Using facelets and javascript in dynamic regions

Hello
I'm using JDeveloper 11g 11.1.1.4.0.
In the JDeveloper's documentation I found that there is the best parctice to use facelets.
Now, I have next problem.
I use dynamic region iside xhtml (facelets) page. Inside that dynamic region there is a view (jsff).
The problem is that I can't use any custom JavaScript in that jsff.
I tried next thing:
            <trh:script id="trhs1">
                <af:resource type="javascript">
                  testm = function (event) {
                  alert('qqq');
                </af:resource>
           </trh:script>
<af:clientListener method="testm" type="dblClick"/>If that task-flow is placed inside jspx (not facelets) page, then all works.
If that task-flow is placed inside xhtm (facelets) page, I have an error from browser that javascript's 'testm' method is not defined.
I checked source code of the result html-page, and my javascript code really doesn't exists there.
I can fix it by moving javascript code from the taskflow's jsff to surrounding xhtml page or using jspx page, but, maybe, there is another solution?

Thank for replay, Shay
I found that in Web User Interface Developer's Guide for Oracle ADF, 2 Getting Started with ADF Faces, Section 2.4, "Creating a View Page":
Best Practice: Use Facelets to take advantage of the following:
The Facelets layer was created specifically for JSF, which results in reduced overhead and improved performance during tag compilation and execution.
Facelets is considered the primary view definition technology in JSF 2.0.
Some future performance enhancements will only be available with Facelets
Now I have facelets page with dynamic region, it works.
I've decided to use facelets because of the forthcoming JDeveloper with JSF 2.0 and for performance improvements described above.
Do you think it's better to use jspx?
I have not found any limitations for facelets in Web User Interface Developer's Guide for Oracle ADF and Fusion Developer's Guide for Oracle ADF

Using CSS and Javascript to display a div with flash in it, mozilla reloads the flash file!

I am using CSS and Javascript to display a div with an
embedded flash object in it. Mozilla Firefox reloads the flash file
when the div is displayed! (I dont want this to happen, as it's
unexpected functionality, my expectation would be that the flash
file would not change it's state at all, and would remain in
whatever state it was left in.)
I was wondering if anyone has come across this issue and is
there something I can do to prevent this from occurring?
To be more specific, I have a single HTML page with 8 flash
files embedded in it (yeah I know, it's a bit much). I am then
using CSS and Javascript to display (via a numbered link (with an
id)) an equivalent numbered div tag containing the flash file.
Mozilla Firefox reloads the flash object that is in the div.
Internet Explorer will not do this and will instead, load the flash
object only upon initial view of the flash object. All subsequent
links (in IE) will NOT reload the flash object on the page. I'm
guessing this is some kind of difference in the flash player as an
Active X object and the plugin, or is it just IE being clever? Or
am I way off?
Anyway, here is the code...

Error using java and javascript

I have a jsp page that links to a bean and is working fine (getting data from the database).
On a html form I have a button with a picture that fires off javascript when clicked:
<BUTTON TYPE=reset onclick=showinfo('<%=index%>')>
<IMG SRC="http://localhost:8080/Portal/Images/q2.bmp" ALT="Info">
</BUTTON>
The javascript function just opens a new window and displays the text sent in:
<Script Language=JavaScript>
function showinfo(arrayindex)
InfoWin=window.open("","InfoWin","width=345,height=220");
InfoWin.document.write(arrayindex);
return false;
</Script>
Well in the above example index is a number (pulled from the database using a java bean and javascript converts it into a string then the function displays it correctly. If I replace <%=index%> with regular text it works fine as well(because java isn't used to pull data)! The problem occurs when I retrieve text data from the database and send it to the function. The web page gives errors about a nonterminating string. But I can move the code to somewhere else on the form(as long as I don't send it to java script) and it will print the text to the screen. I can also view the source of the web page and the html shows the text from the data base as if I hard coded the text into the javascript!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This must be a bug between java and javascript!
-can pass numbers(from a database) between the two
-can't pass text (from a database)between the two
Any info would help!

Found the problem myself!
I am using an odbc connection to msaccess and the spaces in the text was messing things up!
After taking out the spaces it worked again.

Using facelets and Visual web jsf frameworks together

I am developing a new jsf application and I wanted to make the page navigation simpler like making the content pages independently using woodstock components and including them in the main template page.
I have downloaded Facelets support plugin for netbeans and installed it. I have created a new project using the wizard and i specified the two (facelets and visual web jsf) as frameworks for use. But I failed to leverage my application with facelets because I don't know how to use woodstock components with facelets.
I am new to jsf and i want the woodstock visual components. Can't I use facelets then?
Plz help.

I managed to find a workaround. Thought i should share it with those who are faced with a similar issue.
I found that a bug report had been placed in the past with Apache Dev. However, they had said that they would not modify their logic because the servlet container spec requires it (even though isapi_redirector is only a connector and not a container). They said that there is no way for the isapi_redirector to differentiate between /foo/WEB-INF when foo is a context and when foo is just a sub-directory of the ROOT web application. So, the general consensus was to err on the side of safety and risk blocking a few requests that are valid.
However, this causes a serious issue for those using NetBeans JSF Visual Web Projects. Hence, I created my own flavour of isapi_redirector by modifying the code such that this check is not performed and leaving the onus of checking on Tomcat.
For those who are interested, the simplest way to go about this would be to force the function uri_is_web_inf (in jk_isapi_plugin.c ) to always return FALSE.

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.

Using CASE WHEN THEN in dynamic Region Source area

Hi all,
I've been knocking my head around on this one for a while. Hope someone can show me some guidance. So far, the SQL Query in the Region Source works ok except after the THEN ''||'LINK'||'' . All text between the single quotes displays, and not just the hyperlink LINK. (My goal is to this simple test working, then go back an substitute in APP_ID, Page#, SESSION variables.) But I'm stuck with this problem. Searched the forum but this is as far as I got. Below is the code I'm using in the Region Source area. Perhaps a region attribute setting is needed but I'm unsure. Thanks for any assistance. -Mike

All text between the single quotes displays, and not just the hyperlink LINK.Not clear from this what the problem is. It appears to me that LINK is all of the "text between the single quotes". What do you mean by "all text"? (An example on apex.oracle.com is a good way to resolve such ambiguities...)
The usual cause of unexpected results when the separation of concerns is breached and HTML is directly generated in report queries is having the Display Text As report column attribute wrongly set. Ensure it is Standard Report Column rather than the default Display as Text (escape special characters).

Remember Login using cookies and javascript

Hello all,
This is an urgent request. Pls reply asap.
I have two jsps one in English and other in french. I need to implement a functionality to remember the username in both these jsps. I have a function written in javascript to check if the "remember me" checkbox is enabled and then remember the user name. But it is not working as expected. It remembers in one jsp and if i go to french jsp all the info is lost.
Can you pls help me? Sample code would help.
I guess the cookie works only for the jsps under certain folder path say en/jsp/.. and fr/jsp/..

How to use Lazy and Eager loading dynamically

Hi
I am using JPA.I have a table which has one to many realtionship with another table. I want lazy loading by default and eager loading in a speciific case.
Can we change this fetch type at the time of query?
Thanks
Sateesh

In EclipseLink 2.1 there is also a LoadPolicy that allows a relationship to be loaded on a query.
query.setHint("eclipselink.load-group.attribute", "d.employees");
The difference between it and fetch, is that it is loaded normally (or as configured) not fetch joined.

Make a read-only text field open by using button and javascript

Hello
I have a form with text fields that I will pre-populate with data. The text fields will be read-only by default. I want to make it so that when a user wants to make edits, he will need to click on a button and in turn, the text field's background will turn gray and he can make edits to the text field. I can already make the background turn gray but I cannot make the text field open.
This is the code that will run after the button is clicked:
color.ltGray = new Array("G", 0.75);
this.getField('TestField').fillColor = color.ltGray;
this.getField('TestField').access = "open";
The text field's background turns gray but it is still read-only. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Dynamic regions and taskflow in an adf library 11g

Hi,
I am facing a small issue. I have a an adf view project that uses an ADF Library containing a task flow. This view project has the following.
1. A main page (with a splitter panel) that has two buttons (showpage1 and showpage2 as dynamic region links) which display a message from either of these pages in a dynamic region in the page. These two pages have their separate bounded task flows.
This works great, i can click on either of these buttons and the dynamic region displays the default views of these task flows one at a time.
2. When i add yet another button for a bounded task flow that comes from the above-mentioned adf library things break. Now i am able to only display the view from the 3rd taskflow by clicking the corresponding 3rd button. Clicking on showpage1 and showpage2 buttons do not show corresponding taskflows/views.
I can send you my sample project right away if you wish.
Thanks,
The only difference seems to be that the following info. is added in web.xml when I start using the adf library's task flow.
<filter>
<filter-name>ADFLibraryFilter</filter-name>
<filter-class>oracle.adf.library.webapp.LibraryFilter</filter-class>
</filter>
<filter-mapping>
<filter-name>ADFLibraryFilter</filter-name>

Issue with refresh of task flow in dynamic region

Hi All,
I am using Jdeveloper version 11.1.1.6. In my fusion application I am facing an issue with the task flow refresh in the dynamic region. In my application, I have one task flow in which the side navigation command links are there and on the right side it has a dynamic region which is used to display the respective task flows on click of navigation links. Now two of the links actually call the same task flow in dynamic region but for different purpose. One for creating a record and another one for modifying the record. The default activity of that task flow has a page fragment that has couple of fields. One a drop down and another one a text field for searching the accounts against which the record is to be created or modified. On click of the navigation link, I set the task flow id to be displayed and refresh the dynamic region. Now the issue is with those two links which shows the same task flow. Let's say I searched for a record by putting some value in input text and then went on to modify flow using the modify navigation link. Then the value that I entered in search input text in the create flow stays and does not go away. I found out the cause for the issue and this is happening because of the immediate = true on the navigation command links. Now I cannot remove that because of the obvious reason that then it will start throwing exceptions for the mandatory fields when I am in middle of any flow. Is there any way to achieve it.
Please help as this is quite urgent. I can also upload the sample application if anyone needs it.
Regards
Ajay

try to put RefreshCondition in the pageDef file for that particular task Flow and try to make that condition to true only when you switch between edit or add. While switching, make sure that the mapped bean properties should also point to respective values i.e. either empty for new or holds some value for edit.
So, when ever the above condition returns true, task flow gets refreshes and it will holds only the current values not the old values.
i hope this will resolve your issue.

Custom Tags Using Facelets

I am trying to simplify a lot of pages by using Facelets and custom taglibs that are just .xhtml pages with other Standard JSF components inside them. My problem is not really related to that, but it gives a bit of background info: What I am trying to do is simplify the naming of binding and value attributes by trying to concatenate Strings to form a reference to a managed bean/property.
I am trying to do something like this:
<c:set var="componentVal" value="'#{formBinding}.#{formName}.#{componentName}'" />
<c:set var="componentBind" value="'#{beanBinding}.#{formName}.#{componentName}'" />
<h:inputText id="#{id}" value="#{componentVal}" binding="#{componentBind}" size="#{size}" />This comes after iterations of trying to just concatenate the bound variables (formBinding, formName, and componentName are defined earlier). Is this possible in JSF or am I barking up the wrong tree? I am trying to use this solution because we have one session-bound managed bean with different components for different tabs on the screen, and are accessed via a map, which makes the names quite long, and they only give us 17" monitors here, so, aside from making it cleaner, I will actually get to see what I am doing without scrolling all over the place.
Thanks for any and all help/advice.

Would you be able to post some example code?
Sure. Here is a simple test. If by some miracle that actually runs without error, you can find a .NET example in the documentation
<cfset str = createObject("java", "java.lang.String").init("Test this")>

When SSO is disabled for the application, everything goes well. But when SSO is active, the page loads a lot slower, and the IE browser always shows the error icon when any component tries to execute Javascript.
Any ideas about this issue?

Thanks a Lot in advance.
Have a nice day.

It is simpler to do from server side as follows. Place below line
inside Page_Load event of any portal component:
Write(this.Request.Cookies.Get("MYSAPSSO2").Value);
