SOS - Drop down lists don't drop

Hello All, When my company went from N61 to N6P my drop down boxes all worked. It was wonderful! Now only my transaction drop down box functions properly. Re-typing things like EKPO in the table box or 30000000 to 39999999 in the material number field is frustrating. I don't care what caused them to change. I just want to be able to do whatever I need to make them dropdown again. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

Judi

Drop down lists don't diplay, just flash for an instant

Drop down lists display in Internet Explorer, but not when I'm using Firefox. I'm using version 7 on Windows 7. The list flashes for a second but doesn't display for a selection. If I enter the first letter of a list item, the item will be retrieved as a selection.

Try to Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.
See:

You can also try to disable plugins to see if that helps.

On my i tunes page on my laptop, I don't see a tab for Photos in the drop down list in my library, so I can't download photos from my laptop. What am I doing wrong?

On my drop down list in my library in i Tunes, I don't see a Photo tab. How do I find that so I can download photos from my hard drive?

No, not on the File menu. Click on the Device that shows up when connected:
Either:
If you do not use the Sidebar, when the iPod is connected to iTunes, you should see this icon appear to the left of the iTunes Store button:
Click on the ringed icon (but not on the "eject" part of it!).
Or
If you use the Sidebar, you will see the Device appear, as shown below:
Click on it.
Once you have clicked on the Device, you should see this (Summary) pane, with the word Summary darkened:
Click on Photos (as ringed above)...
Now you are on the Photos pane (notice Photos is now darkened), where there is a drop-down menu. It's that box that says "My Pictures", where you will find "Choose Folder". That option allows you to choose (as I did) "My Pictures".
Notice in the last screenshot that a message at the very top of the image states that the "iPod Sync is complete". Choosing the folder after the Sync has completed (or passed the "sync photos" section) simply means that it requires another Sync for that change to take effect.
That's it.
Now, whatever pictures you place in the chosen folder will be added to your iPod at the following Sync. Likewise, any pictures you remove from that folder will be removed from the iPod at the following Sync.
You only need to look on the Photos pane if you wish to change the folder option.

A simple process I just don't know - how to make one drop down list dependent on another.

Drop-Down List One has 17 office names. Drop-Down List Two has sub-office names associated with each of the 17 main offices. If user selects Office 3 from Drop Down List One, only sub-offices associated with Office 3 should appear as choices in Drop-Down List Two. How do I do that?

How do I restore an old Iphone 3gs backup if it does not appear in the "restore backup" drop-down list?

Hi
Last night I tried to install ios 6.1.2. The install failed. I tried again and this time it recommended restoring the phone - I agreed and it worked, but after the restore was completed, I could not get out of the set-up assistant screens on the phone. It kept saying either connect to Itunes, or connected to Itunes - there was no conclusion of the set-up process.
So again I chose to restore the phone - this time I got through the process and asked it to restore my last back up. It did so, but it turns out the back-up is empty. Looking at the time of the back-up, I think what happened is the phone synced while it was stuck in the set-up assistant, and the old backup with all my data was overwritten with a new empty back up.
If I use windows explorer I can see a back-up set from earlier in the evening that should contain all my data (6pm) but when I look in iTunes that backup set is not available for selection in the "restore back-up" drop down list. Perhaps its only a partially completed backup, but at 1.55gb it sure contains a lot of valuable data. How can I make iTunes see or use the 6pm backup set?

yes - sadly I think that's what happened. As the phone was connected, it was syncing and backing up automatically while I tried to complete the set-up process. So an empty back-up overwrote the full one. But the full back up is still there in the application data files - it must have done a back-up automatically before it restored the phone. So why can't I see it and use it in iTunes? Very frustrating!

Get/Set values from a drop down list

I am trying to modify the http://www.netbeans.org/kb/60/web/web-jpa-part2.html so that instead of entering the data from a text field (in update & add) the values come from a drop down list from a table. I have drop down lists that are populated bothe from the DB and hard coding. When I run, I am able to see the options on the DDs. But none of the CRUD work. I think this is because my set and get for the drop down is wrong. Then again, I also have a few text fields from the original example which also don't seem to work. Here is a piece of my addButton():
        RowKey[] selectedRowKeys = getTableRowGroup1().getSelectedRowKeys();
        PaymentDetails[] pv = getSessionBean1().getPaymentVoucher();
        int rowId = Integer.parseInt(selectedRowKeys[0].getRowId());
        PaymentDetails upPV = pv[rowId];
        bankCodeDD.getSelected();
        statusDD.getSelected(); // hard coded value
      upPV.setPrepBy((String) prepByField.getText());
      PaymentDetailsController pvController = new PaymentDetailsController();
        pvController.addPaymentDetails(upPV);
        addRequest = false;
        return null;How do I set and get the values from the drop down so than it passed to my bean? When I choose a row to be updated, make changes and click Update, I get this message on my Tomcat:
com.sun.webui.jsf.component.DropDown::The current value of component form1:deptCodeDD does not match any of the selections.
Did you forget to reset the value after changing the options?Can someone please point me to a place which shows how I can add a default value from my DD? I tried to follow http://www.netbeans.org/kb/55/dropdowncomp.html, but unable to complete because I get an error for Options api.

I don't guess what I may add.
The contents of the table named lookup appear on the screenshot.
cell A1 contains the string One-Piece, cell B1 contains the 'associated' value 160.
cell A2 contains the string Two-Piece, cell B2 contains the 'associated' value 130.
cell A3 contains the string Three-Quarter, cell B3 contains the 'associated' value 150.
Now table Main
In column B the cells contain a pop_up menu with four items like the ones described by Jerrold.
In column C of the cells contain the formula :

Using the values from a drop down list to display in a separate cell

Hi all,
I must apologise if I don;t use the right 'terminology' as I am just an ordinary guy who uses a mac. I am also deaf which means I am totally dependant on the internet for fixing solutions.
Basically, I wanted to create a drop down list which I had no problem doing.
In the drop down, I have the options One-Piece, Two-Piece and Three-Quarter.
I would like to get it so that when I select the One-Piece, the value of 160 appears in a separate cell. If I select Two-Piece, then I would need 130 to appear in that separate cell. Likewise, Three-Quarter to produce 150.
Just to clarify, if we had a two-column and one row table, then the drop-down would be in A1, which the values would appear in B1.
I do not know the formula, and cannot find any instructions anywhere as I am probably using the wrong terminology or function name!
Any help would be much, much appreciated..
Carl

Web UI - Value not getting selected from drop down list .

Hi All ,
I am facing a problem in one of the fields which is enhanced with a drop down functionality .
I have created the GET_V_** method and also the GET_P_** method for the same .And finally I am able to see the values in the drop down list . But the problem is , when I am trying to select a value from the drop down no values are selected .
Can anyone plese help me in this as What has to be done .
I have taken references from few guides but I am not getting any clear idea of what has to be done .
Regards,
Ranjita

Hi Ranjita,
To trigger a round trip, you must have given the event name in GET_P method.
Same event handler would trigger.
Please put a break point in Event Handler in IMPL class, and in SET_attr method of the attribute in CN class and see if value is getting set properly or not. Final value that would be displayed on UI would be there in GET_attr method of CN class.
I hope it helps.
Thanks,
Rohit

Drop down list value dependant on value in another drop down list

Hi
I am not familiar with Java Script so if anyone can advise me on this I would be grateful. I am using ADobe Livecycle V8.0.
I have two drop down lists - DDL1 and DDL2.
The choices in DDL1 are "High, Medium, Low, None"
The choices in DDL2 are "Positive, Negative, None"
If "None" is selected in DDL1 I want DDL2 to display "None".
If any of the other values are selected in DDL1, then I don't want anything autofilled in DDL2.
Hope this makes sense!
Thank you.

This should do the trick:
in the "change" event of DropDownList1, put this:
if (xfa.event.newText == "None"){
DropDownList2.selectedIndex = 3; // at pos. 3, you should have "None"
// otherwise change here at your convenience
else {
DropDownList2.selectedIndex = 0; // here first element empty/default
// maybe you prefer the last one
Note that generally dropdown boxes have the first or last element empty/default; this way, when you script the "else" part, you can easily reset DropDownList2.

How can I get a drop-down list selection also be selected in another field with the same list but a different name?

I have a street address and a billing address. A question is posed with a checkbox — "Is the billing address the same as the street address?" If Yes is checked, the street address automatically fills the billing fields. If No is checked, the user must fill in new information. In both the street address and billing addres, the State field is a drop-down list. How can I get the drop-down list selection in the street address State also be selected in drop-down list for the billing address State?

Has anyone done this?

The drop-down list that appears when typing in the Google search bar doesn't work. Clicking on an item on that list does nothing. This very useful feature is broken.

I just installed FireFox 4. In previous versions typing in the Google search box automatically created a drop-down list of items. One could click on an item on the list and proceed to a Google results page. In FireFox 4, the list appears but clicking on an item on the drop-down menu does nothing. It's broken and it was a very useful feature in previous versions.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

Drop down list based on log in username - php mysql

I have a drop down list of client names on a php page that filters a second drop down list of site names.
At the moment, any user who logs in can see the entire list of clients, however I want to filter the list based on their username log in.
This is the entire page code, the section in bold is the drop down list in question:
<?php
if (!isset($_SESSION)) {
session_start();
$MM_authorizedUsers = "asguser,admin,member";
$MM_donotCheckaccess = "false";
// *** Restrict Access To Page: Grant or deny access to this page
function isAuthorized($strUsers, $strGroups, $UserName, $UserGroup) {
// For security, start by assuming the visitor is NOT authorized.
$isValid = False;
// When a visitor has logged into this site, the Session variable MM_Username set equal to their username.
// Therefore, we know that a user is NOT logged in if that Session variable is blank.
if (!empty($UserName)) {
    // Besides being logged in, you may restrict access to only certain users based on an ID established when they login.
    // Parse the strings into arrays.
    $arrUsers = Explode(",", $strUsers);
    $arrGroups = Explode(",", $strGroups);
    if (in_array($UserName, $arrUsers)) {
      $isValid = true;
    // Or, you may restrict access to only certain users based on their username.
    if (in_array($UserGroup, $arrGroups)) {
      $isValid = true;
    if (($strUsers == "") && false) {
      $isValid = true;
return $isValid;
$MM_restrictGoTo = "accessdenied.html";
if (!((isset($_SESSION['MM_Username'])) && (isAuthorized("",$MM_authorizedUsers, $_SESSION['MM_Username'], $_SESSION['MM_UserGroup'])))) {
$MM_qsChar = "?";
$MM_referrer = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (strpos($MM_restrictGoTo, "?")) $MM_qsChar = "&";
if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']) && strlen($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']) > 0)
$MM_referrer .= "?" . $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
$MM_restrictGoTo = $MM_restrictGoTo. $MM_qsChar . "accesscheck=" . urlencode($MM_referrer);

I think I need to amend the sql statement to something like this - but I haven't quite got it right:

Where do I drop the code for the colname info?
name:colname
type: text
default value: -1
run time value: $_SESSION['MM_Username']
Thanks!

I don't do PHP but it would be something like:
$sql = sprintf (SELECT DISTINCT * FROM qry_test WHERE username = %s GROUP BY client_name ASC, $_SESSION['MM_Username'] );
or you can just embed the session variable into the sql string.
But why are you using the GROUP BY clause? If you just need a distinct list of names, use the DISTINCT keyword and reduce your select list to only the needed column.

How to set a default value in a Value Help Drop Down List

Hi,
I used an age Range field in my adobe form, the control is a Value Help Drop Down List. i am populating the drop down using following code.
IWDAttributeInfo ageInfo = wdContext.nodePersonalData().getNodeInfo().getAttribute("CTAgeRange");
     ISimpleTypeModifiable ageType = ageInfo.getModifiableSimpleType();
     IModifiableSimpleValueSet ageValueSet = ageType.getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();
     ageValueSet.put("1","21-29");
     ageValueSet.put("2","30-34");
     ageValueSet.put("3","35 or Above");
My requirement is to set a default value e.g. 30-34 in the age range field.
I want to give input to iform from my Implementation code only.
Please help.
Thanks in advance

hi Ranjan,
that means you have to set at design time,
to set default drop down value you will have to set the value for particular attribute (which is linked to the dropdown element) in the context
like
wdContext.currentContext<nodeName>Element.set<FieldName>(<default value>)
This generally done in Initialization method of the controller.

Populateing a drop down list in a repeating sub form

I have been using the scripts from the Purchase Order sample that work with the Country and States/Provinces drop down lists and have modified them to fit my needs. The scripts work great. However I have a drop down list that is in a repeating sub form and the only the drop down list in the first occurance of the sub form works. The others don't.
I put this line of code in a field called drpOrderedByTeam.
JobsScript.getJobsOther(xfa, xfa.resolveNode("form1.TimeSheetSF.DetailsSF[*].DetailsTable.DetailsRow.ItemNumber"));
I thought I just needed to add an "[*]" to the name of the sub form and it would work with all occurances but it doesn't seem so and I'm not sure what else to do.

Based on your explanations, I've attempted to re-create your form and I think I've got it working the way you'd like it to.
There are some difficulties with using fields in table headers which are replicated on subsequent pages because while new instances of the header subform and the fields it contains are created, you don't have access to these instances using the header's Instance Manager (I think this is a bug but I'm not sure). This means that you can't iterate through the instances of the header in order to populate the task lists depending on the selection in the team list. One solution for this is to make all header fields Global (select each field and, in the Object palette's Binding tab, set the
Default Binding property to
Global). This means that all instances of these fields will share the same value. The effect is that when you change the value of a field on an instance of a header on any page, the change will be replicated on all instances on all pages. The catch, though, is when you use lists in the header. Making list fields global doesn't mean that their item lists are global -- which causes other headaches.
In the end, because of the problems I've described, I had to resort to cheating a little but if you think about it, it's not really cheating. What the form does is whenever the team list value changes, it removes all instances of the DetailsSF rows. This has the effect of also removing all instances of the DetailTitlesSF headers accross the current page set (and removes all pages but the first one). Then 6 new instances of the DetailsSF row are generated and the DetailTitlesSF header is re-populated using the new selection in the team list. After that, if a new page gets generated because of the number of instances of the DetailsSF rows, the new instances of the task lists in the new instances of the DetailTitlesSF header will have the correct list of items based on the current value of the team list. In the end, even though I'm cheating by removing all instances of the DetailsSF row in order to reset the lists in the DetailTitlesSF header, it's not really cheating because if you change teams, then it should be assumed that all data entered doesn't apply anymore because the tasks change as well... Convinced?
The best way to understand this is to check-out the sample form.
Let me know if you have any questions.

RE: Using Drop-Down List in Express Application

The easiest way to do this is to define a domain for Gender that maps to
a droplist widget. ForteExpress will then automatically display the
widget in any ArrayWindow or FormWindow in which Gender appears. (I
don't think outlinefields support this widget.) There is a documented
customization for adding SQL to the domain to automatically fill it, but
we've found this to be a performance drag. What we usually do is cache
this type of list information on the client, usually by loading it into
arrays of listelement in a service object at user logon. The list is
then ready to go whenever a window needs it, and you can set the element
list of the droplist in PostOpenInit or wherever it seems appropriate.

Subject: Using Drop-Down List in Express Application
On an Express generated Form window I want to use a drop-down list to
define the list of valid values for a database field. The underlying
database field could have a datatype of either integer or character.
For example, on the database we have a Gender column defined. I want to
use a drop-down list that displays descriptions of "Male" and "Female" for
allowed database values of "M" and "F". The Gender column is updateable on
the window.
Any suggestions on the best way to do this? Would we need to do anything
different on Array windows?
