Help with session in custom tag

Hello,
I want to create a tag that returns true if the session is valid.
<s:Expired>
do something
</s:Expired>
How do you get the session in a *.java file that is not a servlet?
I'm new to tags, ans am using JSTL 1.1 and Tomcat 5.0.19
Thanks
Frank

In a custom tag you have a pagecontext object as a member of your class
with it you can do something like
HttpServletRequest request = (HttpServletRequest) pageContext.getAttribute(PageContext.REQUEST);
then it's the usual
request.getSession()

  • I need help with the conditional build tag option RoboHelp 10

    I need help with the conditional build tag option. I want to apply CBT to content in a topic. I looked at the Help topics and believed that I applied the feature correctly. Howver, it is not working as desired. In the 2nd sentence below I want the text highlighted in blue to only appear for the printed output and the text printed in purple to only appear for the .htm /online output. Please help.
    There are common tasks used to manage the folders in the Navigator and the folders
    in the BBS Folders Viewer Grid. For more information on these common tasks see Help

    Hi there
    Using tagging is a two part process.
    Part One
    You create and apply the tags to the information you wish to control.
    Part Two
    You create a Build Expression that is used when you generate your output. The Build Expression typically reads something like: NOT Tag1 (or whatever your tag name is)
    Then when you generate and use the Build Expression, the information tagged is not included in the build.
    Cheers... Rick

  • Need help with Template - unbalanced #EndEditable tag

  • Help with Java Printing-Custom paper sizes

    Hi,
    I'm trying to print documents with custom paper sizes out of java.
    I can print fine when I don't try to set the MediaSize to a custom size or when I use already named constants like: "MediaSizeName.JIS_B4"
    The error message I get is this:
    java.lang.ClassCastException
         at javax.print.attribute.AttributeSetUtilities.verifyAttributeValue(Unknown Source)
         at javax.print.attribute.HashAttributeSet.add(Unknown Source)
         at hello.Printy.printDocument(Printy.java:103)
         at hello.Printy.main(Printy.java:135)
    The offending line(103) looks like this:
    pras.add(new MediaSize(1,10,MediaSize.INCH ));The function that its from looks like this:
    public  void printDocument()
    try
              System.out.println("input file name is");
         System.out.println(inputFileName);
    PrintRequestAttributeSet pras = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
    DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE;
    PrintService printService[] = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(flavor, pras);
    PrintService defaultService = PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService();
    PrintService printPrintService = null;
    // didn't work pras.add(new MediaSize(1,10,MediaSize.INCH) );
    PrintService service = ServiceUI.printDialog(null, 200, 200,printService, defaultService, flavor, pras);
    if (service != null)
         System.out.println("There is a service aunty-may!!");
    DocPrintJob job = service.createPrintJob();
    FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(getInputFileName());
    DocAttributeSet das = new HashDocAttributeSet();
    //pras.add(new MediaSize((float)3.25, (float)4.75, Size2DSyntax.INCH ) );
    // - works
    //pras.add(MediaSizeName.JIS_B4);
    pras.add(new MediaSize(1,10,MediaSize.INCH ));
    //pras.add(new MediaSize(1,10,MediaSize.INCH) );
         System.out.println("Doc has been set to custom size");
    Doc doc = new SimpleDoc(fis, flavor, null);
    job.print(doc, pras);
         System.out.println("any doc for you?");
    catch (Exception e)
    e.printStackTrace();
    }Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I'm new to java but I've programmed a bunch in c++.

    Hmm ... no real help, but I found this note in the API:
    MediaSize is not yet used to specify media. Its current role is as a mapping for named
    media (see MediaSizeName). Clients can use the mapping method
    MediaSize.getMediaSizeForName(MediaSizeName) to find the physical dimensions of
    the MediaSizeName instances enumerated in this API. This is useful for clients which
    need this information to format & paginate printing.

  • Need help with session sharing in WebCenter Portal

    Hi, How can I share session between a WebCenter Portal application and the portlets it is consuming?
    Basically I want this for authentication. In the portal framework application, I'm setting a user object in the session, How can I get the object in a portlet?
    Regards,
    Navaneet

    IN the second page, you have to make sure that the session
    has been started.
    Put this at the very top of the page -
    <?php if (!isset($_SESSION)) session_start(); ?>

  • Help with JSP and JSTL tag

    I am trying to accomplish the following
    -display a checkbox if the phrase "platinum" appears in a string
    -display a radio button otherwise
    Here is my code:
    <c:when test="${fn:containsEqualIgnoreCase(${product.description}, 'platinum' })}">
                      <td width="40">
                       </td>
                     <td width="1">
                        <html-el:checkbox property="dishHDProduct"             value="${product.productId}:${product.presentationChannelText}:${product.programmingType}" disabled="true"/>                                                            
                                                                  </td>
                                                             </c:when>
                                                             <c:otherwise test="${fn:containsEqualIgnoreCase("platinum")}">

                                                             </c:otherwise>I suspect that I cannot use the <when> <otherwise> stuff with the function JSTL tag, but I may be wrong. I am new to this and open to all suggestions.
    Thanks!

    This is actually the way I ended up solving my own problem:
    <c:choose>

  • Need some help with cfoutput and a tag

    hey there,
    got meself into some issues with <a> and <cfoutput> tags.
    Problem:
    myResult = <a href="http://www.mysite.co.uk" rel="nofollow">mysite</a>
    <cfoutput>#myResult#</cfoutput> outputs "<a href="http://www.mysite.co.uk" rel="nofollow">mysite</a>" (surprise isn't it?)
    now is there any way to output it as html so it would display a link to "mysite"???
    cheers,
    Simon

    thanks!
    I've missed the fact that it was xml data. Just added .xmlText at the end and that sorted my problems. However I'll write down cfsavecontent solution for the future reference.

  • Help with creating a custom component.

    Hi. I have created a really simple custom component called
    myComp. It is a simple Canvas 100 pixels x 100 pixels with an Image
    control component.
    <mx:Canvas>
    <mx:Image id="image1">
    </mx:Canvas>
    After instantiating the component in Main.mxml eg. var
    pic1:myComp = new myComp(); I am having a problem setting the
    source property of the Image component.
    "image1" is the id of mx:Image in the custom compoenent so I
    tried pic1.image1.source = "assets/ball.jpg" but I get a run time
    error "Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null
    object reference".
    Don't really know what I am doing wrong.
    Any help please!

    In your custom component, try adding a bindable public var
    which contains the path to your image. Also, set the image.source
    to this var.
    In your main app, set the var within the <mx:> tags of
    the custom component. Since it is a public var, it will show up in
    the code hint. You can also now change the image var from the main
    app anytime you like using ActionScript code.

  • How Do I get Help with a Major Customer Service Issue?

    Hello,
    I am a Pro Care member and I took my Macbook Pro in to one on the local stores to ask them about a font issue that I was experiencing. One one the Genius guys came over and asked me a few questions and told me that this wasn't a big deal at all, that they just needed to reinstall my default fonts and that it should take maybe 45 minutes. This was at 4:30pm. Six hours later they came back to be to tell me that they had corrected the font issue but all of my user data and applications were lost! It was if I had a brand new Macbook Pro! This was a Friday evening. I was told to take my laptop to a company called Data Savers the next day to have this company try to restore my data/applications.
    I took my laptop to Data Savers on Saturday and they told me that they would need to keep it for a day. I went back to pick it up on Sunday and I was given an external drive that had "raw restored data" on it. When I had been speaking with the store manager about the situation and he wanted me to provide him with a list of software that was on the machine. So, when I got home from picking up my laptop from Data Savers I started it and all I got was an icon of a circle with a slash through it!! I called the guys at Data Savers and told them about this and they asked to bring the laptop back to them on Monday. I did. After running some diagnostics on the machine I was told that my hard drive was "toast!"
    Needless to say I was both upset and distraught! The store manager told me (in emails that I still have) that he understands how upset that I was about coming in for a font related issue and three days later being told that my laptop was no more that a big paper weight. He said (in these emails) that he would replace my laptop and he would try to get me the latest versions of the software that I had to make up for the business that I had lost in the last few days due to the fact that I didn't have have my machine.
    The store manager then called me back on a Tuesday and said that his superiors had told him that he cold not do what he said that he would do. Obviously, this increased my level of frustration. I was able to speak to this manager, think it may have been some sort of regional manager and after indicating that I had emails of the store manager acknowledging the facts of the matter and stating that he was very sorry for what happen, the regional manager said that she wanted me to send her copies of the emails. I told her that the store manager had copies of everything. She told me that she would get back to me. This was Wednesday afternoon. That same evening the store manager called me to say that "because I was lead to believe that Apple would replace my laptop, they would do so. I was told to be be at the store around noon on the following day (Thursday) and to bring my laptop. I was told that they would replace it.
    When I got to the store on Thursday, the manager came up to me and shook my hand and said that he was sorry for all the trouble and inconvenience. He went on to say that before he could replace my laptop that I would have to sign a document saying that I agree that they were not responsible for anything that had happened in the past six days!!
    The fact is, that isn't true and they know it. I have the email to prove it. I didn't sign the document. the next day because I could no longer afford to lose money and clients I went into another Apple store and purchased in brand new system!
    The fact is that I believe that Apples products are far superior to PC products. I was told by some to never buy from Apple again and tell everyone that I know about my experiences with this particular store. All I want is for Apple to do the right thing! Just replace my Macbook Pro like they said they were going to do. They don't have to provide any software updates, just do the right thing and replace my machine!!
    Can anyone tell me if they have had a similar experience and if so, how it was resolved? Who in the corporate office can I talk to about this to get it resolved? Are there and Apple insiders out there that can help me resolve this situation? I would like to avoid having to take legal action if at all possible.
    I look forward to any help that you can provide.

  • How can I get some help with Verizon's customer service?

    I want to preface this by stating that this is the first time in the 10 years in which I've been a Verizon wireless customer, that I've had a problem that cannot be resolved to my satisfaction.  My issue started with a Verizon Wireless Stores in Bethlehem, PA.  I asked one of the sales clerks for some assistance (which I now regret).  My question to her was that I simply wanted to be able to connect my home laptop computer to the internet data on my mobile plan. Without even discussing the different options, I was "told" I needed to purchase a Mobile Hotspot Device (for $69.99, but just $20 after rebate!).  I told the clerk I didn't want to have to pay an additional bill every month and didn't want something that wasn't absolutely necessary.  She neglected to give me the more costly details, like the fact that it would require a 2 year contract on the device, and it would also cost me an additional $20 per month.  She knew I wasn't really sure what the most cost-effective option was, so I trusted her knowledge.  I even had my husband speak to her over the phone about the device, since he's more savvy about technology than I am.  The clerk spoke with him the entire time she completed my transaction, and when she rang the sale up, she did not have me sign anything.  She handed me the receipts, and told me I had 14 days to decide If I wanted to keep the device.  When I got home and tried to use it, it would not connect to my computer.  I took it to a local Verizon store on my lunch break one day and they looked into the transaction.  They told me it was never put on my account; it was charged to someone else's account in error.  I had to go back to the store where I originally purchased it.  I wasn't able to get back to the original store right away, but I made sure to get there by the 14th day.  It took two store managers to look at my account and figure out the error.  They fixed it, but no one apologized to me for the inconvenience; they simply told me they could activate the device for me, or if I didn't want it any more, they would take it back (minus the $35 restocking fee). I took issue with the restock fee, because the store made the error by not giving me the full information at time of purchase, and then not charging it to my account so that I could try it out for 14 days.  I was very upset that the manager refused to remove the restocking fee due to "policy" and that I "signed a contract" and I had to pay it.  I argued that she should make an exception in this case, because I was inconvenienced.  I told her if she valued my future business at her store, she would reconsider.  She refused to budge and told me that I didn't need to shop in her store any more.  I thought that was quite rude and insulting. So, I took all of my original receipts, along with the receipt that indicated that she refunded the $69.99 plus tax (minus the $35 restock fee).  I left the store quite upset, but figured there wasn't much else I could say to her. Meanwhile, it's days later and my bill still shows the entire amount of $74 for the mobile hot spot device still on there.  There is no credit for the return at all.  I called customer service on my lunch break yesterday, and was on the phone for 45 min with a "Kendra R" to no avail.  The entire call, she kept putting me on hold, and my bill was still not straightened out. When I asked to speak with a supervisor or manager, she said there was no one else available.  Later that afternoon, I got an automated call (that left a voice message) from Verizon Customer Service to do a survey on my customer service experience.  I did the survey and explained that my problem was not resolved and I would like a call back.  No one has called me back yet, and I am stuck with no resolution to my problem.  Now the Verizon store has the device back, and I still have the entire amount for it on my bill.  Can you help me please?

    Nope, it was a Verizon Wireless Store.  I went in there in the first place because I trusted the Company for their professionalism, but I've been let down badly.  I posted my story on here because I'm hoping to be able to get the attention of someone from Customer Service.  It seems like the only way you can actually speak with a live person who knows what they are doing, is when you stop paying your bill on time.  After you pay your bill, they transfer you to a poorly trained "rep" that has no authority to handle anything important. I'm actually a pretty patient person, but when it takes someone over 45 min mostly just to keep me on hold, and then tell me they can't help me, I'm not really impressed with their idea of customer service.

  • Help with floating a Div tag?

  • Help with moving between custom screens in a Standard Transaction

    All,
    I'm working with a standard transaction, but in this transaction, the I'm having 2 tabs of customized screens. In each of the screen, I have 1 mandatory fields to be filled. If the user only fill in the mandatory field of the first screen and click save, I need to display an error message and also display the second screen automatically? How can I do this? I tried to use CALL SCREEN 9200 but the system keep displaying the error "Screen SAPLXQQM 9200 must not be in Include screen".
    Can anyone help me on this one? Thanks in advance.

    You must don't calling screen 9200. I mean delete lines code

    from your program.
    This code can be placement in screen fiew logic only!
    Instead, set code of needed tab of tabstrip using FM. Program process this command and automaticly call tab with your 9200-subscreen.

  • Help with placement of div tags

    Hello.  I am sorry to ask what probably is a dumb question, but I'm new, using Dreamweaver CS5, and I need some help.  I'm sure I'll be posting here a few times during this process of building a new site, but I'm hoping it can be a good way for me to learn.  I've watched a lot of tutorial videos, and so here I am.
    I have my site, but I'm having problems being able to place div tags.  I set it up with a wrapper div, a header div, a content div, footer div, etc.  But, inside those divs I want to have other div's where I can place things like a client login box, etc.  So, I tried and tried to place them after one div, or before one, but I just can't get them to work right.  I'm very proficient at Photoshop, but web work is fairly new.  I've done a few sites, but in Golive and just basic bringing them in from Photoshop.  Now I want to learn correctly, so I'm trying all of this.
    I found a way to make a box, using AP Div tag, and then move that where I want it, but, it doesn't work right for me then.  I don't want it fixed in the same spot absolutely, but rather I want it to move with the page.  I'm going to post a link to the site I'm working on, in case that helps.  But, if you look at the site so far, you can see for example I want the text box that says client login to move as you make the page wider or smaller.  It's fixed now.  But, it's the only possible way I know how to put the box and div tag where I want it.  When I just try to insert a div tag (not an AP div) it just goes underneath the div above it.
    What I'm asking is, how do I place div's within div's?  Or, can I use this AP div to put it where I want, and then change it to a regular div, and it stay in the right spot?  I just don't understand how exactly to place divs where I want them, unless I use the AP div box and move it around the screen.  Also, if I have a div box setup, is there a way to drag it somewhere else or reposition it somewhere else on the screen just by dragging?  It's all a bit hard for me to figure out at this point, but I appreciate any help you can give me.
    The AP Div I used is at the top that says client login.  That's the box/table/div tag I'm trying to set up correctly, so it moves with the other elements, like the logo, as you make the page wider or less wide.

  • Newbie help with cache design/custom filter

    Hello,
    I'm very new to Coherence, so you'll have to forgive me if these are easy questions. I have an application that contains 1.5 million products. Each product has a map of prices for our client list. So internally, each product object I'm caching contains a pricelist map with up to 100 entries (clients):
    private String productId ;
    private String productName ;
    private Map<String, Integer> priceList; //where the String is the client id and the Integer is the price for that clientHere's my question(s):
    1. Is there any type of query that would return the product info and just the price for the 1 client (there really is no need to send all 100 of them for the individual quries)? How could this be done efficiently?
    2. I need to sort by price. To do so, I've created a filter on the product keys, and a comparator that contains the client ID. This works fine, but it seems to take a long time to sort based on price using the comparator. Is there any other method of sorting that might be more efficient on the Coherence side of things? Sorting by product name is also a bit slow - is there a way to speed that up? The product name is the same for all clients, and thus is a simple string in the object being cached.
    3. Indexing: Is there any way to index the internal Map of the price list? And would that help in performance?
    Since this is a new implementation, the object design for the cache is open for change as well - if there are other structures that would enhance the performance. Any help would be most appreciated!
    Sincerely,
    Chris

    There are actually techniques you could use to keep all the information about an article in the same object. This may be attractive in particular if the information is rarely updated (frequently updating a large object is costly and, unless every attribute changes with every update, breaking up the object graph making some of the objects into separate cache items is then preferable).
    With the later Coherence releases there are for instance PofExtractor that allow you to extract selected parts of an object without de-serializing the whole object. You could probably use this to only extract the "price list"for a product. Combine this with a custom aggregator (that aggregates over all products a customer want to get a quote on) that could extract just that customers price from the "price list" and you would have a quite efficient solution...
    As for indexes you COULD put the price list and other info from the large object in indexes but be aware that Coherence indexes are always stored on heap (other data can nowadays be stored off-heap) and also occupy a lot of space (Coherence always creates both index and reverse index and since Java objects are used to implement them there is quite a lot of overhead)... I would first look into either a 3NF-like solution with mainly primary indexes or a single cacnhe solution using PofExtractors etc...
