Passing Client Data Directly to Dialogs

Open a dialog with dynamic client-side values by substituting page item placeholders in a URL template.

To pass dynamic client data to a dialog directly, thus avoiding a server round trip:

• Use APEX_PAGE.GET_URL to default a dialog URL template with page item value placeholders

• Use a JavaScript helper function to substitute the page item placeholders and open the dialog

• Call the helper function in a triggered action to open the dialog, passing in the template URL

• Disable session state protection on the target dialog page item receiving the dynamic value.
