Referencing report columns in the BLOB download link format mask

Hi there,
In a basic report (Apex 4) I have a link to download a BLOB stored in the table. However to save space, instead of using 2 columns, one for the file name and one for the download link, I want to use only one column where the file name is the download link itself.
To do this, I tried using this download link format mask (ATTACH_FILENAME is the report column that contains the file name):
DOWNLOAD:ATTACHMENTS:ATTACH_BLOB:ATTACHMENT_ID::ATTACH_MIME_TYPE:ATTACH_FILENAME:::attachment:#ATTACH_FILENAME#
However it shows #ATTACH_FILENAME# in all rows instead of the actual file name!
I know that using substitution strings (&) works, so is there a way to also reference report columns in this format mask?
Thanks
Luis

Luis, did you finally resolve this? I have the same question.

  • Display image for BLOB  Download link in Interactive Report

    I have a table containing BLOB data and am displaying the table in an interactive report. I would like to replace the "Download" text link with an icon that represents the MIME type of the BLOB, but can't seem to find a way to make the substitution. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks.
    -Jeff

    Hey Ben,
    Thanks for the suggestion. I understand what you are saying, the problem is that when you have an interactive report that includes a BLOB and you use the built-in method for displaying a download link, it only gives you the option of using a text link. The method is outlined in the online help under:
    Home > Advanced Programming Techniques> About BLOB Support in Forms and Reports > About BLOB Support in Reports
    This is done by using the following syntax in the Number/Date Format of the column attribute of the BLOB:
    DOWNLOAD:CC_DOCUMENTS:CONTENTS:ID::MIME_TYPE:FILENAME:UPDATED_ON::attachment:View
    Where the last parameter is the link text. The only problem is that there is no option for substituting an image rather than the link text. That's what I'm trying to work around. Sorry if you new all of this already, but I wanted to explain what I've already done. Thanks for any help you can offer.

  • Can "Standard Report Column" be the Default Instead of "Display as Text"

    Almost every report region I write has some html in at least one column, whether it's a break or an apex_item or something else. Hence, when the region renders with the default settings, the column shows the html code - I have to change the column display type from "Display as Text" to "Standard Report Column".
    Is there some setting to make "Standard Report Column" the default? (Isn't that kind of what the word Standard implies?)
    Thanks,
    Gregory

    Is there some setting to make "Standard Report Column" the default? (Isn't that kind of what the word Standard implies?)In earlier versions of APEX "Standard Report Column" was the default. The default was changed in APEX 4.0 to "Display as Text" (which escapes HTML-sensitive characters) as a security measure to limit vulnerability to XSS attack. This is necessary for the protection of users and (so-called) developers who are not security conscious/HTML savvy.
    There's no option to change this, and I doubt that one will be provided in the future. The indications are that the Oracle APEX team are committed to blocking as many security holes as possible by default, leaving it to the developer to consciously make any modifications that increase the surface exposed to attack.

  • I attempted to buy photoshop elements 13 this morning, but the only download links I see are for PC versions - how do I get the Mac option, or is there one?

    As above- when I received the download link, there were only Windows versions available.

    You can contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
    1. Adobe Photoshop Elements
    2. Adobe ID, and signing-in
    3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”

  • Why won't the re download link on my order history page for my product PSE10 not work?

    Hi Folks,
    I purchased PSE 10 Jan 30, 2012.
    I lost some apps due to some bad blocks and now I wish to re download my product, PhotoShop Elements 10. The download link on "MY ORDERS" page <https://www.adobe.com/account/account-orders.html> is unresponsive. I click and double click and nothing happens.
    I had a dmg in my download folder and when I double clicked I got this message:
    Can anyone help plese. Time is of the essence.
    Thanks,
    Gareth

    Hi Manish-Sharma,
    Thank you for your reply. It is very much appreciated.
    I tried answering in the forum on the message page, but as previously, the forum entry level for some reason rejected my screen name, which is "stehkoyeh", saying it was already taken and yes, I am properly logged in. I guess it's not my night.
    Regarding attaching the jpeg image, I looked for a reply field, but I guess not having my screen name accepted prevented me accessing it. I thought therefore it could go on the email, but I was unaware it couldn't be done.
    I can 'see' now my email reply posted, but I honestly didn't realize that only text gets through, not images.
    I am really grateful for now being able to download PSE10, which is downloaded and safely installed and working fine. I thank you personally for making this possible.
    Anyway, thanks also for staying with me, it being so late on a Sunday here on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.
    Your Help service, although difficult for me personally, has been wonderful, because it did what it was supposed to, in spite of my errors!
    Regards,

  • Javascript - Referencing report column value

    Hi,
    In my application I have a report "Test" with some columns. In column "PFT_PCODE" the possible values are either 1 or 2.
    What I want is to display the report table cell in red, if the value in "PFT_PCODE" is 1, or the table cell in orange, if the value in "PFT_PCODE" is 2, respectively.
    I tried to make something in Javascript, based on a Vikas' example. I put in the
    Region Header:
    <style type="text/css">
    .rot {
    background-color: red;
    .orange {
    background-color: orange;
    </style>
    Region Footer:
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var spans=document.getElementsByTagName('span');
    for (var j=0;j<spans.length;j++) {
    if (spans[j].className=='farbe') {
    var td=html_CascadeUpTill(spans[j],'TD');
    if (document.getElementsById('#PFT_PCODE#').value == 1) {
    td.className = 'rot';
    else {
    td.className = 'orange';
    </script>
    The column "PFT_PCODE" is marked as CSS class "farbe".
    Unfortunately it's not working, I'm not sure if I reference the report column value right. Since I'm a beginner in Javascript I would be glad for help.
    I put my (reduced) application on apex.oracle.com for testing.

    Hi Roger,
    In your report, if you do a View Source, do your report headers have id's on them - that is, the TH tags that contain the headings?
    If so, you could use:
    &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
    function hilite(f1)
    var h = document.getElementById(f1);
    var t = h.parentNode;
    while (t.tagName != 'TABLE')
      t = t.parentNode;
    var rows = t.rows;
    var k;
    var j;
    var c;
    var headers = t.getElementsByTagName("TH");
    for (k = 0; k &lt; headers.length; k++)
      if (headers[k].id == f1)
        c = k;
    for (k = 1; k &lt; rows.length; k++)
      j = rows[k].getElementsByTagName("TD")[c];
      if (j.innerHTML == '2')
        j.style.backgroundColor = 'purple';
        j.style.color = 'yellow';
      if (j.innerHTML == '1')
        j.style.backgroundColor = 'red';
        j.style.color = 'white';
    &lt;/script&gt;Put that in the page's HTML Headers setting.
    In the report region's Region Footer, add in:
    &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
    hilite('PFT_PCODE');
    &lt;/script&gt;This will find the heading's TH cell, work out where it is in the row, then loop through all remaining rows and check the TD cell in the same column, highlighting the cell using background and font colours.

  • QuIcktime X does not support the .qtl media link format?

    In the past I have been able to view NASA TV with Quicktime. I just go to the site and click the Quicktime link... I found out last night when I upgraded to Snow Leopard's QT X that the .QTL format used to connect to streaming Quicktime media no longer works...
    What is the deal with that? QTL is a Quicktime format correct? It this just an outdated format?
    Edit: I had to use RealPlayer instead. Yikes!
    Message was edited by: JupiterGPL

    I can reproduce this problem and installing Quicktime 7 from the optional installs in the DVD does not address the problem. QTL files can be used for streaming - the user downloads the qtl file which contains a link to an rtsp stream which then opens in the player.
    http://developer.apple.com/legacy/mac/library/documentation/QuickTime/QT4WebPage /samplechap/special-11.html
    This is described here and has worked forever. We use this to provide an open stream in Quicktime option in our software product - which does not work in snow leopard.

  • How do I re-download CS 3.3 Design Standard when the correct download link associated w/ the order # in my Adobe account indicates that I have no downloads?

    I need to re-download Adobe CS 3.3 Design Standard on a PC running Windows 7.  The program files were somehow corrupted after we had someone migrate select files from our PC to a new Mac computer (I want to continue to use CS 3.3 on our PC vs. buying new software for the Mac). I was unable to deactivate the program; I tried running the program (links not found), repairing & reinstalling the program (script error msg) and removing the program with Control Panel (removal of components failed), but was unsuccessful in all attempts.  I logged into my Adobe account, found my order with correct serial numbers, but upon hitting the 'Download' button, all I received was a notification that I had no available downloads (after repeated tries, using different browsers).  I had a similar problem about a 4-6 weeks ago, but did successfully re-download CS 3.3 from my account at that time.  Any ideas on how I get it back onto my computer now?

  • Where is the trial download link for CS5.5 Premiere?

    A coworker bought Premiere CS6 so he sold me his CS5.5 version. However, he is out of state, so I'm wondering if I can download the trial version and enter the license number, so he doesn't have to ship it to me. Where can I download Premiere 5.5 or old version in general?

    SeattleBrad I would recommend going through the Transfer of Adobe Product License process first to help ensure that neither you or your co-worker end up not getting what you are paying for.  If the purchased the upgrade they would no longer be able to use it if they have sold their previous version to you.  Also by completeing the process it helps ensure that your investment is secure as well.
    As for downloading previous versions you can find links to download Creative Suite 5.5 here http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs5-5-is-out.html.  I would recommend following the directions exactly or you will end up receiving an Access Denied error message.

  • What happened to the "Free Downloads" link at iTunes Store?

    Since the new iTunes store switched, the "This weeks free downloads" that link that displayed all of the free tv shows available for download has disappeared? I remember it has episodes of Passions, Three Moons..., 30 Days, and others. Is there a link that I'm just missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    No (so sad), at the bottom of my front page is "Exclusively on iTunes" display with a few titles.
    ... immediately down below that is a little "My Store" thingy. is it currently showing "United States"?
    if it's showing a different country, click on it and select "United States". does the "FREE ON iTunes" show up for you now?
    (i just checked with my iTunes Store ... if i switched to the UK store, i'd see what you were seeing, but i'd get the Free section back if i switched back to the US Store.)

  • What is the direct download link for iTunes 11.4 32 Bit for Windows?

    Everytime I click to download itunes from the main page (www.apple.com/itunes/download) , the download doesn't start, just brings me to the thank you downloading page after clicking DOWNLOAD ITUNES NOW button. But if i get the direct link, i could enter it into my address bar, the download would initiate. Does anyone know how to fix this on either my computer, or simply know the address where it is located so I could get iTunes 11.4 for my ipad mini with IOS 8.0.2 on it?

    Sorry it doesn't download in 15 min.  I'm on a slow connection (5Mbit).
    If I have a direct link I can get it with a download manager in about 4 hours for a 5GB download.
    iTunes and app store takes 2 days because the bandwidth is throttled to 10% of the available bandwidth by osx.  App store and iTunes will time out and it is impossible to recover/resume downloads with apple software - apple forces you to download from the beginning after it times out.
    Apple software for OSX and IOS are terrible for downloading large files on a slow network connection.  I don't think its reasonable to have to leave a computer running 24-48 hours to download something that can be downloaded in 4 hours.

    Hello michaelannb,
    try to delete(OR you can rename the profiles.ini to profiles.iniOLD) the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profiles.ini_file profiles.ini] file to force firefox to create a new profile, the profiles.ini file exist in firefox '''profile folder ''path'''''
    for your xp type in command line (start > Run) :
    %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox
    then find the profile.ini file (it is a plain-text file) and delete it.
    then when you start firefox again, a new default profile folder will be created and only a single profile, the new "default", will be listed in the Profile Manager.
    This new "default" profile doesn't contain any of the profile data or settings stored in your old "default" profile folder, which still exists but is no longer accessible from the Profile Manager.
    Your existing Firefox user profile data, which includes bookmarks, passwords, cookies, preference settings and added extensions, will no longer appear in the new profile but you can[http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox transfer the data from the old profile folder to the new default profile folder].
