In the first part of this Blogpost Series we touched some fundamentals and finally listed some options. If you haven’t read it, yet, please do now before continuing here.
The last post ended with me saying I found a way for hrURLs that works with APEX Listener, mod_plsql and EPG.
I haven’t tested the Thoth Gateway, but based on the documentation I’d say it works as well as the mod_plsql way.
Searching the APEX Forum for nice URLs is as old as Oracle APEX itself, so far without much luck. There is magic switch that forces APEX to create readable URLs.
As part of preparing my Presentation “Going Public” for Kscope 2014 in Seattle, I investigated the available methods on providing readable URLs and found some good ones.
You can check this public APEX website to see how good URLs can look like: www.click-click.at
apex.oracle.com has been upgraded on Sept 6th 2013 to Version 4.2.3.00.07, which means a release of APEX 4.2.3 is close.
Friday night i finally arrived after a long flight from Vienna to Washington to New Orleans, whereas the flights were pretty good, it is just that endless series of waiting lines that is tiresome.
Anyway, i’m here and – as usual – still working on my slides and demos with the hope to impress at least some of the attendees :-)
After the APEX Developer Addon broke in Chrome 27, I had to change the underlying architecture and do a rewrite of the Addon basis.
Some nice guys helped me Beta-Test that over the last week. Now it should be good to go.
This is a quick one, if you have followed my other mobile blog posts.
When creating the mobile guide to the AOUG Conference 2013 (taking place June 17 and 18 in a historic Brewery in Vienna, Austria), i found myself creating a new theme using the themeroller, but still not getting the perfect result i wanted.
With Chrome Version 27 a security bug in the browser was fixed which caused the APEX Developer Addon to break.
Thanks to all sending me a reply about that, i’m currently working on a fix and hope to be able to provide that soon.
In the meantime please stay calm and use Firefox instead.
P.S.: no, the APEX Developer Addon didn’t exploit a security hole. It is just an unhappy coincidence that fixing one security problem broke our extension.
When developing mobile applications with APEX 4.2 you’ll find the developer toolbar on the page bottom is missing.
This can be a little bit annoying when investigating misbehaving applications. Oracle recognizes this as Issue 14749955 with the workaround to access the toolbar functions through a desktop page…
Only a little over 6 weeks, then this years Kscope Conference starts in New Orleans.
Last year i had the honor to present there for the first time and i absolutely loved it.
Here’s why…
Yesterday i needed to find out if the current page of an application is rendered using the public Session 0 (zero).
Seems to be a trivial task, simply look up :APP_SESSION and there you find … Continue reading
