Radio Group read-only bug?

I appologize if this has already been posted - I couldn't find it in a search.
It seems that when a radio group is set to read-only, the input elements have an empty name attribute. This causes all but the last radio group to have no checked value.
Is this a known bug? or do I have something set up wrong? If it is a bug, is there a workaround?
Thanks,
Eric

Eric - Didn't know about this. Thanks. Maybe don't use the read-only option and achieve a similar effect with your own attribues on the html.

Radio group read only problem

Hi,
I have three radio group items that are defined EXACTLY the same except for the label and associated database column. Each radio group item uses the same named LOV for "Yes" and "No". Each field contains either a "Y" or "N" value.
When the "read-only" condition is satisfied, two of the three radio group items incorrectly do not have either the "Yes" or "No" radio button checked. When I change all three fields from "radio group" to "select list" then all three fields display either a "Yes" or "No" value correctly.
Doesn't the radio group work when the read-only condition is satisfied? Is there a work-around to it?
Thanks, Andy

We are using APEX version 2.0.
Has this been fixed in version 2.2?

All new files have 644 (group read only) permissions!?

Why do all new files created through AFP have rw-r--r-- (644) permissions? I haven't figured out any way to change it so the group can read and write the new files, without manually chmoding them to something useful.
OS X Server 10.3 and 10.4 didn't have this problem, nor did any other server OS I've ever used. Is this a feature? Is there something obvious I'm missing!?
The server sure doesn't seem very useful when only the person who created the file can edit it...seems to defeat the purpose of a file server, no?
Please help!

Are you using ACLs on that volume so files can inherit priviledges from the folder you put them in?
In Tiger you could choose betwen using POSIX inherited priviledges and ACLs.
In Leopard ACLs are on by default but you have to set/enforce them in Server Admin.
But I hav to admit I'm a bit bewildered about "inherit" setting in Leopard Server Admin.

Read Only access for a Maintenance view

Hi All,
I have a requirement like this.
There is a Z Maintenance View (namely ZVHR_GRD_TARGET), for this i have to maintain the status as Read Only, and have to create a transaction code for this view with only SE16 access.
I am doing like this.
In the Z view, in the tab "Maint. Status", i have selected the radio button "Read Only" and saved it.
I have created a transaction code for this view with SE16 access with the inputs
Transaction                                                           SE16
Selected the check box "Skip Intial Screen"
Selected the check box for GUI status
Name of the Screenfield                                          DATABROWSE-TABLENAME
value                                                                      ZVHR_GRD_TARGET (i.e, view name)
But the transaction code is not executing.
So can any help me out in the requirement

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?

I can't get formMail.php to recognize my simple Spry Radio Group button

I don't know php at all, but I have a dreamweaver form that sends its information to a document called "formmail.php" and that sends the email to me.
I was able to add text fields by duplicating the text field code in the formmail.php file and it does work, BUT i don't know what code should be on the file to process the radio button information. The radio button group is made up of 2 buttons "Yes" and "No"
This is a abbreviated version of "formmail.php"
<body>
<?php
$name=addslashes($_POST['name']);
$address=addslashes($_POST['address']);
$email=addslashes($_POST['email']);
$radioGroup1=addslashes($_POST['arrangements']);
$comments=addslashes($_POST['message']);
// you can specify which email you want your contact form to be emailed to here
$toemail = "[email protected]";
$subject = "From the VFS website";
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n"
 ."From: \"".$name."\" <".$email.">\n"
 ."Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
$body = "Name: ".$name." \n"
 ."Address: ".$address." \n"
."Email: ".$email." \n"
."Have you made pre-arrangements?: ".$radioGroup1." \n"
 ."Comments: \n"
 .$comments;
if (!ereg("^[a-zA-Z0-9_]+@[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9\-\.]+$", $email))
 echo "That is not a valid email address. Please return to the"
 ." previous page and try again.";
 exit;
 mail($toemail, $subject, $body, $headers);
 echo "Thanks for submitting your comments";
?>
</body>
</html>
And this is what the code for my Spry Radio Group button is looking like.

 <label>
 <input type="radio" name="RadioGroup1" value="Yes" id="RadioGroup1_0">
 Yes </label>
 <label>
 <input type="radio" name="RadioGroup1" value="No" id="RadioGroup1_1">
 No</label>
 
 

Please help - I'm lost!

The post form method gets a variable, by name and sends that value to your processor. You have called $_POST['attachments'] which is the name of the container tag and not of the radio group. So change:
$radioGroup1=addslashes($_POST['arrangements']);
to
$radioGroup1=addslashes($_POST['RadioGroup1']);
That changes the arrangements to the RadioGroup1 which is the name you gave the radio group.

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.
Mary

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.

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.

Default Setting for a Radio Group not activated when Read-Only

I have an Item on a page that is a Yes/No radio group. It is conditional read-only and has a conditional default value. Both the read-only section and the default section use PL/SQL blocks to determine there use. When the read-only condition is true the radio group is grayed out but neither the Yes or No button is checked. It then returns a null value when the page is submitted.

See
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=24317:105
Default is Yes (http://tinypic.com/i39qh4.jpg)
Readonly is true (http://tinypic.com/i39s7p.jpg)
Rendering works fine.
But when the page is submitted, the Yes value doesnt get into session state.
This is because the read-only is implemented by setting disabled=disabled on the radio element.
As per relevant standards (http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/forms/input.html), disabled form elements are not submitted during a POST operation.
But if it is a readonly item with a default value, you already know the value (you put it there), so why do you need it in session state, just use the default value (hardcoded)
Thanks.

Make single option as read only in Radio group

Just thinking aloud (can't test it right now myself): I'm not sure whether you can disable (or set read only) a radio button. However, if you don't need one of these options, perhaps you should modify List of Values query which returns these options. Furthermore, it means that list shouldn't be static but dynamic (SELECT statement).
So how do we restrict SELECT's result set? By using a WHERE clause.
Now, you know the conditions that have to be met in order to (or not to) display certain options. Suppose that there's a page item (named P1_CONDITION) which - if set to 4 (as "option*4*) - won't allow option4 to be displayed.
List of values' query might look like
{code}select option_name, option_id
from options
where option_id <> nvl(:P1_CONDITION, -1) --> -1 is a non-existent option
{code}

Read-only radio button or checkboxes save as null

Hi,
I have a form with some fields that are editable by 1 group of users and read-only for another group in certain conditions.
Before the header there is a fetch process to retrieve values from tables. So most fields (read-only & editable) are populated including checkboxes & radio buttons.
All users can edit at least 1 field on the form.
When the save button is pressed a PL/SQL process runs to save the data.
The save works if the field is editable.
If the field is read-only and text it also works.
But if the field is a radio button or checkbox a null is saved in the table.
Any suggestions on how to get the PL/SQL to pick up the read-only radio buttons and checkbox values?

Hi,
I had the same problem in my application and I found another solution instead of using two items. I'm using a computation on page processing that makes a select on my table to get the value for the checkbox. I'm doing this with the same condition as my read-only condition on my checkbox item so I can get the database value when it is lose in the submit process.
Also, I found a difference in the html code between the read-only state of the item and the standard state.
Original state : name="p_v07" (7 because it's the seventh item on my page)
Read-only state : name="checkbox"
I tried to modify this using firebug in execution of the page but without success, the problem is still there.

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?
Thanks!

User Interface Localizer - Radio group bug

When I click "Next" or "Next Untranslated" on the last item in a radio group, the User Interface Localizer crashes. I have CVI 9.1.1.
I know the workaround but thought it worth reporting.

Restricting certain users groups to read only for certain folders

Hi
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum, but hey, hopefully someone might now the answer or direct me to the correct one.
I'm writing a VB program to amend ACLs for specific user groups.
Effectively, I make all prior year folders read only, whereas the default for the group is Modify, Delete etc. This means they can continue to work in the "new year folders", but historic years is List/read only.
I've got to the point the program does everything I want, i.e. stops folder creation7deletion, file & folder name changes, copying for the historic years, but does not prevent deletion of files in the folder. Effectively I set Deny access on the
historic folders.
Testing using the Windows GUI would appear to resolve the problem is I change the Deny Special Permission (for the group) from "This folder only" to "This folder & files".
Question then is how to I set this in VB, the default appearing to be "This folder only"
Here's extract of my code
Thanks
IfvarDirectoryName.IndexOf("\"&
Date.Now.Year) = -1
Then
            FileAcl3.AddAccessRule(
NewFileSystemAccessRule(GroupAdmin(0),
FileSystemRights.Modify,
AccessControlType.Deny))
            FileAcl3.AddAccessRule(
NewFileSystemAccessRule(GroupAdmin(0),
FileSystemRights.DeleteSubdirectoriesAndFiles,
AccessControlType.Deny))
            FileAcl3.RemoveAccessRule(
NewFileSystemAccessRule(GroupAdmin(0),
FileSystemRights.ReadAndExecute,
AccessControlType.Deny))
            FileAcl3.RemoveAccessRule(
NewFileSystemAccessRule(GroupAdmin(0),
FileSystemRights.ListDirectory,
AccessControlType.Deny))
Dim FileInfo3 As IO.FileInfo = New IO.FileInfo(varDirectoryName)
Dim FileAcl3 As New FileSecurity
If varDirectoryName.IndexOf("\" & Date.Now.Year) = -1 Then
FileAcl3.AddAccessRule(New FileSystemAccessRule(GroupAdmin(0), FileSystemRights.Modify, AccessControlType.Deny))
FileAcl3.AddAccessRule(New FileSystemAccessRule(GroupAdmin(0), FileSystemRights.DeleteSubdirectoriesAndFiles, AccessControlType.Deny))
FileAcl3.RemoveAccessRule(New FileSystemAccessRule(GroupAdmin(0), FileSystemRights.ReadAndExecute, AccessControlType.Deny))
FileAcl3.RemoveAccessRule(New FileSystemAccessRule(GroupAdmin(0), FileSystemRights.ListDirectory, AccessControlType.Deny))
FileInfo3.SetAccessControl(FileAcl3)
End If

Your right, when I added the flags I got the following error at execution
{"No flags can be set. Parameter name: inheritanceFlags"}
I've developed a work around, which gives me exactly - subject to further testing - what I want. I simply mark each file in the relevant folders with a Deny Delete option.
I will however explore the DirectorySecurity class option, but initial review of the www seems a little shy on VB examples.
Thanks
Perry
You should be able to use FileSecurity and DirectorySecurity the same way (they have identical methods). Since this is a scripting forum, I'll provide a PowerShell example (which is fairly close to C# and VB; they all use the exact same classes):
$varDirectoryName = "c:\folder"
$GroupAdmin = "Admin Group"
$FileInfo3 = New-Object System.IO.DirectoryInfo $varDirectoryName
$FileAcl3 = $FileInfo3.GetAccessControl()
$FileAcl3.AddAccessRule((New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemAccessRule (
$GroupAdmin,
[System.Security.AccessControl.FileSystemRights]::Modify,
([System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags]::ContainerInherit -bor [System.Security.AccessControl.InheritanceFlags]::ObjectInherit),
[System.Security.AccessControl.PropagationFlags]::None,
[System.Security.AccessControl.AccessControlType]::Allow
$FileInfo3.SetAccessControl($FileAcl3)
I could have taken a lot of shortcuts when using the enumerations, but I think keeping it verbose helps show how similar the code can be.
Does that make sense?

Change field from read only and override calculation based on radio button

Hi,
I have a form in which one of the fields has a simple sum calculation and is set to read only so the user can't change it as it sets a print amount as well.
But if one of the radio buttons is ticked there is a chance that the print amount needs changing but it can be different based on a few other options so I have managed to set the field so the user can edit it depending on an option but the calculation that sets the value overrides what the user enters. I would like to know if it is possible to change this?
I use
this.getField("Quantity_Boxes").readonly = false;
So the user can edit the field when they select the radio button 'yes' under Mesh_b
and
this.getField("Quantity_Boxes").readonly = true;
So the field goes back to read only when the user selects the 'no' under Mesh_b
and in the Quantity_Boxes field I use:
Quantity_Curtains / csn
Just as a simplified division sum with the decimal places set to 0 so a whole number appears.
csn is just a hidden field that has an amount set depending on the size of curtain.
Thanks,
Bruce

I have found a solution but caused another problem (well more of an irritation than a problem)
I have made it so the can field throws a dialogue box asking how many of the item fit into a box, the only problem is that the dialogue box will appear more then once.
For example I have made a new size know as bespoke and when I select that size and hit return the dialogue box pops up which is fine but when the amount of the product is changed it throws the dialogue box again. I guess this is because the calculation has to be run again but is there anyway of stopping this?
Here is the code I use in the can field which defines how many curtains are in the box and is used to calculate how many labels need printing out.
if(this.getField("SizeDrop").value=='LG'){
event.value = "5"
} else if (this.getField("SizeDrop").value=='ST'){
event.value = "8"
} else if (this.getField("SizeDrop").value=='ME'){
event.value = "10"
} else if (this.getField("SizeDrop").value=='SM'){
event.value = "15"
} else if (this.getField("SizeDrop").value=='BE'){
var resp = +app.response("Enter the amount of curtains in a box","","1");
event.value = resp
} else {
event.value = " "
Thanks,
Bruce
EDIT:
I have found that the dialogue box will appear every time something is changed on the form (even while in the editor as well)
