Validation of values in an input field.

Hello togther,
I've created an input field with a value-selector, so that the user can choose a value from help-list. But he can also enter a value directly into the input field. Is there any "STANDRAD" method to check whtether the value which is in the input field is valid against the values from the value-selector?
I've found a standard method to check whether mandatory fields are field and the method works fine. Is there anything like this also for checking values against values from the selector?
Thanks in advance.
Greetings,
Florian

Hello Florian,
You can create an event CHECK_DATA for OnEnter event of you input field.
Then go to the Action tab and select the action type as Validation-Independent .
Hope this will work for the input field with OVS help .

Vivek

How to restrict the user to enter only numeric values in a input field

How to restrict the user to enter only numeric values in a input field.
For example,
i have an input field in that i would like to enter
only numeric values. no special characters,alphabets .
reply ASAP

Hi Venuthurupalli,
As valery has said once you select the value to be of type integer,once you perform an action it will be validated and error message that non numeric characters are there will be shown. If you want to set additional constraints like max value, min value etc you can use simple types for it.
On the project structure on left hand side under local dictionary ->datatypes->simple types create a simple type of type integer
The attribute which you are binding to value property ;make its type as simple type which you made
Hope this helps you

Default Value in Numeric Input Field in Visual Composer Application

Hi All,
I have developed a visual composer application which has a numeric input field for Hours.
It is mapped to a backend module.
We are using portal 7.31
The problem is that the deafult value of this input field is "0", but the rquirement is to display as "0.0"
The functionality has been tested with input values in decimals and works fine. The problem is when the screen first populates, that field should show "0.0" .
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi Soumya Chanda,
I don't know of an agreeable way around it. You could have a textual input, but then it doesn't have the numeric control behavior, plus you need to handle incorrect typing (alphanumeric notes).
Sorry!

Mixing Html/JSP - Is it possible to retain value in "file" input field?

I have a jsp page with the following snippet:
<% String text1 = (String)session.getAttribute("text1");
if(text1 == null) {
text1 = " "; }
//get more attributes here
%>
<form name="file" action="checkFields_images.jsp" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="text" size="15" name="text1" value="<% =text1 %>"><br>
<input type="file" name="image1" />
<br>
<input type="text" size="15" name="text2">
<br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>
...upon submission, it will go to a jsp that will check the fields for blanks or errors. If there are errors, the page will forward the user BACK to the original page, and each field that had an entry will be displayed with what the user had entered.
The way my code operates is when the user hits the submit button, the jsp page that checks the fields is also setting the values submitted in session attributes. Those of you familiar with JSP code will know what I mean.
That way when the page is redisplayed the "value" attributes of each <input> field will be set to what the user entered by way of such:
<input type="text" name="text1" value="<%=text1%>">
where <%=text1%> is a java variable set to the session attribute value for this <input> field.
Now I know that the <input type="file> field has a value attribute, but I don't believe it is something that can be set. So how do I workaround this? I just want the field to display the file name the user had selected. I've worked with mixing JavaScript and Java code, but there are certain things you can and can't do, and I'm coming up with any "can do's" for this one.
Any suggestions are appreciated
Thank You,
Love2Java

You are absolutely correct.
For security reasons, you can't specify a value for the input type="file".
Here is one suggestion, of how I would see it work in a perfect world.
- The file is uploaded and retained on the server
- You send back a page without an input type="file"
- The user fixes whatever fields they got wrong and submits again
- The server picks up the correct fields, along with the file sent with the "bad" request, and then continues as normal.
In this way, you only have to upload the file once.
Instead of regenerating the <input type="file">, it would generate something like "File already uploaded. Correct other fields"
pros:
- Don't have to worry about repopulating the input type="file"
- user only uploads the file once
cons:
- if the user wants to change the file? Maybe another link?
- must retain file on server somewhere, and find it later.
I didn't say it was easy, but it seems the most sensible approach to me.

Get Value From an input field

Hi All,
I am a newbie to ABAP Webdynpro.I would liketo know how should I get the value from an input field at runtime?
Thanks,Mukta

By reading the context attribute which bound to inputfield, you can get the value.
Say you have a node called 'MAIN_NODE' and has the attribute 'INPUT_VALUE', which is bound to the Inputfield.
DATA LO_ND_MAIN_NODE TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_NODE.
DATA LO_EL_MAIN_NODE TYPE REF TO IF_WD_CONTEXT_ELEMENT.
DATA LS_MAIN_NODE TYPE WD_THIS->ELEMENT_MAIN_NODE.
DATA LV_INP_VALUE LIKE LS_MAIN_NODE-INP_VALUE.
* navigate from <CONTEXT> to <MAIN_NODE> via lead selection
LO_ND_MAIN_NODE = WD_CONTEXT->GET_CHILD_NODE( NAME = 'MAIN_NODE' ).
* get element via lead selection
LO_EL_MAIN_NODE = LO_ND_MAIN_NODE->GET_ELEMENT( ).
* get single attribute
LO_EL_MAIN_NODE->GET_ATTRIBUTE(
    EXPORTING
      NAME = `INPUT_VALUE`
    IMPORTING
      VALUE = LV_INP_VALUE ). "LV_INP_VALUE will have the value of inputfield

But i want to see the value in the same input field
id ="gv_var". i.e if i enter the value "BSPian" in the input field and press "submit" the internal processing will be done as told by u and after that ,on the screen i want to keep that value till i end that session.
i passed a variable v_value in the inputfield value but it's not working ..

How to get the values from the input field of a table

Hello Friends
I am having table having one column as InputField and rest are the textview fields
I input the data and click the button that will add them to a node.
But what is happening is it is adding the current value to all the fields replacing other filelds.
Like suppose I am having 3 rows
In column I input 10
In column 2 input 20
In column 3 input 30
Now it is setting the value 30 to all the 3 fields.
Can any one tell me the code to set 10, 20 and 30 as different value in a node as entered by me.
Thanks

Not able to display the values in the input fields of the view

Hi All.
I am facing an unique issue.
My custom element created in my custom node getting a null value
from a Get Vendor Details RFC written in RFC.
The values are getting populated in the custom element but not coming in the
input field of the corresponding view.
Then, I wrote this code
wdContext.nodeCustom.setLeadSelection(1);
and all the output came in the input field.
Now, after a build it is not coming in the input fields of the view.
All my custom nodes are Singleton and values are coming in the custom elements
as I can print them by wdComponentApi.getMessageManager.reportSuccess(""+customnode.getField());
All my nodes are Singleton.
Please give your valuable inputs.
Regards
Kaushik Banerjee

Hi
Check the node property
initializeLeadSelection true
if not make it true , I would suggest to make a value node of the same structure as in RFC after execuation of the RFC populate the value manually.Dont bind it directly to the UI element.

How to display a value in an input field in webdynpro

I want to get a value already shown in a particular input field
i.e., have to fetch data to that input field as we enter that screen.

kindly reply if anyone knows.
Thanks and regards
suju

Hi,
First of all u have to declare one variable in the prog. with the name of the i/o box u have given in the screen.
Now in the PBO of the screen call one module.
and in that module write the code like,
if your i/p field name is INPUT_F then
MODULE assign OUTPUT.
INPUT_F = 'XYZ'.
ENDMODULE.
Here u can assign the value by fatching through the DB also.
I think this will help u.

Changing value of one input field based on other.

Hello All,
I am having this interesting situation with changing a value of a INPUT form in jsp based on another INPUT.
Lets say my form has 3 INPUT variables.
1. YEAR (COMBOBOX) (using the SELECT OPTION)
2. MONTH (COMBOBOX)(using the SELECT OPTION)
3. TEXT
If the user sets the year to 2003, I want to show all 12 months. But if the user sets the year to 2004, I want to show only the month of Jan and then not allow the user to change the value.
I also need both these values to go as form input when the user hits submit.
After reading the JSP/Javascript issues other people are having with regard to accessing variables across these two(i.e jsp and javascript), it looks like ther is no easy way to achieve this using
"onChange=setValue()" on the YEAR field.
What would be the best way to do this?
Thanks,
Chhaya

u can use javascript funtion
u can pass day month and year wiich will return false if wrong date was selected like leap year,selecting 31 feb etc.
function validatedate(dd,mm,yy)
          cday=dd
          aday=dd
          cmonth=mm

leapyearcal=cyear%400
