Implementing drop lists

Hi
I want to implement a list that is made up of information from the database. what i want is that the the list should be collapsible with a + sign to its side and then
when the user clciks on it, it expands to display all of the information. can someone help me with some code example on it.
Thanks for the help

You can made a list with a + sign just like windows explorer and windows registry by using javascript i.e. you JSP page will contain javascript code in it which will implemen it. It works in same way like windows explorer and windows registry does. It's code is lengthy so it is not feasible to post it here in the forums. But mind you the code i have got is a plain html page with javascript and no JSP so you will have to do some more work to make it work in a JSP page. Give me your email and I will mail it to you.
bye

Q: Creating a drop list with dynamic content?

Hi,
Like to start off by saying that I am new to this so be gentle...
I want to create a JSP which contains a search form.
To limit the search options I want to present some of
them as drop lists with pre-defined values.
As the drop list values need to be easiliy updated
I want to be able to control the content (using a servlet or a JB).
What would be the best way of implementing this?
Examples would be helpful.

This is pretty easy to do. All you have to do is below:
In the option tags place the jsp variable:
<option><%=variable%></option>
Good Luck,

Drop list selected="selected"

On an edit page form fields are always filled with data from
the database for the chosen record. How can the following code be
modified so that the selected value of the drop list defaults to
the data from the database for the chosen record as it pertains to
the data for the drop list?
<select name="companyName" id="companyName">
<option>Please select a Company</option>
<option spry:repeat="dsVendors"
value="{dsVendors::company_name}">{dsVendors::company_name}</option>
</select>

Hi Troy,
Does anyone know how to implement a droplist that does not require
an item to be selected? I would like to be able to have a drop list for
a query window where the user can optionally select something from
the list or leave it "blank". In other words, I don't always want an item
selected on a droplist.We have done this by simply adding a (none) or (any) item at the top of the
list of items in the droplist. I think you can also put a blank element in?
Hope that helps,
Tim

I bought an I pad 2 from us but I can not activate the Facetime in UAE(Dubai)as I can not see the country in the I pad's drop list, anyone has an idea as to how to resolve this issue

I'm not that familiar with how FaceTime works. I know how to set It up but I don't use it. I just know that you can't activate in the UAE. I believe that you can activate in any country that permits it's use. Whether you will need a new ID or not, I can't confirm.
You can Google this and get all sorts of articles on workarounds. Apparently if you set up a VPN you can use it in the UAE. Here is one article that I found.

I Googled "workaround for FaceTime in UAE" to find this.

How to lengthen the drop list view in form page selection?

Hi All,
Looking at 11.1.2.1 Planning, it's annoying that I can only see 10 members at a time when scrolling through the page drop list in forms:
http://www.stanford.edu/~mikeling/drop_list_screenshot.jpg
In 9.3, one is able to see a much longer list.
Is there a way to globally customize the length of viewable members in the dropdown, so that I see 20 or 30 members at a time, for example?
Mike

did you change it with the Application owner login(log in id using which the application created) and save it after making the change.
it is working absolutely the way you are expecting in my system. i login with Admin id and made the changes and saved it and my serch box incresed with number of members.

RE: Viewable Items on a Drop List in Forte V2

Hi Kumar,
Let me guess, you're using windows NT 4.0 as your client.
I had the same problem a few months ago and raised the
question in this list.
My answer is as brief as it is unsatisfying:
It is a known bug for which there is no work around.
Forte 2 and NT 4.0 don't mix very well. Forte 3 works fine.
You think you found some logic behind the bug, but you
haven't. I just so happened it works this way for these
droplists in this window. Other droplists in other windows
will not follow this logic. Some won't even show the bug.
These are your choises:
Don't use NT 4.0
Switch to Forte 3
Don't use droplists
Use some tricks, like adding an empty row at the end
of the list.

Subject: Viewable Items on a Drop List in Forte V2
I have a set of drop lists that are part of an array field which are
populated dynamically. If I set the number of viewable items to n,
and
if the drop list has m number of items in it, the number of items
that
actually appear is n-1 if the list contains more than n items( m>n)
and it is m-1 if the list contains less than n items (m<n).
For example, if I set the number of viewable items to 4 and a drop
list contains 7 items, the actual number of viewable items I see is 3
(4-1) whereas if the drop list contains 2 items, the actual number of
viewable items I see is 1 (2-1).
I searched through the archive of this list and found that this same
issue was raised before, but couldn't find any replies pertaining to
it.
Is this a "feature" of Forte V2? I tried the same thing with Forte V3
and it does work fine in V3.
Any pointers would be appreciated.
-- Kumar Krishnasami.
p.s:- It doesn't matter how I set the viewable items. I tried both
setting them through the windows workshop as well as in the code
after
the self.Open() in the Display() method. The behavior is the same in
both cases.

I have noticed that Drop List widgets show an initial value equal to
the first value in their Element List. However, this does not seem
to happen as soon as the Drop List is placed inside a grid with a
mapped type. In this case, the drop list shows a blank value
initially. Once a value is selected from the drop down list, it
always has a value.I have found the following behaviour to be true of DropLists with an
object mapped type (ie, TextData as opposed to string): If you
instantiate the mapped attribute in the Init() method (ie,
self.theDroplist = new()), then the DropList will display the first
item in the list as selected when the window comes up. If however, you
do NOT instantiate the mapped attribute, then you get the behaviour you
are observing where the DropList defaults to showing nothing until the
user makes a selection. It's kind of an odd behaviour, but you can
take advantage of it in cases where you want to force something to be
selected by the user, but you don't want an initial default.

How to make hidden Drop Lists functional in RBList Subforms?

I have created a form that contains 3 isolated Radio Button lists, each with hidden subforms that are unique per each button.
Two of my RBLists and subforms work perfectly, showing hidden Drop Down List options and other fields as they should when a button is selected.
However, RBList3 presents the Drop Down lists as user entry fields only. Each hidden subform in RBList3 contains one drop down menu and one text box for instructions.
I've used the same javascript to hide/show hidden fields when buttons are selected. All settings seem to match up. Here is a sample of my code:
if(RBList3.F.rawValue != 2)
    this.presence = "hidden";
    newsubform.presence = "hidden";
else if(RBList3.F.rawValue == 2)
    this.presence = "visible";
    newsubform.presence = "hidden";
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to make my Drop Down Lists in RBList3 show as functional Drop lists?
I have attached the form for reference.

See example #62 on my blog for a 10.1.3 example:

For a tutorial on how to create them using the new features we enable in 11g, see my Oracle Magazine article:

Operations not sorted in the drop list of the web service endpoint

Hello,
Since the beginning of oc4j standalone till the last release 10.1.3.5.0, the operations in the drop list of the web service endpoint are not alphabetically sorted,
they are in a random order.
If a web service contains a lot of operations, it's always difficult to find one operation in the list.
How can this list be sorted ?
I don't see any sort option in the web service properties (in Jdevelopper) or in the deployment descriptor (in Jdevlopper).
Best regards
Laurent

You are correct...the above code is useful only when debugging in Visual Studio. You should have better luck with either of the following two options:
Option 1: Retrieve the id from the response of SaveChanges()
sc.AddToSampleList(new ServiceReference.SampleListItem { Title= "Hello World" });
System.Data.Services.Client.ChangeOperationResponse response = sc.SaveChanges().FirstOrDefault() as System.Data.Services.Client.ChangeOperationResponse;
int id = ((ServiceReference.SampleListItem)((System.Data.Services.Client.EntityDescriptor)response.Descriptor).Entity).Id;
Option 2: Create the list item and access its properties after calling SaveChanges()
ServiceReference.SampleListItem li = new ServiceReference.SampleListItem { Title= "Hello World" };
sc.AddToSampleList(li);
sc.SaveChanges();
int id = li.Id;

Implementing bullet list in JTextPane

I found an example here:
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=4&thread=162662
.. which describes how to create a TextAction for implementing bullet lists with a HTMLEditorKit.
The problem is that I use StyledEditorKit.
Anyone know how to implement a "StyledEditorKit.BulletAction" ?

It amazes me though that this is something that has to be done from scratch ...
Me too!
But it's not too bad, this is how I did it:
1) Add a unicode prefix to represent the bullet:
     if (type.startsWith("CIRCLE"))     liType="\u25CB";
     else if (type.startsWith("DISC"))     liType="\u25CF";
     else if (type.startsWith("SQUARE")) liType="\u25A0";
     doc.insertString(doc.getLength(),liType+" "+liText,null);2) use the FontMetrics to set the outdent:
     FontMetrics     fontmetrics=getFontMetrics(font);
     FLOAT=fontmetrics.stringWidth(doc.getText(start,2));
     StyleConstants.setLeftIndent(aset,50f*listLevel-(listLevel-1)*FLOAT);
     StyleConstants.setFirstLineIndent(aset,-FLOAT);You can see the end-product [url http://home.comcast.net/~viravan/f7.htm]here

How to make table that will include controls such as drop list?

How to make table that will include controls such as drop list?
I need to create table as Property Browser of ActiveX, that include rows with differnt types such as drop list, color, ...

Hi Nadav,
I figured out where I missed your point. When you wrote
table as Property Browser of ActiveX, that include rows with differnt types such as drop list, color, ...
I was thinking mixed data-types in a [2d] table!
Looking at the property browser again it looks like no single LV function can do all of that. It can be developed as a pop-up (like the browser is set-up) and then code all of the elegance using an event structure to control the background color of a string indicator while controling the visability of rings that are only made visable when a mouse down is detected. That will get you pretty close.
So no, my previous response ws not correct for what you are trying to do if you want to duplicate all of the wistles and bells of the property browser pop-up window.
Please forgive my distraction.

Fonts that I dont have on my comuter are showing in FCP text drop list?

Ok I had downloaded a font last year when i was using fcp 6 and when I did a clean instal of my OS I forgot to save it so it got deleted. I never downloaded the font again. So now im using FCP 7 and when I go to enter some text on some footage that font appears in the drop list. I can selected it and apply it to the footage. But I checked my font book and did a search for that font and its not on my computer. so how is this possible?
Message was edited by: Azzie

Depending on how you searched, Finder does not always look at all possible locations.
Fonts can be in the Following directories:
*Macintosh HD/Library/Fonts.* These fonts are installed by applications or the user. Available to all.
*Macintosh HD/System/Library/Fonts.* Installed by Mac OS X. Available to all. Do not tamper with the fonts in this folder.
*Macintosh HD/Users/user name/Library/Fonts.* Installed by and only available to that user account.

How to filter viewobject based drop list ?

Hi all,
I have a drop list based on read only view object that will exist on many jspx.
The view object/drop list must be filtered depending on from which jspx it is called.
So the filtering is done when user enter the page.
How to do that ?
Thank you for your help,

Since I don't know the actual source of your method, I can only guess what exactly is going on in there.
One common mistake people do is creating a new instance of the AM instead of using the existing AM instance that is used in the ADF page - so check if this is the case.
I would recommend that you move up to JDeveloper 10.1.3 which has way better support for JSF and way better documentation on this type of topics - for example in the ADF Developer Guide for 10.1.3 you'll find this topic about accessing the AM from Struts:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B25947_01/bcservices005.htm#sthref684
JDeveloper 10.1.3 has a newer version of ADF that has excellent integration with JSF instead of the old Struts - and it can deploy to an OAS 10.1.2 server:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B25947_01/deployment_topics006.htm#CIHGIAAE
JDeveloper itself is free - so no licensing issues there.
And you are covered in terms of ADF license since you have an OAS license that includes it.

Display author as drop list on advanced search UCM

Hello
Does anyone know if it is possible to have the authors field appear as a drop list on the advanced search screen in 10gR3 UCM?
Thanks

Kyle has a great blog article about changing the Account field, you can probably use the same method for the Author field.
