Sidebar region with scrollbars

I am using the 'Sidebar with no tabs' template on my pages. My sidebar region has moe items verticallly than the other regions. Why am I not seeing a scrollbar in my sidebar region, so it can scroll indepenently of the other regions? Currenly ,the scrollbar display for the entire page?

Hello,
Why would you expect to see scrollbars there automatically?
Did you change your html to put them there?
Isn't the standard result of an HTML page when the content is more than the visible screen to put a scrollbars on the whole page.
That being said you can edit your template either sidebar region or the page template with something 'like' this and you will get your second set of scrollbars.
<div style="overflow:auto;height:600px;">..........Content Here..........</div>
If you can't get it to work you should put an example on htmldb.oracle.com. UI problems are very hard to debug if you can't see them.

How to center a button in a sidebar region

Unfortunately, position options for buttons only include left and right. If I want to center buttons in a sidebar region, how might that be done?
It's easy in firebug to modify <td align="left"> to <td align="center"> which fixes everything, but I'm not sure how this might be overridden in apex.
I've attempted putting center tags in the header/footer of the sidebar region and some stylesheet options (I'm a stylesheet beginner so who knows...) but I've not had any luck.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
Paul

Hi,
It would depend on the theme that you are using and what else may be contained within the sidebar region.
For example, in Theme 12 with only buttons in the region, you could add the following into the page's HTML Header setting:
<style type="text/css">
.t12SideBarNav td td {text-align:center}
</style>.t12SideBarNav is the class name used for Theme 12's sidebar region and td td refers to a nested TD (table cell) tag within a TD tag within the region (the region, at least for Theme 12, is a table within a table). So, this aligns the contents of the inner TD tag which contains the buttons.

Tree in sidebar region

I have a page (No Tabs With Sidebar) that should show a tree region with tree in the sidebar (REGION_POSITION_02) however it doesn't. If I move the tree region to another position (REGION_POSITION_03) then it displays OK.
If I add a text field to the tree region then that displays OK wherever the region is placed.
Funny thing is this worked in APEX 2.2 but not now I've moved to 3.0.
Any ideas?

I used theme 10 (Sand). I've tried one of the others as well (can't remember which) but this had the same problem. In the mean time I've moved away from sidebar + tree and have opted instead for horizontal DHTML list at the top of my screen (with customized template to automatically open on MouseOver event). This way navigation is only one click instead of two and at the same time it leaves more room on the page itself to show tabular data.
I do remember that I did seem to be able to display the tree if I first closed my browser and called up the page again. My browser cache is cleared on shutdown so could this perhaps have an effect? B.t.w. I'm using Firefox 3.0 beta 4.
Also my first post was slightly misleading as I've tested it since in both APEX 2.2 and 3.0 and both had the same problem.
I can't show my application publically but I'll see if I can knock up something quickly on apex.oracle.com and post a link here. If it is a browser problem though I doubt whether I'll be able to reproduce it.

A region with horizontal scroll bar?

I do have a page with 2 regions next to each other:
region1 region2
In region1 I am retrieving and image from database. This image has fixed set of attributes like width and height. In region2 there is a text retrieved from DB. I would like to configure region2 so it will have same (fixed) width and height so in cases where there is more text so it would cause region2 to be taller there will be a horizontal scroll bar.
Is this done through ccs styles? Can any body advice how to accomplish this?
Thank you for your time.

Align buttons vertically in sidebar region

Good morning.
Hope someone can help me with a problem I'm having.
How do I align the buttons vertically in my region, they continually appear horizontally.
ie.
<Button1>
<Button2>
<Button3>
not like <Button1> <Button2> <Button3> which is how it looks at the moment.
Some Background Info:
I am using theme 17.
I have a region titled 'Letters' of type 'HTML Text' with a Sidebar Region template displayed in Page Template Body (3..) at Column 2.
Apex version 3.2.1.00.12 (still!)
IE 6 (still!)
I would be very grateful for any advice.
Thanks
Sue

Thanks for your speedy reply.
I am using region buttons.
I did try button items and they looked ok but I couldn't get them to call my javascript functions so I changed them to region buttons.
How would you suggest I change the template? Would you change the button template, the sidebar template or place some css in the page/region header?
Thanks
Sue

How to create the Contribution region with Native document

HI,
I have the below scenario to have the Contribution region in my custom page.
1) I am displaying all Campaign records in primary page.
2) When I click on each Campaign record, this will take me to secondary page to display the Editable Contribution region assigned with Native document.
My requirement :
3) I have 4 more Contribution Regions which will have to relate to the same above said Campaign in secondary page. To achieve this, I have only one contribution region with multiple elements within that region in my secondary page.
Please let me know how I can add different native documents to 4 different Contribution Regions. Now if I add different document to the region, same document will be assigned to the each region having different elements. Also if I add multiple regions in secondary page, primary page will only point to first region available in that secondary page.
Please let me know how I can add 4 different native documents to 4 different Contribution Regions available in secondary page. It would be great if any one give idea as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance.
Anyone did not come across this type of scenario?
Thanks,
Ramesh
Edited by: Ramesh_Est on Aug 10, 2010 9:35 PM

The secondary page is used to display a specified content item. One content item, specified on demand. Only one. Period.
If you want to assign multiple content items to multiple regions, well you're talking about primary pages.

Report region with sql query

Hi
I have a report region with sql query. There are two regions in page. On top of page, user enters data and after that second region show enterd data which is report region
based on sql query.
Now,when this page is opned, as user had not entered any thing, report region shows "no data found" message. Is it possible to remove that message or
may i conditionally disaply report region i.e if data is inserted then only report region is dispalyed.
Thanks

>
i was trying with select count(1) in expression.
>
Just for your info, COUNT() (without any grouping obviously) with always return 1 row. If there are no result for the query then 1 row will be returned with a value of zero - so there are results returned.
Secondly, why were you using COUNT(1) rather than COUNT(*)? That is is faster is a very common misconception and not true. If you need to know how many rows have been returned, use COUNT(*). If you need to take nulls into account (ie. not include them in your count) then use COUNT(column_name) and name the column that you are interested in specifically.

How to make a sidebar menu with subsection?

Hello
I've been trying to make a sidebar menu with subsections you can expand and collapse both in muse and edge animate but I just can't. I've search the net for tutorials for two weeks now, it's like such a menu just doesn't exist even tho I've seen them on several sites.
Thos is a picture of how I want it to look:
As a default, you can only see "home" and the two "subject". Then when you click on the first "subject", the two "tutorials" expand down, when you click on the individual "tutorials" the parts of that tutorial expands down. When you click on the buttons that expand subsection again, they collapse.
As I've said I've search for tutorials for weeks, the person I'm making the website with has also search without any luck at all. I've found a tutorial that lets me have 1 button with subsection expanding when mouse is over it, but nothing where there are buttons below the button you expand. I'm starting to thing it's just impossible, but I can't understand how it should be impossible. In case it actually is possible I need to re-thing the way I organise and navigate the entire site.
There is gonna be a whole lot of content on the site, we expect it to grow with up to 100 pages a month, therefor the navigation is obviously very important.
I really hope someone can help me! A link to a tutorial I haven't been able to find or a description on how to do it, thanks!

Hi,
I am relatively new to Muse and hardly an expert, but I just did what you are describing. Go to the Widget Library, Compositions > Blank. In the Target, insert a Vertical Menu (also in the Widgets Library). In the Options menu, under Menu Type select All Pages. If that doesn't work the way you want it to, you might have to select the Manual menu option.
Here's a short tutorial on how to use the Compositions Widget:

You might also look at Panels > Accordion. You can insert your menu into the Accordion Target.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
You can use following sample code to create advance table columns dynamically with colum groups as well.
It assumes that you have already created advance table with ID EmpTblRN.
Below code returns column heading dynamically and if you keep your VO column names and attributes
same in all the cases (COL1, COL2.....) then you can easily use a loop to create advance table columns.
It is attaching VO attributes to OAMessageStyledText bean in the last.
Hope it helps.
OAAdvancedTableBean advTable = (OAAdvancedTableBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("EmpTblRN");
Serializable [] param = {currentWindowSeq.toString()};
Datum[] colHeadingArray = (Datum[])am.invokeMethod("getColumnHeading", param);
String oldGrpName = null;
String newGrpName = null;
OAColumnGroupBean columnGroup = null;
DictionaryData columnFormat = new DictionaryData();
columnFormat.put(WIDTH_KEY, "4%");
for (int i = 0; i < colHeadingArray.length; i++)
try
oracle.sql.STRUCT os = (oracle.sql.STRUCT)colHeadingArray;
Object[] colHeadAttr = os.getAttributes();
newGrpName = (String)colHeadAttr[0];
if(newGrpName!=null)
if(!newGrpName.equals(oldGrpName))
// Create a column group, create the set the column header,
// and add the column group under the advanced table
columnGroup = (OAColumnGroupBean)createWebBean(pageContext, COLUMN_GROUP_BEAN, null, "ColGroup"+i);
OASortableHeaderBean columnGroupHeader = (OASortableHeaderBean)createWebBean(pageContext, SORTABLE_HEADER_BEAN, null, "ColGroupHeader"+i);
columnGroupHeader.setText(newGrpName);
// Retrieve from message dictionary
columnGroup.setColumnHeader(columnGroupHeader);
advTable.addIndexedChild(columnGroup);
oldGrpName = newGrpName;

OASortableHeaderBean column1Header = (OASortableHeaderBean)createWebBean(pageContext, SORTABLE_HEADER_BEAN, null, "Column1Header"+i);
column1Header.setText(colHeadAttr[1].toString());
column1.setColumnHeader(column1Header);
column1.setColumnFormat(columnFormat);
columnGroup.addIndexedChild(column1);
// Create the actual leaf item under the first column
OAMessageStyledTextBean leaf1 = (OAMessageStyledTextBean)createWebBean(pageContext, MESSAGE_STYLED_TEXT_BEAN, null, "Leaf"+i);

leaf1.setViewAttributeName("Week"+(i+1));

How to keep display as Show when using Hide Show region with pagination?

We are trying to use a 'Hide Show' region with pagination. The problem is that if you 'Show' (ie expand) the region and then hit the link for the next page, the next page displays Hidden (ie collapsed). We want to keep the page display as 'show' when you move to the next set of records.
There is a fix in this forum for this issue in version 2.2 (Application Express) but we are on 2.0.0.00.49 (HTML DB). Does anyone know of a similar fix for HTML DB 2?
Ver 2.2 fix is at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/packaged_apps/packaged_apps.html#STICKY
Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.
Running the application install script via SQL Plus using FLOWS_020000 produces result:
NOT COMPATIBLE (Your export may contain calls not supported by your HTMLDB version.)
The wwv_flow_api package routines that are not available in our version appear to be:
create_or_remove_file
create_install
create_install_script
Is there any way to handle these calls in other ways?
Thanks

A region with borders only no title or title bar

Hello Expert,
I am trying to create just a border around the region, In essence a region with just border and no title or title bar. There is no simple approach available for this option. Can anybody shed some light on this matter.
APEX Version : 4.1.0.00.32
Theme : Builder Blue 2 (I guess it is theme 2 in the APEX)
I tried various option utilizing border-less region template, report region, report region without title, No Template etc. along with following CSS style code, which I added into header section of the Page.
This option creates border on top of the region elements but do not cover the region elements like items, that also only in template with no button or titles
<style type="text/css">
#CRR {border-style:solid; -- CRR is a static ID for the region
border-width:1px;}
</style>
I also tried creating a template with new region and removed the title class and button class, which created a region without border but there is no line on the top only on the sides, which looked so weird. I am not sure what is the right solution, but a solution with new region template which only creates border and no title and title bar is good.
Kindly please let me know an approach if anybody is aware.
Thanks,
CP

Hi,
That is certainly helpful as it does create the border, however the border is created for two regions.
I have total four regions. At the top is breadcrumb region, below that is Report region displaying basic details. The third region is a list region waith navigation tab only and it is borderless region. The fourth regions has all the form items for which I wan the border only. With your suggestion, I am able get the border but it is now covering both region 3 and 4. I just want only on 4th region. The foruth region template I modified to "Region without button and titles" the way you suggested.
The Region 3 and Region 4 has same class .bl-body, hjowever I didn't put any static id to region 3. I tried with naming the static id in region 3 with different name, but that didn't change anything.
Ideally I would prefer a new region template so I can use it for multiple pages.
Here is what I did,
Opened shared components in the application, selected templates link. Copied a specific template (Report Region) as a new template and in the definition where there is a code, I removed few lines of code. which is follwowing
Removed Code
<div class="rc-blue-top"><div class="rc-blue-top-r">
<div class="rc-title">#TITLE#</div>
<div class="rc-buttons">#CLOSE##PREVIOUS##NEXT##DELETE##EDIT##CHANGE##CREATE##CREATE2##EXPAND##COPY##HELP#</div>
</div></div>
this removed the title and those buttons, but the border was only to left , right and bottom and there was gray backgroud.
Full Code
<div class="rounded-corner-region" id="#REGION_STATIC_ID#" #REGION_ATTRIBUTES#>
<div class="rc-blue-top"><div class="rc-blue-top-r">
<div class="rc-title">#TITLE#</div>
<!-- <div class="rc-buttons">#CLOSE##PREVIOUS##NEXT##DELETE##EDIT##CHANGE##CREATE##CREATE2##EXPAND##COPY##HELP#</div>
</div></div>
<div class="rc-body"><div class="rc-body-r"><div class="rc-content-main">#BODY#</div></div></div>
<div class="rc-bottom"><div class="rc-bottom-r"></div></div>
</div>
Thanks for the previous input.
Further help is highly appreciated.

Cannot generate a reports region with a search field in an existing app.

I have not found a way of generating a reports region with a search field on an existing page in an existing application.
Can anyone help?

If it's DPS no. There is no native search available.
You'd have to do the entire thing in HTML.

Multi update region with 5 checkboxes - problem in updating

Hi,
I have a multi update region with more 5 checkboxes which 2 tables LO & SCLO. LO ID is the unique id for each row.
1st checkbox - If we select 1st checkbox, I am adding a record to SCLO with LO ID.
2nd Checkbox - yes/no attribute in SCLO table.
3rd - 5th checkboxes - T/F attributes in LO table.
Everything is working well if there is LO ID, because I will have a hidden item for LO ID and process where I am only updating LO and adding SCLO.
When I add a new LO, the trouble occurs for updating 3rd - 5th ck boxes because there will be null value for all the columns in the row.
What I did is, I first insert LO and gets LO ID from OUT parameter, sets 3rd - 5th ckboxs as null. Then get the out parameter (LO ID) and tried to update again the LO table which is causing some problem and the code, loops are getting very tricky.
Is there any easy way to handle this?

Try waiting, a lot of people are also interested in updating to iOS 5.1 so it's probably server related.
Hope I helped,

Editable region with ecommerce

Can client without dreamweaver update content in an editable region containing Paypal ecommerce buttons?
My client wants to be able to update region with seasonal item photo and add to cart button.


We need to update this empty region with content across 300+ pages, but the basic Find & Replace will not do the trick, as this is a locked region within the child page and therefore -- I believe -- is not 'findable'. Aside from manually updating each page with the tracking pixel (groan!), is there an Ace up anyone's sleeve to help me expedite this task?
Help me understand what you are trying to do, please. The region you show above and are wanting to populate (as I understand it) is not a locked region. It would be completely editable in both template and child pages. However, if what you want is to make changes to a NON-EDITABLE region, you could do that several ways:
1. Use a server-side include to carry the desired content into the non-editable region. The link to the include would be in the non-editable part of the template, but the include file is still editable.
2. Use a DW Library item in the exact same way.
3. Add the desired content in a PHP block at the top of the page, and then just echo it where desired.
The advantage of method 1 is that you edit one file and upload it, and all 300 pages are changed at the server level. The advantage of method 2 is that you edit one library file, and all pages will also be changed, but then you must upload all 300 pages subsequent to that change. The advantage of method 3 is that it, too, is simple both to implement and to Find/Replace when needed, but again, all changed pages need to be uploaded.
