Using radio buttons to set the value of a text field

I have a set of three radio buttons on a form (a performance evaluation). If I select the "1" button, I want 1 to populate in the text field. The same goes for "2" and "3"
I have not been able to code the buttons correctly for this scenario, and can't figure out how to do it.
From a previous post, I was able to get check boxes to do what I want, but they won't really work because I can't set them so that only one back may be selected.
Can this be done?
Thanks!

The information for this specific case isn't anywhere. The best that you can do is understand what triggers each of the events, then ask yourself which of those triggers are pertinent to your current issue.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/livecycle/es/LiveCycle_Designer_Scripting_Basics.pdf ...
The above link contains a great deal of information regarding how to use scripts within Livecycle Designer. The section that you would be most interested in in order to learn about the available events can be found under "Events >> List of Events".
You needed to use the initialize event so that the text field would be updated when the document was opened. This ensure that the text field has the value of the default radio button when it is opened for the first time.
You needed to use the change event so that, when the use selects a different radio button, the text field is updated with the new value.
That's about it. That PDF file that I link to above is a bit long, but it's a great place to get a good grasp of the basics of scripts.
If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. =) Have a good one.

Using Auto Suggest To Set The Value Of Multipe Form Fields

I would like to use the Spry 1.5 Preview Auto Suggest widget
to provide the value for multiple form fields based on the row the
user selects in the auto suggestion data set. I've placed an
example of what I want to do here:
http://www.brucephillips.name/spry/Spry_P1_5_Preview/autosuggest/autosuggestMultipleFields .cfm
It appears that when the user clicks on one of the rows in
the auto suggestion data set, the current row for the data set is
not updated but remains the default (first row in the data set).
Therefore, if you have a spry:detailregion that uses that data set,
the values for that detail region are from the first row in the
data set and not the row the user selected.
Is it possible to set the current row of the auto suggest
data set to the row the user clicked on in the auto suggestion data
set so that the spry:detailregion will have the values from the row
the user clicked on?
I had previously modified the Spry 1.4 Auto Suggest widget to
do this. See:
http://www.brucephillips.name/blog/index.cfm/2006/11/6/Modifing-Sprys-Auto-Suggest-Widget- to-Bind-Users-Selection-to-A-Form
Thank you for any assistance.

Cristian: thank you for the reply. I understand your concern
about the user changing the auto suggest field after updating the
complimentary fields. I think that could be handled through user
instruction. Additionally, instead of using form fields to hold the
complimentary data I could use non-editable paragraphs.
I hope the change is not too difficult. I think this
modification would make the auto suggest widget even more useful.
For example think about a product auto suggest. User starts to type
in the name of the product, selects the full product name from the
auto suggestions, and now the page can immediately show in a
spry:detailregion all the product details.
Thanks again for considering my request. I really appreciate
all the work the Spry team is doing. I'm looking forward to the
official release of Spry.

I need to get the value of a text field that is located in another page JSP

I need to get the value of a text field that is located in another page JSP. How do I do that?

Well you see, I have a page at angelfire.com, which
does not support JSP. I want to call a script located
at mycgisever and then, when pressing a link on the
former page, the JSP page is loaded, and the script
get the value from the text field on the OTHER page.
Is this possible?I know nothing about cgi. But that should not prevent me from understanding what can and cannot be done, assuming cgi is sort of comparable with jsps.
I'm unable to understand your description clearly. Try to explain it better. Give precise steps that you intend to follow and I should be able to help you further.
So you have a page1.
You hit submit from page1.
That goes to the cgiserver.
From the cgiserver, programmatically load up the jsp.
search this for the text field.
Display it on your page2.
Is that what you are trying to do?
BTW, won't be able to help you with cgi scripting at all. Can help with Java and Jsp.

Setting the focus to a text field on a subform in the form initialize event.

I have a form that checks the rawValue of a text field to determine whether or not the focus should be set on a particular text field. Here is the logic:
if(txtEmailVisible.rawValue == "visible")
frmEmailData.presence = "visible";
xfa.host.setFocus(xfa.form.NEDA.main.frmEmailData.txtEmailBody);
else
frmEmailData.presence = "hidden";
For some reason the focus isn't going to that object, instead it is still going to the first field in the tabbing order. Am I calling this in the wrong event, which is causing the tabbing order to over ride my setFocus call?
Thanks,
Chad

Try using setTimeout for this from the DocReady event.
app.setTimeout("xfa.host.setFocus(xfa.form.NEDA.main.frmEmailData.txtEmailBody);
", 250);
There are several occasions where code must be executed after init/formReady/DocReady, etc. has been completed. This is one of them.

Sum the values of a text field in a tabular form using JavaScript

Hi Folks.
OK, I put my hands up. I don't know Java script but I'm picking up the basics and I WANT to learn.
Here's my situation.
I have a tabular form which has lots of Standard Report Columns and ONE text field.
I want to sum the values entered in the text field, real time, using Java Script without the need to have a round trip to the database.
I'm guessing this will involve some kind of loop. Once I have that SUM figure I will store it in a hidden item and it will be used for validation when the user submits the form.
If anyone can give me a simple Java Script to do this, or point me in the direction of one, I'd be very grateful.
Many thanks.
Dogfighter.

Hi Arie.
Thanks for the link.
That's a great start,
What I've got working so far is the following...
<script type="text/javascript">
function f_calculate_delta(p_this,p_rownum)
var amt = $x(p_this).value;
alert (amt);
var display_item_to_set = 'f08_'+ p_rownum
$x(display_item_to_set).innerHTML = amt
</script>
This is working fine.
Where I'm stuck at the moment is how I can 'get' the value of another cell in the same row. They have all been set up using the APEX_ITEM API with their own unique IDs.
I will continue looking but if you could give me a steer, that would be great.
Many thanks
Simon
PS. APEX 3.1
PPS. Trying to get the value of another row using...
var display_item_to_get = 'f04_'+ p_rownum
var expected_amt = $x(display_item_to_get).value
PPPS. Also tried...
var display_item_to_get = 'f04_'+ p_rownum
var expected_amt = $v(display_item_to_get)
and
var display_item_to_get = 'f04_'+ p_rownum
var expected_amt = $v(display_item_to_get).value
None of which are working at the moment.

How to Populate a drop down list using the values of a text field?

Hi,
I wanted to Populate the items of my drop down list according to the value entered in the textfield above it?
also the value of list remains consistent in other rows also where i am using the drop down list field.
Please Try to help me in this query.
Thanks in Advance!!!
I am using Javascript in adobe version ES 8.2.

Part II:
If you have other items for your droplist(s) that are to appear in addition to the "variable language" entered by a user you can add that to the script. For example in addition to the Party1 and Party2 name appearing in my droplist I also want the list to have an option for a user to select: The parties jointly. I add this to the script:
this.addItem(Party1.rawValue);
this.addItem(Party2.rawValue);
this.addItem ("The parties jointly");
If you have trouble making it work, post a bit of your actual form requirements.

Setting the value of a hidden field in a Visual Web jsf page

Hey All,
I am new to jsf and need some help with the following. I have written a method in the java portion of the jsf page that will get the selection(s) from a listbox and return them as a string. I need to assign the value of that string to a hidden field in the jsp portion of the page, so that I can pass the string as a parameter to a servlet. I have tried the following code in the "button_action", in the java portion of the jsf page, to assign the value of the string, returned from method, to the hidden field:
hiddenField.setValue(string);
This is not working. Any and all help on this matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Here is the tag for the hidden field when the "hidden field" component is added from the pallette, I addded the "value" and "id". The name of the class is ReportStandard, which extends the AbstractPageBean.
<webuijsf:hiddenField binding="#{ReportStandard.utilSelHF}" id="utilSelHF" value="#{ReportStandard.utilParams}"/>This is how I am calling the hidden field in the servlet:
utils = request.getParameter("form1:utilSelHF_field");Here is the code for the button_action:
public String runReport_button_action() {
this.utilParams = get_utilSelection();
return "sRptrslts";
}

How do you set the format of a text field

I have a form with a text field that I want to set to either date format or number format depending on the selection of a radio button. Is there a way to do that via javascript?
var f = getField("txtAgeDOB1");
var initVal = f.value;
if (initVal == "Age") {
f.format = number;
} else {
f.format = date;

One can set the format of the field to "None" and then by checking the value of a check box or some other logical test make a decision as to what format and value to fill the text box with. One can use the util.printf, util.printx, or the util.printd method to format the value.

How to set the value in the xml node.

Hi
I am having the application PDF which can be submitted by user using the button. while submitting
i am using below code to set the value in the xml node.
xfa.data.assignnode("employee.id","123",0):
So its generating the xml like below.
<employee>.
<id>123</id>.
</name>
</employee>
Now i need to generate the xml like below.
<employee id= "123" >
</Name>
</employee>
So how to set/create the id node like above?
Advance Thanks.
Regards,
Dhiyane

Hi Dhiyane,
You will have to set the contains property if the id node to "metaData", that is;
xfa.data.assignNode("employee.id","123",0);
xfa.data.employee.id.contains = "metaData";
Very clumsy if you have a number of them, in which case you might want to look at using E4X.
Good luck

Setting the value of rich inputtext in jdeveloper 11g 11.1.2.3.0

Hi,
I am trying to set the value of input text in my .jspx page to the value of a command link. On the click of the link the value of the link needs to be displayed in the input text without having to type it.
I have created an action method for the command link where I get the value from the command link and set it in the input text. I see in my log it is getting the current row from the command link but nothing is being set in the input text. Following is my code for the command link action method:
This is where I am getting the value from the command link:
                DCControlBinding cb;
                cb = (DCControlBinding) bindings.get("ALL_DETAILS_ITEM");
                 System.out.println("cb " + cb);
                Row currentRow;
                currentRow = cb.getCurrentRow();
                System.out.println("currentRow " + currentRow);
                String EMAIL_ADDRESS = null;
                if ((currentRow.getAttribute("EMAIL_ADDRESS"))!= null)
                   EMAIL_ADDRESS = (currentRow.getAttribute("EMAIL_ADDRESS")).toString();
                   System.out.println(" EMAIL_ADDRESS " + EMAIL_ADDRESS);
                       }This is where I am trying to set the input text value(P_EMAIL_ADDRESS) to the command link value(EMAIL_ADDRESS)
                    Map params = operationBinding.getParamsMap();
                    String P_EMAIL_ADDRESS = null;
                if ((currentRow.getAttribute("P_EMAIL_ADDRESS"))== null)
                    currentRow.setAttribute("P_EMAIL_ADDRESS", EMAIL_ADDRESS );
                     System.out.println("P_EMAIL_ADDRESS " + P_EMAIL_ADDRESS);
                       params.put("P_EMAIL_ADDRESS", P_EMAIL_ADDRESS);
                       params.put("DISPLAY_TYPE", DISPLAY_TYPE);
                       Object result = operationBinding.execute();
            }I also have set a partial trigger of the input text to the command link Id in the UI.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Sal

This is overly complicated. you post the code of you command link?
should work without any java code by setting a property listener which the from value set to the value of the link and the to property to the of the input text.

How to set the value of an radio button using set_radio_button_property

I'd like to set the value of an radio button dynamically, depending of the situation.
(=> the value which the object returns to the radio group)
Means: the 'radio button value' of my object 'rb_1' shall be 1, in other circumstances 99 and so on.
Is it possible to set this value at runtime ?

the problem is as Gerd wrote:
there are two or more radio buttons in an option group.
Their value depends on the text objext t_field.
If t_field is "car" the value of radio button 1 shall be 75, button 2: 90 and button 3 115.
if t_field is "bus" the value of radio button 1 shall be 250, button 2: 275 and button 3 300 and so on.
My problem is to set the value of the radio buttons at runtime after choosing/typing the value of the text field t_field.

Getting the selected row (selected using radio button in dataTable)

I have problem getting the selected row.
If not mistaken, the way used in BalusC's website sets the value to the backing bean using the valueChangeListener.
Can I set the value to the DTO instead?
using something like
private boolean selected;
public void setSelectedItem(ValueChangeEvent e){
this.selected = true;
} If i use this way it throws NoSuchMethodException. I have no idea why. I did this for the checkbox and it works fine. I don't know why it doesn't work for radio buttons.

The DataTable is below :
<h:panelGrid columns="1" columnClasses="table_align">
          <t:dataTable id="table1" value="#{sysMgrBean.locationList}"
               var="location" rows="5" styleClass="table" headerClass="tableHeader"
               rowClasses="tableRowOdd, tableRowEven" width="500">
               <t:column>

                    <h:selectOneRadio value="#{location.selected}"
                         onfocus="dataTableSelectOneRadio(this);"
                         onclick="enableInput(this.form,this)" valueChangeListener="#{location.setSelectedItem}">
                         <f:selectItem itemValue="" value="true" />

How to use Radio Buttons in SAP BI 7 for a set of three fields?

Dear SAP Gurus,
We are using SAP BI 7. We need to use Radio button to select one field name (out of a set of three fields) which
appeared on selection screen.
The scenario is; we have three fields
1) Field Name A
2) Field Name B
3) Field Name C
Now, we need to select one field(using Radio button) from the above and later the report related to the above
selected field should be displayed.
The three reports will be as follows:
1) Report A
2) Report B
3) Report C
if Field Name A is selected then Report A will be displayed,
if Field Name B is selected then Report B will be displayed and
if Field Name C is selected then Report C will be displayed.
To display the report we have two cases;
1) There will be a common selection screen and all the three reports will come in single workbook but in seperate worksheet.
2) There will be a common selection screen and all the three reports will come in same worksheet, one after the other.
Is it possible to create the report in this manner, if yes, please suggest the steps.
Regards,
DV.

I think you would just use commands to do the following:
1. Hide report Analysis Item 2 and Analysis Item 3 if the 1st button was pushed.
2. Hide report Analysis Item 1 and Analysis Item 3 if the 2nd button was pushed.
3. Hide report Analysis Item 1 and Analysis Item 2 if the 3rd button was pushed.
Hope that helps...

Can I use a inputHidden for javascript values that doesn't set the value?

I have a hiddenInput field for each row in a datatable so I can restore default values to a date field with a javascript function. I am getting conversion errors because I don't have the right setters in the backing object - and I really don't want to put them there - but I don't want the tag to set the values! Is there any way to just set a hidden value somewhere for each row of a datatable but not have it try to set the value? Thanks in advance!

I just realised that won't work because all the HTML tags will have the same name, whereas I need the dynamically generated suffix that a dataTable assigns to every element in the row i.e. '_id34', so I can reference the value in the javascript and compare it to entered values. Any more ideas? I am having huge memory problems when I'm submitting my form too, using up 2GB of mem and then dying! I'm not sure what's causing it, because it doesn't get as far as my action method code before it dies! It works for smaller tables but I need to be able to handle ~20 users with tables 4x the size I can process now without running out of memory :( Any help would be really really appreciated!!
