Exiting From Oracle Apex PWA - oracle-apex

i am pretty new to oracle apex.
i have created oracle apex pwa.
now i want to have an exit button on home page to exit the application just like a native app.
Thanks in anticipation.

Since the PWA is a webview, you could use a single line of JavaScript.
Create you button, add dynamic action with execute cliente side / JavaScript Code and add this.
window.close();
It works perfectly on the PWA I've installed in my Laptop

Is there a way to use the python model "webbrowser" with Heroku?

I am working on deploying a django app to heroku and I am having trouble with the webbrowser module. The function initially creates a pdf from html using pdfkit (this part works fine). Afterwards, I use '''webbrowser.open_new_tab''' to render the pdf in a new tab. This works perfectly locally, but not when I deploy to Heroku :( I checked the Heroku log, and it indicates that the pdf is being properly compiled and that the webbrowser command is successfully called, but alas, a new tab is not opened... Are there any suggestions on how best to tackle this issue? Perhaps I am missing an important environment variable that allows me to open new pages on the user's browser?
Thank you,

Oracle APEX 5.0 cannot change title

I am completely new in Oracle APEX. I cannot understand why it is not possible to change the page title. It can be set while creating a new app using the wizard, but after finishing the process of creating the new application it is not possible to change existing page title.
Is there a way to change the page title after creating the app?
Yes it is possible:

Sitecore menu items not working - javascript errors

So I'm just starting to work in sitecore and for some reason none of menu options are working in Page Editor mode for the site that I'm working on. We pretty much have the sitecore website and add some extra page content (MVC app files) to it. I'm getting a variety of javascript errors.
In content Editor, if I click the Sitecore logo and click on Properties I get
TypeError: contentIframe.dialog is not a function
In page editor if I click on the blue components button I get:
TypeError: i.widget is not a function
I'm guessing maybe it's a conflict between jquery that we're using for this website and whatever Sitecore is using. I think it's 7 - but I can't see it via the menu option :)
That guess could be wrong - it could in fact be a browser issue, but I've ensured Firefox is not blocking popups. It doesn't work in Firefox, IE or Chrome though.
The weird thing is that no one else on the project is having this issue it's only on my computer.
Edit - I've also just tried re-installing (7.2) without any local code changes I still can't click on a page and go to Presentation, Details (Layout) - I get a TypeError: contentIframe.dialog is not a function
Edit 2 - I've noticed that I can use sitecore in the QA environment and the dialogs work fine there. So it's something specific to my local build of the site we have (sitting on top of sitecore). But the dialogs just throw jquery errors when I do stuff locally. I was hoping it would be a browser setting but doesn't look like it.
Edit 3 - What I've tried this morning.
Same thing happens in all browsers (FF, IE, Chrome) and I’ve cleared
my browser cache I can access the QA site and the dialog appears as
expected
Copied across the QA site files, pointed my local Digital
site in IIS to the new folder – dialogs don’t work
Team member tried accessing the site from his machine (pointing to my IP address) and
dialogs work for him
I tried seeing if another local sitecore site dialogs were working – but the menu items for that are opening as new windows (so I’m guessing it’s a sitecore 7.2 feature that they appear as jquery dialogs??)
So after googling for rejected-by-urlscan it turns out there's a program called UrlScan from microsoft that was blocking my dialogs. Uninstalled that and I now have dialogs appearing for sitecore. Very exciting :)
I guess it is a problem with some browsers plugin. Sitecore is sensitive to scripts that are used(different versions of jquery or prototype.js). Plugins can inject scripts to HTML source of pages and it can cause errors.
Try to switch off all plugins at least at one browser and check the results.

Is firebug lite javascript must need in Sitecore shell?

Is Firebug lite must needed in Sitecore shell? What is the use of this for content authors?
http://alexeyrusakov.com/sitecoreblog/CommentView,guid,6704bf3d-8980-4f29-9ac2-125cff64bb80.aspx
You can safely remove the firebuglite script from the shell.
To do so, open the Core database and navigate to
/sitecore/layout/Devices/Internet Explorer
and delete the Firebug Lite item.
Firebug lite is included automatically with the Sitecore editor. Simply press F12 to bring it up within the context of the window you are working in.
It really has no benefit for the content author. As Adam said, it's main benefit is for developers working on changes to the shell.
Firebug lite can be run from a bookmarklet, rather than having it load on each page.

As it's a javascript debugger, you'll only need it if you're editing js in the shell - eg SheerUI apps, custom fields etc.

Iphone and php application

I created php pages.. those php pages are registration form.with the fields.FirstName,LastName and CompanyName...If I fill the information in that form and hit submit the data will store it on the mysql database.And I created one page...that displays the data which I have added through register form...I have a button on this page which displays the data...my question is when I click that button...my display data must store on the Iphone ...is that possible to do.....or any other solution.....and how to use php on Xcode....?
You appear to be confusing server and client-side programming.
If you want to run stuff on a website on the iPhone to save locally, you will have to use HTML5 and Javascript, and HTML5's feature for local databases (if the iPhone doesn't support this currently, it certainly will soon).
PHP will run on the server, if you want to save the data on the server-side.
If you want to run stuff only locally on the iPhone, then you'll want to look into XCode and Objective-C. The iPhone uses SQLite as a local database for applications to use.
Are you opening your webpage in Safari on the iPhone, or are you planning on having an application running?
If you have a server with a PHP application, why would you want to store the "display data" on the iPhone? Is this for offline use?
Users can copy/paste info to notes on their iPhone, though this is not a very handy solution.
If you want the phone to remember the data locally, you can set the expire header of your application to a date in the far future, but be careful as this has risks if you change data and the client doesn't learn about it because it thinks it has a valid local copy.
Also, read this (short) article about caching data with HTML on the iPhone: http://ajaxian.com/archives/html5-features-in-latest-iphone-application-cache-and-database
That suggests it is supported. But, I wouldn't know how. I'm sure google can help you there.
You could just capture the user's information in standard UITextField's and then submit the form programmatically using ASIFormDataRequest from the ASIHTTPRequest library. It's made specifically for posting data to a form.
