Translating close button in help popup?

Hi all,
I've got some labels showing a popup with the help text when clicked on it.
This work's fine but I'm dutch and the button in the popup shows 'Close' so I want it to be 'Sluiten'.
I've found 1 topic on the forum, and google wasn't helpfull at all, saying that the js function that creates the popup is:
function popupFieldHelp(curentItemId, sessionId, closeButtonName)The last parameter seemed exactly what I needed. To test, I opened my page in firefox, navigated to a label with firebug and entered a string in the third parameter.
After clicking on the label the popup opened and the URL was changed ('&p_close_button_name=Sluiten' was added) but nothing happened....
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong??
Thanks!
Kind regards,
Diana
p.s. I've got Application Express 3.2.1.00.10 and tried the URL in FF3.5.5 and IE6

Alrighty, already found a solution:
translating 'WWV_FLOW_UTILITIES.CLOSE' also worked.. (Shared Components>Text Messages>Create)
sorry.
Diana

Can I add a Close button to a popup window?

My RoboHelp 10 project has nested popup windows (that is, I can open a popup window within a popup window within a popup window). The problem is, when I close the popup window at the lowest level, all of them close simultaneously. This is not good for navigation, particularly if the user is following instructions in the popup window and needs to go back up one popup window level.
Is there a method by which I can close each individual popup window, for example, by adding a Close button to them? In other words, can I change the format of the popup windows?
Your help will be much appreciated in finding a solution to this problem because it is fundamental to the way we want our Help to function. If a solution can not be found, we may have to change to another product to produce our Help.

Hi,
You can create a close buton by creating a link as follows with the following address:
javascript:self.close()
But I'm not sure whether this will work correctly with RoboHelp generated popups.
Another question: why would you want multiple popups? Wouldn't it be better to create a popup that can tthen redirect to another topic? Having lots of windows wil become very confusing very fast.

OVS valuehelp close button

Hello!
Is it possible to add a close button to the popup window that appears for the OVS value help? I think its a big usability issue in case I don't want to select an entry from the query result table and just want the window to disappear.
By what means can the OVS popup be adapted for our customers needs?
Thanks in advance and best regards
Reinhard

Reinhard,
Sadly, it is impossible in current version of WD for Java. This issue was discussed previously, still this functionality is not available, I've added an entry to enhancements wish list on this forum (see Re: POLL: Web Dynpro UI elements - enhancement proposals last item)
For now you the only option is to explain customers that they have to click outside OVS pop-over.

Comments with close buttons?

I wish to show in a PDF that a particular paragraph has been updated. Can I add a comment in Acrobat that has a close button, like a popup window in a browser? Ideally, the person viewing the document in Reader would read the window and then close it to read the updated text. The Comments and Sticky Notes features seem geared more for Acrobat users during the drafting of a document.

Hi Alex
Is it possible you are overthinking it?
Try configuring the end action of your project to Close the
project. Then insert a Button or Click Box object that simply jumps
to the last slide. What happens is that your user clicks the
button, the last slide appears and the project closes (if it can).
Cheers... Rick

How to handle the "cancel" button and "close" icon of a popup ?

Hi,
I have a popup with "cancel button" and "close icon"(on the top right corner of the popup), I want the same operations to be performed on clicking of any of these two components.
Is there a way to handle such situation ?
I read about 2 cases to look into this but they didn't work too well for me.
1. I read about the "popcancellistener" but that listener is called whenever the popup closes, so suppose I have an "ok button" on the popup to create a record, after the record is created, the popup closes and goes into the "popcancellistener", now the question is "how do we know if it came there because of the 'ok button' or 'some other event'".
2. I even checked the "DialogListener", now I'm able to distinguish between the 'OK' and 'CANCEL' button in the dialoglistener using the "Dialog.Outcome.ok/cancel", but when a user clicks on the close icon, we do not enter the "DialogListener" at all, so in this case "how do we handle the close icon click event"
Do let me know if you need any more information from my side.
Thanks for the help in advance.

The following mechanism responds to any of the following events: <Esc> key, Close icon ('x'), Cancel button
JavaScript part:
function popupClosedListener(event){
              var source = event.getSource();
              var popupId = source.getClientId();
              var params = {};
              params['popupId'] = popupId;
              var type = "serverPopupClosed";
              var immediate = true;
              AdfCustomEvent.queue(source, type, params, immediate);
}JSF part:
         <af:popup ....>
              <af:clientListener method="popupClosedListener"
                                       type="popupClosed"/>
              <af:serverListener type="serverPopupClosed"
                                      method="#{myBean.serverPopupClosedMetod}"/>
        </af:popup>Finally, Java part:
public void serverPopupClosedMetod(ClientEvent event){
}

Help popup on click of a button

Hi All,
The requirement is on click of a URL link on the adobe form, a popup should come which will have help text
regarding certain field. Currently this is done by creating webdynpro application which will have the help text.
On click of URL, the page will be opened.
The question is Is there a better option to do the same.
Thanks,
Aravind

Hello,
I have created a demo regarding this topic for a friend. What I did was:
- create a subform which will display the text
- the subform is hidden
- on click on the help button, the subform is made visible, of course with the "close" button at the bottom
- you only need to think a little about how to maintain the texts/ how to pass the texts into the form
This solution of course works offline, so the use is not limited to WD use.

Popup window - Close button

Hi,
We have a requirement to disable/hide the standard close button present in the Internet Explorer while opening a popup window (the X icon present in the top right section of internet explorer window) . Any pointers on how to achieve this would be really helpful.
Thanks in advance.

I don't think it is possible to hide X of any window, as it is default feature of explorer by MSDN.

Modify the title and the label of buton close of the help window popup

Hello everybody.
I am looking for a way to modify the title of window popup and the label of the close buton of the popup window help text.
In my item template item, I am using the following in order to pop the window help :
<a href="javascript:popupFieldHelp'#CURRENT_ITEM_ID#','&SESSION.')
Thanks for any help.
Lila

Hi lila
Let us say that you have page 1 on which you want to show help for some item....
So in Post Element Text you can put an image tag ( for help) which onclick will call the function ...
function helpWin()
var URL = 'f?p=999:2:&SESSION::NO::';
w = open(URL,1,"Scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=600,height=600");
if (w.opener == null)
w.opener = self;
w.focus();
so page 2 is your customisable help page...in which you can put page title ,customise button etc....
hope it helps
thanks

Blank composition, close button malfunctions... help

I made a blank composition, applied close button option, the button stays on page after rolling my mouse over the close button, then the close button stays on page... help

Thank you for pointing that out Stephen.
I am able to replicate that in case where the Hide Target is set to "On Rollout" or "On Rollout of Trigger and Target".
However, if you are using one of those options for Hide Target setting, I wonder why you need the close button (could you elaborate on your specific requirement so I may help better?).
Cheers,

Popup Close Button

Hi,
I'd like to show a popup with a close button in its title bar. I'm using this code to create the popup:
       IWDWindow popup = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createModalWindow(
                 wdComponentAPI.getComponentInfo().findInWindows(
                 "InvoiceDetailsWindow"));
       popup.setTitle("Title");
       popup.setWindowPosition(WDWindowPos.CENTER);
but only the maximize button in shown.
Thank you,
Pietro

For release >= 7.11 see this [tutorial|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/70c5186d-2d08-2d10-a6b6-818e832d05d8].

Firefox frequently freezes. I can't click on anything (tabs, menu buttons, bookmarks, etc.) The only button that works is the upper right close button which when clicked will ask me if I want to "save & quit." Then I have to restart. Help fixing this?

Frequently when I use Firefox it will all of a sudden freeze. It no longer will accept any user input from the keyboard or mouse. I cannot click on any of the open tabbed pages I have or on my bookmarks or any of the menu buttons. Nothing works. When it happens if it is loading a page it will just freeze in the middle of loading it. I've tried to see if the freezes are caused when it loads certain types of content (java, flash, etc...) but there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when it happens or with what types of pages. I cannot find a pattern. The ONLY button that works is the close button in the upper right hand corner (X). I can click on that and then Firefox will prompt me with it's regular message asking me if I want to save and quit, quit, or cancel. I'll hit save and quit and then reopen Firefox. It opens my tabs and if I was in the middle of a post it generally will still remember the text I've typed (except Facebook!).
It's beginning to drive me nuts and I'm really hoping to find a fix to this.

You will also notice that your shift key will be emulated. Meaning that keys you will try to press will press but they will act like you are pressing the shift key when you are doing them.
Try this, minimize the firefox window by pressing the tab on your taskbar. After doing that maximize it again. You will magically be able to click any link on your page. When you navigate to a new page however, the entire situation will start all over. My only remedy is rebooting and hoping it doesn't happen again soon.

Accessing Close button in TitleWindow

Hi all,
I have a situation where I'm adding buttons to a TitleWindow
chrome. They co-exist with the close button provided by the panel.
I create classes for my button images and then I size the buttons
to fit the image.
I also set the styles for the panel-provided close button
with classes. My goal was to have all the buttons look & feel
the same.
Excerpt from application mxmxl ...
<mx:Style>
TitleWindow {
backgroundColor: #333333;
closeButtonDisabledSkin: Embed("assets/close.png");
closeButtonDownSkin: Embed("assets/closeDown.png");
closeButtonOverSkin: Embed("assets/closeDown.png");
closeButtonUpSkin: Embed("assets/closeUp.png");
</mx:Style>
<v:ResizeWindow id="testResizeWindow"
height="50%"
width="50%"
title="Resize Window"
useWindowButtons="true"
status=""
showCloseButton="true"
restoreWindow="this.currentState=''"
maximizeWindow="this.currentState='maximized'"
minimizeWindow="this.currentState='minimized'"
close="popUp('Close button clicked')">
</v:ResizeWindow>
Excerpt from my ResizeWindow class ...
override protected function createChildren():void{
super.createChildren();
if(useWindowButtons){
if(btnMinimize == null){
btnMinimize = new Button();
var btnMinimizeImageObj:BitmapAsset = new
btnMinimizeUpSkin() as BitmapAsset;
btnMinimize.width = btnMinimizeImageObj.width;
btnMinimize.height = btnMinimizeImageObj.height;
btnMinimize.setStyle("upSkin", btnMinimizeUpSkin);
btnMinimize.setStyle("overSkin", btnMinimizeDownSkin);
btnMinimize.setStyle("downSkin", btnMinimizeDownSkin);
btnMinimize.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,
minimizeHandler);
btnMinimize.focusEnabled=false;
btnMinimize.visible=true;
rawChildren.addChild(btnMinimize);
Questions:
1) For the buttons I add (e.g. btnMinimize) ... if I don't
explicitly set the width and height, they default to 0 and button
is invisible. Button class says it should size in accordance with
the image. Is this normal behavior?
2) Along the lines of #1 above, if I just create btnMinimize
and give it a text label (no image), the button sizes to a width
and height of 0. I have to set the width and height for it to
appear? Is this normal behavior?
3) I can't include a screen clip here but the close button
succesfully uses the images I provide but it is larger than the
other buttons (and the image is distorted). Can I set the height
and width of the close button to match the image I'm providing (or
conversely can I get the height and width of the close button so I
can size my buttons the same)?
Spent a few days and I'm getting nowhere ...
thx in advance for any help ...

Hi Laxmi,
User has no control on OVS window.You can't add your custom button on OVS window.In OVS Listener implement the three life cycle methods i)onQuery ii) applyResult and iii) applyInputValues which are predefine.

Disabling windows close button in dialog

Hi,
I am using Jdev 10.1.3.x(10g)
I am opening a dialog pop up for a functionality. What i want is to force user to use cancel button provided inside dialog to come out of it and want user to not to use windows cance X button.
Is there any way by which i can hide the title bar or disable the close button or on click of widow close i actually click on cancel button throgh java script?
Main concern is i am passing some data from parent to dialog throgh process scope and i want to clear it on cancel. In my application there are many popup dialog which may lead to memeory issue so i seek solution to clear this data once it is not desired any more.
Also i tried Request object to pass the data but in popup it is not recognised.
Suggestion in any direction will be helpful.
Regards,
Kevin Chheda

Hi,
answering this question for 10.1.3 since 11g is different and provides a af:dialog component to handle this case. In 10.1.3 the window you open is an external browser window. You cannot disable the close button here because it is part of the browser window that JavaScript cannot control
