          Sure, but that's only an example. As far as replication goes between primary
          and secondary, since this object represents a running process, some mechanism
          should be provided to detect the situation when primary failed and this object
          is accessed on the secondary - storing server ip in the constructor and comparing
          it to the current - if they do not match the process needs to be restarted or
          some other action taken.

          This thing does not spawn any new threads - it uses weblogic execute ones.
          If there is a public api which does the same (not JMS) please do follow up -
          it will be very useful.

  • How can I embed an DOCTYPE HTML Form from Adobe Forms central into a responsive html5 page?

    How can I embed an DOCTYPE HTML Form from Adobe Forms central into a responsive html5 page?
    -Luis

    Hi,
    You can embed the form on your website, but you need to make sure that javascript has been enabled in the browser. You need to copy the embed code and add it into your HTML code. If you would like FormsCentral to generate embeded HTML form without using javascript, you may post a feature request and vote it. Hope it helps! Thanks!

  • How to retrieve data from the HTML form in the JEditorPane?

    I could quite easily use JEditorPane to render and display a simple HTML file.
    My HTML looks like this:
    <html>
    <head>
    <title> simple form</title>
    </head>
    <body bgcolor="cccccc">
    <center><h1>SURVEY THING</h1>
    </center>
    <form id="survey">
    <p>1.Type something in.</p>
    <textarea cols=25 rows=8>
    </textarea>
    <BR>
    <p>2.Pick ONLY one.</p>
    <input type="radio" name="thing" value="0" Checked> NO choice <BR>
    <input type="radio" name="thing" value="1"> First choice <BR>
    <input type="radio" name="thing" value="2"> Second choice
    <BR>
    <p>3.Pick all you like.</p>
    <input type="checkbox" name="stuff" value="A"> A <BR>
    <input type="checkbox" name="stuff" value="B"> B <BR>
    <input type="checkbox" name="stuff" value="C"> C <BR>
    <input type="submit" value="give data">
    <input type="reset" value="do clensing">
    </form>
    </body>
    </html>
    It gets diplayed fine and I can type in text, select radio buttons (they behave mutualy-exclusive,
    as they should) and check checkboxes.
    The problem I have is with retrieving the values which were entered into the form.
    If I, after editing, try to write the html to the file using HTMLWriter,
    it records the changes I made into the textarea, however all the radio and checkbox selections are lost.
    Maybe the problem is that when I enter the values I do not use any methods like
    insertBeforeStart and so on, but I believe I shouldn't need to use them to populate a form.
    Especially I never change the structure of the HTML.
    Also, when I try to traverse the Element tree and see the input elements attributes,
    I can never see a change in the entered values. However it is probably b/c I am traversing through
    the model and the changes are in the view (just a guess.)
    Anyway, if anybody could direct me onto the right path: how to retrieve the values typed in the form,
    or if it is possible at all in the JEditorPane, I would greatly appreciate.
    thanks

    PS. I have seen the answer to a similar question posted some time last year. However, I am trying
    to find a soultion which allows forms/surveys to be built by people who have no java and only basic
    html knwledge. And Axualize way is probably a little bit too "high-tech."

    Maybe helpful for u.

    That's just the way I do it. There are probably better ways. I think I tried pasting from MS-Word to Dreamweaver and then to the blog, but there was still a lot of re-formatting that needed to be done (if I recall correctly).

  • JSP and JavaScript! How to put session values into html form?

    I have a master form which goes to detail form to input data and back to master to Confirm submit operation. I want to put all the form data into request or session variable so it can be retrieved in both the forms. In master form i want to use it in the following way:
    MasterForm-onLoad(){
    check for form data Object in the session/request
    if the data exists
    populate the form fields (by getter methods of form data object)
    Show the input from detail form
    otherwise
    show empty form
    Now the problem is that it throws null pointer exception if the form data does not exist and i try to access it within an IF statement.
    I beleive this is coz the JSP code will be executed on the server before the html page is loaded. Can any one please tell me how to solve this problem.
    Thanks and Best Regards
    Gul

    thats exactly what i m doing but the session variable is not a simple variable or objct, its a serializable object with getters and setters which i will call to retrieve its values. its like this
    FormBean formData=(FormBean) session.getAttribute("formData");
    now in javaScript i will have to check if the formData is null and than perform the getters or setters.
    <script>
    function getValues(){
    if("<%formData%>"!="null"){
    form1.SID.value="<%=formData.getIDVal()%>"
    </script>
    thats what i was trying to do but the problem is all jsp code will be executed before the page is loaded so it will try to execute inside of the if statement even when the object is null so NullPointerException.
    The only way i have got it working so far is to retrieve all the values in the JSP scriptlet, and than use the individual variables as u also mentioned.... SO Far i havnt been successful in calling getter methods in JavaScript. you think it can be done?
    Thanks for the reply

  • How can I set up an HTML form to send iCal invites from a chosen date?

    I am working on a site that has a form for booking appointments, and I have used a popup calendar and time for users to select. However, this needs to be sent to the recipient as an iCal event via email so they can just click Accept and it goes into their calendar. Is this possible, and if so how would I go about doing it? Any advice or help much appreciated!
    Thank you
    Michael

    Man this is some heavy work; I would suggest moving this on to the "Server" section of support as they have more business workarounds.

  • Validating HTML form generated by servlet

    Hi, folks. I have a dynamic html form generated by a servlet class. Once user fills up the form and submits it, i have another servlet does the form validation. My question is how can i reload the generated html form with error messages when user's inputs failed validation?
    I am not able to use JavaScript pop-up windows for doing validation cause the page will be displayed on PDA and cell phone as well. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Could you combine the servlets.
    I'm not sure but then you may be able to have the generator servlet in the doGet method and the validator in the doPost method. (don't quote me on this)
    If you combine the servlets you have access to the original data (the form), that way if any validation errors occur you can repost the form with their entered data and an error message.

  • In portlets, how to use a html form passing  values to the another page?

    it is well known that in web developing , we have two methods to pass values to another page.<!--

    but how to use two methods in oracle portal portlets?
    I have got a simple example which submit two values to the page for itself, means a page has a form with submit botton, user input the form with values and then submit them by submit botton, then the page recevice those values and show it .

    Hi Moonsoft,
    I have already answered this query in the other post at Re: how to link more than one links in portlet?(jsp develop)
    <form name = "showPageForm" method = "POST" action = "<%= UrlUtils.htmlFormActionLink(pReq,UrlUtils.PAGE_LINK) %>">
      <%= UrlUtils.htmlFormHiddenFields(pReq,UrlUtils.PAGE_LINK, "showPageForm") %>
      <input type="text" name="param1">
      <input type="text" name="param2">
      <input type="hidden" name="myPPN" value="/htdocs/page2.jsp">
    </form>then in your jsp code on page2.jsp, you will extract the parameters by specifying
    <%
      String p1 = request.getParameter("param1");
      String p2 = request.getParameter("param2");
    %>
    >>this is easy common jsp or asp development, but in oracle is too diffcult!!!!
    :-) .. there is a difference between web-applications and portlets, you just need to get used to it once. I hope this does clarify your doubts.
    thanks,

  • Unable to detect any parameter in html (webresource) when value is passed from onload method of form

    Unable to detect any parameter in html (webresource) when value is passed from onload method of form
    I am trying out some stuff. For which I created a simple Entity. In the form of the entity I have added a simple web resource (html). And for the onload of the form I am calling the following function
    function HelpDeskActivityOnLoadhandler()
     var customParameters = encodeURIComponent("first=First Value&second=Second Value&third=Third Value");
        Xrm.Utility.openWebResource("tsi_scriptzz",customParameters);
    Here is the code for the  tsi_scriptzz.html
    <html>
     <body>
      <script type="text/javascript">
        var vals = new Array();
        if (location.search != "") {
         vals = location.search.substr(1).split("&");
         for (var i in vals) {
          vals[i] = vals[i].replace(/\+/g, " ").split("=");
      </script>
     </body>
    </html>
    MY PROBLEM IS -> location.search is always coming back with empty string. So, it not getting the parametrs I am passing from the load method of the form.
    Could someone kindly help me.
    Thanks,
    Hasib

    Hello, I tried it myself. I got a new_test.htm file and a new_test.js file. The loadWebResource function is called on the OnLoad event of an Entity.
    function loadWebResource()
    var params = encodeURIComponent('param1=value one&param2=value two&param3=value three');
    Xrm.Utility.openWebResource('new_test.htm', params);
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Web Resource Parameter Example</title>
    <!-- Use ../ClientGlobalContext.js.aspx if your webresource is in a deeper folder on CRM -->
    <script src="ClientGlobalContext.js.aspx" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    document.onreadystatechange = function () {
    if (document.readyState == 'complete') {
    var params = getParams();
    for(var i=0; i<params.length; i++)
    log(params[i].name + ' ' + params[i].value);
    // this functions puts the params in a 'dictionary format'
    // f.e params[0].name = param1 & params[0].value = 'value one'
    // You could customize this function or find some on the internet to retrieve a param fe by name...
    // This is just an example how to get the name and values
    function getParams(){
    var params = [];
    var querystring = Xrm.Page.context.getQueryStringParameters().Data;
    var querystringparts = querystring.split('&');
    for(var i=0; i<querystringparts.length;i++)
    var split = querystringparts[i].split('=');
    params.push({
    name: split[0],
    value: split[1]
    </script>

    Hope it helps now. Kind Regards

  • How can an applet retrieve the values of a HTML form shown in a JEditorPane

    Hi,
    I'm doing an applet that contains a JTree and a JEditorPane
    among other components. Each node of the JTree represents some
    information that is stored in a database, and whenever a JTree
    node is selected, this information is recovered and shown in
    the JEditorPane with a html form. To make the html form,
    the applet calls a servlet, which retrieves the information of
    the node selected from the database. This information is stored
    like a XML string, and using XSLT, the servlet sends the html
    form to the applet, which shows it in the JEditorPane.
    My problem is that I don't know how I can recover new values
    that a user of the application can introduce in the input fields
    of the html form. I need to recover this new values and send them
    to another servlet which store the information in the database.
    If someone could help me I'd be very pleased.

  • How can i get the value from a HTML Form

    hi,
    I am using HTML form (logfrm). there are userId field,password field, submit button,reset button, and a link.
    when i click on the link, it should fetch the value of userid.
    How it is possible?
    AE

    use jsp:
    which lets you embed java statments in your html -so you when you click on the link you can use request.getParameter("userID") to get the userid.
    Ideally with html forms use a combination of jsp and java beans, where the fields in the form are also fields in your java bean, which you can access through setters and getters.
    google for some jsp tutorials.

  • How can I change the order of html form data submitted to me via email?

    I am having customers contact me via an html form posted on my website using the "sendtoemail" command. When I receive the data in an e-mail it  is not presented in the order it appears on the web page and I can't seem to find out what dictates the order the data is presented in or how I can change it.
    Anyone have any ideas on how I can make HTML form data elements appear in the order I want?
    Thanks,
    Andy
