Insert Selected Rows

Question

Hi :
In my application i have created a check box using html_db collection where i select particular row to insert the data,
What the problem i am facing is i am not able to insert the data the selected one but it will select in a order on which it is dispalyed
ex: if i select from 1 and 3 it will insert 1 and 2 so any idea please suggest how to insert the selected data
the query i am using is
SELECT
HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX(1,ROWNUM) "N",
HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(2,POBJ.NAME,20,20) "NAME"
FROM
PROJECTS PRO,
PROJECT_OBJECTS POBJ,
TEST1_OBJ TST
WHERE
PRO.ID = POBJ.PRO_ID AND
TST."Project Name" = PRO.PROJECT_NAME AND
TST."Object Name" = POBJ.NAME AND
PRO.ID = :P6_PROJECTS
to insert the data
BEGIN
for i in 1..htmldb_application.g_f01.count
loop
INSERT INTO test1
ID,
PROJECTS,
OBJECTS
VALUES
htmldb_application.g_f01(i),
:P6_PROJECTS,
htmldb_application.g_f02(i));
END LOOP;
END;
kinly please sugest me how to do this issue do i have to use some condition ?
Thanks

sudhir,
I would ask have you reviewed the thread I posted above.
In that thread you will find a very detailed description on how to handle what you are doing here.
for me personally to repair your app here I would actually need to work it hands on, sorry.
I can suggest though that you brake the actually query down into to pages in which on the first page
you present the user with items for selection (rows) and after selection they could then redirect
the page to the next one in which the desired results would be presented, these being those which where selected.
That is how I did the what you are attempting here to do. This will allow you to keep the SQL query of your:
Select
HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX
From
Where
seperate from your PL/SQL. Just made it much simplier for me to debug.
Also in my SQL I wrote it somewhat differnet in that I declared the first position as my checkbox
(yes you have done this as well) but I worked it some what different, here is an example:
SELECT DISTINCT
HTMLDB_ITEM.CHECKBOX (1, x.ID) "CHECK",
x.ID,
x.PROJECT_NAME ,
HTMLDB_ITEM.DISPLAY_AND_SAVE(4,POBJ.NAME,20,20) "Object Name",
x.INCOMMING_DOC ,
x.DESIGN ,
x.DESIGN_REVIEW ,
x.DESIGN_REWORK ,
x.BUILD ,
x.BUILD_REVIEW ,
x.BUILD_REWORK ,
x.TEST_CASE_PREP ,
x.TEST_CASE_REVIEW ,
x.TEST_CASE_REWORK ,
x.INSTALLATION_SCRIPT ,
x.UNIT_TESTING ,
x.WAIT_TIME ,
HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(18,NULL,20,50) "Comments",
HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(19,NULL,1,2) "sysdate"
FROM
(select
HTMLDB_ITEM.HIDDEN (1) CHECK,
ID ,
PROJECT_NAME ,
OBJECT_NAME ,
INCOMMING_DOC ,
DESIGN ,
DESIGN_REVIEW ,
DESIGN_REWORK ,
BUILD ,
BUILD_REVIEW ,
BUILD_REWORK ,
TEST_CASE_PREP ,
TEST_CASE_REVIEW ,
TEST_CASE_REWORK ,
INSTALLATION_SCRIPT ,
UNIT_TESTING ,
WAIT_TIME ,
COMMENTS ,
INITIAL_DATE
from
PROJECTS PRO,
PROJECT_OBJECTS POBJ,
INITIAL_EFFORT_OBJECTS IEO
where
PRO.ID = POBJ.PRO_ID
AND IEO."Project Name" = PRO.PROJECT_NAME
AND IEO."Object Name" = POBJ.NAME
)x
This will assign each position into the htmldb_appilcation.g_f01 count
starting at f0(i)1 - f19(i)
You will have to work this a bit more but I would reccomend getting this
first to display and pass data to the next page then first, then you can start working on the PL/SQL
items which as I said is provided in a great example in the posting.
