Trying to go from using tables to css

I'm wanting to get into the 21st century and am just
wondering if the
css templates such as 3 Column Elastic that come with CS3
would be a
good way to start in learning to design without tables? There
seem to be
a lot of problems getting CSS columns to align properly in
different
browsers and I'm wondering if using these as a starting point
would
eliminate these problems or if there's a better way to go.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Fred

They could help. But a stiff dose of understanding would also
be a good
thing to acquire -

Interactive Reporting - Chg Query from Using Table to Result Set w/ same Co

Currently I have a query that uses an Oracle table. I would like to change the query to use the result set of another query wh/ contains the same information & column names (however, since I am creating the results from scratch, I don't have to wait for the Oracle table to be updated). Is there a way to do this change w/o IR automatically removing the column names from the results and then making me go back into each result set and re-adding them, formatting them, etc. For example, the query currently uses a table called Defect_History, wh/ has columns bug_id, application, sub-app, etc. This table is not updated on a daily basis, so I have created a new query wh/ goes against the source tables used in creating the Defect_History table and puts the latest information into an IR result set. Is there a way to change the current queries that use the Defect_History table to use the IR result set instead w/o basically recreating each of the subsequent queries? I have gone into Dashboard Studio Optimize Utility, but the queries show as using Data Model, Data Model2, etc as the Parent and I am not able to make changes to it.
Thanks.
Terri

I am in the Dashboard Studio - Optimize Utility. When I select that report (or any of the others), the Reparent button is grayed out on the toolbar. I've also tried right-clicking on the report and it's grayed out there as well. Any ideas?

'Data Access Error' while trying to delete period using Table Editor in FDM

Hi,
I'm trying to delete a period that has been entered wrongly using Tools->Table Editor option.
But when I try to 'Update Grid' after deleting the Period,I get 'Data Access Error'.
Could any one let me know how to solve the error.
Thanks in advance

Hi Kelly,
There is no data that is entered in that period.The data will be entered for that period next month.
POV is also not set to that period,but still the problem persists.

How do you prevent the spry menu from using the main css background-image?

(Dreamweaver CS5. Problem seems not to be browser specific)
I added some code I found online to my main css file in order to allow a custom icon to be used as a bullet in unordered lists, sitewide. It was added before the "body,td,th {" line.
The problem is that the same icon now appears on the upper left hand corner of each main menu segment; not on any submenus or during any mouse states. Just the main at-rest bar.
I know this is somehow related to spry itself being a list, but how do I keep it from showing the background image of the main css file?
Thanks!
This is the site http://www.usc.edu/org/seagrant/NS/
The code which was added to the css file is shown below:
ul{
    list-style:none;
    margin:0 0 1em 15px;
    padding: 0;
ul li{
    line-height:1.3em;
    margin: .25em 0;
    padding: 0 0 0 15px;
    background:url(../Images/Compass_Website_small_2-4-11.png) no-repeat 0 4px;
li ul{
    margin:0 0 0 30px;
    list-style:disc;
li ul li{
    padding-left:0;
    background:none;
li ul li ul{
    margin:0 0 0 30px;
    list-style:circle;
ul li ul li ul{
    padding-left:0;
    background:none;
/* Holly Hack to fix ie6 li bg */
/* Hides from IE-mac \*/
* html li{height: 1%;}
/* End hide from IE-mac */
@media print{
ul {
    list-style:disc;
    margin-left:30px;
ul li {
    padding-left:0px;
    background:none;
} /* end print */
body,td,th { - etc...

Add/modify the following to your document
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li {
    background: rgba(0,0,0,0.0) url(none);

Inserting data from one table into another table using PL/SQL

HI,
I am trying to insert values from one table into another using PL procedure, the values I want to retrieve from the table riverside1 are charac_id and charac_type and insert these values into another table called riverside2 , the stored procedure zorgs_gorfs(x,y) accepts two parameters which are 2 charac_id's of d characters in riverside1 then using insert statements inserts these characters from riverside1 into riverside2.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE zorgs_gorfs(x IN NUMBER, y IN NUMBER) AS
     BEGIN
          INSERT INTO riverside2
               (charac_id)
          VALUES
               (x);
INSERT INTO riverside2
               (charac_id)
          VALUES
               (y);
      END zorgs_gorfs;
/This works but the problem im having is that when I also try to insert the charac_type as well as the charac_id it doesnt work below is the code:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE zorgs_gorfs(x IN NUMBER, y IN NUMBER) AS
     BEGIN
          INSERT INTO riverside2

modify this sql

               WHERE
                    charac_id in ( x,y));But my suggestion would be consider revising your approach. It does not look that good.

Report using Data from different tables

Hello,
I am trying to convert a Cobol batch program to Oracle 6i tabular report.
The data is fetched from many different tables and there are lots of processing(i.e, based on the value of a column from one table need additional processing from different tables) required to generate the desired columns in the final report.
I would like to know what is the best strategy to follow in Oracle Reports 6i. I heard that CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE is an option. ( or REF CURSOR ?) I do not know much about its usage. Can somebody guide me about this or any other better way to achieve the result.
Thank you in advance
Priya

Hello,
There are many, many options available to you, each of which has advantages and disadvantages. This is why it is difficult to answer "what is best?" without alot more details about your specific circumstances.
In general, you're going to be writing PL/SQL to do any conditional logic that cannot be expressed as pure SQL. It can executed in the database, or it can executed within Reports itself. And most reports developers do some of both.
As a general rule, you want to send only the data you need from the database to the report. This means you want to do as much filtering and aggregating of the data as is readily possible within the database. If this cannot be expressed as plain SQL queries, then you'll want to create a stored procedures to help do this work.
Generally, the PL/SQL you create for executing within the report should be focused on control of the formatting, such as controlling whether a field is visible, or controlling display attributes for conditional formatting.
But these are not hard and fast rules. In some cases, it is difficult to get all the stored procedures you might like installed into the database. Perhaps the dba is reluctant to let you install that many stored procedures. Perhaps there are restrictions when and how often updates can be made to stored procedures in a production database, which makes it difficult to incrementally adjust your reports based on user feedback. Or perhaps there are restrictions for how long queries are allowed to run.
So, Reports offers lots of options and features to let you do data manipulation operations from within the report data model.
In any case, Oracle does offer temporary table capabilities. You can populate a temp table by running stored procedures that do queries, calculations and aggregations. And you can define and initiate a dynamic query statement within the database and pass a handle to this query off to the report to execute (ref cursor).
From the reports side, you can have as many queries as you want in the data model, arranged in any hierarchy via links. You can parameterize and change the queries dynamically using bind variables and lexicals. And you can add calculations, aggregations, and filters.
Again, most people do data manipulation both in the database and in Reports, using the database for what it excels at, and Reports for what it excels at.
Hope this helps.

Loading data from one table to another using cursor

Hi,
I have given the below command to load the data from 1 table to another using cursor.
declare
cursor mycursor IS
SELECT extract_name,from_date,to_date,BETA from temp_table where EXTRACT_NAME='GIFTCARD_DETAILS';
Begin
for mycursor_1 IN mycursor loop
insert into tmp_tab columns(col1,col2,col3,col5) values(mycursor_1.EXTRACT_NAME,mycursor_1.from_date,mycursor_1.to_date,mycursor_1.BETA);
End loop;
commit;
end;
It is working fine.
But I want to hard code some of the columns ( like flags ) which are not there in 1st table and load them into 2nd table.
In db2 we will give commands like
varSqlStatus=`db2 "declare mycurs cursor for select extract_name,from_date,to_date,BETA,'N','Y' from temp_table"`
varSqlStatus=`db2 "load from mycurs of cursor modified by identityignore insert into tmp_tab(col1,col2,col3,col5,col6,col7) nonrecoverable"`
But I want it in oracle 10g, Can any one help me in this.

Have you tried either of the two options :
1. Modify the CURSOR itself :
cursor mycursor IS
SELECT extract_name,from_date,to_date,BETA,'N','Y' from temp_table where EXTRACT_NAME='GIFTCARD_DETAILS';2. Modify the INSERT statement itself :
insert into tmp_tab columns(col1,col2,col3,col5,col6,col7) values(mycursor_1.EXTRACT_NAME,mycursor_1.from_date,mycursor_1.to_date,mycursor_1.BETA,'N','Y');

How to Drop an index from a used table. online

I need to drop an index from a table that is constantly used , read and write.
The DML's are locking the table and preventing the index drop (ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified )
I tried to lock the table first - using 'lock table TAB1 in exclusive mode'
but when i ran the 'drop index' command , the drop (as all DDL's) first commits and this frees the lock which cause again the ORA-00054: resource busy and acquire with NOWAIT specified error.
I would appriciate any help .I can't take the DB or table or Application writing to the table offline. I need something like 'create index IND1 online' for DROP but there is none as far as I know...
Thanks in advanve.

"It is requsted for the removal of an ORDER BY clause from a CPU consuming query.
The extra field enables me to remove it as the result set comes back ordered by the index"
It might do that today, but it is not guaranteed to do it tomorrow. Oracle may be able to retrieve the records ordered using that index, but I would leave it in your query if you are depending on the rows being ordered. The CBO is smart enough to not actually sort the rows (i.e. act on the ORDER BY clause) if it can get them sorted using the index, but if it decides to use another access path for one of many reasons your results will not be sorted without the ORDER BY.
Since the CBO seems to think that your existing index is useful (which is why you cannot get the lock on it), your only option is to wait for a period of really low activity on the database and try it then.

Using FDM Import Action script to import data from ERPI table "tdataseg_t"

Hi Experts
I have extracted data from EBS using ERPI and loaded into the intermediate table "tdataseg_t"
I am trying to use Import Action script within FDM to extract data from "tdataseg_t" table (where ERPI extract data is stored) as i could not use the normal import script.
Requirement : I have to restrict the custom 2 dimension based on Account dimension.
Dim Account
Account = ???? ( i am struck here)
If Account = 1000 to 5000 Then
Custom2 = Right( product , 5)
End If
but , I could not find the exact syntax to call the Account dimension from the "tdataseg_t" table.
Please Advise
Thanks
Sak
Edited by: user12292415 on Feb 26, 2012 1:19 AM

Hello,
Importing data via a manual script defeats the purpose of ERPi. As it will not provide you an audit trail, drill-through/drill-back, etc.
Your best bet is to use the default settings by the software. Just because it returns more records than you want is not a bad thing. You can conditionally change/alter the information either in an EventScript inside of FDM or by mapping the un-needed information to IGNORE.
Thank you,

Using form from a table

I want to use a form from a table because it will create all my ddl.
However the table I want to use I have to get the description from other tables using a foreign
key. Can this be done.
Currently I am trying to do this with a report but I have to make my updates by looping
through apex_application.
Howard

Howard:
You could build a view that includes the columns that you need from the related tables. You can then create a Report/Form based on this view. However, you will have to make sure that the form includes only those columns from the table that you want to update/insert/delete .

Should I define tables in the CSS file or from the Table option on the menu bar?

I am having trouble understanding which table definitions are the ascendant ones: the CSSfile table definitions or the definitions from the Table option on the menu bar. Is there a conflict if I am applying the CSS style to every topic? Who wins...CSS or Table?

Hi there
Sorry, but I think you are a bit confused. I'm assuming here that you are referring to defining tables via the toolbar? Where you use this button?
That simply inserts the table structure which is later styled using CSS.
Then there is the other option where you click Table > Insert > Table and you do two things. You insert the table structure as well as some special CSS codes that are added to your CSS file.
Cheers... Rick
