A typical URL takes the form :

[pre]wwv_flow.debug('This is my debug message');[/pre]

You can use PLSQL variables or APEX page items :

[pre]wwv_flow.debug('### The value of P1_TEST_ITEM is ' || :P1_TEST_ITEM);[/pre]

The three ###s make the debug message stand out from the numerous other APEX messages.]]> APEX Thu, 16 Apr 2009 23:21:00 +0000 http://www.mattsbits.co.uk/item-2.html Send Emails From APEX http://www.mattsbits.co.uk/item-1.html APEX_MAIL API.

You can send plain text or HTML emails while defining the sender, recipients and bccs.

Note : The package is built using the Oracle supplied UTL_SMTP package so the UTL_SMTP package must be installed and functioning in order to use APEX_MAIL.]]> APEX Wed, 15 Apr 2009 22:52:00 +0000 http://www.mattsbits.co.uk/item-1.html
