Radio group and textarea selection

I have a form with a question like: "How did you hear about us?" and a radio group with some choices. One of the radio group choices is "Other - please describe!". When selected, a text area changes from "read-only" and the user can write something. I am not able to update a record with user's selection in one table field (I can save either radio group selection or text area). Any help? Thank you!

Unfortunately it is not on Internet. But part of the code is this:
if ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) && ($_POST["MM_update"] == "form1")) {
$updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE sarcini SET solutie_6=%s, introd_6=%s WHERE id_question=%s",
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['Proposal_text'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['Full_name'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['id_question'], "int"));
mysql_select_db($database_dbconfig, $dbconfig);
$Result1 = mysql_query($updateSQL, $dbconfig) or die(mysql_error());
$updateGoTo = "Search_answer.php";
if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
    $updateGoTo .= (strpos($updateGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
    $updateGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
header(sprintf("Location: %s", $updateGoTo));
And than:
<INPUT name="Proposal" type="radio" id="Proposal_0" value="No answer." checked="CHECKED">
                No answer.
                </label>
            </div>
              <p align="left">
                  <label>
                <INPUT name="Proposal" type="radio" id="Proposal_2" value="E-mail answer.">
                E-mail proposal</label>
        </p>
            <p align="left">
              <label>
                <INPUT name="Proposal" type="radio" id="Proposal_1" value="I have this answer:">
                I have this answer:</label>
            </p>
            <p>
              <label for="Proposal_text"></label>
              <textarea name="Proposal_text" id="Proposal_text" cols="50" rows="6"></textarea>
I would like to update with: "No answer." , "E-mail answer." or, if id="Proposal_1" is checked, with the values entered by user in textarea "Proposal_text".

Issues with the Radio Group and interactive report

Hi,
I have an interactive report that shows customer names and associated revenues... I want my users to be able to filter customer list by Province and by City in a way that when the user select a province then only associated cities show up (driven by a table)... for the filtration I am using 2 Radio Group items (one for Provinces and the other one for Cities)
Everything is working fine, except for the fact that when I select a province (let's say Prov A) and then select a city (let's say City A1) and again when I select another Province (let's say Prov B) I get the list of all cities associated to Prov B + city A1... Not sure why my previous selection of City is showing up with the list of new cities when I change the province... I SHOULD BE ABLE TO REST ALL CITIES WHEN A NEW PROVINCE IS SELECTED
here is the code
For interactive report
select     CUSTOMER_NAME,
     SUM(YTD) AS YTD
from     T_TABLEA
where
(PROVINCE=
CASE
when :P2_PROV = 'All' THEN PROVINCE
ELSE :P2_PROV
END
and
(CITY=
CASE
when :P2_CITY = 'All' THEN CITY
ELSE :P2_CITY
END
GROUP BY CUSTOMER_NAME
For Province Radio Group I am using a static list:
STATIC2:All;All,Alberta;AB,Ontario;ON,Quebec;PQ,British Columbia;BC
For City, I am using a dynamic list using following code:
select 'All', 'All' return from dual
union
select distinct INITCAP(CITY) display_value, CITY return_value
from T_TABLEA
where
Province = :P2_PROV
order by 1
Thanks

Check the session state of items P2_PROV and *:P2_CITY* when the issue occurs and run the LOV query separately with the session state values.
If that too fetches it wrongly, then you would need to change your query.

Read Only Display of Radio group and Text area with counter not working

Hello,
I am using Apex 3.2, with 10g for the database
I have this form, with fields that will set to read only when status = 'closed'
All of the fields display as read only except for 2. I cannot figure out why this is not working correctly.
1st field is Issues that is a text area with character counter, with a sql query behind it, that is set to null unless the query is pulling in the data.
2nd field is Status which is a radio group that will not display as read only when status = 'closed'
I have other fields on the form with the same format and they change to read only when the status = 'closed', I have even copied the pl/sql expression from one field to these fields and it still doesn't work correctly. I have also tried javascript for an on load event, which works, but once I click on the save button, it disables all of the page items, which works correctly, but I purposely forget to enter information, to make sure the validations are firing correctly, which it does, but the script disables everything, not allowing me to correct the errors. The javascript is firing on the on page load event.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Dung,
That API seems to have a bug, it returns true/false/null, so you could use 'return not nvl(htmldb_util.current_user_in_group(p_group_name => 'APP Admin'),false)' to get a false value.
Unfortunately there's another problem: using the read-only attributes for checkbox or radiogroup item makes them hidden. My suggestion would be to create another item that has disabled="disabled" in the HTML Form Element attribute in the item definition and display that item or the non-disabled item alternately, using conditions based on the current_user_in_group logic.

Help with Radio Group and Web Service

Hi,
I created a Radio Group with Dynamic Entry List (Web Service). It seems my list keeps coming back empty. I am on SP10.
When I deploy I get warnings that "Entry List is missing output fields mapping. I think this is a warning only because I don't have my form connected to any other components. I just want to see the radio group populated. I don't think this is the cause.
I see references out there to this "Dynamic List" not working until SP12? Can anyone add some insight to what is wrong? unsupported until later?
Thanks!

I created a new model and the new model works fine. Something must be cached.

Group and direct selection tools

I am hovering above artwork with both the Direct Selection tool and the Group Selection tool and they both seem to show the same paths and anchor points.
I am also not sure that I see a difference when selection shapes or groups.
1. Is there any difference with the info that is displayed when hovering over shapes and paths with either of these tools?
2. How does using the group selection tool differ from the direct selection tool?

1. there seems to be no difference
2. basically among other uses, the direct selection tool is used to edit paths/segments, and the group selection tool is used to move paths or groups.

Set Radio Group Default Value Based on a Select List Change Event

Apex 4.2
I have a radio group that is source is below. It returns 3 radio group item All,Miv,Courier
SELECT type d, code r FROM vw_lov_depot
WHERE svc_name = :P320_DEPOT
ORDER BY 1
The radio group is only populated when :P320_DEPOT gets a value, this is a select list.
I am trying to set the radio group to default to this value Miv it would use the statement
SELECT type d, code r FROM vw_lov_depot
WHERE svc_name = :P320_DEPOT
and type ='Miv'
ORDER BY 1
I have tried creating a dynamic action on Select list change to populate the default value of the radio group...no joy I also tried a computation. how can I set this default value on when list changed.
Thanks
I have got the default Radio Group Selection working by doing a computation before region on the radio group and calling its select statement and setting the value. But the problem is now I cannot change the radtio group as I do it fire the before region trigger and sets it back to the default value....any help?

Hi,
Could you please create example to apex.oracle.com?

Setting value of items based on a radio group selection

Hi,
I have a radio group with 3 values (let's say A, B, C)... at the moment I have dynamic actions set to hide and unhide items based on the selection from the radio group...
e.g when value A is selected then only item_1 and item_2 are displayed, when value B is selected then only item_3 and item_4 are displayed... and so on...
idea was to let users to only enter information related to specific selection... but with what I currently have, users can select option A from the radio group and can enter information in item_1 and item_2 and then they can change there minds and select option B and start entering information in item_3 and item_4 and when they save the form they potentially could have information in all items (item_1 to item_4 and so on)...
Is there a way I can set the value of certain items to null based on the selection from the radio group... e.g when user select option A, then values of item_3 and item_4 be set to null and if they select option B, then values of item_1 and item2 be set to null...
Please advice how to approach it the best... I would appreciate a step by step solution as I am a new bee...
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You can hide and disable other items.
Disabled items values are not submitted.
And you can create after submit computation that set NULL to item session state according your radio group state

Read-only radio group losing value on validation error

It took quite a while to track this down, but I think I've got it narrowed down properly. I have an APEX form for updating a record in a databse table with a radio group which is conditionally read-only. If that radio group has a value AND is read-only, when the form is submitted and hits a validation error, the value of the radio group is lost.
For example, the radio group SUBMITTED_FOR_APPROVAL is set to Y and is read-only for a given user. That user then changes something else on the form and submits it. However, the form now hits a validation error for some field. When the form reloads with the validation error displayed, all the fields are restored except the read-only radio group which is now blank. If a select list is used with the identical read-only condition, it works fine. Likewise, if a radio group is used, but the read-only condition is removed, it works fine. It is only when it is a radio group and it is read-only, that the value does not appear to be submitted to the session with all the form values whent he form is submitted.
Is this a bug or am I simply missing something?

It's using a shared component LOV cleverly called LOV_YN which consists of a static LOV with
1 Display=Yes, Return=Y
2 Display=No, Return=N
The settings in the LOV section on the item iteself:
Named LOV: LOV_YN
Display Extra values: No Dynamic translation: Not translated
Number of columns: 2 Display null: No
Null display value is blank as is null return value
Item was setup as a radio group and was only converted over to a select list to work around this issue. Let me know what else you need and thanks again.

Displaying a radio group in SQL QUERY report region

Good morning everyone,
I have a report in which a column - ORDER STATUS, will come in with a value of 1, 2 or 3...being order unfilled, order partially filled, or order filled, respectively.
I would like to display the order status as a radio group on the report so that it will be easy to run down the column of radio buttons to see what is filled, etc.
I've gone to the manual and checked the doco on HTMLDB_ITEM.RADIOGROUP. But the example given there is actually for CHECKBOX (is this an error?!?).
I went to the forums and found nothing suitable.
My region is an SQL QUERY. Can I display the STATUS as a radio group in the SELECT ?
This is the question.
Thankyou in anticipation. TC. 23/11/2004

Tony,
There may be better solutions, but here's what I was thinking:    create table orders (id number, status number, customer varchar(30))
    insert into orders (id,status,customer) values(1,1,'ACME')
    insert into orders (id,status,customer) values(2,2,'BENSON')
    insert into orders (id,status,customer) values(3,3,'CLARKE')
    commit
    Query Source
    select
      id "ORDER NUMBER",
      decode(status,
        1,htmldb_item.RADIOGROUP(1,status,'1','unfilled')||htmldb_item.RADIOGROUP(2,status,'2','partial','"disabled=true"')||htmldb_item.RADIOGROUP(3,status,'3','filled','"disabled=true"'),
        2,htmldb_item.RADIOGROUP(1,status,'1','unfilled','"disabled=true"')||htmldb_item.RADIOGROUP(2,status,'2','partial')||htmldb_item.RADIOGROUP(3,status,'3','filled','"disabled=true"'),
        3,htmldb_item.RADIOGROUP(1,status,'1','unfilled','"disabled=true"')||htmldb_item.RADIOGROUP(2,status,'2','partial','"disabled=true"')||htmldb_item.RADIOGROUP(3,status,'3','filled'))
      "STATUS",
      customer "Customer Name"
    from orders;Scott

How to pass HTML radio group value to an SQL query

I need to display a radio group in Printer Friendly Mode so that when the value in the radio group changes the page is submitted and the report is updated to the new value.
I can't use a standard APEX radio group item as it renders in disabled mode when the page is in printer friendly mode.
I have therefore used a standard HTML radio group in a HTML region as follows:
<div id="radio_bank" align="left" class="NonPrintable">
<input type="radio" name="bank" value="Trial Bank"> Trial Bank
<input type="radio" name="bank" value="Tissue Bank" checked> Tissue Bank
<input type="radio" name="bank" value="Temporary Bank"> Temporary Bank
<input type="radio" name="bank" value="All"> All
</div>
I have set up a dynamic action to submit the page on change event. This works but it navigates me to a "Page cannot be found " error page. I have an unconditional branch defined on the current page but this is ignored.
Questions
1) can a standard APEX radio group appear in Printer friendly mode? - This would solve my problem.
2) how to submit the page using the above scenario to render the current page (dynamic action)
3) how to capture the selected value of the radio group and pass it to SQL where clause
thanks in advance

Radio Group With Submit.

Apex 3.2
I have an updateable report based on a collection.
One of the columns is a radio group and is the only updateable column
My code for the column is currently
apex_item.radiogroup(7,seq_id,c008)
I also have a button that fires an update process.
Ideally, I would like to get rid of the button and fire the update, after the user has changed the radio group.
So I changed my code to
apex_item.radiogroup(
              7
            , seq_id
            , c008
            , null
            , null
            , null
            , 'doSubmit(''SUBMIT'')'
            , null
            , null
            , null)
If I click on a different radio group nothing happens.
If I then click on another one, the update fires, but with the value of the previous radio.
Do I need to add something else to
'doSubmit(''SUBMIT'')'
Thanks
Gus

Submitting a page or navigating to another page is not an appropriate action to take on clicking a radio button checkbox:
Setting or clearing a checkbox changes the checkbox's state with no other side-effects. Violating this guideline by associating additional actions with the change of state frequently confuses users, because they are used to configuring data in entry controls such as text boxes, radio buttons, and check boxes and then invoking an action control such as a push button to initiate the action to process the data.
Use radio buttons to select items or options before initiating a submit using an appropriate control. Use buttons and links to submit and navigate to other pages. This enables users to consider their choice and change it before submission.

Dynamic action on "Change" of Radio group value

Hi,
I'm using Apex 4.1 on XE 11G.
If I create a simple dynamic action which shows/hides a field on the change of an item of type select list this works great.
So for example if the value of the select list is 1 then show another field and otherwise hide this other field.
If I change the type of the first field ( the select list ) to a radio group the dynamic action stops working. It looks like the value of the radio group does not get changed when I click another value in the radio group.
I'm somehow able to bypass this by using a dynamic action which fires when the radio group is clicked and then evaluatie it's value via JS, but that's not really the ideal solution.
Is there some basic difference in radio groups and select lists when it comes to storing values and/or dynamic actions which are based on the change event on that item ?
Regards
Bas

Take a look at the Radio group item in HTML DOM using FF/Firebug or IE/DevTools, and you will see the difference.
If you have neither of the 2 debug tools , time you get one.

Radio Group in Master Detail Form

Hi There,
I want to create a radio group with 2 options (Yes, No) for a detail-record within a master-detail form and I would like to save the selected option in a table-column, which is of Varchar2 and has the length of 1 (Y,N).
How can I do that.
I do not have a clue where to start from.
In the guides I just could find ways of how to display information through a sql query in a radio-group and just in master-records.
Thank you!!

Unfortunately it doesn't appear that you can use a radiogroup display for tabular form column definitions. You can however use a select list.
This makes sense because radiogroups could possibly consume far too much page real estate if the LOV was a long list, whereas a select list would always consume the same space no matter how many entries were in the LOV.
If you want to pursue this just make sure that you have a column defined in your detail table with the correct datatype, as you described. Then when you create the detail form view you can modify the report column to display as a select list by going to the Report Attributes tab of the region definition, select the individual column you want to change and in the Tabular Form section of the Column Attrributes set the Display As to a Select List along with the appropriate LOV type, go to the LOV for the column further down the page and select or define the LOV. Click Apply Changes and your on your way.

Radio buttons and SQL

Hi,
I have a column in my database called buy_or_share. I have
the type set at ENUM ('buy', 'share') and default as: buy. I am
building a search page for users to search whether they want to buy
or share (in the form of a radio group) and then a search bar for
the user to type into freely what product, category, or store name
they are seeking.
I have tried to attach dynamic radio feature to the buttons
and I've also tried quite a few different ideas with the recordset,
but nothing has worked. When I search for a product, I am given
results of the product for both buy and share so obviously the
radio group isn't separating the results to either buy or share.
The trouble is that I don't know what I'm doing wrong, is it
something with the radio group? the recordset? the dynamic form
elements? my php code, should I have a conditional statement
surrounding the buttons so that if 'buy' is true then retrieve the
database for 'buy' else 'share' true then get that information,
else neither are true display 'no results'?... Thank you for the
help!
I have attached the relevant code...

Hi,
One way to achieve this would be to
Create an Item 'Radiogroup (with Submit)' called PXX_RADIO and enter 'STATIC:SQL 1;1,SQL 2;2,SQL 3;3' in the List of values definition
Create a region of type 'SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query) and enter
begin
IF :PXX_RADIO = 1
THEN
return 'Select 1 from dual;';
ELSIF :PXX_RADIO = 2
THEN
return 'Select 2,2 from dual;';
ELSIF :PXX_RADIO = 3
THEN
return 'Select 3,3,3 from dual;';
end if;
end;
Set the region to use 'Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)
In the regions conditional display set condition type to 'Value of Item in Expression 1 is NOT NULL' and enter PXX_RADIO in Expression 1
So depending on the value of the radiogroup the relevant SQL is executed.
Hope this helps
Regards
Paul

Read Only for "Group" and "Others" via SMB

I see when Windows vista users of my OS X 10.5.8 server save a file to the server, the permissions show on the server as Read & Write for the owner and Read Only for 'Group' and 'Others'.
Is there a way I can make the OS X server always make 'Group' and 'Others' always be Read & Write?
