ICON on List Box

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Is it possible to have an icon as a value in the Dropdown listbox without using iterator? My client wants to see an icon in the place of the normal text character description when they do a dropdown for possible options.

I have already tried the following :

<htmlb:dropdownListBox id= "qsddl1"

table = "//returnsb/gt_status"

nameOfKeyColumn = "value"

nameOfValueColumn = "id"

selection = "//returnsb/p_svalue"

disabled = "false" />

where id is a 4 character field in the table (type icon_d) and contains for example value @xy@.

When I run the BSP @xy@ is displayed in the dropdown and not an icon.

Can anyone help?

Regards,

Jan.

Koen,

When assigning a value to build the table (ls_status-value = '<img src='s_B_MNGR.gif'> , the system complains about my syntax. Is there a specific way of doing it?

The same happens when I try a full path for the image.

here is the correct syntax

ls_status-value = '<img src="s_B_MNGR.gif">'

but i have already tried and it doesnt work.

not only images, you cannot even do a html formatting for your options in <select>

the only other option i have seen is grouping your options with <optgroup>

OK, I will keep this open and do some research from my side as well. Will post it to this thread if successfull. BTW, do you happen to know if WEB Dynpro can run without the Netweaver umbrella if we upgrade a WEB as 6.2 server to WEB as 6.4?

[athavanraja]

What do you mean by "without the Netweaver umbrella" - do you mean the JAVA stack.

and which webdynpro you are talking about? if its ABAP then the minimum requirement NW2004s (thats WAS7.00)
