dosen't show how to pass the connect string

The form you use should work when your change
"hr/your_secret_password" to a valid username, password
and connect identifier like "hr/hr@MYDB". Don't forget to
configure MYDB in your tnsnames.ora file on the machine that has
the iSQL*Plus server.
What was the error you got?
The full URL syntax did seem to go missing from the 9.0.1 doc.
See below for the full syntax. This should be appearing in a
forthcoming FAQ.

What syntax can I use to run an iSQL*Plus Dynamic Report?
You can run a dynamic report by entering the report URI in the
location field of your browser, or by making the report server a
link or the action for an HTML form. The iSQL*Plus 9i Release 1
documentation has examples of these.
The general syntax for running a dynamic report is:
{uri}?[userid=logon&]script=location[&param...]
where uri
Represents the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
of the iSQL*Plus Server, for example:
http://host.domain/isqlplus
where logon
Represents the log in to the database to which you
want to connect:
{username[/password][@connect_identifier]}
where location
Represents the URI of the script you want to run.
The syntax is:
http://[host.domain/script_name]
The host serving the script does not have to be
the same as the machine running the iSQL*Plus server.
where param
Specifies the named parameters for the script you
want to run.
Named parameters consist of varname=value pairs.
iSQL*Plus will define the variable varname to equal value prior
to executing the script e.g.
...script=http://server/s1.sql&var1=hello&var2=world
This is equivalent to the SQL*Plus commands:
SQL> define var1=hello
SQL> define var2=world
SQL> @http://server/s1.sql
iSQL*Plus, SQL*Plus and SQL keywords are reserved
and must not be used as the variable names (varname). Note also,
that since variables are delimited by the ampersand character,
there is no requirement to enclose space delimited values with
quotes. However, to embed the ampersand character itself in the
value, it will be necessary to use quotes.
For compatibility with older scripts using the &1
variable syntax, varname may be replaced with the equivalent
variable position as in:
...script=http://server/s1.sql&1=hello&2=world
Note the & is the URL parameter separator and not
related to the script's substitution variable syntax.
Commands and script parameters may be given in any
order in the dynamic report URI. However, please note that if any
parameters begin with reserved keywords such as "script" or
"userid" then it may be interpreted as a command rather than a
literal parameter.

How to pass session variables via the URL in CF10?

Hi
I have a client with some old Flash functionality (AS2). The SWF allows the user to upload an image. However a new session is being started when the upload script is called. I have added the CFID, CFTOKEN and JSESSIONID to the URL as I did in the past to maintain the session but I believe you cannot do this anymore with CF10, if this is correct can anyone point me in the right direction of how I would accomplish maintaining the session for the upload?
This has a note about CF 10 - http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1178420

Hi Shaun
Are you facing the same issue with all the browsers?

How to pass input value to the IN parameter in a function

Hi ,
I'm new to pl/sql programming.
The below function is used inside a package and the package is invoked in visual studio.
The function uses 2 input parameters.
Out of which 'in_report_parameter_id' value comes thru job processor service 's job request.
The second IN paramter values are hard coded in the function.
I'm not able to understand this.
If the values are hard coded , how to make sure that only the hard coded values are the right ones?
Please anyone could explain to me?
I really dont have good idea about how to pass INPUT parameter to the functions or procedure
Is there any nice document which could give me good understanding about what are the ways or types we could pass values to the input parameter in subprograms?
thanks in advance.

This is not a design I would use, but should work if coded properly. I would probably build a reference cursor query as text and use one open fetch and close.
You have 2 input parameters, in_report_parameter_id and in_which. I could not find where in_report_parameter_id was used in the program, but the value passed in for in_which is being used in IF logic to decide how to open the cursor. After the cursor is open rows are being fetched and eventually the cursor is closed.
The values in_which are compared to are hard-coded. It is the programmer's job to make sure the values listed are the right values and the actions taken are also correct. Your program is assuming that if the first 2 values are not encountered the third one listed is the one you want.
To pass input values to a procedure you merely provide the values as a literal or variable in the call, something like
whatever := get_class_text_str(1,'SELECT');

How to create a pdf for the URL attached to an invoice and send it as an attachment in a mail

HI,
I have requirement where i need to get the URL attached to an invoice, create the pdf and send as an attachement in a mail.
The URL attached to an invoice can be seen by following the path : VF03-> Billing document->system->Services for object ->Attachement list.
On searching through existing forums, i found that there is a table 'SRGBTBREL' which stores relationships of GOS object. On giving the invoice number in field 'INSTID_A', i could find an entry in this table.
To get the content, i used the class CL_FITV_GOS, method GET_CONTENT. To this method i passed following values:
IV_ATTA_ID = FOL21000000000521URL39000000000012 (The value if field INSTID_B from table SRGBTBREL)
IV_OBJTP   = 'URL'
On execution, i get URL link but the content table is empty.
Could anybody provide some input on how i get the content? Or may be how i can create pdf from the URL link and attach it to mail as an attachment?
Thanks,

Hi Amit,
Solution provided by you is working when the link length is one line but it is not working for more than one line
Eg: say link is https://......80 [80 characters long]
I will give    <a href="https://...72            [in first line]
                 73..80">click here</a>         [in second line]
I will get the output as 73...80">click here
But i want only CLICK HERE in my output..
Please suggest solution.
Thanks,
Kavya

Getting an error in Firefox when passing an apostrophe in the URL

When I click on a button it is passing an apostrophe in the URL and redirecting to another page but got "Oops! We are sorry, there was integrity check error with your request. Please contact support" error in the Firefox browser. And the same URL is working in IE and Chrome browsers. Can you please help me on this issue.

Hi, thanks for the reply. Firefox may converting the apostrophe in the URL into different characters and send that information to the other page but not sure.
Firefox Encoding is set to Unicode (UTI-8). How can I see the failing to encode the apostrophe differently than the other browsers?
All browsers are passing ' instead of apostrophe (') in the URL. So I have added the below code in the JavaScript and it is working in IE and Chrome but not in Firefox. Please let me know your suggestions.
myredirect.replace(/&#39;/g,"'");
Sample URL: https://XXXXXXXXXX/XXXXXXXX/?first=abhina'v&middle=&last=kumar1&street=abhiXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Thanks,
Ramesh.

How to search a string from the database?

how to search a string from the database? starting with some character

If you're trying to do this in a SELECT, you can use the LIKE verb in your WHERE clause.
Here's an Example
SELECT obj_name FROM tadir
    INTO prog
    WHERE pgmid = 'R3TR'
      AND object = 'PROG'
      AND obj_name LIKE 'Z%'.
In this case it will select every row that obj_name starts with Z.
If you wanted to find every row that the field obj_name contains say... 'WIN' you use LIKE '%WIN%'.

OIM Reporting: How to pass a dynamic parameter in the xml file

Hi,
I am generating a custom report in OIM. My stored procedure is ready and I am getting the required data when I query the database. However,while displaying it through the xml file, I need to filter the fetched data by group name. The glitch present here is that the group name is dependent on the resource selected and so the group parameter is dynamic. How can I pass this dynamic group parameter in the xml file to filter the data. Which attributes are to be used. Can anyone please help me out regarding this?
Thanks in Advance,

The OOTB OIM reporting mechanism does not support dependant LOVs, which is

How to pass a value from the report to a form ( BIT OF URGENT ).

Hi,
I had created a "Form on a Table with Report" on the report I had remove the edit link and set one of the column feilds that functionality. Now I want to know how to pass that value that is clicked ( having hyper link ) on to the form where it runs a SQL query and then displays the reuslts on the form.
Illustrating with an example.
I am having these following columns on the report ( these are the results for the join statement )
JOBNUM JOBNAME DEPTNUMBER SAL EMPNO LNAME FNAME
In the above JOBNUM is having Hyper link as I removed the edit image.
Now this is area I am having problem. When the user clicked on the JOBNUM then on form it should display 20 other columns( pulled from 5 other tables ) which are related to that particualr JOBNUM.
Anybody give me a solution in which area I have to include my SQL statement and how to pass that selected value to that SQL statement.
Cheers,
Krishna

Hi Ron,
I am doing exaclty what you have suggested me but no luck. I started changing the DEMO_CUSTOMERS application to my requirements.The report is working fine and on the report I have created a page attribute to the Hyper linked column and linked that to the page 2 and assign that attribute with #JOBNUM#.
I am able to pass that value on to form when I click on the JOBNUM. But the problem is I am not able to pass that value into the SQL query so that my query pulls 20+ columns on to the Form ( which is second page ).
Small clarification... On the form region it is said FORM NAME and type is HTML is that is the way the APEX was designed or does it need to say region type as FORM.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Cheers,
Krishna.
