Is it possible?
I'd like to do something like web.show_document('url?report=myReport','_blank')
Thanks in advance

Yes, you can use any valid URL within web.show_document

Problem when using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT and passing in lexical parameter

Hi,
I got a blank page with error "An error has occured while trying to use this document" when I tried to use web.show_document and passing a lexical parameter to 10g report on 10gAS. The URL in the web.show_document is:
http://<srvname>:<portnum>/reports/rwservlet?server=repserver90&report=myrpt.rdf&destype=Cache&desformat=pdf&userid=<usr>/<pw>@<db>&where_clause=where%20product_type%20in%20('REPORT')
If I change the desformat to htmlcss, it is fine to display the report. But doesn't work with desformat=pdf. The pdf file has been generated in the cache. Why can't it display on the screen.
Also I tried to use double quote the value for where_clause. The pdf report showed up. But it ignored the where clause.
Experts please help.
Ying

I use lexical parameters and they work fine, but I use a parameter list. The code is contained in a form that is called by all forms that wish to run a report. This way you only need the logic for printing in a single form. If you want the form, email me at [email protected]

Passing parameter to Called form through Web.Show_document.

i am calling a form say 'form2.fmx' from 'form1.fmx' using web.show_document. the parameter is concatenated with the URL string properly but this parameter is not accessible in the called form.
Please Help
thanks

i am running forms Of 10G developer suit. i want to call and pass a parameter
'emp_no'(employee no) to a form say 'form2.fmx' from the form say 'form1.fmx' on button
click. so i have created a parameter named "emp_no" in the object navigator of "form2.fmx".
in form1.fmx, i am using web.show_document(URL) function as given below.
web.show_document('http://111.111.111.11:8889/forms90/f90servlet?form=form2.fmx&emp_no=7156&userid=scott/tiger@mysid','_blank');
This function successfully call the "form2.fmx" but in this form the value of parameter
"emp_no" is null even when i have passed it in the URL (as shown in the above code line)
i.e; the value of emp_no is null.
Note :
7156 is the value of emp_no parameter.
111.111.111.11 is the supposed ip address. etc.

Problems with Secure web.show_document! Nimphius Help!!

In my application, every report node in the menu calls a form which loads the parameters for the report. Ive read the secure web.show_document whitepaper, and i've done everything on the white paper and everytime I try to open the form that invokes the java bean "USERID_BEAN" the form crashes the application.
Since no errors can be found on a application crash, I tried to compile it in forms and run it as a stand alone form. This is the error I get.

If I am remembering correctly, some changes were necessary in order to make this work with 10.1.2.3. So, if you are using the old jar which you used in previous versions, I would recommend obtaining the one specifically updated for 10.1.2.3. Refer back to the OTN page which has the download and choose the link that references the new version:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/techlisting10gR2.html
Be sure to clear the client Jar cache before re-testing. This is not the same as the browser cache.

Problem with web.show_document with Jinitiator and Firefox

Not sure Firefox 2.0 is officially certified with Forms 9.0.4.1 and Jinitiatorbut regardless we have some users who want to use this combination. Everything seems to work fine except for the calls to web.show_document which opens a new browser window and displays some html etc.
The problem is that even though the client Forms JVM is Jinitiator (1.3.1.18 or .21) when the call to web.show_document occurs somehow the Sun Java Plugin starts and having the two JVM's at once causes a fatal crash in Firefox. Can anyone suggest a way to preven the second JVM from opening?
When the user uses the Sun Plug as the client Forms JVM there is no problem as the second JVM does not open. Unfortunately some users insist on Jinitiator with Firefox hence the problem. -quinn

James,
This whole applet embedded in a browser model for webforms is driving us batty at times. The list of problems includes:
1) Users are constantly tempted by browser controls and accidentally do all sorts of things to get them in trouble. This has included but not limited to using the navigation arrows, jumping off to read their email in the same window as the form and returning to a dead forms session, minimizing, resizing, blurring off to another window and then returning back by clicking on the title bar of the browser and wondering why the form doesn't tab etc.
Sure hobbling the browser by opening with limited functionality is a possibility but not a complete solution.
2) New versions of browsers seem to break something. Both IE 7 and Firefox 2 have their own problems with web.show_document, especially file associations such as CSV and DBF and trying to open things in Excel in IE7.Firefox seems to have less problems for some yet some some oddities like the one that started this thread (and 2.0 opening new windows in tabs by default instead of windows).
3) JVM jigsaw puzzle. Is it Jinit or Sun, which versions? Which combinations of browser version and JVM works.
4) General fragility of the whole architecture. Running a client JVM in a web browser on top of a PC Operating system connectiong to a forms server over a network embedded in a Java Container server on a full blown web server running on a unix operating system is pushing the bubble. Throw in the mix that any of these components can be combined in numerous ways makes one wonder how it works as well as it does.
Still users randomly getting dropped connections to forms server (network gltches?). General sluggishness (poorly written forms?). Periods of users with unduplicatable errors primarily network related it would appear.
General feel that it is not rock solid stable. Perusing metalink documents on performance and tuning gives too much and too general info to troubleshoot so just shrug shoulders and say 'network problem'.
What's the solution? Java webstart would seem to help at least with the browser realted issues but is that supported and documented how to use yet. Also we'd lose web_show_document which is critical (could it be replaced by webutil calls to open browser?).
