Multiple selection drop down list

hi everybody,
i need to enhance the view BUPASEARCHB2B by adding a drop down list that allows for multiple selection....
please help.... urgent...
thanks

Frank, thanks. I should be able to use some of this code to write my own PJC. There are certain things in this demo than I need to replace for instance, instead of having an out list, I need a text item. Also I don't want to have to open another window to select names. Any other suggestions?

Multi-Select (drop down list) data not saving upon save/email

I have created a drop down list and modified it to allow multiple selection, i.e.
form1.BusinessAreaTable[1].Row1[4].ERP::ready:form - (JavaScript, client)
this.ui.choiceList.open= "multiSelect"; this.rawValue
= "-1"
However, when I go to save the form and/or email the list fields erase and the data / items I selected are gone.
Please help, thanks.

Okay, I have the form now.
You are using script in the form Ready event to make a dropdown list mimic a listbox. This is totally unnecessary. I have changed the ERP to a multi-select listbox in the Object > Field palette and commented out the script.
Here is the form: https://acrobat.com/#d=K*P4xKIA4kkqEHGTpgyvvw
The form has not been Reader Enabled, so user with Reader will not be able to save the data inputted or submit by email in PDF format:

Using the same field on a form for multiple menu/drop down list

I have a form that tracks people that attend orientations. It is possible for an Attendee to attend the same orientation up to three times.
In using the Update record wizard, I have two recordsets, rsAttendees and rsOrientation from two separate tables.
I want to be able to use the rsOrientation to create a drop down list, but I want to use that same recordset field as the source for the dropdown 3 times on the same record.
There are 3 fields on the Attendee form:
Orientation1, Orientation2, and Orientation3.
Using the wizard, I set each up as a Menu, then select the rsOrientation, Orientation.Date as the source for all 3.
The problem is that only the Orientation1 field is populated. Orientation2 and Orientation3 dropdowns are blank.
Name:________________________
Orientation1: __________________<-----------Using Wizard, pull Menu list from Orientation.Date This one works fine
Orientation2: __________________<-----------Using Wizard, pull Menu list from Orientation.Date This one is blank
Orientation3: __________________<-----------Using Wizard, pull Menu list from Orientation.Date This one is blank
Do I need to reset the rs somehow?

>Do I need to reset the rs somehow?
Very possible. You haven't mentioned what server model you are using.

Populate drop-down list from multiple text fields.

Just to begin, I am brand new to this application and brand new to coding in general. Anyways, this is what I am trying to accomplish. I need to populate a drop-down list from multiple text fields. I am able to populate one item using this in the calculate event:
TextField1.rawValue
After I type text in TextField1 and hit enter, it displays the text in the drop-down list. I need to do this but with more than just one text field to populate more options for the drop-down list. I will also need to do something similar with populating a drop-down list from selections made in multiple other drop-down lists.
Thanks for any help you can give me.

Thank you for your suggestion Geo Kaiser. With that, I was able to populate my drop-down lists, but now when I select an option from the drop-down list, the selection dissapears. The selection will appear briefly in the box but then dissapears although my drop-down list options remain there. Here is the code I am using for my text field to drop-down list:
DropDownList1.clearItems()
DropDownList1.addItem(TextField1)
DropDownList1.addItem(TextField2)
And here is my code for my drop-down list to populate another drop-down list:
DropDownList3.clearItems()
DropDownList3.addItem(DropDownList1)
DropDownList3.additem(DropDownList2)
Thanks again for your help. By the way, I am using Adobe Designer 7.0.

Is there a way to see the actual fonts in the "choose a font" drop-down list of a message window?

When selecting a font for a message in Thunderbird, the only way I can find to see what the font looks like is to actually change the font of text I've already written. To try more than a few fonts at random would be a sheer waste of time.
I'm using an older version of MS Word, which has the option of allowing the user to see the actual fonts displayed in the font selection drop-down list.
Is there any way to set up Thunderbird to do this?

The short answer is no.

Drop Down List not working correctly

Hi
I have created one 'DropDown' List box with static entry list. When i am selecting the entries nothing is happening.
I want to pass the selected value, how to do that?
Regards
Sandeep

Hi
Follow the steps below -
1. Drag Form & select Drop Down list for the required field.
2. In entry list select Static list.
3. You will get 2 columns over there Value & Description. In value enter key of the field & in text enter description.
4. Then create Button, select system action as 'Submit' & submit self option.
5. then in connecting line select 'event as 'Submit' & pass the key of that field. i.e @field_key
this should work.

Tested my website in IPad(IOS 8.0.2) works fine, It seems this only occurs in IPhone.

Yes there is no XTYPE default
But you can develope your own xtype , see example

How to use multiple drop down lists and do not allow duplicates.

I am creating a roster that has multiple positions on multiple pages. I have a drop-down list that is populated with all of the employees and want to make sure that the same employee cannot be selected for multiple posts. Ideally, when one is selected in a position, that person would not be an option in the other drop-down lists. Also, when the form is published, the end user will not use the drop-down lists in order. I have found script to remove selected items, but it only works when the user makes selections in order (List1, List2, List3 etc).
First time posting, any help would be appreciated.

Look into the ring control. It behaves a lot like an enum, but you can dynamically set its contents and values associated with those contents.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions

Columns in af:table rendering multiple times when filtering drop-down list

Technology: JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.4 SU5, ADF Faces/BC
Page design:
Master-detail jspx.
Each section is an af:table.
Drop-down lists created using instructions from http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/tips/muench/screencasts/editabletabledropdown/dropdownlistineditabletable.html?_template=/ocom/technology/content/print
Requirement:
Data in a drop-down list on a child record needs to be filtered based on data from one or more columns in the currently selected row of the parent record.
Issue:
Drop-down lists have been successfully filtered using a couple of different methods, however, any time the data from the parent record is used to filter the data the columns in the child af:table begin to render multiple times. Navigating through the parent rows may cause the child records to have the correct number of columns displayed or multiple copies of the columns displayed.
Removing any reference to the parent view object and hard-coding values instead causes this behavior to disappear.
Each of the following methods has been tried. Each filters drop-down list data correctly and each causes apparently random extra column renders.
1.     Cascading lists as per: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/tips/mills/cascading_lists.html
2.     Drop-down list based on view object that takes parameters.
3.     Set where clause for drop down list in a method on the app module.
4.     Set where clause for drop-down list in a new selection listener method for the af:table.
Question:
Is there a solution available that will filter the drop-down lists correctly and prevent the extra columns from being rendered?
Thank you for any help that you can provide,
Joanne

TextBox does not update when drop down list selection changes

I have drop down list the user can select a client name from. Once the client is selected and the "view report" button is clicked it the report has a textbox that displays the Client name or it is supposed too.
The report will display the first client name but any subsequent client name does not display on the first. I am pretty sure that is because I have chosen the "Dataset" where the both the "values' have "first" in front of the field.
How do I get the textbox to update to match as each client is chosen from the drop down list? I cannot use the report "parameter" I am passing to the stored procedure because the drop down list's parameter is the database name not the client
name.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sue

Okay, sorry but I am just getting back to my report. I still cannot display the Client Name in a text box at the top of my report. The textbox must be dynamic because my client name can be one of many that is picked from a drop down list box.
I added a textbox and tried to use the "join" with my Parameter - clientname.
In the textbox expression I used the following:
=JOIN(First(Fields!ClientName.Value,
"GetDatabaseName"),",")
I got this error message:
[rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The Value expression for the textrun Textbox1.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0] contains an error: Overload resolution failed because no Public 'Join' can be called with these arguments:
    'Public Shared Function Join(SourceArray As String(), [Delimiter As String = ]) As String':
        Argument matching parameter 'SourceArray' cannot convert from 'String' to 'String()'.
    'Public Shared Function Join(SourceArray As System.Object(), [Delimiter As String = ]) As String':
        Argument matching parameter 'SourceArray' cannot convert from 'String' to 'Object()'.
Preview complete -- 0 errors, 1 warnings
I also tried setting up a "filter" on the clientname using these instructions
Right-click the dataset (GetDatabaseName) to open the Dataset Properties.
Click Filters in the left pane, add a filter like below:
Expression:[DBName]
Operator: In(multiple-parameter) or =(signal-parameter)
Value:[@DBName]
I get an error message too which I am not even going to display.
I can set it up and run it as long as I don't want to change the value in the "textbox" to match the value in the drop down list. I am totally frustrated at this point. Why won't it work?
Simply put - I want the value selected in my drop down list box to match the value in my textbox at the top of my report if drop down list says "Susie" then I want "Susie" in my textbox or if drop down changes to "Bobby" then I want Bobby to show up in my
textbox when I generate my report.
Any suggestions of what else I may need to try?
Thanks for the help.

How to get the selected value/key of a drop down list box in webdynpro Java

Dear SDN Members,
I have added some static data into a drop down list box by key UI element using the procedure specified in value help tutorial.
Now i want to display the value selected in a dropdown list box on view whenever i select an item in a dropdown list box.
Can any one put here the code part relating to this.
Your help will be awarded.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Sireesha.B

Hi Sireesha,
You want to display value based on the key selected in dropdown list. If you want to do like that
1) Create a context attribute for ex: key_value
2)In the properties of the attribute select the calculated as true.
3)It will create getter and setter methods for your attribute.
4)Go to implementation add the following code in getter method of your attribute
String attributeName = IPrivateCreate.IContextElement.KEY;
//KEY is your dropdown key attribute not the value attribute.
IWDAttributeInfo attributeInfo = element.node().getNodeInfo().getAttribute(attributeName);
ISimpleTypeModifiable simpleType = attributeInfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
IModifiableSimpleValueSet valueset = simpleType.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();
Object key = element.getAttributeAsText(attributeName);
return valueset.getText(key);

Web UI - Value not getting selected from drop down list .

Hi All ,
I am facing a problem in one of the fields which is enhanced with a drop down functionality .
I have created the GET_V_** method and also the GET_P_** method for the same .And finally I am able to see the values in the drop down list . But the problem is , when I am trying to select a value from the drop down no values are selected .
Can anyone plese help me in this as What has to be done .
I have taken references from few guides but I am not getting any clear idea of what has to be done .
Regards,
Ranjita

Hi Ranjita,
To trigger a round trip, you must have given the event name in GET_P method.
Same event handler would trigger.
Please put a break point in Event Handler in IMPL class, and in SET_attr method of the attribute in CN class and see if value is getting set properly or not. Final value that would be displayed on UI would be there in GET_attr method of CN class.
I hope it helps.
Thanks,
Rohit

How can I select from drop-down list and jumping to selected subform?

I using LC Designer ES2 vers 9. Developing XDP. How can I Select from a drop-down list the appropriate selected subform (jumping to the selected subform on the page)?
drop-down list...A (jump to subform1)
                         B (jump to subform2)
                         C (jump to subform3)
subform1
subform2
subform3
....end of form

Hi,
you cannot set focus on a subform but on a field, as only interactive objects can be focussed.
From a dropdowns exit event the script will look this way:
switch (this.rawValue) {
          case "A" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;
          case "B" : xfa.host.setFocus("form1.page2.field1"); break;
