How to put 0 instead of blank in rtf template - oracle

see sample report output with blank fields
I tried this code see imagethis is the code I used
But the 0 was added to the end of each values. See the image below it's looks like this

Try one of these:
<?xdofx:if your_element!='' then your_element else 0 end if?>
<?xdoxslt:ifelse(your_element!='', your_element, 0)?>

To me, the simplest way to do that is to use NVL function in query that populates the report, e.g.
select nvl(that_value, 0) as value
from ...
which means that it'll return value (if it exists) or 0 (if value doesn't exist).

IMPORTXML To Return a Value from dividendhistory.org

I want to return the value of "Yield:" from a series of stocks from a URL dividenhistory.org, for example HDIF into a Google sheet using IMPORTXML, where F7 represents the user supplied ticker.
=IMPORTXML("https://dividendhistory.org/payout/TSX/"&F7, "/html/body/div/div[2]/div[2]/p[4]")
The problem with the above is the yield value is not always located in the same paragraph, depending on the ticker. It also returns with the word "Yield:" as part of the value.
I believe I should be using the XPATH parameter which should find and return the yield value only, but I am lost. I am open to all suggestions!
I tried with a few of the tickers there, and this should work. For example:
=IMPORTXML("https://dividendhistory.org/payout/ctas/", "//p[contains(.,'Yield')]/text()")
Output:
Yield: 1.05%
Obviously, you can change 'ctas' for any user input.
Try this and see if it works on all tickers.
EDIT:
To get only the number 1.05, you need to split the result and output the 2nd part:
=index(split(IMPORTXML("https://dividendhistory.org/payout/ctas/", "//p[contains(.,'Yield')]/text()"), ": "),2)
Output:
0.0105

Cypress - counting number of elements in an array that contain a specific string

Attempting to confirm that of all the schema in the head of a page exactly 3 of them should have a specific string within them. These schemas have no tags or sub classes to differentiate themselves from each other, only the text within them. I can confirm that the text exists within any of the schema:
cy.get('head > script[type="application/ld+json"]').should('contain', '"#type":"Product"')
But what I need is to confirm that that string exists 3 times, something like this:
cy.get('head > script[type="application/ld+json"]').contains('"#type":"Product"').should('have.length', 3)
And I can't seem to find a way to get this to work since .filter, .find, .contains, etc don't filter down the way I need them to. Any suggestions? At this point it seems like I either need to import a custom library or get someone to add ids to these specific schema. Thanks!
The first thing to note is that .contains() always yields a single result, even when many element match.
It's not very explicit in the docs, but this is what it says
Yields
.contains() yields the new DOM element it found.
If you run
cy.get('head > script[type="application/ld+json"]')
.contains('"#type":"Product"')
.then(console.log) // logs an object with length: 1
and open up the object logged in devtools you'll see length: 1, but if you remove the .contains('"#type":"Product"') the log will show a higher length.
You can avoid this by using the jQuery :contains() selector
cy.get('script[type="application/ld+json"]:contains("#type\": \"Product")')
.then(console.log) // logs an object with length: 3
.should('have.length', 3);
Note the inner parts of the search string have escape chars (\) for quote marks that are part of the search string.
If you want to avoid escape chars, use a bit of javascript inside a .then() to filter
cy.get('script[type="application/ld+json"]')
.then($els => $els.filter((index, el) => el.innerText.includes('"#type": "Product"')) )
.then(console.log) // logs an object with length: 3
.should('have.length', 3);

how acess the report column value in oracle-apex?

I need the "elabora prenotazione" button to be shown only when the column "stato prenotazione" is "IN SOSPESO"
I tried to set a condition but I don't know how to pick the column value
If I understand your question, this could help:
For the source of your report:
SELECT
CASE
WHEN stato_prenotazione = 'in sospeso' THEN 'elabora prenotazione'
ELSE ''
END name_of_column,
prenotazione,
username,
nome,
cognome,
viaggio,
stato_viaggio,
data_prenota,
stato_prenotazione,
numero_ospiti
FROM your_table
Then set the column "name_of_column" to type: link, and fill the target.
Wrap a condition around a call to apex_page.get_url within your SQL, so it will only produce a link when relevant
Example of function in use, sans condition:

Use this to make the button look prettier, and maybe get some other ideas
https://www.grassroots-oracle.com/2015/12/tutorial-include-action-button-in-report.html
See this in regard to escaping special characters, otherwise you'll just see HTML in your report
https://www.grassroots-oracle.com/2017/01/escape-special-characters-apex-demo.html
This could be resolved by a simple case statement as #sara mentioned.
something like:
select (case stato_prenotazione when 'in sospeso' then 'elabora prenotazione' end) as your_column
I would not keep else condition so that the column will simply contain null value if the condition is not met.

How to get record data from locate?

In VFP 6 I have a table called "cars" and inside a button I want to find an ID based on the name. What did I do wrong?
... code
SELECT cars
LOCATE FOR ALLTRIM(UPPER(name)) = variable_read_from_textbox
IF NOT FOUND()
messagebox("not found")
ELSE
messagebox(cars.id_car)
ENDIF
Running the code works ok when the name is not found but when it is found it errors out.
Thanks!
Your code is right in general. Slight modification for safety and fix for error:
SELECT cars
* this implies an exact match, regardless of set exact, and makes casing same
* remember this wouldn't use an index unless there is an index with the same signature
LOCATE FOR ALLTRIM(UPPER(name)) == ALLTRIM(UPPER(m.variable_read_from_textbox))
IF NOT FOUND()
messagebox("not found")
ELSE
messagebox(transform(cars.id_car))
ENDIF
As far as I remember, in VFP6, messagebox() was not yet capable transforming the value to string for you and expects a string (you didn't tell what the error is but that should be it).
A little caution about your search.
ALLTRIM(UPPER(name))
will NOT use an index, unless there is an index with key "ALLTRIM(UPPER(name))". If there is, it would be used, but such an index is actually useless because of the alltrim(). A better index would simply be:
Upper(name)
and then your search would look like:
variable_read_from_textbox = ALLTRIM(UPPER(m.variable_read_from_textbox))
SET EXACT ON
SELECT cars
LOCATE FOR UPPER(name) = m.variable_read_from_textbox
IF NOT FOUND()
...

What does "read_strt" meaning here?

What does this vbscript code mean?
<%=read_strt(objRS, "ccnumber", "")%>
I want to know whats the meaning or used of read_strt on the code?
Any ideas?
The statement writes the return value of a call to the function "read_strt" to the HTML output stream. The function seems to read the value of a field/column in the current row of a database query (recordset), convert its type to String and/or test it against 'bad' (e.g. Null) values; in that case the default value ("", empty string) is returned.
