Thanks in advance for your help
Here is the html code:
<FORM name="drop_list" action="<?php echo $editFormAction; ?>"" method="POST" >
    <input name="emailForm" type="button" id="emailForm" onClick="sendFormEmail()" value="Email">
    <input name="add_patient" type="submit" id="add_patient" onclick=document.drop_list.action='<?php echo $editFormAction; ?>' value="Add Patient">
Here is my javascript code:
function sendFormEmail() //email form
                    document.drop_list.action = "html_form_send.php";
                    document.drop_list.target = "_blank";
document.drop_list.submit();            // Submit the page
                    return true;
and here is the html_form_send.php

Im currently trying to take all the validation out of the mail script and do it in the html page itself.
Bad choice. Client-side form validation isn't secure and it does not work if JavaScript is disabled. A fair number of people turn off JavaScript or use one of the No-Scripts Add-ons in their browsers for perceived security reasons.
Don't forget, spam bots don't use JavaScript either so they will penetrate your forms without missing a beat.
Server-side validation is very reliable. And if your script is built properly, it can stop robot submissions and exploitation of your forms which is very important these days.

How can I view form details in a popup window?

Recently, something called Babylon assist took control of Firefox and I was forced to reset Firefox to get rid of this. As a consequence, I lost the ability to right click on a page and select from a list that allowed me to view form details in a pop-up window. I used this feature frequently in developing database driven applications that have lots of forms. Can anyone please tell me how to restore this lovely feature? I found something that opens a new tab with the form information in a large format that is rather ugly - I really want to get back to the nice little pop-up that displayed the basic form information.

THANK YOU - your clues led me to the correct add-on. It's called 'Links and Forms' and says that it adds back the links and forms tabs that were in the Page Info window of Firefox 2. I have found it to be very handy in debugging forms that I've created.

HOW TO OPEN A FORM developed IN 10Gds REL2

My suggestion would be to try converting the form to XML using <10gHome>\bin\frmf2xml.bat, and altering this XML to look like R1 XML. Simply changing the Module version might do the trick, but probably not.
To see the difference between 10gR1 and 10gR2 XML formats, take a reasonably complex R1 form and convert it to XML. Next, upgrade that same form to R2 and convert it to XML. Compare the two XML files.
Applying the knowledge gained from this comparison, modify the XML from your original R2 form. Try converting back to FMB using <10gHome>\bin\frmxml2f.bat Please share your findings with the forum!
Hope this helps,

PS: It is assumed that you have access to both 10gR1 and R2 installations!

How to open a form multiple times

pl tell me how to open a form multiple times

HI Sagar,
Before adding the form to SBO
try to get the existing count of the form
as shown below
For int = 0 To objApplication.Forms.Count - 1
If objApplication.Forms.Item(int).TypeEx = FormType Then FormTypeCount += 1
Next
THEN append that with your form type as shown below
objFormCreationParams.FormType=FormType & "_" & FormTypeCount.ToString
Then add the form to SBO
SO every time your form is opened the unique id will like URFORMTYPE_1,URFORMTYPE_2 and so on

How to install oracle Forms and Report 10g in windows XP OS

How to install oracle Forms and Report 10g in windows XP OS. Already installed oracle Database 10g in my notebook.
It is working good.
please help me this issue.
please give the steps..............
Thanks
Rajeev

Hello Frank,
for development, you need to install Oracle Developer
Suite 10g. This includes Forms and Reports.this topic interests me too, because I've downloaded Developer Suite and Database (both for 10g) from Oracle website, installed them, but I couldn't connect to a database.
What should be done for me to create a database link and be able to connect locally, in my personal Desktop computer? (Not to a server)
Once it was told me here that I should download 10g Database - I did it, and installed it, but it didn't work. Later, some of my job partners said I should install them in a sequence - that is, 1st the Developer, and 2nd the Database. But it has failed too. And I don't know how to configure a database connection.
Best regards,

How to open a playlist in it's own window

Does Anyone know how to open a playlist in it's own window? At one time in past versions of itunes you used to be able to do this.

No. They removed that functionality as an improvement to iTunes in version 11. I saw one person mentioning making a screen grab of the window and displaying it as an image in Preview while looking at the actual iTunes in another window, but it doesn't quite strike me as being the same...

How to open a form based on the the parameter in another Form

I created a button in a form (FORM1). By clicking this button, I want to open another form (FORM2) based on the a value of one key field in this form(FORM1). Both forms have the same key field.
So, I wrote the following codes behind the PL/SQL Button Event Handler of the custom event for the button that I created in FORM1.
v_inventory_num:=p_session.get_value_as_NUMBER(
p_block_name => "_master_block",
p_attribute_name => 'A_INVENTORY_NUM',
p_index => 1
if v_inventory_num is not null then
portal30.wwa_app_module.set_target('/pls/portal30/PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=5958032800&p_arg_names=_show_header&p_arg_values=YES&p_arg_names=A_INVENTORY_NUM&p_arg_values='||v_inventory_num,'CALL');
end if;
end;
I could not open the FORM2 by clicking the button on FORM1.
However,I can open the FORM2 by click the button by using the following code.
portal30.wwa_app_module.set_target('/pls/portal30/PORTAL30.wwa_app_module.new_instance?p_moduleid=5958032800','CALL');
How could I pass the parameter in FORM1 into FORM2 and when the FORM2 is opened if has already been queried with the passed parameter?
Your help would be highly appreciated!

Hi:
Thank you for reply to my question.
I have tried your codes and apply them the following the form. However, I always got the following error:
Error: (WWV-00000)
No conversion performed for type INTEGER, value . (WWC-49102)
No conversion performed for type INTEGER, value . (WWC-49102)
No conversion performed for type INTEGER, value . (WWC-49102)
No conversion performed for type INTEGER, value . (WWC-49102)
My codes is:
declare
request_no number;
blk varchar2(30) := 'DEFAULT';
l_url varchar2(4000);
begin
request_no := p_session.get_value_as_NuMBER(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_WORK_REQUEST_ID');
l_url := 'portal30.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=11880470335&p_arg_names=_sessionid&p_arg_values=&p_arg_names=work_request_id&p_arg_values='||request_no;
portal30.wwa_app_module.set_target(l_url,'call');
end;
then,
I created another form which has two fields and the dattype of pk is varchar2 and change manually put the pk's p_arg_value into the url.
e.g.
l_url:='PORTAL30.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=9029417810&p_arg_names=WORK_AREA_CD&p_arg_values=APP';
portal30.wwa_app_module.set_target(l_url,'call');
However, I still get the error message as below:
Error: (WWV-00000)
No conversion performed for type INTEGER, value . (WWC-49102)
No conversion performed for type INTEGER, value . (WWC-49102)

How to open new form with set value

I have two forms CLIENT and ORDERS who are connected by "client_id" in a one to many relationship [one client can have many orders]. What code to I put in the button so that that when I click on it from the CLIENT table, it goes to the ORDERS form with just the orders that match that "client_id"? The application is in oracle 9i developer using swing.
Here's what I have so far, code to open the form without the binding
//Open Order Form
FormIcdClientApplicationView frameTarget = new FormOrderApplicationView(getPanelBinding());
frameTarget.setVisible(true);
// Close this window
this.setVisible(false);

How to open a form and close another one

hi,
I wish to open a form from another, and then close the calling form. In other words, having FORM1 and FORM2, FORM1 should do this:
OPEN_FORM ('FORM2',ACTIVATE,SESSION);
EXIT_FORM(NO_COMMIT,NO_VALIDATE);
but I cant get this to work. As FORM1 is modal, it opens FORM2 but its still open. Changing the order of the two statements only cause FORM1 to be closed. Can I perform the two operations from within FORM1, avoiding to put the EXIT_FORM statement in FORM2?
thank you

Hello,
Use NEW_FORM to replace the calling module.

How to open a form of an already opened Access project from another application?

Dear forum members,
I have this problem: I have multiple modules in both Excel and Outlook that open Access forms. Therefore is use simple codes like these:
Sub Regelopenen()
ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink "\\SERVER\Documenten\JBO\" & Environ("computername") & "\Orderstroom.accdb"
Set oApp = GetObject(, "Access.Application")
    oApp.DoCmd.OpenForm "OrderOverzicht", , , "ID = " & Range("AM" & Selection.Row)
    oApp.Forms![orderoverzicht].Tabs.Value = 2
    oApp.DoCmd.Requery
End Sub
Most times the "Orderstroom.accdb" front-end will be running but when it's not I want the code to open it. For that manner I use the FollowHyperlink method (that simply opens the front-end if it's closed and brings it to the foreground) in
combination with GetObject (that just sets the object).
Now, this works like a charm, except for when another front-end was opened
before Orderstroom.accdb! In that case, the code tries to open the wished form in the front-end that was opened first.
I know that the form would open in the correct front-end when I add the front-end's path to the GetObject method, however this is no solutions because it will
always open that front-end, even when it is already opened.
I've searched for hours the past weeks. Unfortunetaly I can't seem to find a work-around for this problem! Can anyone help me, please? :(
I'm desperately looking forward for you answers!

Is this so impossible?
