i am getting a error saying ' null pointer is missing and it is not a obhect in SAP BW.

Hi Kumar,
when you writting the code scenarios, consider the infoobjects that are about to use for drilldown as one scenario, that works for you for drill down/across.

You can achieve the use case you describe with partial page rendering (PPR), a feature of the ADF Faces framework. Here are a few posts that achieve an interactive behavior using PPR. Off the top of my head I do not know of an exact example, but this should be a good starting point:

Problem with Java Script after upgrade from BW 3.5 to BI7

Dear Colleagues,
We're facing the issue with Java Script after upgrade of BW 3.5 to BI7.
Just after update we checked the basic functionality and it occured that some of web templates that use Java Script don't work. They generate seelction screen, but after selection the screen becomes blank without any error messages.
We're currently stucked since web templates weren't converted to BI7 version so they should work exactly as before the upgrade.
We compared the Java code with other environment that was not upgraded - it's perfectly the same.
The only explanation that comes to my mind is that some Java Script settings on the server level were changed during the upgrade but I have no idea where I can check that.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Andrzej Bobula

Hi Deepu,
Thanks, it was great to read your reply and then few minutes later talk to you live on SDN Day!
Unfortunately, http cache clean-up did not help. But there is another funny thing I found - for exactly the same 3.5 webtemplate html code returned from WebAS 3.5 was different then from 7.0.
Unfortunately, this editor does not allow to paste complete code, even in CODE brackets, but here are main differences:
<b>3.5</b>
if (navigator.appName == "Microsoft Internet Explorer")
<frame src="/sap/bw/BEx?SAP-LANGUAGE=E&PAGENO=1&REQUEST_NO=1&CMD=GET_TEMPLATE"
name="Content">
and
<b>7.0</b>
if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft Internet Explorer")!=-1)
<frame src="/sap/bw/BEx?SAP-LANGUAGE=E&PAGENO=8&REQUEST_NO=0&CMD=GET_TEMPLATE"
name="Content" 0nLoad="javascript:loadTitle()">
(I intentionaly put 0 i/o o in 0nLoad, otherwise Forum's editor does not accept the text.
How about SAP's claim that technical upgrade from 3.x to 7.0 changes nothing?

Vitaliy

Web site with Java Scripts ( on iphone4)

try to open a web site with Java scripts , but it just show empty on the scripts section , anyone can help ? (on iphone 4 with iOS 4.1)

Hi, welcome to Apple Discussions.
Web pages that make use of Javascript should work just fine. Those that have embedded Java applications won't. Java & Javascript are two different animals despite the similarity in the names. Like Flash, Java is not supported on iOS.

Problems with Java Scripting API

Hello Everyone!
Guys, I need help with Java scripting API. A problem is that I cannot understand how can I operate Java Object's fields and methods from the script language. I have chosen embedded javascript to work with. And I can get the fields and methods of in-box java classes (such as ArrayList for example), but I cannot work with methods and fields from my own classes!
Here is an example:
public class ScriptingExample {
    class MyClass {
        int myfield = 5;
        int getInt() {return 7;}
    public void runExample() {
        ScriptEngineManager mgr = new ScriptEngineManager();
        List<ScriptEngineFactory> factories = mgr.getEngineFactories();
        ScriptEngineManager factory = new ScriptEngineManager();
        ScriptEngine engine = factory.getEngineByName("JavaScript");
        MyClass mc = new MyClass();
        try{
            engine.put("mc", mc);
            engine.eval("print(mc.myfield); print(mc.getInt())"); // or engine.eval("print(mc.myfield)");
        } catch (Exception e) {e.printStackTrace();}
} If I run the code with the commented part it prints "undefined" instead of "5".
If I run the code as it is it prints error instead of "7":
undefinedjavax.script.ScriptException: sun.org.mozilla.javascript.internal.EcmaError: TypeError: Cannot find function getInt. (<Unknown source>#1) in <Unknown source> at line number 1

How can I fix it?

Guys,
please let me raise this topic because several new questions emerged.
(1) How can I get all the variables created inside my engine?
There are two kinds of variables: first kind is Java obejcts put inside the engine and second kind is the variables created in my script, such as 'var a = 4;'. How can I list all the variables of that two kinds?
(2) Is there is a way to make 'import static' to the engine? I dont want to write MyClass.MyEnum.MyEnumItem every time. Also, I cannot put the whole enum into the engine with engine.put("MyEnum", MyEnum); I can put only enum items separately: engine.put("MyEnum", MyEnum.EnumItemA);. Thats why I ask about static import.
(3) How can I cast engine variables back to java variables inside my java code?
Here is my example:
package mypackage;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import javax.script.ScriptEngine;
import javax.script.ScriptEngineFactory;
import javax.script.ScriptEngineManager;
public class Main
     public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
          ScriptEngineManager mgr = new ScriptEngineManager();
          List<ScriptEngineFactory> factories = mgr.getEngineFactories();
          ScriptEngineManager factory = new ScriptEngineManager();
          ScriptEngine engine = factory.getEngineByName("JavaScript");
          ArrayList<Double> myList = new ArrayList<Double>();
          myList.add(5.0);
          engine.put("MyList", myList);
          engine.eval("MyVar = MyList.get(0);");
          System.out.println((Double)engine.get("MyVar"));
}The result is:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassCastException: sun.org.mozilla.javascript.internal.NativeJavaObject cannot be cast to java.lang.Double
+     at mypackage.Main.main(Main.java:28)+
Is it possible to retrieve my Double java object from the engine?

Combine JSP with Java Script!

Hi,
I am writing a .jsp file. I am able to put value of jsp into my java script code like..
var i = <%= k %>
but, now my requirement is reverse. I need to put the value of java script variable i into jsp variable k.
Someone told me that it is possible using eval function.
Now, using eval function , I can do the following ...
function xyz() //java script function
eval(<% int k = 5; %>);
but, I need to put the value of java script variable i into k.
I tried eval(<% int k = %> + i);
but it is not working that way.
Can anyone tell me how can I achieve this? Please reply as soon as possible.
Thanks

Just came across this, and even though it's old, I thought Id add something to it since I know a lot got problems combining javascript and jsp; and that most usually don't provide enough info to get someone started.
To be able to "use" Java variables inside a javascript, you need to pass them in the function call:
<%
    String aVariableToPass = "tadaaaaa";
%>
<form onSubmit="myFunction(this,'<%=aVariableToPass %>')" method="post" name="myForm" action="">
   <table>
     <tr>
          <td>
               <input type="submit" value=HitMe" name="submit"/>
          </td>
     </tr>
   </table>
</form>The function:
function myFunction(form, theVariablePassedIn)
         var accessToTheVariable = theVariablePassedIn;
}Now use accessToTheVariable inside the javascript, or theVariablePassedIn directly if you please.
Cincerely. P

Issue with Java script associated with WAD template

Hi Experts,
I made some changes in the Java Script in Tcode SE80. I actually downloaded it, made changes, saved it and then clicked on Upload and replace in SE80. When I opened the Web cockpit, the changes were relecting as anticipated.
But the changes are still showing up even after reverting the changes in java scripts and uploading it again.Please let me know what needs to be done to revert the changes such that it will ot show up in the Web Cockpit.
I think the "Upload and replace option" worked only once in my case. Kindly suggest. Thanks

I would like to know how to do this process. I would like my students to complete the module and then enter there name in the certificate line. Then have them enter their email address so that the certificate can be emailed to them and they can print it off. I would like to have the certificate be a PDF file so they cannot alter the name of the person who took the course.

Help with Java script

So , I edited the ITunes.java as described in the Admin guide.Copied the .class to my cgi folder in the server.I copied the itunesu file from the shell folder of the sample code.I have modified it accordingly.But when I run it in browser(Firefox) as ..../cgi-bin/itunesu it just gives me a blank page.Nothing shows up.I ran the ITunes.java file locally and it generates an HTML output, which I copied and created a new html.After I run this HTML file, it opens my itunes, but again it says page not found and url contains https://www.xxx.edu/cgi-bin/itunesu?destination=xxx.edu where xxx is my institution name.Not sure if I am supposed to display my institution name in forum.

The itunes file from Shell folder has been modified as follows

all the other things in that file have been untouched.
I also generated the debug which looks like this
iTunes U Access Debugging
Received
Destination xxx.edu
Identity "my name" <[email protected]> (mylogin) [1243]
Credentials Administrator@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:xxx.edu
Time 1196706873
Signature 533870b8jshdidk333lfsf6a3143a55c132ec548a4d545bd79322402e8e2596e4
Analysis
The destination string is valid and the corresponding destination item was found.
The identity string is valid and provides the following information:
Display Name my name
Email Address [email protected]
Username mylogin
User Identifier 1243
The credential string is valid and contains the following recognized credential:
1. Administrator@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:xxx.edu
The time string is valid and corresponds to 2007-12-03 18:34:33Z.
The signature string is valid.
Access
Because the received signature and time were valid, the received identity and credentials were accepted by iTunes U.
In addition, the following 2 credentials were automatically added by iTunes U:
1. All@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:xxx.edu
2. Authenticated@urn:mace:itunesu.com:sites:xxx.edu
With these credentials, you have browsing, downloading, uploading, and editing access to the requested destination.
I am pretty new to this, and working on this for the first time.If someone could guide me through this would be pretty helpful.

This is only going to work under IE !
Go to your page template :
Modify the definition, make sur you have this :
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>#TITLE#</title>
#HEAD#
<Script language = javascript>
Browser = navigator.appName
Net = Browser.indexOf("Netscape")
Micro = Browser.indexOf("Microsoft")
Netscape = false
IE = false
if(Net >= 0) {Netscape = true}
if(Micro >= 0) {IE = true}
function XYpos() {
if (IE == true) {
xPos = event.screenX
yPos = event.screenY
alert(xPos + " left " + yPos + " down")
else if (Netscape == true) {alert("Script won't work: " + "\n" + "You're using Netscape")}
</script>
Modify the body definition, make sure you have this :
<body #ONLOAD# onMouseDown = XYpos()>
I didnt try it but it make sens to me... tell me if it works!

URL Branch with java script target fails, but works as button press

I have a java script that displays a "report is loading" message when the page's submit button is pressed via the optional URL redirect attribute of the button.
Unfortunately, I had to remove the optional URL Redirect so that I could perform some computations and processes as a result of the button press.
I tried to put the script link in a branch attached to the button, but it failed with the following error.
ERR-1777: Page 11 provided no page to branch to. Please report this error to your application administrator.
Restart Application
After the branch to the java script, there is an unconditional branch to page 11.
Any one encounter this issue before and, if so, is there a work around?

Hi
Can you not use a URL redirect on the button to call your Javascript function - the Javascript will display the message you want to display, then call
doSubmit('request_name');
...to submit your page, picking up all your processes/computations etc
You then need to define a branch on your page which is conditional on the value of REQUEST - in this case request would be 'request_name'.

Web Reporting: Manipulate Description of query rows with JAVA Script

Hello experts,
On our webtemplates we have several mandatory fields. Which fields are mandatory depend on several criteria (e.g. webtemplate and choosen filter values)
We want to mark all row labels of the queries with '*' if it is a mandatory field. The rows of our queries are implemented as a structure.
Is it possible to include a Java Script in the webtemplate which calls a function module in backend to get the information which row is mandatory? Depending on this information the Java Script should change the row label of the query (add '').*
If this is possible how can we call the JavaScript?
How can we access the query cells (row description) with the Java Script?
Thanks in advance
Johannes

Hi Johannes,
This is possible. Whether or not you should do it is another question. Anyway, let me try to answer your technical question without understanding the functional context of it. Here are parts of the solution:
1) A Custom Web Item to perform the analysis of checking which field is mandatory or not. The web item can output this information in a hidden DIV tag.
2) A JavaScript function to read the DIV tag that was generated in #1 and perform the necessary changes.
Tips:
You can use a library called jQuery to easily navigate the HTML DOM and make your changes at runtime.

Sreaming at the top of my lungs for HELP with Java Script problem!

Hello,
I have this strange problem that no one seems to know why or how to fix it.Whenever I encounter a web site that has java scripting for anything pop ups or redirects to url's anything that says java script when I mouse over the link my browsers do nothing.That is for explorer 6.0 beta netscape 4.7 and netscape version 6.I have tried in another forum some suggestions but nothing changed even though I am told nothing is wrong with the java scripting.I used to be able to click java script's with all of these browsers but no longer.That was a few months ago.Now to try something new I tried to see if a new browser would work.I now have the latest version of Opera.It did work but using Opera on some sites limits what I can do so it doesn't solve my problem.Then I tried the Sun JavaHot browser it also worked but limits what I can do on some site's.I have Windows 98 & updated most of my dll's etc & my java is version 2 1.3.1.My java script is enabled in Explorer & netscape's & the security is at a minimum level.Please help me figure out why these other browsers work but the other's do not.I want to edit a web site of mine but I can't because of this problem.I am very frustrated by this and need as detailed help as I can get.Anything of a suggestion would be very much appreciated.But I am also not an expert on the working's of a computer so bear with me.
Brian

Hi,
Well I am thinking that if anyone could know something about Java script it would be java developers.But anyways I had the previous version of explorer 5.0 & the java didn't work in it either.Now how weird is this,I opened netscape 4.7 today & the java scripts are suddenly working.This has me scratching my head wondering if my computer is possesed by some force beyond my capability to know...????Weird as it seems though the explorer still will not respond to a java script.
