How to open an pdf report On click of some command button in adf

Hi,
I have to generate some pdf report or some pdf document on click of some command button .Could any one please tell me how to achieve this.
suggestion would be appreciated,
Regards
Vinay kumar

So what you're saying is the PDF already exists on your web server, and all you want to do is navigate in the browser from your ADF application to the PDF, yes? If that's correct, let's assume you're PDF exists at:
http://www.acme.com/someCustomPath/myFantasticReport.pdf
Consider the <af:goButton> or <af:goLink> controls, which include the destination attribute. As such you'd do something like this:
<af:goButton destination="http://www.acme.com/someCustomPath/myFantasticReport.pdf"/>As you can see the "go" controls are for navigating to resources not inside your ADF application, while the "command" controls are reserved for navigation among resources in your application.
In order to generate the destination URL, just replace the destination attribute with an EL expression that retrieves it's value from a backing bean:
<af:goButton destination="#{myBean.giveMeTheUrl}"/>Regards,
CM.

Open a new window while clicking on the command button

Hi,
Can I open a pdf report in a new window when adf command button is clicked?
I am using jdev11g
Thanks

Hi John,
I found the goButton's destination expression do not read value from any controls e.g.: Input Text.
Is there anyway to read some value, that input by user not in the db, on the screen?
e.g.: I have a Input Text for user to input a date to print the report. I've tried to binding the control in backingBean, but I get a null value from the goButton's destination function.
the jspx:
<af:inputText label="Search" id="it1"
                        value="#{backingBeanScope.backing_goUrl.it1Value}" autoSubmit="true"/>
<af:goButton text="goButton 1" id="gb1" targetFrame="_blank"
                       destination="#{backingBeanScope.backing_goUrl.searchURL}"/>in the backing bean:
public class GoUrl {
private String it1Value;
public String getIt1Value() {
    return it1Value;
public void setIt1Value(String it1Value) {
    this.it1Value = it1Value;
public String getSearchURL() {
    String s = getIt1Value();
    return "http://www.google.com/search?hl=zh-tw&q="+s; // the result of s is always null.

Open PDF report on clicking a URL link

Hello,
I have a requirement to open a PDF report when clicking on a URL.
Example : Open a Purchase Order PDF report when clicked on a URL from a different web based system (non APEX). I was able to open APEX pages from the web pages but i am not sure how to open a PDF report. I will have to pass PO number in the URL.
I would really appreciate it If anyone can give me some direction. I have created PDF reports within APEX and called from within other Pages in APEX but not outside of APEX.

Sorry I really didn't mean to be stupid ;)
below is my requirement. We use oracle ebs and we use forms version. Our requirement is to open various PDF reports by clicking a buttons/menu in different forms with in Oracle apps forms. We have APEX developer who can create PDF reports in APEX easily but the technology on ebs side is complex to develop simple PDF in the way users want. So we were thinking if we create a PDF report in APEX..and call the apex report from ebs. Is this possible? Inow we can call other APEX web pages from EBS.

Open a PDF report from a PDF report

I would like to open a PDF report from a PDF report, but in a new IE window.
I have the following code attached to an item in the report:-
function F_RECONFormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
IF trim(:btch_ref) = 'PL' and trim(:recon) is not null and trim(:recon) <> ' ' then
srw.set_font_weight(srw.bold_weight);
srw.set_font_style(srw.underline_style);
srw.set_text_color('blue');
srw.set_hyperlink_attrs('onMouseover "window.status="Click here to see what is in your shopping basket"; return true"'||'onMouseout ="window.status=" "; return true"');
srw.set_hyperlink('/reports/rwservlet?cmdkey=famis+desformat=pdf+report=FAMREP011+p_orderno='||trim(:recon));
srw.set_hyperlink_attrs('target=_blank');
-- srw.set_hyperlink_attrs('target="_blank"');
END IF;
return (TRUE);
end;
All of the commands work except for the 2 srw.set_hyperlink_attrs commands. The "onMouseover" and the "target" seem to have no effect. Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
Michael

The built in srw.set_hyperlink_attrs does not work , if the report format is PDF. There is no way to open another PDF report from a PDF report in a seperate window. Also think there is no way to hide URL which apperars when the mouse pointer moves over the hyperlink.
In other report formats like HTML, the built in srw.set_hyperlink_attrs works.

it will probably cost you money upfront before you make any revenue.

How do I not display the preview pane in mail until I open it with a double click? Some mail I do not wish to open-just delete it. New macbook pro with LION OS

Just drag the divider line between the preview pane and the message list all the way to the edge so the preview is completely closed. Selected messages will open in a new window with a double-click or the return key.

How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images

I am new to Indesign Server.
I'm currently working on a pdf.
I have a white blank pdf template.
that I want to attach/glue it with images.
How to open a pdf file and then attach it with images.
Please, help me.
Thanks.

First step would be to make yourself familiar with InDesign desktop version.
Whatever you intend to achieve, do it there manually. (see regular app docs or forums)
Then try to automate your steps with scripting (see scripting docs or forum)
If you can do it with a script in the desktop version, that script will likely also run in ID Server. (see server forum).
If you can specify missing features not achievable thru scripting or manual use, reconsider to write a plugin (this forum).
A seasoned C++ programmer will need a few months to learn the basics, wade thru tons of documentation etc. Alternatively consider to hire a consultant to do the development work for you.
