I did however discover another problem that I have not been able to find a resolution to. I need to be able to distinguish between form data and URL parameters (GET/POST) when passing form data to a function. I use portal.wwpro_api_parameters.retrieve(owaVA_ARR_names, owaVC_ARR_values); I opened a TAR with Oracle but was unable to get a resolution to the problem. All they did was question my need for such a thing. My reason is simple… I need to distinguish the difference. So, looks like I need to find a “new trick”.

one pl/sql facade procedure is all that is web facing and uses a small meta data repository to enforce authentication/access and data validation.

the trick to make things more manageable is to devise a numeric format for the description of all web forms and data items. as security was paramount, data validation was pushed out from the business logic to the controller. the controller enforces system wide and data value specific data rules by associating these values with meta data rules that use regular expressions for validation. this direction wards off a slew of web application attack methods.

developers loved the fact that data validation was performed for their interface procedures simply by associating form fields with these rules and that by calling a specific api they could also populate their web forms with client side java script that used the same rules.

the controller api has a bunch of system services built in for debugging, error handling etc…

We got a PL/SQL framework emulating what the original Struts (from Apache Jakarta) is doing.

We use mod_plsql to always call the same package that use a struts-config.xml file to get the informations required to dispatch the process to the appropriate PL/SQL procedure. We also use Stamps (known previously as HTT, http://stamps.sourceforge.net/) as a tag replacement framework based on HTML templates. All the Stamps tags emulate Struts-JSP tags for form fields, links , actions, etc…

That framework was developed as an open source projet for a Quebec government agency.

If more informations are needed, don’t hesitate to contact me.
