APEX IG Cookbook Update for 19.1

Published Saturday, March 30, 2019 by John Snyders

[Update 4-Nov-2019 there is a new version of IG Cookbook here]
Application Express 19.1 is now available and I have updated the IG Cookbook to reflect fixes and improvements to Interactive Grid in this release as well as adding 6 new example pages. Download IG Cookbook (release 5.0) and give it a try. If you are still using an older version of APEX you can try the latest out at apex.oracle.com or try a previous IG Cookbook release. As always make sure you install the Sample Interactive Grids app first because it creates some needed tables.

More APEX Menu Fun

During a recent APEX office hours Sven Weller asked a very interesting question about styling top navigation menus. The question was elaborated on in this forum post. There are a lot of details in that thread but the short answer is the out-of-the box top navigation menu doesn’t allow arbitrary markup or individually colored menu items. However the menu widget has many features and here I will show how to create rich custom content menus like the following.
