Page item parameters with comma passed incorrectly

using APEX 3.0, I set up a page with a report with a link column. On the link section of the column, I have set up two items to be set on the following page. However, one of those two values has commas in it, and is not passed correctly. It actually doesn't work even if there's only one parameter. Any suggestions? If the suggestion involves changing the page template, could you make the directions explicit, as I've never done that.
Thanks, -warren

Warren,
Pass the value between backslashes, e.g.if #COLA# will contain comma(s), f?p=.....P1_ITEMA,P1_ITEMB:\#COLA#\,#COLB#

Include page items along with report in CSV export file

I have a classic report and several page items asa apart of a classic report region. They represent various calculations based on the report.
When I export the report it does not include page items in it. Is it possible to include page items as a paart of the report export?
Thanks,

Passing parameters with commas

I'm having a hard time passing a servlet init param that has commas in
          it. I've tried using \, to no avail as well. Is there any way to do

Whats a servlet init param?
          Is it the init method on the Servlet you are talking about?
          or is it the Parameters from a HttpRequest ?
          assuming its the latter,
          for instance input from a multi-Select list box then you may have to
          encode it & decode it on your own. try something like replace all commas
          with some special character that would not appear on the data, or use a
          special combination like ## etc.
          Hope that helps.

Sql report on item - problem with commas in the string

I have a simple report that groups all the Job Titles entered on our database.
I pass the job title to an apex item and then on a second page list the records that match that job title using:
and ed.ede_job_title = :P35_JOB_TITLE
If there is a comma in the job title the report returns the records that match the string up to the point the comma appears not the full string.
So 'Project Manager, Operations' matches all the 'Project Manager' records.
Also when there is a leading space in the job title the report displays the jobtitle without the leading space.
Apologies if this is answered elsewhere, I did search.

Check the actual URL up in the location bar. Your comma may actually be dropping out there, because it isn't encoded such that in value commas can be differentiated from delimiters, so the fields aren't lining up in the URL properly.
When you go to a page that takes in parameters for assignment in the link, it has 2 fields. The first is the comma separated list of the item names on the page to assign, which wouldn't contain commas in their names. The other field in the URL is a comma separated list of values to be assigned to the previous list. Since these values aren't encoded, the comma in the value is picked up as delimiter and not a part of the value. I have an example I can load up to apex.oracle.com if you need.

Get web item parameters with JavaScript

Hello,
I have a web template with a button and an analysis item. The button should execute a JavaScript function that checks if the parameter REPEATED_TEXTS_DISPLAYED of the analysis item is set. If yes, the parameter REPEATED_TEXTS_DISPLAYED should be switched off, if not, it should be switched on.
To implement this I am searching for the JavaScript coding that determines the state of the parameter REPEATED_TEXTS_DISPLAYED of my analysis item.
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks a lot.
DeGe

Hi DeGe,
Yes, you will have only 1 button on/off at any point in time. Plz. proceed as follows. I assume you have 1 ButtonGroup webitem on your template. You would need to add 1 more ButtonGroup webitem to the template such that they are side by side. Name the 1st ButtonGroup webitem's Button as 'Set Repeated Text Display On' & the 2nd ButtonGroup webitem's Button as 'Turn off Repeated Text Display'.
Now on Action of the 1st ButtonGroup webitem's Button, add following Commands using the Command Wizard:-
-- Choose 'SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS' from Commands for Web Items. Select your Analysis webitem here & check 'Display Repeated Texts'
-- Add another Command. Choose 'SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS' from Commands for Web Items. Select ButtonGroup 1 & check 'Visibility' to HIDDEN
-- Add another Command. Choose 'SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS' from Commands for Web Items. Select ButtonGroup 2 & check 'Visibility' to VISIBLE
Now on Action of the 2nd ButtonGroup webitem's Button, add following Commands using the Command Wizard:-
-- Choose 'SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS' from Commands for Web Items. Select your Analysis webitem here & uncheck 'Display Repeated Texts'
-- Add another Command. Choose 'SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS' from Commands for Web Items. Select ButtonGroup 2 & check 'Visibility' to HIDDEN
-- Add another Command. Choose 'SET_ITEM_PARAMETERS' from Commands for Web Items. Select ButtonGroup 1 & check 'Visibility' to VISIBLE
At design time, keep ButtonGroup webitem 1 or 2 HIDDEN depending on what you want the default state to be i.e. repeated text display on or off.

Populate the URL for popupURL from a Table/Page Item?

Dear all,
Would someone please tell me if the URL to run a BIP report can be populated from a table/page item when using popupURL and if so, how?
Background:
I have a Table called TBL_LETTERS with a varchar2 column REPORT_URL
I have a Page (Pg 303) which populates a Text Page Item (P303_REPORT_URL) with an appropriate URL string from the table.
Here is my problem:
I would like to replace my working javascript function (see below):
run myLetter_40()
popupURL('&BI_URL.Guest/DEV/TEST/FRM_40/MM_40/MM_40.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=1&P_CASE_ID=&P303_CASE_ID.&P_PERSON_ID=&P303_PERSON_ID.&_xt=MM_40_xf=rtf');
with something like:
run myLetter_40()
popupURL($x("P303_REPORT_URL").value);
...but this doesn't work.
With my limited javascript knowledge I can only guess that the variables successfully assigned values in my first function example are not successful in my second, I am probably just passing the whole thing as a simple string (like this: +&BI_URL.Guest/DEV/TEST/FRM_40/MM_40/MM_40.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=1&P_CASE_ID=&P303_CASE_ID.&P_PERSON_ID=&P303_PERSON_ID.&_xt=MM_40_xf=rtf+), but would very much welcome any advice.
Do I need to
a. Create the REPORT_URL string differently in the table so that when passed to the Page Item it includes the required variable data?
b. Something completely different?
c. Forget it, it's not possible!
ps. I am using Apex 3.2.1
Thank you in advance.
Sue
Edited by: smp245 on Aug 21, 2012 2:19 PM

Thank you Erik-jan
when I look at the parameter in de popupURL function I notice that you use substitution variables &P303_CASE_ID. and &P303_PERSON_ID.
The value for these variables are filled in by Apex on page rendering.
If you use this same URL in your column REPORT_URL Apex will not fill in the values for these substitution variables.
Yes, this is exactly what is happening.
I would suggest you use option A to build your URL with the desired values.
If the values for &P303_CASE_ID. and &P303_PERSON_ID. are in the same table TBL_LETTERS you could use them to make a pseudo column for the URL string.
&P303_CASE_ID. and &P303_PERSON_ID. are not in the same table. How would it be possible to build the string (to store in the table) so that when it is run javascript identifies the variables?
I have tried building the string in various ways using syntax similar to below but nothing is working:
'&BI_URL.Guest/DEV/TEST/FRM_40/MM_40/MM_40.xdo?_xpf=&_xpt=1&P_CASE_ID=' + &P303_CASE_ID. + '&P_PERSON_ID=' + &P303_PERSON_ID.' &_xt=MM_40_xf=rtf'
Do you have any ideas?
Thanks

Dynamic alignment of report column and page item value

Hi friends,
I have an interactive report which contains the columns like
<li>empno
<li>Name
In the above i have "empno" with a column alignment of left and a "Name" with a column alignment of left.
Whether it is possible to override the data alignment that we set in the report according to the value of the application item like
If my application item value is US, then i need the column alignment of both the column"empno" and "Name" to be left and if my application item value is AR, then i need the column alignment of both the column "empno" and "Name" to be right. Whether is it possible to achieve the dynamic alignment to the report data of both the columns "empno" and "Name" according to the application page item value.
And also in the case of page item i have a page item with a name P1_NAME in which it has a Element Horizontal/Vertical alignment to left.
I need that element alignment of the page item to behave dynamically according to the application page item, like if the application page item is US then the element alignment of the page item has to be left and if the application page item is AR then the element alignment of the page item has to be right.
Whether is it possible to achieve my above two scenario's friends. Kindly help me with this.
Thanks in advance.
Brgds,
Mini

Kees,
Your approach is excellent and brilliant:-)
I tried with your steps and i can achieve those alignment in both ways like you said(either on page load/through DA).
But im going with the DA way. I have certain query regarding this kees.
<li>Suppose if the report, is classic whether i can go with the same approach that i have achieved alignment with the IR report.
<li>Currently through the DA way, i used the page item in the condition. Is it possible to use the application item instead of page item in DA. Because im going to use the application item FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE for getting the code either 'AR' or 'US'.
<li>Finally i need this kind of restriction for the page item also, consider like i have a page item P1_X with an Element Vertical/Horizontal alignment as left. Now i need to change that alignment to right according to the application page item value, hence i can give application item condition for the page item like below
PL-SQL EXPRESSION: :FSP_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE = 'AR'
i need the element alignment of the page item to behave dynamically suppose if the application item value is AR then the element alignment of that page item has to be right if the application item value is US then the element alignment of that page item has to be left, irrespective of the page item Element Vertical/Horizontal alignment that was set to it.
Thanks for your kind help

Question - any way to set a Page Item in a worksheet to default to All ?

Well, I seem to have run across an interesting situation here. I have a table worksheet with page items. I have noticed one thing while testing this new worksheet/workbook. If I pick a value for one of the page items (and with page items, it seems I can only pick one value at a time) and then save the worksheet, close the workbook, and then reopen the workbook and run the worksheet, Discoverer has retained the page item value as the value when I saved it, rather than defaulting back to <All>. So I quickly learned a new lesson with this darn Discoverer product - make sure all page items set to the <All> value before I save a worksheet that I am going to want to promote to Production.
Well, now I have run into a situation where based on the conditions I have to set in the workbook, I have a Page Item in the worksheet that today has only 1 value that pulls into the worksheet. When I do the drop down on that Page Item, it only shows the one value. It does not give me the ability to pick the <All> option. So I am unable to save the workbook with the <All> value today for that page item. There are other potential values for this Page Item that could show up in the future.
Now granted if this were to happen, the Viewer user could do the drop down on the page item at that time and pick the <All> value at that time. But alas, since they are not the owner of the workbook, they could only save as a new workbook, with themselves as the owner - cannot change the production workbook so it would be changed going forward. This also means the user has to realize that they are missing data and that the fixed page item value is the cause of that, which I am skeptical that they will be able to figure out. So I really want this page item value to default to <All> when the users open and run this worksheet.
So here is my question - does anyone know of a way to set the Page Item value to be <All> automatically when a worksheet is run?
I hope this makes some sense. Always a challenge to explain an issue well. It took me a bit to realize that when saving a worksheet/workbook, it was retaining the selected page item values when I performed the save. It is also very unusual to have a situation where a page item does not currently have multiple values. So this may be a situation that few people have run across.
John Dickey

Ah, there is a potential workaround, as I have finally figured out. The workaround does require that you have the ability to bring in multiple values for the page item from the worksheet run result set. If you have a situation, like I have, where today you only have one valid value, you will still have a problem.
The workaround is this. Figure out a way to get multiple values into the worksheet run result set. That way when you do the page item drop down list, you will see the <All> value in that list. Pick that value, refresh the worksheet, and save the workbook. Now reset your worksheet back to your desired conditions, where you end up with just one value in the worksheet result set, and refresh the worksheet. The <All> is still retained as the page item default and when you do the drop down list for the page item, you see two values in the list - your 1 valid value plus the <All> value. So once you get that <All> set as the page item default, then it will be retained. This explains how support originally tested (on an existing worksheet) and said they were able to see and pick the <All> value.
Since it should be rare for something to have just one valid value in a worksheet result set, and even rarer to have just one current valid value in Oracle, this workaround should take care of most of the situations where you might encounter this issue. I still will push for an enhancement request to have that <All> value show in the drop down list even when just one value in the worksheet result set.

SkillBuilders Modal 2.0 plugin with a page-item button - pass parameters

Hi all.
I have an employee table, which is connected with a 1:N relationship to two tables: Emp_Tech_Fields and Emp_Kids.
I've created a form to update / insert employee data, and I want to add two modal pages: one for kids and one for tech_fields. I think this will be the most usable way for this form.
I've created two page-item buttons on that form, which open the respective modal pages successfully, but I can't dynamically pass them the EMP_ID in order to filter the data in them.
Iv'e uploaded an example to http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=64921:1:6401028834215::::: guest / gu12est3
Document Types is a report with a link-column which opens a modal page with data filtering, as it should.
Employees (click an edit link) has two buttons: Kids, which open the modal form, but does not filter, and Tech Fields, which is filtered hard-coded with EMP_ID = 1 (see in the dynamic action definition).
As far as I understand, this should be something quite easy and day-to-day, so I don't know why I did not find a way to do this. What am I missing?
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Dovi.

Hi Dovi,
I had a look at your application and can see the link your using for the kids and tech fields modal isn't passing the session ID which is why it is asking you to log in again.
Below is an example URL for your issue, it isn't tested though.
f?p=&APP_ID.:20:&APP_SESSION.:::19:P20_EMP_ID:&P19_EMP_ID.:: You will need to change the page numbers of the pages and items to match the page numbers of yours. This is using the statically defined url inside the plugin itself, I have also only done this in an earlier version of plugin but believe the functionality is very similar.
Hope this helps.

BUG?: Paginate Doesn't Work with Page Item with Source as Database Column

CREATE TABLE T_PARENT
ID NUMBER NOT NULL
, STAFFID VARCHAR2(20)
, CONSTRAINT PARENT_PK PRIMARY KEY
ID
ENABLE
insert into T_parent values (1, '77258317');

However, if you first submit the page, then paginate, it works as expected.
Reproduced:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=54920:57:106342795192226::::P57_ID:1
If I for e.g. use an item with static assignment, it works fine.
Cheers,
Trent
Edited by: trent on Apr 19, 2013 11:59 AM
Also, it works fine when you reference the PK column.

Just like with the paginate, the problem may also happens when you change the sort column or direction by clicking on the header.
If the item in the WHERE clause was being set fromt he URL this wouldn't be an issue because it would be saved on the Persisten Session state.
Regarding session state, there are two kinds Temporary or in memory and Persistent. When the page is rendering the item values are only on the Temporary session state. This is why the report renders correctly on page load.
The item value won't go to Persistent session state until the page is submitted. Item values also go to Persistent session when they are passed in the URL, or explicitly set with a computation, etc..
The Session state Dialog can only show the Persisten session state which is saved in DB tables. It's unable to show you the values during page render. For that you need other mechanisms like debug messages.
I think that when you set page item as SQL query and Only when current value session state is null the value must be saved to Persistent session state. If you can examine the value with the Session Dialog then that would confirm that.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Discoverer Viewer Report with Page Items Slow Performance

I created a report in Discoverer User that has page items and parameters and runs fine (under 3 minutes) in Discoverer User, but when I try and run it in Discoverer Viewer it takes a long time. It took over 70 minutes before manually terminating it. I made a copy of the report and removed the page items and tried to run it again in Discoverer Viewer and now the report runs in under 3 minutes. Any idea why a report with page items would run in Discoverer user fine, but not discoverer viewer?
I am using Oracle Business Intelligence Plus 10g (10.1.2.55.26)

As long as you can access the middle-tier server where Discoverer Viewer is running, you should be able to run and view Discoverer worksheets.
While it is difficult to even start guessing what the problem might be, if the machine you installed Discoverer on has DHCP addressing, you will run into problems.
Thanks

How do you populate a page item in apex with a value read from excel

Dear All
I am working on application where I am uploading a csv file in oracle apex. I then need to access a value in Cell B2 of the csv file and populate a page item called
:P2100_AUTHORISATION_ID with this value. Many of the examples I have found upload the data using v_data-array into a table but I don't need to do that I just need to get the value from the csv file and then display additional information about the file allowing the user to either or continue or cancel the request to upload. I am running into a small problem that I can't explain and wondered if anyone had any ideas.
Here is the code I am using to try and populate and item called :P2100_AUTHORISATION_ID but when I poulate the item the value is always 0. But if I replace the line :P2100_AUTHORISATION_ID:= v_data_array(2) with a raise_application_error(-20001,v_data_array(2)); The correct value is displayed in the eror. Any Help would be appreciate and I apologise in advance if this akes no sense at all:-)

Hi Joel
Continuing on from my last question, there was something else I want to ask if you dont mind.
Now that I have the v_data_array(2) value in a page item I would like to use as an input value to a procedure to return some information I need displayed on the page. To do this I need to convert it to a number but when I try to so this I get the following error
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error
When I use the wwv_flow.debug that you told me about it is outputting a value '4851 ' so it look like there may be some sort of asii character causing a problem. I have tried using trim(v_data_array(2)) and ascii(v_data_array(2)) but nothing seems to work.
Would you know how to convert a v_data_array value to a number? At the moment I am attemting to do it withiin the same code I attached in my earlier post but I have replaced the assignment of :P2100_AUTHORISATION_ID with the code below where P_BL_WD_DATA_ENTRY.getauthid is the procedure returning the values I need.
:P2100_AUTHORISATION_ID:= P_BL_WD_DATA_ENTRY.getauthid(to_number(v_data_array(2)));

Trouble with using javascript $s function to populate a page item

Hello Oracle APEX Community,
I'm working on a drilldown dashboard page and have been encountering a problem when i try to populate a Text Page Item (hidden or not) using the javascript built in $s function.
The function works great when the data is a number such as dept_id (even if the field type is varchar). However, trying to pass anything which is a text the process fails, except when a value is hard-coded as a parameter for the function. So for example, I have a chart with counts of constituents by state. I would like to populate (filter) a table based on when you click on a bar for a state without having to submit the page. I'm using dynamic actions and a built in javascript function in the SQL for the chart to accomplish this; but again, it works great when I use a varchar field like the FIPS code (i.e. the FIPS for Texas is '48'), but when I try to populate the page item using the state abbreviation 'TX' (again varchar) it fails.
Here's an example of code that works:
SELECT 'javascript:$s("P1_DEPTNO",'||d.deptno||')' LINK,
d.dname LABEL,
sum(e.SAL) sal
FROM emp e, dept d
where e.deptno = d.deptno
group by 'javascript:$s("P1_DEPTNO",'||d.deptno||')', d.dname And here's an example of code that does not work:
SELECT 'javascript:$s("P1_DEPTNO",'||d.loc||')' LINK,
d.dname LABEL,
sum(e.SAL) sal
FROM emp e, dept d
where e.deptno = d.deptno
group by 'javascript:$s("P1_DEPTNO",'||d.loc||')', d.dname However, when I hard code a text value the script works:
SELECT 'javascript:$s("P1_DEPTNO","BOSTON")' LINK,
d.dname LABEL,
sum(e.SAL) sal
FROM emp e, dept d
where e.deptno = d.deptno
group by 'javascript:$s("P1_DEPTNO","BOSTON")', d.dname
ORDER BY d.dname I'm encountering this problem on several versions of APEX: (4.0.2.00.07-local installation) and (4.1.0.00.28-apex.oracle.com)
Does anybody know of this problem and how to solve it? I've looked for settings on the page item itself, and can't figure it out.
I've re-written my sql to utilize the value fields of my tables instead but I have some objects on the page which are really going to depend on the character based data instead.
Thanks,
Wayne

In your javascript you are generating, surround your value with double-quotes and it'll should then always work with both numbers and strings (your strings are probably being interpreted as variable names and they don't exist at runtime, hence erroring out).
Example:
SELECT 'javascript:$s("P1_DEPTNO","'||d.loc||'")' LINK,Edited by: gti_matt on Aug 16, 2011 9:50 AM

How to pass the page item data from tabA to TabB of a discoverer report

I have a discoverer repoort, it is master_detail (Dept-Emp) report
TabA is a master worksheet, which has a page item Deptno
(the data is from a customized query)
TabB is detail report which has a Deptno as the page item
which show the emp detail info on this deptno
(the date is from another customized query).
What I want to do is;
When I change the Deptno in TabA, TabB should automatically change to the deptno of Tab A when I click TabB.
How can I pass the page item deptno from TabA to page item of TabB?
Thanks for your help

Hi.
You are absolutely right, you cannot create a link from Page Item.
My Idea was (and I'm sorry taht I didn't mention it at the beginning) to create one link for each and every column in the report in the TabA.
All these links would be exactly same and pass the Deptno to the TabB.
So the end user can click wherever he wants (all cells on the worksheets have the link to the TabB) and he is always redirected to the TabB with the Department parameter seted to Deptno Page Item from TabA.
As I already said before, it is not exactly what you expected, but it's probably the best you can get out of Plus.

Page Item with Date format DD-MON-RR - APEX 32

Hello,
I am passing date parameter but somehow it is not formatting date properly on calendars.
For e.g.
Below is my calendar query
select distinct count(*) knt, initcap(username) username, to_date(to_char(trunc(timestamp),'DD-MON-RR'),'DD-MON-RR') ts from xrx_master_records
group by initcap(username), trunc(timestamp)In above query TS is the date column that results in DD-MON-RR format.
Then I format column on calendar tab as shown below, here is how I am constructing the link.
But the issue is - #TS# field shows complete date with time stamp for page item P40_DAILY_DATE. i.e. instead of 21-JUL-10, it shows 21-JUL-2010 12:00:00 AM. That means, it is ignoring calendar query and reads straight from database.
How can I make sure that P40_DAILY_DATE item receives date in DD-MON-RR format?
Then, I plan to use P40_DAILY_DATE to connect with the report region by comparing timestamp column from same table with P40_DAILY_DATE.
Please advice.
Thanks,
R

Sorry but, I am expecting a more productive feedback than this.
Let me state the obvious that, this forum is the community of SME who are volunteers. It is the precious help they provide with their insight to questions other members have. Due to the simple fact that it is purely a matter of choice whether to reply questions or not, it is perfectly justified that some of questions remain unanswered. I hope you understand this.
And anyway, what makes you think that those question that remain unanswered on this forum, remain open forever?
