Is it possible - "pust enter key" and "execute go button"

Hi guys,
I want to execute the go button when I push the enter key from keyboard...
Is it possible?
Regards.

hi mate - i think i know what you're trying to do... you're trying to "set focus" on the GO button so on "enter" the go button automatically fires off.
couple of problems with this (from what i see).
1. if you have multiple prompts on the dashboard then you have more than one "GO" button to click on... which one should you default to?
2. targeting the Go button using javascript would be a custom job and burn time, traversing the DOM to find the right "GO" button to set focus on....
... if possible I would just say "it can't be done" to the end user... is that an option?

Problem with Enter key and JOptionPane in 1.4

Hi,
I had a problem with an application I was working on.
In this application, pressing [Enter] anywhere within the focused window would submit the information entered into the form that was contained within the frame.
The application would then try to validate the data. If it was found to be invalid, it would pop up a JOptionPane informing the user of that fact.
By default, pressing [Enter] when a JOptionPane is up will activate the focused button (in most cases, the [OK] button) thus dismissing the dialog.
In JDK 1.3 this worked fine. But in JDK 1.4, this has the result of dismissing the dialog and opping it up again. This is because the [Enter] key still works on the frame behind the JOptionPane and thus tries to validate it again, which results in another invalid dialog msg popping up.
The only way to get out is to use the mouse or the Esc key.
Now, in the application I put in a workaround that I was not very happy with. So, to make sure it wasn't the application itself, I created a test which demonstrates that it still misbehaves.
Here it is.

          button.getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW).put(enterKey, "test");
          button.getActionMap().put("test", action);
          contents.add(field);
          contents.add(button);
          frame.pack();
          frame.setVisible(true);
}Does anyone have any solution to this problem?

I know that focus management has changed alot.
Based on my experimentation a while back, in 1.4 it still believes that the JFrame is the window in focus, even though a JOptionPane is currently in front of it (unless I misinterpreted what was going on). Thus, the frame seems to get the keyboard event and re-invoke the action.

Skip Enter Key and focus a field

Hi All
I need to :
1) skip pressing the enter key to refresh the screen after selecting a ralio button
2) focus a paticular field after selecting a radio button
Please tell me the tricks to perform these - I have looked up the help and SDN for these - but sofar - not much useful info found
Thanks in advance.

Hi Liem,

Re: Set Variant in Program

Use Enter key to execute report.

I have a report that needs to be executed in background.It has a selection screen.The program should get executed when user presses 'ENTER' while he is inside the selection screen.At present,when 'ENTER' key is pressed,only validation is done.To execute we are either pressing 'F8' key or click execute button in screen.
Now how to trap the 'ENTER' key press in a report?

Hi Jayaprakash,
All PAI processing will depend on the Function Code that has been triggered at the selection screen.
The ENTER key has no function code, whereas the "Execute" button has the function code 'ONLI'. SO what can be done is, when the user hits the ENTER key, we can programmatically set the function code to 'ONLI'. I shall give you a very small peice of code to illustrate my point.
===================================
tables sscrfields.
parameters p_vblen like vbak-vbeln obligatory.
at selection-screen.
if sscrfields-ucomm eq space.
sscrfields-ucomm = 'ONLI'.
endif.
start-of-selection.
write p_vblen.
===================================
The above code will trigger the report output on hitting the ENTER key at the selection screen.
What you only have to note here is that unlike with screen processing, in selection-screen processing, the function code will be made available in the field UCOMM of the structure SSCRFIELDS. However, you will have to declare this structure in your program ( using the TABLES statement as shown above ).
Hope the explanation has been clear enough to drive the point home for you. Please get back to me otherwise.

I removed the ENTER key and can't get it back on

Hi,
Approximately 2 months ago i removed a few keys off my Macbook Pro to clean them. I managed to replace all of them except for the ENTER key.
Underneath the casing there are 2 plastic bases which scissor. These bases attach via hooks on the main keyboard. I managed to get one back on but i can't get the other base back on. The enter key itself still works but without the housing on top.
Went i went to the genius bar i was told because t was out of warranty they would charge me or if i went back to the retailer (Tesco) they would fix it within the 6 year european consumer law. The genius said that he could see it had not been mistreated and it shouldn't be a problem. When i consequently called Tesco they told me they wouldn't as it was user damage and that i should go back to Apple because when Tesco arrange repairs they get Apple to do them anyway.
Im a little tired of heading backward and forward between the two companies and no one is helping. I just want my key back on.
I have a mid 2012 Macbook Pro. i5 Processor, 4GB Ram, 500GB HDD.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.<br />

Clearing the history causes the enter key and search button not to work

If I clear my history and set my browser to never remember or suggest websites, the search button doesn't work. I can click on it but nothing happens. In addition, if I simply use the enter key from my keyboard, that doesn't work either. I have to reset firefox and then the new version will work (but if I go back and change all my history settings again and then it stops working). Please help.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

Enter key and GridControl !!

I need to go to the next cell in the same row when Enter is pressed. Any ideas as to how to do it. By default pressing the Enter key will move the row selection down. I would like to change this.

hi gina,
as stated above if you have a text field and this is the only item on the page then the browser default behaviour is to submit the page if the user hits enter.
if the search item is not the only item on the page then the browser will not submit the page but treat the item as a normal text item.
so if you want the user to be able to submit the page by hitting enter after filling the field then use the item with submit item type.

How to use enter key instead of save button in tabular form?

Hello,
is there a way to save data entered into a tabular form by clicken enter instead of "submit/save" button?
We got it working for normal forms but not for tab. forms
Regards
Friedrich

Hi Friedrich,
try to enter
onkeypress="return submitEnter(this,event)"into "Element Attributes" of your tabular form column.
If you hit enter, the page will be submitted with request set to the id of the tabular form column.

Possible bug with TREAT and EXECUTE IMMEDIATE

Hello, i experienced a strange behavior which seems to be a bug.
Consider following definitions:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE T_Base FORCE AS OBJECT (
DummyProperty NUMBER
) NOT FINAL;
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE T_Child UNDER T_Base (
AnotherDummyProperty NUMBER
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION SpecificValidation (iValue T_Child) RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
-- some specific validation is done here, not important for the example
RETURN NULL;
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE ValidateIt (iValue T_Child) IS
lResult NUMBER;
BEGIN
-- The principle used here is that each client can have its own implementation of validation function, and when it does not exist, we do not care.
-- In reality we put functions and procedures into packages, I narrowed it to a minimal working example.
BEGIN
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'BEGIN :lResult := SpecificValidation(:iValue); END;'
      USING OUT lResult, IN iValue;
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
    IF INSTR(SQLERRM, 'PLS-00201') = 0 THEN
      RAISE;
    END IF;
END;
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Process (iValue T_Base) IS
BEGIN
-- in fact we know that iValue must be of typ T_Child, it is checked using IS OF ( ) operator and exception is raised if this check fails
-- This does not work for some reason.
-- It fails in EXECUTE IMMEDIATE with PLS-00306. I don't really get why, because ValidateIt accepts a value of type T_Child and it passes it to the validation procedure, which also expects value of type T_Child.
ValidateIt(TREAT(iValue AS T_Child));
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE Process2 (iValue T_Base) IS
lChild T_Child;
BEGIN
-- The only difference here is that result of TREAT is saved to a variable.
-- This works as expected.
lChild := TREAT(iValue AS T_Child);
ValidateIt(lChild);
END;
In reality it is much more complex, I narrowed it to a minimal working example.
Now when running this:
DECLARE
lItem T_Base := T_Child(5, 2);
BEGIN
BEGIN
    -- This call will end up with PLS-00306 error.
    Process(lItem);
    dbms_output.put_line('Process completed successfully.');
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
    dbms_output.put_line('Exception when calling Process.');
    dbms_output.put_line(SQLERRM);
    dbms_output.put_line(DBMS_UTILITY.FORMAT_ERROR_BACKTRACE);
END;
BEGIN
    Process2(lItem);
    dbms_output.put_line('Process2 completed successfully.');
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
    dbms_output.put_line('Exception when calling Process2.');
    dbms_output.put_line(SQLERRM);
    dbms_output.put_line(DBMS_UTILITY.FORMAT_ERROR_BACKTRACE);
END;
END;
then call to Process fails with PLS-00306 on EXECUTE IMMEDIATE.
The only difference between Process and Process2 is that in Process2, result of TREAT is saved to a variable of type T_Child.
Is this behavior documented somwhere or is it a bug?

That's interesting. I would say it is, or should be, a bug.
Also interesting is, when I re-write your example to eliminate dynamic SQL and instead rely on dynamic method dispatch, the problem goes away... first, the changes:
drop type T_Child;
drop type T_Base
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE T_Base FORCE AS OBJECT (
DummyProperty NUMBER
) NOT FINAL
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE T_Child UNDER T_Base (
AnotherDummyProperty NUMBER
create or replace type T_Base_Processor as object (
dummyProperty    number
, static FUNCTION GetClientProcessor(iClientId varchar2) RETURN T_Base_Processor
, member FUNCTION SpecificValidation (iValue T_Child) RETURN NUMBER
, member PROCEDURE ValidateIt (iValue T_Child)
, member PROCEDURE Process (iValue T_Base)
, member PROCEDURE Process2 (iValue T_Base)
) NOT FINAL
create or replace type T_Another_Processor under T_Base_Processor (
overriding member FUNCTION SpecificValidation (iValue T_Child) RETURN NUMBER
create or replace type body T_Base_Processor
is
static FUNCTION GetClientProcessor(iClientId varchar2) RETURN T_Base_Processor IS
BEGIN
return    case
        when upper(iClientId) = 'ADMINISTRATOR' then
            new T_Another_Processor(null)
        else
            new T_Base_Processor(null)
        end;
END;
member FUNCTION SpecificValidation (iValue T_Child) RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
-- some specific validation is done here, not important for the example
dbms_output.put_line('T_Base_Processor.SpecificValidation');
RETURN NULL;
END;
member PROCEDURE ValidateIt (iValue T_Child) IS
lResult NUMBER;
BEGIN
-- No more need for dynamic SQL, instead rely on dynamic dispatch
lResult := SpecificValidation(iValue);
END;
member PROCEDURE Process (iValue T_Base) IS
BEGIN
-- in fact we know that iValue must be of typ T_Child, it is checked using IS OF ( ) operator and exception is raised if this check fails
-- This does not work for some reason.
-- It fails in EXECUTE IMMEDIATE with PLS-00306. I don't really get why, because ValidateIt accepts a value of type T_Child and it passes it to the validation procedure, which also expects value of type T_Child.
ValidateIt(TREAT(iValue AS T_Child));
END;
member PROCEDURE Process2 (iValue T_Base) IS
lChild T_Child;
BEGIN
-- The only difference here is that result of TREAT is saved to a variable.
-- This works as expected.
lChild := TREAT(iValue AS T_Child);
ValidateIt(lChild);
END;
end;
create or replace type body T_Another_Processor
is
overriding member FUNCTION SpecificValidation (iValue T_Child) RETURN NUMBER
is
begin
-- some other specific validation is done here, not important for the example
-- You could even call the overridden method as well using
--   treat(self as T_Base_Processor).SpecificValidation(iValue)
dbms_output.put_line('T_Another_Processor.SpecificValidation');
RETURN NULL;
end;
end;
And again with slight modifications, your test block:
DECLARE
lProcessor T_Base_Processor := T_Base_Processor.getClientProcessor('JOE');
lItem T_Base := T_Child(5, 2);
BEGIN
BEGIN
    -- This call no longer throws a PLS-00306 error.
    lProcessor.Process(lItem);
    dbms_output.put_line('Process completed successfully.');
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
    dbms_output.put_line('Exception when calling Process.');
    dbms_output.put_line(SQLERRM);
    dbms_output.put_line(DBMS_UTILITY.FORMAT_ERROR_BACKTRACE);
END;
-- Demonstrate dynamic dispatch by choosing a different processor
lProcessor := T_Base_Processor.getClientProcessor('ADMINISTRATOR');
BEGIN
    lProcessor.Process2(lItem);
    dbms_output.put_line('Process2 completed successfully.');
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
    dbms_output.put_line('Exception when calling Process2.');
    dbms_output.put_line(SQLERRM);
    dbms_output.put_line(DBMS_UTILITY.FORMAT_ERROR_BACKTRACE);
END;
END;
T_Base_Processor.SpecificValidation
Process completed successfully.
T_Another_Processor.SpecificValidation
Process2 completed successfully.

Problem in enter-query and execute-query in TEMPLATE.fmb in Oracle Apps R11

I have created the form using TEMPLATE.fmb in Oracle Apps R11i. There is 2 problems listed below when it queries the records:-
1) Cannot query the record by the specific value e.g. Cannot retrieve the PO records by entering the specific PO number.
2) Always display the message 'Do you want to save the record?' whenever the <ENTER-QUERY> key (i.e. F11) is pressed.
HOWEVER, it works fine for ALL records without entering any specific values.
Does anybody help to solve these two problems? Any hints? Thanks for any helps.

try setting the block status to query or record
status to new prior to getting in the enter-query
mode.
Thanks

How to make the enter key act as a button?

I have a CREATE and UPDATE button and I would like the user just to be able to press enter and perform the create or update as appropriate as if the button was pressed.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Greg

Greg,
Use the following so you don't loose the delete message:
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
   htmldb_delete_message='"DELETE_CONFIRM_MSG"';
   document.onkeypress = keyHandler;
   function keyHandler(e) {
      var keycode;
      var id = $v('PXX_ID');
      if(window.event){keycode = window.event.keyCode;
      }else if(e){keycode = e.which;
      }else{return true;}
      if (keycode == 13){
         if (id) {
            doSubmit('UPDATE');
         } else {
            doSubmit('INSERT');
         return false;
      }else{
         return true;
//]]>
</script>What is the name of your primary key item?
Are you getting any JavaScript errors?
Did anything happen?

Execute (Quit and Execute Query) button not showing up ...

Hi Gurus,
I recently installed SAPGUI on a different laptop which never had before.Everythng was fine but when I open BEx and start a new query, I do not see the green circle with check mark on it. This button is used to execute the query.
I did uninstall and re-install it, but it never helped. Please help ASAP. I will assign points.

Hi Matt,
It could be that the image has gone missing from the server. In a region's Region Header or Region Footer, add in:
<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#themes/theme_3/button_xp_center_FFFFFF.gif" alt="" width="4" height="24" />Do you see the image?
#LINK# is created from the button name, usually as: doSubmit('BUTTONNAME'). #LABEL# is the label you have set for the button. Neither should affect the image display as that is actually part of the TD tag itself.

Enter Key works same as button click

.

Tharpa,
You can make your search field a text field with submit. This will submit the page and make the request the name of the item when the user presses enter while this field has focus.
I cannot currently look at a 3.2 instance and be more descriptive about how you can do this, but if i remember correctly it was a sub option of the text field.
Thanks,
Tyson Jouglet

Since upgrading to Firefox 10.0.2 my AVG extension has had to be disabled, as after typing in any web address in the address bar, the enter key had no effect and I could not go to the site without pressing the Reload arrow on right.

I have recently upgraded Firefox to the latest version 10.0.2. After that I could not enter any website address and press the enter key and get to the website, nor could I select a website from the dropdown list of previously visited websites. The only way I could get there was by pressing the arrow on the right side of the address box (Reload current page). Once I disabled the AVG extension, everything worked normally. As soon as I enabled the AVG extension, it stopped working again.

Follow these steps for the controls to work:
# Start > Programs > Mozilla Firefox > Mozilla Firefox
# Find the “Tools” menu at the top of the browser window and select “Add-ons”.
# Click on the “Extensions” icon to make sure you’re in the correct option menu.
# Locate “AVG Safe Search” and click on the containing line to highlight and select the add-on.
# Click the “Disable” button and close the Add-ons window.
# Close down any Firefox windows you may have open.
# That’s It – You’re Done!

Is it possible - "pust enter key" and "execute go button"
