16.12 Creating Lists

Add a shared collection of links (or a list) to a database application. To add a list to a page, create a region and specify the region type as List. You control the appearance of a list through list templates.

• About Static and Dynamic Lists
  Oracle Application Express supports two types of lists: Static Lists and Dynamic Lists.
• Creating Static Lists
  A Static List is based on predefined display and return values.
• Creating Dynamic Lists
  A Dynamic List is based on a SQL query or a PL/SQL function executed at runtime.
• Copying a List
  Copy a list from another application, or copy a list from the existing application.
