Application Express :: 4.2 - Changing Link Column From ROWID To ID?
May 3, 2013
I have a report linked to a form. The link column is currently ROWID and I want to change it to the Primary Key of the DB table, which is called ID.
I have done this before on a previous report/form where that ID was a display column and it works fine. Now I'm trying to copy what I did, which is this:
On the report page, go to Interactive Report attributes, scroll down to Link Column, and for Item 1, change the Name and Value.
The problem is that Name does not list P52_ID. If I type it in, it throws an error when I run the page.
I think I added ID, which is also a Display column, later on, so I wonder whether Apex has a refresh issue and can't "see" P52_ID.
On my APEX page i have region which has sql query as source and it displays as HTML table the query result to the user.
I want to display addinonal column with a hyperlink inside, and that hyperlink would have CGI/URL-parameters which contains the other values of the HTML row.
So, let's say my APEX region queryes columns as "select c1, c2, c3, c4 ..." and displays out values "V1, V2, V3, V4" then i want to have addional output column with such hyperlink:
a href="f?p=100:7:13467554876288::NO::c1,c2,c3,c4:v1,v2,v3,v4">My link column with CGI-parameters</aHow can i create such hyperlink?
The overall idea is that the link would forward to a page which loads those values "v1,v2,v3,v4" into form fields and user can proceed from there.
We are using Oracle 11g with Apex 3.2 on AIX. We are reporting data from customer satisfaction surveys. I'm using the following sql to create my report
<code>select * from( select month,'Overall Satisfaction' as q_group, 1 as srt,Overall Satisfaction,site, case when count(*) < 31 then '*' else round((sum(ttos)/count(*))*100,0)||'/'|round((sum(bfos)/count(*))*100,0)||'/'||count(*) end ospct from v_XXX_report a,(select distinct month_dt month from v_XXX_report) b where Overall_Satisfaction is not null and year_dt = 2012
[Code]....
The problem is that site is not allways present and sometimes I have other variables in addition to site. This creates a situation where the month columns will not allways appear at the same column number. For example, When I run this query as is then the "JAN" column is Col3 (first column is a break, col2 is not shown). When I run this query without site then "JAN" is the second column. I would like to create column links for the "JAN" - "DEC" columns but not for any other columns.
Another issue - in the column link creation screen I can create up to 3 variables that I can pass to the next page. Since my query is a pivot I'm uncertain how to pass the column heading or the row value (for col2)
ie Overall Satisfaction JAN FEB MAR APR MAY ... Overall Satisfaction 12/12/200 12/12/210 12/12/220 12/12/230 12/12/240... Recommend 12/12/200 12/12/210 12/12/220 12/12/230 12/12/240... etc.
So if I clicked on the values at Recommend:FEB how can I get "Recommend" and "FEB" into variables that I can use on the next page? I've tried #column_name#, #month#, #q_name# and #APEX_APPLICATION.G_F10# but no luck.
I want to pass multiple column values of a row in an interactive report page to hidden items in another page through column link. And I did it successfully. However, I found I need to pass more than 3 columns of a row in this report, while a column link only permits me to pass 3 column value at most. Is there anyway that I can pass more column values to hidden items in another page?
I have IR wit one column link target to URL, and it uses javascript:my_function(#COLUMN_VALUE#)as URL, that is, calls some function and passes the value of that column to the function; everything works fine; but when I place a cursor over the link, bottom line of IE9 browser (is it called a 'status bar'?) clearly shows:
'javascript:my_function(<actual value>)' Is there any way to prevent it from showing function name and parameter value? I tried onmouseover="window.status='';"but it does not work
I'm a APEX newbie using APEX 4.1. I have a table with engineering drawing information (drawing number, title, revision, etc.) and another table with the corresponding drawing files (pdfs stored as blobs where the filename is the drawing number with a pdf extension). The user wants to search for a particular drawing by drawing number from the drawing info table and if the drawing number exists in the drawing files table the drawing number will also be a download link for the file, if the drawing number doesn't exist in the drawing files table than the drawing number will display as plain text (not as a download link).
I have an Interactive Report with a column that I need to create a link on but I need to pass the value of another column.
This report shows the Features of a particular Release. There is a select list for the Release that is selected and executes the report. There is a column that indicates whether the Feature has a Commitment attached to it. If there is have that a link to another report that shows all the Commitments for that Feature by passing the FEATURE_ID which is also a column on the Feature report.
Query: SELECT .... ,CASE WHEN ft.feature_id IN (SELECT cc.feature_id FROM customer_commitments cc WHERE ft.feature_id = cc.feature_id ) THEN 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END "Commitment Exists" ,ft.feature_id ....
FROM ....If "Commitment Exists" has a 'Yes', the 'Yes' is a link that will pass the FEATURE_ID to another report that will show the Commitments for that Feature. If the "Commitment Exists" has a 'No' then no link. I was also wondering if the Commitment report could open in a seperate window and make it modal?
Apex 4.2.0.00.27 I have a page with a Form region and a Classic Report region. How can I automatically save changes made in the Form when a user clicks the Edit link column in the Report? At the moment, when the user returns to the Form, any changes made there are lost.
I Have an apex page that display a modal window utilizing jquery. In the modal window I have a classic report with a link column that I want to capture its click event.
I was thinking I could create a dynamic action with selection type=jquery selector. Not for sure if I need to do anything on link column and do not know the syntax jquery selector.
I go to Report Attributes, then I click Add Column Link in the "Tasks" right menu, it adds me a column link, I just add some text for the link and a page to go to. Then I run the report and I get :
report error: ORA-01403: no data foundTested with several classic reports on multiple pages.
Debug mode shows me :

Any problem using 4.2's One Level Tabs - Content Frame page where you have a parent region (of type content frame Body Container ) while number of child regions (of type Hide & Show Region - Borderless ), if you want to re-order them by changing the sequence, it has no effect when you run the page.
The regions still show in the same order top to bottom as it did before the update of sequences. Heading links (to show/hide child regons in content frames) has the same ordering as before.
I installed APEX 4.1 with EPG on Oracle linux 6 and for some reason I want to change image prefix from */i/* to */i4/*.
I browsed to apex/utilities and logged in sqlplus as sysdba and run the file:
@reset_image_prefix.sql choosing */i4/* as my new prefix.
then i tried:
select id, flow_image_prefix from apex_040100.wwv_flows; all application now have the prefix /i4/ but when I go to http://myserver:8080/apex nothing is displayed !!!!
when i change */i4/* back to */i/* everything is back to normal...
Im my application, after login, I have a hidden & protected item whose value I am setting based on a logic. Also I would like to access this item's value in a application process, so session will have this value. Now I do not want anybody to be able to change the value of this item. For Eg, if my item was P1_RESP, I was able to change its value in the following way, I have an edit link on somr IR, where I redirect to another page passing some values and the URL looks like : [URL] After the browser loads, I can edit the above URL to below and click enter, [URL]

I have a tabbed form that I need to conditionally disable rows (making them read only). I'm using Javascript to set the attributes of the fields that need to be set.A request was made to make the font color of the read only fields black so that they're easier to read.I'm not able to get the font changed to black on the fields that are Select Lists in Internet Explorer. They are staying gray, however, they are set to black in Firefox. The JavaScript code for one of the Select List is:
I have a page, Say page 1 ..and from that page 1 I go to a different page Say page 2 which is open like a modal window. Now what i need is i need to make a change in the first page that is page 1 ..from page 2 ..
I need to change a value of status field which is in page 1 to Say p100_status ... I think i might have to use application items to accomplish this.. So i Use the following method..

I am using theme 13 (legacy) and made a copy of the report region. Edited it but cannot find an equivalent section of that apex 3.1 screenshot.
I'm trying to create a functionality on my application that lets the user change their password whenever they want or when the password gets expired.
But to do that, first I need a Branch to the page "Password Change" whenever the login procedure returns "Password Expire", but when the user has an expired password he can't access none of the pages of the application.
My other problem is:
Even if I can get the user to be redirect to the "Password Change" page, I would need a function that validate his current expired password, because in order to alter his own, he would need to inform his current password and the new one he desires. If I was using Apex Authentication that would be very easy I think, but I'm obligate to use Database Account Authentication.

I have installed Oracle 11g XE . After this , i have upgraded to Apex 4.2 All it's working fine, but..... by default XE installs and configure apex to use embebed pl/sql gateway.
In this scenario, the images are stored directly in the database within the oracle XML DB repository. This may be a problem because XE have a 11GB limit and my apex aplication is simple, but it may upload pictures for customers, etc, and in this schenma the pictures will consume space in the database instead consuming in the linux filesystem.Can i install HTTP server in a 11g XE and reconfigure apexr?, or can i change to apache+listener? or more easy....can i upload images outside the XML DB in my apex application easily?
I am using theme 4, topaz. Region_Position_06 is a home link.
I have placed a company graphic at this position on page zero, and when a user clicks it on any page, she exits that page and goes to the home page, a main menu page. So no matter how deep a user may be into the application's pages, she may always click this logo image and return directly to the main menu page.
This is convenient, but there is one problem. Clicking this logo does not clear the cache on the page the user is exiting or, for that matter, on any page in the trail of pages the user took to get to the current page. I navigate primarily with buttons and always clear the cache on a page when I exit it. I need to find a way to do this when a user clicks the logo image.
I have a question regarding db link. I have a query that uses a database link, i speed it up by adding the DRIVING_SITE hint and it worked when executed from
sql*plus or pl/sql developer.
It returns results in 3 seconds or even less. However, when i put this query back into the APEX application, specifically into an interactive report page -- it runs for 3 mins!
I have an apex page with a link on one column for each row. My requirement is as below
When i click on the first time on any of that link, it opens up in a new window and any subsequent clicks should override the previously opened window. So at a time, there should be only 2 windows open..
1) the APEX page 2) The browser window after clicking on an link in apex page
I have a requirement where users will select an instance (db link) from an apex LOV and the data in an interactive report will query based on the db link selected. I can use a db link in an interactive report query but only if I provide the exact name of the link. If I do something link select * from foo@:P12_ DBLINK it doesn't work. It seems my only option is to use something like apex_collection.create_collection_from_query and then I can build my query with dynamic sql and use a variable for the dblink name. Then I just create an IRR based on my collection. Does that sound like that correct approach and/or am I missing anything?
