Help regarding HTML Textarea in JSP

I have a textarea in my JSP where if the text entered is </TEXTAREA> it considers it to be the code to end the Textarea.
The code i have used is :
<TEXTAREA cols="30" name="<%=fieldName + template.getFieldId()%>" ><%=fieldValue%></TEXTAREA>
When the form is saved with the text ' </Textarea> abcd ' in the textarea then the page if retrived after saved is scrambled.

You will want to escape those nasty < and > characters that are in your text.
Turn them into < and > in your HTML and you should be ok.
(plug time for JSTL and EL again)
Using <c:out > tag in JSTL automatically escapes these nasty characters for you, unless you ask it not to.
Struts provides a similar tag I believe.
Good luck,

Hi,
That did'nt solve my problem. Actually i am trying to get the arraylist data one by one into different textareas. There are two arrays one is quesArray and the other quesIdArray. I need the quesIdArray in the individual text areas.How can i achieve this?
I am using the following code to do that.
<logic:iterate id="item" name="selectionCriteriaForm" indexId="index" property="quesArray">

TEXTAREA in JSP dosen't work

TEXTAREA in JSP dosen't wrap to next line and I use the following syntax.
<input type='textarea' name='code' rows='2' cols='30' style='width: 180px;height:30px'>
when I type it keep wraping in the first line and dosen't go to 2nd line at all.

The same syntax, I tried in a seperate html file it works.
<input type='textarea' name='code' rows='2' cols='30' style='width: 180px;height:30px'>
But, it dosen't work in my jsp? If I use your syntax in my JSP, still not working?

Conditional HTML in a JSP page?

I've been scouring the help and web for about 2 hours and haven't found a way to do this yet.
What I'm trying to do is to conditionally generate attributes to a html tag via JSP, but everything I've tried (even stuff that's valid JSP) won't pass the JDeveloper HTML checks and it won't compile the JSP page.
Specifically, I'm trying to add a bgcolor attribute to a <tr> tag if conditions are met in data in the row, but everything I've tried to get the added data in the tag results in some error.
I've tried something like this in the HTML:
<tr <%= color %> >
and this from the java side:
if (rowCont > 20) {
out.prinln("<tr bgcolor=\"#c0c0c0\">);
else {
out.prinln("<tr>");
Both methods result in lots and lots of HTML errors and JDeveloper won't even compile the page. The hmtl way resutls in "name expected" errors, and the java way results in a bunch of "end tag doesn't match start tag" errors.
Any clues on ways to do this?
Thanks

Can you send me a larger snippet of code from your JSP? I do pretty much the exact same thing in all of our JSP's in our app. If you have a uix:form tag, you'll need to wrap all html inside uix:rawText tags.
String colText = "class=\"OraTableCellText\" style=\"border-left:1px solid #CCCCCC;border-bottom:1px solid #CCCCCC\"";
<td <%=colText%> >Text here </td>
<td <%=colText%> >More Text </td>

if(idpass == false)

it will work or not pl tell me

If you do the redirect with javascript, the user cannot resubmit his login when he presses the refresh button. When he does press refresh, he only refreshes the redirect, not the form post that was before it. When he presses back the redirect will also kick him back in stead of going back to the login page. A simple javascript redirect page would look like this:
<html>
<body onload="document.location.href='myhtmlpage.htm';">
</body>
</html>But that is only if you care about resubmits of course.

How to upload an html file using jsp and jdbc

Hi,
im trying to upload an html page using JSP and jdbc. but of no success.
my aim is to keep some important html pages in the database.the file size can vary.the file has to be selected from a local machine (through the browser) and uploaded to a remote machine(where the databse resides).
any help/sample code or pointer to any helpful link is appreciated.
thanks in advance
javajar2003

When uploading a file, I use a byte array as a temporary buffer..
So, you should then be able to store the byte array in the
database as binary data.
example>
//Temporary Buffer To Store File
byte[] tmpbuffer = new byte[860];
//Some Code To Upload File...
//File Should Now Be In Byte Array
//Get DB Connection and execute Prepared Statement
Connection con=//GET DB CONNECTION;
String sql=insert into TABLE(page) values(?);
PreparedStatement ps=con.prepareStatement(sql);
ps.setBytes(1,tempbuffer);
ps.executeUpdate();
//Close PS and Free DB Connection
..... and this method looks like you dont even have
to store the file in a byte array, you can just give
it the input stream.
ps.setBinaryStream(int, inputStream, int);
You may have to make several attempts at this. I have
uploaded a file and temporarily stored it in a byte array,
but have never from there stored it in the DB as binary
data.. but this looks like it'll work.
Good Luck!

Help regarding ABAP and ABAP Objects

Dear all,
I am very new in abap and abap objects. But i have some expr. in other language..specialy development. Right now i am working for srm module...So i want to move my self into abap object and specialy in workflow...Please provide me help regarding this...along with the starting point for this.

hi
Object Oriented prg
A programming technique in which solutions reflect real world objects
What are objects ?
An object is an instantiation of a class. E.g. If Animal is a class, A cat
can be an object of that class .
With respect to code, Object refers to a set of services ( methods /
attributes ) and can contain data
What are classes ?
A class defines the properties of an object. A class can be instantiated
as many number of times
Advantages of Object Orientated approach
Easier to understand when the system is complex
Easy to make changes
Encapsulation - Can restrict the visibility of the data ( Restrict the access to the data )
Polymorphism - Identically named methods behave differently in different classes
Inheritance - You can use an existing class to define a new class
Polymorphism and inheritance lead to code reuse
Have a look at these good links for OO ABAP-

Here is a good link that indicate that JavaBean is not only for applets
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/javabeans/whatis/beanDefinition.html
quote:
The JavaBeans API makes it possible to write component software in the Java programming language. Components are self-contained, reusable software units that can be visually composed into composite components, applets, applications, and servlets using visual application builder tools. JavaBean components are known as Beans.

Default text for html:textarea..

Hi All.
How to populate a textarea in struts(<html:textarea>) with some default text.
Waiting for your suggestion in this regard.

Why are you duplicating the answer after 2 days? The answer is already given. Just leave the thread as it is as long there are no unanswered questions from the topicstarter.

JEditorPane + html TEXTAREA + WRAP

Hi, I have a simple program that uses a JEditorPane to create an html TEXTAREA.
Supposedly the text in the TEXTAREA should be wrapped, and when I add READONLY, the text can�t be deleted. However, the wrapping and readonly don�t work�
Here is the code:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Main extends JFrame {
    public Main() {
        String abc = "A BIG LONG STRING WHICH SHOULD BE WRAPPED, AND CANNOT BE DELETE...A BIG LONG STRING WHICH SHOULD BE WRAPPED, AND CANNOT BE DELETE...A BIG LONG STRING WHICH SHOULD BE WRAPPED, AND CANNOT BE DELETE...A BIG LONG STRING WHICH SHOULD BE WRAPPED, AND CANNOT BE DELETE...";
        Container ct = getContentPane();
        JEditorPane ep = new JEditorPane();
        ep.setContentType("text/html");
        ep.setText("<body><tr><td class=one width=135>Test Criteria:</b></td><TEXTAREA WRAP=SOFT COLS=20 ROWS=2 READONLY>"
                   + abc + "</TEXTAREA></tr></body>");
        ct.add("Center", ep);
        setSize(400, 300);
        setVisible(true);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new Main();
}Please help me out.
Thanks.

As I understand it, JEditorPane's version of HTML is 3.2. Looking in the HTML 3.2 recommendation I don't see "wrap" and "readonly" as acceptable attributes for Textarea.

Dynamically scrollable html:textarea

Hi,
Can someone please tell me how to make a html:text area scrollable and dynamic(rows are populated from DB). I am using struts and am populating in the jsp page using logic:iterate tags.

An HTML textarea becomes scrollable as soon as it's content spans rows greater than the display. This is automatically done by the browser. You need to specify how may rows the textarea should display ( this decides how large it will be, vertically ) and that's it.

Can't create dynamic html elements with jsp????? important

Hi All,
I am having problem creating dynamic html elements with jsp tags, i have tried to use EL and java scriplet, both of them don't work.
i am trying to create dynamic menu in my "rightMenu.jspf", based on, if user has logged in or not.
some like this!
<jsp:if test ="${validUser == null}">
some simple text menu here
</jsp:if>
but it is not working. it simply loading all and images with in statement, regardless of whether user has logged in or not. i think some how if statement is not working properly.
"validUser" is a session bean, which is not creating at this point, it will created when user will log in successfully. and also this session bean does not exist at the page, where i am trying to check that .
Is there any way to create dynamic values in jsp. It is really important, is there any body who help me in this matter. i would be really grateful.

hi jaspre,
thanks for replying me. you know what, is it not something wrong with web.xml file. i remember once, i deleted some from there, a property with "*.jsp". i can't remember what exactly was it though.
all if statements works on files ending with extension ".jsp" but don't work only on with extension ".jspf". there must be to do with this.
