Parameters node in forms navigator

Hello.
Is it possible to create parameters with pl/sql code and not just in navigator?
We have two forms. Called form is dynamic parameter form, which looks into table and then shows those columns that are defined in table.
Now we want those columns to fill in with data from the calling form.
Is it possible to dynamically create parameters in form? Because different calling forms can pass different number of parameters.
Example.
If calling form would send one parameter:
add_parameter(p1_id,'p1',TEXT_PARAMETER, :table.item);
OPEN_FORM('dynamic_parameter_form', ACTIVATE, NO_SESSION, p1_id);
Called form would create one parameter.
If calling form would send two parameters:
add_parameter(p1_id,'p1',TEXT_PARAMETER, :table.item);
add_parameter(p1_id,'p2',TEXT_PARAMETER, :table.item1);
OPEN_FORM('dynamic_parameter_form', ACTIVATE, NO_SESSION, p1_id);
Called form would create two parameters.
Any idea?
Thanks.

I think it's not possible.
.. but, Why you don't create a GLOBAL or in forms you manage create n parameters form and then check for NULL or Not NULL and then read them?

Query in Parameters in Oracle Forms 6i

Can any one explain me how to go with parameters in oracle forms 6i's Object Navigator.If explained with an example it will be of great help for me.
Thanks,

Hello,
Forms parameters are usefull to receive a value from a calling form or for a command line.
You can pass a value to a form through these parameters, which value can be read inside the form.
Assume your form have to display only employees of departement 10.
In the parameter node, you create a new parameter then name it : DEPARTEMENT (number)
A the start of this form, you can filter the data in the Where clause property of the block:
DEPTNO = :PARAMETER.DEPARTEMENTand, when the first form call this one, it pass this parameter in the CALL_FORM() built-in
Declare
pl_id PARAMLIST;
pl_name VARCHAR2(10);
Begin
-- create the parameter list --
pl_name := 'temp';
pl_id := get_parameter_list(pl_name);
IF NOT ID_NULL(pl_id) THEN
destroy_parameter_list(pl_id);
END IF;
pl_id := create_parameter_list(pl_name);
-- add the parameter to the list --
add_parameter(pl_id, 'DEPARTEMENT', TEXT_PARAMETER, 10);
-- call the employees dialog --
call_form('EMP_DIALOG', HIDE, NO_REPLACE, NO_QUERY_ONLY, NO_SHARE_LIBRARY_DATA, pl_id);
End ;Hope this is clear enough.

How to get HttpServletRequest parameters from two forms in a JSP

I have this JSP with two forms calling the same servlet. Problem is, when I use a submit button in the second form, I am unable to retrieve the request parameters from the form through the servlet. I am wondering if anybody could give me some info on how to get the request parameters from the second form. I tried to see all the parameter names in the request by calling request.getParameterNames(). But the parameters in the second form are not even seen in the request although I am clicking the submit button in this form!

First, two forms works fine in one jsp so no need to argue about that.
Second, did you put the form actions and type ("multipart/formdata " ?) explicit in every form header ? Did you supply different form names ?
Try to call the submit function through javascript - document.forms[0].submit() for your first, and document.forms[1].submit() for your second form...
Did you forget to close the form tag by chance ?

How to open a page from a Form and pass parameters to the form on that page

I found a similar example on this forum, but it did not work for me:
declare
l_names owa.vc_arr;
l_values owa.vc_arr;
i number;
begin
PORTAL.wwpro_api_parameters.retrieve(l_names, l_values);
FOR i in 1..l_names.count
LOOP
htp.p(l_names(i) || ' ' || l_values(i));
END LOOP;
end;
By using this method i get the parameters for the Form, like the session ID, but not the parameters for the Page that the form is displayed in.
Another method I tried:
To open a Form from a Form and pass parameters works fine like this:
--In the After processing page PL/SQL event.
declare
v_id number;
blk varchar2(10):='DEFAULT';
Begin
v_id:=p_session.get_value_as_number (p_block_name=>blk,p_attribute_name=>'A_ID');
if v_id > 0 then
htp.formOpen('PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=2649500412&p_arg_names=_show_header&p_arg_values=YES&p_arg_names=ID&p_arg_values='||to_char(v_id),'post');
htp.formSubmit(NULL,'Upload Files');
htp.formClose;
end if;
End;
But I want to open a Page containing the Form instead of just opening the Form. Is this possible to open a Page and pass paramters to the page, and then let the form inside the Page access the passed paramters. The reason for this is that a Form cannot be based on a page template, or can it? When opening the form i want to keep the left menu, which I can if it is a page based on my template with the left menu.
Best regards
Halvor

Hi,
You can do this by calling the url of the page with the form. You can then use p_arg_names and p_arg_values to pass parameters. In the called form you can get the value from p_arg_names and p_arg_values and assign it to the form field.
You can call this code in the success procedure of the calling form.
declare
v_id number;
blk varchar2(10):='DEFAULT';
v_url varchar2(2000);
Begin
v_id:=p_session.get_value_as_number (p_block_name=>blk,p_attribute_name=>'A_ID');
v_url := <page_url>;
if v_id > 0 then
call(v_url||'&p_arg_names=id&p_arg_values='||v_id);
end if;
End;
In the called form in "Before displaying form" plsql section write this code.
for i in 1..p_arg_names.count loop
if p_arg_names(i) = 'id' then
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_ID',
p_value => p_arg_values(i)
end if;
end loop;
This code picks up the value from p_arg_values and assigns it to the form field.
Hope that helps.
Thanks,
Sharmila

How to define parameters in a FORM portlet

Is there a way to define parameters in a form portlet? I am trying to create a form with the "OmniPortlet-Simple Parameter Form" functionality so that I can have dynamic LOVs instead of hard-coded ones.

Are you trying to create this with a normal portal form?
If that is the case then, it is not possible to have parameters in forms. (I mean, you will not be able to dynamically change the LOV).
Thanx,
Chetan.

I would like to know if i want to get back the parameters from the form ,
is that i must use Enumeration.
Because i have tried request.getParameter() to get the value of radio button, textbox, checkbox and select menu, but it get the null values.
Also, the function of Enumeration does not get the values of parameter in sequence as html form. e.g.In the html file, the first parameters should be textbox,but it displays the radio button's values first.
How to solve the problem .
Thanks

This sounds like a bug in the smart upload code. I have used this stuff before, but it's probably an older version, so maybe they broke something. Enumerations aren't usually guaranteed to keep things in any particular order. I would say for now, make a method to take the enumeration and a param name to find the value. And write to the JSPSmart people.

How to pass Parameters between two forms

im trying to do this but i could not find any way for this.
can any one help me how can i pass parameters between two forms
in forms4.5. any help will be appreciated
thanks.

Global variables can be used, but you can do what the online help
says ...
Parameters are passed to called forms by means of a parameter
list. A parameter list is a named programmatic construct that is
simply a list of parameter names (called keys) and their values.
You can pass parameter values to forms invoked by the built-in
subprograms CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM, and NEW_FORM. In addition, you
can pass parameter values to other Oracle tools with the
RUN_PRODUCT procedure.
A parameter you include in a parameter list can be either a text
parameter or a data parameter. The parameter type determines how
its value is interpreted.
Text Parameters The value of a text parameter being passed to a
called product is a CHAR string that can represent the following:
n a user-defined form parameter defined in a form invoked
by the CALL_FORM, OPEN_FORM, or NEW_FORM built-in subprograms
n a command line or user-defined parameter for a product
invoked with the RUN_PRODUCT built-in subprogram
Data Parameters The value of a data parameter being passed to a
called product is always the name of a record group defined in
the current form. (A record group is a data structure that
stores records derived from a query or through programmatic
assignment.) Data parameters are used to pass data to products
invoked with the RUN_PRODUCT built-in subprogram. You cannot
pass data parameters to forms.
The following table shows the structure of a parameter list that
contains four parameters:
Key Paramtype Value
CITY Text_Parameter 'BOGOTA'
CATEGORY Text_Parameter 'EXPORTS'
MULTIPLIER Text_Parameter '.0275'
NEW_DATA Data_Parameter 'RECORD_GROUP8'

Passing parameters from one form to another

Hi,
I'm trying to pass parameters from 1 form to another. I would be able to call the form, but the parameters are not passed to the calling form. I do not know what's the problem. Basically, the 2nd form shows up with blank values in all the fields. Below is my code. Anybody expert in this, pl. help.
By the way my 1st form is based on PROCEDURE.
declare
s_requestor           number(10);
s_customer_impact      varchar2(4000);
s_creation_date      date;
l_url                varchar2(4000);
blk               varchar2(10) := 'DEFAULT';
begin
p_session.set_value(
p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_REQUESTOR',
p_value => 88888);
s_requestor := p_session.get_value_as_number
(p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_REQUESTOR');
s_customer_impact := p_session.get_value_as_varchar2
(p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_CUSTOMER_IMPACT');
s_creation_date := p_session.get_value_as_date
(p_block_name => blk,
p_attribute_name => 'A_P_CREATION_DATE');
l_url:=('/pls/portal/PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link?
p_arg_names=_moduleid&p_arg_values=1794837934&
p_arg_names=_show_header&p_arg_values=YES&
p_arg_names=REQUESTOR&p_arg_values='||s_requestor||'&
p_arg_names=CREATION_DATE&p_arg_values='||s_creation_date||'&
p_arg_names=CUSTOMER_IMPACT&p_arg_values='||s_customer_impact);
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.set_target(l_url);
end;

the way to call one form from another and pass values for parameters from the procedure is like this:
PORTAL.wwa_app_module.link (
p_arg_names => PORTAL.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2('_moduleid:_show_header:REQUESTOR:CREATION_DATE'),
p_arg_values => PORTAL.wwv_standard_util.string_to_table2('1191314879:YES:'||s_requestor||':'||s_creation_date));
and so on.
Hope it works for you

Displaying header and border on a dynamic page passing parameters to a form

I am using portals 10.1.4. and am trying to pass parameters to a form which appears as a portlet on a page.
for this, dynamic page has been used to pass parameters to that desired form. my problem is this that when the form is displayed with parameters, the header and borders of the portlet disappear.
The check-boxes for header and borders of the portlets on the page are checked. Yet, when for any reason, the parameters are not passed into the dynamic page, the header of the dynamic page and border are displayed. But when the parameters are passed and the form shows up, then the header and borders disappear.
can anyone help me with the following:
- is it the desired behavior?
- how can i get the headers and borders reappear?
thanks

Any ideas fellows?
how can we control the border and header of dynamic pages when a form or report is called from them with passed parameters?
will appreciate any helpful experiences.

Parameterized Active Sync Form generating random password

Hi im looking for an sample of an Parameterized Active Sync Form which generates a random password.
Thanks!
Michael

--I think password from AD not put in to activeSync.
--Why?
You cannot change the user's password from the activeSync RA. The password is encrypted in Active Directory and you can't decrypt it.
You can read the Idm Resources Reference - Active Directory. There's a table with all the supported fields; the userPassword field is write-only.
If you want to take the AD password and send it to IDM, you want to use Password Sync.
Good luck
