JSP Input to Portlet

Hello, World! (it was a lot funnier in my head)
I posted this in the "New to Java", but I think it's much better suited in here...
Anyways, I have this portlet application running where it is displaying genral news such as events, contests, etc.
I'm using a database and hibernate to retrieve the data.
It works fine for display, but now I am trying to create my doEdit() method. Right now what I want to do is get the "Edit News" part working (I figure Creating News will be a snap once I get this done). What it's doing now is taking the story that you want to edit, and it is loading it up on my editNews.jsp page. Basically, what this is going to do is display all the information from the story on the page, with the values in the input boxes.
What I need to do is have it 'save' the changes the administrator would be making to my database once the "Submit" button is clicked.
Any help on the quickest, most painless, and easiest wasy to do this would be a great help.
Thank you very much.

Hi Anders,
Make pageflow in portlet A to forward to pageflow in portlet B's action
login, done just after register is executed in flow A.
in Portlet A: register():
* @jpf:forward name="success" path="/portletBpageflow/login.do"
Flow will continue in Portlet B's action login.

Hello,
Is this possible?
I have to pageflow portlets:
Portlet A:
Page : input.jsp form executes action=register
Action: register() forwards to postregister()
Action: postregister()
Portlet B:
Action: postregister() forwards to login
Action: login()
Portlet B listens to portlet A.
I want B.postregister() to be executed when A.postregister() is executed.
I can make it work if skip A.register and let jsp go to postregister()
which will contain all logic from register(). The problem is that
B.postregister() is executed BEFORE A.postregister() which mean that
user is not registred when portlet B tries to run login.

I also use JDev and want to do like you do (that is deploy to 9iAS using JDev.
I tried to create new connection via Remote DCM..
but it gave me error.
I also read & tried the article that u suggested..
but still failed..
So, my questions are:
1)In step one, where in EM should i install Oc4jDcmServlet.ear? in OC4J_Portal(the same place i deploy jpdk)?
"Install the DCM Servlet, Oc4jDcmServlet.ear, to a running Oracle Enterprise Manager instance. This servlet is required to run in the same OC4J instance (same JVM) as the Enterprise Manager servlet. The DCM Servlet is located in:
<jdev_install>/dcm/lib/Oc4jDcmServlet.ear "
2)I download JDev into my drive C.
and i did found /dcm/lib/Oc4jDcmServlet.ear
I not sure what to type..and where should i run the command..
In the article,it run from c:\winnt\system32\cmd.exe.
But when i ty to run it, it gave me error
"Exception in thread "main" java.util.zip.ZipException: The system cannot find th

%sign in jsp input box

Hi Gurus,
This code was working fine. Then I added a common utility required and it does still run correctly but not when I enter a % sign
for example if I enter G339% the system out displays G339"a small square box"oe=partno
so it seems to transform the number and append other code after the number when calling the servlet.
jsp:
<input type="text" name="searchvalue" value=<%=searchvalue%>>
servlet:
String searchvalue = request.getParameter("searchvalue");
System.out.println("in the search value is: " + searchvalue);Please help and could you please give some code in the reply. I tried encode URL and nothing seems to work. I tried escape character that did not seem to work either. Really going crazy on this one.
Thank you !
I got this half way to work
I put this code on the javascript of the button:
document.forms[0].searchvalue.value = escape(document.forms[0].searchvalue.value);but if the user hits enter it goes right to the servlet and I am trying to do this but it does not work:
String searchvalue = request.getParameter(escape(("searchvalue"));I know this is java and I am trying to do javascript but I want to do something like what I have above...
Thank you!

You are encountering a "feature" of the browser.
If there is only one text field on the page, and you hit the enter key, it will avoid running the onclick method of the submit button.
Workaround solution: put another textfield on the page: even if it has a style="display:none" to hide it.
That is sufficient for the browser to then recognise it needs to run the onclick when you hit enter.

PUBLISHING OC4J JSP as web portlet

I have developed a JSP page in OC4j and want to publish this page on portal 3.0.9 as web portlet. I have created web provider and registered this page as portlet. When I view the portlet it comes as a Blank Page.
Can anyone tell me how to publish a JSP page developed in OC4J as a web portlet? Can I publish JSP web pages developed in OC4J as web portlet without modifying any JSP code?
I have installed all JPDK samples and they are working fine.

Here is what we are forced to do, because V2 has had a great delay in the time scheduling.
Hope it helps. Anyone better ideas?
Michael.

1. use mod_proxy in httpd.conf
<IfModule mod_proxy.c>
ProxyRequests On
ProxyPass /pof/ http://localhost:7779/pof/
ProxyPassReverse /pof/ http://localhost:7779/pof/

2. create JSP under JServ, use hidden fields to transfer parameter

WLIntegration Worklist.jsp in a portlet problem

I am using the BEA WLIntegration client example and have managed to get the initial
page displayed in a portal. The Worklist.jsp uses bean ResponseHandler. When trying
to display Worklist.jsp the server returns ResponseHandler not found. For portlets
where a JSP uses a bean where should the baen reside and what references in the
deployment descriptor are required.
The Worklist.jsp works fine when used outside of the portlet framework.

Another example of a multi-page portlet is described in Case Study: Building Portlets with JavaBeans.

Changing button label;JSP; input type="submit" name="jboEvent" value="Search"

Hello everybody,
I try to develop a multilanguage application in which the button labels will change accordingly with the browser's regional settings.
The line in the generated DataQueryComponent.jsp file is the following:
<input type="submit" name="jboEvent" value="Search">
If I want to change the value like value="Rechercher" the application will not execute the query.
In fact the section
<jbo:ViewCriteriaIterate datasource="dsQuery" >
</jbo:ViewCriteriaIterate>
is not executed.
I tried to generate the button with:
<input type="submit" name="jboEvent" value="Rechercher" onClick="this.value='Search'"> ,
but for a long query the name Search will remain as button label on the screen.
Any new solutions, please?
Thanks in advance.

Jsps from pageflow portlet in navigation (or from portlet to book pages)

Hi all,
I'm a Weblogic newbie. I was wondering if anyone could please tell me how to get the name or title of a jsp from a pageflow portlet in navigation?
I have page1.jsp (title: "Step 1"), page2.jsp ("Step 2") and page3.jsp ("Step 3") in a page flow that goes from page1.jsp to page2.jsp to page3.jsp. This page flow is made into a portlet. This portlet is the ONLY thing on the page in the portal book and the ONLY way to get to page3 is from page2 and to get to page2 is from page1, although you can return to page1 at any point.
I would like my navigation programming--the single level across the top--to show the name of the jsp that is showing or the title. I've seen how to get the book and the pages of the book in the navigation, but not how to get further than that.
Has anyone else done this?
Thanks so much in advance.

Have you resolved this problem? I'm stuck at the same place.

Thnx, Rajiv

Publish Internal JSP Page as Portlet

9ias 9.0.2.0.1
Portal 9.0.2.0.3
I have written some Internal JSP pages that I now want to display as a portlets within a normal portal page. However I am unable to locate a "Publish As Portlet" option in the properties of the JSP pages.
Does anyone know if this is possible and if so, point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Paul.

Hiya (and bump, I do realize this post is ancient...).
It seems to me that one simply cannot publish a jsp-page as a portlet. I have this exact issue as well, pl/sql implementation of what I'm trying to do (utilizing utl_http) is so buggy it will not work, jsp works beautifully with just a few lines of code, but what use is a jsp page when I cannot utilize it?
What is the point of jsp-pages in Oracle portal?

Calling a Servlet from a JSP within Portal Portlet

We've created a JSP that calls a Servlet when the form is submitted. The servlet handles the request, does some basic processing and then forwards back to a JSP. This works fine outside of Portal.
What needs to be done in order for this to work within a portlet in Portal? We can get to the first JSP which is in a portlet, but as soon as we click the submit button (which tries to call the servlet) we get the basic page not found error. We need to click the button, go to the servlet and have the servlet forward back to our portlet.
I know this is not the ideal way of using Portal however...
Any ideas?
Thanks!

I was wondering is there any way I can call a servlet from jsp? There are two scenarios here
1 - if the jsp is currently being executed/evaluated on the server, then you can use <jsp:include> to "call" a servlet, or <jsp:forward> to cancel the jsp and transfer the control to the servlet.
2 - if the page is already loaded and running in the client, then the only way to call a servlet is making a HTTP request as from any other html page. Jave code does not execute on the client, so you have to use html/javascript at that point.
Calling a servlet within another servlet.
lets say one servlet maintains all dynamic html. I call this servlet from another servlet to create a dynamic page and then insert values into it.Close, but the standard pattern is the reverse of that. What normally happens is you retrieve the values to put in the page, and then call the page, passing in those values. Thats why often you get a servlet/actionbean getting called, which then forwards to a JSP to display the result. The servlet/bean loads all the values required into scope, and then the JSP presents the data.

Publish web layout of jsp report as portlet

Re: Linking .jsp input fields to JSPBeans

You can accomplish what you want by passing parameters to the Servlet like the following.
<input type =text title=""name="refcode" value= "" size= "20" class= "textbox" maxlength= "18" >Then on your servlet, the value corresponding to the refcode will be at a parameter called "refcode"(the name of the parameters will be the same name you give to your fields on the jsp page. So gessing the name of the other fields on your jsp page the pice of your doPost method from your servlet posted below should be like:
String strRefCode = request.getParameter("refcode");
String strAuthCode = request.getParameter("authcode");
String strCostCode = request.getParameter("costcode");Be sure that your are informing your servlet name on the action parameter of the form tag on the jsp page so that the above may really work.
Hope I have made sense.
Thank you,

Hi There,
As it turns out, my boss (who sent me on this wild goose chase) doesn't know all that much about Java either.
He had suggested that there was a method similiar to the process in VC++ where you can link an input field to a class member, and let the framework handle all the data updating and processing. (I'm sure there is something similiar in Java application programming)
As it turns out, there isn't, as I'm sure everyone here is aware. Once I stopped being distracted by trying to find something that wasn't there, I found that there is some fairly obscure code in our application that does use getParameter calls to pull out the information.
To summarise: My boss and I are both idiots, and don't know what we're talking about when it comes to Java.
Thanks for your help though!!
Cheers,
Riv

JSP - Input form - Email Issue

Good Morning Everyone,
I have an input form that has 6 input boxes, seperated in 2 groups. Names and Email addresses.
I am currently attempting to send the input values to the JSP page as an array, which will then be looped emailing each user that i have previously entered from the first page.
The problem comes if i dont input values in all the forms on the first page i get an error. If it is all filled out then it all goes fine and dandy.
I have edited the html code down to protext page size.
HTML page.
<form action="formname.jsp" method="POST">
<table>
<tr><td>
Name <input type="text" name="name" value=""></td>
<td>
Email <input type="text" name="email" value=""></td>
</tr>
<tr><td>
Name 2<input type="text" name="name" value=""></td>
<td>
Email 2<input type="text" name="email" value=""></td>
</tr>
<tr><td>
Name 3<input type="text" name="name" value=""></td>
<td>
Email 3<input type="text" name="email" value=""></td>
<td colspan="2">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Select"></td>
JSP Page
<body>
<%@ page import="java.util.*, javax.mail.*, javax.mail.internet.*" %>
<%
// define variables and assign values to variables
String[] nName = request.getParameterValues("name");
String[] nEmail = request.getParameterValues("email");
// print by iterating through array
for(int counter = 0; counter < nName.length; counter++)
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put("mail.smtp.host", "localhost");
Session s = Session.getInstance(props,null);
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(s);
InternetAddress from = new InternetAddress("[email protected]");
message.setFrom(from);
InternetAddress to = new InternetAddress(nEmail[counter]);
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, to);
message.setSubject(nName[counter]);
message.setText("Mail Message Body!");
Transport.send(message);
%>
<p align="center">The Message has been sent.</p>
</body>
Edited Error Code
HTTP Status 500 -

message
description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request.
exception
javax.servlet.ServletException: Illegal address
~~
root cause
javax.mail.internet.AddressException: Illegal address in string ``''
<end>
So the above error message happens if i dont put data in all of the input forms, but if i do it has no error. The mail will get sent to the addresses i have specified but will come up with an error if only one is inputed with a name.
Also how would i also add a html email to this, instead of plain text.
Thanks!
