Retreive named anchor from On Load page process

I am trying to utilize named anchors on a page and need to access the named anchor from a PL/SQL page process of type: On Load - Before Header.
I first tried owa_util.get_cgi_env ('QUERY_STRING') which has been helpful in retrieving GET params, but for a URL like:
http://host:port/pls/apex/f?p=121:75:3747918990426914:::75:P75_ID:25769#asdf
it returns:
http://host:port/pls/apex/f?p=121:75:3747918990426914:::75:P75_ID:25769
What I actually need is everything else ... in this case: #asdf (or just asdf).
I don't see anything relevant here either:
owa_util.print_cgi_env();
I'm punting now, assuming that there is no way to retrieve these hash url parameters. If somebody has any insight into this, I would greatly appreciate your direction!
Thanks,
John

Could you use location.href in javascript to stuff the URL value into a page ITEM and then substr/instr it out?
Just a thought.

Using Named Anchors with Dynamic PHP Pages

I have a web app that uses PHP to generate pages out of a
MySWL database. The links to the page look something like:
www.domain.com/display.php?id=300.
On this page I'd like to include a link to an anchor towards
the bottom with a feedback form. I have a named anchor called
"add_rating". The link I'm using is
"www.domain.com/display.php?id=300#add_rating".
This link doesn't work in any browser/OS combination I've
tried and so it must be my code. Any help?

"
http://www.domain.com/display.php#add_rating?id=300''

Calling Javascript function from PL/SQL Page Process

Hi All,
So far I have seen many threads that answered the question: Calling a PL/SQL from a Javascript function. I would like to know if it's posiible to do the reverse process as follows:
DECLARE
   v_name APPLICANTS.NAME%Type;
   v_surname APPLICANTS.SURNAME%Type;
   v_idNumber APPLICANTS.ID_NUMBER%Type;
BEGIN
   select name, surname
   into v_name, v_surname
   from APPLICANTS
   where id_number = :P2_ID_NUMBER;
   //Javascript function call Syntax is what i'd like find out
   onchange="javascript:show_Name(v_name,v_surname);";
EXCEPTION
   WHEN OTHERS
   THEN
   onchange="javascript:show_Exception(v_name,v_surname);";
END;& Javascript function to shiow applicant's details is:
function show_Name(item1,item2){
   alert('Applicant's Name is: ' + item1 + ' & Surname is: ' + item2);
}THANK YOU!

Hi Dinesh, Thanks for the response!
I've also tried doing the following without success:
DECLARE
   v_name APPLICANTS.NAME%Type;

BEGIN
   select name, surname
   into v_name, v_surname
   from APPLICANTS
   where id_number = :P2_ID_NUMBER;
   htp.p('<script type="text/javascript">');
   htp.p('
            alert('Applicant's Name is: ' + v_name + ' & Surname is: ' + v_surname);

   THEN
   htp.p('<script type="text/javascript">');
   htp.p('
         alert('Exception.');
   htp.p('</script>');;

Target Named Anchor in a Spry Collapsible Panel from a different page

Let me start by saying I have combed this forum (and others) looking for a resolution to this. I am familiar with David Powers solution on Foundationphp.com and am using that code in project to open the collapsible panel from a separate page and it works beautifullly. The problem I have is that I want the browser to move down to a specific named anchor inside that opened collapsible panel when clicked from a different page.
Snippets of my current code here.
Below is the code that I have on an image that when clicked goes to the correct page and opens Panel1. Works Perfectly!
<a href="bamboo-species.php?col1=open#CollapsiblePanel1"><img src="images/Content/Photos/HomeScroll/blackTmbor.jpg" width="227" height="175" /></a>
Below is the link to the .js file and the script in the head of the target page
<script type="text/javascript" src="SpryAssets/SpryURLUtils.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// Grabs the values of the URL parameters for the current URL.
var params = Spry.Utils.getLocationParamsAsObject();
</script>
Below is the code that I have on the target page for Panel1
<script type="text/javascript">
var CollapsiblePanel1 = new Spry.Widget.CollapsiblePanel("CollapsiblePanel1", {contentIsOpen:params.col1 ? true : false},{duration: 1000});
</script>
If I have a named anchor say <a name="species1" id="species1"></a> down in the page, how do I target that named anchor from my link on the separate page. I have tried adding the #species1 to the end of the link on the link page (see below) but with no luck. I believe those were the instructions on foundationphp.com site.
<a href="bamboo-species.php?col1=open#CollapsiblePanel1#species1"><img src="images/Content/Photos/HomeScroll/blackTmbor.jpg" width="227" height="175" /></a>
I hope (and suspect) that this is an easy fix, I just do not know what it is. Any help or direction where to look is greatly appreciated.

I once had the same issue can created a small function that allows me to "jump" to a element.
function scrollTo( element ){
     var stylize = function( element){ return !+"\v1" ? element.currentStyle : document.defaultView.getComputedStyle( element , null ) },
          getPosition = function( element ){
               // based on the SpryEffect's module:
               var computedStyle, tryComputedStyle,
                    position = { x: 0, y: 0 };
                    if ( element.style.left && /px/i.test(element.style.left) ){
                         position.x = parseInt(element.style.left, 10); // without padding
                    } else {
                         computedStyle = stylize( element );
                         var tryComputedStyle = computedStyle && computedStyle.left && /px/i.test( computedStyle.left );
                         if (tryComputedStyle)
                              position.x = parseInt( computedStyle.left, 10 ); // without padding, includes css
                         if(!tryComputedStyle || position.x == 0) // otherwise we might run into problems on safari and opera (mac only)
                              position.x = element.offsetLeft;   // includes padding
                    if ( element.style.top && /px/i.test(element.style.top) )
                         position.y = parseInt( element.style.top, 10); // without padding
                    else
                         if ( !computedStyle )
                              computedStyle = stylize( element );
                    var tryComputedStyle = computedStyle && computedStyle.top && /px/i.test( computedStyle.top );
                         if ( tryComputedStyle )
                              position.y = parseInt( computedStyle.top, 10 ); // without padding, includes css
                         if( !tryComputedStyle || position.y == 0 ) // otherwise we might run into problems on safari and opera (mac only)
                              position.y = element.offsetTop;   // includes padding
               return position;
          scroll( 0, getPosition( element ).y );
So now we have a scrollTo function that accepts a pure HTML element as argument, all what is left to do is figure out if we have a hash, and if the anchor exits on the page.
( hopes this works, i wrote it without testing, but you get the general idea ):
if( window.location.hash ){
     var hash = window.location.hash.substr(1), // remove the # from the hash
     element;
     // as anchors can also be used with id attributes, check that first,
     element = document.getElementById( hash );
     // maby we used name="" attribute
     if( !element && ( element = document.getElementsByName( hash )) ){
          element = element[0];
     // if we have a match:
     if( element ){
          // give the collapsible panel some time to init and update the DOM;
          setTimeout(function(){ scrollTo( element ) },0);

Jump to a Named Anchor when loading an HTML doc

I have a CollapsiblePanel with a Content Link to a Named
Anchor in info.html and I thought I could use loadURL() to load the
page into the Div "thetext" but it does not work. Can Spry Jump to
a Named Anchor when it loads an HTML doc?
onClick:
Spry.Utils.updateContent('thetext',
'/information2.php#Insurance')
And I also tried:
Spry.Utils.loadURL('thetext', '/information2.php#Insurance')
The Head:
<script src="SpryAssets/SpryCollapsiblePanel.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
<link href="SpryAssets/SpryCollapsiblePanel.css"
rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"
src="Spry_P1_6_10-01/includes/SpryData.js"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"
src="Spry_P1_6_10-01/includes/SpryEffects.js"></script>

Sure - just make the link to the anchor:
<a
href="page.php#anchor"
onclick="popupscript('page.php#anchor');return false;">
Open my popup window</a>
Making the link attribute (href=) the same as the popup
window means that
people who are visiting your site with javascript turned off
will also
get the information from the page. The 'return false' in the
onclick
event means that the href won't fire if javascript is turned
on.

Named Anchor Problem

Hi folks.
The problem I have is that after a few years of running my
band's website (basic HTML using Dreamweaver) we decided to get a
'pro' to build us a new one. Well they did and now it's impossible
for me to do anything with it apart from very basic text updates
etc.
The first problem is that the site is PHP?? and also all the
page layouts are determined by CSS and any page content is a basic
file that loads into the pages, if you see what I mean.
I am ok with basic editing, updating the news adding shop
items etc but I have now hit a brick wall and the 'pro' is now
unavailable!
What I am trying to do is put a link in the main menu on the
left of the front page that jumps to a named anchor on the shop
page to take you directly to the 'Downloads' section at the bottom.
I can get it to either just jump to the shop page (but at the top)
as normal, or to jump to the anchor as I want, but with the shop
page outside the page/frame it sits in.
How do I do this?
Troublesome Site

http://www.midcoast.com.au/~christo2/byf_site/teachers_amanda.html
The links are from the teacher names in the right hand column. The named anchor sits between the masthead image and the navigation menu.

Handeling named anchors

Hi
I'm trying to set up an news page on my site. I have one main frame where I want the news articles to be displayed, "News". Linked to the frame New is a html page where I write the articles month by month.
In another frame "search" I have a list of months. in the htlm page linked to "search" I have made each month a link to a named anchor in the "news" page.
My site is set up with css and I have a container 790x650 px. The frames are inside this container. The background is a color defined in css.
I have two problems:
When I search in the "search" frame the entire site scroll upwards. I want the container to stay fixed against the top of my browser and the scrolling to be contained to the frame "news". I have the container centered with a 60 px top margin. Is there a function that will keep the page from scrolling? Should I set it up another way?
I can't get the months I use as links in my "search" doc to list with a normal spacing. How do I change this?
Grateful for all input,
Erik

Hi Nancy
Thank you for replying.
I'm using iframes. I hope it's not as bad. Please advice if you know of another, better solution.
My site is not up yet but you can see the page I'm referring to at www.evenemang1.se/nyheter_1.html.
Again, Thank you for helping out!

You'll need to post a URL to your page. There's no way we can help you without seeing your CSS and HTML code.
I sure hope you're not really using FRAMES or Framesets. That would be a tragedy because Frames are so awful the W3C saw fit to remove them from HTML 5 web standards.

Links to id's and named anchors within a page in an iframe do not open in firefox

In order to force layout of my liquid website, I use i-frames to display content . It is all on my sight www.rdelutherie.com, and I am not displaying pages from other sights. The links to sections of pages from within the same page do not work in firefox.
I have had this problem before with named anchors, and in moving up to html5 and in making my site accessible for people with dissabilities, I started using <nav> eliments... and changed from named anchors to links to ID's like this:
In an unordered list I have these:
<pre><nowiki> <li><a href="#s1">Subject 1:</a></li>
</nowiki></pre>
They link to sections of the same page like this one:
<pre><nowiki>
<section id=s1>
<h2>Subject 1:</h2>
<p>Blah blah blaaaaah, and bla bla!</p>
</section></nowiki></pre>
Last time I researched this problem (a year or more ago), I was told that it was because of a security risk (something about being able to count views...and other peoples proprietary and copyrighted material), but the vaguely described reasoning made little to no sense to me nor many others, who can not even link to our own stuff. The Mozilla developers were rather abrupt and some were even rude in telling us to live with it, instead of trying to come up with a solution or work around, and closed the post and disallowed further posting.
The problem still persists, and although I am not a programmer, I have a real hard time believing that it is impossible for Firefox to distinguish between links contained within a document and site, from those on different sights, domains and what have you.
As far as I know, no other browsers have this problem, so if it is such a big security risk, what is to stop someone with malicious intentions, from just using M$ IE, to bring their evil plan to fruition?
In keeping with "Making the web a better place": Please address this problem, and find a solution, workaround, or at least explain why it is impossible.
Bob English

Thanks again jscher2000,
I know exactly what you mean, but I have had other page display problems with adjacent columns where one side does not display completely and seems to be conforming to the other ones height... hence the height settings and other tricks to force things to be acceptable.
I am far from understanding code, and most of the solutions, including the one in the link you posted do not have the information a novice like me would need to implement them successfully. Most of them are written for people much more advanced. Without it telling me where exactly to put the code, point to it, what I can (and should) change and remove elsewhere because of it... I am at a loss. I don't know the basics, and have tried hard to understand them, but it is not like electrical circuits, physics and other things that I can understand naturally and with ease.
I will look into it further in a few days, meanwhile I have to attend to my real work that doesn't even pay the bills completely: guitar building and repair, now that comes easy and naturally to me!

Calling A Page Process From Report Link

Hello.
I am using Apex 4.2.1 on Oracle 11gR3 and mod_plsql.
I am trying to run a PLSQL after-submit page process when users click a SQL generated link in a classical type report.
For example, my classical report uses the query:
SELECT
E.*,
'<a id="rid" href="f?p=&APP_ID.:31:&SESSION.:ADDROW:::P31_ENAME,P31_MGR,P31_DEPTNO:'
|| E.ENAME
|| ','
|| TO_CHAR(E.MGR)
|| ','
|| TO_CHAR(E.DEPTNO)
|| '">'
|| 'Add New Row'
|| '</a>' AS ADD_ROW
FROM
EMP E
My page also has an after submit PLSQL process defined as:
declare
v_empno     integer;
begin
select nvl(max(empno), 0) + 1
    into v_empno
    from emp;
insert into emp (empno,
                   ename,
                   mgr,
                   deptno)
           values (v_empno,
                   substr(:P31_ENAME,1,1) || '-' || to_char(v_empno),
                   to_number(:P31_MGR),
                   to_number(:P31_DEPTNO));
end;
This process has the condition "Request = Expression 1", where "Expression 1" = ADDROW.
I thought that if users click the "ADD_ROW" report link, then the report items ENAME, MGR, and DEPTNO would be passed to corresponding page items. In addition, the above PLSQL process would be executed and add a new row to the EMP table. The report then would then display the newly added row.
But when I click the report link, I see that my page items are, in fact, assigned the associated report values. But the page process is never executed.
I have looked at both the Session State page and in Debug mode. The processing simply never executes my page process.
Would anyone know why my page process is not being run? And, how can I get the page process to run when users click the report link? Indeed, what is the point of even having a REQUEST tage embedded in the url if it is not recognized bt other processes on the page?
In my apex.oracle.com workspace, I have created an example page in which all of this has been coded:
Workspace: EEG
Username: [email protected]
Password: galaxy123 (all lowercase)
AppID: 27083 (Elie_Goodies)
Page 31 (Test Url Request Option)
I would much appreciate if someone could help me with this as I am puzzled why this is not working.
Thank you very much.
Elie

Hi Elie,
I think it's fixed. It was very close. It's just a matter of timing.
For a REQUEST to be visible after submit you have to submit the page. Something like apex.submit("ADD_ROW") will do that.
Then, when the page renders the REQUEST is empty again.
Same thing with the link, which is what you implemented, the REQUEST is only present during render of the page. Then it's gone when the page is submitted.
All I had to do is move your Process to run Before Header so that it could "see" the value of the request. I didn't touch (or look) and any of the code.
Either On Load Before Header or On Load Before region processing points would have worked here.
Thanks

Invoking BPEL Process from a JSP Page 500 Internal Server Error

Hi,
I try to invoke a BPEL Process from a JSP Page and receive the following error. I just pasted the example from the Oracle PM Developer's Guide tutorial. Previously I deployed the CreditRatingService BPEL Process.
Can anyone help me, please?

Here is a sequence from my JSP / and the error I get:
String ssn = request.getParameter("ssn");
if(ssn == null)
ssn = "123-12-1234";

Here is the solution:
Properties props = new Properties();
props.setProperty("orabpel.platform", "oc4j_10g");

Named Anchor linking from another document

I made a Named Anchor and linked from some text in another document. Great. Worked just fine. The only thing is it doesn't display the named anchor at the top of the page.
In other words the footer is at the bottom of the page and the named anchor in the middle of the page... not at the top. Like a #top would be.
Anyway to get it to the top of the page? Do I just need more content under it?
Much appreciated!

Thanks for the help. I had no luck trying it out.
If possible, at: artdesignsneed.com/joeldoctor
Under menu choice "Treatment" then choose "TFP".... the first sentence has ..."Borderline PD developed..."
I wanted to link Borderline PD to:
Menu choice: Disorders... choose Personality... go down to "Cluster B" and there's Borderline PD.
The link worked but the named anchor "Borderline PD" is in the middle of the page.
Cheers if you can help.
If not, I'm going in the right direction.
Much appreciated.

How to close one browser window and return to a named anchor on a page in another window

I'm working on a website that has several book images at the bottom of each page. I have set it up so when the user clicks on a book another smaller browser window opens up with a description of the book. At the bottom of book description window, I have a close button which I added the window.close() behavior to. But I'd like to not just have the window close but return the user to the bottom of the original page where I have the books, an area that I have applied a named anchor to. Any ideas on how I can get this done.
I'd appreciate any and all help.

I haven't tried to customize this lightbox extension much. But I'm pretty sure the size of the box is pre-determined by image size. Bigger image, bigger box. And that is coded into one of the Lightbox javascript libraries.
As to placing a link in the caption, sure. Just paste your html link code into the Lightbox Caption Panel like so.

There is much more detailed information about Lightbox and how it works at the huddled together website.

How to go to anchor html link from external html page in JEditorPane

Hi people,
I've been trying to jump to an anchor link from an external html page in JEditorPane, and I cannot get it working, I'm sure it can be done somehow...
The HTML page has a link like:
Hello
and this is loaded into JEditorPane ok.
The HyperlinkListener implementation:
public void hyperlinkUpdate( HyperlinkEvent e )
try {
if ( e.getEventType() == HyperlinkEvent.EventType.ACTIVATED )
editorPane_.setPage( getClass().getResource(
MyDialog.this.getBaseURL().concat( e.getURL().getFile().substring(
e.getURL().getFile().lastIndexOf( "/" ) + 1 ) ) ) );
if ( e.getURL().getRef() != null )
editorPane_.scrollToReference( e.getURL().getRef() );
else return;
} catch ( IOException ioe ) { ioe.printStackTrace(); }
This code loads the new html file ok, but it does not scroll to the anchor. The MyDialog.this.getBaseURL() just returns something like com.name.package, I construct the URL by using this base url and the name of the html file to open.
ANy help, thanks

he! I'm not alone in my desperation. Take a look at my problem:
I've got a JEditorPane (not editable) inside a JFrame. The JEditorPane is loaded with the HTML text and all the links to anchors are working properly when I click on them.
BUT
If I try to go to an anchor from outside this JFrame I can see how the JEditorPane scrolls to the right anchor and suddenly it scrolls back to the place where the caret was located!!!
The "funny thing" is that my code is working in jdk1.3.1 but this is happening in jdk1.4.2. Is it a bug?!?!?!
How could I figure out what position I have to set the caret to for every anchor in order to get the scroll working correctly???
My implementation of hyperlinkUpdate (working properly, here isn't the problem):
   jEditorPane.addHyperlinkListener(new HyperlinkListener() {
      public void hyperlinkUpdate(HyperlinkEvent e) {
        if (e.getEventType() == HyperlinkEvent.EventType.ACTIVATED) {
          MiEditorPane src = (MiEditorPane)e.getSource();
          src.goToAnchor(e.getDescription().substring(1));
    });My object jEditorPane is an instance of this class:
class MiEditorPane extends JEditorPane {
    MiEditorPane() {
      super();
    public void goToAnchor(String anchor) {
      super.scrollToReference(anchor);
}And this is the method I call from outside the JFrame containing the JEditorPane:
public void goToAnchor(String anchor) {
     jEditorPane.goToAnchor(anchor);
}Any help greatly appreciated ...
