In Oracle APEX, how do I make my button delete a row? - oracle-apex

In Oracle APEX, I figured out how to add a button into the APEX table. Here is my table so far, and the extra column has a link "Sample Link Text" .
It is by adding this code :
<button class="t-Button " id="#edit_link#"
onclick="showRow(#edit_link#);" type="button"><span class="t-Button-label"> + </span></button>
However, I'm stuck on the task of causing the button click to delete the current row. How do I link the button to an action (like delete or update)?
thanks

If you have a created that Apex table as a tabular form, I believe that there's a default delete button that comes with it but if there's none, here's how to create a delete button:
Under the region of your table, create a button. Then set it's "Action" property to "Redirect to URL". Set it's target URL to this javascript:apex.confirm(htmldb_delete_message,'MULTI_ROW_DELETE');
Then Save.

Also Please check if the Delete check box is selected in process.

How to give link for 3 different URLs on single button using select list in oracle apex

If user selects one option from select list then that button should link to different URL, if user selects second option from that select list then that same button should land at another URL , Kindly help me in it using ORACLE APEX.
Create a page item P1_URL of type select list
Add a couple of entries - for this example I'm using static values but a query should work too. Make sure the return value of the entry contains the actual url:
Create a button with action "Submit Page"
Create a branch
Execution Options > Point > "Processing"
Type: "Url defined by Item (Redirect)"
Item: P1_URL
Run the page, when you click the button the page should redirect to the selected url.

APEX - double click on interactive gird

Below is my interactive grid. It shows data from v$sql_monitor view based on sql_id from list .
What I would like to do is to create double-click dynamic action on a record. This action would open new modal dialog and pass two parameters : 1. sql_id from list above 2.sql_exec_id from clicked record. Would you give me a few hints how to do it ? I guess a piece of Javascript code will be necessary :(
There are multiple options to do this - here is one way, by using javascript custom events. I created a sample with an IG on the EMP/DEPT sample dataset with page 88 as IG and page 90 as modal. The column ENAME is a link to page 90 that sets a column value and a page item in the link.
Page 88 has an IG and 2 page items:
P88_PAGE_ITEM (a value entered on the page like the list in your screenshot)
P88_ENAME (to hold the selected report column value
Page 90 has 2 page items: P90_PAGE_ITEM and P90_REPORT_COLUMN
Create IG on page 90 on table EMP
On column ENAME, add the following under "JavaScript Initialization Code"
function(config) {
config.defaultGridColumnOptions = {
cellTemplate: '<button type="button" class="t-Button t-Button--link my-ename-js" data-ename="&ENAME.">&ENAME.</button>'
};
return config;
}
This is a button of type "display as link", created with the universal theme button builder that has 2 extra attributes: a class my-ename-js and a data attribute "ename" data-ename="&ENAME."
Create a dynamic action to capture the click and set the page item:
Make sure to set the scope to "Dynamic". This is needed because the event listener needs to be added again after a dom change (a search or filter of the IG).
add a true action of type "Set Value" to set the value of P88_ENAME to the value of the selected row
add a second true action to trigger a custom javascript event:
Create a dynamic action of type "Event: Custom" to capture the custom event triggered in the previous DA.
add a true action of type "Submit Page". Note that "Show Processing" needs to be unchecked.
Almost there. One last thing is to create a branch to the modal page:
Create a branch (process point "After Processing") with server-side condition of "Request = Value" with value OPENMODAL and link attributes below:
And this should be the result:
Well, I modified a bit your scenario.
I added new SelectList P88_FILTER
and added dynamic action ON_CHANGE :
with action
I modified source if IG:
These changes allowes me to filter IG . In our case filter returns always only one record like below.
and now my problem begins. In your scenario clicking the link "ename" updates field P88_ENAME and opens modal dialog with proper values. After my modification neither P88_ENAME updates nor modal dialog opens :(

How to get value from a bar chart on oracle apex when clicking a specific bar?

I have a bar chart on an oracle-apex page, I want to get the value from a bar when I click on it.
How can this be done?
You can create a new Modal Page with one Item to receive the value.
On you Barchart page go to Series -> Link -> select Redirect Page in This aplication-> and choose the target.
In the Link Builder set Page field as your Modal Page Number and Set Items filed name = item in your modal page to receive the value

validation on button without refresh page on APEX5 5.0

Need your suggestions on handling the validation without submitting page in APEX 5.0. I have following items on my apex report page.
"Select list" item which contains some static values
date pickers ( start date and end date)
Submit button ( Once submit is clicked the report date is displayed )
Here I need to add a dynamic action or validation to the submit button so that if user clicks the submit button without selecting a value from the "Select List", an error message should be displayed to the user that he needs to select the item first from the "Select list" page item. With out any selection from the list , the processing should stop and a warning message should be displayed ( either it could be popup message or message can be marked on the select list page item ) .Point to be noted here that during the submit I do not want to refresh the page, just would like a quick error message to display.
Appreciate your help.
in a similar case i used dynamic actions
dynamic actions works on client side
in my case i am not enabling submit button until user changes the select list value
in my dynamic action my config is as below
Event=change
selection=items
item=selectlistID
and true action is
action=disable
button=submitbuttonname
in your case you can choose javascript as action and add your javascript code

Sitecore Page Editor Publishing items related to content

I have a "Product Page",Product page maps to "ProductPage" Sitecore item. Website/Pages/ProductPage.
I have a text area in that page with page editor, which loads text from "Product Example Text" Sitecore item's "Description" text from Web database. (Sitecore.../CommonText/Product Example Text)
In my ascx file, mark up is pretty straigh forwad,
<sc:FieldRenderer ID="FieldRenderer1" runat="server" />
Codebehind,
FieldRenderer1.Item = //"Product Example Text" Sitecore item
FieldRenderer1.FieldName = "Description";
When I open the page in Page Editor(as a system admin), it allows me to change the "Product Example Text", and when I save using the "Save" button on the Page Editor it get saved to the master database. "Product Example Text" item get saved.
Now, when I try to publish the item using the "Publish" item in the Page Editor ribbon, these changes do not get reflected,reason is "Product Example Text" item does not get published.
When I save the page, somehow Sitecore understands the "Product Example Text" item has to be saved. But why does not it get published?
Am I doing anything wrong.... How can I solve this issue?
While saving an item in Page Editor, Sitecore saves all the field renderers which are displayed on the page, so if you set the Item property of a FieldRenderer1 to "Product Example Test" Sitecore Item, Page Editor know which item should be saved.
The problem with publishing is that you enqueue the current item in the publishing queue, but this item has no link to the "Product Example Test" Sitecore Item in any of its properties cause you're setting the Item property of the field renderer dynamically in the code.
The option would be to add another button to Page Editor next to Edit Related Item button and create a command that will Publish Related Item. The complete description how to add such a command can be found in the answer Sitecore page editor - how to extend page editor item editing panel
Another approach would be to create the "Product Example Test" content item under the "ProductPage" as a sub item. In publish options you can use publish sub items, which will publish all content you want.
But the problem is, if you want a particular content to be shared in several places, this won't work.
Maras's answer is a better solution.
