Select value from dropdown list

hi All,
we have a bsp application MVC based, we have a dropdown list, what we require is when user selects an entry from drop down list and presses a button, we want to select that value from drop down list and then pass it to the method that will be called when button is pressed event..
I want to know two things
1. How do i get the selected value from dropdown ?
2. hw can i retain it to send it to method call in handle_event bit
thank you all

Hi,
If your application is stateless you have to capture the selected value in do_handle_data and assign it to the controller class attribute and later use this value in do_handle_event directly.
If your application is stateful, on your dropdownlist htmlb tag click F1 you can read the documentation which also shows how to capture the value of dropdownlist in do_handle_event. In the same documentation you can even find few samples provided and check those samples in your system.
Hope this helps.

Displaying ui element when selecting value from dropdown

hi,
i have a requirement when user select value from dropdown( some x from dropdown) textedit ui(where user can enter some text) should be displayed and submitted. please give some idea

Hi Babanmohi ,
First create a node in your context and under that create an attribute. Then add a Dropdown by Index and TextEdit UI on to your view. Bind both the UI element with the same attribute.
Then create an action on onSelect event of the DropDown UI element. Go to its implementation and write the following:
wdContext.current<Node name>Element.set<attribute name>(wdContext.current<Node name>Element.get<attribute name>)
For example, if in my context there is a node called testnode and under that if im having an attriburte called name, then do the following coding in the onSelect method of dropdown:
wdContext.currentTestnodeElement().setName(wdContext.currentTestnodeElement().getName());
Reply me if you have any issues

How to get the selected values from multiselected list

Hi,
I have a multiselect list displaying all the years from 2003 to 2008 (used dynamic LOV). The user can choose one or more years as per his needs, and then when user clicks on the link the selected values of the list are to be captured and a pop up page of a Discoveror report needs to be opened where these years get passed as a parameter. I tried several methods to capture the value, but either one or all are getting passed but not exactly what the user has chosen.
This is how it looks:
P2_FISCAL_YEAR is a multiselect list containing values from 2003,2004... 2008
If user chooses 2004 and 2007
then I want the url to capture these values and pass as parameters for my discoveror reports. as '&qp_fiscal_year=2004,2007'
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Sapna.

How can I select properties from dropdown lists using only the keyboard?

Hi,
I am using SAP Netweaver Studio and when modifying UI elements in views, I want to select the value for a property from the corresponding dropdown list in the Properties view using only the keyboard.
When a property row is selected, "Enter" toggles to Edit mode, Alt+ArrowDown expands the list, but ArrowUp or ArrowDown directly selects the previous/next item list and changes to Selected mode. Which key is used to navigate between the list items without selecting them immediately?
Thanks a lot. I deal with lots of views and this would save me quite a few massage hours

Javascript needed - need checkbox to check automatically based on selected item from dropdown list

I am building a fillable form. In this form, I have created items in a dropdown list. Based on the item picked from the dropdown list, I need a corresponding checkbox to be checked. I am certain there is an easy javascript to resolve my current problem. Please assist.
For example: dropdown list field (SubSupplier1) -   Demolition                            export value 2
                                                                                Rough Carpentry Labor       export value 4
                                                                                Rough Carpentry Material    export value 3
I need the corresponding checkbox (SalesTax1) to automatically be checked when Demolition (export value 2) or Rough Carpentry Material (export value 3) is selected.
Thank you,
Jennifer

Hi Jennifer,
This should help you do what you need. Place it in the Custom Calculation property of the dropbox and select "commit selected value immediately" in the fields options:
var drop = this.getField("SubSupplier1");
var check = this.getField("SalesTax1");
if ((drop.value == 2) || (drop.value == 3)){
check.checkThisBox(0,true);
else {
check.checkThisBox(0,false);
The code is asking if the export value of the field is either '2' or '3' and if so, check the box.
Otherwise uncheck the box.
If you don't want it to uncheck on other selections, remove the 'else' section of code.

Remove default value from dropdown list

I am currently working with Acrobat XI Pro version. I want to know whether it is possible to remove the default value from a dropdown list.
When the list has less than 4 items, it is possible to deselect the default value by pressing the whitespace below. However, when there are more items, this is not possible anymore.
I have read that you should include a whitespace as item in the item list, however, then you will see an empty list item when people are working with the pdf which is not preferable.
So, does anyone know how to remove the default value from a dropdown list?
Thanks!

Ok, I found a perfect workaround for my problem using FormsCentral for Acrobat. Here is what you should do:
Step 1:
-   Open FormsCentral
-   Create New Form (Choose Blank Form)
-   Click on the dropdown icon to create a new dropdown
-   Fill in the list items by clicking on the edit (you also can add a label if you want)
-   Click: File > Save as PDF Form...
Step 2:
-   Open the saved PDF (you now see a blank pdf with a dropdown menu)
-   Click: Tools > Forms > Edit Form (when a popup shows that you should save a copy of the document in order to make changes, press "Save as a copy" and open the pdf copy file with Acrobat)
-   Select the dropdown, copy the dropdown and paste it in the desired document
Now you have a dropdown menu without a default choice. Keep in mind that you cannot edit the items in the dropdown, because a default choice will be chosen and you have to use the pdf copy file again. As long as you don't click on a list item, it doesn't choose a default choice.
It is not a perfect solution, but it works for me.
Good luck and thanks!

ADF Get selected values from Dynamic Lists

Hi,
I have a created a dropdown list box where the list gets value through a managed bean. On commit I want the selected value to be saved into the CardiacV1EchoSched column of the Entity object (database). The source looks like this.
<af:selectOneChoice value="#{bindings.CardiacV1EchoSched.inputValue}"
label="#{bindings.CardiacV1EchoSched.label}"
valuePassThru="true">
<f:selectItems value="#{TTrack.carScheList}"/>
</af:selectOneChoice>
The problem is that getCardiacV1EchoSched() in the entity object class is null. The selected value does not get passed into #{bindings.CardiacV1EchoSched.inputValue} at all. If I bind the value to a variable in managed bean I get the selected value.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
not sure which business service you use to update the database, but if you use ADF Business Components then you need to call the commit operation

Problem in getting selected values from multiselect list

Hi,
I have two multiselect listboxes in my page. In List1 the data will be retrieved from DB and listed.I will have buttons to move the values from List1 to List2 and viceversa.
After selecting the needed values,I can rearrange them in List2 using some buttons. I have coded this moving and reordering using javascript.
What happens is while submitting the page I want the values from list2 which are rearranged. But im getting the order in which I moved from list1 to list2.
I am using html:selectfor both lists
List1
<html:select name="CustForm" property="custName" multiple="true" size="10">
<html optionsCollection property="CustomerNames" value="custName" label="id"/>
</html:select>I am having a customer form which has a arraylist CustomerNames. This arraylist has customer bean which has proeprties custName and id. The custForm also has a String custName.
List2
<html:select name="CustForm" property="selectedCustName" multiple="true" size="10">
<html option value=""/>
</html:select> The custForm also has a String[] selectedCustNames from where I get the selected values in list2
Please let me know what am I doing wrong here.

use a treeSelectionListener, that will give you all the selection changes you need.

Calculating dynamic values from dropdown lists

Hi all, here's the noob question of the day
I'm creating an invoice form in LiveCycle Designer and I'm totally stuck at tax calculations:
for each product you're able to choose between two tax percentages from a dropdown list and, at the end of the form, I want to show a total amount of each tax.
product
qty
unit price
vat
net price
red shoes pack
2
20$
4%
40$
black shoes pack
1
25$
4%
25$
white umbrella
1
10$
7%
10$
total net price
75$
+ TAX 4%
2.60$
+ TAX 7%
0.70$
Total
78.30$
How can I set the + TAX 4% and + TAX 7% fields to grab their respective product rows?
Sorry for my bad english.. I hope you get the question!

You woudl have to look at each row inside of a for loop and then determine if that row had 4% or 7% tax. Then you coudl keep a running total of the tax for you calcultions such that when the for loop ended you would have the 4 and 7% totals calculated.
Make sense?

Get the value from dropdown list (selectedIndex) and text field -- not working

Hi All,
I am trying to find and change by the values selected by user using dropdown and text field. Here is the code.
ChangeRevDetails();
function ChangeRevDetails(){
          var myDialog = app.dialogs.add({name:"Enter copyright information"});
//    var monthlist = col1.dropdowns.add('myList', undefined, myList);
          var col1 = myDialog.dialogColumns.add();
          var col2 = myDialog.dialogColumns.add();
    col1.staticTexts.add({staticLabel:"Month:"});
          col1.staticTexts.add({staticLabel:"Year:"});
    col1.staticTexts.add({staticLabel:"Rev. no.:"});
    var myList = [ "January", "February", "March", "April", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "Sepetember", "October", "November", "December" ];
     var myMonth = col2.dropdowns.add({stringList:myList, selectedIndex:0, minWidth:100});//{minWidth:100});
     var myYear = col2.textEditboxes.add({editContents:"2013", minWidth:100});
     var MyRev = col2.textEditboxes.add({minWidth:100});
    var RevMonth = (myList [myMonth.selectedIndex]);
    var RevYear = myYear.editContents;
    var RevNumber = MyRev.editContents;
    var RevToReplace1 = RevMonth +", "+ RevYear;
    var RevToReplace2 = RevMonth +", "+ RevYear + " Rev. " + RevNumber;
    var myResult = myDialog.show();
        if(myYear.editContents == "") //entry is ""
        alert("Please enter some text into the contents field.");
        ChangeRevDetails();
        else if(myResult == true) //user entered datas
            alert (RevMonth);
            alert (RevYear);
            alert (RevNumber);
            alert (RevToReplace1);
            alert (RevToReplace2);
            app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
            app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
            // grep find/change
            app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;
            app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "[\\l\\u]+?\\s?\\d{4},?\\s+[\\l\\u]+\\.*\\s+\\d+";
            app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = app.activeDocument.paragraphStyleGroups.item("Back page"). paragraphStyles.item("Legal_7/9");
            app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo = RevToReplace1;
            app.changeGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = app.activeDocument.paragraphStyleGroups.item("Back page"). paragraphStyles.item("Legal_7/9");
            app.activeDocument.changeGrep();
            app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
            app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing;
    else //implies user clicked cancel
    myDialog.destroy();
The problem is, it is not taking the value which the user selects from the dropdown and the text field. It takes the default value as "January" and the year is "2013" as both of these values are given as selectedIndex:0 and editContents:"2013". I have compared the coding with some other working scripts as well, but it is not working. I have added several alert boxes to check the value we get.
Also, the find and change is also not working. Please help me on this. Thanks.
Regards,
Muthuraj. D

Change the order for dialogresults:

var RevYear = myYear.editContents;
var RevNumber = MyRev.editContents;
var RevToReplace1 = RevMonth +", "+ RevYear;
var RevToReplace2 = RevMonth +", "+ RevYear + " Rev. " + RevNumber;
didn't have a look for the find change problem

How to capture the selected values from module pool dialog list box !

Hi experts,
Can anyone help me out in capturing the values from the list box.
i am able to set the values in the list box.But i am not able to capture the selected value from the list box. Always the list box name is getting as "space"
I also tried in using the FM "VRM_GET_VALUES" but it is retireving all the values. Is there is any flag for filttering out the selected value.
Your inputs are appreciated.
Thanks,
Vijay.

Along with the PBO and PAI event, add a POV event in the flow logic of the screen
DEMO_DROPDOWN_LIST_BOX -is a good demo example.
PROCESS ON VALUE-REQUEST.
FIELD structure_name-field_name MODULE create_dropdown_box.
In the report :
MODULE create_dropdown_box INPUT.
SELECT carrid carrname
                FROM scarr
                INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE itab_carrid.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
       EXPORTING
            retfield        = 'CARRID'
            value_org       = 'S'
       TABLES
            value_tab       = itab_carrid
       EXCEPTIONS
            parameter_error = 1
            no_values_found = 2
            OTHERS          = 3.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
ENDIF.
ENDMODULE.
In the layout, assign a Function Code , for eg : 'SELECTED' to the listbox and lets say name of the field is SDYN_CONN-CARRID. So in the PAI module,
MODULE user_command_0100 INPUT.
CASE ok_code.
    WHEN 'SELECTED'.
      MESSAGE i888(sabapdocu) WITH sdyn_conn-carrid.
ENDCASE.
ENDMODULE.
sdyb_conn-carrid will contain your selected field

Getting multiple values from a list box

Hi,
I am not able to get multiple selected values from a list box using the getParameterValues(). I used the following code..
String[] names=request.getParameterValues("lname");
can anyone tell me what the error is or is there any other way i can get multiple selected values from a list box.
Thanks
Satish

Fragment 1
This is the JSP Code am using for testing
<%
String[] name =request.getParameterValues("D1");
if(name.length==1)
String value=name[0];
Instead of name.lenght==1 try with name!=null
Fragment 2
out.println(value);
replace the above fragment with
%>
<%-- print result -->
<%=name[0]%>
<%
Fragment 3
else
%>
The list box D1 is a multiple select list box.
If it still doesn't work, check that the checkboxes have the same name as well as different values
<input type="checkbox" name="D1" value="1">
<input type="checkbox" name="D1" value="2">I hope this helps :-)
Good luck
