Multiple submit button on the same form

Hi,
I have created a PL/SQL procedure which generates a HTML form using htp and below is part of the code.
Create or Replace PROCEDURE OBM_PROCEDURE
htp.formOpen(OWA_UTIL.GET_OWA_SERVICE_PATH || 'insert_obm');
htp.formSubmit(cvalue=> 'Insert');
This creates the form and clicking Insert button calls the other procedure (insert_obm).. works fine.
I could create other buttons like "Query" "Update" "Delete" on the same form using following.
htp.print ('<INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE="Query"> ');
But all the buttons call the same form (insert_obm) since they are in the same form. How do I make the buttons call different procedure?
Thanks,
Jee

Hi,
The best way to do is call a single procedure as you are doing on form submit and check which form submit was clicked ,say based on the submit value and then do the processing accordingly i.e whether it is INSERT or DELETE.
Hope this helps,
Thanks,
Anu

Can I have multiple submit buttons on the same form?

Hi!
I'm creating a web page that allows the user to build a mail filter, and I would like to have to submit buttons, one to add more fields to the filter and another one to save the filter... I could insert the two buttons on the, but I don't know how to distinguish them while doing the process of the form on a jsp page. Any ideas?

You can create additional submit buttons using Javascript buttons:
<input type='button' value='Add Fields'
onClick='this.form.action="/servlet/AddFields";this.form.submit()' />
<input type='button' value='Save Filter'
onClick='this.form.action="/servlet/SaveFilter";this.form.submit()' />
The value of "onClick" is a block of Javascript, so you can all a function to validate the form before submitting, etc.

I have an InfoPath with submit button, publish the same to form library.

Hi All,
i have an InfoPath with submit button, publish the same to form library.
Now, i open the form fill it and attach some files, when i press submit button, that attachments will go to the particular document library.
Can any one help me out.
Thanks in Advance!

Hi Anil,
According to your description, my understanding is that the attachments attached to the form were submitted to an documents library.
By default, the attachments should be attached with the InfoPath form and will not be submitted anywhere.
There may be some customizations on the form that is to submit the attachments to the document library.
Please check the links below if the customizations are made in the form.

Handling Submit Button on the ADOBE form called from Web Dynpro

Hi,
I have placed a Button on the ADOBE Form. How to Handle the event on this button. When i click this button, i want to save the details of the form into a Custom table.

Hi Majunath.
Create an event say, SUB_EVTin the view in WD where you have the Interactive Form UI element.
Bind this event to the onSubmit of the Form.
Now check the display type of the form. It will be either ActiveX or Native.
Now go to the form designer and open Library palette. Navigate to Webdynpro ActiveX or Native Library(Depending on the form display Type in WD).
Drag and Drop Submit button.
On click of the button, the event handler in WD view namely, onActionsub_evt will be invoked. You can write your code in this handler.
Now in order to read data from the form. Go to the form and go to Properties tab. Check the form layout type. If it is not ZCI, run transaction SFP_ZCI_UPDATE and convert the form to ZCI type.
Now back to the event handler.
as an example... I will use the following context node definitions
PDF_DATA 1..1
ACTUAL_DATA 0..n
    ATTRIB01
    ATTRIB02
Assume the the node PDF_DATA is bound to the data source of your form.
Now in the event handler write the foll code
data: lo_node type ref to if_wd_context_node,
        lt_data   type wd_this->elements_actual_data.
lo_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this-.wdctx_pdf_data ).
lo_node = lo_node->get_child_node( name = wd_this-.wdctx_actual_data ).
lo_node->get_static_attributes_table(
importing
    table = lt_data ).
This will get all the form data in the internal table lt_data.
Now you can process the data the way you want and save it in your custom tables.
Regards,
Reema .

Multiple toggle buttons to the same destination causes conflicts

I'm trying to set up multiple toggle buttons so that a user can click on a button at any time and set the state of the dashboard. Each toggle button has a unique value (and each one has the same static value for both on and off) and I've mapped all the toggle buttons to the same destination cell. But they all seem to be competing to set the desination to their preferred value even when they're not being clicked on and, as a result, the dashboard keeps changing state in unexpected ways. Is there a fix for this?

When you have multiple components trying to insert to the same destination cell, the front-most object wins at load time. So, if tb1, tb2, tb3 (tb3 being the front-most object) are all set to respectively insert values 1, 2, 3 to the same cell, the cell will have value 3 initially.
Now there is an issue when objects in different groups try to insert to the same cell. The release note for FP3 implies that this problem is resolved, but I think it is not fixed completely...

Multiple submit buttons in a jsp form?

I've been doing some research and found out that multiple buttons in a JSP form are possible by two ways:
- We can obtain the value of the submit button to know which one was clicked in the parameters of the request using the name of the buttons (which should be the same for all the submit buttons).
- We can change the submit destination using Javascript (Horrible solution since I want my web site to be safe to be used even if Javascript isn't active in clients browsers. I will use it of course since we can do amazing things with it but I want my website to be able to work without it also)
WHAT annoys me is the fact that the value of a submit button is also his text, so if I change the text of the submit button, I will always have to check the servlet to do the corresponding change.
Is there a third choice to be able to use multiple buttons?
Olivier Voutat

It seem rather convoluted at first but it's really good. I've not worked with JSF so I've no idea how that compares but from what I know, Craig McClanahan, who came up with Struts, worked on JSF also, so I guess it could only improve on Struts.
EDIT: Here's a search result on Google'ing his name: http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=29068
But like I said, you don't have to use Struts ( which only uses standard JSP/ Servlets stuff anyway ), you simply use one of the ideas from it.
For example; you have a properties file, say "/WEB-INF/properties/myProps.properties" with these entries:
#USERS MODULE
users.button.save=Save User
users.button.search=Search User By Name
users.button.delete=Delete UserThis would be a key: users.button.save to the value Save User
Now, in your JSP, you use JSTL <fmt> tags:
<fmt:setBundle basename="properties.myProps"/>
//set the resource bundle you want to use
//and create buttons with the proper values
<input name="myButton" type="submit"><fmt:message key="users.button.save"/></input>
<input name="myButton" type="submit"><fmt:message key="users.button.search"/></input>This would create buttons with text "Save User" and "Search User By Name" respectively
Now, finally, in your servlet:
//create a map of the properties,
//possibly on app startup using a ServletContextListener
//and put it in the servlet context for access everywhere
HashMap myProps = (HashMap)getServletContext.getAttribute("myPropertiesMap");
String buttonClicked = request.getParameter("myButton");
if ( buttonClicked.equals((String)myProps.get("users.button.save")) )
//perform save action
else if ( buttonClicked.equals((String)myProps.get("users.button.search")) )
//perform search action
//etcYou'll obviously want to optimize this. Perhaps make a method that handles the comparison so you can have neater if conditions. But you get the idea, right?

Multiple submit button on a single form

hi all,
My current system have 1 submit button with single form. This submit button will call file_content.upload.
htp.p('function on_submit() {');
htp.p('     ...the rest of my code here..');
htp.p('     document.forms[0].submit();');
htp.p('     return true;');
htp.p('}');
htp.p('<form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="file_content.upload">');
htp.p('     ...the rest of my code here..');
htp.p('<input type="button" id="btn_Submit" value="Submit" onclick="on_submit()"></form>');
My question is, i want to enhance this by adding additional 1 submit button with value "Save". But this new "Save" button will call/trigger different file. This new button will call file_content.update. How to accomplish this and how to differentiate these 2 button?
htp.p('<input type="button" id="btn_Submit" value="Submit" onclick="on_submit()">
<input type="button" id="btn_Save" value="Save"></form>');
Appreciate any help from you guys. Thanks

Web Reports --- How submit button on the parameter form works ?

Hi all,
I understand that when we deploy the rdf and run the report through web it opens up with 'Submit query' and 'Reset' buttons. And this is from the html code that we see in BEFORE FORM VALUE (Report Escapes).
<html>
<body dir=&Direction bgcolor="#ffffff">
<form method=post action="_action_">
<input name="hidden_run_parameters" type=hidden value="_hidden_">
<font color=red></font>
<center>
<p><table border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0>
<tr>
<td><input type=submit></td>
<td width=15>
<td><input type=reset></td>
</tr>
</table>
<p><hr><p>
I'm just wondering how form action "_action_" is being taken care of when we click on 'Submit Query' button. Which file will it look for to get these values (action and hidden params ) ?
I would like to add a new button 'Schedule' on this parameter form which behaves exactly as it does with 'Submit' but I would like to add 'schedule' command in the URL. I could create a 'Schedule' button but was not able to build the functionality on what happens if someone clicks on it.
For this I need to understand how "Submit Query" works.
Please give me some inputs on this,
Thank you
ML.

These values are not stored in any file. Reports server will replace action and hidden with the actual values while generating parameter form. You can see the source of html parameter form generated to understand these.
For your scheduling requirement one very simple solution would be to create a user parameter with name 'SCHEDULE' and map a field in the pform to the 'SCHEDULE' user parameter.
You can also use a hidden field by name 'SCHEDULE' and set the value using javascript when button is clicked.

Is there a way to have multiple responders work on the same form?

I am creating a form that multiple people need to answer.
For example, I work on a team where multiple people need to complete their part of the checklist for one employee. Is there a way multiple people can work on a specific for that was already started??

Yes, they could with the save web form data feature. You can enable it by going to Options -> Save Web Form Data and check "Enable respondents to save progress". The catch is that once a respondent completes and saves his responses, the link to retrieve his form data will be sent to his email, he may forward over to next person who needs to continue to fill out the form.
Thanks,

Submit button from Interactive adobe form in Web Dynpro ABAP

Hi all,
We seem to be having a problem with the 'submit' button on the Interactive Form for the Web Dynpro ABAP. The submit button is from the Web Dynpro active X or web Dynpro Native in the form designer. The submit button doesn't trigger the action in Web Dynpro. we are currently running on support pack 9 for the ABAP stack. We have Internet Explorer browser version 6. Could someone tell me if there are requirements for the IE version that will work in conjunction with a particular ABAP stack version. And, are there specific IE security settings or administrative privilages required with this version of the ABAP stack. Or, any other ideas as to why this does not seem to work.
Thanks in advance,
Michelle Hong

Hi Michelle,
Could you tell me how you resolved the problem - as I'm facing exactly the same issue!
Many Thanks

Submit button with multiple email addresses doesn't work while the same form with one email address does. The multi email version works on windows computer.

The email comes up when I press the "Submit" button but the email to field is blank.

Hi,
What is the separator character between two email addresses? Is it a comma (,) semicolon(;) or something else?
According to the mailto URI scheme (RFC 6068), you need to use a comma (,) to separate multiple email addresses.
You can see the third example in the following Wikipedia page.
mailto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Would you double check the mailto value in your PDF form?

Is it possible to set up a form with a submit button where the data in the fields gets added to an existing excel file, just like 'collect response' but without connecting to the internet?

I have a form that I want to use to collect peoples information with a submit button. I am trying to get the data that gets inserted to be added to an existing excel doc when the submit button gets hit, the form then resets and someone else can fill in the same form, hit submit and his data gets added to the existing data in the same excel doc. It is basically the same as the 'collecting response' option but without having to be online. The form is going to be used at a boat-show and I am going to get people to fill it out on an iPad. Does anybody know if this is possible?

You could connect a bunch of 3700s to each computer and do this .
Or...since you're the one who monitors the monthly limit, you could restrict an individual's internet access once you see that you guys are coming too close to the cap.

Can you move a 'Multiple Image Upload' button into the 'Update Form'?

I am able to creat and an Update form and an image upload using the "Update Form Wizard" tool and the "Multiple Image Upload" tool succesfully.
<br />
<br />The problem comes when I try to move the "UPLOAD" button inside the Update form. Right now it looks like this:
<br />http://www.webritesolutions.com/Test/upload/now.JPG
<br />
<br />This is how I would like it to show:
<br />http://www.webritesolutions.com/Test/upload/tryingto.JPG
<br />
<br />I want to "Upload" button to go next to the "Update record" button. When I do this I get a javascript error and the "Update record" button is disabled.
<br />Here is the code of what I tried to do:
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<table>
<tr class="KT_buttons">
<td>
<?php<br /> // Multiple Upload Helper<br /> echo $muploadHelper->Execute();<br /> ?>
</td>
<td colspan="1">
<input type="submit" name="KT_Update1" id="KT_Update1" value="Update record" />
<br /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<br />
<br />Here is the Javascript error:
<br />http://www.webritesolutions.com/Test/upload/error.JPG
<br />
<br />thanks for your help.

A control can only appear once in the visual tree. So you have to remove it from the Grid before you can add it to the DockPanel.
This code will move the Border element from the Grid to the DockPanel when you click the button:
Private Sub Button_Click(sender As Object, e As RoutedEventArgs)
Dim border = CType(LayoutRoot.FindName("myborder"), Border)
LayoutRoot.Children.Remove(border)
contain.Children.Add(border)
End Sub
<StackPanel>
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot">
<Border x:Name="myborder" BorderBrush="Black" BorderThickness="2">
<TextBlock>...</TextBlock>
</Border>
</Grid>
<DockPanel x:Name="contain" Background="Yellow">
<TextBlock>2</TextBlock>
</DockPanel>
<Button Click="Button_Click" Content="Move"/>
</StackPanel>
You can try it for yourself. But please post your code as formatted text and not as embedded images if you want anyone to be able to reproduce your issue and help you in the future.
