Passing variable from a APEX form to PL/SQL Open link in a new borwserwin

Question

Hello Everyone,
I got a apex form based on a query like :
"INTERFACE_NAME",
"INTERFACE_NAME" INTERFACE_NAME_DISPLAY,
"PRIORITY",
"HAS_STARTED",
"EMAIL_TO",
"STATE",
from "#OWNER#"."INTERFACES"
where "INTERFACE_NAME" = :P2_INTERFACE
only the field state is updateble.
It's just allowd to update the data in the DB-table with a PL/SQL Procedure:
begin
set_interface_vals@DB (p_interface_name => :INTERFACE_NAME, p_state => :STATE);
end;
I did put the prodzedure in a Page Process which act with a submit button.
Now to my problem: how do I get the values of my fields INTERFACE_NAME and STATE. the way I done it here does not work.
Thanks for you help.
regards sia

Answer 1

well then , you should be looping over the record invoking that package for each row. Your package handles only one row, isn't it ?
The first thing your should do is find the names of the column fields interface name and state. Open the page source or check it in firebug by looking inside the appropriate columns. The html code will be something like <input type="text" name="f01" value="" />
&lt;input type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;f01&quot; value=&quot;&quot; /&gt; with the name attributes in the format fXX (01 to 50)
I am assuming that the interface name has it as f01 (XX=01) and state is f02 (XX=2), each of which corresponds to an application array(having as many elements as there on the page) by the name "APEX_APPLICATION.G_FXX"
BEGIN
  FOR i IN 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01
  LOOP
    set_interface_vals@DB ( p_interface_name => APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i) --ith row's interface column value
                                    ,p_state => APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02(i)  --ith row's state column value
  END LOOP;
END;
