I'm in need of a "container"

Hi all.
In my project there are 2 radio buttons. Each of them gives access to several controls (such as string, listboxes and checkboxes) which differ both in number and in type. What i would like to do is to make these controls visible or invisible in a single shot. To do this, i think i need to insert controls in 2 different "containers", each one related to a specific radio button. In this way i should be able to display controls i want, simply make the right container visible and the wrong one invisible.
Does anyone know how i can do this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

use the suggestions from above and than connect your bool to a visibility property.

  • Need Help with Container

    Hi, I need to make a "container" in Dreamweaver to hold my content
    (Header, Body & Footer).
    I am looking at W3Schools but I also need to do it in Dreamweaver
    so please tell me if my steps are correct below.
    1. So I created a new HTML page and then inserted my cursor in
    the page and selected "insert div".
    2. I then was presented with a popup with the following choices.
    Question #1
    Class - I know what a class is but is this space for the class name or what is it asking for
    here? If I am creating a container then do I name it .Container here?
    Question #2
    ID - I know what an ID is. It can only be used once per page, but why is there a separate
    space for this? What do I put here?
    I then choose the "New CSS Rule" button (above) another popup opens (below) with
    these options.
    Question #3
    Contextual Selector Type - I choose "Class" because it is reusable. Is this correct?
    Why is DW asking for this again when it already asked for it above?

    DW is asking you if you want to compound your class/ID rules or not. I typically don't.  I prefer to keep things as simple as I can.  The following CSS divisions might be found in a 3-column layout:
         #wrapper {  }
         #header { }
         #menu { }
         #mainContent { }
         #sideBar1 { }
         #sideBar2 { }
         #footer { }
    You might use compounding to add a unique style to a division inside a division.  Example:
    #wrapper #header p {
    this rule only applies to paragraphs that are inside the #wrapper #header divisions.
    p {
    this rule applies to all paragraphs regardless of which division they are in.
    #wrapper p, #header p {
    this rule applies to both #wrapper and #header paragraphs (notice the comma).
    Division IDs have greater importance than classnames and can be used only once per page.
    .Classnames have slightly less importance than IDs -- thus an ID rule in a parent container may override a class rule.
    Best to use IDs for main layout regions.  Use classnames for things you may have need for more than once.  Some examples of Classes:
    /**TEXT ALIGNMENT**/
         .center {text-align:center}
         .left {text-align:left}
         .right {text-align:right}
    /**FLOATS, CLEARING**/
         .floatRt {float:right; width: auto;}
         .floatLt {float:left: width: auto}
         .clearing {clear:both; line-height: 1px}
    /**SPECIAL TEXT STYLES **/
         .title {font-size: 38px; color: red}
         .caption {font-size: 14px; color: green}
         .legal {font-size: xx-small; color: black}
    If you haven't already, work through the following DW CS5 tutorial.  Well worth the effort.

  • Help needed with choosing container

    Hi
    I am writing a language editor ( english to native language). The editor would use the tranliteration. I need to make this both an application and an applet(for obvious reasons). Any suggestions on what container should be used? Any examples to look at?
    Thanks
    kris

    Just use the applet.When you want to make it an application just add the applet to the Frame's contentpane.

  • Need for Custom Container

    Hi all,
    I have read that you use Custom container class for oops alv. But i have not found an answer as to  why do we have to use the class.
    Can't we just use ALV class only (Cl_gui_alv_grid) ?.
    Regards
    Varun

    You can only create a grid display in a container...while creating the object for grid contol you have to pass the object reference of the custom container...check out the following for details...

  • Help needed with Global Container usage

    Hi All,
    In a scenario, we are using a Global container.
    we are using setParameter and getParameter methods to set and get values from the Global Container.
    The problem we are facing is that although we are setting the value for a parameter before getting it but it always returns "null".
    Please find attached the code:
    SetVar:
    GlobalContainer myGlobalContainer;
    myGlobalContainer = container.getGlobalContainer();
    myGlobalContainer.setParameter(b.toUpperCase(), a);
    return a;
    GetVar:
    GlobalContainer myGlobalContainer;
    myGlobalContainer = container.getGlobalContainer();
    if (myGlobalContainer.getParameter(a) == null) {
       return "";
    else {
       return (String)myGlobalContainer.getParameter(a.toUpperCase());
    We have also tried putting the string value excplicitly in "" but of no use.
    We also read the blog by Michael but i think the problem is a little different.
    If any body can help us with where to look for Global Container related errors, it would be of great help.
    Regards,
    Varun Joshi

    Varun,
    The Signature of setParameter() is,
    void
    setParameter
    (String parName, Object obj);
    Taking this into account,
    GlobalContainer myGlobalContainer;
    myGlobalContainer = container.getGlobalContainer();
    myGlobalContainer.setParameter(b.toUpperCase(), a);
    return a;
    In this method you are settting parameter b with value a.
    But, in the get
    GlobalContainer myGlobalContainer;
    myGlobalContainer = container.getGlobalContainer();
    if (myGlobalContainer.getParameter(a) == null) {
    return "";
    else {
    return (String)myGlobalContainer.getParameter(a.toUpperCase());
    You are trying to use get(a) when it should be get(b).

  • HELP NEEDED. Plugin container stopped working / Script does not respond

    Hi!
    I am aware that there are numerous articles about this problem, but unfortunately none of them solves my problem.
    Very frequently, at least once a day (usually from 3 to even 7 times a day) my Mozilla Firefox freezes and I am forced to restart it. It typically occurs when I try to open a page with some interactive content in it (youtube, some fancy flash pages, even gmail document preview). When I try to close it, Windows pops up a message saying that "Firefox stopped working" and terminates the application itself, and then another window pops up, saying "Plugin Container for Firefox stopped working". It's usually either that, but sometimes Mozilla also shuts itself without any warning and the same message appears.
    As for "script does not respond", it does happen as well, although way more seldom. Usually it happens on the pages with lots of images. The whole browser then freezes for couple of seconds, then it pops up a window saying that the script does not respond and asks whether I want to force it to continue or not. It doesn't make any difference which option I choose because usually the browser crashes anyway.
    I am using version 34 and I made sure all my plugins and addons are up to date. I also disabled hardware acceleration and tried to reinstall whole flash thing. I wonder whether it's the fault of one of my addons, but I admit I am not too eager to try and disable them all and then test it one by one because it would take up way too much time.
    Apart from that, none of the previous solutions seem to help, and the problem really gets on my nerves because numerous times I lost a huge block of text I was writing. Now I learned to copy everything I write couple of times :/
    Maybe the crash reports will help. I'll link them from the newest to the oldest (for some weird reason they are 3 crash reports from today, yesterday and 3 days ago - weird, because the browser has shut itself today at least twice, not to mention previous days):
    https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/ba7f5087-3d7d-4b2c-b9b1-04e6d2150105
    https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/72eaf792-5f06-445b-806c-cd7922150104
    https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/c3f81ff8-df10-45a6-8400-1c5912150103
    I'll be glad for any help because, honestly, I can't stand it anymore. No reinstalling of Firefox or restoring settings to default have helped me yet.

    Hmm, that's pretty bad. Often if Windows is stepping in with the crash report, then the issue is with a driver incompatibility, most commonly a display driver.
    Here are a couple things to try:
    (1) Disable Firefox from using hardware acceleration
    This is the traditional workaround. You can use:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    That takes effect the next time you exit and start Firefox up again, which the way you describe it, might be quite soon.
    (2) Disable the Flash player plugin from using hardware acceleration
    This is a separate setting. See this support article from Adobe: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues
    (3) Disable the Flash plugin's protected mode feature
    Protected mode has security benefits, but is not compatible with all systems for some reason. It can stall scripts on some systems, for example. You can disable the feature by creating or editing a settings file. The following pages/posts provide different approaches:
    * Adobe support article under the heading "Last Resort": [http://forums.adobe.com/message/4468493#TemporaryWorkaround Adobe Forums: How do I troubleshoot Flash Player's protected mode for Firefox?]
    * Manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/968190?page=5#answer-509209
    * Batch file to automate the manual steps: https://support.mozilla.org/questions/982093#answer-518078 (alternate version of Carm's batch file with a few changes by me: [https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=f7d304d92388737d&id=F7D304D92388737D!336&ithint=file,.bat&authkey=!AP2FXW2Y_3BXZyo])
    Any improvement?

  • Need help with container display / states

    Greetings!

    The items in the second tab aren't actually created or
    instantiated until they are first viewed. This is a performance
    setting built into Flex. You can however over-ride the setting and
    force all the tab contents to render immediately when the tab
    navigator is created. To do this, you define the creationPolicy on
    the TabNavigator and set the value to "all". Warning, this will
    hurt performance if the tab navigator has a lot of large child
    items.

    i am using oracle 9i (also ODP.NET)
    i want to know how can i get the result in the stored procedure itsef.
    2)how it could be designed in any other way.
    any help/suggestion is welcome
    thanks for your time --Pradeesh

    Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:
    SELECT C.COMB_ID
    , C.COMB_NAME
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID1) AS SUBJECT_NAME1
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID2) AS SUBJECT_NAME2
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID3) AS SUBJECT_NAME3
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
    FROM COMBINATION C;
    As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

  • PLEASE: How can I save my iphone texts and "notes" (not "the note") to my computer? I need them for reference and legal purposes. I have yet to find an app for this and iphone doesn't sync either one.

    Greetings!
    I am brand new to using a Support Community -- I'm more of a in-person show me learner but...huge snowstorm and I don't want to
    to make an appointment at a Genius Bar, driving 15 miles, especially since I asked about this once before  and no one there was able to
    give me an "official" Apple answer .  I do hope I am posting my question (and plea) for help properly.
    LOL when I had my first lil' Mac Classic, over 20 years ago, my participation in the techno world was soooo much easier, simpler.
    My current situation: I have soooo many texts on my iphone and I haven't deleted many because I need the information contained in them for
    future reference and for legal purposes.  I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself.
    I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need.  It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and
    my MacBook Pro.
    Also I often use Notes for quick journaling as well as copy and pasting from other apps, usually inspirational, that I know I am going to want
    to read again (always with credit noted ) and these too are taking up space.  If I could email myself I would but the apps I'm using don't offer that and each day there is a new commentary -- no way to go "back".
    I am currently using OS 10.6.8 on my MacBook -- my disc drive doesn't work and upgrading has to be done at the Apple Store so I don't have iCloud yet.
    My iphone 4  is running OS 6.0.1 -- no upgrade until I'm at a wifi connection -- most of the time I'm using my personal hotspot.
    I'm a very busy self-employed Nana raising grandchildren and a great-grandchild.  I don't have a lot of time and certainly not enough for copying and pasting every text as well as note and emailing it to myself.  There has got to be a better, easier way, yes?
    I'd be most appreciative of any and all assistance here.  Oh, someone mentioned to me I ought to get a "stick" for downloading but were talking
    in a language I'm still learning. 
    Thank you!

    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

  • Is remedial action needed if you click a link in an unsolicited 'scam-looking' email and the link went 404?

    Mac Mini 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo; 2GB memory; OS X 10.6.8. Incident occurred while using Firefox 35.0.
    The latest/most current discussions I can find are from 2013 or older. Assuming more than a year is plenty of time for "new" malware or even "virus" that can affect Macs to be developed and distributed, I can either assume that "no news is good news"-- 'no new malware/virus possibilities' for Mac, or swallow my pride and ask the question: Is there any malware or other harmful/malicious computer code--read, something that could steal my identity if/when I do my taxes online this year--currently known to be a threat to home non-business Mac computers?
    I ask because I committed the sin of all sins.....I got an unusual email from a vendor from whom I made one purchase (on ebay, a few months ago), asking me to loan "him" a sizable amount of money so he could "pay his hotel and retrieve his passport" while stranded in a foreign country. A very clear and not particularly uncommon scam method.....another flavor of the "grandma I'm in jail in Mexico" scam......and I'm one who constantly wonders how in the world people continue to allow themselves to get scammed (in my head when reading of other people doing it) by clicking on a link OR opening an 'attachment' in an unsolicited email. It wasn't tagged as "spam" by my ISP's very-good spam filters.....it was in my normal inbox; and, it was from a vendor I've done business with.
    There was no attachment, but there was a link; I hovered the cursor over it; the lower left of my monitor showed the link exactly the same as it appeared on the page. I figured, well, it seems to be to the correct URL (knowing the seller's web address outside of ebay because I had visited it before finding he sold the same items on ebay). So, I clicked the link. Without a second thought. There was no other 'contact info' in the body of the email, so I thought the link looks authentic so I'll just go see if there's any information there about the owner being out of the country or ????.
    The link took me to a Google "404" not found page. It was only there that I noticed the URL/link had an added letter; a stupid lack of attention on my part. The site could not be found because the URL was misspelled. I still was blissfully unaware that I violated my own rule (not to click links or attachments in unexpected email from entities I don't know or aren't currently transacting with). So I just closed the window and forgot about it.
    It was only on waking this morning that I realized what I did.....and started worrying that I may have been directed to a phony "404" page that, without any further action on my part needed, might have contained something malicious that could be passed to anyone who connected to the page. I don't even know if that's possible, and I have so far not seen any unusual activity on the computer. But soon I will want to file my tax return....and I worry about the timing of this unusual-possible-scam email and the beginning of "tax time" here in the states?
    So, in summary: Should I be worried that I fell for some new (since 2013) method of unknowingly downloading malicious software to my Mac? If so, what should I do now?

    I don't even know if that's possible, and I have so far not seen any unusual activity on the computer.
    No, it's not even remotely possible. What you encountered was an attempt to scam you, and a pathetic one at that.
    Identity theft in general is a significant threat to any computer (a term encompassing Macs, PCs, iPads, iPhones...) user. However, that threat most commonly arises in the form of "phishing" and you didn't play along with it. The likely reason the email appeared to have come from one of your previous eBay vendors is that his email address was harvested using any number of methods. The email probably didn't even originate with him. eBay is a rich source for obtaining such information.
    eBay has a fairly helpful guide on the subject: http://pages.ebay.com/help/account/recognizing-spoof.html
    To answer your specific questions:
    Is there any malware or other harmful/malicious computer code--read, something that could steal my identity if/when I do my taxes online this year--currently known to be a threat to home non-business Mac computers?
    No.
    So, in summary: Should I be worried that I fell for some new (since 2013) method of unknowingly downloading malicious software to my Mac?
    No — although Mac-targeted adware has arisen since that time and is a rapidly growing annoyance that can make using your Mac practically impossible, it will not directly cause information theft as you have described it concerns you. Furthermore, it requires your participation to install it in the form of an Admin name and password — and it requires deception to convince you to supply those credentials. Learn more about how that happens here: How to install adware.

  • Container Element in ALERT

    Dear Experts,
    Can you plz explain, when it is required to create a CONTAINER ELEMENT in Alert Configuration.?  As we can use the System Defined Variables like  SXMS_ERROR_CODE, SXMS_FROM_INTERFACE etc, what is the need for the container element?
    The System Defined Variables are filled by the System during Runtime, when such an error happens. But who ‘ll fill  the Customized Container Variable and how??
    Also while creating a Container Element for ALERT, the data type can be of OBJECT TYPE/ ABAP DICT.REFERENCE/ABAP DICT DATA TYPE. What is the significance of each?
    Plz explain.
    Regards,
    Navneet

    Hi Navneet,
    The container element contains all the control information required at run time in the form of constants and object references.
    To inform the WF which object was created in the step via the method the reference to the bus object is passed via the binding definition from the task container to the Wf container. An appropriate element was therefore created automatically in the WF container with the correct data type.
    The workflow container contains an element which is defined with a data type reference to the same object type that is created in the referenced task, this binding definition is proposed automatically when an activity is defined.
    If no element with an appropriate data type reference is available in the workflow container, a suitable element is added to the workflow container and the binding entered.
    For more info pz go through the link given below,u will get the useful info regarding creation of container element and much more .

    Reward points if this helps

  • Container Variable in Alert

    Daer Experts,
    I m trying to configure Alert and in the Long Text, I want to pass  the value of an element in the pay load.
    What I believe that, I have to create a container variable .
    I think that while creating container variable, under D.TYPE Tab, the radio button "Object Type" is to be selected and Object Type should be  "XML OBJECT TYPE" . When I m clicking on F4 button,I am getting a list of Objects. How I'll include mine in the list?
    Pls let me know, is there any other way to do?
    Please give some  solution.

  • Using JCo as an RFCServer in a J2EE Container (Threading Issue)

    Hello,
    I want to use JCo as an RFCServer in a J2EE Container
    (e.g. JBoss, BEA WLS or WAS6.40).
    Threrefore I use a the JCo.Server class
    as shown in Example5 in the JCo Examples.
    But the JCo.Server class starts a thread (JCo.ServerThread) for each Server(Listener).
    According to the J2EE specs it is not allowed
    to start (user) threads in a J2EE Container,
    because the container does the whole thread
    manangement/lifecycle.
    If JCo creates threads on its own, this might
    lead to erros. For Example: BEA WLS stores
    information in ThreadLocal variables and if you
    call a SessionBean from the JCoServer.handleRequest method
    the Container will (perhaps) fail, because the
    thread created by JCo does not have the ThreadLocals
    needed by the container.
    I know that there is the IServerThread interface in JCo,
    but I don't know how to use it in a J2EE Container.
    What is the correct way to implement a JCo Server
    in a J2EE container?
    Does anyone know a working solution of a JCo Server
    in the BEA Application Server?
    Thanks,
        Joachim

    Joachim,
    As you wrote, it may not be a good idea to use JCO.Server's inside a J2EE container; i suggest you to build an 'adapter' for this purpose.
    An adapter is a program that can listen for any type of event and, once the event has been identified (type and specific data), the adapter will handle it accordingly.
    In this case, you can create a program that starts a JCO.Server (as in Example5) and use JMS to send messages (built from the info gathered from the JCO.Function call) to a Message Driven Bean in the J2EE container.
    Hope this helps.

  • Container definition for Abstract Synchronus Interface

    I am trying the simple scenario where the bpm process consumes soap request message (opens S/A bridge). After it queries another web services and sends back synchronously soap response, closing S/A bridge.
    I've walked through different weblogs and forum posts but still not getting how the interface variables should be created in this case.
    All my abstract interfaces are synchronous, and container definition for category "Abstract type" is only for Asynchronous interfaces.
    Should I create two additional asynchronous interfaces with the same request/response message names to be able create interface variables?
    And if message names are different in both soap calls should I create 4?
    Thanks,
    Evgeni
    scenario is similar to the one described in the weblog https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/1403 [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]
    but without call to the legacy system and instead of JDBC it is another webservice.

    Hi, thanks for replay,
    >So this Abstract interface is used in the Receive step of the BPM(opening of the Sync/Async Bridge).
    I've created Abs Sync interface and used it in the Receive step. My problem is I can not assign value to the Message Name in the step Properties.
    To assign value I need first create container. To create container I need provide Type, which can be selected from the list of the "Message interfaces". But the list displays only Async Abs interfaces not Sync. How I should create container for Sync Request message?
    Looking on the help link you provided. How I should create following:
    Container
       Request
         BpmPatternBridgeRequest
       Response
         BpmPatternBridgeResponse
    Kind regards,
    Evgeni.

  • Multiline table container element does not display the contents

    Hi Guys,
    I am sending an email from the workflow. The workflow has few steps and in one of the steps the the workflow brings in few lines of text. This text is then stored in a multiline container element in the workflow.
    later in the workflow i am sending an email and this sendmail step is using the multiline containter. So in the body of the email i have used the container as shown below
    Your expense for the trip &TRIPEXP.TRIPNUMBER& has been rejected.
    The Reason for rejection(s) mentioned below:
    &CATSXT_LONGTEXT_ITAB##&
    Please change and submit again.
    However when i recieve the email i dont see any text. But when i look at the workflow log and check the contents of this table under the workflow container elements it has the data in it.
    Not sure where i am going wrong. I have checked the bindings and they are fine.

    Thanks Arghadip,
    Yes that was the missing link.
    One question:
    When i use sendmail step and use the variable drop down box i can see the workflow container elements. So why do i need the same container element in the sendmail setp? I just now created same element in the sendmail task. When i am able to access the workflow container elements in the send mail step then why there is a need to create a same container element in the send mail step and then do the binding for it to work?
