Help with building a select box from a query?

New thread from a topic I started yesterday. From the responses, and a search of other threads, I realized that I was way off base:-) So, I went back and verified that my TomCat setup was alright. After a few tweeks I verified that I could display the index page and successfully run all of the example servlets and jsps. I then built a simple login.jsp and an associated bean to verify a user id and password on an ldap db. That works good. Next, I built a bean which runs a query against the same ldap db and returns a list of last names. What I want to do is use the last names in the bean to populate my select box. At first I was trying to build the html with the list from my bean, i quickly realized you guys didn't like that approach. So, can someone explain, in some detail (because I'm really dense), just how I can return the values from my bean and build a select box with those values.
regards,
Mat

Just in general, I prefer knowing how to do things the "old-fashioned way" first before using other tools, because if it comes time for you to take over someone else's code, you'll probably find that they did it the old way and you'll want to understand that. Further, the new ways are based on the old ways for many things.
Struts is a good system, but unless you have some understanding of the basics, it's probably going to be harder to understand it. If you have the time, I'd say at least go thru one book on JSP/servlets (which should be all about the basics, maybe a slightly older book) and go thru the examples in it.

Help with code for Selection Box

Hi All,
I have written the below code in the Data Section of the infoset
BEGIN OF IT_TYP-SALE OCCURS 0,
LTEXT TYPE TVKOT-VTEXT,
END OF IT_TYP-SALE.
DATA: IT_RETURN LIKE DDSHRETVAL OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
The code works fine, but when the user presses F4 in the box which opens the header displayed is 'Name' which is the header for TVKOT-VTEXT. I would like to know how i can define a custom header Eg: 'Company Name'.
Hope my problem is clear, await assitance.
Vivek

Hi,
Thanks for the inputs, what i really need is how i can define a custom text. As the header i want to display is not a standard field header. So in that case how should i declare?
Note: The Company Name was only a example.
Any suggestion on how i can have a custom name appearing as the header instead of the table field header?

Help with writing and retrieving data from a table field with type "LCHR"

Hi Experts,
I need help with writing and reading data from a database table field which has a type of "LCHR". I have given an example of the original code but don't know what to change it to in order to fix it and still read in the original data that's stored in the LCHR field.
Basically we have two Function modules, one that saves list data to a database table and one that reads in this data. Both Function modules have an identicle table which has an array of fields from type INT4, CHAR, and type P. The INT4 field is the first one.
Incidentally this worked in the 4.7 non-unicode system but is now dumping in the new ECC6 Unicode system.
Thanks in advance,

ENDLOOP.

Hi Anuj,
The unicode flag is active.
When I run our report and then to try and save the list data a dump is happening at the following point
LOOP AT T_TAB into L_WA.
As I say, T_TAB consists of different fields and field types whereas L_WA is CHAR 800. The dump mentions UC_OBJECTS_NOT_CONVERTIBLE
When I try to load a saved list the dump is happening at the following point
APPEND T_DATA-RAWDATA to T_TAB.
T_DATA-RAWDATA is type LCHR and T_TAB consists of different fields and field types.
In both examples the dumps mention UC_OBJECTS_NOT_CONVERTIBLE

Help with build

Hi all,
I need a little help with building a new comp and any help will be appericiated.
My wife is a video editor and she needs a new CPU.
She is editing HD films from various cameras (she have several clients).
The budget is around 1500-2000$ for the CPU without screens and software which she already owns.
She is working with CS5.5 and using windows 7 pro 64bit.
I read quite a lot in the past few days and I ended up more confused then I was, this is the setup which I thought of:
CPU:       I was thinking about the i7 960 3.2 (310$) or the i7 2600k (330$).
MB:         Asus p6x8D 1366 ddr 1600
Graphics: Gigabyte nVidia GTX460 1gb gddr5 (210$) or gtx560(230$) the 570 is way off the budget (440$)
BLURAY: Pioneer BDR-206
RAM:      I don't know really.. I was thinking about 12gb but I am cluless about it.
Power:     AX 850W Gold Active PFC 12cm Fan Modular (No particular reason, when I'll know my final setup I'll check the power I need with http://www.extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp).
Case:      Antec / Thermaltake, No idea which model..
OS HDD: I'm still puzzled weather to go for the small (60gb) ssd for the OS and programs or go for a 7200 rpm hd.
HDD:       W.D Caviar black 1tb 7200 rpm, 64mb, Sata III * 4 with raid on board (Raid 0 or Raid 5? - I'll save it for another thread).
Coolers:   Help needed
Any help will be more then welcomed.

I need help with controlling two .swf's from third.

Hi, thanks for reading!
I need help with controlling two .swf's from third.
I have a problem where I need to use a corporate designed
.swf in a digital signage solution, but have been told by the legal
department that it can not be modified in any way, I also can't
have the source file yada yada. I pulled the .swfs from their
website and I decompiled them to see what I was up against.
The main swf that I need to control is HCIC.swf and the
problem is it starts w/ a preloader, which after loading stops on a
frame that requires user input (button press) on a play button,
before the movie will proceed and play through.
What I have done so far is to create a container swf,
HCIC_container.swf that will act as Target for the HCIC.swf, and
allow me to send actionscript to the file I'm not allowed to
modify.
I managed to get that done with the help of someone on
another forum. It was my hope that the following script would just
start HCIC.swf at a frame past the preloader and play button, and
just play through.
var container:MovieClip = createEmptyMovieClip("container",
getNextHighestDepth());
var mcLoader:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
mcLoader.addListener(this);
mcLoader.loadClip("MCIC.swf", container);
function onLoadInit(mc:MovieClip) {
mc.gotoAndPlay(14);
But unfortunately it didn't solve my problem. Because there
is a media-controller.swf, that is being loaded by HCIC.swf that
has the controls including the play button to start HCIC.swf.
Here's a link to a .zip file with all 3 .swf files, and all 3
.fla files.
http://www.axiscc.com/temp/HCIC.zip
What I need to do is automatically start the HCIC.swf file
bypassing the pre-loader and play button without editing it or the
media-controller.swf in anyway. So all the scripting needs to be
done in HCIC_container.swf.
I know this is confusing, and its difficult to explain, but
if you look at the files it should make sense.
ActionScripting is far from my strong point, so I'm
definitely over my head here.
Thanks for your help.

Got my solution on another forum.

Help with building dynamic website using tutorial (was: I know this is a repost but I'm still stuck!)

Perhaps this was missed by the group but here goes:
I am slogging thru a dynamic PHP tutorial but I cant continue without losing some understanding of the process due to ?
I am trying to complete the following:
Building your first dynamic website – Part 2: Developing the back end
However,
my Insert record form dialog (below) looks like this, and I need to change both 'title' and 'blog_entry' values (as shown above), but I cannot make that choice in my form.
I am using DW CC with the Deprecated Server Behavior from DMX zone.
I have made sure my results match the tutorial, but I cant get past the above inconsistency in functionality.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks folks!

The Columns area indicates which form field is used to insert a value in each column. Although the post_id and updated columns are listed as getting no value, their values are generated automatically by the database.
Check that the title and blog_entry columns are being assigned the correct values. If either is marked as getting no value, it means that you have spelled the names of the form fields differently from the column names. Correct this by selecting the column name in the Columns area and selecting the form field's name from the Value pop-up menu.

hey all -
i am new at most of this, so please bare with me.
I am trying to go from one box to the next (twice over), and am having difficulty getting to the third box.
I have the original box "select1" and it populates "select two" just fine, but i do not have the third population....looking for help in getting a third box.
I would like box one to populate box two, from the selection in box two, i would like to populate box three, and have that as a selection as well.
here is what i have so far...

function dropDownChanged(dd)
     if(eval('typeof(' + dd.name.replace(/:/g, "_") + '_children) == \'undefined\'')) return;

all of this information is sent via web form to a crm...
can you help me to create this third dropdown list with the ability to select an option from there?
I would greatly appreciate any and all help you can provide!

Populate the JSP's select box from database on jsp load

3 cfgrids on one page. Columns from grid 1,2 and 3 are swapping the first select box from each grid.

ColdFusion 11, hot fix 3 installed but did not help. There are no binds.
This one has been driving me crazy and I have finally figured out that it is the first column in each grid where there is a select box via "valuesdisplay" that is the issue. Select box results are switching grids!
Example of how it is coded to display:
Grid 1 - gridcolumn should have a dropdown with 1,2,3
Grid 2 - gridcolumn should have a dropdown with a,b,c
Grid 3 - gridcolumn should have a dropdown with x,y,z
However, the results in the dropdowns in the grids are:
Grid 1 - x,y,z (should be 1,2,3)
Grid 2 - 1,2,3 (should be a,b,c)
Grid 3 - a,b,c (should be x,y,z)
This only happens with the first dropdown for each grid. Any other columns with dropdowns do not have any issues and do not swap out to the wrong grid.
Sample of my code from the grids:
Grid 1:
<cfgrid name = "evalgrid"
height="200"
autowidth="no"
font="arial" fontsize="12"
query = "getevalfinal"
SORT="Yes"
selectmode="edit"
format="html"
insert="yes"
delete = "#deletevalue#">
<CFGRIDCOLUMN NAME="numberofschools" HEADER="numberofschools"
HEADERALIGN="LEFT" DATAALIGN="LEFT"
BOLD="Yes" ITALIC="No"
SELECT="Yes" DISPLAY="Yes"
HEADERBOLD="Yes" HEADERITALIC="No"
VALUES = " ,NA,1,2,D"
VALUESdisplay = "Blank,NA,1,2,D" valuesDelimiter=","
width=50>
</cfgrid>
Second Grid:'
<cfgrid name = "SecondGrid"
height="100" width="700"
font="arial" fontsize="12"
query = "getsecurity"
SORT="Yes"
selectmode="edit"
format="html"
insert="yes"
delete = "#deletevalue#"
autowidth="yes"
>
<CFGRIDCOLUMN NAME="userrole" HEADER="userrole"
HEADERALIGN="LEFT" DATAALIGN="LEFT"
BOLD="Yes" ITALIC="No"
SELECT="Yes" DISPLAY="Yes"
HEADERBOLD="YES" HEADERITALIC="No"
VALUES = "#olduserrole#"
VALUESdisplay = "#olduserrole#" valuesDelimiter=","
WIDTH=300
font="arial" fontsize="12">
</cfgrid>
In the above code, userrole values end up being in the wrong grid where numberofschools values should be and vice versa.
Appreciate any help!

Problems with suggestions for selection boxes

I first found this problem when typing in Google Maps selection box. If I type an A in the box, I am given several suggestions from my web history starting with A, but I can't find any way (single or double-click or drag) to make any of the suggestions go into the box. I tried Restart with Add-Ons Disabled but that doesn't help.

Building a select box multiple times on one page.

Hello,
I have a ResultSet rsAgencies that contains all of the information needed to create the options for the agencies select box. It works something like this:
<select name="selAgencyId" id="selAgencyId" class="Standard">
     <option value="-1" selected>Select One</option>
     <% while (rsAgencies.next()){ %>
          <option value="<%= rsAgencies.getInt("id") %>"><%= rsAgencies.getString("name") %></option>
     <%}%>
</select>Pretty straight forward. But I need to print these same options out in several different select boxes on the same page and can't figure out how to encapulate this functionality in order to do it.
In ASP, I would have simply had a function declared on this page that I would pass the ResultSet to. It would loop through the rs and build the options.
But JSP won't let me declare a function (or maybe I just don't have the syntax right).
I have also tried putting it in a bean and calling that function from the JSP, but it kindof skips over it for some reason.
If anyone has done this and can give me a nudge toward the best practice, I would be forever grateful.
Thanks
James.

Limey,
Thanks. I did not know that about the declaration tags.
Yes, I decided to build a function that accepts a resultset and returns a vector. It allows me to minimize trips to the database as well as loop through multiple times.
I ended up putting that function in a bean that will hold all of my common functions for the application. I assume that is a pretty fairly standard way of sharing functionality from page to page.
Thanks again.
James.

Help with passing parameters to Aspell from C [SOLVED ENOUGH]

I found this really cool utility called aspellstdout that will allow for rudimentary spell check in Scite:
http://www.distasis.com/cpp/scitetip.htm#spell
What I can't figure out (and the author didn't either) is how to pass parameters beyond language to Aspell. What I want to be able to do is pass mode switches. For instance, if I have a LaTeX document I want to be able to pass the -t switch (--mode=tex). I looked through aspell.h and couldn't see what I'm looking for.
--EDIT--
The output to xterm option is far easier and it makes quite a bit more sense now that I'm use to it. From my .SciTEUser.properties:
# Rudimentary LaTeX Spell Checker
command.name.2.$(file.patterns.tex)=Spell Check
command.2.$(file.patterns.tex)=xterm -e aspell -t -c $(FileNameExt)
command.subsystem.2.$(file.patterns.tex)=0

Help with timeout for select inside loop

Hi everyone, im a little confused with this code. Can you help me to optimize it? Its giving Timeout dump.
Thanks so much, I´m new in abap and I tried hard, but its getting worse.
Any idea is welcomed.
LOOP AT it_lips.
    SELECT SINGLE *
      FROM vbak
     WHERE vbeln = it_lips-vgbel.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0 OR vbak-vbtyp <> 'C'.
      CONTINUE.
    ENDIF.
    SELECT SINGLE *
      FROM vbup
     WHERE vbeln = it_lips-vgbel
       AND posnr = it_lips-vgpos.
    IF sy-subrc = 0 AND vbup-lfgsa = 'C'.
      READ TABLE it_likp WITH KEY vbeln = it_lips-vbeln.
      IF it_likp-wadat < it_likp-wadat_ist.
        it_data-statu = 'N'.
        v_countn = v_countn + 1.
      ELSE.
        it_data-statu = 'S'.
        v_counts = v_counts + 1.
      ENDIF.
    ELSE.
      CONTINUE.
    ENDIF.
    it_data-vbeln = it_lips-vgbel.
    it_data-posnr = it_lips-vgpos.
    SELECT SINGLE matnr arktx kwmeng vrkme
      INTO (it_data-matnr, it_data-arktx, it_data-mengs, it_data-vrkme)
      FROM vbap
     WHERE vbeln = it_lips-vgbel
       AND posnr = it_lips-vgpos.
    it_data-menge = it_data-mengs.
    it_data-kunnr = vbak-kunnr.
    SELECT SINGLE name1
      INTO it_data-name1
      FROM kna1
     WHERE kunnr = it_data-kunnr.
    it_data-edatu = it_likp-wadat.
    it_data-wadat = it_likp-wadat_ist.
    it_data-vkorg = it_likp-vkorg.
    APPEND it_data.
    CLEAR: it_data, vbak, it_vbep, vbap, kna1, it_lips, it_likp.
ENDLOOP.

The issue of SELECTing within a LOOP is much overblown. All of the SELECTs are SELECT SINGLE using the fully qualified primary key. Using a JOIN or FOR ALL ENTRIES might speed this up a bit, but dollars to doughnuts, the problem is here:
READ TABLE it_likp WITH KEY vbeln = it_lips-vbeln.
If it_likp is a standard table, you will be reading half of all of the entries, on average, every time you do the read. If you don't want to change it to a sorted or hashed table, SORT it_likp by vbeln before going into the loop and use the addition BINARY SEARCH on the READ statement.

Help with using a web page from disk after saved from web

Hi, I almost forgot the little I learned about web page development, so, I'm a total noob when it comes to this and I need your help.
I saved as a complete web page on my hard disk this web page but when I open it in Firefox or IE, it doesn't display as much as I need it. I'm mostly interested in displaying the logo images as they appear on the original web page. The browsers just show them briefly when refreshing but hide them right away. I can see the image files downloaded to my hard drive and if I open the page in Dreamweaver it displays these images in the preview pane but I can't make them show in the browsers. From Dreamweaver I saved the page as in the folder where the images are and this also updated the code with the relative image links but the browsers still don't show them.
I will greatly appreciate your help with this.

I'm sorry, but your post is very confusing
I saved as a complete web page on my hard disk this web page
Does this include site definitions?
when I open it in Firefox or IE, it doesn't display as much as I need it.
I dont know what this means...are there images that are not being displayed? Is there styling that is not being rendered?
