Multiple buttons problem

Hi, i have a table displayed on my page and each row has 2 buttons corresponding to it - one is address, one is school. When the address button is clicked that person's address is displayed, and when the school button is clicked that person's school information is displayed. My question is how will jsp know which row the button belongs to?
eg. [  ] is the button
Bart Simpson [address] [school]
Jerry Seinfeld [address] [school]
Joe Shmoe [address] [school]
One way that I was going to fix this is by giving different VALUEs to each button, however the label on the buttons have to be the same. Is there a way to do this?
ie. <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="address Bart" NAME="address" /> but still have the button's label to be "address" only.
please, please help!

Thanks for your reply, but I don't think that will
work for me since I have to process each row with the
same JSP. Any other ideas?Right.. so how will that not work? Are you passing an Object containing these rows into the jsp? The only other option that I see is to include some kind of identifier in the button..
Here you would somehow tie the id into the name. But this seems like a horrible way to do it.
<input type="submit" name="StudentId_1" value="Student">
<input type="submit" name="ClassId_1" value="Class">
Here you could wrap an anchor tag around an image of a button.. probably better than the first example.

  • How prevent simultaneous execution of multiple button threads?

    My AS 3 program has multiple buttons. Users can select one and then immediately select another and this causes 2 threads that collide.  Once one button is executing, I want the other buttons to ignore clicks.
    I've tried using a lock:Boolean to indicate a button is being processed.  Each button checks lock.  My logic is such that when the AS 3 processor detects a locked condition, it abandons execution of that button.  However, surprisingly, it abandons execution only termporarily ... once the the boolean is unlocked, AS 3 comes back and executes the button.
    The problems are twofold:  1)  the first time the 2nd button attempts to execute (by checking lock), when it returns (from checking lock) and attempts to pick up processing where it left off, it seems to forget where it was and does not utlimately complete its task(s); possibly variables have been altered, it is difficult to say.  That is, AS 3 is unable to successfully pickup where it left off on the first button.
    2) the second problem is that AS 3 incorrectly returns to button 2 after the lock condition is cleared.  It persists and will execute that button.
    Can anyone tell me how once one button is selected, the others can be locked out and won't execute??  Multiple threads from these buttons is a problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    dmennenoh - OK.  The downside to that type of solution is that each button has to "know" which other buttons are on the stage at that time, but, yes, that should work.  Do you think turning their visibility off would or would not be as effective as removing the event listeners?  I'm thinking turning visiblity on or off is simpler and simpler to manage.  Thanks for your help.

  • Multiple Buttons in JTable Headers:  Listening for Mouse Clicks

    I am writing a table which has table headers that contain multiple buttons. For the header cells, I am using a custom cell renderer which extends JPanel. A JLabel and JButtons are added to the JPanel.
    Unfortunately, the buttons do not do anything. (Clicking in the area of a button doesn't appear to have any effect; the button doesn't appear to be pressed.)
    Looking through the archives, I read a suggestion that the way to solve this problem is to listen for mouse clicks on the table header and then determine whether the mouse clicks fall in the area of the button. However, I cannot seem to get coordinates for the button that match the coordinates I see for mouse clicks.
    The coordinates for mouse clicks seem to be relative to the top left corner of the table header (which would match the specification for mouse listeners). I haven't figured out how to get corresponding coordinates for the button. The coordinates returned by JButton.getBounds() seem to be relative to the top left corner of the panel. I hoped I could just add those to the coordinates for the panel to get coordinates relative to the table header, but JPanel.getBounds() gives me negative numbers for x and y (?!?). JPanel.getLocation() gives me the same negative numbers. When I tried JPanel.getLocationOnScreen(), I get an IllegalComponentStateException:
    Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.awt.IllegalComponentStateException: component must be showing on the screen to determine its location
    Can someone tell me how to get coordinates for the button on the JTableHeader? Or is there an easier way to do this (some way to make the buttons actually work so I can just use an ActionListener like I normally would)?
    Here is relevant code:
    public class MyTableHeaderRenderer extends JPanel implements TableCellRenderer {
    public MyTableHeaderRenderer() {
      setOpaque(true);
      // ... set colors...
      setBorder(UIManager.getBorder("TableHeader.cellBorder"));
      setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEADING));
      setAlignmentY(Component.CENTER_ALIGNMENT);
    public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,
                                                     Object value,
                                                     boolean isSelected,
                                                     boolean hasFocus,
                                                     int row,
                                                     int column){
      if (table != null){
        removeAll();
        String valueString = (value == null) ? "" : value.toString();
        add(new JLabel(valueString));
        Insets zeroInsets = new Insets(0, 0, 0, 0);
        final JButton sortAscendingButton = new JButton("1");
        sortAscendingButton.setMargin(zeroInsets);
        table.getTableHeader().addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter(){
          public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
            Rectangle buttonBounds = sortAscendingButton.getBounds();
            Rectangle panelBounds = MyTableHeaderRenderer.this.getBounds();
            System.out.println(Revising based on (" + panelBounds.x + ", "
                               + panelBounds.y + ")...");
            buttonBounds.translate(panelBounds.x, panelBounds.y);
            if (buttonBounds.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())){  // The click was on this button.
              System.out.println("Calling sortAscending...");
              ((MyTableModel) table.getModel()).sortAscending(column);
            else{
              System.out.println("(" + e.getX() + ", " + e.getY() + ") is not within "
                                 + sortAscendingButton.getBounds() + " [ revised to " + buttonBounds + "].");
        sortAscendingButton.setEnabled(true);
        add(sortAscendingButton);
        JButton button2 = new JButton("2");
        button2.setMargin(zeroInsets);
        add(button2);
        //etc
      return this;
    }

    I found a solution to this: It's the getHeaderRect method in class JTableHeader.
    table.getTableHeader().addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter(){
      public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
        Rectangle panelBounds = table.getTableHeader().getHeaderRect(column);
        Rectangle buttonBounds = sortAscendingButton.getBounds();
        buttonBounds.translate(panelBounds.x, panelBounds.y);
        if (buttonBounds.contains(e.getX(), e.getY()) && processedEvents.add(e)){  // The click was on this button.
          ((MyTableModel) table.getModel()).sortAscending(column);
    });

  • Notes interaction pauses slide that contains multiple buttons

    I have several slides, each with a Notes Interaction. As advised, each of the notes is set to Rest of Project and are not resized.
    On the slides with a Notes Interaction, there are multiple buttons made out of Smart Objects. When a button is clicked, an advanced action causes a certain text caption to appear.
    The problem is that the buttons work UNTIL the Notes Interaction appears on the slide. As soon as the Notes Interaction appears, the slide seems to be paused and the buttons that are supposed to show text captions no longer work.
    I'm hoping that someone can help with a solution to this.
    By the way, this only seems to happy when previewing in HTML web browser.

    Jay,
    I had replied in an earlier thread that you need to have ONLY ONE notes interaction in the entire project - Not on every slide. The interaction is designed to be placed only once inside a project. So, placing it in the first slide of your project and setting 'Rest of Project' on it should cater to your need.
    You can choose slide notes or project based notes in the edit panel of the interaction.

  • Can multiple button actions be implemented by creating just one RFC?

    Hi All,
         I wanted ask a general question "is it possible to create just one RFC for multiple button actions such as delete, insert, search, modify, copy".
       I tried using one RFC for all the above mentioned actions but I wasn't able to consistently get expected results. So, I just want to confirm from SDN forum members that is it a good practice or is it advisible to create individual RFC for each button actions?
    Earlier responses would be much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Uday

    Hi,
    I did not see any problem for that creation on multiple button actions such as delete, insert, search, modify, copy".  These actions depending up on your RFC.
    For Example. Your RFC having Insert and Delete Functionality you can develop these two Actions. i.e is depending upon your requirement and Depending upon you r RFC functionality. That
    RFC donu2019t gave insert, Delete, modify these functionalities no need to create these Actions.
    So there is no restriction for call the RFC Via Actions(buttons)
    Hope this is help full for u

  • L430 multiple driver problems (ultranav and others)

    Hello,
    I have multiple driver problems with my newly purchased L430.
    1) After hibernate the UltraNav driver randomly stops working. This means that the settings are grayed out and my old settings aren't applied. Sometimes the mouse pad and track ball also stop working after hibernate.
    2) The hardware mute button and hibernate don't like each other as well. After resuming from hibernate with the mute button on the sound doesn't work anymore. Rebooting only helps if you have disabled the mute before rebooting.
    3) The intel usb 3.0 driver can't be installed unless you want a lot of bluescreens.
    I do have the newest drivers and BIOS (2.54).

    It's ok my friend,  I just hope I will be able to help.
    Now to the problem. The thing that worries me the most and the reason I asked you to contact a Lenovo Repair Center, is the blue screens with the Intel Usb 3.0 installation. If the driver is correct this should not happen and most of the times it signifies a pure hardware problem, not a software one. Really, it just should not happen, period!
    So please, before anything else, download and boot with a Linux Live cd, any distro you like (e.g. Linux Mint, Fedora, etc). Better choose a 64bit version. It's one way of determining if you're facing a hardware problem with the usb 3.0 ports.
    The information you give is very useful and more or less complete, but I would like to also know the model of your SSDs, both the 2.5'' and msata.
    Meanwhile, you can check either with the Linux Live cd or with Memtest86+ your ram. This does not seem to be a memory problem but it would be nice if we could exclude it from the suspects list. Many - if not most - of these problems are multifactorial and we cannot leave anything to chance..

  • How to use one pop up window for multiple buttons and input fields?

    Hi Experts,
    I have created a pop up window that will be opened from multiple buttons in the same view. There are input fields that the data will be populated from a pop up window.  How can I set up which button that a pop up window is opened from? I also would like to populate the data from a pop up window to the input field next to a clicked button. There are 6 buttons and 6 input fields that share the same pop up window. I would very appreciate your responses.
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    Try creating 2 context attributes, one in your component controller and the other in the pop-up view. Bind the attribute of pop-up view to the component controller attribute.
    In the main view, on click of every button set a unique code in the controller's context which helps you in identifying the button clicked. Since u have created a binding to the pop-up view attribute the value flows from the controller.
    In the init method of your pop-up view, check the value of the attribute and based on that display which ever UI elements are required.
    Eg:
    On Button 1 click set value "B1", Button 2  value "B2" etc. In the init() of pop-up view u can check the values and perform the required operation:
    if(("B1").wdContext().currentContextElement().getButtonIdentifier()){
    else...{
    Hope this helps you.

  • Multiple buttons on a single slide each connecting to a different url

    Using a trial version of Captivate 7.  I have a handful of slides where the customer wants to open different forms via url.  I tried using a button for each link, inserting the url and using the "enter" key for each of the multiple buttons.  Works fine with the mouse but for 508 folks who tab to the URL and hit the enter key ......... I get many instances where the incorrect url is activated.  Is there a way around this without assicning a different shortcut key for buttons where thare are more than one on a single slide?     Thanks

    For #2, itunes doesn't have the capability to monitor folders for new content. You'll need to get something like the free program 'itunes folder watch'.

  • How to add multiple button/choices in  button choice

    HI all ,
            How to add multiple button/choices in  button choice ?

    Initialize a cluster array (CrsrList type) with as many cursors as you think you would ever need.   Setup your cursors dynamically, then delete the unused cursors (array elements) and then update your CursorList property.

    Hello,
    Did you check if there are no objects on that index slide that have a fading transition? You should set the transition for every object to 'No transition'. The transition can be found in the Properties dialog, tab Options.

  • Having several buttons = problem

    hi all !
    there are multiple buttons on the form and each are for different servlets function, all buttons have the same id and name but not the same value.
    So what I want is that when I press enter a certain button is pressed or at least I want to simulate that.
    For example I have a form and when I fill it up I want to press enter to submit it... remember there are other buttons inside this page
    Thanks!

    Use java script and onClick method:
    <FORM>
    <TABLE BORDER CELLPADDING=3>
    <TR>
    <TD><NOBR>radius: <INPUT NAME="Circle_radius" SIZE=4></NOBR></TD>
    <TD><INPUT TYPE=BUTTON OnClick="Circle_calc(this.form);" VALUE="calculate"></TD>
    <TD ALIGN=RIGHT BGCOLOR="#AACCFF">
    <NOBR>circumference: <INPUT NAME="Circle_circumference" SIZE=9></NOBR><BR>
    <NOBR>area: <INPUT NAME="Circle_area" SIZE=9></NOBR></TD>

  • Multiple buttons for a given validation

    I want the same validation to be done on the click of two buttons. In the "Conditional Validation Processing", I see we can
    "select a button" which allows us to select only one button.
    How can I select multiple buttons for a given validation?
    Is there a way or do I need to create another validation for the second button.
    Please advice.

    When you submit a page with a button the "request" value is set to the button name (not the displayed button label). After-submit events can check the request using :REQUEST or v('REQUEST') so you can build a condition like:   :REQUEST in ('APPLY','CREATE')..or you can use a built-in condition type that checks the request value like 'Request is Contained within Expression 1'.

    Apart from the lock button problem in iphone 5 the display brightness suddenly goes blank and becomes normal after locking and unlocking the iphone. The Apple service centre in India is denying to service the iphone as it was purchase in USA even though the iphone is in warranty.

    iPhones do not have an international warranty.  Warranty is valid only for the country of purchase.  This is most likely because different countries require different iPhone models.  Not reasonable to expect all countries to maintain stock for all models.

  • Multiple Inheritance problem persists in Interfaces

This is not the so called diamond inheritance problem. What you have here is an ordinary name clash. And as has been noted you can resolve it by qualifying which constant you're referring to, like
    System.out.println(one.i);
    For the diamond inheritance problem to apply both the one and the two interfaces would need to inherit a common ancestor (that's how the diamond is formed). Furthermore the common anscestor would need to carry implementation which would then be inherited two ways, once via one and once via two. This is the diamond inheritance problem Java is avoiding by allowing single inheritance of implementation only.
    P.S. My previous post was posted my mistake.
