Hello Larry,
You can use a select list with submit and create a branch to the page you want to go to.
Hope that helps.

How to trace the value passed by select list

Hi,
Is it possible to know what value is passed by the select list.
eg:
:p1_testid -- is the select list name .
if select list contains 3 values ... value1, value2, and value3. and I select value2 from the select list.
I want to confirm it that the value I selected is the same value passed to the query.
- select * from Test where Testid=:p1_testid;
How to trace the value of :p1_testid before query execution.
Thanks.

check your session state to see what value the select list has..
From developer tools at bottom of running page, select session, then look for the value associated with your select list..
Thank you,

Select List with Redirect clears Foreign Key

I have two pages created by the Form wizard, a report and a form, with a Create button on the report page. When the Create button is pressed it passes a Foreign Key item using f?p syntax - stardard code, so far, so good, the form page works fine.
However, the form contains three Select List items, and the second and third ones need to be restricted by the value of the first one. That is, once they choose an Organization using the first Select List the second Select List should only show Groups that belong to that Organization. To do this, I have chosen the first Select List to be "Select List with Redirect". This does exactly what I want, restricting the values in the second and third items because the LOVs they are based on refer to the value of the first item in their where clauses.
This works fine when I edit an existing record, and also works if I create a new record but don't touch the value of the first Select List. The problem is that when there is no database record and the first Select List is changed, it wipes out the Foreign Key value that was passed - so the record cannot be saved. The url after redirection shows only a value for the item that was changed, and does not include the value of the Foreign Key item as it did when the Create button was pressed.
I cannot find anywhere to specify item/value pairs for the redirection url. So I have created a Computation which sets the value of the Foreign Key item and computes it Before Header, After Header or Before Region, etc. It sets the value, and Session State displays the value. Debug shows it being set, too. But the displayed field is empty in the region, and the record cannot be saved because the item has no value!
Can anyone tell me what I'm missing here? I suspect the processing of the region is overriding the computation. But I can't find a way around this. Any ideas?

Scott,
Sorry, my mistake - it's not a database column, and Alternate Source Used is set to "Only...". The problem is still occurring.
The tables are:
- Person - list of People
- Organization - list of Organizations
- Organization Role - Roles defined for each Organization, has foreign key to Organization
- Person Role - Assignment of a Person to an Organization Role, has foreign key to Organization Role and also to Person
I generated a report on Person with a link to a form on the table. When they press the edit icon, the form for the person comes up fine. Then I enable a series of tabs for that person - to edit addresses, phone numbers, etc. and carry the Person ID forward to each page.
On the Person Roles page, I generated a report that lists the roles that person is assigned to and a form to maintain the assignments. Pressing the edit button goes to the form to maintain the assignment, which works fine.
There is also a Create button to add a new assignment, which goes to the same form and clears the primary key of this table to create a new record. I also pass the Person ID in the url so that the new record can create the foreign key value to Person.
Now here's the problem. On the form to create or edit an assignment, there is a Select List to choose the Organization Role record that they are being assigned to. But this can be a long list, with the same role in several organizations, etc. So I want to allow them to first select the Organization, then select Roles in that Organization.
To do that, I created a new item on the page that is not a database column. It is defined as a Select List on Organization, and they can choose the Organization from the list. Then the select statement for the Organization Role LOV has a where clause that compares Organization ID against the value chosen by the user. To make this work, the page has to be updated when they choose a different Organization, so I made the Organization field a Select List with Redirect.
When I edit existing role assignments this works fine. As soon as I select a new Organization, the Organization Role Select List is updated and I can choose roles defined for that Organization. But when I create a new record (which passes in the Person ID in the url) and then choose an Organization, the Person ID is wiped out - and the record cannot be saved without this foreign key value.
After selecting an organization on a new record, the url shows that the page has been called with only the new value of Organization - so the Person ID is lost, because there is no database record to fetch and it is not passed to the page. And I cannot find a way to set the item/value pairs passed to the url when the redirect is performed.
I am displaying the Person ID for debugging purposes, and see it disappear if I set Display As to "Text", "Display as Text", "Display as Text (based on LOV, does not save state)" or "Display as Text (based on LOV, saves state)". Interestingly, even though the later saves state (I can see it in Session State), it still gets wiped out in the record - presumably because it's a database column and there is no record, and the value is "Always" going to update the session state.
Another interesting behavior: If I set the Person ID to display as a Select List, it remains. I think this is because I do not allow extra values or nulls, so it displays the first value in the list if there is no value. (I have only created one person so far in my testing, so I can't tell yet for sure if it changes. Will try that.)
Is this clear? I'm trying to get this application created in my workspace on htmldb.oracle.com (currently it's on my local database) but having problems creating the tables - unable to create initial extents. Hopefully, I'll have it up there soon and you can examine what I'm doing. I'll let you know when it's available.
Thanks for your help.

Select list with redirect - clearing field issue

I'created an APEX page where there is 2 items. A Select list with redirect and a Text Field. Both have "Only when current value in session state is null" for "Source used". If some data has been written into the Text Field and I'm selecting someting from the Select List with redirect, the value of the Text Field is cleared.
The page has no Computations, Validations, Processes or Branches.
As you may guess, I want the the Text Field NOT be cleared.
I know, that subject has been discussed over and over, but I'm all reading about it told me that "Source used" set to "Only when..." for the Text Field, it's suppose tol keep it's value.
Could please someone explain me what I've not understood.
Many thanks in advance.

Thanks for helping me. In fact, my real problem is about a page where two select lists are needed. The first one shows CATEGORIES and the second one shows SUB-CATEGORIES, based on the value selected at the first select list. Since there is other fields on the page and the data has not been saved yet (other fields afterwards and validations anyway), data entered has to be kept until the user click "Save" button and all the validations are ok. I was expecting to solve the issue by using "Select list with redirect" for CATEGORIES (this is the only way I was able to make SUB-CATEGORIES works) and having all my fields "Source used" set to "Only when...".
So, can someone told me if "Select list with redirect" is the way to solve my problem or should I use something else?

Select list with redirect and save the item to insert row

On the Form, I want to select from the item (P105_ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID)
and pop the result on the item (P105_ADMIN_NAME).
P105_ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID define:
Display as "select list with redirect"
Alternate source used "Only when .."
Source Type "Database Column"
Source Value or express "ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID"
P105_ADMIN_NAME define:
Display as "Text Field"
Altrenate source used "Only when .."
Source Type "SQL Query"
Source Value or express "select party
from responsible_party
where logonid
= :P105_ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID"
questions:
1. item P105_ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID DROP DOWN LIST is limited to
some threadhold, it did not list all the value from
the LOV which is follow:
select LOGONID d, LOGONID r
from RESPONSIBLE_PARTY
order by 1
2. I want to insert a row after complete the form.
But my item P105_ADMIN_NAME is defined
Source Type "SQL Query" instead of the 'Database
Column'
How could I overcome these?
Thanks so much for your help.

1) what i meant was for you to test this ridiculously huge LOV outside of htmldb, but it occurred to me last night that you could, in fact, be hitting a limit of ours. after some poking around, i have confirmed that. select list items in htmldb are currently limited to 10,000 rows. this was initially done for performance reasons, but they're now opening up the restriction. if you really need to work with that many rows where the user is allowed to pick from a set of values, consider using a popup item type instead. it'd help your app performance as well (in my test cases, it stank to have to wait for my 10k select list rows to come down to my browser).
2) sorry to not have been more clear about this, but when you set your item's "Source Type" back to "Database Column", you'd have to specify that column in the "Source or value expression" field. also, you can't put a sql query into that "Post Calculation Computation" field. as i said before, "you can take a look at the attribute-level help for that field to see implementation examples."
3) stick with "Always..." for now if you're using our auto-dml process(es)

How to Fix Select list with redirect Problem

Hi
I have a field F1 of type select list with redirect.
It has an LOV with 2 values USA and Canada for eg..
I choose USA and hit save and saved it to DB..
now f1 is stored in table with my User ID and value is USA.
when I log in next into this page,
this field should show me the value USA.
But its not happeneing for me..it always gives the null value when i re login
is there a way to default/source it to my value??
I am using
select f1 from table
where user_id=:user_id;
i checked and this query works in sql plus...

Earl, please see the response in italics for each of your questions below:
You do want your default value to be one of the values in the select list. Otherwise why would you want the value there at all?
So, then should I have a default value at all? And, if yes, then what should it be?
And can't you just set the default value to the first value in your select list, whatever that is, so the first value is the selected value?
I did that and it works, only if the first value in the select list is always going to be there. The select list is based on a column data in a table. And if the data for that column changes then the values in the select list will change. And, the first value might not always be the same.
I guess I'm not clear why this isn't doing what you want, besides the fact that
you seemed to have removed the default value from the dynamic select list query, which you shouldn't do.
I removed the first value (it could have been any values) from the select list to mimic the "dynamic" select list -- just to test. The select list data is based on a table and the data in the table can change.
Thanks

Select List with Redirect clears unrelated fields

The Select List with Redirect seems to clobber any fields that were passed in from the calling form.
In particular, I have a form where I'm trying to populate an intersection table. The first FK column is passed, and shows up when the form first appears, but as soon the select list is selected from, it disappears. The select list with redirect is needed to provide a filter for the select list to populate the second FK column.
How do I preserve the value passed to this form so it's still there when the create button is pressed?
Thanks

Try to give condition to your process...
In select list ... give some name to request....
and then in your process enter :REQUEST <> 'SELECT' in this case when select list is submitted then that process will not be fired

Select list with Redirect

Version HTMLDB 2.0.0.00.49
Can you help?
New to HTML DB and struggling with Select Lists.
I have 3 select lists based on LOVs (SQL Queries).
On selecting a value from Select List 1, this filters Select List 2 (Using Select List with Redirect) and on Selecting a value from Select List 2, this in turn filters Select List 3 (Again using Select List with Redirect).
The problem that I have is that after the Select List with Redirect has executed, the page is rendered and the value that I selected is overwritten by the first value in the select list as determined by the SQL order clause in my LOV definition.
Is there a way to 'freeze' the value that I have chosen regardless if the page is rendered because of the Select List with Redirect?
I have checked the Session State and the correct values are being assigned to the appropriate ITEM variables, however what the USER sees makes it very confusing.
Perhaps there is a better way of achieving the desired functionality?
Perhaps I am using Select List with Redirect inappropriately?
Any guidance gratefully received.

id,
Set each item's Source Used attribute to 'Only...' to cause cached values to be used in preference over newly computed values for each page view. Just be sure to clear cache for the page when first linking to it or when branching to it from other pages.

How to access the value of a field of a field symbol.

Hello All,
i need to access the value of a field in a field symbol. But when i am trying to get the value like <FS>-POSNR, it's showing that that the <FS> has no structure.
In my program, the field itself that i need to check should be dynamic. ie i'll get the field in a variable and i need to find the value of that field.
Am pasting my code below, please tell me what needs to be done.
here in my sample code i am moving the entry of the <FS> into a work area structure. But in my actual program, i gets the structure as a parameter. So is there any way i can declare a work area dynamically...

Hi,
if it is the current row, use this.getCurrentRow().getAttr() where the attribute can be identified by the index or a String (its name). If you need to access aspecific non-current row, use getRowAtRangeIndex(int index)

Accessing display values of a select list (or LOV)

Hi all,
I was asking myself if it is possible to access the display values of a select list (to be added to a report header and to the Head section of a pdf export),
and to call them in form of the &xxxxx. notation
e.g. if &P10_REGION. return the selected value (e.g. 1), I would like to have the corresponding display value (e.g. USA) .
Kind regards,
Boris

Thank you Graham,
unfortunately I'm a newbie regarding Javascript. Reading the APEX help, I could understand something but not everything.
I would enter into the page html body the following script
<script type="text/javascript">
document.getElementById('P10_hiddenItem').value = document.getElementById('P10_referenceItem').text;
</script>
Is this the correct approach?
how should I then submit the page?
Thank you,
Boris

How to default a value in a select list

Hi
I have an item on the page which is displayed as a select list.
The select list has an lov that returns 3 values as follows:
ACAD1M
ACAD2H
ACAD3T
the sql for this lov is as follows:
select CAL_TYPE d,cal_type r
from igs_ca_type
where s_cal_cat='ACADEMIC'
It needs to return the values in the order as shown above, however if the user does not select anything from the select list, I want it to default to the value in the middle of the list(ACAD2H)
I tried using default on the item but I could not get this to work.
Could someone explain how I can get the select list in HTMLDB to default to the value that I want regardless of which position it appears in the select list it always seems to default to the value at the top of the list.

Hello Kay,
A default value for a select list must be set to a legitimate returned value from the select list LOV query.
The default value should be set in the item "Default" section. In the "Default Value" field you should enter your query – in a form of a PL/SQL Function Body – and set the "Default Value Type" field accordingly.
The following is an example of code I'm using to set the default value of a select list to be the first displayed option (set by the user, and recorded in the dispord column):
declare
l_sno number;
begin
select sno
into l_sno
from mis_mess_users
where dispord = (select min(dispord)
from mis_mess_users);
return l_sno;
end;Using the same principle, you can use any query that will give you the result you need.
Regards,
Arie.
