Inserting fields in dynamic pages at runtime

hi all
i have an order page that have many fields. i have to insert some one or more fields in that page dynamically. those new fields will be created by admin side.
simply one will create some new fields as admin that should be present on some jsp page. i m using struts, websphere framwork.
which technique should I use. xml xslt or some thing else.
thanx

I believe you have to dynamically build the Fields in the JSP, if so then I think you need to have a parser that will read the XML nodes and you will have to get the properties for the fielsds from the Node attributes. I say we can use XML to do this exercise.

How to create a dynamic page from a parameter table at runtime?

I have a table which has the information of item names,types,default values of an input form. Is it possible to create a dynamic page at runtime from these parameters? I saw htmldb_item but what i need is something like attaching athis input form to a dynamic sql with htmldb_item.
Thank you

Oracle supports feedback form metalink was; "What you exactly want to approach is not possible in Htmldb"
I can guess that it is not
exactly possible since I looked at the forums and documantation etc. but
couldnt find anything similar than this link; "http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/htmldb/howtos/tabular_form.h
t". But this is a very common need and I thought that there must be at least a workaround?
How can I talk or write to Html Db development team about this since any ideas, this is very important item in a critial project?
I will be able to satisfy the need in a functional way if I could make the
select lists in the tabular form dynamic with the noz_id;
SELECT vozellik "Ãzellik",
htmldb_item.select_list_from_query(2, t2.nozellik_deger, 'select vdeger
a,vdeger b from tozellik_deger where noz_id = 10') "Select List",
htmldb_item.text(3, NULL, t2.vcihaz_oz_deger) "Free Text"
FROM vcihaz_grup_ozellik t1, tcihaz_oz t2
WHERE t1.noz_id = t2.noz_id
AND t2.ncihaz_id = 191
AND t1.ngrup_id = 5
But what I exactly need i something like this dynamic query;
SELECT
vozellik "Ãzellik",
CASE
WHEN (t2.nozellik_deger IS NULL AND t2.vcihaz_oz_deger IS NOT NULL) THEN
'HTMLDB_ITEM.freetext(' || rownum || ', NULL) ' || vozellik
WHEN (t2.nozellik_deger IS NOT NULL AND t2.vcihaz_oz_deger IS NULL) THEN
'HTMLDB_ITEM.select_list_from_query(' || rownum ||
', NULL, ''select vdeger a,vdeger b from tozellik_deger where noz_id = ' ||
t1.noz_id || ''' ) ' || vozellik
END AS "DeÄer"
FROM vcihaz_grup_ozellik t1, tcihaz_oz t2
WHERE t1.noz_id = t2.noz_id
AND t2.ncihaz_id = 191
AND t1.ngrup_id = 5
Thank you very much,
Best regards.

Inserting data into dynamic internal tables

Hello everyone, i need some suggestions on the following problem:
I have created a dynamic table that consist of storage locations(SL) belonging to a plant. Each record in the internal table would need to display all the SL on the same line. I have succesfully created it and displayed it on an ALV, the problem now is how to insert data for the dynamically created storage locations:
EXAMPLE: Created dynamic itab
colA | colB | SL1 | SL2 | ... | SLn | colC | <--header
data | data | 100 | 120 | ... | 200 | data | <--record
I would like to insert data from the fields of another itab into SL1 to SLn. How can i go about doing it?
Data from ColA to ColC has been filled through:
<i>loop at itab into w_itab.
move-corresponding w_itab to <dyn_tab>.
endloop.</i>
I cannot do the same to the SLs as the fields is dynamically created during runtime and the fieldname is different from the data that i am to insert in into.
Any ideas?

I get a shortdump in the code for the above code. There are diff types of inserts that I am trying to do and each one gives a short dump.
Looking forward to your inputs.
Your program is not applicable in my case as I have ct_value_list passed as a changing parameter of type standard table in my APO BADI.

Form in Dynamic page not working when checkbox is used.

I have created a form using dynamic page. The form most have display fields and a checkbox field. When I check a box, it assigns 'Y' value and when unclick, it assign 'N' to the database field.
When I submit the form, the procedure which is supposed to save the form data never gets executed. Well, at least it says, page not found HTTP 404 error.
Interestingly if I make this field a text box and manually enter 'Y' or 'N', and then submit the form, the procedure is executed. Data gets saved.
Is the checkbox not supposed to be used for a database field because checkbox value can be assigned only using javascript and the procedure never get that value ?
Can you please tell me how to use a checkbox for a database field using dynamic page ?
thanks,
Mainak

Sharmila,
When I said, the form does not get submitted, I meant that the procedure does not work. The form gets submitted but the procedure does not work. It gives HTTP 404 error. That is what perplexes me. I am unable to understand why the procedure does not work when I click a checkbox.
May be you can make this work. I am hopeless about this.

How to retrieve and then update a field in a dynamic page?

I use the dynamic page to retrieve a text field from db table, now I want to update it and save back into the database. The first part(retrieve and display) works fine. But when I put update the table codes inside another oracle tag,it gives me a page not found error. Can you operate on the same database field more than once in a dynamic page?

The purpose is to automatically calculate the transport freight as a percentage of the net amount of the sales order. We are able to retrieve this field even if the sales order has not been posted yet with this formatted search:
Select $[$22.0.0]
Our doubt is that this field is affected also by the item of the expenses that we are going to calculate, this is the reason why we are trying to calculate the line total of each row and in the formatted search exclude the item that have a certain code (i.e. transport freight), in this way we are sure that we are calculating the percentage of the net amount of the goods without the freight.
Thank you for the support.

Dynamically use page number in form field on spawned pages?

I have a form with spawned pages. JS for spawning page(s) works fine. However, one text field on template is driving me nuts. I would like this field ("CaseNum") to dynamically display page number, since page number also corresponds to case number. On templage ("getcase"), I can calculate value for CaseNum using custom calc script (event.value = this.PageNum). But that doesn't work because every spawned page gets the same value (ie, whatever is last spawned page number). I also tried JS below, using P0.getcase.CaseNum as the field on the template in which I want the page number/case number to be displayed:
var oPage = this.pageNum;
this.getField("P" + oPage + ".getcase" + ".CaseNum").value = oPage;
But, this doesn't work either, because the field on the spawned page automatically gets the prefix of P + page number + .getcase appended to the field name. Is there any way to dynamically used page number in a form field on spawned pages? If so, how? Note that while I am trying to use a dynamic case number on spawned pages, it presents the same issue as dynamically displaying page numbers on spawned pages. I'm a JS newbie, so any help appreciated. I've searched high and low on web and in forums and couldn't find the answer. Thx.

Modifying the Field labels dynamically at runtime.

Hi,
Is it possible to change the field labels dynamically at runtime . My
requirement is when the user has to edit the quantity part ,he presses a fn key (F7 in my case ) that is displaying a new field with the old label (quantity ) and old qnty label should be changed dynamically to ' previous quantity ' .
Thanks For Your aniticpated responses.
Message was edited by:
Khaleel S.Mohammed

Have you added teh Label as a text field?
If you have done that, try replacing the label with a Input/Output type field in the display mode by selecting 'Output Only' in the attributes->Program Tab of Screen Painter.
Now from the program , when the user presses F7, you can code to change the value of the Label (Input / Output field).
This will work out. Please let me know if you have any issues.

How to get form fields in a dynamic page as a portlet

I have a dynamic page(publish as portlet and added to a portal page) with a html form that has many radio button created dynamically (query a table and create as many radio button as records I found) and the name of each radio button is the id of the record from the table it represents.
When I click the submit button of my form it will recall the same portal page and then I have to check which radio buttons where selected to update the database depending on it.
The problem is that I can't get the radio buttons inside the dynamic page because they are created dynamically so I can't make them portlet parameters to be associated with page parameters.
So How can I tell which radio buttons have been selected?
Please help me.

Hi,
Write a procedure which will be called as the form action. This procedure should take an array of parameters like p_arg_names and p_arg_values. For example
<html>
<form>
<input type="checkbox" name="p_radio">
<input type="checkbox" name="p_radio">
</form>
procedure submit_form(p_radio in wwv_utl_api_types.vc_arr)
begin
for i in 1..p_radio.count
loop
htp.p(p_radio(i));
end loop;
wwv_redirect.url(<page_url>);
end;
Hope that helps.
Thanks,

Inserting a value from page field into an xml file

Hi there,
I have added a field 'Comments' on a create vacancy page.
There are other fields on that page and the values from those fields are getting stored in an xml file.
This xml file is getting stored in TRANSACTION_DOCUMENT column of table HR_API_TRANSACTIONS.
Is it possible to add the value from the field (that I've added on the page) into the same xml file?
If yes, please tell me how
and if no, tell me what should I do to store that value.
Regards,
Gaurav.

Hi Gaurav,
You need to check in seeded files for the logic of generation of XML file and setting it in DB column. May be in PLSQL API this code would exist.
Once you get that logic you can append your column value in XML tag (need to create new tag) if you are allowed to modify seeded API. Otherwise use free additional attributes of the table.
Hope I am clear.

How to make fields grow dynamically within the same page and in column wise

Hi,
Like the newspaper format: Where contents of news are shown columns wise.
We need to make the fields in a page grow column wise within that same page.
For example, in a page:
Column 1 Column 2
ASDASDASDGKASHDGKAA | ASDFASGFHSJFAJKSD
ASDFASDFASDJFASGJKDFHA | ASDFASDASDFASDFASD
AFSDFASDFASDHGFKASDFASD | ASDFASDFASDFASDFASDFA
ASDFSDGFJASHDGFJKASHDGKFAS |
ASDFAGASDHFKASHDGFHASDJKFHASJKHF |
ASDFHASGDKFASDJGHFASDFJKSDGFJKAGSDJ |
If the Column 1 is full with the fields in the page it should start filling the column 2 which is also in the same page.
If the Column 2 is also full then only it should move to the next page and should continue the same scenario.
Please suggest a better way to do this in the Adobe Output Designer.
Thanks and regards,
Gurunath V.
E-Mail: [email protected]
P.S: Please also mail to my e-mail ID.

Hi Gurunath, if you steel need a solution on this problem, I think this could help:
1- place two fields on the form (JF01, JF02), one under each other.
2- Make two subform with them (Sline1, Sline2)
3- Make the field JF02 expand on same subform.
4- Modify the preamble in this way:
^define group:D_line1 \field$POSITION\reserve"0.333",in\subformSline1.\positionsave,"first_line"
^define group:JF01!OnOverflow \groupG_Sline2.\fieldJF02.
^define group:G_Sline2!OnBOF \positionrestore,"first_line"\positionright,"3.65",in
In the data file put all the text in JF01.
-The first line say:
When JF01 is called, save it's y position (\positionsave,"first_line")
-The second line means:
when the text overflow JF01 put it in JF02.
(cause JF02 overflow on itself all the remaining data is overflowed in JF02)
-The third line means:
if JF02 arrives at the end of the page (OnBOF), restore the saved position ( \positionrestore,"first_line") and move to the right of "3,65" inches (\positionright,"3.65",in).
In other words, when JF02 arrive at the and of the age, the next field JF02 is positioned at the same height of JF01 and is shifted on the right
Take care that in this way JF02 cannot anymore go o a new page.
Hope this help.

How to fill a field in a page attribute structure

Hi
We're trying to build a BSP Application (Pages with flow logic). One of the BSP Pages is a search for customer data, with search fields displayed dynamically.
Now Im trying to fill the fields of structure "ls_partner", which is defined as a page attribute. However, it always is initial at onInputProcessing. It works well for normal page attributes (like strings etc.), but not with fields of a structure.
I found the following on sdn:
If firstname is a field in a structure called myaddress of the type address, you can access firstname in the layout as follows:
<input type=text name="myaddress.firstname">
This doesn't seem to work though. Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot!
Philipp

Hi Phil,
I assume by "fill the fields of a structure" you mean by passing the parameters as form field or HTTP header parameters.
I don't believe you can do this. You can only pass parameters that map to a page attribute that is a data element like STRING, INT4, MATNR, etc.
If you need to pass an entire structure you probabaly need to pass each individual element as a separate paramater, or else pack the structure into a string field and then parse it to extract the individual elements at runtime.

Query for inserting data from OAF page to database table

I need to insert a row into a table by getting parameters from pageContext. The fields in this page are from multiple view objects and the data in these fields should be inserted into a table. If anyone can provide solution in this regard will be very much helpful.

Hi Rma,
My Understanding is...
Say you want to display information of 10 customers. Hence there will be 10 rows to display.
Say number 5 customer has maximum accounts 15 (In case there is variable number of accounts for each customer). Hence there will be max 15 columns.If the above under standing is correct, then a question...is there an upper limit on number of accounts for a customer?
If yes then I may say...
Create a custom table with that many columns as of max number of alloweed accounts.
Write a plsql api to insert column of existing table as row in the custom table.
Now base your EOs and VOs on that custom table. That may show columns in term of rows on your screen.
The logic is, instead of converting column data to row in oaf, do it in plsql.
Now again if it has to be updated by user, create a reverse api to put data from custom table to existing table.
However, this approach can lack automatic features on existing seeded table(like validations), provided by EO. Hence you must explore PL/SQL Entity objects in Dev guide before going with this approach (both are near same but you may be able to better judge which one will be more suitable for your need.
Another insant approach which strike in mind is just modifying logic in controller to modify bean hierarchy (adding columns at run time) or by create VO dynamically.
However, possibly that can put other complexities of personalization and maintainance of code etc.
Hence the suggestion is...Evaluate all three and judge which one is most suitable for you over all needs (First try with PL/SQL Base EOs Or with the above approach or pure java manipulation)
Seems too complex approaches all. Other users must pour there thoughts.

Cannot find procedures with dynamic pages

Hi all,
I have a problem with dynamic pages. cannot find procedures.
This is the content of a a dynamic page (example):
<HTML>
<ORACLE>
begin
htp.print(htf.bold(‘Fill in field values and use the push button to buy ticket’));
htp.br;
htp.formOpen(‘NETU.BUY_TICKETS’);

htp.br;
htp.teletype(‘Card #_______:’);
htp.formText(‘p_cc_number’,10,10);
htp.br;
htp.formSubmit(NULL,’Buy Ticket’);
htp.formClose;
end;
</ORACLE>
<HTML>
and try to call to this procedure ‘NETU.BUY_TICKETS’ for save form data in BD:
begin
insert into tickets (id, eventid, no_of_tickets,cc_type,cc_number, trans_date) values (p_id, p_eventid, p_no_of_tickets, p_cc_type, p_cc_number, sysdate);
exception when others then htp.print(‘SQL Error Message:’||substr(SQLERRM,1, 200));
end;
All compiled fine.
The problem exact is when i submit the form, cannot find procedure.
In browser address show this -> http://portal:7778/pls/portal/NETU.BUY_TICKETS
and in the body...

mmm ... what's wrong? where is the log? i find a lot...

I have tried your code and it works for me . Here are the steps and codes I have used to stimulate your process
1. Created the procedure
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE p_buy_tickets (p_id in number, p_eventid in number, p_no_of_tickets in number, p_cc_type in varchar2, p_cc_number in number) IS
BEGIN
htp.print('Processed Successfully');
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
htp.print('SQL Error Message:'||substr(SQLERRM,1, 200));
END p_buy_tickets;
2. Granted 'Execute' privilge on this procedure to Public.
3. Created a dynamic page with the following code (same as yours except the schema):
<HTML>
<ORACLE>begin
htp.print(htf.bold('Fill in field values and use the push button to buy ticket'));
htp.br;
htp.formOpen('MY_SCHEMA.P_BUY_TICKETS');
htp.teletype('Student Id___:');
htp.formText('p_id',5,5);
htp.br;
htp.teletype('Event Id_____:');
htp.formText('p_eventid',5,5);
htp.br;
htp.teletype('# of Tickets_:');
htp.formText('p_no_of_tickets',5,5);
htp.br;
htp.teletype('Credit Card');
htp.br;
htp.teletype('AMEX,MC,VISA_:');
htp.formText('p_cc_type',5,5);
htp.br;
htp.teletype('Card #_______:');
htp.formText('p_cc_number',10,10);
htp.br;
htp.formSubmit(NULL,'Buy Ticket');
htp.formClose;
end;
</ORACLE>
<HTML>
4. I got the message 'Processed Successfully' when I ran the dynamic page and submitted the form.
You may need to check how you declared parameters in the procedure and how you supplied values when you run the procedure. In this case, I created the procedure with "No Default" value for all parameters , so I have to supply value for all parameters in the form otherwise I will encounter the 'Page Not Found' error.
Hope this helps!.
Thanks

In a dynamic page how to share variable between PL/SQL and javascript

For example, my dynamic page contains such PL/SQL codes:
<ORACLE>
DECLARE
info varchar(100);
rowid urowid;
procedure doDelete(
row_id in urowid
) IS
begin
Delete From xxx
WHERE rowid = row_id;
end doDelete;
BEGIN
Select name, rowid INTO info, rowid
From xxx Where xxx;
HTP.PRN(' <INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="show value" onClick="alert(info);">');
HTP.PRN(' <INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="delete" onClick="doDelete(_row_id);">');
END;
</ORACLE>
The variable 'info' and '_row_id' are correct, however the two HTP. sentence do not work. What's the problem?
What I want to do is to show all the records in TABLE A in a page. And at the end of each line (record), there' re a 'delete' and a 'update' button to let user operate on this record. Is this possible? I know form can do delete an update, but it can not show all the records in a page like what report does. Besides dynamic page, is there any other better choice? Report can do it?
One more question. In a report, I employed link on one field to a second report. It works well. But I want to open the second report in a new window when the link is click. Is this possible?
I was almost driven crazy by these :( I so appreciate if anyone can help.

The code written by you is insufficient for the funtionality you are trying to achieve. Below is a method to achieve the same.
Note: Used standard scott.emp table for the example which is located in my db provider schema.
Do the below modifications as per your local configuration
xxxxx -> Replace it with your Portal schema
yyyyy -> Replace it with your db provider schema
<<module_id_of_form>> -> Replace with the module id of form created in step 1 & 2.
First and foremost... oracle does not allows variables starting with '_'. So if you want to use it you have to place it in double quotes ("")
rowid -> illegal
"_row_id" -> legal.
However, I will advice you not to use variable names starting with "_".
Now lets get started...
1. Create a form on the table you are using in the dynamic page. Just have the update button. Remove the other buttons.
2. Get the module id of this form. Instruction for getting the module id:
a) Right-click on the form's run link and copy the shortcut
b) Get the value of p_moduleid parameter. This is your module id.
3. Create a procedure "save_action_details" in your db provider schema. This procedure will accomplish the delete operation on the record.
     CREATE OR REPLACE Procedure save_action_details(
     p_rowid IN VARCHAR2,
     p_action IN VARCHAR2,
     p_dyn_ref_path IN VARCHAR2,
     p_dyn_page_url IN VARCHAR2)
     is
     l_sto_session xxxxx.wwsto_api_session;
     begin
     l_sto_session := xxxxx.wwsto_api_session.load_session(
     p_domain => 'DynStore',
     p_sub_domain => 'DynStore_' || p_dyn_ref_path
     l_sto_session.set_attribute(
     p_name => 'rowid',
     p_value => p_rowid
     l_sto_session.set_attribute(
     p_name => 'action',
     p_value => p_action
     l_sto_session.save_session;
     htp.init;
     owa_util.redirect_url(p_dyn_page_url);
     end save_action_details;
Explaination: The above procedure creates a session and keeps the rowid and action in the session. This information is used by the below dynamic form to perform the necessary action. In our exampl, the action is always going to be delete so you may go ahead and hard code it, else leave it as it is.
4. Grant execute privilege on the procedure "save_action_details" to public.
sql> grant execute on save_action_details to public;
5. Create your Dynamic page.
a) In HTML code section have the below code. This code shows some columns from the table and "update" and "delete" buttons to perform the respective action.
     <ORACLE>select empno,ename,rowid,
     '<input type="button" value="Update" onClick="doAction(this.form,''UPD'',''xxx'','''
     || xxxxx.wwv_standard_util.url_encode(rowid) || '''); tWin();">
     <input type="button" value="delete" onclick="doAction(this.form,''DEL'',''' || rowid || ''',''xxx'');">' Action
     from yyyyy.emp</ORACLE>
b) In additional pl/sql code section of dynamic page, have the below pl/sql block "in after displaying the header" section.
     declare
     l_sto_session xxxxx.wwsto_api_session;
     l_del_rowid varchar2(20);
     l_action varchar2(10);
     begin
     htp.comment('User code starts here ...');
     htp.p('<script>');
     htp.p('var winHandle;');
     htp.p('
     function doAction(formObj, action, rowid, erowid)

Explaination: The session information (rowid and action) stored by "save_action_details" procedure is retrieved by the dynamic page and is used to delete the record.
6. Once you are through with the above steps, test it by placing the above "dynamic page" portlet on a page.
a) When you click on delete button the record gets deleted and the automatically refreshed page will not show the deleted record.
b) On clicking update button, a form will appear. do the necessary modifications in data and click update. the data in the form gets updated. Once you close the form the dynamic page gets refreshed automatically and it will show you the updated information.

Duplicate a Text Field on Every Page of a Document?

Today I wrote my first vb.net/adobe app. I managed to open the pdf doc in adobe and create a named text field. I managed to insert a java script that gets the current date when the document is open and updates the text field. I would like to duplicate the text field on all pages of the document. Manually, I can right click on a text field and select duplicate. I don't see a property or method that allows me to program this. The field property "page" appears to be read only. any help would be appreciated. thanks.
page
The page number or an array of page numbers of a field. If the field has only one appearance in the document, the page property returns an integer representing the 0-based page number of the page on which the field appears. If the field has multiple appearances, it returns an array of integers, each member of which is a 0-based page number of an appearance of the field. The order in which the page numbers appear in the array is determined by the order in which the individual widgets of this field were created (and is unaffected by tab-order). If an appearance of the field is on a hidden template page, page returns a value of -1 for that appearance.
TypeInteger | ArrayAccessRFieldsallExample 1Determine whether a particular field appears on one page, or more than one page.var f = this.getField("myField");
if (typeof f.page == "number")
console.println("This field only occurs once on page " + f.page);
else
console.println("This field occurs " + f.page.length + " times);

I also tried the brute force method of moving from page to page and creating a text field on each page. I used pageNum to changes the page, but, adobe didn't seem to recognize that. I saw the page change on the screen, but, all of the textfields were created on the first page!
