Using a Menu Model to Create a Page Hierarchy

Hello I starded to follow steps for creating a dynamic menu with Meu Model , as displayed on par 18.6 of "Web User Interface Developer's Guide for Oracle Application Development Framework ".
My menu_root.xml is :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
<menu xmlns="http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/menu">
<itemNode id="itemNode_home" label=*"Home"* action="adfMenu_home" focusViewId="/home"/>
<itemNode id="itemNode_search" label=*"Search"* action="adfMenu_search" focusViewId="/search"/>
<groupNode id="gn1" idref="itemNode_adminCostCenter" label=*"Administration"*>
<itemNode id="itemNode_adminCostCenter" label="label_adminCostCenter" action="adfMenu_adminCostCenter"
focusViewId="/adminCostCenter"/>
<itemNode id="itemNode_adminCostType" label="label_adminCostType" action="adfMenu_adminCostType"
focusViewId="/adminCostType"/>
</groupNode>
<groupNode id="gn2" idref="itemNode_viewTransaction" label=*"Transactions"*>
<itemNode id="itemNode_createTransaction" label="label_createTransaction" action="adfMenu_createTransaction"
focusViewId="/createTransaction"/>
<itemNode id="itemNode_viewTransaction" label="label_viewTransaction" action="adfMenu_viewTransaction"
focusViewId="/viewTransaction"/>
</groupNode>
</menu>
and I have bound this menu as follow on page ( it is a page for template):
<af:panelGroupLayout id="pt_pgl1" layout="vertical">
<af:outputText value="#{viewcontrollerBundle.HB_TITLE}" id="pt_ot1" inlineStyle="color:rgb(49,115,255); font-size:x-large;"/>
<af:navigationPane id="pt_np1" hint="bar" value="#{root_menu}" var="menuNode" level="0">
<f:facet name="nodeStamp">
<af:commandNavigationItem id="pt_cni1" text="#{menuNode.label}" action="#{menuNode.doAction}" icon="#{menuNode.icon}" destination="#{menuNode.destination}"/>
</f:facet>
</af:navigationPane>
<af:navigationPane id="pt_np2" hint="list" value="#{root_menu}" var="menuNode" level="1">
<f:facet name="nodeStamp">
<af:commandNavigationItem id="pt_cni2" text="#{menuNode.label}" action="#{menuNode.doAction}" icon="#{menuNode.icon}" destination="#{menuNode.destination}"/>
</f:facet>
</af:navigationPane>
</af:panelGroupLayout>
THEN my question is , why ,running , I see only the first level (Home | Search | Administration | Transactions ) ; the last two voices should not have a list of child (e.g. label_adminCostCenter and label_adminCostType for Administration parent ) ?
thanks

  • How to use a menu model with a dynamic region and a task flow parameter

    I am using JDeveloper/ADF 11.1.2.1
    I have a menu model that changes which task flow is displayed in a given dynamic region using a backing bean. That works fine. I would like to be able to pass parameters to that task flow based on which menu item is clicked. For example: i have a task flow which shows a page where input fields are used to filter a table. Depending on the value of the task flow parameter I want to change which input fields are displayed. So i will have multiple menu items which refer to the same task flow but have a different set of parameters. I have tried using request scope variables and setting them in the backing bean for the dynamic region which works until the query is submitted at which point the request scope has changed and the value is no longer available. I have tried a number of other 'creative' approaches but have not gotten anything to work. Anyone done this before? Or have an idea on how to solve it?

    Frank,
    I did a fair bit of digging based on your suggestions and some things I found in your Oracle Fusion Developer's Guide book and I came up with something that works really well. It is fairly elegant but requires code. It would be nice if something like a setPropertyListener could be rolled into the menu model. That would make my solution completely declarative.
    Here is my solution:
    My task flow requires a the value #{pageFlowScope.type} to be set. My application has a dynamic region that is changed on the fly using a menu model. The region uses a backing bean (mainRegionManagerBean) which is in the viewScope to manage what taskflow is shown in the region. There are multiple menu items in the menu model that point to the same task flow but pass different values to the #{pageFlowScope.type} parameter. So i wired the menu items up to different methods in the mainRegionManagerBean which set the value for me. See the relevant code below.
    I would be very interested in the feedback from someone with more experience than I on my solution. Maybe there is a more elegant way...
    In the backing bean there is a primary method that was created by generating a dynamic region link which sets the task flow id and then other methods which call it and set the relevant parameters. (JSFUtils is a helper class i wrote to centralize some common tasks):
    public String shipmentTraceMasterTaskflow()
    taskFlowId = "/WEB-INF/taskflow/master/shipmentTraceMasterTaskflow.xml#shipmentTraceMasterTaskflow";
    JSFUtils.setValue("pageFlowScope.type", "");
    return null;
    public String shipmentTraceProNumber()
    shipmentTraceMasterTaskflow();
    JSFUtils.setValue("pageFlowScope.type", "pronumber");
    return null;
    public String shipmentTraceBOLNumber()
    shipmentTraceMasterTaskflow();
    JSFUtils.setValue("pageFlowScope.type", "bolnumber");
    return null;
    In the menu model (notice that these reference the different methods from above):
    <itemNode id="itemNode_ProNumberTrace" label="ProNumber Trace" action="#{viewScope.mainRegionManagerBean.shipmentTraceProNumber}" focusViewId=""/>
    <itemNode id="itemNode_BOLNumberTrace" label="BOL Number Trace" action="#{viewScope.mainRegionManagerBean.shipmentTraceBOLNumber}" focusViewId=""/>
    On the page:
    <af:region value="#{bindings.dynamicRegion1.regionModel}" id="r1"/>
    In the pagedef:
    <taskFlow id="dynamicRegion1" taskFlowId="${viewScope.mainRegionManagerBean.dynamicTaskFlowId}" activation="deferred" xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/controller/binding" Refresh="ifNeeded">
    <parameters>
    <parameter id="type" value="#{pageFlowScope.type}"/>
    </parameters>
    </taskFlow>

  • Using cookies and JavaScript to create a page to page timer.

    I have long wanted to be able to measure the time it takes to get from one page to another.  While reading in my JavaScript reference the other day, I came across cookies.  I've long known about cookies but have never used them.  The thing that looked attractive was that you can access cookies from both JavaScript and CF.
    So I put together the procedures to store the "start time" (startTimeP8D) for the transition and activated it on the onUnload event of a 1stpage.  After a few rewrites I got it working.   Here is the JavaScript to do that: it consists of two functions: doTimer which is the input section and setCookie, which writes to the cookie.  Not the two numbered alert statements.
    doTimer - results for "start" from the doTimer function called from page 1 when it unloads. (See doTimer below)
         Please note that the two startTime8D values are the same immediately after they are stored.
    On the 2nd page in the sequence, I run the corresponding code to determine the "end time", compute the delta and write it out to the page.  It didn't all run on the first try, but it now seems to be running without a crash, which can be misleading.
          second set of outputs from page 2:    
         Please not that while the endTimeP8D match, the startTimeP8D value no longer matches the previously stored value. 
    There is one major hitch in the get along which has me stymied:  As you can see, when you compare the startTimeP8 in the setCookie – results above and the "startTimeP8" in the doTimer results below the startTimeP8 is not the value that I wrote to the cookie @ unload of page 1.  I have checked and checked and do now see anywhere that the startTimeP8D value is being overwritten.  Based upon my limited experience with JavaScript cookies, it seems to me that you get an entry for each time you set the cookie.  So I would expect to see to startTimeP8D entry for each setCookie event, not a different value.
         The result of the failed computation is shown on the bottom of the page.  As you can see, the Total Elapsed Time is negative, which is never a good sign.  The other time shown, Page build time, is the run time from the server.  The whole purpose is to be able to show folks that the reason the code might be show is because of their overloaded network and not our code.  We had one client whose had users running on 56k modems.  It was so slow their VPN software was timing out!!!  Still the had the never to blame us!!!
    I am using SQLServer 2005, CF8, IE8 on W7. 
    I'm not married to this way of doing this so if anyone has a better/easier way of doing a "page to page timer", I'm up for it.  I'd prefer to fix this one since I've been working on it for the past 3 days.
    Thanks in advcance for your help.

    Note that overwriting global window events like this is not a good idea, which is why I used JQuery in my earlier example. I strongly suggest you look at JQuery or one of the other JS libraries (YUI, etc.) to help with event handling. I'll leave it at that as this is getting into JavaScript development, not really on topic for a ColdFusion forum.

  • How To Use Dynamic Menus To Place Manually Created Jspx Pages On Sub-Level

    JHeadstarters,
    Back on the JHS trail and could use some help.
    I started using dynamic menus (see section 9.2 JHS Dev Guide) to setup a custom menu structure and found it could not be easier however I need to solve 2 issues;
    1. How to get more than 2 levels deep on the menus (parent, child, grand-child, etc.)? In the menu structure setup I have created a menu that is 3-levels deep however when it runs you only get 2 levels. Perhaps a template needs to be changed.
    2. How can I assign manually created jspx pages to sub-level menus?
    Scenerio;
    I have JHS generated pages *** AND *** manually created pages. Using dynamic menus to place the JHS genned pages works fine, the problem is how to do it with manually created pages.
    Using Dynamic Menu's I created a top-level menu tab named "warp-core", below it on the next level I have two sub-menus, one named "search" and one named "form" for displaying the results of the search and modifying the rows (don't ask me why they are seperate).
    The problem is how to assign the manually created jspx pages to those sub-menus? Or am I going abouth this the wrong way? Perhaps I could use JHS to generate seperate search and display pages.
    Thanks!
    BG...

    Bill,
    1. Yes, you need to decide yourself how and where you want to render this third level menu. You then create a region file similar to dynamicMenu2Tabs.jspx, just replace the references to level2MenuItems with level3MenuItems. Then create a custom template to call this menu 3 region file.
    For example, you could create a bulleted vertical list for level 3 as illustrated in section 9.1.3 of the Developers Guide (that example is with static menu, but you can use similar technique for dynamic menu)
    2. Instead of a group name, you can specify a JSF Navigation action in the menu administration application. So, you create a global navigation case to your custom page, and you enter this navigation case id in the menu admin app.
    Note that if you want to generate separate search pages, you can do so by setting the advanced search property to "separatePage".

  • Creating sub pages

    How does one do this in iWeb?

    Keep main page in the navigation menu and then for your sub pages, you don't put them in the nav menu - open the Inspector and then click on Page and then click on the box that has "don't include page in nav menu" and that is it.
    You then create your own links on the sub pages back to the main page and wherever you want by using either shapes or text boxes or whatever.
    To make the whole process easier, you could always ditch the iWeb page template nav menu by turning it off and creating your own text based nav menu, which makes creating sub pages easier - you just don't include what you don't want.

  • How to set the tables parameter to a BAPI using adaptive RFC model

    Hi,
    I have a BAPI ZBAPI that has a tables parameter ZPernr of type ZTable with two elements pernr and name.
    I used adaptive RFC model and created model classes for the BAPI.
    My question how do i set list of pernr and name to the tables parameter in the webdynpro for java.
    I have the following methods available
    ZBAPI input = new ZBAPI();
    1.ZTable table = new ZTable();
    table.setPernr(pernr);
    table.setname(name);
    input.addZPernr(table);
    how do i set the table parameter for multiple pernr and name
    2.
    add all the pernr and name to list and set that list to input in the following way
    input.setZPernr(list) and list of typecom.sap.aii.proxy.framework.core. AbstractList
    out of two methods mentioned which one is correct.
    Please let me know the solution
    Thanks
    Bala Duvvuri

    Hi Bala,
                In your code:
    List pernrList = new ArrayList();
    pernrList  should be declared as the  type of class HROBJECT   ( The structure name in the model  e.g. the node PERFWARN type is Zhrecmfm_002_Perfrat_Warning_Input )
    Try this:
    HROBJECT  pernrList = new HROBJECT();
    pernrList.setPernr(pernr);
    input.setPernr_List(pernrList);
    // call BAPI execute method
    If you want to pass list of pernrs, you can pass in alternate way
    IPrivate<viewname>.I<nodeame>Node prNode = wdContext.node<node>();
    IPrivate<viewname>.I<nodeame>Element prEle;
    for (int i = 0; i < table.size(); i++) {
    HROBJECT  pernrList = new HROBJECT();
    pernrList.setPernr(pernr); // Set the pernr from current record
    prEle = prNode.create<nodeame>Element(pernrList);
    prNode.addElement(prEle);     
    // call BAPI execute method
    Once I execute the BAPI how do i iterate thru second table parameter PERNR_PERFRAT to get pernr and performance rating text
    Say your node name is  PERNR_PERFRAT
    for (int i = 0; i < wdContext.nodePERNR_PERFRAT().size(); i++) {
    wdContext.nodePERNR_PERFRAT().getPERNR_PERFRATElementAt(i).getPernr();
    wdContext.nodePERNR_PERFRAT().getPERNR_PERFRATElementAt(i).getPerfrat();

  • To create home page which consists of menu for other pages in a tree format

    hi, i'm using Jdev 11g, i want to create one home page which having a tree format menu for other pages ,plz tell me

    Hi,
    the tree structure must be defined in a tree model that you then associate as the value to the tree component. I think the best doc to start with is from Trinidada: http://myfaces.apache.org/trinidad/devguide/tree.html
    Note that ADF Faces components base on Trinidad, so the docs can be used here as well. Also, while you are on this page, have a look at the XML Menu Model, which is a nice way of creating hierarchical structures in XML so the structure is not hard coded in a Java class

  • Using jump menu in one frame to open page in another frame - works in IE but not Firefox

    Hi,
    I'm a beginner designer. I've been working to create a template for a website in which there is a banner in a frame across the top and three frames beneath - left for navigation and middle and right for content that can be compared.
    I have created two jump menus in the left frame using Dreamweaver's option for it (insert/forms/jump menu): one menu to load pages in the middle frame (in the code this is 'left') and one menu to load pages in the right frame (in the code this is 'right'). Both menus use a go button.
    Using Internet Explorer and allowing active content to run it works fine. In Firefox clicking 'go' does nothing however I have links in this navigation that will open a page in the middle or right ('left' and 'right') frames and if I use these the jump menus will now work.
    How can I get it to work straight off?
    Any feedback is welcome (except regarding not using frames!).

Well I guess that's solved but out of curiosity, any ideas for why it wouldn't work when the frameset is loaded on its own?
    It might be due to the fact that you're using XHTML 1.0 Transitional, a DOCTYPE that does not support framesets. Try converting to HTML 4.01 Transitional or HTML 4.01 Frameset if you do not need or understand XHTML. Or use XHTML 1.0 Frameset if you really need XHTML.

  • Menus created using manual won't link to other Pages

    Created a site and had a menu created using manual which was linked to sub pages within the site. The menu was for specific pages not requiring access from the sites top level menu.
    The menu was working but now it is not possible to edit or replace the menu as there does not seem to be any way of adding the link to the required page. The dropdown box to the side of hyperlink stays greyed out and can't be accessed. This is only happening to links added using the menu widget under manual, ordinary text links seem to be OK.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Confirm that there are no objects overlaying the navbar. How did you change the background, from the Inspector/Page/Layout pane?

  • I am brand new to the Ipad.  I can't use ICloud unless I upgrade my 10.5 Leopard.  Is there a way to sync documents created in Pages to the IPad without using ICloud?

    Hello.  I am a newbie to the Ipad.  I am currently working with an OS 10.5 Leopard MAC.  I understand that in order to use ICloud I would need to purchase OSX Snow Leopard and OSX Lion.  I am attempting to avoid the expense and to the extent possible sync my IPad with my MAC.  I have created documents on my MAC in pages.  Is there a way to have access to those documents on the IPad without using ICloud.
    A second question concerns web browsing, sometimes you'll open up a page or image and not know how to go back to the previous page. So do I just close and reopen safari altogether or is there another way to get to the previous page.
    Thanks for any guidance you can provide.

    Actually you can use iCloud with the Mac running OS X 10.5.8. You don't sync the documents - you upload to or download them from iCloud.
    You can open a browser on your Mac - Safari is preferred - log into icloud.com, enter your username and password, click on the iWorks icon, click on the Pages section at the top - and then you can drag documents into the browser window to upload files - and you can select a file in the cloud to download to the Mac. I do this on my iMac at work running Tiger 10.4.11. It's kind of slow - and you will get a warning that you may be using a supported browser - but it works.
    In any event, you can use iOS file sharing to send the Pages docs to your iPad. you have to connect to the Mac and do this via iTunes.

    Just tap the arrows in the toolbar in Safari to go back and forth. You can open multiple pages using tabs. tap on the + sign to add another tab in Safari.
