Html Region Background showing outside of Region

Hi, I would have assumed that if I had a html region as an URL, then it would display the full html page inside the region.
However, what actually happens is the content is inside the html region, but the background appears outside the region.
I just want the whole web page to appear in the region, in the same way as it does in my browser.
HELP!!!
For reference, this is my web page. I have fully qualified the gif so I do not need to copy it anywhere and can edit in only one place:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>My APEX Test Page</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body background="http://myserver:7778/myimages/mybackground.gif">
<h1><strong>My APEX Test Page</strong></h1>
<h2>Title</h2>
<h3>Sub Tile</h3>
<p>A little bit of detail!</p>
</body>
</html>

Hello,
The issue is some of the styles are declared inline in the html and some have specific colors assigned, your grass background being on the body background don''t override the styles at the region level, (this is specific css stuff not some bug in APEX).
You'll probably want to create a new region template and report template and strip out the class and style declarations and you might have to edit the page template a bit as well.

Cannot get an Apex HTML region with table with a background image to resize image to fit table

I want to achieve this: Table whith background image but cannot get it to work in an Apex page with HTML region.
Adding the following code to the html region:
<table class="tableWithBackground" width="300px" height="200px" border="1">
    <tr>
        <td>
            <img class="tableBackground" src="#APP_IMAGES#Demo.jpg">
            Hello
        </td>
        <td>
            World
        </td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
        <td>How are<br><br><br><br><br>you?</td>
        <td>I am fine</td>
    </tr>
</td>
Results in a page with a table but without borders (at his stage I have not yet uploaded the Demo.jpg). After uploading the Demo.jpg results in a table with the entire image placed in het first cell. After placing the class code in the CSS inline property I expected to see the result as is shown in the Table whith background image demo. For some reason this does not work (the image is no longer visible).
Can anybody tell me how to achieve my goal?
Thanks in advance!

This is a workaround. What's your real goal? Why do you want to do this?
What browser(s)/version(s) are you using? All current browser versions have support for CSS3 background sizing which is the proper way to do this.

How to Display PHP Output as Portlet in HTML Region using utl_http.request

I wanted to be able to parse PHP functions to add more functionality to my Page. nothing fantasy, something simple like: http://phpsysinfo.sourceforge.net/phpsysinfo-dev/?template=classic
Where the realtime values are retrieved from the OS. this represent some kind of problem to me, I know how to do it from Shell Script, Perl or PHP, but not from PL/SQL.
Based on my experience using Oracle Portal, Portlets, I think we really can make use of the feature used in Portal called Web Clipping. [ This feature basically goes to some Site a retrieve part of the site to show in the current page]. Well the PL/SQL utility utl_http.request does something similar.
Make sure your request page does not retrieve some headers because that would cause a problem in your page and will not show up.
This is what I did:
<b> 1.- </b> Grant Privileges to execute [ <b> utl_http.request </b> ] to the owner of your schema.
login into the OracleXE / APEX as SYS then go to the Object Navigator, then click on packages, find the utl_http.request then click on it, later click on grant and select your schema owner for your applicaion.
<b> 2.- </b> Logout as SYS then login as your application schema user. just to test the functionality go to the sql command then enter the following command and then click run:
<b> select substr(utl_http.request('http://www.oracle.com/'),1, 255) from dual; </b>
If your output is:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <title>Oracle 10g, Siebel, PeopleSoft | Oracle, The World's Largest Enterprise Software Company</title> <meta name="title" content="Enterprise Applications | Database | Fusio
<font color='blue'> Wow It worked </font>, this really could be useful !!, If not go back to step 1 and check your permissions to execute, or perhaps your Internet connectivity.
3.- Once we know the package works and we can retrieve content from the Internet. lets go to some of our pages add some HTML Region.
4.- Create an item and put into the new region. the source will be SQL, For the purposes of my test the query to the Oracle Page failed, so I decided to give a shot with a simple PHP script with no headers.
The internal server is: http://mytest.com/hello_world.php
Where the content of the hello_world.php is:
<?
echo '"<b> Hello World </b> ";
?>
This PHP works fine and display the basic Hello World. can be the same server or not, also noticed this can be another port perhaps using something like Ruby,Mason or Java.
<b> 5.- </b> Finally in my Item the source type is SQL and looks like this:
<b> select substr(utl_http.request('http://mytest.com/hello_world.php'),1, 255) from dual; </b>
Apply the changes and run the page !!!
Excelent It worked as expected. now you know how use utl_http.request to create webclipping in your OracleXE / APEX from remote pages, or how to use it to parse the output from CGI, Perl, PHP, Ruby or Java pages.
Note: [ Just make sure to strip the headers or parse into a PL/SQL Procedure to clean then show ]
Best Regards <b> Dino </b>.

Sorry, from your post in the LabVIEW board I did not understand that it was the Output message that you were looking for.
I thought you wanted the results from your test steps displayed on the user interface.
It is the “Output Panel” in the sequence editor that displays your output message, but I do not know if there is default Output panel activeX indicator for user interface that the TestStand engine would update automatically like it does the execution view.
Maybe someone else knows
As also pointed out, the UI messages is your other option.
The Output Message event number is 40
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/3879
UIMsg_OutputMessages–(Value: 40) TestStand sends this message at periodic intervals when it holds references to output messages that calls to the OutputMessage.Post method queue. TestStand transfers the queued messages to an OutputMessages collection attached to the UIMessage.ActiveXData property for this event. An application that processes output messages should copy the output message references from the collection in UIMessage.ActiveXData to its own private OutputMessages collection by passing its private collection to the OutputMessages.CopyMessagesToCollection method. An application calls the Engine.NewOutputMessages method to create a private OutputMessage collection. TestStand generates this event only if the Engine.OutputMessagesEnabled property is True. Because there can be more than one handler for this event, the application should not modify the OutputMessages collection the UIMessage.ActiveXData property holds.

Opening a Word document in a form layout html region

Hi all,
In an Interactive Report I use
select '<img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#'||package.f_get_document_type ( doc.id )||'" title="Document" width=20 height=20>'
) document
from table
to show an icon that eventually downloads (and shows) a word document.
Now I have a form layout html region and I want to have the same icon\link to show a document.The document however is not in the same table as the rest of the page is based on.
How can I show the document on this page?
Kind Regards,

One way, create a hidden item, and return the value into it from your package (by having a computation that calls the function package.f_get_document_type(:P1_DOC_ID) . Let's say it's called :P1_DOC_TYPE
There's a new item type in Apex 4, which is Display Image.
When you get to settings in the item creation wizard, specify what the image is based on. From there, you can set it to be 'Image URL stored in Page item Value. Then on the source page, you can just specify the URL, #WORKSPACE_IMAGES#&P1_DOC_TYPE.

Image rendered in HTML region on same page

I am using the Oracle OBE tutorial below to insert and manage a photo associate with an employee record. Howerver, clinking on the download link renders the image in a separte browser window. Is there any way to render the photo from the report and/or form in an HTML region on the same page? The report and form appear on the same page as well. Specific code or reference to such would be greatly appreciated.

Andy, I do appreciate you responding so quickly. The scenario I am trying to accomplish is the following: I have a table as follows:
Name Null? Type
SIA_ID NOT NULL NUMBER(20)
LOGIN_ID VARCHAR2(20)
LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(60)
FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(60)
EMAIL VARCHAR2(40)
MENTOR VARCHAR2(1)
PHOTO BLOB
FILENAME VARCHAR2(255)
MIMETYPE VARCHAR2(255)
LAST_UPDATE_DATE DATE
I have a Form with report that allows me to upload photos in the form and show the PHOTO column as a DOWNLOAD link in the report. I also have the ID column as a link to the form so I can edit details of that record. Is there any way with this scenario to simply allow the PHOTO (blob) to be shown in a small HTML region on the same page as this report and form? I'm thinking that I might be able to use an IMG tag in the HTML region but I'm not sure how to format it. So I guess I'd like to see the details for the record from the report in the form other than the photo which would show up in a separate region on the same page.
Thanks again.

Possible to display null item value as 'All' in blank HTML region?

Apex 4.1
Theme 21
Hi There,
I have select list which has null and other values. I have created a blank HTML region with the following text
Report for the year &P2_YEAR. and for geography &P2_GEOG.
Now P2_YEAR works fine because, it is always populated with a year. However, &P2_GEOG has 'All' as null value since we can see the report for all geographies. However, if the all option is selected, the above &P2_GEOG. shows as null. Since its not a PL/SQL proc, I cannot put in a NVL. I am guessing one possible way is to write a PL/SQL code before region and then check if its null and then try to populate a new hidden field and show, something like that. Wondering if there is a way to do it directly in the HTML region?
Thanks,
Sun

Hi Morten,
in the validation callback you could use apex_util.set_session_state to modify the page items value. We do that ourself in the "Number Field" native item type plug-in.

How to display RTE item in a HTML region

I have a process that is populating a hidden item with a RTE item from another page. I need to display this in its formatted state. I am using an HTML region to display this item but the page shows HTML tags instead of rendering them. I have tried both options under html region (escape special characters and plain HTML text).
Can someone please help me to display this formatted RTE item on a page? Btw...I am using APEX 4.0.
Thanks.

How to - link from HTML Region to Report Column?

Dear Apex gurus,
Ok, I'll go straight to my question. I have a file upload page with Report Region (conditional) which comes up after file uploading process. Under Report I have a column to delete uploaded file (column has an image in link, target in application, item name: P2_DELETE_ID and value: #DOC_ID#). Basically the Report picks up just uploaded file ID and allows me to delete the file by having Hiden Page Item (P2_DELETE_ID) and Before Header Process:
BEGIN
DELETE FROM EBA_ASSET_ORDER_TEMP_DOCS
WHERE doc_id = :P2_DELETE_ID;
END;with condition: Value in Expression 1 is Not Null, and Expression 1 set to:
P2_DELETE_IDI have and another conditional Region (which is HTML) and it comes up after file uploading process as well. The region Source is:
<div id="FinalMessage"></div>
<br />
<div ><a href="javascript:confirmFileDelete(htmldb_delete_message,'f?p=&APP_ID.:2:&SESSION.:REMOVE_ID:::P2_DELETE_ID:#DOC_ID#');"><img >src="/i/delete.gif" style="position: relative; top: 1px;"/>Remove Uploaded File</a>
</div>where id="FinalMessage" - is the Sucess/Error message from JS
and .....href="javascript:confirmFileDelete....... - is my actual question. So, I am trying to hide my Report Region and show only my HTML region where I will be able using this (.....href....) link delete file from my table. I am able to dele file using report colum link but my .....href.... link dosnt want to delete my file, doen't even want to pick up file ID. Is there a way where I can link my .....href.... link to pull from Report Column????
Thanks

I am getting crazy now:
It gives me an error message whan I am trying to add RETURN to my process, here is my process, seems to be fine and I can fined what is going on, may be I am blind:

APEX HTML REGION

Hi,
I am trying to place two HTML region, that play two different youtube videos, however only 1 shows.
My page consists of the following:
Display Point: Region Position 01
10
Open P1/P2 Calls
Flash Chart
20
Contracts By Country
Flash Chart (Column 2)
Display Point: Region Position 02
30
CSD Monthly Meeting
HTML
40
Spare Parts
HTML (Column 2)
Any ideas as to why the other region does not display, i tried to mess around with the layout, but something always goes missing, i guess there is a limitation of the page itself?

Hi,
I've no idea how you try to display your youtube videos, but you can add more than one video if you embed them as iframes.

Google Search embedded in an HTML region

Hello,
I tried to embed the standard Google search engine code (see below) into an HTML region within the HTML DB app, but upon hitting "submit" I get an error because the HTML DB engine tries to process the form post, instead of allowing a redirect to Google. I toyed around with this for a bit was unable to make it work. Has anyone else had success with this?
The error is:
http://myhostname.com:4444/pls/htmldb/wwv_flow.accept
The page cannot be found
The Google code snippet

<center>
<FORM method=GET action=http://www.google.com/custom>
<TABLE bgcolor=#FFFFFF cellspacing=0 border=0>
<tr valign=top><td>
<IMG SRC=http://www.google.com/logos/Logo_40wht.gif border=0 ALT=Google align=middle>
</td>
<td>
<INPUT TYPE=text name=q size=31 maxlength=255 value="">
<INPUT type=submit name=sa VALUE="Google Search">
</td></tr></TABLE>
</FORM>
</center>


Hello,
Actually Marife is telling you the exact same thing I am.
You will want to put your Google code in the page template. If it's in a region or somewhere else on the page it will break. When you open up your page template you will see there will be 2 substitution tags #FORM_OPEN# and #FORM_CLOSE# somewhere in the page template HTML. Your code needs to go on the outside of those tags so that the two forms in the page do not conflict.

Use a static file as HTML region source

Hi All,
Sorry for maybe trivial question, but is there a way to use static files as HTML region source? The files are simple enough but have to be translated so we'd rather keep them as static files, rather than paste them in multiple region sources to display conditionally.
I tried something like
<embed src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#&FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE.file01.txt" >
This however is showing the HTML source on screen and not rendering it as html.
The other option I tried is creating an URL region that would get the content from the same server, e.g.:
http://localhost:9080/apex/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=4874627831984398&p_fname=en_file01.txt
... but I'm running against an access control list (ACL) error. The file opens when one loads the link directly in a browser but localhost apparently is not allowed in ACL and I would not have sysdba access where I deploy.
finally I saw recommendation to use an iframe in a similar discussion to display pdf file here Display PDF in Apex Region land tried
<iframe src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#&FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE.file01.txt&embedded=true" style="" ></iframe>
but receive "Not found
The requested URL /apex/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file was not found on this server" as if the file name is not received at all? Same name is parsed correctly in the embed tag.
Please help

HTML Region

Hi,
I have an APEX application that uses some HTML regions to display help text and other types of messages for the user.
I realize I can enter HTML code to give color and other text formating. This is a great feature.
My question is: can I use items that are on the form inside the HTML?
For example, I have a hidden field that would be nice to see inside the HTML region. Is this possible?
Here is what I tried to do and id didnt work:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
<title></title>
<style type="text/css">
.style1
font-size: larger;
color: #0000FF;
.style2
color: #3333CC;
font-size: xx-large;
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p class="style2">
<strong>:*P65_CLM_ENR_ACC_MANAGER*</strong></p>
</body>
</html>
I'm not getting the value for :=P65_CLM_ENR_ACC_MANAGER, instead, it shows up in the region as ":=P65_CLM_ENR_ACC_MANAGER"
Any help would be appreciated :)

*ALWAYS post code wrapped in <a href="http://wikis.sun.com/display/Forums/Forums+FAQ#ForumsFAQ-Arethereanyusefulformattingoptionsnotshownonthesidebar%3F">wrapped in <tt>\...\</tt> tags</a> to preserve formatting and stop the forum software from interpreting HTML/CSS/JavaScript.*

<li>, and elements cannot appear in a region<tt>html</tt>, <tt>head</tt> and <tt>body</tt> elements cannot appear in a region: they can only appear once in a document and will almost certainly already be components of the page template.

<li>Re: Placement of APEX_CSS.ADD_FILE in HTML, <tt>style</tt> and <tt>link rel="stylesheet"</tt> elements should only appear within the <tt>head</tt> element of a document. If (as appears likely) these styles are required across your app, the best approach would be to create them in an external style sheet.

HEADER AND FOOTER IN HTML REGION

I want to create a repeatable HTML Header (not an ApEx region Header) for a HTML region as described in
http://www.html4newbies.com/header_footer_tip.php
I want to include the header at different points in my HTML region
It says that you need to save the Header in an external file and then reference it using the line

Can you do this in ApEx? I've uploaded the file with the header code into ApEx but how do I reference it? I've tried

but it doesn't recognize it.
Or is there a better way to do it?
regards
Paul P

Can a shortcut be plugged in the middle of report output?
The problem I'm grappling with is the page setup for a report prior to printing.
If I use a template, the header will still appear only once if the report is large and pagination is turned off.
Is the only way to define a "page" in ApEx through Pagination?
If I have a report with no pagination set and the number of rows set to, say 10000 and I want to print off the report, how would I place a page header or footer every 66 lines (i.e. simulating portrait on A4)?
Am I using the wrong application for this?
regards
Paul
