Af:carousel Flexibility / Integration Questions of other .JS libraries

Hi All,
I have an ADF application and would like to use the Carousel Item for navigation. I currently have a page with 10 navigation nodes rendered within a Carousel. I want to put extra space between each carousel items but cannot find a way of doing this (Any suggestions?)
Alternatively - I could make use of http://www.professorcloud.com/mainsite/carousel.htm but am wondering how best to integrate this into a .JSPX page?
The generated source required for this library is...
<html>
<head>
<!-- You can load the jQuery library from the Google Content Network.
Probably better than from your own server. -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<!-- Load the CloudCarousel JavaScript file -->
<script type="text/JavaScript" src="/js/cloud-carousel.1.0.0.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
     // This initialises carousels on the container elements specified, in this case, carousel1.
     $("#carousel1").CloudCarousel(          
               xPos: 128,
               yPos: 32,
               buttonLeft: $("#left-but"),
               buttonRight: $("#right-but"),
               altBox: $("#alt-text"),
               titleBox: $("#title-text")
</script>
</head>
    <body>
         <!-- This is the container for the carousel. -->
        <div id = "carousel1" style="width:256px; height:128px;background:#000;overflow:scroll;">           
            <!-- All images with class of "cloudcarousel" will be turned into carousel items -->
            <!-- You can place links around these images -->
            <img class = "cloudcarousel" src="/images/carousel/flags/flag1.png" alt="Flag 1 Description" title="Flag 1 Title" />
            <img class = "cloudcarousel" src="/images/carousel/flags/flag2.png" alt="Flag 2 Description" title="Flag 2 Title" />
            <img class = "cloudcarousel" src="/images/carousel/flags/flag3.png" alt="Flag 3 Description" title="Flag 3 Title" />
            <img class = "cloudcarousel" src="/images/carousel/flags/flag4.png" alt="Flag 4 Description" title="Flag 4 Title" />
        </div>
        <!-- Define left and right buttons. -->
        <input id="left-but"  type="button" value="Left" />
        <input id="right-but" type="button" value="Right" />
        <!-- Define elements to accept the alt and title text from the images. -->
        <p id="title-text"></p>
        <p id="alt-text"></p>
    </body>
</html>I have been working with ADF for a while and still don't know the "Best Practise" for integrating other API's - The JSF components are not exhaustive and sometimes you need to go out of the box. I would appreciate some help with this from an ADF expert.
Many thanks

</jsp:root>The problem I am now facing is
A) I cant replace the javascript with the af:resource tag as this then renders the Javascript in the BODY rather than the HEAD element of the HTML
B) I cant figure out how to queue an event in Javascript as I don't know where to attach the server listener. I know in the past the server listener goes inside the client componenet, but in this case I am using a HTML element to directly call the JavaScript
C) The navigation doesnt appear to work at the moment on IE8. I am programmatically calling submit on a button using Javascript
All help is greatly appreciated on the above points! Hopefully I can get to a working solution

  • Process Integrator question?

    Hi,
    I'm not sure where to ask a Process Integrator question so I have
    decided to ask here. I have been asked to look at business
    process (workflow) automation. I have read the datasheet and your
    whitepaper on Process Integrator and my question at the moment
    is "How do we integrate Process Integrator with existing sets of
    EJB's? How does it tie together with WebLogic 5.1 (is it a bunch
    of EJB's deployed on top of the app server ala Commerce Server)?
    I'm looking for more technical answers so that I have a reasonable
    understanding in estimating how much work/effort it would take
    to use this product. I also know that this is your engine for your
    future Collaborate product, however, that product will not be
    available soon enough to tackle our customers current needs.
    Thanks for your patience in reading this long message and
    I would appreciate any answers including "forget about it until
    Collaborate goes to market!". I would like to give an honest
    technical reason to my manager about why we should
    consider (or not consider) using Process Integrator.

  • Change background color - Integration Builder and others

    Hello all,
    Does anyone know how to change the background color displayed in the Integration Builder and other Java stack components of XI?
    We have a company policy that each different landscape (Dev, QA, Prod, etc) has a different background color in order to minimise the risk of mistakes (ie making an entry / setting in the wrong system).
    For the SAPGui components this is easy to do (just registry entries), but how can this be done for Java stack components?
    Any ideas appreciated (including other ways of highlighting which system you are on if differnt colors are not possible).
    Thanks,
    Brad

    Hi Brad,
    can can always have a look
    the top tab of the IB tools (IR, ID)
    you have server + instance number there
    with ID you will have different object names (business systems)
    for IR different authorizations (DEV, PRD...)

  • HT201272 I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there are less movies available there than there are in my i-Tunes account. I've done some looking around at questions from others, but haven't found an answer that works for me.

    I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there less movies available there than what is available in my i-Tunes library. I have 38 movies showing in my library but only 23 are showing in the Movies tab on the Apple TV. After researching this a little, there are only 23 movies showing under Purchased in the Quicklinks of my i-Tunes account. The majority of my collection are digital copy downloads that came from DVD purchases. Some of the missing movies were added in the past couple of months, the rest are a year-or-so old. I have done some looking around at questions from others, but I have not found an answer that will fix my situation. How do I update my library to get ALL of my movies to reflect that they were "Purchased"(as it says they were in their Properties)?

    The pros and cons of to CC or not to CC have been done to death
    Its a fact the CC model will work for some, especially newbies and small businesses.
    The risks associated with the CC model have been well documented.
    For long term users of CS perpetuals its generally a large hike up in cost compared to the upgrade system.
    Then there are the....... Adobe can rot it hell...... group who will never subscribe
    To each their own, you do the math to suit your cashflow whatever that is and then make an informed decision
    To those on the CC model, I'd like to offer some practical advice.........do not allow automatic updates.........make regular backups............develop an exit strategy of alternatives for when you can no longer afford the subscription costs............never ever assume that the Adobe update is bug free
    Enjoy your cloud
    Col
    Thank you for that post, and the advice. I just happen to be one of those who it does work for. I've been around long enough to know that CC isn't going to work for everyone(the large publishing/radio/web company I work for isn't upgrading to CC because of the costs involved). But it does for me as I potentially venture out into the full-time freelancing world and away from the more structured big office environment. I can't make decisions based on what is best for anyone else, or what will hurt or help Adobe. Just what affects me, and that's all.

  • Exception in CVS integration: comparing to other revision

    Hi
    If I try to compare a file with an other revision using the CVS JDeveloper integration ("compare to other revision" I get the following Exception:

    To reproduce the problem:
    - open any file from the applications-browser
    - click into the editor window to make it active
    - select the "Source"-View
    - right-click into the editor window and choose "Compare With / Other Revision"
    => an Error-Message "0" will be shown, Button Details reveals the stacktrace above
    The problem does NOT apear if you
    - right click in the Application-Browser
    - right click in the "Design" or "History" view of the selected file.
    The problem apears with any type of file (tested: jsp, xml. java)

  • Integration flexibility/capability question

    I am looking for some validation and/or clarification on what I can and cannot do with XML Publisher. Assume I have used the XML Publisher UI and the Word add-on to define a data model and a report template. I want to be able to:
    1. Use the XML Publisher UI to run the report immediately and either view it online or deliver it to external destination such as a printer or email address.
    2. Use the XML Publisher UI to set up a job to run the report in the future and deliver it to an external destination such as a printer or email address.
    3. View the report in a browser via a direct URL call to the XMLP server.
    4. Communicate with the XMLP server from a third-party application and run the report and deliver it to an external destination such as a printer or email address. Keep in mind that I want to be able to run the same report with the same data model that I created with the XMLP UI and ran in #1, #2, and #3.
    From what I have read and have experimented with, #1, #2, and #3 are possible (and easy). It is #4 that I am having trouble determining if it is possible. I am confused about what is possible with the bursting engine and it seems as though I will have to be able to perform the query within the third-part app and pass the results to the bursting engine rather than just specifying the data model that was already created via the XMLP UI. If so, this becomes a huge maintenance problem as we would have to keep the queries sync'ed up between the data model created via the XMLP UI and the query stored in the third-party app.
    Please let me know if my understandings are correct.

    yes,bandar. The route should exist and the handler should be created for the system B. But my system is 8.45 PT and 8.80 HRMS, the route is named as transation in this verion of system. I also created the subscription for the message. I am not familiar with HRMS 8.80 and do not know if it is enough for the configuration.
    Thanks for your reply.
    BTW, after i published the message , the sql is running background in my system B.

  • OAM SSO integration question:How can I get a user identity from ObSSOCookie

    We are building an OAM SSO solution. The App server is both on OAS and WLS. My question is that, after I get the ObSSOCookie from httprequest.
    I need to verify whether the ObSSOCookie is a valid one, and I also need to get user identity from the cookie and pass it to login module to populate user principal
    Of course, one way of doing that is to install access manager SDK and go from there. But we support multiple OS, it's a pain to add Access manager SDK to different installer for different OS.
    I am trying to use IdentityXML Functions which is a SOAP based webservice so that I don't need to worry about the OS platform. But I can't find a webService which returns user identity based on a valid ObSSOCookie. It seems that I can invoke webService with valide ObSSOCookie, but there is no way to get the user identity back. Am I missing something?
    Hope someone can help me out.
    Thanks.
    -Wei

    Ok. Sounds like you are a vendor trying to play well in an SSO environment.
    Here is what I tell OAM customers when they are evaluating software to see if it will cooperate with a system like OAM.
    Can the software's native authentication scheme be explicitly turned off (usually a configuration in a file)?
    Can the software be configured to accept a token of identity in the form of a Cookie or HeaderVar (also configurable in a file)?
    If the answer to both is yes, then the system is capable of 'third party trust' for authentication.
    From your perspective, your logic for login should be something like:
    Is my native authN turned off?
    If yes, can I find the cookie or header that I should be looking for?
    If yes, take the value and proceed to create user session for this identity per usual (except that you never evaluated the authN - you trust that it was done).
    If no, present the native AuthN scheme anyway.
    If you follow this pattern, you are in the good company of folks like PeopleSoft and Plumtree who had these types of integrations working long ago.
    Yes, there are other ways to do this but, in my humble opinion, this remains the most stable and effective pattern we see.
    What you ask for as the identity token value is up to you. It is often the login ID value that you would have used in your own authN procedure. There's nothing particularly sensitive about having a webgate set headers - they are only available to the server and not to the client. Cookie of course could be seen but can't be spoofed as the webgate has the final word on it's content.

  • ECC 5.0 and CRM 7.0 Integration Questions

    Hello,
    We are on ECC 5.0 and are part of a global implementation that is putting in CRM 7.0.
    We have a couple of issues/questions.
    1.  We want to integrate ECC Internal Orders with CRM Contracts and Orders.  However we don't see the ECC Internal Order type SAPS in ECC 5.0.  What release/plugin would give us SAPS Internal order type
    2.  We currently use CS and PM in ECC, and we have equipment and func. locations.  Do we need to be on a certain version/plugin to integrate Equipment and Func. Locations with CRM iBase?
    3.  Any tips/suggestions on integrating Vertex with CRM for taxes.
    Thanks
    chris

    Hi
    Here are the Answers
    1. We want to integrate ECC Internal Orders with CRM Contracts and Orders. However we don't see the ECC Internal Order type SAPS in ECC 5.0. What release/plugin would give us SAPS Internal order type
    - This is release indepedant- It is been available from R/3 4.7 so you should have it, if you dont have an SAPS order type, you have 2 options
              1. Create your own SAPS Order type
              2. Define RFC from  Client "000" and push the order type. This must be available in "000" as a standard delivery, may be your Basis did not move the order types properly.
    2. We currently use CS and PM in ECC, and we have equipment and func. locations. Do we need to be on a certain version/plugin to integrate Equipment and Func. Locations with CRM iBase?
    Yes you can have the equipment and Functional Locations, but for FLocs to download to CRM you need ECC6.0 with Sp6 anything below cannot be integrated or downloaded with CRM7.0 .. for Equipments any versions are fine and you do all configuration and customization in CRM
    3. Any tips/suggestions on integrating Vertex with CRM for taxes.
    Its a broad question, SAP provides standard integration option to vertex, and you integrate as needed..
    let me know if you need anything else.

    But since I upgraded to Aperture 1.5, I have the opposite problem -- how do I keep my pictures in Aperture but have iPhoto reference them? With previous versions of Aperture I already copied in all my iPhoto pictures and subsequently got rid of my iPhoto library (to save space).
    However, I would like to use iPhoto for its better Slideshow capabilities and FrontRow integration.
    So here are some questions:
    [1] Should I just set preference in iPhoto to not "Copy files to iPhoto Library Folder" and import the entire Aperture library?
    [2] Will it copy the albums from Aperture intact?
    [3] How much additional disk space (if any) will this use up?
    [4] What is the signifcance of setting up previews in Aperture (which I have done)?
    [5] In iPhoto I see that there is File>Show Aperture Library... where I can see thumbnails of my Aperture pictures. What else is this used for? (i.e. can I import pictures using this feature?)
    [6] If, subsequent to import, I add to the Aperture libary, will that automatically synchronize with the iPhoto library, or do I have to iPhoto-import the entire Aperture library every time new photos are added to the Aperture library?

    [1] Should I just set preference in iPhoto to
    not "Copy files to iPhoto Library Folder" and
    import the entire Aperture library?
    [2] Will it copy the albums from Aperture intact?
    This will work if your Aperture library's masters are stored by reference. However, it will only copy the masters, not an album structure. It won't copy your adjustments either. Just the masters.
    [3] How much additional disk space (if any) will this
    use up?
    iPhoto will build JPEGs for each master image, so you will use some disk space.
    [4] What is the signifcance of setting up previews in
    Aperture (which I have done)?
    Previews will allow you to browse your Aperture library in iPhoto. You can decide what images are made available to iPhoto. These are the versions, not the masters, so adjustments made in Aperture will be seen by iPhoto (as opposed to importing the masters).
    [5] In iPhoto I see that there is File>Show Aperture
    Library... where I can see thumbnails of my Aperture
    pictures. What else is this used for? (i.e. can I
    import pictures using this feature?)
    You can drag images from that window into iPhoto, which will import the JPEG previews so you can use them in slideshows, etc.
    [6] If, subsequent to import, I add to the Aperture
    libary, will that automatically synchronize with the
    iPhoto library, or do I have to iPhoto-import the
    entire Aperture library every time new photos are
    added to the Aperture library?
    There isn't any automatic synchronization, but I think the following is a good approach:
    1) When importing your masters into Aperture, don't have Aperture copy them from the CF card into the library. Instead give it a folder to copy them to. In addition, specify a sub folder that is "Project Name". By doing that, your import will be separate from other imports.
    2) Make sure iPhoto is set to reference images not copy them into the library.
    3) Then, when you want to synchronize with iPhoto, just drag the directories containing the projects that you want synchronized directly to iPhoto.

  • Integration questions, Notes/Domino/Symphony, Intentia Movex, Oracle Formula

    All,
    A potential Portal customer wants to integrate several systems
    into Portal, to show content and enter data. The systems in
    question are Notes/Domino/Symphony, Intentia Movex, Oracle
    Formula (and some others).
    So far, I know about the Notes portlet in the PDK. I also see
    that it is possible to access Domino via Java API's or HTTP, and
    IBM's "Lotus Enterprise Integrator" and "Lotus Connector for
    Oracle" could be used on the IBM side. On the Oracle side, I
    know about 9iAS interconnect, which could be used as the basis
    for the integration projects in question.
    Any hints? Reusable solutions for the listed systems?
    Thanks,
    Erik Hagen

  • Data Integrator Questions

    Hello,
    I was hoping for some guidence on how i can access sap data without using a BW system. The Data Integrator and RapidMarts seemed to be the main option. Just wondered if this was a suitable appraoch for my scenario.
    Im the UK, our clients sap infrastructure is based in Germany. We do all our development on that system and it holds all our custom tables which i need to report from.
    I initially installed the SAP Integration Tools for Crystal. I can build a report and dircetly see Tables and Function Modules, but the speed is really bad and prone to crashing.
    My new plan is to install Data Integrator on our Network. Then use that to pull all the tables and data we need into a RapidMart on our network. Then i can use our BO XI 3.1 edge installation to host all the reports / dashboards built off the mart.
    Is this a reasonable approach, am i missing anything or is this all theoretically possible??
    Any advice is great appreciated.
    Carston.

    One at the time....
    A RapidMart is nothing else than a jump-start. Imagine this: I have been asked to build a Data Warehouse for Cost Center Accounting. So I have asked:
    "What kind of reports?" "Costs per CostCenter, CostElement, Period".
    "Where does the data come from?" "This and that SAP table"
    "How can I implement the delta logic" "Using this approach...."
    "Are you fine with this Data Model to support your reports?"
    "Are you okay with the Naming Conventions I invented?"
    At the end I had a very good working Data Warehouse project for my customer. Then I got another Customer engagement where I again had to build a Cost Center Accounting Data Warehouse. Same questions, very similar answers. But instead of developing the data model, the ETL flow,.... all from scratch, I would have reused the previous code.
    In other words, a Rapid Mart is us running through a very professional Data Warehouse project with a couple of customers simultaniously and then we provide the code to you. So you are trading investment costs against Consulting costs and time and uncertainty. You might not like the Data Model, feel free to modify it. You need more, its just a first version of your Data Warehouse. You can't use 90% of wha we did - don't by the RapidMart but take your time to implement the Data Warehouse yourself.
