Set session variables inside a page

Inside the page "form.cfm" I have this code:
<form name="report" action="pagestatistic.cfm"
method="post">
<INPUT name=ONE size=15 >
<INPUT name=TWO size=15 >
<input type="submit" value="Go ON">
</form>
I would like to set session variable: ONE and TWO, inside the
page: pagestatistic.cfm
IN that way when I will refresh the page "pagestatistic.cfm"
I will watch have the same results.
I added this code at the top of "pagestatistic.cfm" but it
doesn't work.
<CFSET session.ONE = #ONE#>
<CFSET session.TWO = #TWO#>
Could you tell me what goes wrong?
Thanks

I mean I clicked a link that links the same page:
pagestatistic.cfm
Then I would like to add to this link 2 get variables
pagestatistic.cfm?ColorPage=Green&Order=2 to change the
background color and the order of the results of the page. That it
is impossible because when i refresh the page it is doesn't work.
What do you suggest me to do?

Inablility to retrieve values of session variables in irpt page

We currently are using xMII 11.5. We are having difficulty retrieving values assigned to our created session variables.
We have defined 2 users, each associated with session variables whose values differ by user. Each user is associated with a different irpt page which retrieves information based on the values passed by the session variables. Both pages return correct information in the grid using the as the param.1 value on the opening of the page.
On one page, we are able to retrieve the values of the session variables in Javascript by placing hidden fields on the document and using the document.getelementbyID("hiddenValue1").value. The other irpt will only bring back the name of the of the session variable in the curly braces, .
Both users are set up the same in System Security and Data Access. If we switch the pages opened for the user in the Portal Navigation, one page will return the values no matter which user and the other page will always bring back the session variable name in the braces. This makes us believe that it is not a problem with the user setup or the definition of the session variables.
Would anyone be able to help us understand what needs to be done to correct this issue?

Michelle,
Have you tried URL encoding your irpt pass through parameters in your Navigation link? Perhaps the commas and parenthesis are causing some issues ( http://help.sap.com/saphelp_xmii115/helpdata/en/Getting_Started/Template_Editor/Query_Construction.htm )
Just to clarify, the Role/User attributes defined in LHSecurity are truly session properties, and the session properties are shown by the PropertyAccessServlet results. Adding the name/value pairs to the URL are only a one-shot pass through to the ReportServlet that processes web pages with .irpt extenstions, so they don't actually set the session properties and are non-retentive beyond the one page. As you are presently doing with the navigation links, we typically recommend URL passthroughs for page to page activities and using the session itself for name/value pairs that you want to set once and use anywhere throughout your application.
document.APPLET.getPropertyValue(NAME); will also give you access to the session through javascript, but if you do a view...source in the browser after your TeamLeaderView web page has loaded you should see the results of the search/replace efforts of the ReportServlet, and the javascript you are using to get values out of hidden form field elements should simply reflect the text you see in the view source window.
If they work inside APPLET tags like you mentioned for Param.1 you could also use document.APPLET.getQueryObject().getParam(1); instead of the hidden form field elements, and remember that you have 32 params and if they are not used in the underlying query can provide a very nice place to 'catch' the results like you are are doing with hidden form field elements that could potentially get reset by a form button.

Access session variable inside AM module

Is there any way to access session variable inside AM module custom function?
I created one client interface function in AM and want to access one session variable value inside AM custom function.
Please suggest.
Thanks

Hi
here i need help to find out right approach,my use case are below
1.User will login thorough SSO .
2.Based on used id i need to display user data in table form.
3.User-id will need to display in right corner of page template ( JSF page with this page template)
4.user can update/create new table data by pressing update/createinsert button.
5.Once user press the create new request button,one empty row will popup which have user-id filled automatically (used-id who logged in) and will read only ,so that once user commit the data,DB can update/insert the data with that user-id
so far i have done point 1,2,4 and 5 like
1.i created AM preparesession and store the use id.
2.i have putted whereclause in AM for particular VO and run execute query and able to see particular user data,who logged in.
4.created servicemethod for createinsert in AM and exposed it ,and set used-is table attribute which i got in AM preparession .Now i am able to see new row with user-id in one column in read only form when
Is this the right approach ? and now i am not able to do step 3 so how to display same user-id in pagetemplate as this value is available in AM only.

Access Session variable inside Transaction

Hi All,
Is it possible to access session variables inside Transaction.
Create session variable.
Update session variable value
acccess Session variable.
(user session)
Regards,
Sachin

Hi Sachin,
Here is the snapshot:
1. Take session variable in a local JS variable in HTML page.
2. Create a transaction with a input type variable in Transaction Properties.
3. Create a Xacute query and link the above transaction.
4. Creata a iCommand applet on HTML page and link the query template:
<PARAM NAME="QueryTemplate" VALUE=".../QueryName">
Call the function in the below way in HTML:
Applet.getQueryObject().setParam(1,vaiable)
So, the session variable will go to TRX (BLT) and perform the operations as per your need..
You can pass it to other TRX by the same way.
To fetch the value: Create output type variable in TRX 2. Create Xacute query.
Get the value with : Applet.getValue(1,1)
Hope it is useful.
Best Regards,
Kedar

Can I set session variables from inside my Javascript?

hi all,
i want to set a couple of session variable while i am inside my javascript.
can I do that?
m_asu

No. JavaScript runs on the client and the session is on the server. You can use JavaScript to set parameters that get passed back in the request and can then be put in the session.

Set Session Variable

Hello,
Anyone know how to set a session variable from data entered within a messageTextInput field from a uix page within a JHeadstart application?
I tried to trigger an event to write the session but was unsuccessful.
Any ideas?
-Jeff

Jeff,
We do not support UIX events, because they are part of the UIX Controller. We use the Oracle9iAS MVC Framework (or Struts in next release) as the Controller.
So, if you want to put a value of a messageTextInput on the session, you need to write a custom process that does this. Note that the MVC Framework provides an abstraction called the InfoTable around the Session object.
In chapter 2 of the JHeadstart User Guide, section "Writing a Custom Process" you can find more information on reading and writing information from/to the InfoTable.

Error Setting Environment Variable inside Listner.ora

Hi,
I am trying to set an environment variable inside listner.ora as follows
(ENVS="EXTPROC_DLLS=ANY,LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/app/oracle/product/9.2/lib32:/opt/app/oracle/product/9.2/network/lib32:/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6:/usr/dt/lib,LIBPATH=/opt/app/oracle/product/9.2/lib32,MQSERVER=SYSTEM.DEF.SVRCONN/TCP/ashsou03.mcilink.com(4444)")
but every time I try to start the listner it gives me the following error:
TNS-01155: Incorrectly specified SID_LIST_LISTENER parameter in LISTENER.ORA
NL-00303: syntax error in NV string
I think that the parenthses, (4444), in the MQSERVER value is causing this. Any ideas on how I can configure it?

'In Between' Date Prompt to set Session Variables???

Hi
Im very new to OBIEE and was hoping someone could help me. I have a date prompt using the 'in between' operator based on a date column.
I am trying to set up a table in the Physical layer of the RPD using a stored proc (EXEC sp_name). The stored proc takes 2 input paramaters - a start data and an end date. These dates i would like to come from the in between prompt. I have set up the physical table structure to receive the results of the request.
I looked at setting a session variable but it is asking me to insert sql to set the value and i dont want to hit the database outside of the stored proc. Also, even if i have session variables i cant see how to set them to the values in the prompt when using the 'In Between' operator.
Im really very confused and i have been searching the net and the documentation for any clue.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

In between operator doesn't support presentation variable..
so break this into is into two prompts...and use equal to operator, then you can use them as request variables which will in turn override your session variables.
in the report use operator between and use these variables in the filter..

Use of Session Variable in Dashboard Page XML

Hi All,
Can we use a Session variable in the Dashboard Page XML?
My Requirement is,
There are 1000+ users, each user will have access to same dashboard. But a different report in the same dashboard.
So we want to Save individual user reports in the location /users/LOGIN_NAME/Financials/ABC
and dynamically change the Dashboard Page XML, to accept Session Variable VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.USER) in place of LOGIN_NAME.
So that for each user, they will see only their report.

On the face of it, Session is ideal for this, however this is SharePoint and the obvious isn't always the best.
You'd need to do the calculation about memory usage and number of concurrent users to ensure it really is a viable option in Production.
If it isn't viable, or wouldn't scale to possible future usage what would you do? Then you need to ask if it's really necessary to move between pages? If the user needs to move through a dialog for example, that could be hosted on a single page which might
have different controls or sections made visible as the user progressed through the use case.
Passing data between pages in SharePoint is a lot more difficult than it should be. Sometimes it's best to stay put, and certainly safer than using Session if you're really not sure if Session will stop your solution from scaling.
Always remember, SharePoint might be hosted on ASP.NET but the design considerations are significantly different than if this were a pure ASP.NET application.

Application.cfm - Should I use queries or set session variables?

Hi,
I have an application that has many users for many different
companies logged in at the same time using the system. I use the
application.cfm to call and set a bunch of variables that make the
system work, such as preferences and things. Would it be better to
use 5 or 6 queries all pulling one record, or call the queries only
once at the start of the session and set 30 to 50 session variables
based on the query results? Which method would bog the system down
less? It seems that session variables use quite a bit of memory.
I'm just trying to get the "simple answer" for this, if that's even
possible.
Please let me know your thoughts and experience on this.
Thanks much,
Jeff W!

In order to give you a simple "do it this way" answer, more
information is needed.
How long does it take to run those 5-6 queries on each
request? How many users are logged in at peak times? How much data
would you be storing in the session for each user? How much RAM do
you have on your server?
On one application, we've decided to go the session variable
route. The size for each users' session maxes out at 2.5 KB. We
have 512 MB dedicated to CF, but can easily scale up on the
hardware we have to 1.5 GB or more. At 512 MB, 2.5 KB per user
session, we can handle a little over 200,000 concurrent users
(assuming all CF memory could be utilized for session variables,
which isn't true). There are only 6,000 users total in our system,
so we have quite a bit of headroom.
Are you on CF8? If so, open up the server monitor, start
monitoring, profiling, and memory tracking, and log in with a
couple users (with your code setup to store all that info in the
session). See how much storage each session takes. Then look at
your server. How much RAM do you have? what do you currently have
allocated to ColdFusion? What's your peak concurrent user level? Do
you have headroom? Also, see if the benefits of storing it in the
session are even worth it (how long do those 5-6 queries add to
each requst?)

How to re-set session variables in OCI when a TAF callback is invoked ?

Can you show me an example of how to re-set NLS_DATE_FORMAT when the Failover ends ( that is, in OCI_FO_END )? All I see is the template code provided by Oracle to handle TAF event.
How to register TAF callback function

You can re-set the variable just like you set it at the beginning of the connection in the switch branch you mentioned.
Doesn't it work?

Setting session variable names based on variables in a loop

I am trying to set up a loop that sets up a list of variables based upon a list, by looping over the list and setting the session.NAME:
<CFLOOP list="#fieldnames#" index="fieldname">
<cfset session.#fieldname# = "1">
</CFLOOP>
It does not seem to like session.A_CF_VARIABLE . so session.#fieldname# does not work, I get an error
A CFML variable name cannot end with a "." character.
The variable session. ends with a "." character. You must supply an additional structure key or delete the "." character.
Do I have to wrap it a different way?
Thanks
Mark

ahh. great. that fixed the loop problem. My second problem now appears that I am not picking up the correct data.
My test data has a form post with field names EMAIL and GENDER, and then I was trying to write session.email = VALUE_OF_FORM_FOR_EMAIL .. session.gender = VALUE_OF_FORM_FOR_GENDER, but what I am actually doing is writing the values EMAIL and GENDER into the session. so session.email has the value EMAIL.. and not what I typed into the form.
I guess it's because the fieldname in the index is also used as the name in the form and it's confusing it, so it goes for the wrong one, not the value from the form.
the alternative would be to append something to the name of each field in the form.. so email is F_email and F_gender... although i tried this and using <CFSET session[fieldname] = "F_#fieldname"> but that threw an error, maybe just a formatting issue. I'd prefer to try and make it work without appending anything to the form names
Here's some test code that has the form fields hard coded -->
<CFSET fieldnames="email,gender">
<CFSET email = "[email protected]">
<CFSET gender = "M">
<CFLOOP list="#fieldnames#" index="fieldname">
<cfset session[fieldname] = '#fieldname#'>
</CFLOOP>
Thanks once again for the help
Mark

Setting session variables in application context using OpenJPA

Hi!
I am using openjpa 1.2 with EJB 3.0. I am connecting to Oracle 11g database and need to use the oracle virtual private database for security and data segregation. For this purpose, I need to set some custom variables at the session level of the application context such as the application user name. Since, I am using container injected EntityManager using @PersistenceContext, I am finding it hard to do so.
Can anyone please help me out
Thanks in advance
Abhi

You will probably want to ask your question on an OpenJPA forum to see if they even can support VPD (if not, see EclipseLink http://wiki.eclipse.org/Introduction_to_EclipseLink_Sessions_(ELUG)#Isolated_Client_Sessions_and_Oracle_Virtual_Private_Database_.28VPD.29 )
You might also want to try injecting the factory instead and use that to get the EntityManager instead of injecting the em directly. ie
@PersistenceUnit(unitName="my-pu")
private EntityManagerFactory emf;
Best Regards,
Chris
