Authoring Oracle Helpf for the Web

Hi,
I've been tasked with creating the help file for the portal we are deploying. I've followed the steps outlined in the Oracle Help Guide and now have the following files:
cna.hs
cna_toc.xml
cnamap.xml
public_home.html
site_map.html
I don't quite understand what I am supposed to do next. If anybody can give me a hand I would appreciate it.

It looks like you've got a helpset file, a table of contents file, a map file, and some HTML content. That should give you a small, but functional helpset. Have you tried configuring OHW to display your helpset? What are your specific questions?

  • Oracle Help for the Web 2.0 Production

    Oracle Help for the Web 2.0 is now available on OTN Downloads.
    Oracle Help for the Web (OHW) 2.0 is a major update to the previous releases OHW 1.1x and OHW 1.0.x, and is designed and recommended to replace both.
    Some of the new features in 2.0 include the following:
    Support for Bookmarking Navigator Pages
    OHW 2.0 no longer uses frames to store navigational state on the webpage. Each navigator stores its complete state on the URL, allowing each page to be bookmarked. This includes TOC locations, keyword locations, and search runs. In the view topic page, the frame information is also saved, allowing a user to forward the link via email, etc to the displayed topic. In addition, if you navigate to a named anchor within a topic page, this page position is also saved and is bookmarkable.
    Multiple Locale Support in a Single Instance
    OHW 2.0 can now support multiple locales in the same servlet instance. After you register the helpsets in the OHW configuration file, the OHW servlet will automatically determine the best locale to use for a user request (based on browser settings and what locales are available), and display the localized helpset (along with a localized OHW chrome) to the user. This feature also means that if you navigate to a topic in English, and then send the link via email to a user whose browser supports Japanese, if the Japanese helpset is registered, the topic link will appear in Japanese to the second user.
    Search Engine Support
    OHW has been specially designed so that search engine crawlers can reach all hosted content (including table of contents, and index pages) and easily traverse within and between the available navigators. Page titles have also been redesigned to make pages easier to locate from within a search engine result set.
    Ability to Share Resources Across Localized Helpsets
    OHW can be configured so that helpsets can share resources such as images and CSS stylesheets. Since each localized helpset no longer needs its own resources, this can dramatically reduce the size of the deployed file.
    Relative Content Locations
    Content locations can now be specified relative to the OHW configuration file.
    True Popup Support
    OHW now properly supports Oracle Help popup links. Following this link will bring up a dynamic draggable DHTML window (or a normal popup window if the browser does not support it) with the requested topic page.
    All Level Merging in the Table of Contents
    Using the default TOC engines, each level of the TOC will merge like elements together. This change reflects modifications made to core Oracle Help classes and mimics the feature added to Oracle Help for Java (OHJ).
    New Tree-based Table of Contents Navigator
    The Tree-based TOC navigator shows the data in a heirarchical fashion and allows the user to see the full TOC (and not just a limited part of the TOC, as with previous versions of OHW). The tree-based TOC navigator is a standard navigator and can be added by including it in the helpset configuration file.

    Yes, I am now able to access this page and download OHW.
    Thanks very much,
    Lucie

  • D2000 Reports for the web PDF and FDF

    Has Oracle considered tighter integration of Adobe FDF (Forms
    Data Format) and Oracle Reports for the web?
    null

    Hi
    I think Portal applications are much more simple to build and lighter than developer apps, but Portal fits better to "simple" apps, without many business rules, complex validation/navigation etc. If the app you need to build has such characteristics, maybe you must use developer.
    lc
    Hello,
    I am thinking of creating an extranet and was going to use Portal - but coming from a forms/reports background I am thinking of looking at 9i forms/reports. Are they still thick clients as when I played around with web-deployed forms before they seemed pretty slow. Would I be better off writing it in Portal ?

  • Defining keys for the web

    Can anyone please let me know if it is possible to redefine keys for web forms. I can do this for the client/server version of the application but no for the web application.
    I have tried editing the FMRWEB.res file but cannot access it using Oracle Terminal.
    Any suggestions/assistance would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Dave

    You can directly open the FMRWEB.RES file in your editor (Notepad or Wordpad) and then change the keys according to the example shown in this file. You need not use Oracle Terminal.

  • Oracle Strategy for the UIX & BC4J in the new JDeveloper version

    What is Oracle Strategy for the UIX & BC4J in the new JDeveloper version:
    - Like DataBinding
    - BC4J Integration
    - UIX controller
    - Internationalization
    - Supporting for Palm,phone and pager.

    Hi,
    Are these questions all BC4J specific?
    General databinding info is discussed here:
    What's the developement direction of UIX?
    For BC4J/UIX integration, in 9.0.5 we will continue to support our existing api's, but you can also use uix as the view and bc4j as the model in adf, which is described here:
    http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/htdocs/905/sod_otn.html#adf
    Aside from bug fixes, I don't think there are major changes in the controller/internationization. Did you have specific questions about the controller and internationalization?
    We are planning to support Palm web browser 2.0, but due to the timing of the release of a platform that supports it and our own schedules, I don't think it will be officially supported in the 9.0.5 release. We won't have phone or pager support in 9.0.5.

  • How to Run Oracle Reports from the web.

    How can we run Oracle Reports from the web - for example from a portal such as "Gateway"
    This is a univeristy that implements Banner - so can we run them from within Banner?

    Yes, of course. And for running the reports-server you need an OAS. Maybe here is a good starting point http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/reports.html

  • HD video compressed for the web

    I was doing some testing trying to figure out the best way to compress the HD video I get from the Sony XDCAM HD for the web (streaming). I shoot in HD (1080/30P) because it's needed for our videos. The web streaming is secondary.
    I would prefer to make the web videos .flv because it works best and most easily cross-platform. In the real world, the majority of users have Windows PCs, which made me hesitant to use h.264 (.m4v) because it probably would require the average user to download things they may not wan to. Nonetheless, it has to be viewable on all computers in all browers.
    So, I took three 10 second clips of steady camera video with audio from the camera that I used in all tests. I will refer to them by clip number...
    Clip 1: 30P 16:9 High quality, 10sec=45mb
    Clip 2: 30P 16:9 Low Quality, 10sec=24mb
    Clip 3: 60i 16:9 High Quality, 10sec=45mb
    First I tested making FLV is Adobe CS3 Encoder using the High Quality (700) setting.
    Test 1 used size 848x480 (16:9)
    Clip 1: 1.3mb
    Clip 2: 1.1mb
    Clip 3: 1.2mb
    Comments: Looked very crisp, audio was clean, slightly darker image than original on default settings
    Test 2 used size 480x270 (16:9)
    Clip 1: 1.2mb
    Clip 2: 1.1mb
    Clip 3: 1.1mb
    Comments: Looked very crisp, audio was clean, slightly darker image than original on default settings
    Next, I tested making .m4v using the h.264 iPod settings in Compressor.
    Test 1 used size 640x370.
    Clip 1: 240kb
    Clip 2: 1440kb
    Clip 3: 204kb
    Comments: Image wasn't quite as clean as the Flash files, but still good. Much lighter/brighter than the Flash files also. Low Quality HD video had high file size... why? I don't know, but I don't shoot on LQ for things anyway.
    Test 2 used size 320x180.
    Clip 1: 160kb
    Clip 2: 865kb
    Clip 3: 865kb
    Comments: Image wasn't quite as clean as the Flash files, but still good. Much lighter/brighter than the Flash files also. Low Quality HD video had high file size... also the 60i file...why? I don't know.
    In conclusion, I'm lucky that I shoot 30P since it worked well in all areas. The h264 codec provides a much smaller file size than Flash, with a good image. Amazing considering we started with a 45MB clip. What are the standards for aspect ratios for putting 16:9 video on the web? I haven't heard much set in stone like you have for 4:3 video. Nonetheless, the 640x360 or 480x270 seem to be a nice size for most uses.
    I have heard that in Flash 9 you can chance the m4v extension to flv and it will work. IF that is true, that would be great because now my concern is that a base Windows PC cannot play these .m4v images without plugins/codecs. I suppose right now its a tradeoff between smaller file size/less compatibility with h264 or larger file size, great compatibility with Flash.
    Any comments or suggestions to help out would be great. I typed this fast so forgive me if I left out any important info.

    Hi APPLE27:
    One comment from your post that immediately caught my attention was this, "Nonetheless, it has to be viewable on all computers in all browsers."
    Unfortunately, it is unrealistic to expect one digital video file to be viewable on "all computers in all browsers" as there are simply too may variations in both hardware and software.
    A common approach when offering digital video is to provide two formats to choose from and then within each of those two formats a few versions of the video for different bandwidths.
    For example, a web site might offer Video for Windows and QuickTime. For each of these, there would be a low bandwidth Video for Windows file and QuickTime file and a high bandwidth Video for Windows file and QuickTime file (four files total). Of course, there's also Flash Video, Real Video, MPEG1, and so on.
    For better or worse, YouTube.com has allowed video content creators the realistic expectation of creating a digital video file that is viewable on "most computers". But, the video is unavoidably tied to that web site.
    When it comes to online distribution of video, it's still very open ended.
    Also, computers are not all that's out there. Mobile devices are a huge market and you'd be hard pressed to create a single digital video file that will play on all mobile devices (iPhone, iPod Touch, Palm Treo, Sony PSP, etc.) either from local storage or from a mobile browser.
    QuickTime offers a solution for creating a referencing movie - one file that links to other digital video files, but it too is imperfect at best when it comes to reaching the broadest audience possible.
    With my few comments here, I'm just scratching the surface. But, it all starts where you are right now: caring about the image quality when exporting from your edited master.

  • Exporting FCP 16:9 to QT for the web in 16:9?

    Hello everyone,
    I recently began doing my projects in 16:9 mode. I shoot them with my GL2's in 16:9, then capture to FCP as usual. FCP then automatically recognizes the 16:9 footage and adjusts everything perfectly for me. I figured out how to get the footage to DVDSP by 'forcing letterbox'. This plays the true 16:9 footage on a widescreen TV perfectly.
    Now, I've come to another bridge that I can't seem to cross... that is... exporting the video to QT for the web in 16:9. I did a lot of searching here and all of the topics related to this did not help me at all. So, what I'm going to do is explain what I used to do when I shot in 4:3 mode:
    1. In FCP... File>Export>QT Conversion
    2. Format: QT Movie> Options
    3. Settings> Sorenson Video 3
    4. Frame Rate>15
    5. Key Frames: Every 150 frames
    6. Compressor> Medium
    7. Data Rate: Automatic
    8. OK
    9. Sound>Settings>Mpeg-4 Audio, 16bit, Stereo
    10. OK
    11. Prepare for Internet Streaming> Fast Start
    12. OK
    13. SAVE
    This usually turns a full sized 5 minute clip into a nice little presentation for the web no larger than 35 or so MB's. You can see a boat load of files like that on my website at (www.buerhausdesign.com).
    Now, what I want to do is get a similar sized video for the web, only in 16:9 as I'm now shooting and editing in 16:9.
    Does anyone have step-by-step instructions on how to do this? I know it's possible as I see movie trailors in 16:9 all the time in QT.
    Any help would be appreciated:)
    Matt

    Nope, tried all of that. It stretches the image way beyond 16:9. Currently, if I export as a 4:3 file, the widescreen displays correctly, but I get two black bars at the top and bottom of the frame. Manually sizing to a 16:9 size, to say 720x404, stretches everything... including the unwanted black bars.
    When I export to DVDSP, the black bars go away when I 'force letterbox'. There's gotta be a way to get it to work in QT.

    I've just bought a Macbook Pro 15" and I'm trying to use Photoshop, but the resolution its displaying the images at for 100% are too small. I have to design for the web, so need to be intricate with detail, but I'm finding it adjusts the resolution of the image right down. (I mean you can see the image clearly, but it's too small to edit). When I look at Safari and see a web page at 100% it's clear, but the same page displayed in Photoshop CC appears 50% of the size (even though it says it's 100%)   If I move the application window to another screen it adjusts it correctly  – leaving all the pallettes, menus and tools correctly sized as they are on the retina display   Is there some way to adjust the way Photoshop CC displays images so it is more consistent with what you actually see?   There doesn't seem to be any answer on the Adobe forum, so hopefully someone here can shed some light.  MacBook Pro with Retina display, 15", OS X Yosemite (10.10.2), Photoshop CC 2014

    I tested both ways. With "open in low resolution" ckecked the size of the images is cool, but it is low-resolution including Photoshop appearance.
    If "open in low resolution" is unckecked the appearance is good but the very small size.
    See the image below. It has 650 x 732 px, 72 dpi. The font of the text "Neste aniversário ..." is with 18pt.

  • Saving JPG to PNG using Save for the Web

    Morning
    I came across Paul Riggott's script for saving PSD to PNG which I changed to JPG to PSD.
    The only problem with this is that the file size in most cases is larger than the original.
    Is there a way to do a save as for the web as well?
    Here is the  original code:
    #target photoshop
    var imageFolder = Folder.selectDialog("Select top folder to process");
    var folderList=[];
    if (imageFolder != null)  {
    processFolder(imageFolder);
    folderList.unshift(imageFolder);
    createPNGfromJPG(folderList);
    function createPNGfromJPG(folderList){
    for(var a in folderList){
      var fileList = folderList[a].getFiles ("*.jpg");
       for (var z in fileList){
        var file = fileList[z];
        open(file);
        var Name = fileList[z].name.replace(/\.[^\.]+$/, '');
        var saveFile = File(decodeURI(fileList[z].path+"/"+Name+".png"));
        SavePNG(saveFile);
        app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.DONOTSAVECHANGES);
    function processFolder(folder) {
        var fileList = folder.getFiles()
         for (var i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) {
            var file = fileList[i];
    if (file instanceof Folder) {
      folderList.push(file); 
           processFolder(file);
    function SavePNG(saveFile){
        pngSaveOptions = new PNGSaveOptions();
        pngSaveOptions.embedColorProfile = true;
        pngSaveOptions.formatOptions = FormatOptions.STANDARDBASELINE;
        pngSaveOptions.matte = MatteType.NONE;
        pngSaveOptions.quality = 1;
    pngSaveOptions.PNG8 = false;
        pngSaveOptions.transparency = true;
    activeDocument.saveAs(saveFile, pngSaveOptions, true, Extension.LOWERCASE);
    Any help or support to head me in the right direction would be appreciated.

  • Problems with PSE 10 when saving for the web.

    I'm having problems saving for web with PSE 10. I edit in RAW, edit in PSE 10, save as Jpeg, resize and save for the web.  Results are muddled and not sharp (looks cartoonish). Also, there is no metadata when you look at the image properties.  I uninstalled the program and installed again. No change.

    Are you resizing the photo before save for web?
    What settings are you using in the save for web dialog for the jpeg quality?
    If you compress the jpeg too much (low quality settings below 60), that can make your photos look bad.
    And save for the web in pse 10 automatically strips any metadata in order to keep the file sizes smaller.
    Also, the save for web in pse 10 has a bad habit of not remembering your last used settings, so it's good to verify that your actually set to jpeg instead of the default GIF setting.
