Tab Navigation List - Current Tab

I'm using a tab navigation list to hide/show regions on a page. When the page displays, all the tabs are showing the same way and there is no way to know what tab is current. Is there a way to change the display of tab if it is current?

Hi,
Edit the List you are using in the Tabbed Navigation.
Under "Current List Entry" select "Colon Delimited Page list" and enter the page(s) in "List Entry Current for Condition" for each of the list entries.

Substitution syntax in tabbed navigation list. Smart or Lucky?

I've got a tabbed navigation list that I use on two separate pages.
The list entry points back to the current page but sets a page item value based on the list item value.
So this tabbed list might have items labeled E-mail, Phone, Address. When you click one of the list tab items it submits to the current page, sets a hidden field to EMAIL,PHONE, or ADDRESS. That hidden field controls which email,phone, or address region is displayed.
OK easy enough. Except that I use the same list on multiple pages. Rather than create a list for each page, I made it more generic...
So I set the item target as follows:
Target type: Page in this application
Page: &APP_PAGE_ID.
Set these items: P&APP_PAGE_ID._ALIAS_REGION
With these values: ADDRESS
Notice that I've got substitution type syntax for the target page and the NAME of the item whose value I want to set. For example if the list is rendered on page 2 the target page becomes 2 and the item name becomes P2_ALIAS_REGION. On page 7, they are 7 and P7_ALIAS_REGION respectively.
I also use this same syntax in the "Current List Entry" with a query like:
select 1 from dual where :P&APP_PAGE_ID._ALIAS_REGION = 'ACTIVE'
Now, I thought I was being clever in doing this, since it lets me use the same list on several similar pages. However the Apex Essentials Advisor is complaining about my syntax, and as awesome as that tool is, it got me thinking that I might be too clever for my own good.
Is it valid to use this substitution syntax in this context? I mean it works, but is it supposed to work this way? If this is by happy coincidence then Apex developers please don't change how this works. If this is by design, then you guys/girls are awesome!

Is it valid to use this substitution syntax in this context?Yes.
I mean it works, but is it supposed to work this way?Yes.
If this is by happy coincidence then Apex developers please don't change how this works.It is very unlikely that we would change any of the core substitution logic in ways that adversely affect behavior like this.
If this is by design, then you guys/girls are awesome!Aw, shucks.

Tabbed Navigation List

Hi ,
I am using Tabbed Navigation List in my application. The color of Labels on the tabs are misleading as it appears to be greyed out but is not. And also while we click on any of these tabs there is no indication of which tab is current. Is there a way I can change the color of the label on these tabs at runtime or design time. And Secondly is there a way I can dynamically change the label color to some green or red or even change the background of the tab to indicate to the user that this tab is current.
Any help in these regard is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
sukarna

Sukarna,
The short answer is yes - all of this is possible. However, the exact implementation will very depending on a number of factors, most notably the theme/template your using. Can you put an example on apex.oracle.com? We'll need the workspace/username/password. You can create a new user account for this purpose.

#TAB_LINK# value not set for tabbed navigation list

I'm a big supporter of searching the threads for an answer before posting. My apologies if I've overlooked this in the threads.
Like many others, I'm leveraging lists to mimic third level tab functionality. I'm trying to use the tabbed navigation list template. My targets for the list entries are pages within the application. When clicking the links however, #TAB_LINK# is not being interpreted within the link URL. #TAB_LINK# is simply appended to the end of the URL instead of being replaced with the actual link value, for example I would expect to see a typical htmldb page link with the target page value.
As a result, no navigation occurs to the target page. If I change the list template to horitzontal link list, the links function as expected, however I prefer the look of the tabbed navigation template.
Any suggestions?
David

I took a hint from my own post and checked the template that was working for me and noticed that the horizontal list template uses #LINK# instead of #TAB_LINK#.
I altered the tabbed navigation list template, replacing #TAB_LINK# with #LINK#, and now the tab links function as expected. I'm not sure if this fix will bite me later, or if this is a known issue. If there is a "proper" solution out there, I would still like to hear it. For now I'll assume my fix is a hack.
Thanks,
David

Change of Color on Tabbed Navigation List (Apex 4.1)

Dear Friends,
I am using apex 4.1
I have a list on page 0 which is "Tabbed Navigation List" and there are three pages running on it.
I want to change the color of the button when i click on the specific button.
Can any1 help me in this regards. I will be obliged.

Not clear enough.
Different Themes render Tabbed navigation lists in different way. Take a look at the Tabbed Navigation List template on Page 0. You will need to customize this template to achieve what you want.

Tabbed Navigation List Session State

I converted regular tabs to a tabbed navigation list because the user wanted the tabs on the left side, on a region, not on the top of a page. Now when I navigate between pages using the tabbed navigation list the session state is not saved. For example: the user changes something in a field on page 1 without submitting the change, navigates to page 2, then back to page 1; the change they made on page 1 is gone. How can I prevent this from happening?
I've checked all of the branches and navigation list targets to make sure I'm not clearing the session state.
Thanks, Elizabeth

First, I added Personal_Page under Action/Request.No, that sets the request value in the branch URL.
so I added Personal_Page in Expression1 under Conditions and set the Condition Type to Request=Expression1That will work. Maybe you have a branch that fires before it so it never evaluated this branch. Anyway, my suggestion was to use an application process, not branches. The firing point of the process should be after-submit, before computations and validations. The process would contain a block like:
declare l_page varchar2(30);
begin
case
    when :request = 'Personal_Page' then
      l_page := '3';
    when :request = 'some other value' then
      l_page := '4';
    -- etc.
end case;
apex_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true;
owa_util.redirect_url('f?p=' || :APP_ID || ':' || l_page || ':' || :APP_SESSION);
end;Scott

Working with "tabbed navigation list" widths

I have created a list of type "tabbed navigation list" and added it to a page. I modified the "template" for the page adding a bottom border to the table for the tabbed navigation list.
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=36420:1:
How would I control the width of this tab navigation list?
I would like to make the width extend to 100% of the page, however, I'm unable to control the width either by setting the region width or the template width for the tabbed navigation list.
Thank you!

Hello,
Your Region Template is a table and collapsing down. Remove the region template or change it so the table has width="100%" or change it to Report Region 100% Template if your using one of the builtin themes.

Hi,
When posting code on the forum, put {noformat}{noformat} (with the curly brackets and the word code in lowercase) above and below your code like this...
{noformat}{noformat}
SELECT *
FROM emp
{noformat}{noformat}
It will then appear like this, preserving formatting...SELECT *
FROM emp
I can't see the HTML that you've posted unless you do this.

How to open "Open All in Tabs" in the current tab as it did before Firefox 8.x

When click on "Open All in Tabs" on a grouped bookmark item Firefox use to open the group of tabs from the current tab onwards. Since version 7.x it does it by opening a new tab first and leave the current tab unchanged. Is there a setting to be changed to have the same behavior as before? It seems not logical because when I click on a single bookmark item it opens in the current tab.

Yep. Those are all correct.
Here's what I've learned from another site, Sandboxie. And this is why I hate upgrading FF and other s/w if I don't absolutely have to. They always changes stuff:
I believe this link discusses the related change in Firefox:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=491947
Before version 14, Firefox used a mechanism called DDE to send links to an open instance of itself. Sandboxie includes support for this kind of one-way DDE communication, specifically to support that use case, which has now stopped working.
'''It stopped working because Firefox 14 no longer uses DDE, as described in that Firefox bugzilla page.'''
I have to take back my earlier post and say that there is nothing I can do about this in Sandboxie and that some kind of workaround will have to be the long term solution.
Guest10's solution works well, but I can't add it as a default in Sandboxie because it means that if you have an open Firefox outside the sandbox and you run Firefox in the sandbox, then a new window (or tab) opens in Firefox outside the sandbox, and nothing runs in the sandbox. I feel this kind of behavior is too confusing to offer as part of Sandboxie.
It might be possible to restore the old functionality in Firefox 14. The bugzilla page says something about Firefox 14 trying to remove all DDE functionality, but the following still seems to work for me. Download the following .reg file to your desktop (outside the sandbox), then double-click it, and confirm entering it into the registry.
See http://sandboxie.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=13330 for a link and a reg file.

Two problems with tabs: (1) no "x" to close; and (2) unable to open new tab adjacent to current tab

I don't know if this is a change in how Firefox works, a glitch in my download, or an improper setting, but my tabs don't have an "x" on them to close.
Also, tabs now open at the end of the list rather than in the adjacent window as the did recently. Is there any way to switch this back so new tabs open adjacent to the current tab?

You can reset the tab prefs on the about:config page in case they have been changed.
* browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent
* browser.tabs.closeButtons
If you want a close X on the first tab if only one tab is open then set browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resetting_preferences
If you have tab related extensions then check their settings (Options).

New tab next to current tab

ok so... why has the simple process of browsing the web been made so damn annoying ?
i want to open a new tab next to a current tab and what do i have to do for this to happen ?
1) i see if there is any option for it in the options - there is nothing
2) i type in about:config and see if can find anything there - nothing
3) i go to google and search for some answers - nothing (the thread is probably closed)
4) i register an account to post a replay - nothing (the thread is closed - http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/926633)
5) i have to look for a place where i could post a new thread and ask why is that thread closed where i could easilly have posted my question
6) so - how do i make it happen without installing any special addons and why has this process been made so damn annoying ?
/firefox 33.1, win7
(i already installed that addon and now also updated ff, so lets see if anything changes)

##Support threads that are over 6 months old are automatically locked by the forum software, as with that thread which was started in May of 2012. As of very recently, Google shouldn't be indexing locked support threads here any more. I don't know how quickly that takes effect. Sorry for your inconvenience.##
my only inconvenience is the fact that you are trying to remove the whole point of having a google search engine and the freedom of the internet in the first place - why are the threads closing automatically without any automatic option to re-open them to add to a discussion on the free interwebz ?
tabmix plus is even more annoying because it wants to make the tabs look pointlessly "fancy" and you need to go through 15 pages of options to get the normal visual back (if its even possible)
i did set that preference to false, but it did not change anything (it was true before)

New Tab opens in current tab

Hi there,
I have Safari set to open new tabs with "Top Sites". Whenever I try to open a new tab (CMD-T, click on the + symbol in the tab bar or the toolbar, double click next to open tabs), instead of Safari opening a new Tab with the Top Sites showing, it opens an empty page and loads the Top Sites in the current tab!
This means I lose everything that was on that tab!! Unacceptable.
Any ideas?

Go to ~ / Library / Safari.
Move the TopSites.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac.
~ (Tilde) character represents the Home folder.

When I right click and "Search Google for ____" the resulting google search comes up in a new tab AND the current tab

Right click google search used to open only in a new tab. Now it opens in a new tab and after a moment, the current tab also.
Any ideas?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Open All in Tabs, opens bookmarks in new tabs and leaves current tab open instead of changing to the first bookmark

Whenever I click the "Open All in Tabs", it opens all the bookmarks in new tabs instead of opening the first bookmark in the current tab and the rest in new tabs.
happens on all 3 of my computers running 8.0a1

This isn't possible anymore, due to the fact that this Boolean entry has been removed: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395024
 
In my Firefox Aurora 8.0a2 (Windows 7, but Ubuntu 10.10 as well) the current behaviour could be described as follows: 
Open all in tabs
<ul><li>Normal click: opens all in new tabs, changes focus to first one opened;</li>
<li>Ctrl + click: opens all in new tabs, changes focus to first one opened;</li>
<li>Shift + click: opens all in new window, changes focus to first one (tab) opened;</li>
<li>Ctrl + Shift + click: opens all in new tabs, doesn't change focus.</li></ul>
 
Whereas I would like it to be as follows: 
Open all in tabs
<ul><li>Normal click: opens all but the first one (which overwrites current) in new tabs, doesn't change focus (due to the fact that the first item is already in the focused tab); in short, it changes the currently focused to the first item from the folder and appends its' rest on the right side;</li>
<li>Ctrl + click: opens all in new tabs, doesn't change focus;</li>
<li>Shift + click: opens all in new window, changes focus to the first one (tab) opened;</li>
<li>Ctrl + Shift: opens all in new tabs, doesn't change focus.</li></ul>
 
This behaviour was present a few versions ago and only lately have I looked for the solution to this. I encountered many bug files regarding this topic with people speaking against Firefox's behaviour that would close existing tabs when opening all in new tabs (from a folder), which possibly influenced the change that I would like to be reverted.
 
Please let me know if it is possible to attain the behaviour I described.
