Have got basic form on a table and have a textarea which holds Notes added by user.
So Notes database field is updated on Save / Apply changes button being pressed.But would really like any text added / appended to the Notes field to be prefixed by userid and date / timestamp.
Is it possible via dynamic actions or Javascript to have any new text added / typed to be auto prefixed as per above.
Would only want the first key press in the filed to trigger the auto-prefix and if added text was deleted then the auto prefix to be deleted as well ?? If user doesn't press Save / Apply changes obviously want to leave existing Notes as is.
I have created a region Q_INFO and in the region i have added HTML text area. This text area is editable for only few users. If the user types in the text area and presses save button. The text is stored in the table INFO. And this text is displayed to all other users. But when i enter any data in the text area with multiple new lines and press SAVE button. The text is displayed in single line. I want to maintain new line and paragraph in the text area.

Within these text entries I have inserted CR/LF (00D00A). However when I display the text entries in a report, the text streams instead of appearing with separate lines.
My report statement:
select text_entry_dt, entry_authy_nm, entry_text
from obj_text
where obj_id = :P41_FIND_ID
and text_type_cd = 'DES'
hat to do to obtain line separation within the entry_text content?
I have a simple column in a table which store a description. This can include line breaks so when you select from it, it looks similar to below
'Part number: X
Batch: Y
Size: Z'
I would like to be able to create a view (so not having any impact on the original data) to return it as below
'Part number: X Batch: Y Size: Z'
I created one collection report and in the report when i click on the next >> then the report will show the next columns to enter data in some columns but the data which i entered before going to next will not get retain (data is getting lost) when i come back by clicking << previous but i want the data to get retained even when i click on next >> or previous << in report so that i can enter large amount of data at a time in the report columns by clicking >> & << and click on submit button to save all the data.

My development instance's APEx version is 4.1. I have two checkbox items works on cascading LOV. The cascading works very well as long as if I do not come back and check anything from the first checkbox item after I checked the second checkbox.
If I do, the cascade LOV refresh uncheck all checked values from the second box. My question is, how can I preserve the second check boxes checked values before refresh?
Recently I remember reading what I think was a blog post on placing the last column of a report underneath the penultimate column - I think it was for classic reports.
I can't find it... Col1 Col2 Col3---- ---- ---- abc def xyz123 456 987 Col1 Col2 ---- ---- abc def xyz123 456 987
I think it was done with some magic in the column definition, or maybe some jQuery?Agnostic to version. It was a more robust solution than using a HTML expression of#COL2#<BR>#COL3#
I need to add the calculation of the amount in an invoice line.
I write the item description, the price, the quantity and the tax. Which is the best solution to calculate the total price of the line. I think to add a SQL function after the button “Add line” is clicked.
is it currently possible to install the supporting objects using sqlplus?
When I export an APEX application which contains supporting objects (scripts to install images, css files, tables and seed data) I can run this script on the command line using sqlplus to install the application into the target environment.
After installing the application (which works fine), I cannot invoke the installation of the supporting objects nor the upgrade of the the supporting objects.
Am I overlooking the obvious, have checked APEX_APPLICATION_INSTALL but there is no function available for that purpose?
In Application Builder, is there a way to searching the application and replacing text within it?
I have an application item named "FORMAT_TYPE1". I would like to perform a find and replace action (just like a word processor) where any part of the application that has name or text "FORMAT_TYPE1" in whole or in part is replaced by the text "FORMAT_CATEGORY1". For example:
FORMAT_TYPE1 becomes FORMAT_CATEGORY1
&FORMAT_TYPE1. becomes &FORMAT_CATEGORY1.
The find/search would do it in any attribute, source code in the application. There is only a Search Application feature, which is useful in identifying places, but lacks any replace function. Is there something else that will do this, besides exporting, editing the source code in a text editor, and then importing the application again?

View 16 Replies View RelatedI am developing an apex application using the apex cloud (apex.oraclecorp.com). I am using the DB link to show the data on APEX UI. I have a blob data which is stored in the remote DB, and I want to display the BLOB data as text on a popup or a new page or a download link. I tried using display only item but APEX throws an error saying that remote DB is not supported. Also, It would be great if I can just show a download link on the UI for the BLOB data, again when I try to select the format as BLOB in the column attributes, When I give the table@dblink as BLOB table I get an error saying that "table@DBLINK not found". Is there any way to display the BLOB data as text or download it which is present in my local DB?

I am using Oracle APEX 4.2 on Oracle 11g.
Just installed 4.2.2.00.09 and imported a workspace and an application. Worked fine.I noted a page display difference when compared to the exported application (4.1.0.00.32). I have (so far) found this:If I have a button with Pre Element Text set to <div class="dummy"> and Post Element Text set to </div>, Apex generates an extra div around it all.If my button was named P1_SUBMIT I end up with
<div id="P1_SUBMIT_CONTAINER">
<div class="dummy"> <input type="button" value="Search" id="P1_SUBMIT" /></div>
</div>
Is it possible for me to turn this extra div off?

View 5 Replies View Relatedi encountered a big problem after upgrading Apex from 4.1 to 4.2.2. On an application page there is a Text Area which will be read and processed after clicking a button. I didn't want a refresh of the page and did it with a dynamic action.All this worked like a charm with 4.1. Since the upgrade, the value of the Text Area is always returned as null while processing the dynamic action, but the value is filled by the user!When i change the type of the Element to Rich Text Area everything works fine, but i don't want this because i don't want HTML in the corresponding table. Is this a bug? How can i workaround it?

How to have a dynamic action populate text fields. When the create button is hit, it will insert the record in the DB like normal.
I had a search box doing a dynamic action when a record_number is entered and the selection changes It populates the remaining text boxes with the results of the record_number.
I used a "SET_VALUE" true action on each individual ITEM
For each individual item i have different SQL Statement populating that item.
Ex. To populate Last_Name/ P2_LAST_NAME item i do the following
Select LAST_NAME from patient_Demographics
where record_id = :P2_RECORD_ID
Affected Elements:
P2_LAST_NAME
So i have about 8 of these true statements, so i'm hitting the DB 8 times to get the individual items. Is there a way to hit the DB once and set the items using one PL/SQL statement? I tried using a PL/sql function body,

I have created a form with a Date From and Date To fields.
I am using the Date Picker format (the new one, not the Classic), and have set the calendar to Show on Both (Focus and Icon Click).
I would like to restrict the field so that the user cannot enter any text - they can only use the Date picker/calendar to choose a date. This would them remove the clunky validations - so I can restrict the users so they can't enter the wrong format in the first place.
Is this possible?
it is possible in an Apex interactive report to sort text as number?
