Popup Lov referencing page item Problem

Hi,
I try to display a list in a popup lov item. This item references an another item in the page :
select NOM d,EMAIL r from ACTEURS
where ID_DOSSIER = :P16_ID_DOSSIER_PRINCIPAL
If i make the id_dossier directly as a number, the popup works and display the list, but if i make the item :P16_ID_DOSSIER_PRINCIPAL it dos'nt work.
Please help !
Thanks

User,
Changes are there is a process that is resetting the session state for the page that has the item you're trying to reference. One suggestion would be to create a hidden item on the same page that you have the LOV item that referenced the item on the other page. Then make a page process on the "other" page that sets your new item with the value of the other item before session state is reset. Then just modify your query to reference your new item.
If you put an example up on apex.oracle.com and provided the workspace/username/password (you can create a new user account for this) I'll take a closer look.

Disabling Popup LOV (named LOV) cell in my tabular form

Hello.
I have a tabular form.
I have a column where I insert values based on the named list of values. I make the field of "Popup LOV (named LOV)" type. However, ApEx allows the values to be either picked from the popup list or entered manually into the field's text field. I want to prevent the user from being able to manuall enter the values into the field and force the use of the popup LOV.
I know that selecting Popup LOVs for regular items in a region make the text field "disabled" disallowing direct entering of values. However, for tabular forms' fields, this does not seem to be the case.
Is there a style I can add to the attribute to make this happen?
thanks
Boris

Hi Boris,
I'm glad that you are learning things through this forum!
You can't validate tabular form items using the normal Item Level validation - as this is for page item names only (that is, P1_EMPNO for example).
You can do validation using PL/SQL in a Page Level Validation. There are a number of examples on how to do this on this forum. Here's one by Denes: [http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:41]
When you submit a tabular form page, Apex creates collections for each "fnn" set of items. "f01" items are stored in APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01, "f02" items are stored in APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02 and so on. To validate any item, you loop through one collection and check its value or the values in the same position on the other collections.
In Denes's example, he is looping through the "f02" items (that is APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02 from 1 to APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02.COUNT) and checks the values in the "f07" (APEX_APPLICATION.G_F07) and "f08" (APEX_APPLICATION.G_F08) items. The items are stored in their collections in the same order as they appear on the page, the first item in G_F01 is on the same row as the first item in G_F07 and so on. The validation(s) to perform will depend on your requirements.
In the example, Denes is using a "Function Returning Error Text" validation. In these, you either return a string containing the error or NULL (meaning no error has been found).

Passing Request to a POPUP LOV from previous page

Hi All,
I'm stuck again :( and its urgent..
I have a popup LOV and i want to populate values in it based on REQUEST coming from first page.
If I click CREATE on first page POPUP LOV should display certain values and if I click UPDATE on first page, it should populate different set of values.
Also when I navigate further from this page and return back, the LOV's should have values based on previous request selected.
For this I have created an item P_REQ which stores value of request from first page i.e :P_REQ wil have values CREATE or UPDATE.
Now I'm able to pass this value to a select list. However a POPUP list is not able to fetch this P_REQ value.
MY query for LOV is as below
select d1 d ,r1 r
from
(select name d1 ,ID r1,'C' up_cr
FROM Client
'WHERE statusid in (1,3)
union
select name d1,ClientID r1,'U' up_cr
FROM Client_List)
where up_cr = decode(:P_REQ,'CREATE','C','U')
ORDER BY d1
Kindly help.. Its Urgent..

Hi,
If you use that computation to set the value of P_REQ it is actually also saving it in the session. The value stored can then be retrieved by the popup LOVs query using :P_REQ so you don't need to pass the value at all as it is already available.
To see this, go to: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=33642:237] The list of employees has INSERT or UPDATE in the final column. This is used in the link on the EMPNO column as the "Request" setting. This link passes you to another page which uses the computation to set the value in P238_REQUEST (this is displayed on the screen). Then you have a link to "Open popup". All this does is open another page which has a region with a source of: Request value: &P238_REQUEST.

Compute the window's URL of a POPUP LOV item

Hello,
I am using Application Express 4.1.
I want to open the popup window of a popup LOV item when I click on a button which is on the same page.
The URL of the popup LOV window looks like:
wwv_flow.show?p_flow_id=300&p_flow_step_id=403&p_instance=1862497391551148&p_request=NATIVE%3D0BF14BB1E17791744D35BEBACED33B707AF740A5D0F8159D03641E52D40C81C9
I managed to build this URL but I am missing the end of it:
wwv_flow.show?p_flow_id=&APP_ID.&p_flow_step_id=&APP_PAGE_ID.&p_instance=&APP_SESSION.&p_request=???????
Does anyone know where this 'NATIVE%3D0BF14BB1E17791744D35BEBACED33B707AF740A5D0F8159D03641E52D40C81C9' come from? It is different every time I log into the application.
What I am trying to do here is to have a button next to a text with autocomplete item that opens a POPUP LOV. That is why I need this URL.
Thank you for your help.

Sorry indeed I did not write back earlier but I got bizzy inaugurating an iMac I just bought on ebay. Quite a change from my ole' Ti !!!
Even when I try to open a recent stream and do Ctrl+U, it stays blank. I use this procedure to copy the url of streaming sequences on the web that cannot be read on QT to paste them into i.e. wmp. And that's not possible anymore. I downloaded a new version from QT, but there a cookie or something with the pro version I bought that re-installs the same flaw over & over. When I go to the register menu, the license n° is already there, and I cannot get rid of my scewed up version.
Now about this page code thing, I can't believe one cannot choose the reader he wants ! I don't know how to work on page codes. I want to the internet plug-ins in the library & removed the qt file, but no dice, I'm condamned to use only qt in safari or firefox!
If you have a clue, thanks for a kind reply.
Again sorry it took me so long to answer.

Problem with popup in a page fragment

JDev 11.1.2.1
I'm using the code described here to launch popup from a backing bean.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/oct2010-otn-harvest-183714.pdf
How-to launch a popup programmatically from Java
Starting Oracle JDeveloper 11.1.1.3, instance of af:popup can be opened using a Java method on the RichPopup object. The RichPopup class is the bean implementation of the af:popup ADF Faces tag. To launch a popup from a managed bean, you first need to get a hold on to a rich popup instance, which you can do by searching it on the UIViewRoot or by referencing a JSF component binding – which you create using the "binding" property of the af:popup component tag. To open the popup you then call
RichPopup.PopupHints ph = new RichPopup.PopupHints(); popup.show(ph);
It works fine except when the popup is inside a page fragment.
In IE 7 I get the javascript error message
"this.getDomNode().parentNode' is null or not an object"
I have also tried the following code; that works fine except when the popup is inside a page fragment.
FacesContext context = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
String popupId = popup.getClientId(context);
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExtendedRenderKitService service =
Service.getRenderKitService(facesContext,
ExtendedRenderKitService.class);
service.addScript(facesContext,
"AdfPage.PAGE.findComponent('" + popupId + "').show();");
Any idea how to launch a popup in a page fragment?

Since this is working for others I'm working on a test case to send to oracle.
I'll try to give more information.

How to wrap the text in a popup LOV item ( Apex 4.0 )

Hi
I have a popup LOV type item with a very long string value
I would like to format the item so itr will be shorter but have the string wrap to multiple lines.
Can you let me know how that can be achieved ?
thanks
O

Hmm.. I don't know about that.
I actually already managed to change the width of a specific popup element by putting the following in the region footer :
<script type="text/javascript">
$x('P3_CONTRACT').style.height="20px";
</script>
that works fine and only impacts that specific element.
However , Since I know next to nothing of HTML and Javascript , I could not figure out the code to put to make the text wrap.
your solution suggests that it will take care of the width , but will it cause the words to wrap ?
thanks

How to make one of the columns in my tabular an text item with popup lov

Hello,
I want to manually make one of the columns say for the deptno in my tabular form as on text item popup lov using apex_item package
and whenever user clicks on the text item popup lov, it should open up an dept table report and from which he/she needs to select
the deptno and this deptno should be returned into the text item popup lov column.
like for example: say if i have an emp table tabular form with all the columns and deptno column as an popup lov and when user clicks on this column
it should open up an new sql report(similar to popup lov window), the select statement for this would be
select deptno,dname,loc from dept order by 1;
And from this popup lov report whenever an user selects a particular deptno, the same deptno should be returned to my text item popup column in emp tabular form.
something like this
select
"EMPNO",
"EMPNO" EMPNO_DISPLAY,
"ENAME",
"JOB",
"MGR",
"HIREDATE",
"SAL",
"COMM",
APEX_ITEM.TEXT(3,deptno,20,50,'readonly=true') || '<img height="16" align="middle" width="16" style="vertical-align: middle;" alt="Popup Lov" src="/i/lov_16x16.gif"/>' deptno
from "#OWNER#"."EMP"
like i made my column as an text item lov and now I want to write an onclick event for the text item lov so that an popup window is displayed which is a sql report of the table dept (select deptno,dname,loc from dept order by 1;) and in this report i want to make deptno as an link so that when ever an user clicks on it
-- this value should be returned to my text item popup lov column deptno in the emp tabular form.
can anyone help me out with this issue.
thanks,

How to put an image in the popup help of a page item?

I am using APEX 2.2. I want to put an image in the help text of a page input item.
This is the help text:
Some help text....
<p><img src="&APP_IMAGES.auto_lov.jpg" /></p>This is rendered as:
<p><img src="wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=0&p_flow_id=103&p_fname=auto_lov.jpg" /></p>As you can see, the application id is not returned.
If I put exactly the same text in a html region, the image is correctly displayed:
<p><img src="wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=844129086577364&p_flow_id=103&p_fname=auto_lov.jpg" />So, is it possible at all to put in image in the popup help text of a page item?

I solved it by putting the jpg file in an images directory on the web server instead of in the database. Not really what I want, but it works.
<p><img src="&IMAGE_PREFIX./apps/auto_lov.jpg" /></p>

Refresh only page item while submitting data from the popup window

Hi All,
I'm pretty new to Apex .....
I have a form with text items as first few entries and then a radio button list and few text items again. On selecting certain radio button I have a popup window which acts as an interface for the next text item in the calling page. The purpose of having the popup window is that the text item following the radio button takes the input with certain character delimiters along with the data. Instead of using delimiters while entering the data I want a meaningful data to be keyed in the popup window and all the string operation to be done as a background process. I have been successful this far. I'm using the below javascript on click of the submit button.
javascript:doSubmit();
window.opener.doSubmit('REFRESH');
window.close();
On doing this I'm losing the values submitted for the items prior to the radio button(including radio button). Please note, I have a dynamic action set on page load to reset the values. Is it possible to refresh just the page item from the popup window.
Also, I tried excluding the window.opener.doSubmit('REFRESH'); from the above javascript. It sets the item with the expected value (viewed it in the session items, however I would like to view the concatenated string on my calling page) but following this there is an insert operation which uses all the necessary items in the form. All values except the value returned from the popup window is populated into the table. Am I missing something.
Any help in this regard is appreciated.
Thank you!!!
Regards,
Ganesh

Value set using Javascript is only in your browser page but is not yet available in the session. This is why the report doesn't return the expected output.
Before refreshing the report you would need to set the session state of this item.
You can set it after you assign the item a new value or before the report is refreshed
For Interactive Reports, this is available built in
you can go to Report Attributes >Advanced Attributes -> Page Items to Submit and specify P2_X1 for the field(and any other page item that the report is dependent on)
For standard reports, you can create a Dynamic Action that is triggered "before refresh" of the report's region, and choose PLSQL as the action types, give a dummy BEGIN NULL END; for the code and specify this item name in the page item to submit field so that it sets the items's value in session.

Problem in displaying selected page items in the title in Graph

Hi There;
I have a problem in displaying selected value of named page item in the graphs.
Eg. I have in my worksheet a page item named "Location"; when I use "&WorksheetName &Location" in the title of worksheet it is displaying both the worksheet title and value of selected page item "Location" in my example.
But when I use the same (&WorksheetName &Location) in the title of graph or Axis of the graph, it would show up only the name of the worksheet but not the value of page item "Location", instead it would print "&Location"
Any idea why it is not able to reference the select page item in Discoverer graph? I am using Oracle BI Discoverer 10.1.2.1.
Thanks in Advance,
Regards,
Nidhi Jethoo

Hi Michael;
Thanks a lot. It might not have been considered necessary but you do require, e.g in my case I am plotting Average value of a Parameter and it does make sense in including the name/value of Parameter(surface water temp/bottom watter temp) as an Axis instead of just a constant Parameter or say Average Parameter. So that user can plot the variation of different parameters by changing the page items and when user changes the value of parameter and export the graph he/she has the parameter name(actual value) in the graph.
But I can include all the parameters (&Parameters) or all the page items(using &PageItems) in graph then why not individual page-item and individual parameter.
I would log a SR and see what they say.
Thanks again,
Nidhi

Problems with customizing select lists and popup LOVs

Hi
I have 2 problems about select lists and popup LOVs.
The first one is about a select list in a tabular form.
It should be created with APEX_ITEM.SELECT_LIST_FROM_LOV or similar and take its values from a named LOV.
This worked fine but now it should also have the possibility to enter a free value.
I tried to accomplish that by creating a APEX_ITEM.POPUP_FROM_LOV, but there is a problem with the function that is called by the arrow icon right to the input field (for eg. genList_f11_5()).
If the row is added by addRow, then it works fine, but if the row is is not empty
then the function call is like genList_f11_$_row() and the input field gets no value, when a LOV option is selected.
The other problem is about a select list which should have the possibility to enter a custom value and
also there should be the possibility to select several values. I tried to implement this by a text area containing the selected values and a multiple select list, with an event handler in each option. The user could click options and they would be copied to the text area. The problem is that I couldn't make the event handler work in IE.
I would appreciate any ideas about either of these problems.

Hi,
If you download application you can see source.
I have not write any instructions, sorry.
If you are on Apex 4 you can just load jQuery UI autocomplete library and take ideas from my app.
If you download my sample in zip there is uncompressed htmldbQuery library.
You can see that and take only function htmldbAutocomplete.
Then check jQuery UI document
http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/#method-search
There is method search that you can use open list just by click of input.
I hope this helps at start.

Is there a problem using popup LOVs in a portal form with a bind variable?

I have a portal form with 2 LOVs. The second LOV is a dependent LOV whose bind variable can be NULL. I have read Note 263923.1, "How To Create Dependent Lovs In Forms", and my form works as long as I use combo boxes to display the LOVs. I need to use popups so the user can search the LOVs as they are quite lengthy. Plus I want to be able to pick a value from my second LOV without selecting a value from the first LOV -- hence, my bind variable can be null and that is where my problem lies. As long as I select a value from the first LOV, the second LOV popup will work. If I click on the icon to display the second LOV without pre-selected a value from the first LOV, I get the following error:
POPUP LOV ERROR:
LOV: "9A17692880B6B8509F514F5B9CA9EC808DD403218B3CF19A33C04CD1FAB0ADE17ADC33E6B67998A933357CE5264D204E"
Parse Message: Parse as pre-set global: "TORE".
Find Message: LOV is of type DYNAMIC (LOV based on SQL query).
Query: "SELECT ...."
wwv_bind.prepare_bind: ORA-01403: no data found
My form is based on a table with a custom layout. The sql for the second LOV is similar to: SELECT ENAME, EMPNO FROM SCOTT.EMP WHERE (DEPTNO = :DEPT AND :DEPT IS NOT NULL) OR :DEPT IS NULL.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Carol

Don't use EPS any more! It does not support transparency nor color management.
If you save vector files from Illustrator, use AI with PDF compatiblity.
If you save image files from Photoshop, use PSD.
If you save image files combined with vector forms and/or text from Photoshop, use PDP which is a Photoshop PDF.
For vectors from Illustrator use CMYK files.
For images use RGB, conversion to CMYK should never done before PDF export, better, if the printer allows it, is to export a PDF with live transparency as it is PDF/X-4
If the printer requires a PDF with CMYK only export a PDF/X-1a.

Need - Search page with LOV based flexfield item as search criteria

Our requirement is to make a flexfield item as search criteria.
Flexfield is having 2 segments Applicaiton and Responsibility, where 2nd segment *(Responsibility) is dependent on 1st (Application).*
Accordingly, an LOV must get displayed for each flex segment in the search panel.
We tried to create a page having this flex (DFF) item as a search criteria, but cannot proceed to get results in results region - we tried to use both properties in the query region - resultsbasedSearch and autocustomizationCriteria:
Any ideas how to make a search functionality having LOV based flexfield items in the search criteria?
Any other suggestions regarding the solution are welcome.
Thank you very much.

I had a report in Apex 3.2 in XE 10g. The type of field was popup lov(editable)
i defined a trigger on change to load data from database and fill anothers fields.
to know in wich row change this field i have the nex javascript code
var vRow = pThis.id.substr(pThis.id.indexOf('_')+1);
in this release works fine and return 1 (0001) for the first rows, etc etc
in the new version 4.0.2.00.08 in XE 11g the same code return 0000, but if i put a trigger in a field(column)(editable too) of the same row returns 0001, Is this a bug? or in apex 4 change the ordinal of rows for popup lovs only?
thanks
