Using javascript to redirect a form in portal to a report

Hi. I am trying to call a report or a dynamic page from a form I created. When I select the query button I want it to show the report or dynamic page based on the parameters I passed in the URL. I have the following javascript functions that get the parameters from the comboboxes.
Additional PL/SQL Code... before displaying the page.
htp.p('<script language="JavaScript">');
htp.p('function getItemInst(form,targetInst)');
htp.p('{var objname;');
htp.p(' var selectedInst;');
htp.p(' for(var j =0; j < form.length; j++)');
htp.p(' { objname = form.elements[j].name.split(".");');
htp.p(' if(objname[2] == targetInst)');
htp.p(' { selectedInst = form.elements[j].value;');
htp.p(' return selectedInst;');
htp.p(' }');
htp.p(' }');
htp.p('}');
htp.p('function getItemCip(form,targetCip)');
htp.p('{ ');
htp.p(' var objname;');
htp.p(' var selectedCip;');
htp.p(' for(var j =0; j < form.length; j++)');
htp.p(' {objname = form.elements[j].name.split(".");');
htp.p(' if(objname[2] == targetCip)');
htp.p(' { selectedCip = form.elements[j].value;');
htp.p(' return selectedCip;');
htp.p(' }');
htp.p(' }');
htp.p('}');
htp.p('</script>');
When I click the query button it uses this code:
using a query button->onclick javascript event handler
var v_inst = getItemInst(this.form, "INST");
var v_cip_course = getItemCip(this.form, "CIP_COURSE");
var exec_url = "http://"+window.location.hostname + "/pls/portal/MAJOR_APP.PROGRAMOFSTUDYSEARCHRESULTS.show?p_arg_names=p_cip_course&p_arg_values="+v_cip_course+
"&p_arg_names=p_inst&p_arg_values="+v_inst;
window.location.href=exec_url;
My problem is that it doesn't use the new url I created and go to the report. It just refreshes the form page I created. I am I missing a step or something?
Thanks ;)

Maybe you could try it like this... I saw this question answered not too long ago.

Problem with using javascript in interactive adobe form

Hi All,
I have a problem when accessing text field value which is present inside a subform using javascript.
I tried giving data.page4.sub-5.<fieldname>.rawvalue but its not working. Please provide a solution.
Thank you in Advance.

Since this question is related to JavaScript running within the Form and not the connection between the form and Web Dynpro - it really belongs in the Interactive Forms by Adobe Forum.

Problem using javascript to submit jsf form, values not submitted

Greetings!
I have a t:selectOneMenu where I want the page to be submitted when they change the selected value. At this point, I am able to get the form to submit and reload the page, which is all fine. The problem is that none of the values from the page are not set in the backing bean. I have break points on the setter methods that are not being hit.
I have tried a number of things from searching multiple forums, but here are snippets from my latest version...
<h:form>
<t:commandLink id="hiddenLink" forceId="true" value="test link"
action="#{pc_PageX.doBtnHiddenLinkAction}"></t:commandLink>
<t:selectOneMenu id="pageList_top" forceId="true" value="#{pc_PageX.ValueX}"
     onchange="jspellSync(); submitPageX();">
     <f:selectItems value="#{pc_PageX.ListX}" />
</t:selectOneMenu>
</h:form>
function submitPageX(){
     var hiddenLink = document.getElementById("hiddenLink");
     hiddenLink.click();
}Note that the <t:commandLink> is not hidden, though it will be in the final version if I can get this to work.
If I click the commandLink myself, the page is submitted with all the page values as expected. If I change the list value, thus using javascript to fire the commandLink's click event, the page is submitted with NO values.
Can anyone come up with an explanation for this behavior? Or better yet, a solution?
A couple other things I've tried...
- Not using a commandLink and using jsf's submit function -> onchange="jspellSync(); submit();"
- Clicking the link using other ways -> hiddenLink.fireEvent('onclick');
If all else fails, I'll just add a button that they have to click to submit the form.

I recall this problem in one of the ancient JSF versions. Which JSF version do you use? Do you have any room to upgrade to latest? We're using an IBM implementation of JSF, which is at version 7.0. The IBM implementation appears to be built on the JSF base 1.1.That's not an IBM JSF implementation, they do not have any one, they just have some component libraries which runs on top of some JSF implementation. RAD/WSAD ships by default with Sun JSF RI. Try upgrading to at least 1.1_02 which you can download from the aforementioned link. There's a gap of 2 years (and inherently a lot of bugfixes) compared to 1.1. If the application server used supports Servlet 2.5, you could even upgrade to the latest 1.2.
We've had other issues with the IBM implementation, which could be the cause in this case too. We've been talking about switching to MyFaces, but there is one feature of the IBM version that we like. It's basically a script collector (hx:scriptCollector) that allows us to do pre-processing on the page.As said before, IBM does not have a JSF implementation. So replacing RI by MyFaces wouldn't make any difference.

Using JavaScript to Determine a Form's Folder Name

We have an awful lot of forms, and in many cases, our custom JavaScript applies to all forms in a given folder. We would like to determine the form's folder name so that we don't have to list each and every form in a giant "IF" statement.
Has anyone figured out how to determine a form's folder using JavaScript?
Thanks!

I think the only solution to the "refresh" issue would be to somehow query the hsp_object table and grab the parent_id (which for a form is the folder ID). If anyone figures out how to query the application repository from JavaScript,that would be very, very cool.
As the database is server side and javascript is client side you would have to use something like an ajax call that passes the form id into an jsp script, the jsp script would query the repository and return the value to javascript.

Using Javascript to email a form in a workflow process

I've created an Acroform which will be routed around in a workflow process. The user will open the form, add information and hit a button which is coded in javascript usng the mailDoc function.
It works perfectly EXCEPT that each time the document is forwarded, "Adobe Acrobat Pro.pdf" gets appended to the name of the file in the email. It doesn't actually rename the file, so the file does open properly, but the email looks pretty goofy.
Example. The filename is Form14.pdf.
When the third person signs off and clicks the email button, the email is created, with the address, subject line and body of the email completed, and the document attached has the little icon and then
- Form 14.pdf - Adobe Acrobat Pro.pdf - Adobe Acrobat Pro.pdf - Adobe Acrobat Pro.pdf
Is there some way to prevent it from concatenating like this every time the document is emailed?
Thanks!!!

Using Javascript to reset a form on document load

I am trying to reset all field vaules on a acrobat form to the default values, when the form is initially loaded. I am trying to use the resetForm() method in a document level script, but not having any luck.
I have been able to reset fields after user inputs such as a button that resets the form, or a script the will reset a form prior to importing field data... but I need to ensure all data is removed from the form when the form first loads
Any ideas?

I believe you mean a document level JavaScript, Entering Document Level Scripts, since a Folder level script would require the placing of the code into one of the Acrobat Application's JavaScript folder on the user machine, Entering Folder Level Scripts. Placing the JS code as a Document Level Sept will clear the form when the form is opened. One could also use the Page Open action if additional code is added to prevent re clearing the form if part of a multi page document and one navigates back to the original page.
You should also consider turning off auto complete and auto caching of form data.

Using JavaScript to submit a form with multiple submit buttons

I am a newbie to JavaScript, so hopefully someone can answer
this for me.
On my user registration form, I have two buttons that submit
the form, 'check_availability' (to check if the username is
available) and 'register'. In my PHP script, I check which button
was pushed by checking which POST value is set,
$_POST['check_availability'] or $_POST['register'].
If I set the 'register' button to a JavaScript function that
validates the form and then submits it, how do I get my PHP script
to think 'register' was pushed?

Sorry I used my old captcha script there.
[php]
<?
session_start();
if(isset($_POST['button_name'])){
//DO SOMETHING HERE
} else {
//Add the page data
?>
[/php]

Using Javascript and ScriptUI to create a form that brings in a symbol from library

Hello everyone,
I've been trying to pull together the right info to use javascript to create a form to bring in particularsymbols from the symbol library based on the variables taken from the form. I've taken bits and pieces from various sample scripts and tried to make this work, but my problem appears when I try to use conditionals.
This is a limited version of what I want to do, but it is enough to get the point across.
1. I want to select a script that has various dropdown boxes. I would like the first dropdown to give me 3 options: 10, 13, 18
2. I would also like another drop down box that gives me three more options: single needle, double needle, and knife edge.
3. I would then like it to have an "ok" button and "Cancel" button.
4. From here when I click the ok button, a symbol is brought in from the library depending on what parameters were given to the form.
ex. If I selected 10 in the first drop down and double needle in the second, I would like "SYMBOL A" to be pulled from the library and centered on the artboard.
ex. If I selected 13 in the first drop down and double needle in the second, I would like "SYMBOL B" to be pulled from the library and centered on the artboard.
I've gotten the UI to pop up and it works as planned as well as bringing in a symbol, my problem comes when I try to incorporate conditionals and functions.
Here is my script. Please let me know what I'm doing wrong.
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var Pallette = new Window ("dialog", "Create a Shell");
Pallette.add ("statictext", undefined, "Fill Opening in Inches:");
Pallette.orientation = "row";
var myDropdown = Pallette.add ("dropdownlist", undefined, ["10", "13", "18"]);
myDropdown.selection = 1;
var myButtonGroup = Pallette.add ("group");
myButtonGroup.orientation = "column";
var btnCreate = myButtonGroup.add ("button", undefined, "OK");
MyFillSelection = myDropdown.selection
btnCreate.onClick = function () {
    if ( MyFillSelection = "13") {
               symbolRef = myDoc.symbols["SYMBOL A"];
        symbolItemRef1 = myDoc.symbolItems.add(symbolRef);
       redraw();
var btnCancel = myButtonGroup.add ("button", undefined, "Cancel");
Pallette.show ();
If anyone has any input, it would be much appreciated.
thanks,

MyFillSelection = myDropdown.selection is outside the function, so it will always read "13", nothing is making the value change.
move that line into your function and add the text property to it...MyFillSelection = myDropdown.selection.text;
then do your if comparisons, that will do it.

Reset report pagination using javascript / ajax ?

Hiho,
i have a page where i pull a ppr report from a different page using htmldb_get like described in Carls excellent examples. The first page also contains a textfield to set a where condition in the report, for examle to search a streetname..
Now i need a way to reset the pagination of the report using javascript.
Example:
I search for street_name_1 and the report returns 100 rows, 10 rows on each page. Now i use the pagination links to switch throught report pages to page 5.
Now i search for street_name_2 and the report returns 5 rows, so this would only be one page in the report. But the report pagination still is on page 5, so no results are shown. And no pagination buttons either.
What can i do to reset the pagination before i pull the report without submitting the page?
Thanks for help,
DIrk

I have similar problem with AJAX report pagination. When I click the pagination for next set of rows, it gives "undefined" error. I'm trying to call "get.clear('RP');" in the javascript function as susggested in above url, but doen't work. any examples are appreciated.
thanks,
Surya

Chained LOVs in portal using Javascript

Has anyone gotten this to work in portal forms. I have an LOV in a form based on a table and when the user selects a value in LOV 1 it should populate the LOV2 item with the corresponding values. Please note that the time it takes to refresh using the traditional chained LOV solution in portal is too inefficient and causes the page to refresh when it shouldn't have to. This should be a fairly simple task considering nearly all web sites have this simple functionality but within portal I have not been successful in implementing this.
Can anyone offer a solution?
Thanks

OK,
This is the functionality that I am looking for. Can someone tell me whether or not this is possible in portal?

How to set a form element value using javascript?

Hello,
I have been using the following two functions in AS 9.0.2 to set form values in javascript and it works correctly. However, the same code does not work in AS 10.1.2.0.2. Would appreciate if someone could let me know how to set form elements using Javascript(onchange of a field).
function set_item_value(p_field_name, p_value)
var v_index, v_full_name;
for(v_index=0; v_index<document.forms[0].length; v_index++)
v_full_name = document.forms[0].elements[v_index].name.split
if (v_full_name[2] == p_field_name)
document.forms[0].elements[v_index].value = p_value;
function get_item_value(p_field_name)
var v_index, v_full_name, v_return="";
for(v_index=0; v_index<document.forms[0].length; v_index++)
v_full_name = document.forms[0].elements[v_index].name.split
if(v_full_name[2] == p_field_name)
if(document.forms[0].elements[v_index].type != "radio")
v_return = document.forms[0].elements[v_index].value;
else
if(document.forms[0].elements[v_index].checked)
v_return = document.forms[0].elements[v_index].value;
if(v_return == " ")
v_return = "";
return v_return;
Thanks

This is not the best way to write JavaScript in Portal environment!
You can't be sure that a form is the first in the html source!
In Portal you change the order of your portlets, and also you can have several instances of the same portlet on the same page!!!
You should use qualified form and field names!
Please check the following JPDK methods:
UrlUtils.htmlFormName
HttpPortletRendererUtil.portletParameter
