How to edit items of a combo box that is part of an array of clusters

Hi,
In the attached vi, I have an array of clusters, and each cluster contain two combo boxes. How do I edit the items in Combo Box 1 for all elements of the array? (All Combo Box 1 elements shall include the same items.)
For illustration, I also included the trivila case, i.e., editing the items in a separate combo box that is is not part of an array of clusters (Combo Box 3). Please advise. Thanks.
Peter

How to get value of html combo box (i.e select) in jsp?

Hello,
I was just wondering how to get value of html combo box in jsp page. My code for combo box is:
<select name="combo" size="1">
<%
List<Project> projects = mgr.getProjects();
for(Project project : projects){
%>
<option value="<%= project.getId()%>"><%= project.getName()%></option>
<%
%>
</select>
I thought combo.value might give me the value, but it throws exception.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

The combo does not exists in Java, but only in HTML. You have to submit the form containing the combo and then use request.getParameter("combo") to get it's value ;-)

Cant make a list/combo box that enters a different value to what you chose

Hi Any help will be very much apreciated,
Iv been turning my timesheet into a P.D.F form for filling out it started as an excell spread sheet and iv bassicialy just put txt boxs over the fields that need filling in and if made the "total" box add up all the hours so its great so far
but the problem i have is for the Premises number section i want to be able to give the user a selection of all the properties but have a number entred into the actual fields for example... you chose "smiths road sainsburys" from a list but the job number "1234" is entred into the form for printing/sending
Thanks anyone.

If I understand what you want, you can use a text box in addition to a combo box for this. For each item in the combo box, set its export value to the number you want. Then in the text box that will display the number, use the following custom Calculate script:
event.value = getField("combo1").value;
Replace "combo1" with the name of the combo box.

How to count the number of text boxes that are data entered

How to count the number of text boxes that are data entered in visual basic form.

Here is an Iterator that expands on my previous response:
''' <summary>
''' Iterator for form controls
''' </summary>
''' <param name="onlyControlsOfType">specify type if a certain type of controls needed</param>
''' <param name="onlyTopLevel">if true don't search containers within the form</param>
''' <returns></returns>
''' <remarks></remarks>
Private Iterator Function AllControls(Optional onlyControlsOfType As Type = Nothing, _
Optional onlyTopLevel As Boolean = False) As IEnumerable(Of Control)
Dim ctrl As Control = Me.GetNextControl(Me, True)
Do Until ctrl Is Nothing
If onlyControlsOfType Is Nothing OrElse ctrl.GetType = onlyControlsOfType Then
If TypeOf ctrl.Parent Is Form OrElse Not onlyTopLevel Then
Yield ctrl
End If
End If
ctrl = Me.GetNextControl(ctrl, True)
Loop
End Function
Some sample uses:
For Each
For Each c As Control In AllControls()
Debug.WriteLine(c.Name)
Next
List of all controls, including controls in containers i.e. Groupbox
Dim l As List(Of Control) = AllControls().ToList
List of all Textbox controls, including Textboxes in containers i.e. Groupbox
l = AllControls(GetType(TextBox)).ToList
List of all Textbox controls, don't include Textboxes in containers i.e. Groupbox
l = AllControls(GetType(TextBox), True).ToList

Combo Box Edits in acrobat Forms, how to do a multi-line combo box?

Could only create a one-liners for this editable combo box, is there a way to create a multi-line like the other fields?

Nope. But you can set up a multiline text field that gets populated with the complete text you want when an item is selected from a combo box.The combo box items might be abbreviated or coded versions of the complete text you want to display.

How to hide certain items in a Combo Box

I've two Combo Box(CB). First CB contain 4 items(drop-down menus) and the 2nd CB contain 12 items.
I want that when I select one of the items from Combo Box1, then only 4 out of 12 items from Combo Box2 should be visible. So actually I want first combo Box to act as filter. Could this be done using the AS3 code.

I don't think there is any way to hide items, but you can rewrite he items basd on the selectedIndex value of the cbHeight combobox. In the code below, each element of the weightData array is an array of objects.
import fl.data.DataProvider;
var weightData:Array = new Array();
weightData.push([{label: "100"},{label: "110"},{label: "120"},{label: "130"}]);
weightData.push([{label: "200"},{label: "210"},{label: "220"},{label: "230"}]);
weightData.push([{label: "300"},{label: "310"},{label: "320"},{label: "330"}]);
function heightSelected(evt:Event):void
     var hSelected:int = evt.target.selectedIndex;
     var dp:DataProvider = new DataProvider(weightData[hSelected]);
      cbWeight.dataProvider = dp;

How to populate the combo boxes that are created dynamically in jsp

Hi,
I am using JSP.
I am creating combo boxes dynamically (based on the num selected by the user). These dynamically created combo boxes need to have A-Z as options (each box) . Now, when the user chooses the option A in any of the combo-boxes,the rest should not have this option. so on..
how do i achieve this.Kindly help.

You'll need to use JavaScript...I have a complicated example and a simple example, however, I cannot really understand the complex example but I know how it works. The looping is too complex for me.
First you'll need to populate a server side variable...depending on how often the data is updated you may want this to run each time a new session is created...this example is run each time Tomcat is started and the application context is initialized:
package kms.web;
// Servlet imports
import javax.servlet.ServletContextListener;
import javax.servlet.ServletContextEvent;
import javax.servlet.ServletContext;
// utility imports
import java.util.Map;
// domain imports
import kms.domain.LocationService;
import kms.domain.DeptService;
import kms.domain.PatentService;
* This listenter is used to initialize
* the Maps of Locations, Patents & Depts used to populate
* pulldown lists in JSPs
public class InitializeData implements ServletContextListener {
    * This method creates the Maps.
   public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent sce) {
      ServletContext context = sce.getServletContext();
      LocationService lServ = new LocationService();
      // Create the Maps
      Map campuses = lServ.getCampuses();
      Map buildings = lServ.getBuildings();
      Map floors = lServ.getFloors();
      Map locs = lServ.getLocations();
      // And store them in the "context" (application) scope
      context.setAttribute("campuses", campuses);
      context.setAttribute("buildings", buildings);
      context.setAttribute("floors", floors);
      context.setAttribute("locs", locs);
      DeptService dServ = new DeptService();
      Map depts = dServ.getDepts();
      context.setAttribute("depts", depts);
      PatentService pServ = new PatentService();
      Map patents = pServ.getPatents();
      context.setAttribute("patents", patents);
      //I did this one myself
/*    CodeService cServ = new CodeService();
      Map masterMks = cServ.getCodes();
      context.setAttribute("masterMks", masterMks);
    * This method is necessary for interface.
   public void contextDestroyed(ServletContextEvent sce) {
   // I have no clue what the heck this is for???
   // Let me know if you do!
}So now we travel into the PatentService method called 'getPatents();' which in turn calls a PatentDAO method
Map patents = pServ.getPatents();
Below is the code for the PatentService object:
package kms.domain;
import kms.util.ObjectNotFoundException;
import java.util.*;
* This object performs a variety of dept services, like retrieving
* a dept object from the database, or creating a new dept object.
public class PatentService {
   * The internal Data Access Object used for database CRUD operations.
private PatentDAO patentDAO;
   * This constructor creates a Dept Service object.
public PatentService() {
    patentDAO = new PatentDAO();
public Map getPatents() {
      Map patents = null;
      try {
        patents = patentDAO.retrieveAll();
      // If the dept object does not exist, simply return null
      } catch (ObjectNotFoundException onfe) {
        patents = null;
      return patents;
}It may be useful for you to see the code of the Patent class:
package kms.domain;
/*** This domain object represents a dept.
public class Patent implements java.io.Serializable {
private int codeGgm;
private String name = "";
private String description = "";
private int creator;
private String creationDate = "";
private int used;
   * This is the full constructor.
public Patent(int codeGgm, String name, String desc, int creator, String creationDate, int used) {
    this.codeGgm = codeGgm;
    this.name = name;
    this.description = desc;
    this.creator = creator;
    this.creationDate = creationDate;
    this.used = used;
public Patent() { }
public int getCodeGgm() {
      return codeGgm;
public void setCodeGgm(int codeGgm) {
       this.codeGgm = codeGgm;
public String getName() {
    return name;
public void setName(String name) {
      this.name = name;
public String getDesc() {
    return description;
public void setDesc(String desc) {
      this.description = desc;
public int getCreator() {
      return creator;
public void setCreator(int creator) {
       this.creator = creator;
public String getCreationDate() {
      return creationDate;
public void setCreationDate(String creationDate) {
       this.creationDate = creationDate;
public int getUsed() {
       return used;
public void setUsed(int used){
       this.used = used;
}And here is the Database table which stores the Patents:
DESC PATENT:
CODE_GGM NUMBER(3)
NAME VARCHAR2(15)
DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(250)
CREATOR NUMBER(10)
CREATION_DATE DATE
USED NUMBER(1)
So, we then travel into the code of the PatentDAO to see how the DAO object executes the DB query to get all of the Data we need for the select list:
package kms.domain;
import javax.naming.*;
import javax.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.sql.*;
import kms.util.*;
* This Data Access Object performs database operations on Patent objects.
class PatentDAO {
   * This constructor creates a Patent DAO object.
   * Keep this package-private, so no other classes have access
PatentDAO() {
* This method returns a Map of all the Dept names
* The key is the Dept id
Map retrieveAll()
     throws ObjectNotFoundException {
      Connection connection = null;
      ResultSet results = null;
      // Create the query statement
      PreparedStatement query_stmt = null;
      try {
        // Get a database connection
      Context initContext = new InitialContext();
       DataSource ds = (DataSource)initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env/jdbc/keymanOracle");
       connection = ds.getConnection();
        // Create SQL SELECT statement
        query_stmt = connection.prepareStatement(RETRIEVE_ALL_NAMES);
        results = query_stmt.executeQuery();
        int num_of_rows = 0;
      Map patents = new TreeMap();
       // Iterator over the query results
        while ( results.next() ) {
            patents.put(new Integer(results.getInt("code_ggm")), results.getString("name"));
         if ( patents != null ) {
                return patents;
              } else {
                throw new ObjectNotFoundException("patent");
       // Handle any SQL errors
     } catch (SQLException se) {
        se.printStackTrace();
       throw new RuntimeException("A database error occured. " + se.getMessage());
    } catch (NamingException se) {
      throw new RuntimeException("A JNDI error occured. " + se.getMessage());
      // Clean up JDBC resources
      } finally {
        if ( results != null ) {
          try { results.close(); }
          catch (SQLException se) { se.printStackTrace(System.err); }
        if ( query_stmt != null ) {
          try { query_stmt.close(); }
          catch (SQLException se) { se.printStackTrace(System.err); }
        if ( connection != null ) {
          try { connection.close(); }
          catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(System.err); }
private static final String RETRIEVE_ALL_NAMES
      = "SELECT code_ggm, name FROM patent ";
}Now when you wish to use the 'combo box' (also called select lists), you insert this code into your jsp:
<TR>
<%@ include file="../incl/patent.jsp" %>
</TR>
depending on how your files on your server are organized, the "../incl/patent.jsp"
tells the container to look up one directory from where the main jsp is to find the 'patent.jsp' file in the 'incl' directory.
I need some help creating multi-level select lists with JavaScript:

This produces a related select list with 4 related lists by outputting JavaScript to the page being served. It works the same way as the first example that I describe but I don't understand the looping...maybe someone could explain how to go from the single select list to a double and/or triple level drill down?

Add items to a combo box list if not in existing list

I'm trying to set up a combo box for an expense report form. I want users to be able to select an account from an existing combo box list or to add an account to the list if it doesn't exist already.
Ideal situation:
For example, the user has "Office Supplies" and "Meals - Business Related" as existing options in the combo box. They need to enter a parking expense, which doesn't exist on the list, so they type in "Parking" in the combo box. They attempt to advance to the next field. A message box pops up and says, "Do you want to add "Parking" to your list of expense options? They click "Yes" and the combo box will now include Parking in the future.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

George,
Do you know of a way to save the list addition to the original file without saving any new form data with it? In other words, I would like the item to be on the list when the document is opened in the future, but if they just save it, it will save with the form data they've just entered.
Thanks!

How to get values in the combo box in a XML form?

Hi All,
    1. I have created a property which has "Default value" as "Clothings" and "Allowed Values(csv)" as Real Estate - Sales , Clothings etc" by navigating to KM > CM > Global Services > Property Metadata > Properties.
   2. In the XML form builder when I drag this property I get a combo box for this property.
   3. But when I preview this by going to Content Management > Folder > New > FORMS > and select my XML form project I get a preview but it is not showing me the default values in the combo boxes which I created using the property in XML form builder.
Please Suggest me as to how to get those values (which I mentioned in property) in the combo box ?
Thanks in Advance,
Jasmine.

Hi All,
I ll make the above Query Simple.
1.In Xml Form Builder when you drag a property which has some 3-4 assigned values so you are recomended to use a combo box.
2.But the problem after using COMBOBOX is I am not getting these values in the preview of the combo box.
3.Help Required please its urgent.
Thanks in advance,
Jasmine.

How do I retrieve data from combo boxes?

The past weekend I spent my whole weekend trying to find this
out and gone through the top 10 pages on google trying all sorts of
things. I would be grateful for anyone who can help me.
I have 6 combo boxes in a booking form and I need to retrieve
the data when someone click submits which gets forwarded on to php
then my mailbox. They are called box1_cb, box2_cb.....box6_cb All
in the instance of: ComboBox - which I don't understand what that
does.
it does not seem to be retrieving any of the data. For each
combo box:
I have the the options people can choose form in "Labels" box
under "Paramaters", nothing for "Data", Row Count is 8 and nothing
for "Change Handler" which I don't know what it does.
Can anyone please provide some help with telling me what
"change handler" does, do I need the data for each combo box in the
"Labels" parameter as well as the "Data" box, what an instance does
(for combo boxes) and what I need to put in the actionscript for
the submit button as well as do i need to put code in the
actionscript for each combo box?
The options people can choose from in the combo boxes are
there when someone views the site.
Can anyone please help me..I would greatly appriciate it.
Thanks.

If your hard drive can be detected and shows up as a drive letter in my computer but you can't access your files,then you can recover your data off it with data recovery software easily.This way is the easiest and the most inexpensive way to recover your data.If you bring it to a computer repair shop that is available for data recovery servise,they will cost you $500-1000 or more.Hmm, a lot of money.
I managed to recover data from crashed hard drive with Tenorshare Data Recovery.If needed,you can download it and scan your hard drive for free to preview whether your data can be recovered.It will show you thumbnails for recoverable pictures.

How to compare value of two Combo Box

I've two Combo Box(cbFirst & cbSecond). I want to compare the value that has been selected by the user and based on the result, output is displayed. In both Combo Box I've provided the value.
Here is my code:
var a:Number;
var b:Number;
function First(evt:Event):void{
    a = evt.target.value;
    trace(a);
cbFirst.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, First);
function Second(evt:Event):void{
    b = evt.target.value;
    trace(b);
cbSecond.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, Second);
If (a > b){
     trace("a is greater")
else
     trace(b is greater);
The trace statement inside the functions are working fine and the correct value of a & b is printed. But the comparison in the if statement doesn't seem to work. Could you please help me out.

there's a typo. fix it or remove it:
var a:Number;
var b:Number;
function First(evt:Event):void{
    a = evt.target.value;
trace(a);
   compareF();
cbFirst.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, First);
function Second(evt:Event):void{
    b = evt.target.value;
    trace(b);
compareF()
cbSecond.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, Second);
function compareF(){
If (a > b){
     trace("a is greater")
else
     trace(b is greater);
