Problems arranging button vertically under a report region

Hi All
I am currently developing an Oracle APEX UI but I’m having difficulty with the arrangement of buttons in the UI.
What I want to achieve is, to arrange 3 buttons vertically, below an Interactive Report Region which is displayed the page,. I want to arrange these buttons on the right hand side below the report region so the right hand edge of the buttons are aligned with the right hand edge of the report region.
Many Thanks in Advance,
Austin

Hello Austin
Regarding the right alignment you could try putting
<p align="right">In your region header.
As for the vertical order of the buttons, create them as "Buttons displayed amongst the regions items", then set them to "Begin on new line"
Good stuff.

Can we have one submit button for mutliple report regions querying same tbl

Hello,
I have a normal multiple report regions in a page with some editable in those regions, these report regions are querying the same table. Now, Is it possible to have one submit button for all the report regions to update the underlying table data?
Can anyone please help me out with this one.
thanks,
Orton

First you'll almost certainly need to roll your own - the built-in stuff is fairly basic and more than likely won't help.
It sounds like your process flow should be something like:
1) Person clicks button.
2) You do a select for update in the process to get the loan id and put it in the person's queue. At this point you may want to flag that column as having been assigned so it can't be assigned again.
3) You then forward them to the form to enter data. Personally I would create my own items and processses and forgo the built-in form stuff but you may be able to use the Automated Row Fetch. If you do your own, you just reference the objects like:
insert into table
values(:P1_1, :P1_2, :P1_3)Edit - Another way would be to use a regular form and insert Stop/Start Tables - so it can look like a different section, but it really is just a label. Thats another option.

Hiding Report Region on button pressed

Hi,
Change your current report region tempalte with 'hide and show region template'.
In apex inbuild template for implementing show and hide region type of report.
Go to the edit page option and in user interface chage your current report region tempalte with the 'hide and show region template'.

Show a report region only when link in other report is clicked

Hi Friends,
I am having 2 report regions.In my first report region i am having a column as a link. I want to show the 2nd report
region only when the link in the 1st report region is clicked. There is a button in the 2nd report region i want to show
that button only when the link in the first report is clicked.
The code for my first report is
select * from tasks;i have a link column task_id as
f?p=&APP_ID.:10:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::P10_TASK_ID:#TASK_ID#My 2nd report code is
select * from task_details where task_id=:P10_TASK_ID;Plz help,
Thanks,
TJ

Hi Andy,
I tried this but having one problem. When i press a link the vaule of P10_TASK_ID is set and the 2nd report is shown.
When i go to other page and come back to this page the 2nd report is showing even with out pressing the link this is
because the value set for :P10_TASK_ID is still there. Where can i put the value back to null so that the 2nd report is
not shown with our pressing the link in the 1st one.
Thanks
TJ

Mutliple report regions on the same page querying same tbl

Hello,
I have a normal multiple report regions in a page with some editable in those regions, these report regions are querying the same table. Now, Is it possible to have one submit button for all the report regions to update the underlying table data?
Can anyone please help me out with this one.
thanks,
Orton

Sure, here are some details:
Oracle apex version: Product Build:4.2.3.00.07
Tables :
STUDENTS - rows : student_id(PK), student_name ...
COURSES - rows: course_id(PK), course_name, course_credit
STUDENT_COURSE - rows: student_id(FK), course_id(FK), student_course_id(PK)
I have a page where I show student's details. On this page I have access to student's id. The name of the field (on the page) is P9_STUDENT_ID. On the same page I want to have a table which is linked to an sql query that lists a student's courses, their credits, names etc.
My sql query is the following:
SELECT courses.course_id, courses.course_name, courses.course_credit
FROM student_course INNER JOIN courses
on courses.course_id = student_course.course_id
WHERE student_course.student_id = 1
Currently it displays all courses of student with Id = 1. I just want to replace this '1' with the actual student_id for the student we are currently displaying information for. Or, in this case P9_STUDENT_ID field's value. Don't know if this is the right way to do this, but still reading for options

Delete buttons in report region & javascript

I managed to add a delete button on each line of my report region using 'Column link' with
text <img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#delete.gif" border="0" alt="Verwijderen Icon">
url f?p=&APP_ID.:504:#APP_SESSION#:TEST:::P504_DELETE_ID_LCNT:#ID#
and some extra coding.
problem is : i'd like to add a javascript:confirmDelete function
In a 'Normal' button you can add it via URL Target.
Can anyone help me ?

This seems to be the way to add javascript to the url-code
f?p=&APP_ID.:504:#APP_SESSION#:TEST:::P504_DELETE_ID_LCNT:#ID#" onClick="javascript:confirmDelete('Are you sure....')
The only problem now is to add some kind of code to javascript to cancel further processing??????
return true or false has no effect.
I tried to set the REQUEST-value but i can't find the solution.
Please help.

Enhancement request: Buttons in report regions

Buttons in Report regions (usually) operate upon the data shown in the report using form input elements like checkboxes, radiobuttons, etc.
When the report returns no rows, the buttons look silly in an empty report region. Clicking them might also do some harm depending on what the after-submit processes do.
IMHO it seems like a worthwhile enhancement for Apex to automatically suppress the rendering of the buttons if the report returns no data (it could piggyback upon the 'No Data Found' message under Report Attributes).
Thanks

Or maybe conditionally? I can think of a case where I get no data back and I want to do something with those buttons, such as "create a new record". I often use form input elements there as filters, so it's possible for our users to come up with a combination of filters that comes back with "no data found" and they need a way (mmmmmm, buttons) to reset the filters and get back to something meaningful.
But the ability to condition the buttons (and other stuff) based on whether or not the report returns data? That could be useful, especially for the situation you describe where clicking them might do harm. The ability to disable the buttons on "no data found" (while still displaying them) could also be nice. That way I could display the buttons and keep the same layout, but they wouldn't be clickable.

The underlying task reported failure on exit - HHD problem

Hi !
I am contacting you because I have a little problem with my ibook g4.
As a matter of a fact, this morning - everything was normal yesterday, maybe a little bit too hot, but well, quite normal - I have noticed something a little bit weird (I am using Tiger, X.4.11), the clock won't appear anymore, as the w-lan logo,. on the upper bar of the desktop.
Well, I have launched Onyx, which says that it seems to be a problem.
Well, I run the Disk Utility, clicking on "verify Disk", and some moments later, a new window appears :
"Disk Utility stopped verifying “iBook” because the following error was encountered:
The underlying task reported failure on exit"
And on the summary, it was written :
"Verifying volume “iBook”
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Invalid sibling link_
The volume iBook needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair"
So, I would like to repair by clicking on the repair button, but which wasn't avaible.
So I have tried a boot from the Tiger cd, and launched the disk Utility from there : it lauch, and it stopped at the same step, but the "repair" button was avaible. I clicked on, but the same message, ""Disk Utility stopped verifying “iBook” because the following error was encountered:
The underlying task reported failure on exit" Appears also, so it seems impossible for the disc to repair it self.
So, I have tried something else, a boot in "safe mode", holding the Shift button during the booting. And well... the results are a little bit weird too : first one, the computer do not even mark it, the second time, the time I think it would have been proceed, the white screen with the searching apple appears, search, search for a while, and then, the computer just.... turn off.
So I am really disappointed, and in a hurry, beeing on my university exam time... I haven't really the time to fix it, but I haven't the choice, and I'm a little bit afraid that my computer has something really important...
Thanks a lot for helping,
Best regards,
T.

Strapontin:
Disk Utility reports "Underlying task reported failure" when repairing a volume is a directory error which DU is not able to repair. The article linked above suggests the use of third party utility. If you have access to one of the following it might help:
Tech Tool Pro
DriveGenius
Disk Warrior
This error is often, though not always, caused by a failing of failed HDD. Do you have the original HDD that came with your computer? If so you might want to consider replacing it, because even if the directory is repaired the drive may not be able to hold the format and the corruption may recur.
Here are some other suggestions you might try:
• Download and install Applejack
• Restart computer holding down Command + S
• When Command line comes up type in
applejack AUTO
Let is run all five functions.
Another option would be to back up your Home Folder, then completely erase and zero out your HDD, reinstall the OS and restore your data from the backup.
Also, take a look at Kappy on Error -9972 and the suggestions there.
Good luck.

Align buttons vertically in sidebar region

Good morning.
Hope someone can help me with a problem I'm having.
How do I align the buttons vertically in my region, they continually appear horizontally.
ie.
<Button1>
<Button2>
<Button3>
not like <Button1> <Button2> <Button3> which is how it looks at the moment.
Some Background Info:
I am using theme 17.
I have a region titled 'Letters' of type 'HTML Text' with a Sidebar Region template displayed in Page Template Body (3..) at Column 2.
Apex version 3.2.1.00.12 (still!)
IE 6 (still!)
I would be very grateful for any advice.
Thanks
Sue

Thanks for your speedy reply.
I am using region buttons.
I did try button items and they looked ok but I couldn't get them to call my javascript functions so I changed them to region buttons.
How would you suggest I change the template? Would you change the button template, the sidebar template or place some css in the page/region header?
Thanks
Sue

Problem with using a Spatial Query in a report region

All: I am trying to create a report region using the below query. The query is syntactically correct and returns 10 rows. I have checked it out in SQL Developer AND in APEX SQL Workshop. It returns rows in 1-2 seconds.
However, after putting the query into a report region, the APEX page locks up when it runs. I've tried masking it in a view, using other functions. I can places the spatial function in the select clause and it works. However, placing the function in the Where clause causes the page to lock up.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
John

Problem using CASE within SELECT in a standard REPORT region

I'm trying to do a CASE-oriented SELECT within a standard REPORT region and the parser is rejecting the SQL statement.
The code I'm using is the following:
SELECT
CASE
WHEN INSTR(citation, '@') > 0 THEN
SUBSTR(citation, 1, INSTR(citation, '@')-1)
|| ':'
|| SUBSTR(citation, INSTR(citation, '@')+1,
LENGTH(citation) - INSTR(citation, '@'))
ELSE citation
END
FROM citation
WHERE obj_table_cd = 'FI'
AND obj_id = :P41_FIND_ID
ORDER BY CITATION
The parser says the (case .... ) is invalid, use column alias. The query works correctly when using SQL_Developer and SQL*PLUS.
My intention is to replace an '@' with ':' within the citation text. The standard citation format should have a colon, but this causes problems with AppExpress, hence the substitution situation.
Any insights on this or on another way to achieve the purpose?
Thanks,
George

George,
You should give a column alias after the END of the case statement:
SELECT
CASE
WHEN INSTR(citation, '@') > 0 THEN
SUBSTR(citation, 1, INSTR(citation, '@')-1)
|| ':'
|| SUBSTR(citation, INSTR(citation, '@')+1,
LENGTH(citation) - INSTR(citation, '@'))
ELSE citation
END citation_col
FROM citation
WHERE obj_table_cd = 'FI'
AND obj_id = :P41_FIND_ID
ORDER BY CITATIONSam

The Problem is about Standard Back Button Function in the Report Program.

The Problem is about Standard Back Button Function in the Report Program.
In the Report,First call screen Then Using "write" output some information,That is ok. but In the GUI When I press back button that is standard button,it exit screen to program.
My question is how can i do When i press back button,the screen can be back forward first screen instand of exit screen to program. Thanks .

Hi,
You can define your own PF-STATUS and in that assign the function code for BACK button anything except 'BACK'.
The code would somewhat look like this:
SET PF-STATUS 'TEST'.
write : itab-col1,
itab-col2.
in the PF-STATUS 'TEST', assign the function code to BACK button as 'BCK'.
Now in your program you can use the event AT USER-COMMAND.
In this you can handle the functionality of BACK button.
Hope this helps.

Himanshu

Report region columns constrained to 4000 chars? Hitting LOV problems.

Hi all,
I've hit a problem that I'm hoping will have a simple answer.
Quick overview of issue:
APEX 3.01 application running against a 10gR2 DB.
We have an LOV defined that works just fine on various forms but in report regions where the LOV is available via a drop down column value in the report region HTML table we are hitting the error:
report error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
Some judicious debugging reveals that this seems to be because we are trying to load in more than 4000 characters into the LOV drop down in the report regions HTML table column (it's a moderately large LOV)..
This suggests that the default column type in a report region HTML table is VARCHAR2 and thus that there is a default 4000 character limit on any such column values, would that be a fair assumption? I know that the actual report row size always used to be limited to a total of 32k but this limit is a new one to me.
If there is such a limit, does anyone have any suggestions on how to work-around it i.e. is it possible to redefine report region column values to be other datatypes/dimensions or should we be looking at using an alternative such as a pop-up instead?
Many thanks.

Hi Scott,
Okay, what we have is a fairly simple Dynamic Page with two report regions (both standard type of 'SQL Query'). The second report region is the one causing us the headache. The column headings are set to 'Custom' but apart from that everything seems as it should be.
The following query populates an HTML table being generated in the second report region (problem line in bold):
SELECT apex_item.hidden(7,task_id)||
apex_item.select_list_from_lov(1, estimate_type, 'TASKSMK', NULL, 'YES', 0,'** Select Task **',NULL, NULL) as "Task Type",
'<img src="/i/themes/aqa/required.gif" alt="Required Field" tabindex="999" />'||apex_item.text(2, description,30,4000,'required="true"') as "Work Item(s)",
dbms_lob.substr(apex_item.select_list_from_lov_xl(3, username, 'PEOPLE', NULL, 'YES', 0, '** Select Resource **', NULL, NULL),4000) as "Resource",
apex_item.text(4, days,5,5) as "Days",
apex_item.text(5, start_date,11,11) as "target Start (dd-mon-yyyy)",
apex_item.text(6, NVL(end_date,ADD_MONTHS(start_date,1)),11,11) as "Target End (DD-MON-YYYY)",
rownum link
FROM
(SELECT t.task_id,
e.estimate_type,
t.description,
t.username ,
t.days,
t.start_date,
t.end_date
FROM estimate e, task t
WHERE e.project_project_id = TO_NUMBER(:F172_PROJECT_ID)
AND e.active_yn = 'Y'
-- and t.days > 0
AND t.ese_id = e.id
--AND e.creation_date = (SELECT MAX(ei.creation_date) FROM estimate ei WHERE ei.project_project_id = e.project_project_id AND ei.active_yn = 'N')
UNION ALL
SELECT 0 task_id,
0 estimate_type,
NULL description,
'0' username,
NULL days,
sysdate start_date,
ADD_MONTHS(sysdate,1) end_date
FROM dual
CONNECT BY LEVEL < = TO_NUMBER(:P19_ROWS_CNT))
All appears well until the number of values being returned in the second LOV (retrieved by the apex_item.select_list_from_lov_xl) exceeds 4000 characters and then we get the error first detailed. The substr around the function isn't usually present, it was added during the debugging, if I allow one more character than the 4000 or remove the substr completely then I get the error again. If the same function is used to retrieve the LOV on a normal Dynamic Form field then all is well, it only seems to have a problem when present in the HTML table being generated.
Are we doing something silly here?
Thanks.

Another "Underlying task reported failure on exit " Disk Utility Problem

So a Problem (at least for me)
I've got an old Powerbook G3 266mhz (headless) acting as a server. It had been up for 258days, and then 2 days ago we had a lightning storm. No big deal, except the cable line got hit, flew through the line and fried my cable modem. In the process of pulling out the modem, I accidentially unplugged my 'server' Plugged it back in, think it crashed, tried again, and then nothing. Thats the story anyhow here's what I've done:
1) managed to boot into the bootloader, did dev /hd .properties (or something like that) and it couldn't find my HD (oh boy)
2) Got out my 10.3 Install disks, booted off them and ran disk Utility, One partition is fine, the other (my primariy) is showing up as disk0s9 instead of 'Nitrogen' not mounting, and when I 'repair disk' it starts okay, and then does this:
-Checking catalog file
-<red>Invalid Key Length</red>
-<red>Volume Check Failed</red>
-<red>Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit (-9972)</red>
3) I checked through the forums and the mentioned 10 different possible reasons for the 'underlying task' error, 'Invalid key length' was not among them.
I do have data on there I want to try to get off, (currently I am downloading ubuntu for PPC to see if I can boot off that, access the drive, and dump it to a networked drive.) As this is an old machine I don't actually have any computers with SCSI connections etc.
Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated
Thanks
G3 Powerbook 266 Mac OS X (10.3.9) (missing powerbook screen (it fell off long time ago)

For what its worth, I went and purchased a copy of Disk Warrior, and was able to get it mostly cleared up Here is what I did do.
-Tried to install Mac OSX 10.3 on the second partition: Said my mac was unable to install 10.3. Which is funny because I had 10.3.9 running on this computer.
-Installed Mac OS 9 on the second paritition. This worked though sometimes had issues on booting.
-Purchased DiskWarrior (download version): Tried to create 10.3 Startup disk, but for some reason couldn't get it to boot from it. The computer kept booting to OS 9. So I copied over the OS 9 Diskwarrior to the second parition.
-I had to reboot in 'extensions-off' mode (hold shift after boot chime) in order to get DiskWarrior to work.
-Disk Warrior recovered and fixed many issues, So I was able to reboot from OSX on the broken drive. However there still seem to be some remaining problems. I am currently in the process of trying to remove all important data and back up so that way I can wipe the HD and reinstall.
Hope this helps anyone else
