Plug In: Bootstrap Carousel Extension

A carousel/slideshow is used to cycle through elements. A plugin to display images as a responsive slideshow. Special thanks to Farzad Soltani for his Bootstrap Image Carousel Plugin, that will add a bootstrap carousel with three images (static), but this plugin (Bootstrap Carousel Extension) will render a bootstrap carousel region based on query output (dynamic) and changing the slides can be controlled via left and right arrow keys.

Printing Page Numbers in RTF Template [Oracle BI Publisher]

Here I am giving an example to print the page numbers dynamically in the RTF (Rich Text Format) template. Step 1:  Go to page footer and copy and paste the below script.

Save Selected Interactive Grid Records into a Collection - Oracle APEX

Here I am giving an example to save selected interactive grid records into a oracle apex collection. Step 1: Create a new blank page. Note: Mine was page 20. You will need to update reference to " P20 " with your page number if it's different. Step 2: Create a new interactive grid report region to the page using below query. Set Static Id "EmpDetails" to the region. SELECT  *     FROM   ( SELECT  emp . empno ,                emp . ename ,                emp . JOB ,                dept . dname department ,                dept . loc  LOCATION ,                mgr . ename  manager ,                emp . hiredate ,                 nvl ( emp . sal , 0 )  salary ,                 nvl ( emp . comm , 0 )  commission            FROM  eba_demo_chart_emp emp ,                eba_demo_chart_dept dept ,                eba_demo_chart_emp mgr           WHERE  emp . deptno = dept . deptno             AND  emp . mgr      = mgr . empno  ( + )           ORDER   BY  emp . ename
