How to... Alias, Sym Links...

Hi,
I have several users with accounts on the TIger Server. Each users have several folders at the root of theirs shares (Documents, Musics, etc.). Some of them has daily backup done to another hard disk. Since a few month I'm trying to see how to add for each users an alias, link to theirs respective backup folder. Unfortunately I did not find any possibilities. Symlinks doesn't work. Once users mount his/her share on the Mac's Desktop using AFP they only see a generic file icon and if I well remember the same happens with alias.
Is there any way to do that ?
I really would like to give them access to theirs backup account without having to create another share point. Something that would work for AFP as well as SMB
If anyone know....
Thanks

Hi,
I know I can do that but it's not what I'm looking for. I do prefer that users can access everything related to themselves from one and only one location.
But as I said I did not find any solution. I will probably have to look for another kind of service/protocol as AFP doesn't allow symlinks to other disks to work this way.
Anyway, I still look for an answer to achieve this.
Thanks

How to add a link to html region to fire a dynamic action?

Hi, guys:
I need to add a hyper link to a html region (I wish it could be a button :( ) , the value of items in this region is loaded by a pl/sql process before loading header. And this link needs to fire a dynamic action to update database. I know how to add a hyper link to this region, but how to set this link so I can fire a dynamic action by clicking this link, could anyone give me a hint?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi, Jorge:
Thanks for your reply. I cannot use updateRec, I have to use my own PL/SQL procedure. I tried to use similar way as people set dynamic action for modal page.
I set column link for ncic_approve_link
SELECT SOR_ALIAS.ALIAS_ID,
SOR_ALIAS.OFFENDER_ID,
SOR_ALIAS.FIRST_NAME|| ' '|| SOR_ALIAS.MIDDLE_NAME|| ' '|| SOR_ALIAS.LAST_NAME || ' ' || SOR_ALIAS.SIR_NAME   AS " Alias Name ",
NVL(SOR_ALIAS.NICKNAME, 'No Nick names ') AS "Nick Name",
(case when SOR_ALIAS.ncic_verify_date is null then 'NCIC' else null end) ncic_approve_link
FROM SOR_ALIAS
WHERE SOR_ALIAS.OFFENDER_ID    = :p216_detail
AND SOR_ALIAS.ADMIN_VALIDATED IS NOT NULL
AND upper(SOR_ALIAS.STATUS)    = upper('active')the link attributes is
onclick="return false;" class="alias_ncic" title="NCIC Approve"then I pass two values to two hidden variables:
P216_H_NCIC_APPROVE_TABLE_NAME--->'SOR_ALIAS'
P216_H_NCIC_APPROVE_KEY_VALUE--->#ALIAS_ID#
and I declare a dynamic action to execute PL/SQl code as :
event: click
selection type: JQuery seclector
JQuery selector: a.alias_ncic
declare
begin
sor_admin.update_NCIC_verify_date(:P216_H_NCIC_APPROVE_TABLE_NAME, :P216_H_NCIC_APPROVE_KEY_VALUE);
end;However, the PL/SQL was called but raised exception that both the parameters are null. It looks when user click the column link, the value is not passed to hidden items. Could you help me on this?

How to add a link to your message

Does anyone know how to add a link to a message?

laptopman,
As Klaus1 posted, you can also use the Character Palette.
In the Palette, select View : Glyph > Glyph Catalog. You will find the , among others, there.
You can copy & paste, or position the cursor where you want the glyph in a document, highlight the glyph, and click on Insert with Font.
If the Character Palette is not in your Menubar, open System Preferences > International > Input Menu: Checkmark Show input menu in menubar.
To open the Palette, click on the Flag icon in the Menubar, and select Show Character Palette.

How do I disable linked smart-object auto-update/refresh?

Working in the CC3D features, I am constantly making changes to my bump map. Every time I step-backwards, or make a significant change to the bump texture (smart object?), CC auto-saves the layer. This specific file is a very very large document (3 gigs in the bump texture layer alone), and the 3D layer has lots of lights and is very complex. This auto-refresh/update really bogs down the time that it would take me to make my changes. I have a very fast machine (I know it's fast, I dont need to list my specs), and I have all shadows disabled.
How do I disable linked smart-object auto-update/refresh?

If you do not like a feature like smart objects there is nothing forcing you to use it. Use some other features to do what you want. Please don't ask Adobe to introduce bug into smart object support.
You could work on your bump maps textures in external files. When your done some time in the future you could edit your project with the smart object layer and use replace smart object. Only then will all smart filters be applied to the smart layer with the replaced smart object.
Or if by CC Auto save Layer you referring to CC Generate feature you can disable that feature.
I have no idea what your referring to when you write "CC auto-saves the layer" being a feature. I know CC Generate will write layers out as web files but that more a Web feature then a 3d feature. Where do you see your layer being saved?

How can i re-link .mpkg and .pkg files to hidden Installer?

I am near the end of the process of setting up my new Mac Pro (early 2009) eight core. Quite the wonderful difference from my "Mirror Drive Door" dual 1.25 GHz machine!
The Mac Pro came with Mac OS X 10.6.2 installed. I updated this to 10.6.6 via Software Update along with a slew of other updates presented there. I downloaded and installed a bunch of software. Finally, I was ready to install iLife 11 from the "CPU Drop-in" DVD that was on top of the box when the computer was originally unpacked.
Unfortunately, it wouldn't even begin the install. The "iLife.mpkg" file, when double-clicked, returned the error message "no application associated with this document". Hours of investigation reveals that NO .mpkg or .pkg file will open; doing a "get info" on the files reveals that those files have lost their link to the Installer app.
AND since the only installer I can find is hidden in /usr/sbin, there is no way I can re-link .mpkg and .pkg files to it via "get info".
I downloaded Pacifist and used it to open the "Mac OS X 10.6.6 Combo" package and re-installed the Combo updater. Much to my surprise, that didn't fix the linking issue.
I've logged in as root, but still can't re-link the package files to the Installer as /usr/ is still hidden. Is there a way I can temporarily "un-hide" the /usr directory so that "get info; open with" can see it?
I've started from the Mac OS X installer DVD and repaired permissions on the hard disk and "repaired" the hard disk. No luck there either.
I did a clean install of Mac OS X 10.6.2 to a different hard drive and applied the combo updater and the packages worked as expected there. So some software I installed or by running a slew of updaters via Software Update broke the link between packages and the Installer.
I'm sure that re-linking to packages to the hidden installer app can be done via Terminal and possible other ways, but I don't know how to do it.
Short of doing a complete Mac OS X 10.6 re-installation and update and having to re-do several days of other software installations and data transfers, I'm hoping someone will offer some solutions or tips on how to solve my problem.
How do I re-link .mpkg and .pkg files to the Installer?

Thanks for the reply. I know I had previously checked for the missing installer in /System/Library/CoreServices/ and I rechecked and it's still not there. But your tip spurred me to check the test 10.6.6 installation on the other hard disk and yes! It's there!
A quick copy from the second hard disk to my current hard disk and doing the "get info" trick and everything now works wonderfully. Only one day lost to trying to figure this out. Now that the problem is fixed, quite the relief.

How to keep track of how many times a link has been clicked?

How to keep track of how many times a link has been clicked or accessed? Do I need to use database for this?

Hi
Proably something like this can work,
1> Have a servlet/bean invoked when the link is linked
2> have a static variable in that servlet/bean wich gets incremented before the control is passed to another desired page..
The problem with this approach is that care has to be taken that the servlet/bean is not re-instalised, in case of which the static variable will also be instalised and the data would be lost.
The best thing is to store the count in the database.

Arathi.

How do I create linked LOVs in a JSP

We are attempting to create a list of values (LOV) for a group of categories on a jsp page. We would like the LOV to be populated with the category names. Next to the category LOV we would like to have a link get subcategories that when clicked would return to the same jsp page, set the value of the LOV to the category selected, and populate a second LOV with sub-category names for the selected category.
We have created an sql-only View Object (VO) for the categories and linked it to an sql-only VO for the subcategories (in a master-detail relationship) and added the VOs to an app module. We have tested the link between the two VOs with successful results.
We would like to know how to create a linked pair of LOVs on a jsp page. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Les,
If I understand correctly, you can do this fairly simply.
First create datasources:
<jbo:DataSource name="dsCategories" ...
<jbo:DataSource name="dsSubCategories" ...
<% // add a where clause to SubCategories based on the parameter "CategoryNumber"
String categoryNumber = params.getParameter("CategoryNumber");
// Make sure to default to something if the parameter is null or you'll get an error
if (categoryNumber == null)
categoryNumber = "1";
dsSubCategories.getRowSet().setWhereClauseParam(0, categoryNumber);
// execute the query on dsSubCategories to ensure that the where clause reflects on this page
dsSubCategories.getRowSet().executeQuery();
Create a form with your drop down lists.
1. I would create a <form> that posts to the same page.
2. Add a <jbo:FormEvent> tag with a custom event name like "getSubcategories".
3. Create a LOV that isn't connected to the database:
<jbo:InputSelect multiple="false" displaydatasource="dsCategories" displaydataitem="CategoryName" displayvaluedataitem="CategoryNumber" ></jbo:InputSelect>
4. Create a second LOV that also isn't connected to a datasource. It would look like this:
<jbo:InputSelect multiple="false" displaydatasource="dsSubCategories" displaydataitem="SubCategoryName" displayvaluedataitem="SubCategoryNumber" ></jbo:InputSelect>
5. Add a submit button
That should work. Some things to note:
1. This probably won't track your previously selected options. I don't know if you can do that with this interface.
2. I'd add some javascript to postback when a new list item is selected.
Based on these points I would code the select list by hand like this:
<select name="CategoryNumber" size="1" onchange="this.form.submit()">
<% String curCatNumber="";
String CatNumber = params.getParameter("CategoryNumber");
if (CatNumber == null)
CatNumber = "1";
<jbo:RowsetIterate datasource="dsCategories" >
<jbo:Row id="rowCategory" datasource="dsCategories" action="active" >
<% curCatNumber = ((oracle.jbo.domain.Number)rowCategory.getAttribute("Category")).toString();%>
<option value="<%=curParlimentId%>"
<% if (CatNumber.equals(curCatNumber)) { %>selected<% } %>>
<jbo:ShowValue datasource="dsCategories" dataitem="CategoryName" ></jbo:ShowValue>
</option>
</jbo:Row>
</jbo:RowsetIterate>
</select>
The second would be similar.
Hope this answered your question!

How to email a "link" from Safari?

Since upgrading to Lion I can't figure out how to send a "link" from a Safari page in Apple's Mail. Example: I am surfing "MacSurfer" and I click on a link to read it. I then decide to email the link to my daughter. I used to be able to open Mail and drag the URL into the body of the email. Now, in Lion, the URL of the link just says "Go To This Address". I can't seem to have both apps (Safari and Mail) open at the same time on my desktop. And what's up with the "Go To This Address" thing in the URL so often?
I have both Mail and Safari each set up as "Full Screen" so they will be permanently stuck on a desktop in Mission Control. Could this have something to do with it?
I'm also running into another issue in Safari. If I click on a link and a new page opens many times there are no "traffic lights" (red, yellow, green in upper left of page) and the "Back" arrow is greyed out. Also, the contextual menu does not offer to go back. The only way to close the page is to quit, which causes me to close Safari all together.
What am I missing?
And while I'm on my ***** fest here…I'm not thrilled with this new discussion board either. It wasn't broke, so why "fix" it? (Maybe I'm just getting old and don't adapt to change so well.) OK, I feel better now!

Can someone help?
In Safari File: Mail:Link o This Page has stopped working on my macbook pro running Lion-- all of a sudden I am seeing this error message when I want mail a website link to someone:
An email message can’t be created to send the link because Safari can’t find an email application.
This message does not show when I click on a hyperlink within the body of a webpage viewed in Safari.
This does not happen in Firefox. The File: Mail Link works just fine. Maybe I should stop using Safari but I like it!!!
I checked all of the system preferences suggested in various support documents. Did I miss something?

How to get the link of already archived document

Dear all,
How to get the link of already archivied document. for example i have a sales order for which subsequent documents have been archived. now i want to get the link of subsequent document.
please give some solution
Thanks in advance
Thanks,
Hemachandran.

Hemachandran,
The archiving object for sales order is SD_VBAK. If you run the program S3VBAKAU by transaction se38 and search based on the document numbers ( as you mentioned it is the preceeding document numbers to the current document), you will be able to retrieve the information regarding the previous sales orders.
More information on the sales order archiving object can be found at,
