Links in a column

When you are doing links in a column, and there is not much room so you want them to sit one on top another, if you use
<p> </p> they are to far apart and take up to much room, so what mark up do you use. can any one help please.

Use unordered list <ul> <li> tags.
<ul>
     <li>item 1</li>
     <li>item 2</li>
     <li>item 3</li>
</ul>
Use CSS to style the list as needed:

Creating a Link on the Column Heading

Good afternoon,
I know with reports, you can create a link for each cell in the report attributes section. My question is it there's any way to create a link for the column header without hard coding it into the query that generating the results.
Thanks in advance,
Ivan

Ivan,
If you are using the classical reports, you have the option of creating column header using pl-sql block which will be dynamic. Thanks

Hi
Read this and follow it...
>
Go to the report attributes, then click on the edit link button by the side of the column you want to be a link to get to the column attributes.
>
So...
1. Go to edit the page that contains your report.
2. Click on the report region as if you were going to edit the report query.
3. Click the Report Attributes tab.
4. Click the button at the side of the column in question.
5. Scroll down to the Column Link section and fill in the details.
I really can't put it much more simply than that...

How to create multiple links in one column

Hi,
Could someone please help me with creating 2 different links in one column as below.
I enclosed is the screen shot of my current application view... I would like to put the link one below the other in one column instead in two different columns.
Table Name - SR_PROCESS
Functions - get_open_project , get_open_be

Below is my coding.
select
''Initiate New Project'' AS "Initiate New Project" ,

Hi,Welcome to the forum: please read the FAQ and forum sticky threads (if you haven't done so already), and update your profile with a real handle instead of "976745".
When you have a problem you'll get a faster, more effective response by including as much relevant information as possible upfront. This should include:
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used
<li>Theme

<li>Region/item type(s) (making particular distinction as to whether a "report" is a standard report, an interactive report, or in fact an "updateable report" (i.e. a tabular form)
With APEX we're also fortunate to have a great resource in apex.oracle.com where we can reproduce and share problems. Reproducing things there is the best way to troubleshoot most issues, especially those relating to layout and visual formatting. If you expect a detailed answer then it's appropriate for you to take on a significant part of the effort by getting as far as possible with an example of the problem on apex.oracle.com before asking for assistance with specific issues, which we can then see at first hand.

Hiding a report based on Action Link on report column values in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
I have two Daashboard pages. In Page1, I have Report1.
In Page2, I have Report 2 and Report 3 in different sections.
My requirement is, to create Action Link on two columns in Report1. Column1 should be navigated to Report2 in Dashboard Page2 and Column2 should be navigated to Report3 in the same Dashboard Page.
Is it possible to use variables to hide Report2 when we click on Column1 and Report3 when we click on Column2.
If yes, how to achieve this requirement?
Please help me out.
Thanks in Advance.

Please see the following thread - I just implemented exactly what you are looking for. The bad thing is that it does require adding an additional column to all of your reports.

Dashboard Prompt that does not link to any column

Hi,
This might be a basic question but I am missing something here.
How can we create a dashboard Prompt that is not linked to any columns? This prompt has to be a drop down with two values to choose from.
1. Accounting
2. Operational
The value chosen in this prompt will be used for calculations in my reports. The calculation for Accounting and Operational is different.
I do NOT have these two values in any of the columns.
Please suggest on how can I do this.
This is OBIEE 10.1.3
Your help is very appreciated

SELECT 'Accounting' FROM "Subject area"
where Time."Date"=current_date
union all
SELECT 'Operational' FROM "Subject area"
where Time."Date"=current_date

Thanks and Regards,

hi Dipti,
there is no column which contains the ItemURL.
if you want a colum to have url than you need to create a workflow
which calculate the ItemUrl and store it in custom column
use the below article to do this

Download Link as a Column of Report

Hi All,
I really tried from my side to somehow implement this requirement but couldn't find a way.
Requirement: A report with two main columns - One has unique value and the other has a download link. This download link need to be used to fetch a set of data from the database table using the other column's (unique) value. Then, user should get a popup on his screen to download the fetched data in csv format.
Please give some guidance or pointers to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Mangal

Hi Mangal
I've done this before actually. You can create a dummy page with a process (on load before header) as a PL/SQL anonymous block. I got code from Denes Kubicek's site which has details of how to generate CSV output using the htp.prn funtion. Then I created the 'download' link in a report column to go to that page passing a value into a hidden field with the unique id of the row.
The code on the new page looks something like this but I would refer to Denes' work for full information (most of this is copied from him).
BEGIN
-- Set the MIME type
owa_util.mime_header( 'application/octet', FALSE );
-- Set the name of the file
htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="download.csv"');
-- Close the HTTP Header
owa_util.http_header_close;
htp.prn('Header Name,');
FOR x IN   (SELECT field1, field2, field3...
              FROM my_table
              WHERE my_id = :PX_HIDDEN_ID)
LOOP
-- Print out a portion of a row,
-- separated by commas and ended by a CR
htp.prn(chr(34)||x.field1   || chr(34) ||','|| chr(34) || x.field2   || chr(34) ||',' ||
         chr(34)||x.field3..... || chr(34) ||chr(13));
END LOOP;
-- Send an error code so that the
-- rest of the HTML does not render
htmldb_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true;
END;Hope this helps.

Sharepoint 2013 - How to add "download link" to a column

Hi there.
We have download library with video files. We would like to add a column with a hyperlink of files in other words: DOWNLOAD LINKS.
What would be the easiest way to achieve that?
with best regards,
bostjanc

Hi Bostjan,
you can create a workflow that, on item create, sets your download link column with this value:
http://<your site collection url>/_layouts/download.aspx?SourceUrl=<your file url>
hope this helps.

HTML link in report column -- help!!

I have a report generated from a sql statment. I load an image into a column using the following statement:
select
decode(processed,
-1,'img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#process_fail.gif" border="0" alt="Processing Failed"',
0,'href=#OWNER#.PROC_FUEL_ANN_REP?pk_seq_id=#PK_SEQ# img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#process_form.gif" border="0" alt="Process Form"',
1,'img src="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#processed.gif" border="0" alt="Form Processed"') "Processed",
"PK_SEQ",......select...from...
What is happening is that the image shows up just fine, and the link appears to work, but the #PK_SEQ# variable is not working. It shows up in the link as "...=#PK_SEQ" SHould be "...=1" The owner field gets populated correctly. The pk_seq field works with my blob download procedure (i.e. xxx.xxxxx?f_file=#PK_SEQ#).
Any clues or suggestions on how to get the #PK_SEQ# var to properly work in the link?
Thanks alot
brux2dc
ps. I had to remove the '< >' characters to make the post appear correctly.

You'll need to do string concatenation to get the primary key column from your table to appear in the href. Something like:
'href=#OWNER#.PROC_FUEL_ANN_REP?pk_seq_id=' || PK_SEQ || ' img src=....'

How do I link text from column 2 page 1 to column 1 page 2

I'm trying to do a newsletter now that I upgraded to 5.0 Pages. I see no way to link the text on my first page in the right column (I have two columns of text) to continue on page 2 in the left column. Where is the blue link box that was in the previous pages? Or how do I do it now?

Add automatic e-mail link to report column

I have a report displaying on one of my pages. One of the columns contains user e-mail addresses. Is there a way to have the actual text of the e-mail address serve as a direct link to Outlook? Ie. when the text of the e-mail address is clicked, Outlook will automatically open with the e-mail address selected in the To: line?
Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Hello Lauren,
You can define the proper column in your report as a link. I named this column "EMAIL". In the column attribute page, In the column link section, you can use the following parameters - http://i4.tinypic.com/104hu80.png
The "mailto" will open the default mail client at the desktop if it's Outlook, it will open Outlook.

IR - Error with ROWID link to single column.

Just upgraded to Apex 4.0.1 very few issues but one I have found is with Interactive Reports.
I have an IR that uses ROWID as the column link to view an individual row (SQL Query joins 4 tables). In APEX 3.1.2 this worked fine but after the upgrade I get the following error.
{"dialog":{"uv":true,"row":[{"V":"Widget Failure
ORA-20001: SHOW error. ORA-20001: VIEW_ROW error. ORA-20001: GET_COLUMN_VALUE error. ORA-20001: get_dbms_sql_cursor error ORA-01445: cannot select ROWID from, or sample, a join view without a key-preserved table,
worksheet"}]}}
Changing the link to a unique column and specifying the column works, however, I would prefer not to go through and change all my reports.
Any easier workaround or fixes?

Is it Possible to link user defined column of system matrix ?

HI All,
Is it possible to link (with ExtendedObject) user defined column of system matrix?
For Example, In purchase order form, I have added one column called U_ItemCode (through Tools-User Defined Fields-Marketing Doc). I want to give drill down to Item master.
Here is the code:
OColumn = OMatrix.Columns.Item("U_ItemCode")
olink = OColumn.ExtendedObject
olink.LinkedObject = SAPbouiCOM.BoLinkedObject.lf_Items
the last line gives me 'Object refrence not set to an instance of the object' error.
For user form, it works fine (since it has the column defined as LinkedColumn in screen painter). How can we do this in system matrix?
thanks in advance
regards,
Binita

Hi Binita,
nice to see you
i mean the following:
1.) add the field in marketing document lines -> you need this to store the values in database
but this user field column will not have the arrow so we do ...
2.) you also add a linked column to the system matrix. you can copy the values from the udf column
to your manual added column and than you can use the arrow. (maybe you should disabled this column)
the result is you have two columns - the udf column and the linked manual column
i hope you know what i mean - very complicated
regards
David

Link inside a column table behavior

I display the ID as a commandLink that navigates to another page. I have single selection enabled for the table. The problem is that I have to click twice on the link for the navigation to work. The first click is considered by the table to be the row selection, and the second click is doing what is expected.
Ex: First row is selected. I click on the id of the third row, it's supposed to go to the details page. But clicking on the id makes the third row, the current selected row. If I click again on the same id, it's working because the third row is the current selected row.
Is there a way to make the click, select the row and navigationto the outcome page?

I can't find an error in the code beside the
