I am new to Oracle Apex.I am trying to receive POST data in Oracle Apex page. I want to submit a HTML form and receive that post submission in my Oracle Apex app. searched web but couldn't get suggestions.
In my Oracle database 11g, I have configured Apex 18.1 which is running in 8085 port and created some basic pages.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h2>HTML Forms</h2>
<form action="http://localhost:8085/apex/f?p=106:4:9735956410807:::::" method="post">
<label for="fname">First name:</label><br>
<input type="text" id="fname" name="fname" value="John"><br>
<label for="lname">Last name:</label><br>
<input type="text" id="lname" name="lname" value="Doe"><br><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
<p>If you click the "Submit" button, the form-data will be sent to Oracle Apex page.".</p>
</body>
</html>
This POST submission will be from external source and Apex app should process this submission.
Thanks in advance.
There are a couple options here:
You could create a webservice using APEX Restful services and sending there. It's probably much safer than exposing you application like you are doing. Worst case scenario you'll have to convert you form post to a json on the backend of the original app, which should be easy pease.
Why not just create a public page with an APEX form and execute a process after the submit happens? You have a tool that generate forms and you are building one from scratch?
*** Having said that, you might want to have the page in a different domain, site, etc... I still think you would be better telling on the other site that the person would be redirected and then sending it to the APEX form

I am having an issue with a form using AMP.
The form works perfectly on a standard amp html page - the button is clicked and the search.php is triggered.
<form method="post" action-xhr="search.php" target="_top">
<input name="query" placeholder="search" id="query" size="40" value="">
<button type=submit class="btn-search"><amp-img ></amp-img></button>
<input type=hidden name=search value=1>
</form>
Then the exact same code (including all the includes, etc) on the MVC framework I am using doesn't work. The button is clicked and nothing happens.
Source codes on both are identical when viewing page source.
Should this not be happening - the specific MVC framework I am using possibly has an issue with this?
Or is it due to it being MVC, the view (header.twig) has the form on the not working version. Would the php code from search.php go into the controller?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Note upfront: I do not have any experience using scripts but only some basic HTML and PHP skills.
I would like a page on my google site to refresh automatically as soon as the embedded google form was submitted. This to instantly display the embedded and updated google form results after the button is clicked without the visitor having to reload the page manually. (like you would have for any online poll)
My form sheet is updating perfectly but I have not yet found an example or tutorial how to make a page refresh work for the google site with an embedded google form when the submit button is clicked. I hope someone can help me by providing an example on how to make this work. Preferably I would like to use an embedded google form rather than having to create a separate PHP form loading into google forms what could be an alternative. Thanks.
Below the HTML as I can see it on my Google page. I would need a trigger I guess from these embedded forms to refresh the page on submit. I just have no idea on how to get this done.

I'm sorry to be the annunciator of a such bad news but that's impossible.
As your code show, you are actually using a google Site to display your google form. The line:
<img src="https://www.google.com/chart?chc=sites&cht=d&...
IS the way google tell you there is a google form in this page when you hit the button to get the source code.
In other words: google don't let you put whatever you want in a google site. It's impossible to add some JS code that will be fired when the user submit the form.
Even if you host your form in something else than a google Site, you won't have this ability, as the form himself will be displayed in an iframe that can't be modified by external scripts.
This is an hard limitation of Google Form, the only workaround that you may use is to write to the user in the confirmation message of the form that he now need to reload the page or go to an other link.
I'm trying to enable search functionality of the Advanced AJAX Page Loader plugin on a custom wordpress theme I'm building, but after I enter keyword into search and hit enter, loader.gif keeps on spinning and I get this message in debug mode : "WARNING: You seem to have more than one title tag on the page, this is going to cause some major problems so page title changing is disabled". It also passes the url of the website twice into the address bar and I believe this has something to do with the action attribute that's being passed by the form.
This is the site in question: http://natalija.co.nf
I left the debug mode of the AAPL plugin on for now
This is my searchform.php code:
<form method="get" id="searchform" class="searchform" action="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>">
<input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="" class="btn" />
<input type="text" size="10" name="s" id="s" value="" onfocus="if(this.value==this.defaultValue)this.value='';" onblur="if(this.value=='')this.value=this.defaultValue;"/>
</form>
I managed to ajaxify the theme with this plugin but I 'm having trouble getting the search to work properly so I was wondering if anyone here can help me out with this? It is driving me crazy.
I solved it. The code in search.php needs to be wrapped with a div class="searchform".
I am using ajax for my website. I have successfully used jQuery.ajax() to asynchronously upload file to server. I am using Dajax and Dajaxice therefore I plan to use these application for file upload as well. I tried this example. It is working fine. But if I add file field into my html form, it does not send file to server. My html form looks like
<form id="myform" action="/file/" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<div style='display:none'><input type='hidden' name='csrfmiddlewaretoken' value='AaSmyBEwQLSD3YghRAD9Cf2uxEjzESUe' /></div>
<p><label for="id_docfile">Select a file</label> max. 42 megabytes</p>
<p><input type="file" name="docfile" id="id_docfile" /></p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Upload" /></p>
</form>
This question has been asked at many place but never answered.
Afaik there is currently no provision within dajax / dajaxice to upload files.
I have used dajax in a few projects and have got round this by using blueimp/jquery-file-upload and a django view that accepts a POST of the upload file and return a JSON string to the client.
This is a less than perfect solution not least because the jquery-file-upload button is styled differently from normal html form elements, it is possible to style the whole form using jQuery-ui, although this is a lot of additional work.
Both, dwr which is pretty much dajax for Java, and tasty pie for django do offer file uploading, so in theory it should be possible to implement it.
I'm happy to post a sample of my ajax solution if anyone would find them useful.
I've also faced this problem recently. So, I've digged a little and discovered some answers.
It is working fine. But if I add file field into my html form, it does not send file to server.
There's serialize() method used in the doc example. But according to the jQuery doc:
Data from file select elements is not serialized.
Also, there's no clear way to get ajax file upload, because JS doesn't have access to the outside of the client browser. So, I don't think it's possible to make using dajaxice.
The easiest hack, I've found is to post form to the invisible iframe using target option:
<form method='POST' action='/upload' enctype='multipart/form-data' target='submit-iframe'>
so, only the iframe will be refreshed. Using js you than can get data from it catching the load() event.
More detailed process described here
I have copied the simple Django forms example exactly, running on localhost. The basic contact form example should submit a POST request when you click the Submit button.
I'm running Chrome on Mac Snow Leopard, and whenever I submit the form, the page simply reloads with an empty form: I can see from the runserver output that it's not sending a POST - instead it's sending a GET request.
If I open the same page in Firefox on Mac Snow Leopard, and submit the form, I can see it's sending a POST request (as it should be).
Looking at the source in Chrome, the form definitely says method="post".
<form action="/contact/" method="post">
<p><label for="id_subject">Subject:</label> <input id="id_subject" type="text" name="subject" maxlength="100" /></p>
<p><label for="id_message">Message:</label> <input type="text" name="message" id="id_message" /></p>
<p><label for="id_sender">Sender:</label> <input type="text" name="sender" id="id_sender" /></p>
<p><label for="id_cc_myself">Cc myself:</label> <input type="checkbox" name="cc_myself" id="id_cc_myself" /></p>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
External sites with POST forms seem to work OK in Chrome.
In addition, if I fill the form in incorrectly, in Chrome the page just reloads, with a GET request, as before; in Firefox the form gets validated, as it should.
I've tried with other POST forms on localhost and got the same result.
I know Chrome for Mac has its quirks, but what on earth is going on?
This is likely being caused by Chrome treating each file:// URL as a different domain. Try launching Chrome with the --allow-file-access-from-files option and see if that helps.
Update: You'll have to close all existing Chrome instances and launch a fresh instance with that option to notice any difference.
