Special characters doesn't show in drop-down list

I've created a two level drop-down menu using javascript
var vComp1 = ["sub1","text1","text2","text3","text4"];
var vComp2 = ["sub2","text1","text2","text3","text4"];
var cRtn = app.popUpMenu(vComp1, vComp2);
I't works like i wanted, but int the text, i used an & character
var vComp1 = ["Fruit","apple & pear","orange & mandarin","peach"];
Using the form on an Apple OSX computer it works fine.
But with Acrobat Reader on a Windows computer the & character changes in an underscore ( _ )
How can i fix this?

The ampersand is reserved for accelerators. However, if you place it twice
(one after another), it will show up.

  • LMS 4.2.3 variable name not show in drop-down list

    Hi all,
    I am trying to use performance threshold to trigger a script whild device CPU or Memory high.
    There is a default threshold template called "CPU Utilization" and "Memory Utilization".
    After I choose either one, there should be one or two variable name in drop down list.
    But I only see "Select MIB Variable" in the list.
    I try to create a template with exact the same variable but still got nothing in the list.
    The strange thing is that no all the default template has this problem.
    I can see variable name under some template like "Device Availability" or "Port Availability"
    And this is not browser problem because I try both IE and Firefox.
    Any one how to solve this?

    Thanks for your advice.
    Now all my devices are connected in Layer View [Devices View], but User Tracking still not shows me informations from several switches about hosts. Its works like randomizer. Now 5 devices form User Tracking  don't show me informations.[WS3550 2 devices and 2  WS-C2960S-48LPS-L]. In lists devices Acquisition Action i check acquisition for this 5 devices. After that acquisition complete, but User Tracking still empty ( all ports on this devices are active).
    SNMP, Credentials all is good.
    I try resolve this problem many days, but without results. Its semmes like a bug.

  • How do I get the location bar drop-down list to show the most recently visited page at the top? I have no idea how it's deciding what to display.

    In IE when you show the drop-down list from the location bar, it show you all of your most recently visited pages in descending order with the most recent at the top. Firefox is showing me a list that I have no idea where it's getting the pages from or how it's ordering them. It doesn't update the pages or the order when I go to a new page. I have recently switched from IE to Firefox and cannot figure out how to get Firefox to do this; very annoying.

    That drop down list doesn't show recently visited pages, but shows list list of most visited sites sorted by what the Mozilla devs call frecency (frequency and recency) and is based on bonus points. It is not possible to have much influence on what shows on that list.
    If you want a list of recently visited sites then you can use a smart bookmark e.g. on the Bookmarks Toolbar with the location set to this smart folder.<br />
    Name: <b>Recently Visited</b><br />
    Location: <b>place:queryType=0&sort=4&maxResults=30</b><br />
    You need to close and restart Firefox to make that folder work as intended.

  • Changing Date Format in Dashboard prompt drop down list

    Hi friends, my dashboard shows a drop down list for dates , which are in format "7/1/2008 12:00:00 AM".
    This is defined datetime datatype in sql server. Is there any way to change the date format in dashboard prompt to just "7/1/2008" without doing it in database side.
    Appreciate your help.
    Thanks and regards

    Hi... Toony
    In Dashboard Prompt, you have option to select i.e. show SQL,
    there you write the Logical SQL or Advanced SQL: <em>select cast("timestampCOLUMN" as date) from "PresentationLayerName"</em>
    this is simple way without changing anything in rpd side...
    And if you want the timestamp column somewhere in some reports you can use that column directly.
    If you don't want you need to cast it as DATE.
    If your question was answered then put it as answered and mark it as correct... ;)

  • Help with Hidden Drop Down Lists in RBList subforms

    I have created a form that contains 3 isolated Radio Button lists, each with hidden subforms that are unique per each button.
    Two of my RBLists and subforms work perfectly, showing hidden Drop Down List options and other fields as they should when a button is selected.
    However, RBList3 presents the Drop Down lists as user entry fields only. Each hidden subform in RBList3 contains one drop down menu and one text box for instructions.
    I've used the same javascript to hide/show hidden fields when buttons are selected. All settings seem to match up. Here is a sample of my code:
    if(RBList3.F.rawValue != 2) 
        this.presence = "hidden";
        newsubform.presence = "hidden";
    else if(RBList3.F.rawValue == 2)
        this.presence = "visible";
        newsubform.presence = "hidden";
    Does anyone have any suggestions for how to make my Drop Down Lists in RBList3 show as functional Drop lists?
    I have attached the form for reference.

    Hi Paul,
    I see that the code works for radio button G selection in the change event. However, what I really need to happen...is for the RBList options to be present on the screen without any subform data until the user clicks button E, F or G. If either E or F is selected, then the drop list and the text box would pop up as you currently have them placed on screen.
    My original problem was that the EdgeDropDown2 list loses its functionality when wrapped in a hidden subform (i.e. SubformE or SubformF).
    Can I add code to the change event to make EdgeDropDown2 and PanzDrawTxt appear only if either E or F are chosen. The code you wrote below works only for G selection.
    if(this.rawValue != 3)
        EdgeDropDown2.presence = "visible";
        PanzDrawTxt.presence = "visible";
        EdgePanelChkBxTxt.presence = "hidden";
    }else {
        PanzDrawTxt.presence = "hidden";
        EdgeDropDown2.presence = "hidden";
        EdgePanelChkBxTxt.presence = "visible";   

  • Dates Drop Down List

    I have a table which stores a list of valid dates. These dates are then foreign keyed to another table date column
    I have a VO which selects a date field. In the attribute I have set it as Simpale Date and specified dd-MMM-yyy format. The default date format in the Application Definition file is dd-MMM-yyyy. I have created a domain for this VO and then set the Item to drop down list in the group. WHen I try and access the page with the dropdown list I get the following error :
    javax.faces.convert.ConverterException: Not a date
    Now, to confuse matters, If I set the date format in the VO to dd-MM-yyyy it runs the page and shows the drop down list in dd-MM-yyyy format. However, when I try and save it then throws an error for the FK saying the parent does not exist. I am assuming that this is because it is expecting dd-MMM-yyyy.
    Help please.
    Rich

    Rich,
    You could turn on ADF BC diagnostics (-Djbo.debugoutput=true) to see which date value it is trying to insert. Or You could also temporarily disable the foreign key constraint to see which value gets inserted.
    You can then compare the two values, it might be related to the "hidden" time component stored against date columns.
    In general, we recommend usage of meaningless Primary keys. So, if you have control over the DB Design, you might want to introduce an ID column in the dates lookup table to avoid the issue all together.

  • Editing drop down list

    How can I show the drop down list box as empty or blank when not used as I would like to use the drop down list on a form that has multiple lines for name entries but sometimes I will not populate all of the available lines?
    I am using livecycle designer 8.0 under the vista operating system on a hp 9000 laptop with 2GB of memory.

  • Itunes not showing elements 11 drop down list of albums and won't sync, says ïtunes cannot sync, required folder cannot be found. ï have tried re installing both but no success. pls help!!!

    Hi, Itunes won't sync my photos to ipad from elements 11. itunes doesn't show drop down list of albums and says Ipad "......cannot be synced, required folder cannot be found" i have tried re installing both programs but no luck. pls help!!!

    I managed to finally fix the problem in a relatively painless way. It turned out that the problem wasn't on my phone, the problem was with iTunes. I completely uninstalled iTunes from my PC and then reinstalled it and everything was fine.
    In order to completely uninstall iTunes, I did two things:
    Used RevoUninstaller to uninstall iTunes. This cleans out a bunch of extra things that the normal iTunes uninstaller misses.
    Searched for any iTunes folders/files on my computer (using the freeware utility called Everything) and deleted them manually.
    I hope that works for you.

  • How to show "ALL" Values by default in Page Drop-Down Lists in Pivot Tables

    Hi Everyone,
    Iam stuck with 1 problem please can any 1 help me if u know the solution.
    Here is my problem:
    How to show "ALL" Values by default in Page Drop-Down Lists in Oracle BI Pivot Tables?
    For example, if you place Region in the pages area, a Region drop-down list allows the user to select a particular region, and see the data for only that region, rather than seeing all the Regions,But by default its not showing "ALL" option in the drop down list ,rather than doing that its showing result for only 1 region by default.
    And an other problem with this pages area is, if we palce the multiple attributes in the Pages area in the pivot table, the (Fields)result is showing in vertically, the attributes 1 by 1(Every attribute in a new line) ,rather than showing like that, is there any way to show the results in horizantally?(We want to have it as a seperate drop drown list for every field horizantally not as a concatenated list).

    Thanks Nikhil. But I am fetching the values from the LOVCache.java.
    I am using <af:selectManyChoice>. Is there any way I can use LOVCache.java value for selecting default values instead of hard coding?
    I mean to say can I write
    unselectedLabel="#{LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList.anyValue}"
    where LOVCache.entityTypeSelectionList is used to populate the drop down box.
    Regards,
    Aseet

  • TS3276 the images (attachments) are automatically resized (smaller) when I send them to a customer. My email screen does not show a drop down menu box where you can leave as actual size. Is there a setting elsewhere that can be set.

    Any suggestions on problem I have. I receive images, say a file that is 3 mgs through email on Safari mail and when I try to resend it or forward it or any other larger file, when it sends the file is reduced by about 1/3. My screen does not show and drop down menu with a feature to keep actual size or reduce that is suggested when I looked up solutions to the problem.  I can't find a setting anywhere in mail that I can change to make sure my files are kept at actual size. I figure a setting got changed -don't know how - but it happened about a month ago. Caused problems as I work in graphics can't send files to clients as they come out too small. Any suggestions on how to fix.
    Thanks

    What email program are you using? And what do you mean by "Safari mail"?

  • Show Drop Down List

    CA Forum: General
    We have a report that prints data from a Sales Ticket table. The report has one parameter which is a Shift Start Date/Time. The Shift Start Date/Time is a field in the Sales Ticket table that goes with each Sales Ticket and also a field in a Shift table. When operator closes a shift, the Sales Tickets are updated with the Shift Start Date/Time and a new entry is made into the Shift table.
    Now we need to run a sales ticket report that uses the Sales Ticket table and selects by Shift Start Date/time. Is there a way in the parameter entry screen to show user a drop down of all valid Shift Start Date/Time entries from the Shift table, this is the only way user will know what valid shift parameters exist. Now they have to run a shift report, pick the shift from the report and manually key that in as a parameter.
    Thank you.

    We are on CR XI product version 11.5.8.826.
    I was reading about using a Command Object (connect to your datasource and entering sql command). If this is correct how could I get the result to show in a drop down list and have user select a line and use this as a parameter for creating the report?
    Could you pleaseoint me in a direction where I might pick up some tutorial on how to do this. Thank you.

    Look in your Contacts App and see if the unwanted address is entered there.  If it is, you can delete it there.

  • Mobile Me Alias not showing up in "From" drop down list in Mac Mail

    I have a couple of older .mac/Mobile Me email aliases that used to show up as either [email protected] or [email protected] in Mac Mail in the From drop down list, as recently as yesterday. Today, all I can see for any alias that has both the .mac and @me options due to their age, is the @mac.com version. I want to use the @me version of the alias, but this option no longer shows in the list. Newer Mobile Me aliases only have the @me.com address and they show up fine. One last point. If I use the Mobile Me web mail app, I can see both the @mac.com and the @me.com choices in the From drop down list, so it's working as it should.
    Mail isn't working correctly, but since I've not updated the Mail app recently, I suspect Mobile Me isn't sending both versions of the aliases over when the list is refreshed.
    Any suggestions? Thanks!

    It started about a week ago. The "From" drop-dow is now missing in Mac Mail. It should appear beneath the subject line. I was working with MobileMe Chat support for about 3 hours. They cannot solve the problem and have now escalated it to the "Senior Advisor Team."
