Images in HTML forms and/or reports

Hi,
Apologies if a stupid question, but can you display a combination of data and image content in Portal HTML forms and/or reports? If so, how?
This question assumes that the image in question is browser-supported (e.g. gif file), and the link to it is in the same database table as the data being reported (as a bfile data type).
Alternatively, what if the image was actually directly stored in the database table as a BLOB data type?
Help!
Cheers, Jeff

Hi Sharmila,
Thanks for the info!
Would this also work if the image wasn't a blob, but instead just stored on the filesystem (as a gif file), with the reference to it stored in the database as a bfile datatype?
Thanks once again, Jeff
Hi,
You can build portal forms to upload images. You can use blob columns here. You can also have images in a report. This will be the SQL to query data from tables having intermedia data.
Select a.empno,a.ename,a.mgr,a.sal,
portal30.wwv_user_utilities.get_intermedia('EMP','EMP_AUDIO','AUDIO',a.rowid)
the_audio, b.dname,b.loc,
portal30.wwv_user_utilities.get_intermedia('DEPT','DEPT_PICTURE','IMAGE',b.rowid) the_picture
from emp a, dept b
where a.deptno = b.deptno
The table should have the ordimage column type.
Thanks,
Sharmila

Difference between AFTER PARAMETER FORM and BEFORE REPORT in Reports 6i

Hi Aii,
What is the difference between AFTER PARAMETER FORM and BEFORE REPORT in Reports 6i.
Thanks in Advance,
Balu

Hi Balu.,
As per my findings the After Parameter is fired after the Parameters are given to the report and Before Report fires when the queries are parsed and data is fetched.

HTML Forms and Procedures

Hello!
We are trying out APEX for the first time. We would like to keep our business data objects in a different schema from the APEX schema. I have been able to successfuly create a proc and create a form over the proc in the differenet schema.
I'm wondering if we can create HTML forms and later reference the procedure. The goal is to have the Database Developers create the procs while the developers create the forms at their own pace, then later wire that form to the proc. I hope this makes sense!!
Thx!

I resolved this on my own. Pretty simple, just new at this.

HTML forms and tables w/Oracle

Hi,
New to Oracle - used AMP before.
My new organization does not use any open source so PHP is out. I assume I could use .net or java instead to DB query from HTML forms and render DB results to HTML tables.
But besides .net and java are there any other languages that work well with Oracle for this purpose?
Thanks,
Lee G.

hi,
you can use the pl/sql web tool kit to develop web applications

Oracle Forms and Oracle Reports as portlets

Please, where can I get the documentation to publish Oracle Forms and Oracle Reports as portlets. I found some information about it in metalink but the URLs are invalid.

Hi,
Here are the steps you need to follow while building Portlets .
1) After creating a Application,in the last step click on the Checkbox 'EXPOSE AS PROVIDER'.
If the application has already been created ,click on the same checkbox in the grant access section.
2) When creating a component within the application ,select the checkbox 'PUBLISH TO PORTAL'.
Incase ,you have already created the component then just click on the same option in the grant access section.
Now when you want to add these portlets to be part of a page .Just select the provider(Application) and the portlets under it.
Hope this helps.

Oracle forms and Oracle reports for Oracle 9i

Hello,
I'm searching for Oracle forms and Oracle reports that works with Oracle 9i.
Does someone know where I can find them?
Thanks in advance...

When we talk about Oracle9i, we often mean the database version 9i.
Apparently you want to use Forms and Reports 9i, which included in the obsolete (and very unhappy) Application Server 9i. ... Or the also obsolete Application Server 10g Release 1 (aka App Server 9.0.4.
You are encouraged to look at Forms and Reports 10g (part of the improved Application Server 10g) which does connect to Oracle Database 9i as well as Oracle Database 10g. Look for App Server 10g Release 2, version 10.1.2.0.2 and 10.1.2.2)

Displaying images in HTML Forms inside Servlets

          Dear friends
          How are you?
          I am developing Servlets in WebGain Studio Pro V4.1 VisualCafe
          V4.1 to display dynamic HTML forms with embedded
          images (*.jpg and *.gif).
          Please see the following sample code -
          "<DIV ID=\"Logo\" STYLE=\"position:absolute; left: 4%; top: 4%;
          width: 25%; height: 12%; z-index:1; visibility:visible\">" +
          "<IMG SRC=\"FigLogo.gif\" WIDTH=\"100%\" HEIGHT=\"100%\">" +
          "</DIV>"
          Then I deploymed servlets to BEA WLS 6.0 by including Servlets
          in the Web.xml file. However, I do not see the images when
          viewed in IE5.0 browser.
          I appreciate all comments and suggestions.
          Thanking you
          Very truly yours
          Sriram (Ram) Peddibhotla, PhD


          Dear Friends
          How are you?
          I moved all images (*.jpg, *.gif) to the subdirectory
          /myDomain/applications/DefaultWebApp_myServer/images
          and they are displaying now in the servlets with HTML forms.
          Thanking you
          Very truly yours

Calling Reports from Forms, and creating Reports objects

Hello I'm trying to create a Form which lists and launches all of our Reports. In our Client/Server set up we just have a Form which is based on a lookup table of Reports. When the user selects a report on the Form RUN_PRODUCT is used to call the report.
In Forms 9, do I have to create a Report object in the Form for every Report in our system and do I really have to modify the Form every time a new Report is created to add the new Report in?

Hello,
<p>No, one single report object could fit for any report, if you modify its properties at runtime.<br>
For information, I have written a Forms 9i module able to run any report with 0 up to 10 parameters</p>
<p>Hope this helps</p>

Running forms and calling reports generates a lot of files

could anyone help me on this one...
I have a form that the users use, on that form I call reports.
Now I don't know (forms? or reports?) what keeps creating files
on the directory they run the form....there is a lot (over 200
files) files that get created, most of them are 0KB size, the
rest is not understandable. And there are 3 types of file names:
1-02120151 (only the number change, and most of them are 0kb)
2-dat00356482 (these ones start by dat.....the rest changes also.
3-idx25410224 (these also change the numbers but the idx is
always there.)
is there anything i can do, i keep deleting them but they never
stop get created....what could happen?
i use forms 4.5.
thanks for your help,
bino,

oh bino isso sao perguntas de principiante pah:)))
esses ficheiros temporarios podes apaga-los, alias podes com as
dde do forms mandar apagar todos com extensao idx!
esses ficheiros o forms cria-os para gestao interna da ligacao
entre aplicacoes (forms, reports)

HTML form and java

Hi,
I have been pulling my hair out for the past week on this with no suces EVEN after forum searching, googling ..........
Here is the problem:
I have an HTML form of the following type and need to pass in a Javascript variable to the servlet called on hitting the submit button.
<script>document.write('<form name="Test" method="get" onSubmit="return chkfields(this)" action="/servlet/NewServlet?ABC='+unescape(params["ABC"])+'">')</script>For debugging purposes, I have a document.write statement and I see it on the page right above that line and it does display it on the field. However this thing does not pass the varible to the servlet. I even tried replacing the unescape(params["ABC"]) with just the variable name used in the form as ABC and that did nto work either. Please suggest any other suggestions.

test.html:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en">
<html>
<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
function setHidden() {
document.testForm.testInput.value = "test";
return true;
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" name="testForm" action="test2.jsp" onSubmit="return setHidden()">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="testInput">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>test2.jsp:
<html>
</head>
<body>
<%
out.println(request.getParameter("testInput"));
%>
</body>
</html>

Smart Forms and BI report

Hi Experts,
I want to know whether we can call a BI report into a Smart Form in ECC. I mean can we populate the fields of the smart form with the contents of the BI report.
Thanks,
SB.

HTML forms and Servlets

Hi all.
This is the story:
I got a SELECT field that contains OPTIONS with values and labels (both different). How I do to get this two data.
With request.getParameter("menu1") i can get the VALUE, how i can get the Label?
Second quiestion:
I got a input checkbox type , this has a VALUE property, but In my servlet i just want to know if it's cheked or no.
If i do something like request.getParameter("check1")I get the VALUE data. how to tell if it is cheked??
Thanks in advance any help.

First Question:
The option value is what gets sent is when the form is submitted. If you want the information sent then you'll have to add it to the value and parse it out in the servlet.
Second Question:
Only checkboxes that are checked get sent when the form is submitted. If the parameter does not return null then the box was checked. If the box was not checked then the getParameter call will return null.

Http Session combing HTML forms and List / Menu Components

My problem is the following one... I have a .jsp page that includes a form with three List / Menu Components. I want my second List / Menu Component to be filled with data depending on the selection I have made to the first List / Menu Components. (Of course there is a MYSQL database behind). And I want the third List Menu Component to be filled with data depending on the selection I have made to the second one.

Three options:
1) use incredibly large javascript arrays to hold the data for the second and third lists and use onChange events in the first and second list to alter the list contents based on selection
2) use ajax calls to fetch the data for the second and third list, still using javascript events to listen for selections.
3) do a form submit on each selection and fill the lists server side.
The third option is of course by far the easiest, but that will give you submits in between that you may not want. Ajax is a good solution to this problem in my opinion.

Form and report on a table - redirecting to report on submit

Hi,
I've created a form and a report on a table...
in a form, one of the item is a radio group (with submit) with static list of values... I've set it up to submit as I am hiding/displaying other items based on the selection... for example, when user select the location value then only city and country fields are displayed and so on...
my problem is that when I make a selection it saves the state and takes me back to the report... when I come back to the report then I see items (hidden/displayed based on the selection that I made before I left the form)
any way to fix it...? please advice
Thanks

Hi,
OK - we can't use a Dynamic Action but we can use Javascript to do this.
Firstly, change the item type to an ordinary Radio button - that is, remove the Submit
Secondly, in your page attribute's HTML Header setting, add in:
<script type="text/javascript">
function submitByRadioButton()
if ($v('P1_PKITEM') != '')
doSubmit('P1_RADIOITEM');
</script>Replace P1_PKITEM with the page item name for the hidden primary key and P1_RADIOITEM with the page item name of the radio button.
Then, on the radio button item, add the following in the HTML Form Element Attributes setting:
onclick="javascript:submitByRadioButton()"Finally, create a branch that returns to the same page - make sure that the Sequence number puts it before any Unconditional branch. Set the Condition for this to "Request = Expression 1" and enter P1_RADIOITEM (or whatever the page item name is for the radio button) into the Expression 1 setting.
Now, when the user creates a new record, the hidden P1_PKITEM value will be blank. Clicking the radio button at this time will not trigger a submit and the function checks this. For existing records, P1_PKITEM will contain a value, so the function will allow the doSubmit to run.
