Page Alias in Tab?

Hi,
I have several applications which all have to run on more than one server. To avoid problems when exporting and importing these applications from one server to another, I normally use the Page Aliases to branch to pages.
Now, I wanted to replace the page numbers by Aliases in the Tabs which seems to be impossible... Was there some error or do I necessarily have to use page numbers in Tabs?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Amy

Page numbers only at this time, sorry.

  • Page Alias

    Several best practice articles refer to using page aliases rather than page numbers for navigation. Obviously, using mnemonic names rather than arbitrary page numbers makes creating branches easier since the names are easier to remember. The articles also mention preserving navigation integrity in case the pages in the application are renumbered (although I don't know how or why you would do this). However there seem to be several places in APEX where page aliases cannot be used (e.g. clear cache in branches, current for pages in tabs) and page numbers must be used instead. Doesn't this negate the renumbering argument and limit the usefulness of the page aliases. If you are constructing a branch that needs to clear the cache on the target page you still need to know the page number of the target. Furthermore if you use the page alias for the target and the page number for the clear cache there is a greater possibility that you could make an error and they would not be in sync. It seems that you should be able to use page aliasies anywhere you use page numbers. Am I missing something?

    I've wondered the same thing. I think page aliases should be allowable (and encouraged) anywhere a page ID is accepted.

  • Page Alias ignored in branch to url

    Apex 4.1
    Oracle 10Gex
    Theme: BlueGray13
    I am trying to replace all app and page numbers with alias so that the url doesn't reflect numeric detail.
    No problem in using app alias, however several areas do require the page number and won't accept an alias. (Tabs for one...)
    Specific issue is a branch withing the same app, after processing.
    Originally was a branch to a page in the same app.  Passing variables and values in the URL.
    Changed the branch to a branch to URL; including the variables and values.
    First use, functionally this worked - data gets saved, etc.
    However, even though the branch does redirect to the correct page, the page number is still reflected in the url.
    When going back into the branch, you see that the branch has reverted back to a 'branch to page'....    What happened?
    Does the Branch to URL only work from app to app - never WITHIN an app?
    Thanks,
    Rich

    Figured it out.
    In order to eliminate the page number and app number in a 'redirect to URL' , don't keep the '&APP_ID.' or page number -
    You can either use '&APP_ALIAS'. or the alias you set on the page definition... and for the page number use the alias set on the page definition.
    Going back and re-editing the branch (or redirect after action) - it no longer shows that it reverted to 'Redirect to Page'... and keeps the redirect as type URL - just as you manually created it.
    So live and learn.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
    If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.
    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note).

  • How can I set the tab order of text box controls on each page of a tab control?

    I need to be able to select the tabbing order of individual controls on a single page of a tabbed control. How??

    In LV 6.1 an up you should be ablel to right click on the edge of the tab control when the tab-page in question is selected.
    The bttom selcetion in the pop-up is "Reoder controls in page..."
    selecting this option will switch editing modes to allow you to specify the ored, just like in a cluster.
    I seem to remeber in older versions you had to drag the tabable controls off the tab control, specify the tabbing oder and then drag them back on. The oldest version I have on this machine is 6.1 so that all I can speak for at the moment.
    I hope this helps,

  • How do I add multiple pages in one tab

    I am trying to have multiple pages in each tab. Similar to

    That page should appear under the same Features tab.

    so if you go into dreamweaver create a tab panel.
    for each tab there will be a div <div
    class="TabbedPanelsContent">
    just place each pages content within this div tag and you
    should get what you want.
    errr... wrong awnser =D
    U can add the Spry pagin with in your tabs.
    Paging preview;
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/data_region/PagingSample.html
    Or use Spry.Utils.updateContent to change the content of the

    Spry.Utils.updateContent(id, file, callback);

  • When I click a link to open the page in new tab, it open the new page beside my page.

    After I update FireFox to version 3.6.8, I could not open the new page in the last tab, it always opens the new page in beside the tab.
    Mmm…I could not make sure the new page or new tab I said is the same with you…?? (I use Chinese version so that I don’t know if it’s the same or not…)
    A window could open several pages with different tabs, and I could click different tab to different page, right?
    If I right clicked a link to open the page to “new tab” in the same window, the new tab opened in the last tab of my window.
    But after I update FireFox to version 3.6.8 and I click a link to open the page to “new tab” in the same windoe, the new tab will open beside my page. (Mmm…Open on right of my page.)
    I would like the “new tab” open to the last tab in my window, not “beside” the tab I used. How could I change the setting??)
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == After I update FireFox to 3.6.8

    That feature isn't new to 3.6.8, it was changed in 3.6.
    Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter.
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
    Filter = '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''
    Double-click that preference to change the value to '''''false'''''

  • How do I get the home button in Firefox 18.0.1 to open the home pages in existing tabs instead of new tabs? I have tried some add on with no luck.

    I have tried the following Add on - Tab Utilities and Tab Mix Plus.
    Basically on start up of Mozilla, I have five tabs that load. After surfing/working a bit online, I would like to reload the five original tabs back to the original home page/load settings. If I click on the home button, five more tabs load, giving me ten tabs instead of the five original that I desire.
    Are there any other add on that would fix this. I tried the two above but either they do not offer it or I don't know what settings to choose.

    The best way to keep your home page in the tab is to open other links in a new tab with a middle-click.<br />
    Clicking the home page always open a new set, so you would have to close the current tabs first to prevent getting multiple home page sets.<br />
    I don't know if there is still an extension that can open the home pages and replace the current set.

  • When we connect to the internet or visit a new web page, a new tab opens and an alert pops up as follows: "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded"

    When we start the internet or navigate to a new page, a new tab opens with the following alert: "The URL is not valid and cannot be loaded." We "x" out of it, but a new tab, with the same alert appears. The problem occurs again when we try to navigate to another web page. A real nuisance. We've scanned the computer but found nothing but Adware cookies.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the presently open web page in another tab? It used to be Ctrl + N.

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the presently open web page in another tab? It used to be Ctrl + N. This shortcut now opens a Tab with the home page instead of duplicating the web page I'm on.

    Firefox has always opened new tabs in a blank page, so I'm guessing that the way you had it before was added by an extension.
    If you to to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions, are there any extensions disabled?
    In any case, you can still do this with a mouse shortcut. Hold down the Ctrl key as you drag a tab to an empty area on the tab bar.

  • Why can't I scroll or use MMB to open pages in new tab, when I have a PDF file opened in FF4?

    If I have a PDF file opened in firefox 4, I am for unknow reason unable to open pages in new tabs with MMB or scroll thepage up or down. The scroll function isn't working at all, and it seems like I'd be scrolling the PDF file, not the page of my current tab.

    Hi aK'
    Nice, memorable user name!
    -1712 is a timed out error. One reported cause (with other applications) is that the application is attempting to open a large number of files, or a file that no longer exists.
    Try holding down the shift key when launching preview. This prevents the application from attempting to open windows that were not closed before quitting the application.

  • When I closed out of yahoo email, get a blank page on every tab if any are opened. I have to exit out & restart firefox . It does not happen w/any other browser.

    When I sign off on yahoo email. I get a blank page on every tab if any are opened. I have to exit out & restart firefox . It does not happen w/any other browser. I have no malware or viruses. Please advise.

    Actually, it's not obvious & common sense would dictate that users' bookmarks would not be left stuck to random computers even once they've logged out of the account. No one wants that if it's a public work computer or if they're traveling & use an Internet cafe. As I am not the only one who has noticed this issue or had bookmarks disappear/be deleted, in addition, common sense would indicate it's not really a very good system. And carrying around a flashdrive to run Firefox off of it is a good solution? Really? Just curious why a useful feature such as being able to login & use your preferences & bookmarks & then logging out removes your preferences when you're gone hasn't been developed. Yahoo keeps my preferences when I logout (it's called My Yahoo!). Maybe a My Firefox or My Chrome solution could be developed.

  • Error ERR-1412 Unable to resolve page alias

    hi,
    i'm able to get the page by specifying the application id. but unable to get it by using the page alias(ie.,application name). What could be the problem....

    Please show details like the URL you are using and all relevant details about your application and page. The page alias is not the same as the application name. Applications have both a name and an alias as does a page. You might be using the application name or the application alias instead of the page alias.
