Upcoming Forms 9i release - Web only?
Our applications have some integration with the desktop, eg launching other apps.
Will this be possible in the next release of Forms? (If not, I can't see many sites taking it on!)
TIA
Have a look at the "Oracle9i Forms - Feature Obsolence", it can be found on the web http://technet.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/featuresobsolescence.pdf
As far as I understand the advocte for JavaBeans as a replacement.

How to display LOV on web in ENTER-QUERY mode with form or block query only.
Hello all
How can I display lov automatic on the web in from enter-query
mode in form or block query only mode.
thankxIf I understand correctly your explanation, your called form
fails to activate the LOV in enter-query mode when it is deployed
and test on the browser.
So lets proceeed like this, to make it work in all environments,
let us programetically activate the LOV.
HOW?
In the called form, write in the WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE TRIGGER
at block level (if have more than one LOV)
IF :SYSTEM.MODE = 'ENTER-QUERY' THEN
IF get_item_property(:system.cursor_item,lov_name) IN ('YOUR
LOV1', 'LOV2' etc) THEN
IF SHOW_LOV(get_item_property(:system.cursor_item,lov_name))
THEN
NULL;
END IF;
END IF;
END IF;
The above code maybe tweak to suite your need and condition.
This way, we explicitly make the LOV appear in ENTER-QUERY mode
whenever the user clicks on an item with an attached LOV.
Hope this helps.

I designed a PDF form for a client. The form was sent by email to a group of people, completed by these people, and returned by email. I combined all of the completed forms into a single PDF, and the combined PDF was posted to their web site.
The client made the comment:
"Next time I want a more dynamic and socially networked web-only project."
Can anyone clarify what the client meant by that?
Is it possible to do what the client wants using a PDF form or would something different be needed?There are a combination of interpretations that come to mind. Dynamic could refer to the form itself (can be done in Designer), but I doubt it. I suspect he is looking for a solution that has the data submitted to a web script that process the data and adds it to an HTML file in a dynamic sense, so right after the form has been submitted, the data is posted.
If that is what is requested, then you need to have the form data (no need for the whole form) submitted to a web script that parses the data into a database and the results of the database posted on the web site. The parsing for an AcroForm can be done with the FDF Toolkit. If it is a Designer form then you need to parse the XML data file that is submitted.
I think the boss is trying to get around the tedious and delayed process that you used with collecting e-mails and then combining the results. Such a process is not dynamic or that timely, and requires a person to be in the loop that has some idea of what needs to be done. -
Displaying Adobe Form through CRM WEB UI
Hi Experts,
Currently I am working on CRM Technical which is very new to me. I've got a requirement to display the Adobe form through CRM WEB UI. The requirement is like this.
In a screen of WEB UI there is a option of OUTPUT preview. When i select the specific billing document and when i click on OUTPUT Preview tab it should display the Adobe Form which was developed in SAP GUI using txn SFP. I have done some R&D on it and i found that an ACTION Profile need to be created for this kind of requirements. But in my research i found only Smartforms can be displayed using the ACTION point.. Could anyone help me out how to display the Adobe Form using the Action......
Regards,
Aarthi.
Moderator message: please have a look in the dedicated forum for "Adobe Interactive Forms".
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Jan 11, 2011 1:51 PMHi Robert,
I came across this post after implementing the same solution. It works fine for me in SAPgui, i.e. it creates an entry in the spool which I can priview or print, but when I use the webUI it just opens a new window with a white background and the message 'Error in smartform'.
Nitin, did you manage to come up with any solution? Or did this work for you?

How to retrieve the multiple rows data on PDF form in a web service method using WSDL DataConnection
How to retrieve the multiple rows data on PDF form in a web service method using WSDL DataConnection.
I have a multiple rows on PDF form. All rows have 4 textfields. I want to submit the multiple rows data to a method defiened in webservice.
Unable to retrieve the data in multiple rows within webservice method.Hi Paul,
I'm now able to save the retrieved xml in a hidden text field and create dynamic table, and I'm able to fill this table from the XML, but the problem is that I could not find the correct way to loop on the xml, what I'm trying to say, the table will have number of rows with the data of the first row only, so can you tell me the right way to loop on the xml!
this is my code
TextField1.rawValue=xmlData.document.rawValue;
xfa.datasets.data.loadXML(TextField1.rawValue, true, false);
for(var i=0; i<count; i++)
xfa.form.resolveNode("form1.P1.Table1.Row1["+i+"].Num").rawValue = xfa.datasets.data.record.num.value;
xfa.form.resolveNode("form1.P1.Table1.Row1["+i+"].Name").rawValue = xfa.datasets.data.record.name.value;
Table1.Row1.instanceManager.addInstance(true);
Thanks

Oracle forms to j2ee/web application
Hello all,
I need help with converting "oracle forms" to j2ee/web application. There are only 2-3 forms. But I needed to know how to do it from scratch. I looked at some softwares available to do it. But its costly.
Basically the company I am working with, needed all the forms online, so that they can access it using a browser. As part of the development, I am using jdeveloper 10g.
could some help me out
Thanks a lot
sanWell if you need your Forms accesible from a browser you don't need to convert them to Java - you just use Forms on the Web - http://otn.oracle.com/formsupgrade
If you still want to convert to Java have a look at the Forms page for more info:

and also here:

8.0.5 with Apps Server 4.0.7 and Dev6.0. I have been able to run
Forms on the web and with Jinitiator and with out Jinitiator but
there are a few problems
1 ) The Tigger " When Mouse Click" does not fires on the web for
a display item.
2) when i set the CLASSPATH=E:\orant\forms60\java for forms the
tree in OAS 4.0.7 stops showing and if i remove it from there
then i am not able to run the forms for web through the forms
designer
3) the performnce is very slow how to improve the performance on
Web with jinitiator.

I can only speculate on some of your issues, but maybe they
might give you some insight on possible alternatives.
Mouse-Click on Display Item
The display item does not, by definition allow modification.
Have you tried changing the item to text and then disabling the
INSERT and UPDATE properties to NO? I have tried using display
items in the past, resulting in a grayed-out box on the web. To
get around this, I made the above changes and created a mouse
trigger to jump to another field when someone tried to mouse-
click on it.
Changing CLASSPATH on OAS 4.0.7
I had the same results. The OAS installation sets the CLASSPATH
to what it needs and changing it has the results you describe.
I am curious, however, are you able to view the form from the
Developer Forms Designer using the other CLASSPATH. I have not
been able to use this feature at all. I read somewhere that
this functionality is not available in the beta version. I
would appreciate any information that you can share.
Jinitiator Performance
Assuming that you have already tried cache settings and short of
the users having faster machines with more memory, faster web
access, etc. I don't think there is much we can do but wait for
Oracle and Sun to make enhancements.
I have had some success with using IE 5.0 (beta) directly
without the Jinitiator. My web applications load and run a
whole lot faster using the same configuration that you describe.
It might be worth another look!
Hope this helps.

Viewing Icons in Oracle Forms on the Web - any solutions?
Has anyone had problems viewing icons when deploying forms on the web? In client server mode it used to be .ico files. I recently converted our files to .gif and added a register UI_ICON to recognize the icon images when running the forms. I still cannot get the images to appear (icons on buttons). Am I missing something? I am using Oracle Forms 6i Release 2 on Oracle9iAS (1.0.2.2.2a) platform.

Is Lightroom available as web only app as well? Or do you need a desktop version?
Considering to throw out the laptop and move to a chromebook, want to keep using Lightroom, so is it possible to run it as a web only app? Or do you need some form of local copy somewhere?
Thanks!Your second possibility is the answer. There isn't a version of Lightroom for the Chromebook. There isn't even a mobile version for it that will run with a regular Lightroom installation on another computer.

Color interface of the forms over the web are not confortable
hello,
the interface color of our application in the web are not realy confortable for our client comparing the old color used in our client/server application.
we want to change it but we are not able the set a confortable color for our
application :
- if we use the lookandfell=generic but the color of toolbar are disable.
- if we use the lookandfeel=oracle, the the choice of color for colorscheme is
not variable (it exist only 5 choice).
our environment ;
OAS 10G (9041)
FORMS 10G
DATABASE 10G
we use the forms Servlet (e.g. f60servlet/f90servlet) to invoke the Form over the Web.
can you help us.
thank'sFor as far as I can remember there is a difference between look-and-feel Oracle and Generic in displaying toolbar icon.
Generic follows the Windows 9x/Internet Explorer approach of showing all toolbar icons as gray-tones and only showing color when you hover over them with the mouse. Oracle lookandfeel displays all toolbar-icons in color (as long as they are enabled). -
URGENT : Form Developer6i on web
Hello,
I have 3 problems :
1. How to know application of Form Developer run at client/server or web ?.. Are there any syntax or not?
2. As for printer,
How to know the printer's name if the applicaltion run on web ?
How many printers are connected at report server ?
and How to pop up dialog box printer's list at Form Developer ?
3. For OS at 9iAS
How Form Developer know OS at 9iAS ?
Regards.1) Check online help for GET_APPLICATION_PROPERTY and check for USERINTERFACE
2)Forms on the Web is same as client server so however you got the printername before - you can do the same for the Web deployed (however this applies ONLY if the printer is conncected to the app server). If you need the printer connceted to the client you may need a Java bean (look for orarrp in the reports OTN page).
3) See 1 but for OPERATING SYSTEM

How to put the forms on the WEB
Is this possible to create an HTML or JAVA file?
In forms you can launch the application in WEB mode OK, but how to launch in the browser?
Please give me all the task to do.
Thanks!Hello!
Install Oracle Forms Server. If you use custom instalation you do not need WEB browser - Forms server instals the WEB DB listener which acts as browser, listening on port 80 and communicating with the Forms Server.
Download the PDF document "Forms Server Release 6i" from the Forms page on the OTN. Print it. Read it.
Everything is relatively easy but of course more complex as in client-server enviroment - you have to think about the browser, URL, Jinitiator, ... etc.!
Good luck!
