Leonard,
This is something I've wanted for a long time and am very surprised to hear that it's possible with Reader since they took it away long ago. Can you explain exactly which usage right is required for this? How about a sample file that demonstrates it works in Reader? In other words, I'd have to see it to believe it.

How to create a browse button in applet

Hi All,
Need another help...
I want create a Browse Button in java applet frame such that if I click on that button, I can pick a file from any folder of my machine.
Is there any way to do so? If yes, can you give me a small code as example.
Regards,
Uji

Hey Ujjal,
I know it's late and I don't know if you're still having this issue but maybe this can be helpful to the next person who has it. As was already said, I think you should probably consider doing this project as an application rather than an applet to avoid file access permission problems. That said, here's how I would do it (since no one has answered your question directly):
First this class should extend JFrame or some other window class
Next create a file object (it's static so it can be accessed by anonymous classes later):
private static File myFile = null;Then, inside the appropriate method (probably something like init() or main()), make the button and give it some functionality with an anonymous MouseListener:
JButton myBrowseButton = new JButton("Browse");
myBrowseButton.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter(){
    // an anonymous MouseAdapter
    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e){
        ...now in here you'll want the code to make a JFileChooser in a dialog window
        // create a dialog window
        final JDialog myChooserDialog = new JDialog();
        myChooserDialog.setTitle("Browse");
        // an anonymous JFileChooser
        JFileChooser myFileChooser = new JFileChooser(PATH){
            // an anonymous instantiator to set the text of the select button
            { setApproveButtonText("Select"); }
            // what to do when the user clicks select
            public void approveSelection(){
                // you might want to make sure the selected file is valid before this step
                myFile = getSelectedFile();
                myChooserDialog.dispose();
            // what to do if the user clicks cancel
            public void cancelSelection(){ myChooserDialog.dispose(); }
        ...add the chooser to the dialog and make it visible
        myChooserDialog.add(myFileChooser);
        myChooserDialog.setVisible(true);
        myChooserDialog.pack();
});Now add the button to the frame and make it visible
add(myBrowseButton);
setVisible(true);
pack();A few notes:
1) Replace the word PATH with the path to the directory you want to browse (e.g. "." the current working directory)
2) Make sure all of that code except for private static File myFile = null; goes into a method and isn't just floating around
3) If ANY of this was confusing then go D.A.F.T (Do A Fecking Tutorial!)
good luck!

Create Browse button

Hello Friends
I want to create a browse button in a Frame using Swing component...
Is it possible if yes then how
please solve my problem.
Nitin

Hello user626298
Pls att. the 'd2kwutil' library to ur form..
Then, look up for the word function Win_Api_Dialog in the help with
The Win_Api_Dialog.Open_File function
Syntax
FUNCTION Win_Api_Dialog.Open_File
(Title          IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'Open File',
StartDirectory     IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT '$WINDIR$',
FileFilter          IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'All files(*.*)|*.*|',
Modal          IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE,
AdvancedFlags     IN PLS_INTEGER DEFAULT WIN_API.OFN_FLAG_DEFAULT,
RaiseExceptions     IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE);
open a window to select a file which will return a varchar2 with the path of the file,
then ur whatever.. will be able to diaplay it in your forms field.
===================================================
But i prefere calling the built-in function when using Forms 6i; GET_FILE_NAME
Example:
DECLARE
filename VARCHAR2(256)
BEGIN
filename := GET_FILE_NAME(File_Filter=> 'TIFF Files (*.tif)|*.tif|');
READ_IMAGE_FILE(filename, 'TIFF', 'block5.imagefld);
END;

save this then run java file. can import throug read file but not browsing any ideas and also haveing problems with txt filter. thank you

Take a look at this little example. It shows you how to use JFileChoosers, how to set the text in a JTextArea, how to add accelerators to JMenuItems and how to read a file in and display it in a JTextArea. It also shows the use of a KeyListener and a KeyAdapter. Some of the real fundamentals of what you are trying to do here.
In the future, be sure that you post swing-related questions in the swing forum.

How to Create a Back button in Flash

Hi all,
I need to create a back button for my flash app. It doesn't
need to be connected with Browser. It just need be able to remember
what frame they were viewing, and bring them back.
Is there any event I can use for this? I made an variable
called "visited:Number" and change it on every frame, but this
won't work. Once the user enters a new frame, the original visited
number is replaced by current already. I don't know how to hold
that number, before they leave the current frame.
Can anybody give me little clue/direction please?
Thank you...

Hi
I believe that you should look at the Forms functionality for UCM . Under Content Management - Web Form Editor will show up the editor where in you can add buttons and attach functionalities to it . With UCM 11g this is not available thus you might need to use AJAX to build the requirement .
Thanks

After I have migrated a 'master' profile into another, the browse button (for a download location) in Options, General doesn't work anymore. How can I fix this?

Hi Supporters,
I've been struggling with this some time (downloading / saving problems) and tried all kinds of variations. But I'll keep it simple for now.
As a test .. I've just created a fresh firefox profile. Checked out if could change the download location, through the Browse button, and indeed that worked. I got an explorer dialog to choose a folder.
Normally I would do the options, manage the search engines, do some layout stuff etc etc in order to get some 'baseline / master' profile I can evolve further into other more extended profiles. So you see this master profile will get copied into another one.
But, having copied that fresh profile (having done nothing yet) into another seems to disable choosing another download folder. The Browse button in Options > General does not work anymore.
There's more. If I browse to, say, C:\ as default download location but then enable 'ask me where to save ..' in the fresh profile and then copy this profile to another one .. if I then want to change the download location (which shows C:) it jumps to Desktop and again the Browse button won't work.
This is driving me mad. Any ideas? Sorry for the long story, hope it helps.

Hi guys,
@cor-el: getting rid of not needed parts is what I always do. Besides prefs and localstore, only the search-metadata and permissions / signons are passed along. Oh, forgot to mention the mimetypes.
No, my point is why is FF looking for those folders when there's no mentioning of these to be found in my options? Not even in de about:config ... When I state C:\ as my downloads location it's absurd to check any other folder first, which FF seems to do before giving me an explorer window showing .. C:\ as a starting point. Like my unrestricted laptop does.
@jscher2000: Even if there are pointers to those default folders, FF should not be checking those. When I state C: I mean C: (see my answer above).
No, I'm convinced this is a bug unless someone knows a way to stop that folder checking. And to be honest, the not working Browse button is the least of my problems (I use: ask everytime where). No it's the saving that is the problem. But I guess the underlying problem is the same. Saving / downloading, what's in a name ..
Guys, thanks for your help ! I can't fix a bug so I'm going to let it be. I'll rebuild my master and will keep checking of saving a website becomes a problem somewhere. Mind you, the solutions offered in kb.mozillazine.org/Unable_to_save_or_download_files didn't work.
Oh well, I'll keep my fingers crossed :)

"Browse"button couldn't change to "Burn Disc"

itunes 7,Disc Driver DVD+-RW connected via usb and and recognized by itunes,windows XP Pro, mp3 songs authorized,creat playlist in itunes.
after inserting a blank disc, itunes shows me to choose the songs in playlist and to burn. But "Browse"button couldn't change to "Burn Disc", failed.

I have a similar issue. For me at least, it seems that I cannot move songs from my ipod into new playlists (and therefore the browse button does not change to burn). This is a recent development, in the last couple of days. I.e., I was previously able to create a new playlist and move songs into it for burning to CD. So, this does not pose any answer to your question, I just have a similar issue: the burn. Does anyone know of a solution?

How to disable File Browse... item including browse button

Hi All,
How to disable file File Browse... item including browse button based on Apex Item Value.
thanks,
nr

Hello Trent,
>> Does the read only attribute in 4.0+ of the page item not suffice?
It all depends on your actual scenario.
If the show/hide condition is known pre-rendering, you can use the Application Builder ReadOnly attribute. In this case, the APEX engine actually creates a simple text display so the input field and the browse button will not be displayed at all (and not just grayed out). However, if you need to toggle the status of the item, like in the example, or the status depends on a user input, using the disable attribute is much simpler (If you start with ReadOnly item, you will have to create the file browse item yourself, using JavaScript, or submit/re-direct the page so it will be rendered with the file browse item).

Arie.

How to "select a Directory" from Browse button

Hi all,
I am new to Swing API.
All I want is to create a TextField and a Browse button.
User has to select a directory from Browse button and upon selection of the directory and clicking OK, the directory should be placed into TextField.
Hope this is not new............
Help me do this.....
Thanks in advance

Take a look at JFileChooser. You can build a JFileChooser instance that will allow the user to select DIRECTORIES_ONLY (hint, take a look at the constants), it should do the trick ... (even though it's pretty ugly alright)
