Masked HTML tags in substitution strings after upgrade to Apex 2.2

Hello, 
 
in my application developed with htmldb 2.0 I had the following scenario which worked fine until upgrade to 2.2: 
 
Requirement: a multiline text should be displayed as entered on a html report page. 
My solution: 
- a onload page process of the form 
select replace(description,chr(10),' ') into :P1_DESCRIPTION from mytable where id = :P1_ID; 
- and a page template containing 
... 
<td>&P1_DESCRIPTION.</td> 
... 
 
This worked in HTML DB 2.0. 
 
My problem: After upgrade to Apex 2.2 the report doesn't display the carriage returns anymore. Instead of interpreted BR tags I get masked BR tags printed as text: 
 this is the first line this is the second line 
It's quite obvious that the substitution mechanism changed in Apex 2.2. Any ideas how to change my app ?

Take a look at this thread:
Computed Region TItles being Escaped in Apex 2.2
You may have to change the type of your P1_DESCRIPTION item.

Integrate html tags in a string and display it in a multiline text area

Hi ABAPers!!
First of all let me tell you that I'm working in ACCENTURE Casablanca(Morocco) and this is my first Job in my career.
I'm working on an ALV OO, the program consists on creating an ALV using OO, In my selection screen there's a parameter of type ddobjname I provide the name of table and it returns the table's fields in another dynpro (screen0100), To do this I used the FM: 'DDIF_FIELDINFO_GET' then I append the internal table returned in another one to add the field CB (CheckBox), and I add a button in the toolbar, the function of this button is to generate a MySQL script To create the table provided by the user in my parameter (Screen 1000), but the fields of this table(MySQL) in the generated script are only the selected ones by cheking the checkbox in the ALV.
I store my script in a string.
My problem is that I want to show my script in a text area, but I don't know how to create a multiline text area!!
And I want to use HTML tags in my string.
I don't want to my string like this :
CREATE [TEMPORARY] TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] SPFLI ( CONNID CHAR ( 4 ) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY , FLTIME INT ( 10 ) , DEPTIME DATETIME ( 6 ) , DISTANCE DOUBLE ( 9 ) , FLTYPE VARCHAR ( 1 ));
But I want it to be shown like this:
CREATE [TEMPORARY] TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] SPFLI (
CONNID CHAR ( 4 ) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY ,
FLTIME INT ( 10 ) ,
DEPTIME DATETIME ( 6 ) ,
DISTANCE DOUBLE ( 9 ) ,
FLTYPE VARCHAR ( 1 ));
Thanks in advance

Hi again!!
You know what!! let's forget the HTML and focuse on what I want to show.
As I told you, I've a string which contains my script.
I don't want that it will be shown as a simple line like this :
CREATE [TEMPORARY] TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] SPFLI ( CONNID CHAR ( 4 ) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY , FLTIME INT ( 10 ) , DEPTIME DATETIME ( 6 ) , DISTANCE DOUBLE ( 9 ) , FLTYPE VARCHAR ( 1 ));
But I want it to be shown as follows:
CREATE [TEMPORARY] TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] SPFLI (
CONNID CHAR ( 4 ) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY ,
FLTIME INT ( 10 ) ,
DEPTIME DATETIME ( 6 ) ,
DISTANCE DOUBLE ( 9 ) ,
FLTYPE VARCHAR ( 1 ));
and finally I want to show it in a multiline text area.
Plz what shud I do?!!! If possible I need a piece of code.
PS : I create a HTML Viewer using this code :

But when it's shown my ALV disappears!!!

How to remove HTML tags from a String ?

Hello,
How can I remove all HTML Tags from a String ?
Would you please to give me a simple example ?
Best regards,
Eric

Here's some code I cooked up. I have created an object that processes code so that it can be incorporated directly into a project. There is some redundancy so that the it can be used in more than one way. Depending on your situation you might have to make the condition statement a little more sophisticated to catch stray ">" tags.
I have also included a Tester application.
//This removes Html tags from a String either by submitting the String during construction and then
// calling getProcessedString() or
// by simply calling " stringwithoutTags=removeHtmlTags(stringWithTagsSubmission); "
//Note: This code assumes that all"<" tags are accompanied by a ">" tag in the proper order.
public class HtmlTagRemover
 private String stringSubmission,processedString,stringBeingProcessed;
 private int indexOfTagStart,indexOfTagEnd;
 public HtmlTagRemover()
 public HtmlTagRemover(String s)
 removeHtmlTags(s);
 public String removeHtmlTags(String s)
 stringSubmission=s;
 stringBeingProcessed=stringSubmission;
 removeNextTag();
 return processedString;
 private void removeNextTag()
 checkForNextTag();
 while((!(indexOfTagStart==-1||indexOfTagEnd==-1))&<indexOfTagEnd)
 removeTag();
 checkForNextTag();
 processedString=stringBeingProcessed;
 private void checkForNextTag()
 indexOfTagStart=stringBeingProcessed.indexOf("<");
 indexOfTagEnd=stringBeingProcessed.indexOf(">");
 private void removeTag()
 StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer("");
 sb.append(stringBeingProcessed);
 sb.delete(indexOfTagStart,indexOfTagEnd+1);
 stringBeingProcessed=sb.toString();
 public String getProcessedString()
 return processedString;
 public String getLastStringSubmission()
 return stringSubmission;
public class HtmlRemovalTester
 static void main(String[] args)
 String output;
 HtmlTagRemover h=new HtmlTagRemover();
 output="The processed String: "+h.removeHtmlTags("<Html tag>This is a test<another Html tag> string<yet another Html tag>.");
 output=output+"\n"+" The original string:"+h.getLastStringSubmission();
 System.out.print(output);

Stripping HTML Tags from a String

What's the best way to remove html tags from a string (i.e. user input)?

Can you give an example? You can do substring, if your passing spaces between pages you can do a trim to the variable. Also look at the indexOf(). Look at methods relating to java.lang.String.

HTML tag in Coldfusion string not appearing

Hey guys I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong when trying to
store an html tag in a string. Basically I'm dynamically creating a
list for use in a javascript menu, so when building the menu, I do
this:
menu = "< ul id = """ & mainID & """
> ";
to generate a list (of course thats only part of the list
code). This line produces < ul id = "mainID" >
What I need is for the spaces to be removed, so it would
produce <ul id="mainID">
But in my Coldfusion function, if I write:
menu = "<ul id=""" & mainID & """> ";
nothing shows up! A space between < and ul works fine, but
once I delete them, nothing! Any help would be really appreciated,
thanks.

actually found the answer elsewhere, I declared a variable
open = < now instead of using the <, i just write open,
which generates the list fine.
but a followup, the list is being generated now, but on the
page instead of the javascript/css menu catching it and formatting
it, it just displays the whole list, tags and all. I tried
htmlEditFormat( ), that only changed all the symbols to their I
guess ASCI couterparts. Any ideas why its showing the list as text
rather than creating a menu??
also I tried it without the menu, which should have shown a
bulleted list, but that didn't work either...

Integration of APEX in OBIEE 11g fails after upgrade to APEX 4.2.1

I used a document from the german APEX forum to integrate Oracle Business Intelligence 11g (OBIEE) with APEX.
After login in OBIEE a APEX page will be called without login in APEX.
The Document is called "APEX in Oracle Business Intelligence (Oracle BI) integrieren"
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/de/community/apex/tipps/biee-apex/index.html
In APEX 4.0 this worked great. After login in OBIEE I could call a APEX page without new login.
But after upgrading to APEX 4.2.1 now the APEX login mask is displayed.
OBIEE uses this function to create a APEX session and store the APEX session-id and username in the table apex_biee_session:
-- Function GET_APEX_SESSION_ID
-- sets up an APEX session for a BIEE user
FUNCTION get_apex_session_id (p_username IN VARCHAR2,p_days_valid IN NUMBER DEFAULT 1) RETURN VARCHAR2

END page_sentry;
The problem seems to be that in line "l_session_id := apex_custom_auth.get_session_id;" the call of apex_custom_auth.get_session_id is returning NULL in APEX 4.2.1.
In APEX 4.0 the call of apex_custom_auth.get_session_id returned the APEX session id.
What can I do to get this working again ?
Kind Regards,
Markus

Hi,
this integration relies on session fixation, that's an insecure practice which is not allowed anymore since 4.1:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Session_fixation
Since the cookie value for the session id is missing, Apex rejects the session id and sets it to null, before calling the sentry function.
If you absolutely want to use this kind of integration, you will have to parse the value of owa_util.get_cgi_env('QUERY_STRING') in the sentry function to get the session id. To make it a bit more secure, the row in APEX_BIEE_SESSION should only be valid for a very short time (e.g. 1 sec). A person from Oracle Support contacted me about possible improvements to this authentication a few weeks ago. I replied with the following suggestions:
I would at least add a Y/N flag (e.g. SESSION_JOINED_BY_APEX) to the
APEX_BIEE_SESSION table. The page sentry should only accept the session
without an accompanying cookie if the flag is still N. It has to set it
to Y afterwards. This way, you ensure that the session joining without
cookie can only be done once. Maybe there should also be an alternative
way to log in to APEX, e.g. via page 101. Currently, this authentication
only accepts session IDs that were generated via OBIEE.
Users could log out of APEX or the APEX session could expire. Therefore,
the APEX app should have a post logout procedure that deletes the row in
the OBIEE session table. On the OBIEE side, APEX_SESSION_ID should
therefore be initialized on each request. The initialization code should
also check APEX_WORKSPACE_SESSIONS to make sure the session still
exists.

Christian

Popup LOV returns not found on this server after upgrading to APEX 3.2

The Popup Key LOV (Displays description, returns key value) does not work after upgrading to APEX 3.2 from APEX 3.0.
Don't now if the character set is relevant.
The database character set on APEX 3.0 was:
NLS_CHARACTERSET: WE8MSWIN1252
DAD CHARACTERSET: WINDOWS-1252
APEX 3.2:
NLS_CHARACTERSET: AL32UTF8
DAD CHARACTERSET: UTF-8
When clicking on the popup the message is "The requested URL /pls/apex31mb/wwv_flow_utilities.gen_popup_list was not found on this server.".
This error applies for both Firefox and IE.

Can't reproduce the error on apex.oracle.com, the popup works fine.
The only difference I notice on the environments is the database version (our: 10g, oracle.apex.com: 11g), but I can't see this have any influence.

Method to Format a string column containing HTML tags as simple string.

Hello,
I am working with formating a string column which holds Html tags.
I want to remove these tags from the actual data which has to be shown on the BI Publisher report.
Can you suggest how can we format this in the DataSet designer of BI publisher so that my data is recognised on the Layout designer.
I have been trying to create an expression using the "Add Element by Expression" option to format this html tag data as normal string without the tags.
Can you suggest if this is the correct method to do this.
I found this below code being used in an existing DateSet but i am not able to recreate a similar formating on this kind of data column.
<![CDATA' || '['|| TO_CLOB(SUCCESS_CRITERIA) || ']' || ']>
Kindly suggest if you have any idea on the above mentioned issue.
Thanks,
Shweta

Problems with HTML in dynamic reports template after upgrade to 3.1

Hi, we just upgraded from APEX 2 to 3.1. W ehave an application that has a report template as follows:
<img src="&P1_LOGO." border="0" alt="Home" />
<div>
<table align="LEFT">
<tr>
<td align="LEFT" width=500>&P1_FROM_ADDRESS.</td>
<td align="LEFT" width=175>&P1_REMIT_TO.</td>
</tr>
</table>
 
#BOX_BODY#
The item P1_REMIT_TO is set to an address using a PL/SQL computation. It has HTML tags such as and in it. In 2.0 this displayed fine. In 3.1 it does not interpret the HTML tags, so it sshows up with the HTML tags in the text.
Any idea what may have changed and how to fix this?

Tor,
You're in Tampa huh? Are you a member of the SOUG?
Issues like browser alignment are always easiest to figure out with an example. Post an example app on apex.oracle.com and provide some developer credentials with which we can get in "under the hood".

XLS download of interactive report - error after upgrade to apex 4.1.1

Hello!
When trying to download a certain IR with e.g. 10 columns as XLS, I get the following error in the Excel in Apex 4.1.1:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
If I change it to two columns it works.
BI Publisher 11.1.1.5.0
Apex 4.1.1.00.23
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0
In Apex 4.0.2.00.07 the exact same IR works with any number of columns.
Any ideas?
BR Paul

BR Paul,
I am experiencing the same issue after upgrading to 4.1.1.00.23 and trying to download pdf via bi pub xmlpserver. Seems if i reduce the columns to what fits on an 8.5X11 page then it works without error. Were you able to find a workaround in 4.1.1? Just trying to save some effort if you already found the solution. I wasn't successful in finding many others with this issue, so i appreciate the post but unfortunately don't have an answer to our problem. I'm using the standard csv download option and this works but of course it isn't going through bi pub.
thanks,
Jeff

Cannot login after upgrading to Apex 3.1.2

I have installed the oracle-xe-10.2.1-1.0.i386.rpm onto a RedHat server using
]# rpm -ivh oracle-xe-10.2.0.1-1.0.i386.rpm
Then I configure the database

Then I enable remote access

After this install I'm attempting to upgrade to Apex 3.1.2 and have attempted this several times. Each time, the result is that I can bring up the web page, but cannot authenticate. All that I see is "error on page" at the bottom left of the window. (IE6 or Firefox).
To complete the upgrade I do the following.

After upgrade to Apex 4.2.1, login to old workspace results in 404

I have made an upgrade to Apex 4.2.1 from Apex 4.1 runtime.
(Upgrade completed successfully no errors encountered.)
I had an installed app which I cannot use now.
Login to apex_admin is possible, so I've created developer users in the existing workspace.
Developer users get
404 - Not found error when logging in to the workspace, with
http://mysrv:8080/apex/wwv_flow.acceptin the address line.
It is apparent in the DB that the existing application has been copied to apex_040200 DB schema.
Same error is displayed when navigating to the app's login page, say http://mysrv:8080/apex/f?p=123:1
I use GlassFish Server Open Source Edition 3.1.1.
After upgrading Apex Listener to 2.0.1 (from 1.1.3), nothing has changed except that
404 appears in white over a blue background stripe.

However, after creating a new WS, I can log into it.
Is there a way to use to WS and APP created in the older Apex version 4.1 ?

Under apex_admin, among all workspace requests, I first had to deselect status = 1,
then my workspace has appeared in the list with status "-". After clicking on Adjust,
status "Terminated" appeared, who knows why.
Since I changed workspace status to Approved, login is working.
Questions:
1/ How comes that status "Terminated" was not shown on the existing workspaces list?
2/ What leads to the Terminated status, while the app was reachable before upgrade to 4.2.1?
While App builder is appearing nice, my app has lost its design.
3/ Where are images looked up? Do I need to reference glassfish docroot/i in i.war for Apex Listener 2.0.1? (I referred to apex install dir as indicated in the installation manual)
4/ My custom login page starts with this error. Even after I log out of the builder. Is this normal?

DB Home no longer available on XE after upgrade to apex 4.1.1

Hello,
I've installed XE 11R2 with Apex 4.0 included.
The upgrade to apex 4.1.1 succeded, the url (http://localhost:8080/apex/f?p=4550:1) is still the same.
But the DB Home (http://localhost:8080/apex/f?p=4950:1) is no longer available, an error displays :
Error ERR-1014 Application not found.
application=4950 workspace=10 It's seems the workspace and the db home application has been deleted. Does an other way to access the DB Home exist ?
Thanks a lot,
Fanny

Sorry, I've just found an other thread about this issue : After upgrading APEX to 4.1 the application 4950 is not working anymore
It appears that on XE, apex 4.0 can't be upgraded for now. This is annoying in my case because I need apex other languages, not included in the xe version...
Maybe can I use the standart apex folders ?

Jquery datepicker not popping up after upgrade to Apex 4.x

Hi,
We have recently upgraded from Apex 3.x to Apex 4.x. Earlier in Apex 3.x we have used Jquery libraries to display datepicker and it used to work. Now after the apex upgrade to 4.0 I am not getting the datepicker to popup. This is currently working in Mozilla browser but not in internet explorer. We are using IE7. This is an issue when using in Mult row screen. Single record screen is working fine.
Please advice if any one has faced similar issue.
Thanks
Sukarna
