How to edit a post here in the forum?

I have noticed several posts in which the original author of the post went back into it to edit it.
How is that done? There have been many times I wanted to go back and edit.
Thank you.

Jabberwock, the experiment went like a slide on ice.
I did say that I would return in 15 minutes to edit a second time, but I got tied up in other things and returned to my office in about 40 minutes. I clicked onto my post as it existed in the forum list, but when it came up, it did not have that icon of the pen, so I figured that too much time had elapsed and I just let it go.

Edit: Oh oh. I think I discovered what might have happened. When I sent this message to be posted, a copy of the message remained "behind." THAT message had the pen icon on it. So my mistake was to go to the forum topic list for my message rather than to return to that particular page that acts like a holding tank for messages that I recently posted.
I might be way off base here, and if I am I hope someone clarifies so that anyone who is just starting out won't be misled by what I say here.....

How to edit a particular row in the table ctrl when a push button is clickd

Hi Experts,
How to edit a particular row (except the Primary keys) after selecting it in the TABLE CONTROL when a
push button is clicked in the table control.
For Eg. If you have a push button say "Modify", the particular row what we select in the table control should be in a
editable mode after clicking "Modify" Push button.
Please help me out.
Thanks in advance.

Hey Ram,
Thanks a ton.
Its working fine...sorry for the late reply.
The reason behind the delay is because i had modified my code as per your logic it worked fine but the thing is that the whole column was in editable mode but not a single row.
For E.g If i want to edit a particular row, first i select the row and then click on "Modify" button. After i click on the button, the whole column gets in a editable mode including the one which i intentionally selected.
Here, the solution is that you have to set a flag in PBO so that once it is done with PBO then it need not come back again after we click on "Modify" button.
And one more query is that after you modify a particular row in the table control ( When it is in editable mode) and click on the "Save" button, it is not getting updated to database.
To update the database, we need to select the row once again after modifying it and click on the "Save" button.
Here, database is updating only when it is selected again. If it is not selected, it is not getting updated.
If you have any alternative solution, then please help me out.( I hope i am clear with the question.)
Thanks,
Ananth.

HT2534 my sister just send me an apps card from japan, how can i use it here in the philippines

my sister just send me a apps card, how can i redeem it here in the philippines?

You can't, all iTunes gift cards are country-specific, they can only be used in their country of issue - so to redeem a Japanese gift card you will need to be in Japan with a Japanese iTunes account and billing address. Can you send it back to your sister ?

Illustrator crashes when I use the move tool. No help here in the forums. Ridiculous problem that is so basic and that completly ruins workflow.

Illustrator (CS6, Creative Cloud) crashes when I use the move tool. No help here in the forums that I can see.
As far as I'm concerned this is a ridiculous problem that is so basic - it should not happen for the price Adobe charges.
Completely ruins workflow.
Please help.

Emily,
Just to make sure, are all the faces of the Verdana and Tahoma fonts installed and enabled/activated through the OS (not font mangement) as TTF (not OTF)?

How to edit a post in Apple Support Comunities?

If I just posted something and saw it had typos. Is there any way to edit the post or remove it? I have searched all over for an option to edit my post and see none. I saw someone say that it was possible to edit within 15 minutes of making the post, but no mention of how to do that.

Not sure how fair it would be to leave the initial authorship content
open for editing too long after the thread was up, since that could
make replies to original content irrelevant, or discordant over time.
And people would be more reluctant to offer advice if the first topic
were to change; since nobody else can go back very far to change
the replies. Also, we'd not want to subscribe to a thread if the name
of it changed several times a week.

How to edit a post?

Well just from the topic, can some one tell me how i can edit a post that i posted B4 at any forum? Thanks in advance.

Posts can only be edited within 15 minutes of when you made the post. After that you cannot edit it.
You'll notice new green icon to the left of the Reply button about the post. Click on it to edit the post. When that icon disappears you no longer can edit it.

How to edit my post?

Try creating a new thread in the Test and Playground forum. If you are able to then go back in and edit the thread after you create it, then chances are your post that is giving you problems is a glitch that was just an unlucky coincidence with a server reset or something similar.

How to use variables POST and personalize the fields form names

Hi friends, I need to send POST values to a external URL from APEX application to proccess a credit card and later receive the POST values to save the transaction, also the fields require have a personalized name, APEX create the field with standar names properly from APEX.
Any one can help me to solve this problem?
Thanks
Libio Balbin

I'm assuming you mean that you will be posting your page form to an external URL. This also means that the items in the form will need to have the element name be a certain name expected by the external URL. Look at Re: item name isn't what i specified to how to do this.
Basically, in the page HTML Header add a javascript function to change the name of the page items and then change the submit to go to the external website. Add to the On Load section to call the javascript when the page is loaded.

How to update my status here on the Adobe Forums?

I am here on this forum and on the left it says, "You haven't updated your status". OK I click on the link and off it sends me to where I should go to do this but I can not see anywhere as to how or where to do this. I do a Ctrl-F for a "Find" and type in the word ''status' should my eyes be failing me as to where this can be done, but nothing shows up. So I'm lost here.

Hi Thanks to all of you. I agree this isn't FB. so I was wondering what they meant by Status. I was hoping that once there I would know whether I'd want to or not, But if it is a thing similar to FB or if it has been disabled then problem solved :-)

Problem posting images on the forum (color depth)

I was posting an idea on CVI idea exchange board and was continuously getting a generic error ("Codice di errore: caricamento non riuscito" which means "error code: unsuccessful loading") while trying to add an image.
After several studies and attempts I realized that the problem is not in the image size or name or whatsoever element but rather in the color depth: it arises with 32-bit images, while you can post 24-bit images without problems. This applies to other forum boards as well (just tested on CVI board and this actual message), I suppose it is a general rule.
I don't seem to have noted any note on this in the forum help: there exists some documentation on which objects the forums accept as attachments? You know: file types, image types and characteristics, object sizes and so on...
Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

Greetings SiobhanF,
Can you please advise HP's preferred method of posting images/pictorial essay of steps tried for solution in query made by posting members!
Many thanks in advance...
Click the "Insert Image" icon up in the tool bar when you compose a reply. It's immediately to the right of the "Insert Link" icon that looks like a chain link.
Some images have to wait for Moderators to clear them. This is to prevent users from posting obscene photos, etc.

How can I change my password to the Forum?

I have a hard time remembering my password because it was generated. Is there any way I can reset it to something I can remember?

Hmmmm. Tricky question.
To find the answer, I
1) Clicked on the FAQ link (upper right side of my screen);
2) Clicked on the "I have OTN login or password problems. What do I do?" in the FAQ;
3) Clicked on the "How do I change my password?" link in that second FAQ.
and read
How do I change my password?
To change your password, make sure you are logged on and click the "Account" link in the upper right side of the page. This will bring you to the main registration page where there is a "Change Password" link in the upper right side of the page under the "Log out" link.
BUT the 'Account' link does not show up on the Forum. I needed to click on the "Oracle Technology Network" logo in the upper left side to get to the page that shows the Account link.
By the way - this kind of question is best asked in the Community Feedback (No Product Questions) forum found at

Something Fishy about log ins here on the forums

I can login and navigate to the Android Forums
if I click on Sign out I get a sign in icon
If I click on sign in, it takes me to a different Login screen
The login fails using my original login name and the UID that comes up for the forums.
I think the initial Login takes me into My Verizon where I can pay my bill or navigate to the forums
The failing login appears to take me into community.vzw.com
Are there two different login UIDs and PWs from which I can get into the Forums?

SuzyQ wrote:
No, my login for MyVerizon is a different username and password and has no connection with the forums. If I log in to MyVerizon and then go to the forums, I am prompted to log in or create an account. I keep the two separate.
Mine is the opposite.
If I browse to VZW.com I see a login prompt where my UID is remembered and I can Log in and then navigate via a dropdown to the Forums where I am recognized with a different Screen Name which allows me to post in the Forums.
If I browse to Community.vzw.com I see a Login prompt that does not remember my UID and does not allow me to log in uiding ither my UID or my screen name. If I try to discover the UID for Log in, it asks for my email address and last name and then dumps me out saying that it has no record of that email address.
This presents two problems:
1. If I am inactive and the Forum times out on me, it dumps me out to the Community.vzw.com sign in page where I am not recognized which forces me to navigate to My Verizon, Sign Out which brings me back to the Prompt that remembers my UID.
2. My Android Mobile devides can log in at VZW.com but can not navigate to the forums with the login intact. The Dropdown Menu does not appear on the Mobile devices so I have to scroll down to a Link to the Forums that takes me in as a guest.
