Default values for form

I am building a form for my office that submits information to a database.  I would like to use the same form to add new information and modify existing information.  I also want the form to retain the data once it is submitted (i.e. If the user clicks on send and there is a required field blank, the form is re-load with the stored data.)

I'm not allowed to use javascript (the agency rule).

I started with something like this for each field:

<cfinput type="text" name="title" value="#FORM.title#" />

That's fine, but then I added the Edit option.  A photo of the user entry on a previous page that transmits an id number in the URL (ex: form.cfm? edit = 32) to the form.

When URL.edit has one value other than zero (default assigned cfparam), it triggers a query that retrieves data from the database.  I want these data to fill in the form, so I tried this:

<cfinput type="text" name="title" value="#iif(URL.edit eq 0,DE(FORM.title),DE(queryname.title))#" />

This works perfectly if the query is run, but I get an error when I load the blank form:

Element TITLE is undefined in QUERYNAME. 

I'm basically train make empty if the form is loaded from scratch, the default value of form make the previous form values if the form is re-charge after submission, or and use the query if a URL parameter is passed.

Is it possible to make this work?  I don't want to have to write several versions of the form.

Your half-way, you have just basiclly need to combine your two approaches.

Set a collection of variables to fill the fields of the form.

Then if there is a query is run, set this collection with the values of the query.  It is roughly as follows, and there are different ways of this skin for apporached different framework.

  • Default value for the select list of type of form elements

    Hello

    I do not work with Apex that mutch, so this may be a simple question... but I still need help.
    I have a form, in this form, I have a question P19_ONTVANGER_ID, this is based on a LOV.
    This LOV is on a table that has a field of username with the value of APP_USER.
    The table looks like:
    ONTVANGER_ID this is the PK and is going to be the return value from the LOV.
    NAME is the display value for the LOV.
    USERID is the column APP_USER.

    What users would like to get is that if they create a new record, the default value for the P19_ONTVANGER_ID field is their own ONTVANGER_ID.
    But they must also be able to select another user.

    hope there is someone out there that can and will help me.

    Kind regards

    You can select the Type of default value as the body of the PL/SQL function

    and to add something like that

    declare
    v_return number;
    begin
      select your_id

      where some_column = :APP_USER;

  • Form - different default value for each new line needed

    Hi all

    I'm a newbie in the APEX and now I am struggling with a problem in the form of tables.

    On my page, I report master detail, where the detailed part is created in a table form (I used the Wizard).

    Now I want to implement the following:

    When I click on the button that adds the line of tabular form, I want to assign the default value for the column 'LOGNO' in my tabular form. Value for this column is table extraction and I this value already stored on the page to display one element 'P210_LOGNO_ACT '.

    When I click on the button for one second third etc.) times I would like to set the default for the column LOGNO as LOGNO = P210_LOGNO_ACT + 1.

    Y at - it something simple, or is - this difficult to attribute the different value to each new row of tabular form?

    Version of the apex 4.1.0.00.32

    Thanks in advance!

    Inspect your column and find out the name of your column attribute, it must be something like fxx (f01, f02, f03... etc) and use this column instead of f11 (in my case, the name attribute is f11)

    Create a JavaScript function in your page header

    function myaddRow() {
    //perform standard addrow
      addRow();
      //set default value here
    //make sure you replace the P5_X with your page item name
      $s('P5_X',parseInt($v('P5_X'))+1);
      $('input[name="f11"]')[$('input[name="f11"]').length-1].value=$v('P5_X');
    }
    

    Change your button to add a line and call the function above, as shown below

    javascript:myaddRow();

  • Best way to set the default values for the form elements

    Hello

    I have a form with a lot of defaults that is mentioned below...
      Field                      value  
      created by             :APPL_USER
      creation_date         SYSDATE
      last_updated_by     :APPL_USER
      last_update_date    SYSDATE
      item1                     value1
      item2                     value2
    I am currently using calculation-> after presents... then when we create/update a record... these computaion takes place and the default value for the inserted values get... THIS WORKS PERFECTLY WELL.

    I want to know... If this approach is fine OR we can have a better approach to achieve...?

    Thank you
    Deepak

    Hello

    I think it's good if it fits your need.

    But why you have these fields in the form?
    created by: APPL_USER
    CREATION_DATE SYSDATE
    last_updated_by: APPL_USER
    last_update_date SYSDATE

    The user can enter the ones?
    I thought that those who are to audit and I would fill those drop with trigger in the database.
    So that you get the same "correct" values if you need to manipulate the data with example of sql client

  • Type/conditional default value for a form element

    Hello

    I have an interactive report with a form on the table 'A' who 'Who' has columns like 'CREATED_BY', 'LAST_UPDATED_BY '. Now, I'm auto these columns in the form with the & APP_USER. function. The scenario occurs when the 'P' user clicks on the button 'CREATE' on the report, these columns of the report get populated info P. After committing this recording, the "Q" user edit this record even with the link 'Edit' in this folder. The two columns get populated by the Q news, ideally only LAST_UPDATED_BY should get populaed by the news of the Q and not the CREATED_BY column, as it is the 'P', which created this record.

    To do this, I guess that in the type of default value for these items, I have to use "Body of the PL/SQL function" instead of "static text with Session of Substitutions in State". Problem is to know how to code the filter: If the user pressed 'create' button or the button "Edit". Help, please

    Thank you
    Mary

    Hi Mary

    Usually, I would do this sort of thing on a trigger. However, you could do the conditional CREATED_BY field on the primary key of the record is null (which is itself a new record, but it must have a value of an existing record). The LAST_UPDATED_BY field should not be conditional, as it should be the name of the user who recorded the record.

    Printing which forms an angle seems ok, but one that is horizontally seems faded, incomplete.

    I was wondering if I saved a layer somewhere and set it as a default value.

    If you group the layers, you will be left with a single layer, thus spreading your concern.

    Suggest that you do the following:

    1. Make sure you have the latest drivers for your printers
    2. Reset the default preferences.

    Hold the Alt, Ctrl + Shift keys when you click the icon to open the items. When asked if you want to delete the settings file, say Yes.

  • How to add the default value for the "Full - Text Search" box

    Hi all

    I am looking for the ability to add a default value for the "Full text search" box in the search form.

    Example:

    When the user accesses the search page it get default values for some fields (defined in the rule as default values) such as

    xField1 = txt1 and xFiel2 = txt2.

    and Furthermore we need full-text = Hello world.

    Is this possible?

    Another way that we use is to open the search by URL with coreContentOnly = 1 as a form:

    http:// < Server >/cs/idcplg? IdcService = GET_DOC_PAGE & to Action = GetTemplatePage & to Page = STANDARD_QUERY_PAGE & coreContentOnly = 1 & to xField1 = txt1 & to xFiel2 = txt2

    It is possible to add full-text criteria here? Somethig like: & text = Hello World

    Thank you

    Leon

    It is not possible in a very obvious way, not to mention that it is a rather strange request.  I can't really imagine a realistic use for this case.

    Anyway, without a messy customization, you should provide a default query with an FTX inside element text setting (i.e. "IdcService = GET_DOC_PAGE & Action = GetTemplatePage & Page = STANDARD_QUERY_PAGE & QueryText =Hello World" "")

    To do this in a profile in the secondary effects of the profile section, add the following:

    <$dpPromote("QueryText",>Hello everyone") $>.

    Hello

    a struct is a data type, and you cannot assign a default value for it.

    You can assign a default value to a variable of type struct, with the following syntax

    struct device myDevice is {0, 0, "127.0.0.1", 25000};.

    Hope this helps,

  • Want to change the WordPad default values for font size and line spacing

    I use WordPad quite heavily because it is simple and fast.  But the new version of W - 7 seems to not allow you to change the default values for the font, size and line spacing.  The default values are not suitable for a large part of what I do and I'd like to find a way of quickly and easily, either make the changes permanent or change this to open with a single click of mouse or at most two.  Any suggestions?

    It is the "best" solution to workaround.  After you change your Default.rtf custom, simply move it to your system32 directory and add the "Default.rtf" at the end of the location of your target on the property sheet for your file WordPad.exe.

    Every time that you open its default location in the directory c:\program files\windows NT\Accessoires WordPad.exe, it defaults to now your Default.rtf custom.
