Is is possible to capture the url in a variable.. I will explain

I need to get the user name which will be in the url location in my situation and put it in the apex_public_user var.
Is this possible, thanks,
Doug

user will log in using a Business Objects , we are using the user name password for that, then we link to an apex page while that are logged in
the url
is something like
Https://udyx/login/login.do?HTTP_IV_User=williamdblincoe
Right now we are making 100's of applications, one each for each user, stupid i know, a seporate link to each apex program.
If I could just get the name located in the url, it would solve the problem, thanks, Doug

  • Is it possible to change the URL of an application?

    Hi All,
              I was working with the oracle apex and created few applications almost a year back, due to my higher studies there is a gap with the tool..and finally I am in.
    Am planning to create an application which will be similar like a personal website.My doubt here is ..whether it's possible to change the URL by keeping a simple one which includes my name also
    instead of having this big..
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=10221:1:116416608594529
    I can understand that the whole URL describes the appln no,page no and session ID but its my doubt possible or not..If possible then how to proceed?
    Thanks

    If you are just looking for a nice and short URL to start your application, why not just use a URL shortener service like goo.gl ?
    Just put in your long URL and it will create a nice and short URL for you... for example, the above URL is now http://goo.gl/FijYxn

  • Possible to know the URL of page while within the working iWeb on desktop?

    Is it possible to know the URL of any page in a website by looking at the working iWeb copy on the desktop? I made my website over a year ago and used iWeb '06 and cannot remember that far back. Now I am using iWeb '08. I keep getting SORRY messages when I hit the VISIT button.
    This is making me nervous.

  • Is it possible to change the URL of an iTunes Podcast page itself (NOT the Feed URL)?

    My company has an usual question:
    While keeping all the individual podcasts the same, and the subject matter of the whole podcast series the same, my company would like to change the URL that Apple iTunes has assigned us.  Is this possible, and how can it be done?
    Again, I am talking about the URL that Apple iTunes has assigned us.  The one that begins:
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/career-...
    We are having a small change in marketing emphasis.  So my company wants to change one of the dashed English words in the URL, after:
    http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/
    These English words were based on the original title of our podcast.  The original title of our podcast has changed slightly, with no problem.  Now my company just wants to change the URL assigned to us by Apple.
    Let me emphasize: There is no purpose of misdirection, evasion, or deceit here -- not in the slightest.  My company is simply taking a different marketing angle.  Our category is staying the same.  The podcasts themselves are staying the same.  My company would just like to update the URL assigned to us by Apple to reflect our new podcast series name.
    ALSO:
    We are a category-leading, very popular podcast.  If we do change our iTunes podcast URL, we do not at all want to jeopardize our leading status in our podcast subject category.  We want all our download stats to move with us over to the new URL.  This is extremely important to us.
    AND FURTHER:
    If we do change our iTunes podcast URL, we want all our listeners to automatically find us at the new URL.  We don't want any of them to lose their subscription because we changed our URL.
    So in summary:
    1. CAN we change our podcast URL (the one assigned to us by iTunes)?
    2. Can we change the URL, but still keep our category-leading position and stats, exaclty as they are now?  That is, will our old download stats move with us to the new URL, so we can retain our category-leading position?
    3. Will podcast listeners going to the old URL automatically be forwarded to the new URL?  Might any of our current listeners become unsubscribed as a result of the URL change?
    I know this is an unusual, complicated, and multi-part question.  I am looking for definitive, authoritative answers to all these questions.
    Thank you very much for your help!!
    David

    You can omit the title altogether in the URL (together with the succeeding slash, of course). For example, my own podcast URL in the Store is
    https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-sound-of-78s/id166389425?mt=2
    but this works perfectly well:
    https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/id166389425
    Indeed you can even put your own title:
    https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/any_old_title/id166389425
    So it's as simple as that!

  • Is it possible to change the URL of the browser corresponding to changes in the timeline?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to create a whole website in Edge. Is it possible to change the browser URL for different sections of the animation. For example me.com/part1 leads to 2.0 seconds in the animation. And for example when you type me.com/part2 the browser would go to 4th second of the animation. And vice versa, when the animation reaches the 4th second the browser URL would change to me.com/part2. It would be really great if that were possible. Any ideas on how to accomplish it?
    Thanks!

    Hi there, Joel's example seems to be exactly what you're trying to do. All you need to do is replace his functions with your functions.
    There are two main parts to his example: 1) reacting to a URL change directly in the URL bar, 2) reacting to a button click, and setting the URL
    Regarding Item 1: this line (this adds a listener for when the URL hash is changed, and calls the 'sym.animate' function in his example). Note that he is linking the value after the # with the symbol names 'panel1', etc. This line enables the functionality for you to be able to directly change the URL to: testStep95.html#panel2, and the site will change pages.
    $(window).on("hashchange", function(){sym.animate(location.hash.replace("#",""), sym.onStage)});
    Regarding Item 2: he's setting the page title (based on the active panel symbol) and URL hash, in the  'sym.animate' function. He calls the 'sym.animate' function on click of btn1, btn2, btn3:
    document.title = panelIn;
    window.location.hash = panelIn;
    Props to Joel for his slick example!

  • Is it possible to get the URL from which user came to Apex Application?

    Hi,
    I have 1 web site which is created by Apex. And I have to create similar sites with slight differences. For example, even though the contents are almost same, each telephone # have to be modified.
    So, if possible, I want to use only 1 web site and depending on the URL from which user came, change some information on the page. Is it possible?
    And if it is possible, what if the user set Apex URL as favorite and visit it after some days?

    Thank you Scott,
    This is the one.
    But I have another issue.
    If a user comes to our page from their link directly, I can identify where he come from. But if he added our site to Bookmark and comes to our site through the link, is it possible to identify his original route?
    If it is impossible, I will create other Apex Application and put each URL to the link in order to catch where the user is from.

    Hi Cristina,
    Please check the following article with using web service UserProfileService.asmx to get the current user profile in InfoPath code behind and use the validating event to do some complex validation, it should help.

  • Is it possible to capture the state of a button outside of capturing events?

    I was wondering if there was a way in Flex to determine the state of a button (i.e. up, down, over, selected, etc..) besides capturing each individual events.  What I am asking is essentially to be able to access the "phase" private member variable of the Button class.  Please advise.

    Actually, nevermind, I was mistaken that the Button.phase parameter was private, it is actually of mx_internal type.  Thanks.

  • Is it possible to change the URL of displaytag's sortable function?

    Basically, I've got a jsp page with the displaytag code on it such as:
    <display:table name="result">
    <display:column sortable="true" property="title" />
    <display:column sortable="true" property="author" />
    <display:column sortable="true" property="status" />
    <display:column sortable="true" property="location" />
    <display:column property="image" />
    </display:table>
    The way it loads the data is that in a servlet, a line of code creates the arraylist called "result", and passes that through the HTTP header onto the jsp. The jsp gets it and displaytag handles it. However, whenever I click one of the sortable headings, none of the data is found because the jsp currently needs to have the arraylist sent to it from a servlet. Clicking a sort link doesn't go through a servlet, just adds some arguments.
    Is there a way to change the sortable URL to go back through a servlet and then add the sorting code (which is something usually like ?d-49653-s=0&d-49653-o=2&d-49653-p=1)?
    Thanks

  • Is it possible to alter the URL address displayed in my browser?

    Hello Everyone
    I work in Special FX for a TV show largely in computer graphics.  I specialize in Maya, Photoshop, Illustratro and AutoCad.  However I have a little Dreamweaver experience and got roped into a new project.
    Here is the effect I need.
    Someone surfing the web.
    I've built a website, uploaded it and it works great.  The only problem is our legal department won't let the URL display my website.  I have to display one that is not a registered domain.
    Is there any way to display an alternate URL in the address bar?  A fake one, so to speak?
    This website will be displayed on a iPad tablet running safari.
    Thanks in advance.
    -D

    >I have to display one that is not a registered domain.
    >Is there any way to display an alternate URL in
    >the address bar?  A fake one, so to speak?
    No. You can't fool a browser into displaying a url that does not exist in the address bar. It must reference a page on a registered domain - or an ip address -  but not a fake url. You could have a frame hosted at on one domain reference a page from another domain - but the source url is still not hidden. What exactly are you trying to do here?

  • Is possible to change The URL of a SAP Portal ?

    I have a large URL for a SAP Portal. 
    http://sikpbj.grup-sig.corp:52100/irj/portal
    The end-user wants a short URL.    http://BI_Estrategico
    I don´t have experience with Portals
    Somebody could help me, pls,
    What i need to do ?

    Hi,
    By default, URLs in the portal are shortened, with the navigation target converted (hashed) into a short GUID.
         http://myServer:54000/irj/portal 
    NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content/every_user/general/eu_role/com.sap.portal.portal_personalization/com.sap.portal.persoUserMapping.
         A short version of the URL might be the following, with the navigation target hashed and shortened:
    http://myServer:54000/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=navurl://b3d6d9ebac16a46574d62757803b05d4
         Go to SystemAdministration->Navigation->ShortUrls(it is in detailed navigation area)->from here you can select Short URLs for custom roles.
         Give the Shorturl as NavigationTarget.
    Refer this blog
    <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/2452">Short URL</a>
    You can also use Quick links for iView and pages

  • Possible to capture the delimiter with split(String, regex)?

    If StringTokenizer is frowned on, is it possilble to capture the delimiter in the string array when using split()?

    In Perl, all you have to do is put parentheses around the regex to have the delimiters returned as tokens. I can understand why the Sun devs left that feature out, though: it would make split's behavior twice as confusing as it already is. Anyway, I can't think of a better way to do it than your lookaround method, Sabre.
    If StringTokenizer is frowned on,
    Says who?Says the docs, actually. They say to use split() instead, as if it were a drop-in replacement for StringTokenizer. Then they confuse people even more by implying that split("\\s") is equivalent to the default behavior of StringTokenizer (it should be split("\\s+")). I submitted a bug report about that, but they didn't want to hear it.

  • Is it possible to disable the URL field's Autofill feature?

    Safari is employing some type of autofill when I type in the URL field.
    I have tried clearing my history, because I notice the suggestions that appear are websites I have surfed to before. Clearing history has no effect.
    This is a really annoying feature. Is there any way to disable it?

    I guess in the scheme of things, this is not something Apple considers a priority. I and others have made the suggestion before via the Report Bugs to Apple selection in the Safari Menu. Consider doing the same. In the meantime, the spacebar is your only ally here.
