How to generate unique table row id's in a cfoutput query?

I am trying to implement a jQuery drag and drop table row function to my CF pages but in order to save my "drop" positioning to the database I need to serialize all the table row id's.What coding would I need to add so that after the cfoutput query is run, each table row would have a unique id (ie. tr id="1", tr id="2", etc.)? Thanks.

Utilize the CurrentRow variable that's automatically available within your query output:
<cfoutput query="myQry">
          <tr id="row#currentRow#">
                    <td>...</td>
          </tr>
</cfoutput>
that will give you:
<tr id="row1">
          <td>...</td>
</tr>
<tr id="row2">
          <td>...</td>
</tr>
<tr id="row3">
          <td>...</td>
</tr>
etc...

How to reject external table rows with some blank columns

How to reject external table rows with some blank columns
I have an external table and I would like to reject rows when a number of fields are empty. Here are the details.
CREATE TABLE EXTTAB (
ID NUMBER(10),
TSTAMP DATE,
C1 NUMBER(5,0),
C2 DATE,
C3 FLOAT(126)
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL (
TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY EXT_DAT_DIR
ACCESS PARAMETERS (
RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
LOAD WHEN (NOT (c1 = BLANKS AND c2 = BLANKS AND c3 = BLANKS))
LOGFILE EXT_LOG_DIR:'exttab.log'
BADFILE EXT_BAD_DIR:'exttab.bad'
DISCARDFILE EXT_BAD_DIR:'exttab.dsc'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "|"
LRTRIM
MISSING FIELD VALUES ARE NULL
REJECT ROWS WITH ALL NULL
FIELDS (
ID,
TSTAMP DATE 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS',
C1,
C2 DATE 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS',
C3
) LOCATION ('dummy.dat')
REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED
So, as you can see from the LOAD WHEN clause, I'd like to reject rows when C1, C2 and C3 are empty.
The above statement works fine and creates the table. However when I am trying to load data using it, the following error is produced:
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEOPEN callout
ORA-29400: data cartridge error
KUP-00554: error encountered while parsing access parameters
KUP-01005: syntax error: found "not": expecting one of: "double-quoted-string, identifier, (, number, single-quoted-string"
KUP-01007: at line 1 column 41
ORA-06512: at "SYS.ORACLE_LOADER", line 14
ORA-06512: at line 1
It seems that external tables driver does not understand the "NOT (...)" condition. Could anyone suggest how I can achieve what I want in a different way?
Thank you.
Denis

Another method would be to simply remove the "LOAD WHEN condition" and create a view on the external table which filters the data.
CREATE EXTTAB_VIEW AS
SELECT * FROM EXTTAB
WHERE not (c1 is null and c2 is null and c3 is null);

How to generate unique numbers

hi all,
I want to generate unique numbers always starting from 1 using a single sql query and I dont want to use a sequence and i dont think rownum will be helpful for generating unique numbers in all cases . how to do this ?
thanks & regards,
kumar.

If two users get the MAX from temp, they would be updating with the same value for two different rows.If TEMP is a genuine temporary table, this is not an issue, because the data in a temporary table is only visible within a session.
The big problem with this approach is the mutating table one: we cannot issue the requisite select statement from a BEFORE INSERT trigger. So this solution is only going to work with a view and an INSTEAD OF INSERT trigger.
Another, more workable, solution is to use a code control table. This can be (should be) another temporary table, with one row holding one column - next value for TEMP.ID. Normally we would rule out such a solution because it serializes access to the inserted table, but as this is only on a per session basis, it doesn't matter.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER tmp_bir BEFORE INSERT ON temp1 FOR EACH ROW
DECLARE
ln NUMBER;
BEGIN
SELECT nvl(code1.next_id,1) INTO ln
FROM code1;
:NEW.id := ln;
UPDATE code1
SET next_id := ln+1;
END;Beware: coded freehand, so may need debugging.

How can I export table row in internet explorer?

I need to export a single table row on a website and I can't figure out how to do it. The source view for the row I need is:
tr class="alt">
<td id="16ZwhxLjCN8fafA8wuYEnMFtGJGrFy6qcE">16ZwhxLjCN8fafA8wuYEnMFtGJGrFy6qcE</td>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td>0.00065227</td>
<td>0.01233629</td>
<td>0.00371003</td>
</tr>I can get the table ID using the code below, but I don't know how to get the rest of the values. The table ID does not change but the numerical values do.$ie = New-Object -com InternetExplorer.Application
$ie.silent = $false
$ie.navigate2("mywebsite.com")
$ie.Document.getElementById("16ZwhxLjCN8fafA8wuYEnMFtGJGrFy6qcE")

Hi Tom,
this may not be quite the perfect solution, but it works for me at least. I'm not using the IE ComObject, but rather the .NET Webclient for it ...
# Load downloader function
function Get-WebContent
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Downloads a file
.DESCRIPTION
Download any file using a valid weblink and either store it locally or return its content
.PARAMETER webLink
The full link to the file (Example: "http://www.example.com/files/examplefile.dat"). Adds "http://" if webLink starts with "www".
.PARAMETER destination
The target where you want to store the file, including the filename (Example: "C:\Example\examplefile.dat"). Folder needs not exist but path must be valid. Optional.
.PARAMETER getContent
Switch that controls whether the function returns the file content.
.EXAMPLE
Get-WebContent -webLink "http://www.technet.com" -destination "C:\Example\technet.html"
This will download the technet website and store it as a html file to the target location
.EXAMPLE
Get-WebContent -webLink "www.technet.com" -getContent
This will download the technet website and return its content (as a string)
#>
Param(
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true,Position="0")]

$WebLink,
[Parameter(Position="1")]
[Alias('to')]

[switch]
$GetContent
# Correct WebLink for typical errors
if ($webLink.StartsWith("www") -or $webLink.StartsWith("WWW")){$webLink = "http://" + $webLink}

try {Set-Content -Path $destination -Value $file -Force}
catch {}
if ($getContent){return $file}
# Download website
$website = Get-WebContent -WebLink "http://www.mywebsite.com" -GetContent
# Cut away everything before the relevant part
$string = $website.SubString($website.IndexOf('<td id="16ZwhxLjCN8fafA8wuYEnMFtGJGrFy6qcE">'))
# Cut away everything after the row
$string = $string.SubString(0,$string.IndexOf('</tr>'))
# Split the string into each individual line
$lines = $string.Split("`n")
# Prepareing result variable
$results = @()
# For each line, cut away the clutter
foreach ($line in $lines)
$temp = $line.SubString(4,($line.length - 10))
# for the first line, the td has an id, which this compensates for
if ($temp -like 'id="16ZwhxLjCN8fafA8wuYEnMFtGJGrFy6qcE">*'){$temp = $temp.SubString(($temp.IndexOf(">") + 1))}
# Add cleaned line to results
$results += $temp
You may need to adapt the string parsing beneath the function, if the text you posted is not literally identical to the way this function returns it. It worked for a string block acquired via copy&paste from your post anyway. :)
I certainly would be more than happy to read a more elegant version, if someone has one to offer.
Cheers,

How to get more table rows to appear on form

I'm looking for a way to have more table rows appear on the actual form. I created a table with one header and one row with the add and delete button option. I like how the purchase order form sample has it setup where in designer it shows one row and then on the form it appears the table has three rows to start with. How do I do that? I looked at the code on the sample and I couldn't find it anywhere. Please help, thanks.

Hi,
The first part is easy to set up. If you select the object and go to the Object > Field palette. There you can click on display pattern and insert a null pattern, like "Name".
When the field doesn't have data, it will display "Name", but as soon as the user clicks in, this will automatically disappear.
The slight glitch is that by default this 'caption in the field' has the same text style as the rawValue, typically Myriad, black 10pt.
To achieve a grey, italic font to the null values, will require a little script.
If you look at page 2 of this example you will see how I have set up the three fields on the right:

How to generate unique filenames??

i need to be able to generate unique files from a servlet..
my initial instinct was to use the seesion id as part of the filename, however as this file will be embedded in the responding html, this is not safe, as the user will only have to look at the html source to view a session id value.
i am now considering to use the date/time of the creation of a session as the unique identifier for the file, however this will not work if two sessions can be created at the same time.
my question thefore is if no two sessions can have the same date and time?
if not.. can anyone give me an idea as how to produce unique filenames?

If you are actually creating a file, why not usethe
java.io.File.createTempFile() method?how does that help with prducing a unique value to use
as the name of a file?
with that method i still need to supply the filename
as one of its arguments!
No you don't. You provide a prefix and suffix and it fills in the middle with something guaranteed to be unique, in the directory you specify. Here is the javadoc:
createTempFile
public static File createTempFile(String prefix,
String suffix,
File directory)
throws IOException
Creates a new empty file in the specified directory, using the given prefix and suffix strings to generate its name. If this method returns successfully then it is guaranteed that:
1. The file denoted by the returned abstract pathname did not exist before this method was invoked, and
2. Neither this method nor any of its variants will return the same abstract pathname again in the current invocation of the virtual machine.
This method provides only part of a temporary-file facility. To arrange for a file created by this method to be deleted automatically, use the deleteOnExit() method.
The prefix argument must be at least three characters long. It is recommended that the prefix be a short, meaningful string such as "hjb" or "mail". The suffix argument may be null, in which case the suffix ".tmp" will be used.
To create the new file, the prefix and the suffix may first be adjusted to fit the limitations of the underlying platform. If the prefix is too long then it will be truncated, but its first three characters will always be preserved. If the suffix is too long then it too will be truncated, but if it begins with a period character ('.') then the period and the first three characters following it will always be preserved. Once these adjustments have been made the name of the new file will be generated by concatenating the prefix, five or more internally-generated characters, and the suffix.
If the directory argument is null then the system-dependent default temporary-file directory will be used. The default temporary-file directory is specified by the system property java.io.tmpdir. On UNIX systems the default value of this property is typically "/tmp" or "/var/tmp"; on Microsoft Windows systems it is typically "c:\\temp". A different value may be given to this system property when the Java virtual machine is invoked, but programmatic changes to this property are not guaranteed to have any effect upon the the temporary directory used by this method.
Parameters:
prefix - The prefix string to be used in generating the file's name; must be at least three characters long
suffix - The suffix string to be used in generating the file's name; may be null, in which case the suffix ".tmp" will be used
directory - The directory in which the file is to be created, or null if the default temporary-file directory is to be used
Returns:
An abstract pathname denoting a newly-created empty file
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - If the prefix argument contains fewer than three characters
IOException - If a file could not be created
SecurityException - If a security manager exists and its SecurityManager.checkWrite(java.lang.String) method does not allow a file to be created

How to access af:table rows in JavaScript

Hi,
I have a requirement to access af:table rows in java script.I tried the same using following code.
getRows returns the correct no of rows from the table, but table.getValue() returns null.
var table = AdfPage.PAGE.findComponentByAbsoluteId('t1');
if (table != null){
alert(table.getRows());
alert(table.getFirst());
alert(table.getValue());
Any pointers on how i can achieve this.

We have a requirement where in,we have to check if the order number is already added to the cart(cart here is a table)
and this validation needs to be done as soon as you enter 10 digits in the input field for order number.
in short,order need to validated if its duplicate order against table at client side(sson as you enter 10 digits in order number)
initially I was trying to implemet this with ServerSide listner as below
Java script on page :
function addDuplicate(evt) {
var source = evt.getSource();
AdfCustomEvent.queue(source, "MyCustomServerEvent",
false);
event.cancel();
Bean method
public void callAddDuplicateSeverEvt(ClientEvent clientEvent) {
ADFContext.getCurrent().getPageFlowScope().put("dupOrderNumFlag", "N");
System.out.println("in handle Add duplicate::"+ ADFContext.getCurrent().getPageFlowScope().get("dupOrderNumFlag"));
input text on page
====
<af:inputText label="" id="it1" value="#{pageFlowScope.dspOrderNum}"
columns="14" autoComplete="off" styleClass="orderveritext"
maximumLength="10" >
<af:clientListener method="validateOrderNumChars" type="keyPress"/>
<af:clientListener method="enableAddButton" type="keyUp"/>
<af:clientListener method="addDuplicate" type=" keyPress "/>
<af:serverListener type="MyCustomServerEvent"
method="#{viewScope.HLKioskBean.callAddDuplicateSeverEvt}"/>
</af:inputText>
Problem with this solution is My application is KIOSK app(touch screen) on every key press in order num input field screen flickers,looks like its trying to do Full page rendering(though i do not have any PPR) in every call to serverListerner.
Please advise.

How to combine 2 table rows into 1

Hi,
I have an interesting situation where I have two table rows which represent the same row but with a different set of attributes, and I want to combine these two rows into one row for display with in my ADF table. Is there a way that I can manipulate my table data to do this before it is rendered within my table?
As an example I have:
Name | Type | Attribute
T1      A        blue
T1      A        red
T2      B        green
Instead of displaying the above I would like to display
Name | Type | Attribute
T1      A      blue, red
T2      B      greenAny help is appreciated,
-Wraith
Edited by: wraith101 on Oct 8, 2012 2:42 PM

Frank,
create a database view that calls a stored function to parse the duplicate values into a comma separate string and then built the ADF BC entity and view on top of this. This issue is not really one that should be fixed on the >model or UI layer. Building entity view is not a good idea, as all views are not update able, and in this scenario it would'nt be.

How can I restore table rows to their original, unsorted order?

I understand that I could've manually created an "Order" column of sequential numbers and then sort by that.
What I'm looking for is an "unsort" that restores rows to the (manual) order they were in before any sorting was applied.
(Or does Numbers '09 permanently replace the pre-sorted order? That'd be a bit ...err ...'80s.) ;-]

Simon Poisson wrote:
Thanks Jerry,
Seems I assumed that sorting in Numbers '09 merely applied a reversible "view", much as its Insert Categories function does.
For a Sheet with hundreds of rows, then, how would I apply the original order from a backup to the current edited, sorted rows?
Or are we meant to manually locate and then drag each and every one of the hundreds of rows back to its original order? (That's about 6 hours or more of the unpleasant manual work that computers are supposed to do for us!)
It's unfortunate that you made a false assumption about the sort feature. Numbers does indeed move the rows about as does every other spreadsheet app I've used.
I wonder if there is anything in your data that you could sort on that would get you close to the original order. If you know how you would move the rows about, could you express that as a rule? If there's nothing in the data that is correlated to the order of the rows, then the order of the rows may not be extremely significant.

How can reference one table row? Thanks!

Hi, everybody:
I want to create table that one column reference another table row, for example:
CREATE TABLE tab1 (...);
CREATE TABLE tab2 (id ..., tmp tab1%ROWTYPE, ...);
but display error message:
ORA-00911: Invalid character
that point the "%".
Thanks very much!

In Oracle, you can use the %TYPE and %ROWTYPE attributes only in PL/SQL code, not in SQL DDL statements.
But you can use them in CREATE TYPE statements.

I strongly second Justin's strong suggestion about re-considering the requirement.
Be aware that for any of the schemes suggested to have a chance of working, all access to the table must be through stored procedures that use a SELECT FOR UPDATE on the counter table. No user in the database can have insert privileges on the document table except the owner. The owner's password should be kept in a locked safe and be unknown to anyone. If for some reason the owner needs access to the database, then remove the password from the safe, do what needs to be done, then get some guy off the street to set a new password, write it down and lock it in the safe again.
If you really need a gap-free number, it needsto be another column, separate from the PK. Use a sequence to generate the pk gaps and all, then create a procedure that runs periodically to update the gap free column. Soemthing like:
SQL> CREATE PROCEDURE fix_gap_free AS
2     l_v NUMBER;
3     TYPE id_tbl IS TABLE OF number INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
4     l_ids id_tbl;
5     l_id2s id_tbl;
6 BEGIN
7     SELECT MAX(NVL(id2,0)) INTO l_v FROM t;
8     SELECT id, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY id)
9     BULK COLLECT INTO l_ids, l_id2s
10     FROM t
11     WHERE id2 IS NULL;
12
13     FORALL i IN 1 .. l_ids.COUNT
14        UPDATE t
15        SET id2 = l_id2s(i) + l_v
16        WHERE id = l_ids(i);
17     COMMIT;
18 END;
19 /
Procedure created.
SQL> SELECT * FROM t;
        ID        ID2
         1
         2
         5
         7So, id2 is going to be the gap-free column.
SQL> exec fix_gap_free;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> SELECT * FROM t;
        ID        ID2
         1          1
         2          2
         5          3
         7          4So first pass is fine. Now lets add a few rows, so the table now looks like:
SQL> SELECT * FROM t;
        ID        ID2
         1          1
         2          2
         5          3
         7          4
         8
         9
        25and generate more gap free number:
SQL> exec fix_gap_free;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> SELECT * FROM t;
        ID        ID2
         1          1
         2          2
         5          3
         7          4
         8          5
         9          6
        25          7If there may be deletions in the table, and you need to maintain the gap free nature, then just skip the WHERE id2 IS NULL predicate.

How to generate unique IDs for a metadata field

Hi,
We have a requirement to generate a unique ID for a metadata field. Does anybody know how this can be achieved? Ideally I would want to have a database sequence and specify the metadata field to get value from this database sequence, similar to how Content ID is generated.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Tim

Look into the Counters table. You should be able to create a component install filter to add in your field to the Counters table.
You could then create some Java code to fetch the next value from the Counters database for your field (and increment the value).
