How to display a dialog box?

I finally have my application accepting data through a form and posting to a MySQL database.
Now, when a record has been successfully posted to the database I would like a dialog box to appear saying "Data saved in database...click OK to continue" and the user clicks on the OK button and goes back to the front back of the application.
How can I make a dialog box appear, or what are the alternatives (if this is not possible).
Thanks,
Peter

Typically you would name each object in your user interface (the name is not necessarily the same as the visible text in the button, but it might be).
Then the name of the button is passed into the on clicked handler where you can deal with it how you like:
on clicked theObject
  if name of theObject = "button1name" then
    -- code to display your dialog
  else if name of theObject = "button2name"
    -- user clicked a different button, so that code goes here
  end if
end clicked
You can extend this to run any actions based on the object that was clicked.

Displaying a dialog box.

I have to display a dialog box by using ADF faces. I am able to create a pop up, but need a dialog box in its place. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
thanks.
Minaz.

Hi Minaz!
The Dialog Framework creates a popup window. In that window you can add 'normal' jsf pages (with or without workflow). The advantage is, that you have direct access to the values that you have put into tze dialog form. See that article: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/101/howtos/adfdialog/index.html

How to add FONT DIALOG box to my notepad application

hai friends.......

Start by going through the Swing tutorials linked from the topic listing page of the [_Swing forum_|http://forums.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=57]. When you are confident of being capable of displaying a dialog with the components you need, correctly layed out, check out the API for GraphicsEnvironment#getAllFonts and Font@canDisplyUpTo.
Any Swing related questions you might have along the way should be posted in the Swing forum.

How to launch a dialog box programmatically

I'm working on my first ADF form and my first Java program (the backing bean) and I need some help with how to launch a dialog box from the backing bean instead of a button.
Here is the background of what I am doing: I created an ADF form whereby a user chooses an Excel spreadsheet from their local drive and submits it. The backing bean reads through the spread sheet fields, does some validations, etc. then writes out a fixed length file on the weblogic server. This part works fine. But I wanted to add a dialog in after the spreadsheet is read but before the file is written that displays the number of records that were read and give them the option to hit OK to continue or Cancel which will stop execution of the form and maybe display a cancelled msg. Not sure how to do this part. How can I invoke the dialog from the code? Do I still need to have a button to get an action listener, but just not display it on the form? I'm a bit confused on this part. Any advice or examples would be appreciated. Thanks.

here popup involves

        DialogEvent.Outcome outcome = dialogEvent.getOutcome();
        if (outcome == DialogEvent.Outcome.ok)
           RichPopup popup = this.getPp1();
           RichPopup.PopupHints hints = new RichPopup.PopupHints(); //empty hints renders dialog in center of screen
            popup.show(hints);

How to know a dialog box is opened?

Hi friends
I am developing a VI which automatically opens a URL. As soon as URL opens, it displays a dialog box for entering password. But we don't know when this dialog box opens. How to detect that the dialog box is opened so that I can paste the password?

How is this URL opened? Does a browser open up, or do you have a browser embedded on your VI's front panel via ActiveX (assuming you're on Windows)? If you're not on Windows, which OS are you running? If you are running on Windows then you can use the Windows API to check if a window exists. You can get them in several locations on the NI site. Here's one place.

Portal 7.3 masthead customization - How to remove Logoff dialog box "Are you sure you want to logoff?"

Portal 7.3 masthead customization - How to remove Logoff dialog box "Are you sure you want to logoff?"
I have recently upgraded our portal to 7.3 sps10 and we are using the Ajax framework
I have a requirement to Remove the Logoff Dialog box "Are you sure you want to logoff?"
I am able to Import masthead.war into NWDS and get the project ready for development with the appropriate jar and libraries.
I am able to deploy the project also. I need help finding How to turn this dialog box off and just log the user off. I was able to accomplish this in Classic frame work page HeaderiView.jsp.
I have looked at afpmasthead.org.sj and masthead.jsp. I am not a js/jsp developer.
I can see the logoff dialog box being created but I am having trouble finding the logoff code.
Please advise me on the code changes required to remove the Logoff dialog box "Are you sure you want to logoff?" from the Ajax framework.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Sarah

Thank you Troy for your Helpful Threads.
Problem Solution:
Followed the thread on How to download and change AFP Masthead on SAP Portal 7.3
Located the file which contains the logoff code from thread http://scn.sap.com/thread/3265584
The File with the Logoff coding in it is a Javascript file afpmasthead.js
Identified logoff code without dialog box using this thread https://scn.sap.com/thread/3307601
NovaDialogBox.performLogout(); (perform logoff)
I was able to remove the Logoff dialog box Do you really want to logoff? And replace it with logging the user off.
afpmasthead.js All the code is on 1 line, To fix this go to -->Source -->Format
Comment out the following lines of code and replace with logoff code
logoffLinkElement.onmouseup= function(aS) {
logoffLinkElement.onmouseup= function(aS) {
NovaDialogBox.performLogout();

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
*Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
*In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
*In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
*Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
* [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
* [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

How to insert a dialog box which prompt the user enter the general information in the SDI application?

Im using the SDI application to build a system and now i would like to insert a dialog box which allow the user to enter the general information about themselves and then it will be saved into a text file. How to insert the dialog box and show the dialog box at the beginning of the program.

Hi Lee,
The easyest way to achieve this is to declare an object of your dialog box derived class (e.g. CUserInfo, public CDialog) into the InitInstance method of the main application class.
Depending on the behavior you want you can place the code before dispatching the commands from command line (in which case the main frame of the SDI application will not be shown), or after, in which case the UserInfo dialog box will be shown over the main application window as modal.
The code snipped bellow can be more helpfull:
BOOL CSDIApp::InitInstance()
AfxEnableControlContainer();
// Parse command line for standard shell commands, DDE, file open
CCommandLineInfo cmdInfo;
ParseCommandLine(cmdInfo);
//prompt user for data
CUserInfo dlg;
if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
//do something here with the data
else
return FALSE;//i.e. quit the application if the user presses the 'Cancel' button
// Dispatch commands specified on the command line
if (!ProcessShellCommand(cmdInfo))
return FALSE;
// The one and only window has been initialized, so show and update it.
m_pMainWnd->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);
m_pMainWnd->UpdateWindow();
return TRUE;
Hope this helps,

How to display Lines and Boxes in SAP Script

hi,
Can any one help me how to display Lines and Boxes in SAP Script.
Regards
kiran

The SAP printer drivers based on page-oriented printers use these commands when creating output whereas the line printers and non-supported page-oriented printers ignore these commands.
Syntax:/: BOX [XPOS] [YPOS] [WIDTH] [HEIGHT] [FRAME] [INTENSITY]
This command draws a box of the specified size at the specified position.
The following calculation is performed internally to determine the absolute output position of a box on the page:
X(abs) = XORIGIN + XPOS
Y(abs) = YORIGIN + YPOS
WIDTH determines the width of the box.
Default: WIDTH value of the SIZE command.
HEIGHT determines height of the box.
Default: HEIGHT value of the SIZE command.
FRAME determines the thickness of frame.
Default: 0 (no frame).
INTENSITY determines the box contents as a grayscale percentage.
Default: 100 (full black)
The other details I guess is provided by friends who have posted before me.

K.Sibi

Displaying Where Dialog Box in Forms 10g at runtime

hi all,
In Forms 6i, I was able to display the Where Dialog box to define complex search conditions by entering <b>:variable_name</b> in a field.
How can I do the same in Oracle 10g Forms at runtime?
thanks in advance.
