Web Dynpro & case sensitive selection of Adobe Forms

Hi Community
how can I solve this issue:
I have a Web Dynpro View with a button. Clicking this button generates a Adobe form and displays it.
So long everything's fine.
Here's my problem:
There are 4 different case sensitive forms in dependence of the user's selection. How can I solve this?
The form is assigned to the view via layout, so do I have to create 4 views,related to the amount of forms? And additionally the pdf's are displayed in dialog windows, so do I have to create 4 windows additionally where I have to embed a view for each of them?
Is there any other way to solve it? It looks for me like a not very nice solution.
Thanks in advance,
Tan

Hi Tan,
Solutions that i am proposing may not be the best solution but you need to take a call on the best one:
Solution 1 :
1. Try Creating only one view and one window for pop up ( in addition to your existing view with button )
2. in the view add an interactive form and bind it to one of the form.
3. in WDDOMODIFYVIEW method , depending on the situation try to change the mapping to this interactive form
4. This embedded view in the pop up window is always called, only based on the conditions the adobe forms changes.
Solution 2:
1. in your view add 4 Interactive forms , bind them to different nodes as per its mapping requirement
2. create 4 Visibility context attributes , bind them with each of the forms
3. depending on the condition , hide or make visible the adobe forms.
4. show this view in the pop up window.
My suggestion would be to go with Solution 2 , since it does not involve dynamic modifications at runtime.

Web Dynpro context field limitation for the form

Hello,
I have created a Web Dynpro with the context fields for Adobe form data from a structure (about 51 fields). When the form is created with reference to the context, the context is not transferred to the Adobe form.
Similarly created another Web Dynpro context with only 2 fields from the structure for Adobe data, in such case the context fields are transferred to the Adobe form.
Any limitation on the number of fields to be transferred from Web Dynpro Context to the Adobe form?
NOTE: Using ABAP Web Dynpro.
Thanks,
Anjali

Hello,
I think I found the issue. The structure I was using had many fields with data type declared has STRING (with no definite length), in such cases the context is not copied over to the form.
After modifying the structure fields, with appropriate length data elements, the same structure fields are carried over from Web Dynpro Context to the form.
Any idea why such limitation is there for the structure field length?
Thanks,
Anjali

InteractiveForm UI Element in Web Dynpro Java - Image not displayed on form

Hello Experts,
Using: NetWeaver Developer Studio 7.0.1_06; Adobe Livecycle Designer 8.1.
I have an image "image.png" in my src/mimes/components/com.mm.InteractiveFormComp folder within my web dynpro java project.
I load the image into my context in wdDoInit method in the comp controller:
wdContext.currentContextElement().setImage("image.png");
In the interactiveform I have an ImageField on the form and have set its properties as follows:
Field - URL = http:[host]:[port]/webdynpro/dispatcher/InteractiveFormComp/src/mimes/components/com.mm.InteractiveFormComp/image.png
Field - Embed Image Data = "checked"
Binding - Default Binding = Image
However, no image ever shows up on the form. I have also been through many threads in the forums but havent found a solution. Can anyone please assist me?

What kind of data types in Web Dynpro can be bound to Interactive Form?

Hello
Apparently it is not possible to bind a Web Dynpro Context variable of type boolean to a checkbox in an interactive form. We get the PDF Document Render Exception until the data type is changed to string, then the generation seems to work. Does anyone know what data types in Web Dynpro other than String can be bound to an Interactive Form Document? Is there any information about this in help.sap.com/adobeforums.com/elsewhere? I have researched a bit, but couldn't get a general statement on this topic.
Thank you for your help!
Kind regards
Bettina Hepp

Hi,
You can Bind the Boolean type of webdynpro to the CheckBox in Adobe Interactive Form.
Just define the value Attribute in the Context of type Boolean and bind the Checkbox in Aif with this attribute.
Sample Code:
if (wdContext.currentContextelement.reason == true)
ur validations.....

Web URL case sensitive

I am using iPlanet as my app server & web server. My URLs are seems to be case sensitive. How could I eliminate this?. My OS is Windows.
The actual folder name in windows in "AA", which in in the doc folder of iPlanet.
while accessing
http://localhost:81/AA/index.jsp, its working but
http://localhost:81/aa/index.jsp is not working.
Whats the prob.? How could I eliminate this?

domain names are not case sensitive.
the path after can be. I believe this depends on the server's file system. Windows machines are not case sensitive, so the path for a server on a Windows PC is usually not, but Unix system are case sensitive in the file system, so the path for a server on Unix is as well.
However, the general rule is to always define domain names in all lower case (they are case insensitive anyway) and to assume case sensitivity for the path in the URL. Case insensitive servers/file systems won't care, and case senstive ones will be correct.

Web Dynpro table row selection

All,
I have a table that I have built from a Bapi return after a search method within my application. However, I display the table but when I select a row in the table all the results disappear. The table skeleton is still there however.
Also I know the results are still there (I did not invalidate the node) because when I change the display results number the table is populated again with the row highlighted that I just selected. This tell me that the row is correctly selected so I do not understand why the elements disappear when I select a new row.
Has anyone seen this before and/or know what I should do to keep this from happening.
regards,
Clint

Clint,
Are you setting visible row count ( visibleRowCount) to the table on your selection() . Check that one?
I never seen that kind of behaviour. Check your table size, whenever it disappears from the table.

How to work with case sensitive select quiry

hi
i have developped a ztable and filled the table programatically. like bellow
stdid stdname(non key)
001    ramu
002    somu
003    RAJU
when i write select quiry on this table like
select *
from zstudent
into table itab
where stdname = 'ramu'.
i found no records in itab.
i also tried with
select *

into table itab
where stdname = 'RAMU'.(by giving where filed in capital)
but i found no records in itab.
when i tryied with
select *
from zstudent
into table itab
where stdname = 'RAJU'.
i found the record in itab.
as per my analysis if database is updated with capital letters,then only select is working
but how to make the fist two select querys to be worked out.without modifying database entries

hi,
DATA: BEGIN OF wa,
        name1 LIKE zss_test-name1,
      END OF wa.
data: itab like table of wa.
wa-name1 = 'raju'.
insert zss_test from wa.
Then, the db has the following entries:
RAM

raju
when i write select quiry on this table like
select *
from zss_tab
into table itab
where name1 = 'raju'.
i found one record in itab.
i also tried with
select *
from zss_tab
into table itab
where name1 = 'RAJU'.(by giving where field in capital)
but i found no records in itab, since there is no such record.
Please check now..
It is working fine only...
somewhere your insert logic may be wrong..

How to display case sensitive elements in an adobe interactive form

Hi Experts,
I'm not sure if this is the correct section for my problem or if I should post it in Web Dynpro section...
Out of an Web Dynpro Component I'm starting an Adobe Interactive Forms and filling it's elements by Web Dynpro Context Nodes. So long everything's fine.
Now I need to display some elements depending on cases of my Web Dynpro.
In other words for example:
if x = 1 show some elements in my interactive form,
if x = 2 don't show them but show other elements
and so on....
Is there any function in interactive forms to realize that?
I had a similar problem before, depending on Web Dynpro cases different Forms are executed and displayed as shown here
[Re: Web Dynpro & case sensitive selection of Adobe Forms] but in this case I need to handle with the elements of my interactive forms.....
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Tan

Hi,
back again, had to handle other issues, sorry.
Just to get a little more concrete. The condition depends on the context node attributes. So if an attribute is initial, it's field should not been shown, if it's not initial, it should ne shown. There are 6 context attributes and therefore 6 fields in the form. How can I get the attributes' value?
And can I put them into the same subform or do I have to create 7 (6 conditions + blank-condition) subforms?
I put the fields (textfield and context node value) that should be shown depending on conditions in a subform. So how can I adress this subform?
I'm not so familiar with JavaScript, so please help me. I need something like:
if (context_node_attribute X is initial) {
subform_1.presence = "hidden" ;
I tried it with
if ( ARB_STUNDEN.rawValue != null) {
Beratungsstunden.presence = "hidden" ;
but it didn't work....
Thanks,
Tan

Is there a simple way to incorporate web dynpro applications.............

.......using Adobe Interactive forms with Guided procedures??
Hi all,
Sorry the question was so long I had to continue it.
So here is what I'm asking in detail. The scenario is to be able to incorporate an Adobe Interactive form (online and offline) in a guided procedure. Now, from my experience I think a guided procedure doesn't display a pdf document during the workflow process unless it consumes a web dynpro application which has an adobe form embedded within it. In this case I want the user to be able to download the adobe form from a process initiated by the guided procedure. 1) The user should be able to save the adobe form and fill it in offline. 2) Then the user can submit the form for approval (again a step in GP also), 3) if the form is approved the GP should inform the user and have the other relevant fields of the form filled in by an RFC invokation. 4) The user can see the new form. Steps 3) and 4) are no problem. Its the in between approval step that is posing a problem. How do you tackle the part of filling in the form and re-submitting it to a web Dynpro app that will fill in the required fields IF and ONLY IF the form is approved as part of the workflow??
Any tips or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Kunal.
