How to go to a certain page based on user's selection from a select list

On the very first page of my application, I have one item - a select list. Based on what they select from the list, how do I go to the corresponding page? For instance, if the user selects 'Metal', how do I go to the Metal page?

Hello,
Assuming the answer to Sergio is "yes"
First, you should make sure that the returned value from your select list is the corresponding page number or page alias for the user selection. Using your terms "Metal" should return the page number/alias of the page where you want to implement "Metal".
Then, on your first page, you can define a "Branch to Page Identify by Item". The parameter should be your select item name.

Arie.

Redirect to different pages based on user input value

Hello,
Anyone please help.
I am trying to redirect to different pages based on user inputs. I have a form in which I have one text item and a submit button. For example consider text item to be empno; So once the user enters a empno and hits submit button; I need to redirect to different pages based on this job.
For Ex: if user inputs empno whose job is 'ANALYST' then redirect to page 1
if user inputs empno whose job is 'MANAGER' then redirect to page 10
For this scenario. i wrote a pl/sql process for the submit button; but no luck -- its not at all redirecting instead its in the same page. Below is the process.
declare
v_job varchar2(20);
begin
select job into v_job from emp where empno = :P9_EMPNO_R;
if v_job = 'ANALYST' then
OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL('f?p=&APP_ID.:1:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::', TRUE);
end if;
if v_job = 'MANAGER' then
OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL('f?p=&APP_ID.:10:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::', TRUE);
end if;
end;Please help. I am using Oracle APEX version 4.2 and database Oracle 11g R2

Thanks,
OrtonI have a similar scenario in my application and this is how I handle it.
1. Create a page item on the page, say Px_PAGE_NUM
2. Create a "On Submit - After Computations and Validations" page process to set the above page item. In your case, you can use the same logic that you have already in place (except the call to OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL) :
declare
v_job varchar2(20);
begin
select job into v_job from emp where empno = :P9_EMPNO_R;
if v_job = 'ANALYST' then
:Px_PAGE_NUM := '1';
end if;
if v_job = 'MANAGER' then
:Px_PAGE_NUM := '10';
end if;
end;3. Create a "On Submit: After processing" branch. Specify the "Target Type" as "Page in the application" and "Page Number" as &Px_PAGE_NUM. (with the dot).
I hope the above helps.
BTW, the following thread in the forum related to OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL might help:

Hello,
Lots of different ways to do this, I blogged about one way (using a Pipelined function) here -
http://jes.blogs.shellprompt.net/2006/05/25/generic-charting-in-application-express/
Other options include using a PL/SQL function returning the string to use as the dynamic query etc.
Hope this helps,

How to update records in a table based on user selection..

Hi all,
This time the above doubt is totally based on the logic of coding which I tried a lot but didn't get any solution. so atlast I come to sdn site.
please help..
The requirement is like that I have a table with 6 fields (1 primary key and other are nonkeys). If the user inputs some values in the fields on the screen, then a row will be added in the table. Upto this i have done well. but when the user want to change some value in the existing row of the table my program unable to do so. Because I couldn't get any logic to do that as there are 5 nonkey fields, so if any one field is modified then the respective row should be selected first based on the user selection and then it should be updated.
At this point I could not get any idea as it may take a lots of if conditions (I guess) to reach to that particular row.
Please help..
thanks ,
sekhar

Hi Sekhar,
I am afraid, the whole design of your program is wrong, let me explain
Let us say you have two rows(5 non key fields) that the user wants to update and the data in these five non key fields are identical and in your program you are getting a number(which is the key) using a number range object. So you will have two entries in the table for the same data.
And on the update page when the user enters the non key fields, how will the program know(or for that matter any one of us) which record to pick, if you have two identical books and if asked for a book wouldn't you ask which one among these two do you want?
Possible Solution: Identify a possible key maintaining the integrity of the data, that is a combination of the non key fields which will help you identify a unique row and make these fields as key fields in the table.
A more costly solution(if you do not want to change the non key field keys to key fields) would be to, adding a check(using select statement) to see if the non key fields combination already exists in the Z table before inserting a record into the table.
If yes, throw a message to the user and just update the values in the table, else insert the record.
Another solution would be to, use the non key fields to generate a key(using some logic) and using this instead of the number range object.

Chen

How to Generate a Report Based on User's Parameters from Web Site

Hi, all,
I am trying to use Oracle Developer 6.0 Report Builder to generate report based on what user types in from the web site. Since I am a novice, I am wondering if anybody would help me with the following questions:
1. How can I create a report based on user's parameters?
Assuming that I have 2 text fields EMPNO and DEPT on the web site, after user types in some value, how can I pass these parameters into my query, can I do something like:
select ENAME, JOB, EADDRESS from EMP
where EMPNO =
some_reference_of_parameters_from_user
or is there any other way to achieve this functionality?
2. How can I pass a PDF format report back to user after the report is generated?
Any help is greately appreciated!!
Best regards.
Judy

Hello,
In the Report Builder, create two user parameters, and set the parameter name, datatype, width, and default values to what you want. Modify the query and put in a where clause (e.g., where deptno = :p_deptno). When you request the report with PARAMFORM=YES on the URL, it'll generate a default parameter form in HTML and allow the user to enter in the selected parameter values. Also set DESTYPE=CACHE&DESFORMAT=PDF on the URL to get the output back as PDF.
If you upgrade to Reports 6i, you can customize the default HTML parameter form.

How to configure the schema name dynamically based on user input.

configure the schema name dynamically based on user input.
For ex:
We have two schemas:
Schema1 - base schema having 15 tables.
Schema2 - tables which is specific to modules. Having only 10 tables which is also available in Schema1
Login to application using Schema 1
Access a particlular module and select the country. Here country selection is identified.
Based on the country selection, we need to connect the schema respectively.
If the user selects France --> It should connect Schema1
If the user selects Germeny --> It should connect schema2.
Used: Eclipselink

You may want to have a different persistence unit for each country, then you just need to switch persistence units, and can put the schema in your orm.xml file.
You may also want to investigate EclipseLink multi-tenant support,
http://www.eclipse.org/eclipselink/documentation/2.5/jpa/extensions/a_multitenant.htm
You can the schema in a persistence unit in code using a SessionCustomizer and the tableQualifier.

How can you create a customized page to change user password?

Hello to all,
I would like to create a customized page for a user to change their password. We are using Portal version 3.0.9 on Windows NT/2000. Currently there is a page in portal where a user can change their password.
I tried linking to that page by copying the shortcut url and adding it as an html portlet. The problem is that we want to direct the users to a
page of our choosing when they click on the "cancel" and "ok" buttons. I read in the forums that there is a selfreg.cmd script.
I also read that there is some code that has been available.
Has anyone implemented a customized user password change page? Do you know of any links that might have steps to follow or
more informatioin?
Thanks in advance,
Lindsay

How to highlight a row in IR based on User Name

Hi,
What is the best way to highlight a row in a IR, based on User Name. ie APP_USER.
Suppose if a APP_USER log in to the application, the row in the IR corresponding to the APP_USER should alone be highlighted.
(Edit button is not visible in the IR)

Hi,
APP_USER value is uppercase. Your name column values are lowercase.
Example code that I did post string comparison is case sensitive.
I did change your example dynamic action JavaScript to convert cell value to upper case
this.affectedElements.find('table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td[headers="NAME"]').each(function(i){
    var lThis=$(this);
    if(lThis.text().toUpperCase()=="&APP_USER."){
        lThis.parent().children().css({"background-color":"#55A955"});
});Now it should work

How can i do this ?
Thanks
Edited by: Vedant on Apr 25, 2012 11:14 PM

Short answer, use the apex_util.string_to_table to convert to a table; then you can either iterate through the table to generate a string of names, or accomplish the same with a bulk operation.

How can I select from drop-down list and jumping to selected subform?

I using LC Designer ES2 vers 9. Developing XDP. How can I Select from a drop-down list the appropriate selected subform (jumping to the selected subform on the page)?
drop-down list...A (jump to subform1)
                         B (jump to subform2)
                         C (jump to subform3)
subform1
subform2
subform3
....end of form

Hi,
you cannot set focus on a subform but on a field, as only interactive objects can be focussed.
From a dropdowns exit event the script will look this way:
switch (this.rawValue) {
          case "A" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;
          case "B" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;

How to disable an out of the box disable User process task from resource?

How should I disable the out of the box disable User process task that is assigned to a particular resource? If I disable this disable User process task, when the user is provisioned to the same resource will I be able to stop this disable User process from running?
My requirement: I need to disable the disable user process task from three resources x, y and z. Whenever a user is provisioned to one of these resources I should stop this disable user process task an out of the box process task from running. How can this be accomplished?? Please help me out on how to configureto remove the process task in the OIM Admin console to stop the process task.

You can avoid the disable task from triggering by removing the Disable Process Or Access to Application from the task effect drop down in the process task. But this task is triggered once the user is disabled. But still I didn't understand the exact scenario.
By the way the disable task is triggered when the user gets disabled and not when the user is provisioned.

How to print new main report page based on number of records in subreport?

Hi,
I've a main report which prints on a pre-printed stationary with 2 subreports in the detail section. The subreport prints multiple records. If there are more than 6 records in the subreports, a new page should be printed with all the contents of the main report and the subreports should continue with the remaining records. How can I do this? I've tried incrementing a shared variable counter in the subreport and accessed that variable in the detail section of the main report to check the counter and reset the counter to 0 if it exceeds 6. But this does not work. All the lines till it can hit page footer are printing on first page and the second page prints only the remaining subreport lines without the other details of the main report page.
The main report page uses a view which returns only 1 record. The subreport returns multiple records.
I would certainly appreciate if any one can provide a solution for this problem.
Thanks,
Ram

hi Ram,
sorry, i misunderstood exactly what you wanted.
let me get this straight...
1) if there's more than 6 records in the subreport then show only the first 6 records
2) then (if there's more than 6 records) do a new page after the subreport
3) then (if there's more than 6 records) show the subreport's remaining records and the rest of the report
let know if i've got it straight.
if that is correct, you will have received another sample report that does this. in total 3 subreports are used...one is a dummy report that adds up the number of records which is used later. there's more info on the report's design mode.
cheers,
jamie

How can I conditionally present different pages based upon a promo code?

I am sending out a general mailing to a list of potential clients. I have broken this group into five unique subsets, and each mailing will include a specific (one of five) promo codes. When a user comes to my website, I want to allow then to enter the promo code, and then I will display one of five specific pages that is tailored to their needs. If anything else is entered into the field, a general error page will be displayed. I am using Dreamweaver CS4 and I have created several websites. I have experience using forms. I am assuming that I will need to utilize dynamic pages to accomplish this; if there is an easier way, please let me know. Given that there isn't an easier way, can someone please tell me how to (or where I can find) create and utilize dynamic pages? Omar

Hi Omar,
On a side note, should I close this question and move it to the Development forum? Being new to utilization of forums, I'm not quite certain of the etiquette.
It´s certainly not a matter of "etiquette" ;-) I think you´re right, because posting your question in the regular Dreamweaver Application Development forum instead will have one huge advantage :: over there you´ll address a huge number of fellow developers and hence get help and different suggestions much quicker, whereas in this forum (which is about a former Dreamweaver application development extension which has been discontinued in April 2009) I have regretfully become the only one who still answers stuff.
Cheers,
Günter
