HTML HEADER - SIZE

Is there a limit on javascript you can put in html header?
This is what I am doing. I write code in textpad and then copy into html header (for alignment... that way its easy to debug). I added some code and try to save but its not allowing me to save. And then I subtracted.. added code.. (many times) and in present scene i came up with this question.
I dont really think that could be the case.. but just wanted to make sure before I start touching other pieces of application and settings.

Hello,
Ok there is no javascript issue.
Your window is opening to http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=&APP_ID.:2:::::MYNAME: . notice the &APP_ID.
Your substitution tag &APP_ID. will not substitute in a js file. Only if it's in the page so what you are going to want to do is provide the url as a parameter in your onclick on the page like this.
onclick="openpage('http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=&APP_ID.:2:::::MYNAME:')"
So that that proper substitutions are happening.
This was pretty easy to figure out on the popup page all I had to do was right click on the page and look at the page location. It's one of the first things you should do when you go to a broken page as many times as in this case the url was just wrong.

HTML Header - Size Limit

Forum
Is there a limit to the size of the text that can be entered on a page's HTML Header Section ?
We are seeing an application page fail when we add more lines to the section .... ( yes - they are valid syntax :-)). When we remove these lines - the page works again.
Also if we add two lines , and then remove the 2 comment lines higher in the section , the page seems to work.
Strange ...
P.

<body onLoad="javascript:f_comm()";>1. In the XHTML normally used in APEX 4.0 mark-up, all XHTML, including attribute/event handler names, must be in lower case: <tt>onclick</tt>, <tt>onfocus</tt>, <tt>onload</tt>...
2. The "javascript:" pseudo-protocol is evil. There are a few places in APEX where we may have to resort to using it as a URL is all we're offered to work with, but it's always better to use an event handler of some kind, either inline or (better) registered dynamically at runtime following the principles of unobtrusive JavaScript. It absolutely should not be used in inline event handlers.
3. Semicolons (";") are part of the JavaScript language, not XHTML, and so go within the quotes as part of the JS code.
So:
<body onload="f_comm();">

Is there a limit to amount of code that can be added to the HTML Header?

I've got several javascript functions in the HTML Header section of the page attributes. I recently added another function and now receive an HTTP 404 Not Found error at runtime when navigating to the page. When I remove the function the error is gone. I don't think there is anything wrong with the function because even when I copy and rename an existing working function, this error occurs...as if I've exceeded some size limit. Any ideas?

I now have a better understanding after reading this thread: Javascript as static file or on filesystem?
As the post indicates, there are essentially two ways of including a .js file:
1) upload as static file to the workspace or application and refer to it using the #APP_IMAGES# or #WORKSPACE_IMAGES# tag.
2) put it on the webserver as a file on the filesystem under the images directory and refer to it using the #IMAGE_PREFIX# tag.
For now (since I don't have permissions to the file server directory) I have created a .js file and uploaded it as a static file in Shared Components. I referenced the file as below, but when I go the page at runtime, none of my functions are being utilized. Is it because the web server is not using this static file yet because of caching? Does it need to be restarted in order to start using the uploaded js file?
<script type="text/javascript" src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#apex_selection_criteria_page.js">
</script>

Limit to HTML Header text in APEX Page

I have an APEX page that has a fairly large amount of javascript in the HTML header. After I added some more, the page blows up. Is there a limit to how much you can add. It doesn't look like Page 0 has the limitation. Is there one one on either?
What is the best way around this? Adding the individual page javascript to Page 0 or creating a .js that gets included on that page only.
Thanks!

Large page sizes will DESTROY your perceived performance. High performance apps go way out of their way to improve page load times by:
- Minifying or compressing javasript
- Making sure it is cache-able
- Loading the minimum amount of javascript you need for the page to function, then "lazy loading" (background loading) the rest
- Lazy loading all of the JavaScript files you need for the app on the login page or first page to cache them
- Using gzip compression in the app server
- Using a Content Delivery Network (CDN)
- Reducing HTML size using CSS and other techniques
- Reducing the number of network requests for images using CSS sprites. (more info here: http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2009/04/27/the-mystery-of-css-sprites-techniques-tools-and-tutorials/ )
Storing JavaScript in the head of the page flies in the face of almost everyone of those concepts. Have a look at this if you have time:

DW Uploads HTML Header only ??

I have been using Dreamweaver MX2004 for a few years to
maintain a school web site. It has always performed well but
recently I find that when I upload an HTML and check it on the web
site, I find that the file only contains the HTML header
information!
In order to test this I have produced a new, very basic HTML
file in DW with only a single item of text in it, but this still
appears on the web site as just the html header information.
However, I can upload files using a basic FTP program
(coffeecup) with no problems.
Please help
Dave

Sure looks like they are set up the same.
In DW, create a file with a nonsense name, and upload it.
Then look at the
files found in the /web/ folder. Do you see this nonsense
named file there?

HTML HEADER (Image + text)

Hi.
I am writing a small code in html header which goes like this
<table1 border="1" >
<tr1>
<td1 width = "25%">
<img1 border="0" src1="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#image.gif" width="182"
height="46">
</td1>
<td1 width="65%" ><p align="center"><font1 size="6"
color="#FFFFFF">XXXXX</font>
</td1>
</tr1>
</table1>
Problem : I cant control the font size.
Hint : I think image_cell is not allowing text in text_cell to grow (may be bcos of image size).
I tried diff options.. but couldnt figure it out.
Any help is higly appreciated.

hi again,
yes, I could let the servlet call the web service but then I need to parse the request in order to get the SOAP message and then build th new request, then I need to get the reply and transform it and return it to the caller... seems a lot of work.
What I am trying to do is a sort of primitive ESB, all calls to services have to go via the servlet, that will be logging information like caller, method, parameters etc and then forward the request to the right service.
Maybe ther is a better way but I can't think of one...
Thanks,
A.

Page Attribute HTML Header on Page 0

Why is there no HTML Header section on Page 0? Seems that this would be an ideal place to define my page stlye to apply to all pages. I'm trying to increase the font-size to 14 for all my pages. Instead of doing it on each page, I thought it would more efficient to do it on Page 0, but I don't see an HTML Header section. Perhaps there's an easier way that I'm missing?

Hi -
You could add another css, but the cheap way is to download the existing css, find the class or classes that include the font size you'd like to bump up, and edit the css to change them. Then upload the changed css back up to your app.
BTW a web development tool like the free Web Developer extension for Firefox (there are others) can be invaluable for identifying how css is styling a given object on your web page.
Good luck.

Pass a value from a PL/SQL function to a javascript (html header) ? ?

Hey Guys,
Have a question regarding how to pass a value from a PL/SQL function to a javascript in the HTML Header.
I have created a PL/SQL function in my database, which does looping.
The reason for this is: On my apex page when the user selects a code, it should display(or highlight buttons) the different project id's present for that particular code.
example= code 1
has project id's = 5, 6, 7
code 2
has project id's = 7,8
Thank you for your Help or Suggestions
Jesh
The PL/SQL function :
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION contact_details(ACT_CODE1 IN NUMBER) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
Project_codes varchar2(10);
CURSOR contact_cur IS
SELECT ACT_CODE,PROJECT_ID
FROM ACTASQ.ASQ_CONTACT where ACT_CODE = ACT_CODE1;
currec contact_cur%rowtype;
NAME: contact_details
PURPOSE:
REVISIONS:
Ver Date Author Description
1.0 6/25/2009 1. Created this function.
BEGIN
FOR currec in contact_cur LOOP
dbms_output.put_line(currec.PROJECT_ID || '|');
Project_codes := currec.PROJECT_ID|| '|' ||Project_codes;
END LOOP;
RETURN Project_codes;
EXCEPTION
WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
NULL;
WHEN OTHERS THEN
-- Consider logging the error and then re-raise
RAISE;
END contact_details;
/

Jesh:
I have made the following modifications to your app to get it to work as I thing you need it to.
1) Changed the source for the HTML Buttons Region(note use of id vs name for the Buttons)
<script>
function hilitebtn(val) {
//gray buttons
$x('graduate').style.backgroundColor='gray'
$x('distance').style.backgroundColor='gray'
$x('career').style.backgroundColor='gray'
$x('photo').style.backgroundColor='gray'
//AJAX call to get project-ids
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$x('pFlowId').value,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=GETPROJECTS',0);
get.addParam('x01',val)
gReturn = get.get();
var arr=gReturn.split(':'); //dump into array
get = null;
for (i=0;i<arr.length;i++) {
// alert('val=' + arr);
if ( arr[i]==5)
$x('graduate').style.backgroundColor='red';
if ( arr[i]==6)
$x('distance').style.backgroundColor='red';
if ( arr[i]==7)
$x('career').style.backgroundColor='red';
if ( arr[i]==8)
$x('photo').style.backgroundColor='red';
</script>
<table cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' border='0'>
<tr><td>
<input type='button' id='graduate' value='Graduate'>
</td>
<td>
<input type='button' id='distance' value='Distance'>
</td>
<td>
<input type='button' id='career' value='Career/Tech'>
</td>
<td>
<input type='button' id='photo' value='Photos'>
</td>
</tr></table>
2) Defined the application process GETPROJECTS as DECLARE
IDS varchar2(1000);
l_act_code varchar2(100) :=4;
begin
IDS:='';
l_act_code := wwv_flow.g_x01;
for x in(
SELECT ACT_CODE,PROJECT_ID
FROM ASQ_CONTACT
where ACT_CODE = l_act_code)
LOOP
IDS := IDS || X.PROJECT_ID|| ':' ;
END LOOP;
HTP.PRN(IDS);
END;
3) Changed the 'onchange' event-handler on p1_act_code to be 'onchange=hilitebtn(this.value)'
4) Added the JS to the HTML Page Footer <script>
hilitebtn($v('P1_ACT_CODE'));
</SCRIPT>

Page failure when attempting to save java script in html header

Currently there is java script code for a function that is seeded in the html header of a forms page by apex when the form is generated. This code is for the chicken test for the DELETE button.
The function works as designed, but if I try to "APPLY CHANGES" to the the page definition I get the The page cannot be displayed "Cannot find server or DNS Error". "the url is http://nldg-3.appl.devjones.com:7777/pls/apex/wwv_flow.accept" If I remove the script coding from the HTML header the page will save just fine, but of course no more java script.
I need to add a java script function to the page and I am unable to do so at this time because of this issue. I can reproduce this error on any of the sample apps that I have loaded into apex.
the Apache error log contains:
[Fri Feb 13 06:11:06 2009] [error] [client 172.16.85.122] [ecid: 1234527066:192.168.211.127:31922:0:17188,0] mod_plsql: /pls/apex/wwv_flow.accept HTTP-500 Error Reading Data from Client!!
The Apache access gets:
172.16.85.122 - APEX_PUBLIC_USER [13/Feb/2009:06:23:47 -0600] "POST /pls/apex/wwv_flow.accept HTTP/1.1" 500 653
Apex is version 3.1.2.00.02 and uses on iAS on a Linux server. The Database is 10g. The browser is IE 6.0.2900.2180.
I have been developing for about 3 months in Apex and this is the first issue of this kind that I have run into. Any help will be greatly appreciated as I have no clue at this time.

Luis,
All the forms are created by Apex with a default function in the html header for a delete chicken test as follows:
<scrpt language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

Even though the function is already a part of the page, if I try to save it, it will fail. I will look into the "black list" a little deeper. I have asked around abit as I also had suspected that, but so far all the answers were that it should not be a problem. If I take out the "SCRIPT" word I can get the page to save, but of course the code is worthless at that point.

How can I submit the page from javascript in html header?

I followed
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/htmldb/howtos/htmldb_javascript_howto2.html#client
It says "doSubmit('Delete');" to submit the delete action.
If I do the same in the java script that is embededed in html header, it does not work.
I am assuming 'Delete' is the name of the button here.
I also tried:
document.forms[5].submit(); --> does not work
document.formname.submit(); --> does not work
I want to know:
how I get the form name. I am assuming that this is the name in Name field in "Page definition" or is this page number?
how to sumit a form from the javascript in html header

sudheshna,
function deleteConfirm(msg)
should be

Outbound Plain HTML Adapter how to change the html-header field "host"?

Hello,
I'm using XI 3.0 SP11 and want to transmit a message to a business partner using the Plain HTML Adapter.
My problem is now that I need to change the default Html-Header field "host" because it seems that the adapter engine is converting it to lower case and is attaching the port-number which is causing trouble with the loadbalancer/applicationserver of our business partner.
I tried to set the appropriate http-header value in the communication channel configuration, but the adapter engine is ignoring this value.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Hi Sascha,
unfortunately the Plain HTTP adapter is not running in the J2EE, therefore you cannot extend the functionality with an adapter module.
I am not sure to understand the problem right. Why do you need to change the HTTP header? What is in it in your case and what should be?

HTML select size attribute on iPad

The HTML select size attribute specifies the number of visible options in a drop-down list. The example below will show all four entries on the drop-down, however nothing was shown in iPad.
<html>
<body>
<select size="4">
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
<option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
<option value="audi">Audi</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
Is there a way that I can show all four entires in iPad?

The size attribute is supported as usual in Mac OS Safari. In mobile Safari the size attribute does not produce a multiple element list but, rather, a pop-list with multiple elements. The appearance is different but the functionality is the same.
Using your Safari browser --- Compare this result using Safari OSx http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtmlselectsize results in 4 items in dropdown.
and using your Firefox browser this result using FireFox http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtmlselectsize results in 2 items in dropdown.
You will notice that Safari does not support the size attribute of the select tag which in this case was "2".
Message was edited by: BobTheFisherman
The reason that Mac OS Safari displays 4 items in the example you cite is because the minimum number of items in a selection list that Safari will display is 4. If you try the following example where size is set to 5 and there are seven list items you will see that Safari does, indeed, support the size attribute (with the lower limit of 4).
Here 5 is specified as the size and only 5 items (of the seven given) will be displayed.
<html>
<body>
<select size="5">
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
<option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
<option value="audi">Audi</option>
<option value="ford">Ford</option>
<option value="mercury">Mercury</option>
<option value="lincoln">Lincoln</option>
</select>
</body>
</html>
So it does not work. It only appears correctly if you want to display 4 or more in the dropdown box.
As an aside, is this a Safari standard way of implementing the select tag with the size attribute? If so, maybe Safari users should rethink their bashing of Microsoft IE for implementing non-standard functionality. I'm not suggesting that you participate in that activity and I thank you for testing and explaining this Safari quirk.

Can we have javascript function in the HTML header of Page 0

Hello,
I want to have a javascript function implemented on page zero, Can anyone help me out with this issue.
Thanks,
Orton

There is no HTML Header on Page Zero. The equivalent would be to use the page template.
It's also possible to place JavaScript in HTML regions on Page Zero, but I wouldn't consider this a good practice. JavaScript is better kept in external files and referenced using the SRC attribute.
