Select list return value displayed in another item

The subject pretty much defines it. I have 3 items on a page select list, displays as text (based on LOV), and a text box. My idea is to display a control number in the select list. When the user selects the number that they want I would like the return value to fill in the displayed as text item. Then user can then use the text box to update that information.
My question is how do I get the return value to display on the users selection?
Thanks,
Derek

Try to compute that item.

Select List multiple values

All,
I am in urgent need of this requirement referencing/copying all selected multiple values in select List and putting them into text item/text-area separated by ","/comma delimiter.....any help
appreciated.
example:
select list
=======
aaaa
bbbb (selected)
cccc
dddd(selected)
ffffff
copied is:
bbbb, dddd

No worries, I've found a way.
You need to create a pl-sql function that generates the necessary HTML code that will render the select list using the selected="selected" attribute when the option value is selected.
This is an example of the expected HTML code for a multiple selection list:
<select name="favoritefood" id="favoritefood" multiple=true; size=4;>
<option value=1>Cheese</option>
<option value=2 selected="selected">Egg</option>
<option value=3>Cabbage</option>
<option value=4 selected="selected">Ham</option>
</select>
I created this function in order to find the matches within the saved code and the option value. And then include the selected="selected" string in the returned HTML code.
Finally, I'm using this function in the SQL query that generates a tabular report and I changed the column Display Attribute to "Standard Report Column". Then the report instead of showing the HTML code, will render it to a HTML item.

Select list -null value?

When you create a select list on a column, and run the page for the first time, the drop down doesn't show any value. I realized that once you click on the drop down to see what the values are, at the bottom of the list there is a blank value. But you can only see this the first time you load the page. Once you click on any other value, that blank value is gone. How does this work? How can I select the blank value even after you had selected other values previously?
Thanks,

Multiple-Selection List Box Values in Multiple Columns

I am using InfoPath 2010 with SharePoint 2013. I have a form with a multiple-selection list box which has A LOT of choices. Instead of displaying all the choices in one column, is it possible to display the values of my list box in several
columns?

Hi Andrea,
I agree with Brij, one multiple-selection list box is associated with one list field, we cannot use the one multiple selection list box value for other multiple selection list boxes, we need to create multiple choices for each multiple-selection list box
control in InfoPath form.
Thanks

Af:inputListOfValues: updating all attributes from 'List return values'

Hi all,
In my ViewObject, I have one LOV enabled Transient attribute (in order to display content meaningfull for the end user)
In the List return values, I have one extra return value, which updates the real foreign key attribute
When user launches LOV popup and chooses one of the vaules, both of my attributes from the List return values are updates properly
However, when the user entered value directly (so, does not launch LOV popup), then the real foreign key attribute has not been set
What to do in order to set foreign key attribute in both cases ?
Maybe with one valueChangeListener and autoSubmit enabled ?
Any idea ?
P.S. Off topic : Seems thas password finder for my OTN account does not work, is there any way to "unite" my posts from my old account with this new one ?
Edited by: user11208293 on May 28, 2009 8:49 AM

Ok. It seems that no solution for this problem, so end user cannot directly enter the value in the af:inputListOfValues (into transient View attrbibute), since there no way to update the real foreign key value. The only option is to enable LOV not for transient, meaningfull attribute, but for f.k. attribute (which does not mean nothing for end user)
What you doing in this situation ?
Should I discard af:inputListOfValues ?
P.S. just to note : LOV Autocompletion, as described in the Steve Muench atricle :
http://www.oracle.com/technology/oramag/oracle/09-jan/o19frame.html
works only if user presses Tab button (after entering value in the LOV filed).
It does not work if user directly enter into LOV field, and then press some command button by the mouse

ADF web select one choice list return value

hi
how can i make a choice list that displays a value but return another value
and then use it as a parameter in a method for a button
my problem is how to return another value to the button
thanks

Hi,
After creating the selectOneChoice based on the steps you followed, you will need to follow up with the steps below.
1) Open up your Page Definition file. In the Structure panel, right click on bindings --> Insert inside bindings --> Generic bindings --> attributeValues.
2) Under Data Source, select your iterator value used to bind the selectOneChoice component. The attribute should be your value ID (example: productId) that you want to be returned by selecting the selectOneChoice component.
In the backing bean, you get the actual value of the selected item in the list in step #2 by resolving the expression (example) #{bindings.productId.inputValue}.

Apex_item select list to be displayed with multiple default values

I am using APEX 4.2.
For one of our requirements , we are displaying a report which uses "apex_item.select_list_from_query" multiselect field.
The above function accepts a parameter, 'p_value' using which we can specify the default value to be highlighted.
Is there any way to highlight multiple values on the select list by default, when the page is loaded, based on a sql output.
Sample Scenario:
Say colour is a multiselect field. Full list of values available : R, B, G, Y, O
On day1, for record1 i am choosing R and B. which I am saving in the backend when the page is submitted.
On day2 : I login again to see the report. When the report is loaded, I should see the values 'R' and 'B' highlighted or in a different font format , differentiated from the rest.
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Regards,
Raasi

May be populate the hidden item with default value as colon delimited string and on page load use some JavaScript to read that string and set/highlight the select list.
It would be easy if you can replicate the issue on apex.oracle.com

Dynamic Select List Allowed Values

Howdy Folks,
I am trying to allow end users to select their username. The usernames are generated from a rule library, and displayed in a select form element. I am doing this by having the allowedValues call the rule that generates the possible names directly. The rule returns a list of valid names. The problem I am currently having, is that if the page reloads or refreshes, then the allowedValues calls the rule again. Some of the username choices involve random numbers, so it is possible (and very likely), that separate calls to the rule will generate different potential values. So what is now happening, is that when a user selects the value, the page reloads, and the end user sees an error that looks like this:
( ) - Warning: Selected value for field 'Select a Valid User Name' does not match any of the allowed values.
The reason I am reloading the page, is that I am also trying to show the user what their email address will look like with the new value. So I have a different form element that is loading is value dynamically, and referencing the select form element. This mostly works, but the warning above is unacceptable.
Is there a way I can load the dynamically created list only once, the first time the form is viewed, and not load it again every time the page refreshes?
Another thing I tried to do (but didn't have luck with, so I sorta gave up on it) was to use the onChange of the select to change the value of email display field. This way the page never reloads and I don't have to deal with that issue. I'm thinking the onChange might actually work, but I would need to execute javascript or something, and not just use an express <set/> command to set the value of the field name that displays the email text.
Does anyone have advice on how to make the values only load once? Or how to change the value on the onChange event?
Thanks!
Jim

Mike,
Thanks for the feedback. I actually did try that eventually. I created a variable in the form, and initialized that variable to the list of possible values. Then I referenced the variable in the 'allowedValues' of the select form item. At that point in time I still had the select box set as an action, so it would reload the page, hoping to reload the value in the email display field. This still did not work. Each time the action fired off, the variable was re-initializing itself. I eventually tried to put in a check, so it would not re-initialize itself if it had already been initialized. That caused a syslog error.
I ended up solving the problem using javascript. I changed the field that reported the potential email address to an html element. Then for the html attribute I made a div with an ID. I then set a line of javascript into the onChange attribute of the select form element. This worked when ever the select form value changed. I then added the same line of javascript to the onLoad attribute of the jsp pages body element. This worked for loading the page.
This solved the problem of the page reloading and the select getting new values. That still happens if you actually reload the page, but all the form elements work without the reload now.
Thanks!

Report with select list and link to call another report

Hi,
I am trying to do 2 reports (REPORT1 and REPORT2).
The first is a summary report (REPORT1).
This report will display sales figures for the year. Now, I need to have a select list in the result set that will have 2 options, depending on which option is chosen, I want to call REPORT2 with the select list as a parameter. How can I do this ?
Let me try to explain what I did.
I created REPORT1 on Page 100
SELECT YEAR, sum(YTD_SALES), APEX_ITEM.SELECT_LIST(1,'DEPARTMENT','Department;DEPARTMENT,Division;DIVISION') Drilldown FROM SALES_ANALYSIS WHERE YEAR > 2000
GROUP BY YEAR ORDER BY YEAR
I created 2 hidden items namely P100_YEAR and P100_DRILLDOWN
I also made the column YEAR as a link and specified both P100_YEAR and P100_DRILLDOWN as parameters to be passed.
Next, I created REPORT2
SELECT YEAR, DECODE(:P100_DRILLDOWN, 'Department', department, 'Division', Division) dept_div, sum(YTD_SALES) ytd_sales
FROM SALES_ANALYSIS
WHERE YEAR = :P100_YEAR
When I run Report 1, it's fine, when I choose either Department or Division from the Select List and click on the link to call Report 2, report 2 is displayed, but the value being passed for P100_DRILLDOWN is not correct and as a result, I am unable to get correct results for Report 2
Am I missing something ? Are there any alternate ways to do what I'm doing ?
Thanks,
Ashok

Hi Ashok,
The link definition will not know the value selected in the list as it is constructed only when the page is being rendered. You would need to create some javascript to handle this. I've done that here: [http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=267:182]
The link on the EMPNO column has been defined in the HTML Expression setting for the column instead of the Link section. The HTML Expression that I have used is:
<a href="#" onclick="javascript:doDrilldown('#EMPNO#',this);">#EMPNO#</a>And, in the page's HTML Header setting, I have added in:
<script type="text/javascript">
function doDrilldown(empno,group)
var g;
var p = group.parentNode;
while (p.tagName != "TR")
p = p.parentNode;
var x = p.getElementsByTagName("SELECT");
if (x.length > 0)
g = x[0].value;
var url = "f?p=&APP_ID.:183:&SESSION.::::P183_EMPNO,P183_GROUP:" + empno + "," + g;
document.location.href = url;
</script>When a link is clicked, the doDrilldown function is called passing in the EMPNO value and the "this" object (which identifies the object triggering the call). The function starts from that object and goes up in the HTML tag tree to the nearest TR tag (the row tag that the link is on) and then finds the first SELECT list item on the row and gets its value. It then constructs a URL using this and the EMPNO value and performs a redirect to the second page (page 183 in this example).

How-To populate SELECT LIST default value from SQL Query

OK, I've done my homework, and did not find my answer in the Forum, so here it is.
I have a Page that displays fields from a SQL Query. The Page also has below that radiogroups, checkboxes, and Select Lists to allow the user to change values in the fields that are displayed at the top of the Region. I am able to pre-populate the radiogroups and checkboxes by performing a SELECT in the 'Source value or expression' of the Source area of the Page Item.
However, I am unable to do the same for the Select List fields. Their default value ends up being the first value in the LOV ('-- None --' for NULL values). Source Used: Only when current value in session state is null. Source Type: SQL Query. Also, when I first go into the Page when running it, and check the Session State values, they are all null, so I don't understand why the field is not populated by the SQL Query statement as the radiogroups and checkboxes are.
Any suggestions??? I've tried all sorts of combinations.

Thank you for the suggestion.
I had considered that, but cannot do so, because we are using Oracle Application Express more for development than for data containment.
We have all our data in an Oracle 10.g DB which is separate from the OAEX server, and the OAEX app will reference that data via VIEWs and DB LINKs. We are doing so primarily as an added data security layer, where the data is housed separate from the app, in case the Web site is ever compromised. The data that can be viewed is restricted to a subset of the actual data that is available.
Since the data is on a separate server, (I assume) we will not be able to set the source type to Database column, because (I asume) that is dependent upon the data being housed by the OAEX server.
That still leaves me with having to populate the field with a SELECT statement from the Oracle DB. This unfortuneately is almost a show-stopper for me because of down-stream processing data requirements. Have not been able to come up with contingencies yet.

Select list and hidden display issue

Hi all,
I am using a dynamic value select list, which when a button is pressed sets the value of a hidden display item. The next page then uses the hidden display item as part of an SQL query.
It strangely sometimes works and sometimes doesn't - it often struggles with the values in the select list which are over 30 characters.
Does anybody have any idea what's going on?
Many thanks,
Tom

Hi
I just re-ran the debug feature and have found an issue which could be the cause of the problem:
Som of the data items in the dynamic select list have and ampersand (&) symbol. If I run the page once the hidden item displays the value properly:
0.22: binding: ":HIDDENREGION"="HIDDENREGION" value="Tech Comms Media Utilities & Hi-tech" if I re-run the page after navigating around the application for a bit is displays this value:
0.22: binding: ":HIDDENREGION"="HIDDENREGION" value="Tech Comms Media Utilities & Hi-tech"Please notice the "& amp;" bit which has been added... Is there any way of getting rid of this? as it is interfering with the query on the next page.
Many thanks,
Tom

Select list with redirect and save the item to insert row

On the Form, I want to select from the item (P105_ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID)
and pop the result on the item (P105_ADMIN_NAME).
P105_ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID define:
Display as "select list with redirect"
Alternate source used "Only when .."
Source Type "Database Column"
Source Value or express "ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID"
P105_ADMIN_NAME define:
Display as "Text Field"
Altrenate source used "Only when .."
Source Type "SQL Query"
Source Value or express "select party
from responsible_party
where logonid
= :P105_ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID"
questions:
1. item P105_ADMIN_DOMAIN_ID DROP DOWN LIST is limited to
some threadhold, it did not list all the value from
the LOV which is follow:
select LOGONID d, LOGONID r
from RESPONSIBLE_PARTY
order by 1
2. I want to insert a row after complete the form.
But my item P105_ADMIN_NAME is defined
Source Type "SQL Query" instead of the 'Database
Column'
How could I overcome these?
Thanks so much for your help.

1) what i meant was for you to test this ridiculously huge LOV outside of htmldb, but it occurred to me last night that you could, in fact, be hitting a limit of ours. after some poking around, i have confirmed that. select list items in htmldb are currently limited to 10,000 rows. this was initially done for performance reasons, but they're now opening up the restriction. if you really need to work with that many rows where the user is allowed to pick from a set of values, consider using a popup item type instead. it'd help your app performance as well (in my test cases, it stank to have to wait for my 10k select list rows to come down to my browser).
2) sorry to not have been more clear about this, but when you set your item's "Source Type" back to "Database Column", you'd have to specify that column in the "Source or value expression" field. also, you can't put a sql query into that "Post Calculation Computation" field. as i said before, "you can take a look at the attribute-level help for that field to see implementation examples."
3) stick with "Always..." for now if you're using our auto-dml process(es)

Select list null value issue - for filtering the tabular form report

hello,
I have a tabular form created on emp table and in the table their are entries for the employees who don't have a location, like it is null for some of the employees.
Now I have created a select list item - for filtering the results based on location.
my select query for select list item is
select distinct location_name d,location_id r from emp order by 1
-- so my select list contains all the distinct location_name including the null on my tabular form.
so based on the selelcted value(in the select list), I am able to filter the results in my tabular form.
but the thing is that when i try to select an null value from my select list - i am not able to filter my report - like its displaying all the records, its not filtering.
can anyone help me out with this.
thanks.

Hi
Try below select for LOV
select distinct nvl(location_name,'No Location') d,nvl(location_name,'No Location') r from emp order by 1 And then change tabular from select where clause also use nvl(location_name,'No Location') like
SELECT *
FROM emp
WHERE nvl(location_name,'No Location') = :Px_YOUR_ITEMBr, Jari

Select list that is dependent on another select list with ajax

I have a select list that contains it (ajax)
onchange = "get_select_list_ajax (this, 'P2012_REQUERENTE', 'COMBO_REQUERENTE_ITEM', 'COMBO_REQUERENTE_AJAX');" class = "largura200"
So I have a select list below, which is conditional, according to the value returned from the select list P2012_Cliente.
DECLARE
v_tipo VARCHAR2 (50);
BEGIN
SELECT DISTINCT (id_cliente_tipo) INTO v_tipo FROM vw_cliente
WHERE customer_id =: P2012_CLIENTE;
IF (v_tipo = pkg_cfg.c_tp_cliente_interno) THEN
RETURN true;
ELSE
RETURN false;
END IF;
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
NULL;
END;
But is not working .. Why? He is not detecting the return of the select list that is Ajax?

How can I send the return of a select list (ajax) on a text item?
html_form_attributes of sel. list -> onchange = "get_select_list_ajax (this, 'P2012_REQUERENTE', 'COMBO_REQUERENTE_ITEM', 'COMBO_REQUERENTE_AJAX');" class = "largura200"

I have created a record group dynamically and i am getting the query from the query column of the xx_query table into the record group(say test_rg)
I have created a LOV test_lov and thr set_lov_property i have populated the test_rg query into the test_LOV
is it possible for me to set the return item of the LOV dynamically so that i can get the LOV on the item which i want to ?
thanks

Hi All
thanks for your responses
I have Created a control item and assigned the return value of the LOV to the control item
and i have assigned the LOV to the text item that i want
Currently when i navigate to the text item the LOV is visible
but when i select a value from the LOV the value is not getting populated into the text item
I have assigned the value of the control item to the text item
but i am not sure in which trigger to write the code so as when i select the value from the LOV the value should be shown on the form populating in the text item
Thanks
