Select All / Unselect All Checkbox in Interactive Report Header
I want a checkbox in an Interactive Report (IR), and I want the users to be able to quickly Select All or Unselect All of them. I don’t want two big clunky buttons to do this, I just want a single checkbox in the header like I see on cool peoples’ web sites.
To do this:
1. In the Region Definition for the IR, add the checkbox to the query, e.g.:
SELECT ..., apex_item.checkbox(1, record_id) selected FROM ...
2. In the Report Attributes for the IR, modify the attributes of column “SELECTED”:
Heading =
<input type="checkbox" id="selectunselectall">Display Text As = Standard Report Column
Allow Users To = (uncheck all options, including Hide, Sort, etc.)
3. In the page definition, add a Dynamic Action:
Event = Change
Selection Type = jQuery Selector
jQuery Selector =
#selectunselectallCondition = - No Condition -
True Action = Execute JavaScript Code
Fire On Page Load = (uncheck)
Code =
if ( $( '#selectunselectall' ).is(':checked') ) {
$('input[type=checkbox][name=f01]').attr('checked',true);
}
else {
$('input[type=checkbox][name=f01]').attr('checked',false);
}
The only issue with this is if the user clicks “Action” and “Select Columns”, the checkbox item shows the html code (“<input type=”checkbox”…”) instead of a nice name. I think I’ll be able to get away with this.
