I've just got this to work.
Go to the Column Formatting page for your report and set the "Display as" for column aaa as HTML

HTML link in report column -- help!!

I have a report generated from a sql statment. I load an image into a column using the following statement:
select
decode(processed,
-1,'img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#process_fail.gif" border="0" alt="Processing Failed"',
0,'href=#OWNER#.PROC_FUEL_ANN_REP?pk_seq_id=#PK_SEQ# img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#process_form.gif" border="0" alt="Process Form"',
1,'img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#processed.gif" border="0" alt="Form Processed"') "Processed",
"PK_SEQ",......select...from...
What is happening is that the image shows up just fine, and the link appears to work, but the #PK_SEQ# variable is not working. It shows up in the link as "...=#PK_SEQ" SHould be "...=1" The owner field gets populated correctly. The pk_seq field works with my blob download procedure (i.e. xxx.xxxxx?f_file=#PK_SEQ#).
Any clues or suggestions on how to get the #PK_SEQ# var to properly work in the link?
Thanks alot
brux2dc
ps. I had to remove the '< >' characters to make the post appear correctly.

You'll need to do string concatenation to get the primary key column from your table to appear in the href. Something like:
'href=#OWNER#.PROC_FUEL_ANN_REP?pk_seq_id=' || PK_SEQ || ' img src=....'

Can I use a report item as a parameter in an html link.

I have a report (build using the Query Wizard) that selects and
shows data from a database on a seperate system (via a database
link). The first column of the report gives an ID Number that I
want to use as part of an html link to display the full details
of the item.
So if the item on the report has a value of 123456 I want my
html link to create a url of http://system/plsql/show_details?
thingid=123456
Any ideas?

We are using dynamic pages to accomplish that goal. The links
actually go to items/folders within portal, but it would be the
same thing.
I have found using the combination of links and reporting tools
to be very limited on the site when it comes to trying to create
links to things other than forms or other reports. That is
probably 90% ignorance on my part, but I have not been able to
accomplish this in any way other than a dynamic page.
Any suggestions on building a dynamic link within a portal
created report to a portal page/item would be appreciated.
I have also tried to concatenate in a <a href> tag in a SQL
Query based report, but generally errors. We have also created
a view that creats the link for us, that could be another option
for you, if the link is static.
Good Luck and hope my ramblings make sense.

How to include HTML link in BI Publisher Report?

Hi,
I am trying to include an HTML link in a BI Publisher report. But I get the HTML Code, not the link.
I have put this in the Data Set SQL Query:
select id_constancia, rfc, apellido_paterno, apellido_materno, nombre, e_mail_empleado,
'a href="http://dbxserver.dbxprts.com:7778/pls/apex/f?p=134:1:::NO::P1_ID_CONSTANCIA:'||ID_CONSTANCIA||'">CITA</a ' as liga_cita
from geiq_constancias
where entregada = '0' and sust_rh = '0'
And I have included the field LIGA_CITA in the rtf template,
But I get this in the HTML output:
=======
Please clic on the link below to log into the system:
a href="http://dbxserver.dbxprts.com:7778/pls/apex/f?p=134:1:::NO::P1_ID_CONSTANCIA:1183">CITA</a
=========
(I removed the beginning and ending '<''>' to prevent the text to be shown as a link)
I have put the property "Make HTML output accessible" to TRUE in the report configuration, but nothing changes.
Does anyone know how to make this work?
Thanks.
Francisco

Hi Francisco,
Note:
your xml should only have
<URL>http://dbxserver.dbxprts.com:7778/pls/apex/f?p=134:1:::NO::P1_ID_CONSTANCIA:1183</URL>
Show me your sample XML , i can help you.
What is your expected output ? PDF or HTML ?
here it is.
option1:
If the XML data includes an element that contains a hyperlink , then you can use that element to create dynamic hyperlinks at runtime.
a. insert hyperlink from word menu
b. In the Type the file or Web page name field of the Insert Hyperlink dialog box, enter the following syntax:
c. {ELEMENT_NAME_WHICH_HAS_URL_LINK}
where ELEMENT_NAME_WHICH_HAS_URL_LINK is the xml data element name
option2:
create a form field, you can add it
<fo:basic-link external-destination="http://www.google..com">
<fo:inline text-decoration="underline">google Link</fo:inline>
</fo:basic-link>
or
<fo:basic-link external-destination="{ELEMENT_NAME}">
<fo:inline text-decoration="underline">google Link</fo:inline>
</fo:basic-link>
or
<fo:basic-link>
<xsl:attribute name="external-destination"><xsl:value-of select="ELEMENT_URL"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:value-of select="LINK_NAME"/>
</fo:basic-link>

How to Pre-populate DueDate+7 in Report w/ drill down HTML link to new task

Wizards,
I have created a report that has a column containing a HTML link to create a new task with pre-populated data filled in from the report row. Everything works great except two fields:
(1) Due Date field should be Todays's date + 7 days.
(2) Description should be today's date
What is the formatting to populate these fields after the =? (&TaskEditForm.Comment=XXX)
It seems to take whatever code I try and inserts the code into the field, instead of a date. So &TaskEditForm.Comment=CURRENT_DATE returns the words CURRENT_DATE
Thanks

HTML Link to Product Revenue Detail Page

I have a simple table report developed for the Product Revenue.
Help me with either "Custom Text" using ActionLink or a HTML Link for navigating to Product Revenue Page.
I tried following link
http://"@[html]"<a target=_blank href=https://secure-ausomxafa.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/RevenueDetail?OMTHD=RevenueDetailNav&OMTGT=RevenueDetailForm&RevenueDetailForm.Id="@">"Click"
Thanks

Try this:
'Product Detail'
the product revenue needs the Opty ID to be passed into it. If this doesn't paste properly email me at alex.neill@{see profile} and I'll email it to you.

Link in report with SSP enabled

Hey everyone, I have a question here involving programatically generated links in reports from the sql query behind them. How do I make a link to the page (from the report's sql query) that will allow me to change the value of a hidden and protected item (P16_PERSON_CONTACT_ID) without having APEX Session State Protection get angry at me and still protect me from having the user muck with the URL?

David,
Well bind variables are more performant and safer to use in queries. It shouldn't really be a debate on when to use them, you always use them when you can. Here's a quick break down (not a complete list, and should probably be expanded, but should get you going)...
Use bind variable syntax when you're referencing an item:
1. In a report query
2. In PL/SQL code that is stored in the application (as a page level process for example)
Use substitution variable syntax when you're referencing an item:
1. Outside of SQL and PL/SQL but still need the value - this is not always an option (in the HTML Header region of a page or title of a region for example)
Use V and NV functions when you're referencing an item:
1. In PL/SQL code stored outside the application (in a package for example)

How to use the html:link with a arraylist

Hi everyone:
I want to display the data using struts html:link.
I query the database and place all the data to javabean,later place all the javabean to ArrayList.In Action,I use the "request.setAttribute("lovetable",articlelist) to set request to jsp page.
I want to pass a parameter "id" use the hyperlink so I can get the parameter when I click the hyperlink.
But how to use html:link to display it?
I use <html:link action="viewtopic.do" paramId="id" paramName="lovetable" paramProperty="id"/>,it can't work and Tomcat report error :
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: No getter method for property id of bean lovetable
     at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:248)
     at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:295)
     at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.service(JspServlet.java:241)
The lovetable is a ArrayList and it don't have a getter or setter method.
How to use it pass parameter? :( Thks

Thank you.
I use the bean:define successful.And display all the data to jsp.My jsp code is:
<logic:iterate id="love" name="lovetable">
<bean:define id="idbean" name="love"/>
<tr bgcolor="<%=color%>">
<td><bean:write name="love" property="id"/></td>
<td><html:link forward="viewtopic" paramId="id" paramName="idbean" paramProperty="id"><bean:write name="love" property="title"/></html:link></td>
<td><bean:write name="love" property="name"/></td>
<td><bean:write name="love" property="time"/></td>
</tr>
</logic:iterate>
In Action : request.setAttribute("lovetable",articlelist)
ResutlSet rs=.............
List articlelist=new ArrayList();
while(rs.next()){
articlebean bean=new articlebean();
bean.setName(rs.getString("name"));
bean.setTitle(rs.getString("title"));
articlelist.add(bean);
The above code will work property.
The Tag "html:link" need bean to work other than arraylist so I iterate all the bean out.
The Tag "logic:iterate" need collection to work so I make Action return a List.
right?
Any idea? :)

I generate file (PDF, HTML, etc) the report is empty but I run in paper

Hi
I use oracle Report10g
When I generate file (PDF, HTML, etc) the report is empty but I run in paper design show data, the report in the paper design show many pages, when generate file show only the information of the margin in the main seccion and the body is empty,
Thanks

Thanks Daniel for pointing that out. Though you answer is helpful but I am not sure if that is what I would want to do.
The link you provide for csv says "For each report there's an _report.xdo file that contains the XML structure of the report... " It suggests I modify the .xdo file for each report. I currently have 16 reports.
Does it mean I modify the .xdo file for all 16 and what happens if someone creates a 17th report ?
Also, what if I run the same report using different input parameters will that change the xml structure for the report and therefore will need me to modify the .xdo again ? (I think it should not change the xml structure so the answer should be "NO" to that, unless I change the structure of the report).
Finally, the link you provide says after doing what it suggest "Now log back into BI publisher and select the report. You should now be able to see that CSV is now an option."
CSV should be an option where ? on what screen/page ? Maybe PDF is already an option for me that I cant see because I do not know where that option is.
I was hoping there would be something I could do on the xdo_metadata sheet (in the data constraints section or elsewhere) OR in BI Publisher itself as some property of the report.
I will try out what you suggest any ways.

Why no link to report piracy on Apple's web site?

The is a user on Dallas Craiglist that is selling brand new iMacs with what must be $10,000 worth of software on it.
Unfortunately Apple doesn't have a link to report piracy like Adobe does.

Linking BW report outputs with VC story board output

Hi Everyone,
I have a scenario where I have display list of report names in VC output screen and I have to link these texts with few BW report outputs.
This can be achieved in WAD using HTML coding by linking the report's URL, how can we do the same in VC. My customer wants in such a way that the report has to open in a different window in VC.
I checked even in SDN where I didnt find the exact answer.
Can any one help me out to achieve task.
Regards,
Chan

Dear Pradeep,
I have checked the document which u have suggested me, it is really helpful. But still i need some specefic inputs.
My client has already developed these dashboards in WAD but now they want everything in VC. Here no interference of WAD.
Let me explain you what I exactly want ...
In VC output screen I want to display the list of report names ( Hard coded ), when I click on these reports (I mean text eg: sales analysis), it has to take me to the sales analysis report output in a different window or may be in same window.
Now displaying this text and linking it with the Query designer report output is my confusion. Can u guide me to achieve this. (Here, No interference of WAD)

Chan

Link on report returns no value when record containts '&' or '' (space)

I have created a report based on a sql script. I want to link this report to a form. With the standard LINK, the records that contain a space or '&' sign aren't linked to the form.
Is there a way to resolve this? I know that there is a way to add html in the sql script and set the column to display as HTML.
But what script do i need to manually set the link, and not using the standard Portal LINK?
Thx.

Hi,
In the sql based report you can make a column a html link.
Here is an example
select ''||empno||'' empno,
ename
from scott.emp
The above query returns a html link which points to a chart and takes empno as a parameter.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Dynamic HTML link in webdb

I want to create a link from a drawing name in a report to a drawing file. The link is made up of a drawing name and revision which are columns on the report. Is it possible to do this with WebDB?
Example:
drawing number = 001-1234-25
revision = A
HTML link = ftp:/[email protected]/drawings/001-1234-25.tif orev=A ofile=001-1234-25.tif
thanks...

Yes. In the add PL/SQL code screen, add htp.anchor('link', 'displayname', null, null), the quote is single quote.

HTML link

We have a custom object. We want to be able to click a record from an analytics report and then go to the page layout of that record. For typical object like Account, we can accomplish this via ActionLink for the column in Analytics.
However since this is a custom object, it seems the only way to do so is using HTML link. I'm unsure how to write the html link.
The page URL for a specific record is as such:
https://secure-ausomxala.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/CustomObj3Detail?CustObj3DetailForm.Id=AALA-21T4DG&ocTitle=AALA-21T4I2&OMTGT=CustObj3DetailForm&OMTHD=CustomObject3DetailNav&ocEdit=Y&OCTYPE=&ocTitleField=Name
In Analytics report for the 'Name' column, I overwrote the data format to 'custom text format' and put the following html link there:
@[html]@
But this doesn't work. Does anyone know the exact way to write the html text?
Edited by: user637947 on Oct 6, 2009 2:12 PM

Try this. I haven't tried it on a custom object yet, but give it a shot. Put this in the Custom Text Format field. Also, I used the Id field instead of the name field. I don't remember if that is required, so try it on name first and if it doesn't work on Name, try it on the Id field.
@[HTML]<a href="https://secure-ausomxala.crmondemand.com/OnDemand/user/CustomObj3Detail?OMTGT=CustObj3DetailForm&CustObj3DetailForm.Id="@ target"=_blank">"Custom Object 3 Details"</a>
Good luck,
Thom
