Close wait popup on validation trigger

By
Today, I came across a scenario when, there was a validation on my page and I have SUBMIT button which will do validations. I also want to show loading indicator using waitPopup JavaScript API which I wrote on dynamic action "Before Page Submit". But, when validation triggers, I also want to hide it.

The problem was, when it hit the validation, it will show validation message as well the wait popup. Now, I want to hide wait popup when it triggers the validation.



Solution:

1. First change item level validation to page level validation. If you have set item required value to yes, change it to no and create page level validation which will say item is not null.

2. Create following dynamic action to show wait popup:

Name: Show Loading Icon
Event: Before page submit
True Action -> Execute JavaScript Code:
vPopup = apex.widget.waitPopup();

Please note that vPopup should be defined as Global JavaScript variable

3. Create following dynamic action to hide wait popup:

Name: Hide Spinner
Event: Custom
Custom Event: DOMSubtreeModified
Selection Type: jQuery
jQuery Selector: #APEX_ERROR_MESSAGE
Event Scope: Dynamic

True Action -> Execute JavaScript Code:
try{
  vPopup.remove();
}
catch(e){}

Hope this helps!

    We can use also this '.a-Form-error.u-hidden' as 'jQuery Selector' is error is inline below the item

Oracle APEX - Interactive Report - Scrollbars on Top

By

I have been came across an interested requirement ( which is very valid ) to add scrollbars on the top of the regions! I have seen many times when you want to scroll right to see further data of first few records, you will scroll vertically to get to the horizontal scroll-bars. And then you do horizontal scroll and then vertical scroll to go top of the region. Aren't you ??? :-) So, to ease the user interaction with IR - we should have a scrolling option somewhere on the top of the region ? - For Sure So, how can we add scrollbars on top of the report for an Interactive Report ? By default IR Fix the column headers to the page. This setting gives us an opportunity to add scroll-bars just below the column header as well. Just by adding following CSS line you should get a beautiful scroll-bars just below you header and it works really great as well. #MYIR .t-fht-thead{   overflow: auto !important; } I am also trying to find a way to add same function...

Here is how you can create cool nested reports in Oracle APEX and jQuery, which looks like below: For this example, I have used DEPT & EMP example where as a nested report it will show all the child records of employee under department record.

Make your RESTful APIs Secured with OAuth2 - Basic, Simple and Easy Steps

By
Its been a while since my previous article. So, here is my first blog post of 2020. Oracle APEX has an out-of-box and declarative support to create RESTful Web Services using ORDS. Within no-time, you can build and publish your RESTful APIs. Use of ORDS has gradually increased with common standard across different technology strongly adopted via RESTful Web Services and JSON formatted input/output. With the flexibility of data sharing across the technology or within application, we must also think of how secure my RESTful APIs are. We do believe in strong security of our applications using Authentication and Authorization. But, many times we miss the level of security we should implement in our RESTful APIs. So, here is the very simple and basic steps to secure your ORDS RESTful APIs using OAuth2: We will use a default oracle.example.hr web service module to add OAuth2 for this blog. Navigate to SQL Workshop > RESTful Services. From the left side of tree - click on "Ro...
