How to control numbers of characters in a input field?

Hi all
I need to limit the maximum of input characters to 255 in the field: vendortxt at the Shopping Cart. Do anyone know how to do this.
Regards, Bjarne

Hi,
You can use the BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI to read the number of characters entered in the text field VENDOR_TEXT and accordingly throw the error message if it exceeds 125 characters.
In the BADI,use the FM BBP_PD_SC_GETDETAIL to read the details of the SC.In the table E_LONGTEXT,you wil get the value for Vendor text.

Hi Srinu
You could achieve this by configuring error messages under the formula:-
Select the control properties and in the Input field at the Display tab write the formula
"IF((@<LEN(text)>10),'appropriate message','Records available')"
Note :- there is a LEN(text) under text functions in formula tab.

Controlling the space between label and Input field in SELECT-OPTION

Hi ,
I am using WDR_SELECT_OPTIONS as a used component in order to dynamically generate the Select option in my WD Component.
Can any one tell me if there is a way to control the spacing between Label and Input field? This is because rest of the UI elements are in one particular order but for this dynamically generated UI.
Please help me.
Thanks,
Kavitha

Hi Kavitha,
The label is required for accessibility reasons. It's not possible to remove it and to use your own label from outside the component to point to it. Labels cannot point to targets across views (and hence acress component) boundaries.

How to disable numbers in a text type or field ?

Hi,

Limitation on the number of characters in an input field

Hi All,
We are on EP 7.0 SP12.
When I select an input field/text editor and map it to a field in a BAPI it truncates the value to 80 characters and thus I get the truncated value in the result.
When I pass a value larger than 80 characters in length while doing test data service, it works fine and I face this issue only while passing the data from the screen. Is this a bug in VC? Or if any one has a solution to this?
Regards,
Murtuza

Hi Ganesh,
Following are the Answers regaring your queries:
Query : 1
There is no limitation on the number of components (objects, classes, tables, joins, hierarchies, lov's, etc) in a universe. But of course as the number of components increases, you could run into problems related to performance.
This depends on available RAM and the processing speed.
Query 2:
There is NO such option to select the number of table to be automatically inserted in to the universe because Suppose if you have 22000 tables in DB and you want only 1000 table ,you entered 1000 tables as the value to insert tables in Universe then How Designer will come to know which tables you want to take in Schema to build the Universe?
It all depends on the DBA and Universe Designer which tables are important for organizations reporting needs.
When you create connection to the DB then Connection will fetch all table from the database and we canu2019t limit DB data retrieval.
I hope this Helps...
Thanks...

How do you wrap the text on an input field with type="button"

I want to put 2 lines of text on an input field.
The button size is fixed at 75 and if there is more than 10 characters it truncates the text.
The input field is defined as :
<input type="button"
value="CI<br>Discrepency"
class="buttons75x75"
onclick="javascript:callForm('ciDiscrepency');"/>
If you can show me how, I would really appreciate it.
-Gary

Dug up the code I used to do this a while back:
//The style sheet
<style type="text/css">
    .buttonUp {
      border-style:outset;
      border-width:2px;
      width:3em;
      float:left;
      padding:2px;
      background-color:#ccc;
      text-align:center;
    .buttonDown {
      border-style:inset;
      border-width:2px;
      width:3em;
      float:left;
      padding:2px;
      background-color:#ccc;
      text-align:center;
</style>
//... Example buttons
<div class="buttonUp" onmousedown="this.className='buttonDown';"
                        onmouseup="this.className='buttonUp';"
                        onclick="alert('Clicked on Small One');">He</div>
<div class="buttonUp" onmousedown="this.className='buttonDown';"
                        onmouseup="this.className='buttonUp';">Hello</div>
<div class="buttonUp" onmousedown="this.className='buttonDown';"
                        onmouseup="this.className='buttonUp';">Hello World</div>
<div class="buttonUp" onmousedown="this.className='buttonDown';"
                        onmouseup="this.className='buttonUp';">Hello<br/>World</div>
<div class="buttonUp" style="width:5em;" onmousedown="this.className='buttonDown';"
                        onmouseup="this.className='buttonUp';">Hello World</div>You could put any javascript you want on the onclick event, so you would call the javascript you previously used to submit the form and set the input name. In this example I had all the buttons be a fixed width, if you leave out the width in the style sheet then the block will snap to fill the same width as the text inside it, much like normal buttons do. The difference is, with a fixed width then text wrapping occurs automatically (like in the 3rd button) while without a defined width the div will only display a second line when the line break is added. Note the the fixed width can be over-ruled by an inline style if needed (last sample).
The website I pointed to before has a simpler solution (less javascript events needed). An implementation for his approach would be:
//The style sheet
<style type="text/css">
    .button {
      border-style:outset;
      border-width:2px;
      color:#000;
      float:left;
      padding:2px;
      background-color:#ccc;
      text-align:center;
      text-decoration:none;
      display:block;
    .button:active {
      border-style:inset;
      border-width:2px;
      color:#000;
      float:left;
      padding:2px;
      background-color:#ccc;
      text-align:center;
      text-decoration:none;
      display:block;
</style>
//... Example buttons
<a class="button" href="#" onclick="this.blur();alert('Now you clicked linkey');return false;">Hello<br/>World</a>Same deal here with the fixed-width vs.fit-to-content. I add the 'return false;' to the list of the onclick commands so IE doesn't make the 'link clicked' noise and the URL doesn't go to thispage.html#.
All these buttons work in FireFox 2, IE 7, and Safari 3 if they are running in STRICT mode. The button colors and borders don't precisely match FF and IE buttons, but they are close (although they aren't close at all to Safari buttons).

How to capture the user change in an input field on a selection screen?

I am coding a selection screen in which there are two input fields. The first field takes a Unix directory from the user input. Based on the input value, the second field will be populated with a the name of a file under the corresponding directory.
My question is how I can make the program capture the user input without having to make the user press ENTER after they enter the value in the first field?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Venkat,
Actually you led me to the real solution! It's the function module DYNP_VALUES_READ that does the trick for me. This function enables the program to capture dynamic user changes without recourse to PAI. Please refer to the code below:

Restricting a user to enter fixed characters in an input field (mobile)

Hi All,
I have created a simple type and set its length to some fixed characters. I have mapped this simple type to an input field. When I run this application on desktop it doesn't allow the user to enter characters more than the fixed length of the simple type. But this functionality is not available on the mobile ie. when I try to enter some text in the input field on the mobile device it allows me to enter as many characters as I want and the fixed length property of the simple type doesn't work here. Can anyone suggest me a solution for this. Reply ASAP.
Thanks in advance,
Murtuza

padma,
You have to set it in the wdDoModifyView()
if ( firstTime ) {
IWDInputfield inp_field = (IWDInputfield) view.getElement("<inputField_ID>");
inp_field.requestFocus();

nikhil

The problem is that I want to map this input field to my context attribute.I am from Webdynpro background and ther its pretty easy :)....
Any suggestions will be helpful.
Thanks
Sourav

Hi,
you should add the context attribute to the html page itself, or another way of doing it is to implement the set_model method of the view controller.
On the view controller you can find a lot of usefull attributes like the view manager which can help you understand the bsp framework

How to change the format of a decimal input field?

Hello,
When creating an input field of type decimal the numbers appear at this format: 123,123.
Is it possible to disable this format and let the numbers to be displayed like this: 123123 ?
Regards,
Roy

Hi Roy,
Create a simple type in local dictionary of built in type integer. In the representation tab you can give any format you want. For your requirement you can give ####### in the format. You can also try other formats like ##,#### etc. Now create a context attribute and in it's type property give the simple type you have created by selecting the appropriate folder. Now map this attribute with the input field.

Jaydeep

How to enter numbers in Arabic font in the fields

Hi Everyone,
I installed Adobe Reader 10.0.1 multi-Language and I am able to enter Arabic alphabet in the fields, but when I enter numbers in the fileds, it is English. I don't have this issue in MS-Word. i.e., both letters and numbers depend on my keyboard setting and is English or Arabic respectively. The numbers setting in windows in "depend on context" and I think is fine. Do you know how I can fix this issue? Is there any setting in Adobe that overwrights the Windows setting for numbers?
Thanks a lot

I won't say I am very clear about this topic. But I will give an example, which seems to show that number (in the double type) is logically of the form -000.00 while locale spacific String object can be both of the forms "000.00-" and "-000.00"
// you can show the string below (formatted) on a JLabel with the following
//<JLabel_instance>.setFont(new Font("Lucida Sans", Font.PLAIN, 22));
NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getInstance(new java.util.Locale("ar","EG"));
//NumberFormat nf = NumberFormat.getInstance(new java.util.Locale("fr","Fr"));   // compare
DecimalFormat df=null;
DecimalFormatSymbols dfs= null;
if (nf instanceof DecimalFormat) {
      df = (DecimalFormat)nf;
      dfs = df.getDecimalFormatSymbols();
      dfs.setZeroDigit('\u0660');// set the beginning of the range to Arabic digits.. this can be commented out
      df.setDecimalFormatSymbols(dfs);
String formatted = nf.format(-1234567.89);
