my question is how is the county id value assigned hidden field to be saved to the database.
secondly the reply states populate list(lstitem,grp_county) my question is which field are you populating here - the display value the country name or the county id to be saved in the database.
most of the notes says you have to create a value twice. one for label and one for value, how is this applicable to be above case.
i have a record group -
SELECT site_abbrev,TO_CHAR(site_code)
FROM sgr_site_list with 2 fields x_site not displayed but receives the site code and save to the database, the other x_site_abbrev displayed and receives site_abbrev but not saved to the database. this is the trigger i have written
declare
site_grp recordgroup := find_group('site_grp');
i_list_item item := find_item('control.x_site_abbrev');
status varchar2(80);
begin
status := populate_group(site_grp);
CLEAR_LIST(i_list_item);
POPULATE_LIST(i_list_item,site_grp);
but i get the form error 40176 cannot create list ...
can someone help please, the whole concepr is a bit confusing
thanks

How to populate multiple list items dynamically?

Hi again,
Did the popup work ?
For the list item , use the built-in add_list_element in a loop. Example : in the pre-form or when-new-form-instance trigger ,
clear_list('block_name.list_item_name');
for rec in (select column1,column2 from t_table order by 1 desc) loop
ADD_LIST_ELEMENT('block_name.list_item_name', 1, rec.column1, rec.column2);
end loop;
See you

How to populate a list box linked to selection in combo box?

Hi All,
I am a beginner in Xcelsius. I am having problem on how to populate a list box based on the selection on my combo box.
I have a combo box and a list box. The combo box value consist of Countries. Values are:
Singapore
Indonesia
Thailand
When I select, for i.e. Indonesia, I want to populate the list box with all the Postal Code of Indonesia. When I select Thailand, i want to do the same.
Can anyone shed some lights on how to achieve this?
My spreadsheet data is as follow
Country         Postal Code
Singapore     680123
Singapore     680124
Singapore     680125
Indonesia     155123
Indonesia     155124
Indonesia     155125
Indonesia     155126
Thailand       333123
Many Thanks,
Harianto

Hi,
I am detailing the complete steps below:
In the combobox select the entire range of Country while seeing the records from the Combobox, Xcelsius will automatically show the unique values in the selection.
After that in the "Data Insertion" section for Combobox select the "Insertion Type" as "Filtered Rows" (please click on the question mark beside this option and it will show how the selection works).
In the source select the postal code, in the destination select the range which will be used as a data source for the list box.
This will resolve the concern. Please remember to select the question mark beside the "Insertion Type" option, it explains the working in specific details.
Best of luck.

How to delete a list-item with Contribute 4

I use Contribute for a lot of my client for years and a few
weeks ago i installed Contribute 4 for the first time for a new
client .We dicovered that it's difficult or impossible to delete a
list-item in a unordered list. Maybe also in other list-types but
we haven't tried this yet. Does anybody know how to delete a
list-item? In Contribute 3 you just had to use the backspace button
but that isn't working anymore.
Thanks for your help.

How to make a list item field with DATE data type?

I have a column with DATE data type. Using forms 6i I want to generate a poplist list item field with this column while the value of the elements in the list to will be day names like SATURDAY,SUNDAY,MONDAY. if we change the data type from date to char, it will work properly but now with DATE data type behind it, it gives the following error message
"FRM-32082: Invalid value for given item type.
List WEEKREST
Item: WEEKREST
Block: EMPRESTS
Form: MODULE3
FRM-30085: Unable to adjust form for output."
Using forms 6i how to make a list item field with DATE data type which can hold day names?

Set your date column as a hidden (non-displayed) field. Create your list item with the varchar2 day names. Create the list item as a non-base-table field that accepts the text values of day names. On that field, create a when-validate-item trigger that translates the text into a real date, which it then uses to set the value of the actual base-table item.

Workflow - how to update multiple list items

Is it possible to update up to 3 list items with the same information using a workflow? My scenario is where a company vehicle (registration number) has up to three drivers assigned to it - Driver Name 1, Driver Name 2 and Driver Name 3. I
have two separate lists - one for vehicles (fleet list) and one for drivers (driver database). In my workflow when an item is created or changed in the fleet list, I would like the current vehicle registration to be updated in all three driver records
in the driver database. I am not sure if I can do this as I am unsure of what my unique look up would be as I need to be able to tie a vehicle registration to a driver name. Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks

How to populate another page item based on cascading select lists?

Oracle 10gXE
APEX 3.2
I've created cascading select lists based on the examples (using Javascript and AJAX) that i've seen on this forum. Thanks for help on that!
Now that I have these LOV's being populated without needing to submit the page, how do I take the value that is presently in each LOV and concatenate them together to populate another page item? I'm trying to build the URL string that will execute an Oracle Report once the user clicks a button.
Previously, when I had multiple Select Lists with a submit, the URL was being put together using an After Submit Computation that would set the value for an item (P26_REPORT_URL) on the page. Notice that a report parameter (i.e. parameter name and Select List value) is only included if the user has provided a value. The page item that holds these values is then referenced by a button for URL redirect. The URL Target for the button currently is: javascript:popupURL('&P26_REPORT_URL.'), but will not work at the moment because P26_REPORT_URL page item is not changing based on what is selected in the LOVs. Since I'm not submitting anything (do I need to?), how do I put together the values needed?
Computation for P26_REPORT_URL:
DECLARE
l_param VARCHAR2(2000);
BEGIN
l_param := '&REPORTS_URL.&report=&P26_RPT_VIEW..rdf&desformat=&P26_DESFORMAT.&destype=cache';
IF REPLACE(:P26_OLO_CODE,'%'||'null%',NULL) IS NOT NULL THEN
l_param := l_param||'&p_olo_code=&P26_OLO_CODE.';
END IF;
IF REPLACE(:P26_BEG_DATE,'%'||'null%',NULL) IS NOT NULL THEN
l_param := l_param||'&p_start_dt=&P26_BEG_DATE.';
END IF;
IF REPLACE(:P26_END_DATE,'%'||'null%',NULL) IS NOT NULL THEN
l_param := l_param||'&p_end_dt=&P26_END_DATE.';
END IF;
IF REPLACE(:P26_ORG_CODE_2,'%'||'null%',NULL) IS NOT NULL THEN
l_param := l_param||'&p_org_code=&P26_ORG_CODE_2.';
END IF;
IF REPLACE(:P26_FLAIR_ORG_2,'%'||'null%',NULL) IS NOT NULL THEN
l_param := l_param||'&p_flair_org_code=&P26_FLAIR_ORG_2.';
END IF;
IF REPLACE(:P26_BUDGET_ENTITY_2,'%'||'null%',NULL) IS NOT NULL THEN
l_param := l_param||'&p_agy_code=&P26_BUDGET_ENTITY_2.';
END IF;
RETURN l_param;
END;

Andy,
This is a great suggestion! After I posted, I started looking at a Javascript solution and figured it's probably what I had to do.
However, now the cascading select list no longer working for some reason after I added the function to concatenate the item values. When I remove the showReport() function the select list works again.
Here is what I have in the HTML Header portion of the page:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function popupURL (url) {
w = open(url,"winLov","resizable=1,width=800,height=600");
if (w.opener == null)
w.opener = self;
w.focus();
function showReport()
var l_param = '&REPORTS_URL.&report=' + $v('P26_RPT_VIEW') + '.rdf&desformat=' + $v('P26_DESFORMAT') + '&destype=cache';
if ($v('P26_OLO_CODE' != '')
   l_param += '&p_olo_code=' + $v('P26_OLO_CODE');
if ($v('P26_ORG_CODE_3' != '')
   l_param += '&p_org_code=' + $v('P26_ORG_CODE_3');
popupURL(l_param);
function get_AJAX_SELECT_XML(pThis,pSelect){
     var l_Return = null;
     var l_Select = $x(pSelect);
     var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$x('pFlowId').value,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=ORG_SELECT_LIST',0);
     get.add('TEMPORARY_ITEM',pThis.value);
     gReturn = get.get('XML');
     if(gReturn && l_Select){
         var l_Count = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option").length;
         l_Select.length = 0;
         for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
             var l_Opt_Xml = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("option");
appendToSelect(l_Select, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'), l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue)
get = null;
function appendToSelect(pSelect, pValue, pContent) {
var l_Opt = document.createElement("option");
l_Opt.value = pValue;
if(document.all){
pSelect.options.add(l_Opt);
l_Opt.innerText = pContent;
}else{
l_Opt.appendChild(document.createTextNode(pContent));
pSelect.appendChild(l_Opt);
</script>

Populate HTML LIST ITEM with a query

Hello,
I've a problem,
I'm building a portlet based on an html form.
In this forms there are several list items,
How can I populate an html list item with a dynamic query based on a db table?

I hope you are looking for something like this
declare
v_ret_string varchar2(32767);
begin
v_ret_string := ' <TABLE BORDER="1" bordercolor="#0000FF" bgcolor="#FFFFF0">
               <TR><TD><TABLE BORDER="0" CELLSPACING="3" CELLPADDING="0">
               <BR>
                    <TR><TD ALIGN=middle><SELECT SIZE="1" NAME="emp_list">
                         <OPTION VALUE="">';
For get_emp_list In (Select ENAME,EMPNO
From SCOTT.EMP
          Order by ENAME) Loop
v_ret_string := v_ret_string || '<OPTION VALUE="'||get_emp_list.EMPNO||'">'||get_emp_list.ENAME;
End Loop;
v_ret_string := '</SELECT></TD></TR><TABLE></TABLE>';
End;
which uses PL/SQL code to generate the html page.

How to populate an application item using ONCHANGE.

Hello Karen,
>> I am trying to populate an application item, TAB_INSTATE using an onchange command.
I believe I answered you in here - Re: once more...4 cascading LOVs, 3rd is hidden 4th no longer works However, for future reference…
You don’t have a direct access to an application item, using JavaScript, because application items don’t render on page. You can, however, using the AJAX framework to do that, using the add() method. The generic code I’m using is the following:
<script type=”text/JavaScript”>
function setSessionValue(pItem, pValue) {
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,html_GetElement('pFlowId').value,null,0);
get.add(pItem, pValue);
get.get();
get = null;
</script>This code can set any page or application item value.

Arie.

How to update selected list items in SharePoint 2010?

Hello All
I have a list containing field named "Category". I want to develope a solution which will take two inputs: Old Category and New Category. The expected result is: all the list items will be fetched which have Old Category input value in
their category field and the field is replaced with the input value New Category.
I have a limitation that I can not use Visual Studio. So I am thinking to create aspx page with content editor webpart. But I am new to all these things. Could you please suggest the development approach for this?
Thanks.

Hello,
I don't think CEWP can help you because you won't be able to find old and new category when there is any change in list. However you can identify the latest modified item from list but how will you identify whether category is old or new. If you have any
other column in list which can tell you that category value has been updated then you can write ECMA or Jquery script to update other items.
If have any column in list then see below jquery code, where you will see how to query the list: (In my case it is Active)
var soapEnv = "<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/'><soapenv:Body><GetListItems xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/soap/'>";
soapEnv += "<listName>Highlights</listName>";
soapEnv += "<query><Query><Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='Active' /><Value Type='Text'>Yes</Value></Eq></Where><OrderBy Override='TRUE'><FieldRef Name='Modified' Ascending='FALSE' /></OrderBy></Query></query>";
soapEnv += "<viewFields><ViewFields><FieldRef Name='Title'/><FieldRef Name='ows_FileLeafRef'/><FieldRef Name='Links'/></ViewFields></viewFields><rowLimit></rowLimit>";
soapEnv += "</GetListItems></soapenv:Body></soapenv:Envelope>";

How we can disable list item in apex.

Hi All,
We are having an issue with list item, i have two list items has "country" and "state". when ever country is selected state is populated.
We have done with select list with redirect option.But the problem when we have huge data it is taking time to load the page and end user has to wait..
Now they are asking me can we do this
It would be nicer to see a more striking visual cue that the user needs to wait until the next field populates before proceeding—maybe disabling the fields until population completes.
(or)
The “Please Wait” does not display on the IE status bar after the 2nd or 3rd field populates.
Note: They are not prefering to go Ajax method to populate the data, since the list will be construct thru xml and returns back to select list as option, during this time while converting to each option value is taking time to construct the results in select list.
Can any one help me in this.
Thanks,
Anoo..

Do you know how the currently listed values got there in the first place? Some sort of custom code or action? Some background information would help. There is obviously a source feeding it from somewhere, but it's impossible for us to tell you exactly

How to make a list item

I have an input item on a canvas that represents a column with only 3 typical values. As a result, i would like to replace the text item in the canvas with a list item so that new values can be easily selected with the mouse without typing.
I have put a list item on the canvas, but i dont know how to actually make it work so that it is linked to the column i want and give the values i want.
Any help would be great.

Ok this was done.
I found that it was much easier than i expected. Basically you need to use the "Elements in List" property to specify the values, making sure that the values are the same as the ones in the database, after removing the text item first because of duplication.
