  • How to call a SQL function from an XSL expression

    Hi
    In R12, in Payroll Deposit adivce/Check writer, We need to sort the earnings tag <AC_Earnings> in to two different categories as regular and other earnings. In the DB and form level of element defintiion we have a DFF which differentiates between the two kinds of earnings. But the seeded XML that is gerneated by the check writer does not have this field.
    The seeded template displays all the earnings in one column. How can we achieve this in the template without modifying the seeded XML.
    The one approach i have is to write a function and based on the return value sort the data. For this I need to know :

  • Calling a JavaScript function from an JApplet...

    Can anyone help? Is it possible to call a JavaScript function from within a JApplet? If so, what is the syntax? I've seen reference to the Netscape package but I've been led to believe it doesn't always work within Internet Explorer 6 which is the target browser.
    If the above is not possible can anyone tell me if and how it is possible to load images from outside the init() method of a JApplet? This would allow me to work around the problem.
    Thanks in advance - Jim.

  • Help needed in calling a javascript function from a jsp

    Hey guys,
    I need help.
    In my jsp I have a field called date. When i get date field from the database, it is a concatination of date and time field, so I wrote a small javascript function to strip just the date part from this date and time value.
    The javascript function is
    function formatDate(fieldName)
              var timer=fieldName;
              timer = timer.substring(5,7)+"/"+timer.substring(8,10)+"/"+timer.substring(0,4);
              return timer;
    Now I want to call this javascript function from the input tag in jsp where I am displaying the value of date. Check below
    This is one way I tried to do:
    <input size="13" name="startDate" maxLength="255" value=<script>formatDate("<%=startDate%>")</script> onChange="checkDate(this)">
    I even tried this:
    <input size="13" name="startDate" maxLength="255" value="'formatDate(<%=startDate%>)'" onChange="checkDate(this)">
    But it dosen't work
    Please help. I am struggling on this for days.

  • Is it possible to call a JavaScript function from a dialog?

    Hi there,
    At the moment I have created a dialog, that consists of three text fields that a user fills out, and then clicks next.
    What I am attempting to do, is pass the result of these three textboxes to a JavaScript function I have laying in a file in Web Resources. I've done some research, and I can't find anything.
    So my question is - is it possible to call a JavaScript function from a dialog?
    Thanks for your time.

    Hi,
         It is not possible unfortunately. We can start dialog from script but not the other way unfortunately. However, you can always write server side code for this and it will surely execute. So instead of javascript, write plug-in.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do you call a JavaScript function from a Java applet

    I have an Applet that needs to run on the following platforms: Internet Explorer (Windows-NT, Windows -2000), Netscape (Windows-NT, Windows-2000, Sun(Solaris), RedHat(Linux), HP(11.0), IBM(AIX)).
    The Applet needs to call a JavaScript function that is included on the HTML page that contains the applet. In JRE-1.3.1 I used the AppletContext.showDocument(url,"_self" ) where the url is "javascript:MyScript('param1')". This works just fine. I tried using showDocument without the second parameter and all the other choices for the second parameter and none of them worked (nothing happened).
    I tried the same code with JRE version 1.4-beta. It seems that version 1.4-beta no longer supports a URL that starts with "javascript" in the AppletContext.showDocument(url,"_self" ) method. The error is:
    netscape.javascript.JSException: call does not support self.open
    at sun.plugin.javascript.navig.Window.call(Unknown Source)
    at sun.plugin.ActivatorAppletContext.showDocument(Unknown Source)
    I tried to catch the JSException but I cannot seem to.
    I then tried a completely different approach. I then grabbed the JSObject for the page and tried to call my javascript function (MyScript) directly:
    JSObject theObj = JSObject.getWindow(this);
    Object paramArray[] = new Object[1];
    paramArray[0] = Param1;
    theObj.call("MyScript", paramArray);
    This worked fine on Netscape[Windows-NT, Windows-2000]. HP throws a JSException on getWindow() and Solaris just hangs. I did not even try IE.
    What is the recommended approach here?

    you can try this, it worked for me:
    JSObject win = JSObject.getWindow(this);
    win.eval(function_call);
    I have other ways also, so if this doesn't work, let me know.

  • How to call pl/sql function from element values

    EBS 11.5.10.2
    XMLP 5.6.3
    Hello,
    I noticed that the output of the rdf-to-data template conversion process makes use of an undocumented feature of data templates, and I would like to get input from experts as to which situations this feature is usable.
    The closest thing I can find in the documentation is a sample in the user guide. There is a "General Ledger Journals Data Template Example" that has a <dataStructure> section that contains <element> nodes which are NOT children of a <group> node. I can't find any explanation of this in the user guide.
    I've noticed from converted templates that in these un-grouped elements you can make calls to PL/SQL functions in the "value" attribute, like this:
    <dataStructure>
      <group name="G_LINES" source="Q_MAIN">
        <element name="Line_Num"           value="Line_Num"/>
      </group>
      <element name="C_CALCULATED_VALUE" dataType="number" value="XX_CUSTOMPROCS.SOME_FUNCTION"/>
    </dataStructure>Has anyone had any success being able to call PL/SQL functions from grouped elements? Whenever I try, it doesn't seem to work.
    When I try something like this:
    <dataStructure>
      <group name="G_LINES" source="Q_MAIN">
        <element name="Line_Num"           value="Line_Num"/>
        <element name="some_calculation"   value="XX_CUSTOMPROCS.SOME_FUNCTION"/>
        <element name="some_calculation_b" value="XX_CUSTOMPROCS.SOME_FUNCTION_B(:Line_Num)"/>
      </group>
      <element name="C_CALCULATED_VALUE" dataType="number" value="XX_CUSTOMPROCS.SOME_FUNCTION"/>
    </dataStructure>The <SOME_CALCULATION/> and <SOME_CALCULATION_B/> nodes come out empty in the output data xml file, but <C_CALCULATED_VALUE> would have a value as desired.

    ah - perfect. That makes sense. Thank you for the response!
    But what about when we need to pass parameters to those functions whos values are the results of aggregate element values?
    This happens a lot in the converted data templates, where pl/sql package functions are meant to replace formula columns from the original Oracle Report. Take this example from the conversion of ARXAGMW.rdf (Aging Report, 7 Buckets):
    (note the function call in the value of "Set_Percent_Inv_Inv" is using aggregate results from subgroups)
      <group name="G_INV_INV" dataType="varchar2" source="Q_Invoice">
        <element name="Total_Inv_Inv_Amt" function="sum" dataType="number" value="G_Invoice.C_Amt_Due_Rem_Inv"/>
        <element name="Total_Inv_Inv_B0" function="sum" dataType="number" value="G_Invoice.C_Inv_B0"/>
        <element name="Total_Inv_Inv_B1" function="sum" dataType="number" value="G_Invoice.C_Inv_B1"/>
        <element name="Total_Inv_Inv_B2" function="sum" dataType="number" value="G_Invoice.C_Inv_B2"/>
        <element name="Total_Inv_Inv_B3" function="sum" dataType="number" value="G_Invoice.C_Inv_B3"/>
        <element name="Total_Inv_Inv_B4" function="sum" dataType="number" value="G_Invoice.C_Inv_B4"/>
        <element name="Total_Inv_Inv_B5" function="sum" dataType="number" value="G_Invoice.C_Inv_B5"/>
        <element name="Total_Inv_Inv_B6" function="sum" dataType="number" value="G_Invoice.C_Inv_B6"/>
        <element name="Set_Percent_Inv_Inv"  dataType="number"  value="XX_CUSTOMPROCS.XXC_ARXAGMW.set_percent_inv_invformula(:Total_Inv_Inv_Amt, :Total_Inv_Inv_B0, :Total_Inv_Inv_B1, :Total_Inv_Inv_B2, :Total_Inv_Inv_B3, :Total_Inv_Inv_B4, :Total_Inv_Inv_B5, :Total_Inv_Inv_B6)"/>
        <element name="Sum_Percent_B0_Inv" dataType="number" value="XX_CUSTOMPROCS.XXC_ARXAGMW.Sum_Percent_B0_Inv_p"/>

        <element name="Sum_Percent_B6_Inv" dataType="number" value="XX_CUSTOMPROCS.XXC_ARXAGMW.Sum_Percent_B6_Inv_p"/>
        <group name="G_Cust_Inv" dataType="varchar2" source="Q_Invoice">
          <group name="G_Site_Inv" dataType="varchar2" source="Q_Invoice">
            <group name="G_1" dataType="varchar2" source="Q_Invoice">
              <group name="G_Invoice" dataType="varchar2" source="Q_Invoice">
                <element name="C_Amt_Due_Rem_Inv" dataType="number" value="C_Amt_Due_Rem_Inv"/>
                <element name="C_Inv_B0" dataType="number" value="C_Inv_B0"/>
                <element name="C_Inv_B1" dataType="number" value="C_Inv_B1"/>
                <element name="C_Inv_B2" dataType="number" value="C_Inv_B2"/>
                <element name="C_Inv_B3" dataType="number" value="C_Inv_B3"/>
                <element name="C_Inv_B4" dataType="number" value="C_Inv_B4"/>
                <element name="C_Inv_B5" dataType="number" value="C_Inv_B5"/>
                <element name="C_Inv_B6" dataType="number" value="C_Inv_B6"/>
              </group>
            </group>
          </group>
        </group>
      </group>
      ...All of these groups and sub-groups are based on one single query, so I am not sure how I would move the function call into the query without changing the results of the function.
    In the example above, elements Sum_Percent_B0_Inv through Sum_Percent_B6_Inv grab the results of the calculation done in set_percent_inv_invformula. Here is the essence of that function:
      sum_percent_b0_inv := ROUND ((total_inv_inv_b0 / total_inv_inv_amt) * 100, 2);
      sum_percent_b1_inv := ROUND ((total_inv_inv_b1 / total_inv_inv_amt) * 100, 2);
      sum_percent_b2_inv := ROUND ((total_inv_inv_b2 / total_inv_inv_amt) * 100, 2);
      sum_percent_b3_inv := ROUND ((total_inv_inv_b3 / total_inv_inv_amt) * 100, 2);
      sum_percent_b4_inv := ROUND ((total_inv_inv_b4 / total_inv_inv_amt) * 100, 2);
      sum_percent_b5_inv := ROUND ((total_inv_inv_b5 / total_inv_inv_amt) * 100, 2);
      sum_percent_b6_inv := ROUND ((total_inv_inv_b6 / total_inv_inv_amt) * 100, 2);The only solution I can think of is to have separate queries, one for each subgroup, that do the "sum" in sql; but that seems terribly inefficient.

  • How to call a php function from java...

    helllo fellow java developers!
    Im trying to figure out how I can call a php function from my java code.
    I know it sounds a bit unintiutive, seeing how java is a rich programming language, BUT java simply cannot do the task that the php script can do. It simply acts differently.
    So I am trying to call a php function, that returns a string object, and capture that string object....
    is this possible?
    something like....
    String strMyString = phpFunction( strVariable )
    ???????/ any ideaS?

    idea #1 - come up with a better plan that doesn't involve invoking php from java.
    Give one example of something php can do that java can't.
    idea #2 - forget java, and just write it in php.
    Involving multiple frameworks/languages/runtime environments is a recipe for an overcomplicated solution that will be impossible to maintain.
    I'd say keep it simple and stupid, and stick with one language.
    If you're still hooked on the idea, maybe try [this link|http://www.infoq.com/news/2007/10/php-java-stack]

  • How to call a codebehind function from javascript

    Hi, i need some help calling a function in my .ascx.cs of a visualwebpart for SP2013 from JS.
    The idea is to execute a function when a datepicker date is selected
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../_layouts/15/jQuery/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../_layouts/15/jQuery/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../_layouts/15/jQuery/bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    $(function () {
    $('#datetimepicker4').datetimepicker()
    .on('changeDate', function callWebMethod() {
    $.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "Visualizador.ascx/Testing",
    data: "{}",
    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
    dataType: "json",
    success: function (data) {
    alert("OK");
    error: function (jqXHR, textStatus, errorThrown) {
    alert("Error");
    </script>
    The problem is that it always return the "Error" alert.
    The functions name is "Testing" (in Visualizador.ascx.cs), the project name is "BuscadorCumple" and the VisualWebPart is "Visualizador"
    I´ve tried with the PageMethods but i can´t add a ScriptManager because the MasterPage of the site has already one, and only one ScriptManager is allowed. So if i could set the EnablePageMethods to true it would be great (to use the PageMethods), or just
    try to fix the js function from above.
    THANKS IN ADVANCE
    ------------------------------------------------Update----------------------------------------------
    Here is the method i´m using to test it, inside Visualizador.ascx.cs
    [WebMethod]
    public static void Testing()
    Response.Write("<script>alert('HW')</script>");

    Methiod should be like this
    [WebMethod]
      public static
    string GetData()
        string str="hi";   
    return str;
    Calling is like this
    $.ajax({

    url: "PageName.aspx/MethodName(GetData)",
    data: "{}",
    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",

  • Calling a JavaScript function from my class

    Here's the situation. I am trying to access a website (not my own) through a class I am writing. Some information that I need to pull off the page can only be seen when a JavaScript function is called. How can I make the page call the function from my own computer?

    Well, you could use a tool like this:
    http://httpunit.sourceforge.net/
    If the Javascript you want to call into is relatively simple it may work ok for you, but there's no guarantee - differences between the browser's libraries and the Rhino (Java's embedded Javascript) libraries may make the exercise intractable.
    You might alternatively be able to invoke the browser from Java and then screen scrape it somehow, but I can't help you with that - and it's a distinctly inelegant solution.
    If you have a legitimate reason for doing this, your best bet would be to contact the website owner and see if they can accommodate you somehow; they may even have a suitable services API for you to call into without messing about trying to render the Javascript. If you don't have a legitimate reason for doing this (one the website owner would be ok with) then my sympathy for your plight is rather limited anyway.

    What errors are you getting?
    It's always helpful to know the version of PHP and the database.
    When calling a function, you'll need a bind variable to hold the return value, and make sure the number of parameters match:
    $sql = 'BEGIN :rv := INTG$Label_DB.Get_Tagged_Labell(:Product_Name,:Branch_name,:Platform_Name,:message); END;';
