Javascript Help needed

We have a requirement to not display report until the user selects some requirements, and we also need to ensure a user has selected a value for certain prompted columns.
As such, we have written a custom Javascript for a custom "Go" button on our dashboards. The JS validates the required fields and generates a Go URL which loads into an iFrame when the custom button is clicked. This works fine in Internet Explorer, but in Firefox the prompt values are not being passed into the Go URL string. This is a security risk as it shows all data on the report when it shouldn't for certain users. Can anyone look at the JS code below to see why it won't work in Firefox?
Thanks
removed code, sorryEdited by: odinsride on Feb 10, 2011 9:17 AM

if(navigator.appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer')That would be the reason your code doesn't work in Firefox - most of it is inside an IE-only if clause!
Surely there must be a better way to achieve your requirement rather than to use all that javascript. One technique I've used to force a user to make a prompt selection is to use nonsensical default values on your prompts. By doing this you are guaranteed that the report will give 'no results' when it is first run. You can then add a no results view to the report and add your own custom message saying 'please make some selections from the prompts above'.

Math.min JavaScript help needed

Hello,
I am trying to write a script for a fillable PDF in Adobe Acrobat, but I don't have much experience with JavaScript and I need some help!
Basically I have three fields as follows:
A1 = a field with a number value in it
B1 = a field with a number value in it
C1 = a field where the sum calculation will be.
I want to write a script that will enter the lesser of the values in A1 and B1 into C1. If no value has been entered into B1, then it enters the value of A1 into C1.
This is what I have come up with so far:
    // Get the field values, number fields as numbers
    var d1 = getField("A1").value;
    var d2 = +getField("B1").value;
    // Set the field value to either A1 or B1, whichever is lesser
     event.value = Math.min(d1,d2);
Some of the problems with the script so far are:
It does not calculate correctly if there is no value entered in B1 (should give just A1).
It doesn't update the event.value if A1 is changed (until another form field is modified)
Can anyone help??
Thanks!

Adjusted the field calculation order fixed question 2.
The script given as answer worked great except for one area.
B1 values can range from 0 and up. If a 0 is entered in B1, then the Math.min ignores it since d2=="".
I can get around that problem by having a default value set in B1 of -1 (outside of the range). I'd prefer that there not be a default value set.
Any suggestions? I appreciate the help.

If/then JavaScript help needed

Hello,
I am trying to write a script for a fillable PDF in Adobe Acrobat, but I don't have much experience with JavaScript and I need some help!
Basically I have five fields as follows:
A1 = a checkbox
B1 = a field with a number value in it
C1 = a field with a number value in it
D1 = a field with a number value in it
E1 = a field where the sum calculation will be.
I want to write a script that will enter the sum of values of B1+C1+D1 into E1 if the checkbox in A1 is checked yes.
If it is not checked yes, then it will enter the sum of values of B1+C1+ the value of D1 divided by 2 (and rounded down) into E1.
Can anyone help??
Thanks!

This should do it as the custom Calculate script for E1:
// Custom calculate script
(function () {
    // Get the field values, number fields as numbers
    var a1 = getField("A1").value;
    var b1 = +getField("B1").value;
    var c1 = +getField("C1").value;
    var d1 = +getField("D1").value;
    // Set this field (E1) value based on the state of the check box
    if (a1 === "Off") {
        event.value = b1 + c1 + d1;
    } else {
        event.value = b1 + c1 + Math.floor(d1 / 2);

Javascript Help Needed Again

Hi there, I am not very good with Javascript, so was looking
for some help.
I have a select list for an order checkout page, which is
basically how
people heard about the site. You select one, and depending on
what it
is, another form field will appear with a message asking for
more detail.
For instance, if they selected Search Engine, another field
would appear
with the text "Which search engine" and a form field for them
to enter
it into.
What is the best way to do this? Some of the options in the
select list
won't need the additional field.
Cheers,
Steve

Javascript Help Needed to Show/Hide Regions

version 4.0.2.00.07
Hello,
I'm hoping that someone would help me with creating a Javascript function to Show/Hide regions.
I have a Select List defined as Checkboxes that when clicked I would like to show specific regions that contain fields that are specific to that checkbox selection. There are currently four selections available. There are two selections that would show one region and the other two selections would show the other region.
Please let me know if I need to clarify anything.
Thanks,
Joe

There is an out-of-box solution that may help you - check out the "Customisation" section in the region properties.
Otherwise, you might like to explore using a Dynamic Action to show/hide your region based on an event on your relevant checkbox.
Either way, you should have a declarative solution when you thought you might need to hand-code some javaScript :-)
ps - thanks for providing your Apex version.

Javascript help needed (confirmation for cancel button )

Hi guys!
I am not good at javascript but am going to improve shortly :-). Now i need very quick fix.
I'm using <html:cancel> button in Struts 1.1 and I'm using without thinking the following code:
<html:cancel onclick="bCancel=true;" >
<bean:message key="cancel.operation"/>
</html:cancel>
It is not that important though. I would like very much to alert user on possible loss of data (long multipaged form - could press mistakingly, who knows).
Would you, please post the javascript code that is needed to accomplish this - just alert and if yes - cancel, no - leave alone?
I'll really appreciate this.

Thank you for your response.
I also manage to write this. Is this correct?
<script language="JavaScript">
function ensure() {
return confirm("Are you sure that you want to cancel this operation?");
</script>
<td colspan="3" align="center">
<html:cancel onclick="bCancel=ensure();" >
<bean:message key="cancel.operation"/>
</html:cancel>

Javascript help needed if possible

I am trying to combine code from codaslider and shadowbox, but whatever I try, my code is basically rubbish!!
I want to combine the following two links in to one:
<a rel="shadowbox[Mixed];width=640;height=360" href="#">
<a class="xtrig" href="#1" rel="coda-slider-3">
I am fairly certain that all I need to do is combine the two 'rel=' parts of the code to get it working. Basically, what I am trying to do is stop codaslider from sliding when I click and instigate the shadow box. Is it possible?
TIA
Mat

No, it can't be done. JSP code runs before the HTML page is generated; it's a server side technology. JavaScript runs on the client's machine, after the page has been rendered.

Javascript Help Please

I want to be able to have a combo box to automatically populate a field with a certain phrase or number. I dont know javascript and need some help.
For example, in "combo box 1"- Cats, Dogs, Hamsters, Fish
If I chose Cats, "Text1" field should populate "25,000"
If I chose Dogs, "Text1" field should populate "10,000"
I know this is a simple custom calculation but still need assistance
Thanks

The easiest way is to set the export value of each combo box item to the corresponding numeric value. The calculation simply sets the value of the field to the value of the combo box. In JavaScript, this would be:
event.value = getField("combo box 1").value;
If you don't want to set export values fro the combo box items, the custom calculation script could look like:
(function () {
    // Object to associate combo box items with numbers
    var oVals = {
        "Cats" : "25,000",
        "Dogs" : "10,000",
        "Birds" : "15,000"
    // Set this field value to number associated with item, or blank if missing
    event.value = oVals[getField("combo box 1").value] || "";

Little help needed regarding http and https

Hi,
I maintain a website for my organization. Recently, for a login page, I started using HTTPS. It works fine with HTTPS.
The problem I face is : When a user goes to login page, he sees the login page via HTTPS. Now, if user doesn't submit the login form but chooses to browse some other link on the same page, that page will still be shown using HTTPS because links are relative. This increases unnecessary HTTPS traffic on the server.
I need a solution that can help me to change protocol back to HTTP if the user doesn't submit login form. I have written small piece of java script that can check at the time of leaving the page. If submit button wasn't pressed, it should change the protocol back to HTTP. I have played around window.location object trying to change it's href property. But, no luck yet. Please help me.
window.onunload = function()
// if submit button wasn't pressed, change the protocol back to HTTP
          if (!submitPressed)
                    window.location.protocol="http:";
                    alert(windows.location.href);
                 window.location.port = "80";
        }Please let me know if you know about some simple solution.

Just to clarify, before anyone can answer: Do you have access to the web server settings, and are you looking for a server side solution for this problem? If the answer to any of those two question is no, and you are just looking for a javascript help, this forums is not the best source for answers.

Javascript Help - Customising buttons to display varied data

Hi there,
I'm looking for some Javascripting help since I'm new to this form of scripting. In the report template I'm creating, I need to have a series of radio buttons with each being able to display a different amount of data when selected. So for example, if you choose option a and hit the select button: one layout for the document is shown, option b: another different layout would display, etc.
Here's a link to an existing pdf which demonstrates what I'm looking for in the second half of the page. The pdf is locked so I can't look at the existing coding or anything that they've used. Any help would be greatly appreciated~ Thanks.
http://www.lands.nsw.gov.au/_media/lands/pdf/rp_dealings_interactive/01T_v3-2.pdf

Nariko,
Place your "different amounts of data" in their own subforms. Have each subform default as hidden so that they won't show. Next in the change event for the radio button group place the following javascript (this assumes your radio button group has it's values bound as 1, 2, & 3):
if(this.rawValue == 1)
subForm1.presence = "visible";
subForm2.presence = "hidden";
subForm3.presence = "hidden";
else if(this.rawValue == 2)
subForm2.presence = "visible";
subForm1.presence = "hidden";
subForm3.presence = "hidden";
else if(this.rawValue == 3)
subForm3.presence = "visible";
subForm1.presence = "hidden";
subForm2.presence = "hidden";
This will display and hide the objects in the various sub forms based on which radio button is selected.

detail table is not neccessary )
now i am achieving the result by program-coding in C# after getting the rows from oracle
i am using oracle 9i (also ODP.NET)
i want to know how can i get the result in the stored procedure itsef.
2)how it could be designed in any other way.
any help/suggestion is welcome
thanks for your time --Pradeesh

Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:
SELECT C.COMB_ID
, C.COMB_NAME
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID1) AS SUBJECT_NAME1
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID2) AS SUBJECT_NAME2
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID3) AS SUBJECT_NAME3
, (SELECT SUB_NAME
FROM SUBJECTS
WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
FROM COMBINATION C;
As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

Hi all help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.
But not sure that my lenses will work.
I have a 170mm/ 500mm APO Sigma.
A 10/20 ex Sigma HSM IF.
And a 180 APO Sigma Macro or do I have to scrap them and buy others.
ALL Help will be greatly received. Yours BRODIE

In short, I love it. I was going to buy the 5DMark III. After playing with it for a while at my local Fry's store where they put 5DMII, 5DMIII and 6D next to each other, using the same 24-105L lens, I decided to get the 6D and pocket the different for lens later.
I'm upgrading from the 30D. So I think you'll love it. It's a great camera. I have used 5DMII extensively before (borrowing from a close friend).
Funny thing is at first I don't really care about the GPS and Wifi much. I thought they're just marketing-gimmick. But once you have it, it is actually really fun and helpful. For example, I can place the 6D on a long "monopod", then use the app on the phone to control the camera to get some unique perspective on some scenes. It's fun and great. GPS is also nice for travel guy like me.
