Changing colors/style sheets with custom header portlets?

We would like write a completely custom header portlet (a standard portlet that is designated as a header, notusing the branding server), but I can't seem to find a way to change the style sheets in subportals when I do this.
Am I missing something? Do you have to use the branding engine to control style sheets in subportals, or is there another way?

The way Branding accomplishes what you're looking for is by setting a portlet setting called "Portal-Style" on the header portlet using the EDK. This setting can be set either as an Admin level or CommunityPortlet level setting. When the portal loads a page with a header, it will check to see if the header has this preference set (first on the CommunityPortlet level, if the header is on a community, and then on the Admin level). If so, the portal will cause everything to use the stylesheet specified in the setting value.
The setting value is the name of the stylesheet. For example, if you wished every page displaying the header to be orange, you could set the "Portal-Style" Admin setting on the portlet to a value of "mainstyle17", the orange-themed stylesheet.
Perhaps I'm not setting the preference properly. Sniffing the HTTP headers between the gadget and portal servers, I do see:
[HTTP_CSP_GLOBAL_GADGET_PREF] => Portal-Style=mainstyle17
(I also tried it with Portal%u002DStyle, but neither works)
The remote server header portlet doesn't seem to be picking up the fact that there is an admin pref to override the main page's stylesheet. Did I create the portlet wrong, or am I setting the preference incorrectly, or what? Thanks

Re-Creating the Help button in a Custom Header portlet

I've disabled the Top Bar from my portal, and need to create the Help within my custom Header portlet. I can't find any code on how to have it dynamically work? Is it even possible?

It is possible. Here is a custom function we wrote:
/***ReturnsanHTMLAnchorthatimplementscontextsensitivehelp.Note,ifeither*imgHelpORstrHelpTextarenotnull,bothdefaultswillbeclearedandoverridden**@paramimgHelp-Includeanoptionaloverrideimage-nullifdefault*@paramstrHelpText-Includeoptionaloverridetext-nullifdefault*@paramasOwner-Theactivityspacecurrentlyinuse**@returnHTMLAnchor*/
publicstaticHTMLAnchor GetHelpLink(HTMLImg imgHelp, String strHelpText, AActivitySpace asOwner){HTMLAnchor result = [b]null;
//Get the default help anchor
result = HTMLConstructHelpers.GetHelpAnchor( asOwner );
if(null!= imgHelp || null!= strHelpText)
//Clear the existing default help image and text
result.ClearInnerHTMLElements();
if(null!= imgHelp)
result.AddInnerHTMLElement(imgHelp);
if(null!= strHelpText)
//Add in our own custom text
result.AddInnerHTMLString(strHelpText);
returnresult;

How to print jTable with custom header and footer....

Hello all,
I'm trying to print a jTable with custom header and footer.But
jTable1.print(PrintMode,headerFormat,footerFormat,showPrintDialog,attr,interactive)
does not allow multi line header and footer. I read in a chat that we can make custom header and footer and wrap the printable with that of the jTable. How can we do that..
Here's the instruction on the chat...
Shannon Hickey: While the default Header and Footer support in the JTable printing won't do exactly what you're looking for, there is a straight-forward approach. You can turn off the default header/footer and then wrap JTable's printable inside another Printable. This wrapper printable would then render your custom data, and then adjust the size given to the wrapped printable
But how can i wrap the jTable's Printable with the custom header and footer.
Thanks in advance,

I also once hoped for an easy way to modify a table's header and footer, but found no way.
Yet it is possible.

Changing the portal banner with customized banner!

Hi Friends,
I want to change the portal banner with customized banner with logo. So for that, I created a customized banner and named as bg_banner.jpg by renaming the original as bg_banner1.
I modified them in both paths
D:\OracleBI\web\app\res\s_oracle10\b_mozilla_4\ and
D:\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\res\s_oracle10\b_mozilla_4
Also restarted both Presentation Services and OC4J
But still, I'm unable to view my customized banner instead I see the original LOGO missing. But able to view the rest of the banner with standard dashboard links.
Please correct me, where am I missing and do the needful.
Best regards
User622248

Use a copy of the original and paint in this.
Than replace it there:
\bi\web\app\res\s_oracle10\b_mozilla_4
\bi\web\app\res\s_oracle10\b_mozilla_4\rtl
\bi\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\res + rtl.
Perhaps you forgot the \rtl\ banner?
Regards,
Stefan

I am facing problem while i create a xls sheet with some Header.

I am facing problem while i create a xls sheet with some Header.
If i give the hed names as FirstName , LastName its comming fine.
FirstName | LastName
--------------------------|------------------------
But when i specify a string like New"Deal , New"approach .
= "New"Deal " | =" New"approach" .
--------------------------|------------------------
Problem is:
It's adding = sign in front of the header name.
I dont want that = to be in front of the headername.
//rep.addColumn((String) itr.next());
The above code is used to add the header name to the xls sheet.
The argument will come as New"Deal
But after seeing xls it has become ="New"Deal "

Using a style sheet with hbj:link

Hi guys,
I'm looking for a way to use a style sheet that I've created in my jsp with an hbj:link tag. Here's my style sheet:
<STYLE type="text/css">
a.button
a.button:active, a.button:focus, a.button:hover
</STYLE>
Here's my link:
<hbj:link
     id="<%=linkId%>"
     text="Sign Me Up"
     tooltip="<%=toolTip%>"
     onClick="signupLinkClick"
     linkDesign="REPORTING"
     >
</hbj:link>
I've tried wrapping an <a href="#" class="button"> tag around the hbj:link tag, but that didn't work. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi,
there is a possibility to change the default style, but is not really clean. The browser when rendering a tag uses the last defined style for this tag. So you can redefine it. I used it in a DynPage, it worked ok.
First run the iview with standard style (normally). Look into the sourc of the page and find your "Sign Me Up" link. Check the class of the <a> tag. For instance it is a "urLnk".
Now just modify your style definition:
<STYLE type="text/css">
urLnk.button {
padding: 2px 10px 3px 10px;
border: 2px outset #cccccc;
background: #C0C0C0;
color: #000;
font-size: 11px;
text-decoration: none;
height: 19px;
vertical-align: bottom;
urLnk.button:active, a.button:focus, a.button:hover {
border: 2px inset #c0c0c0;
vertical-align: middle;
background: #cccccc;
color: #000000;
text-decoration: none;
</STYLE>
and so on...
Hope this helps,
Romano

Sales order display-how to change color of item with high level 0

Please does anyone know how can i chenge the color of item with high level 0 in display of sales order in red or yellow so it can be seen better for better searching on page?
thank you in advance...
regards..

You'd probably have to do a modification in SD for that. But what you can do, is make the higher level item not changeable. You could also set the display range to UHAU to only see the main items, do this in transaction VOV8. Or you could change your item category in VOV7 only to show main items.
good luck

Using RoboHelp 8 style sheet with RoboHelp 9

Howdy. My issue:
I was using RoboHelp 8 at work to craft a web help document out of a Word file. We have a company CSS we apply to web help for look, feel, etc. It worked in RoboHelp 8, but not in 9 despite following the same Word Import procedure. Needed to upgrade to RH9 because RH8 was not recognizing our version of Word to compile and create the web help files.
How can I make my old style sheet work with RH9? Is there some step I'm missing? Help appreciated with 20.1 bazillion thank yous in advance.

Hi there
First we need to know what type of string you are using and obtain an exact measurement.
I'm joking, of course, but the fact here is, we need more information. Things like:
You said "...despite following the same Word Import procedure.". What are the exact steps in said procedure, please?
Note that it's a simple process to ignore any style sheet during the Word import, then later import just the company CSS file and associate it with your topics. All of that can be done in perhaps 30 seconds or so.
Cheers... Rick

Download internal table data into excel sheet with column heading and data

Hi,
I am having one internal table with column headings and other table with data.

It should ask the user for file name to save it on their own name. They should give the file name in runtime and it should be downloaded into an excel sheet.
Can anyone tell what is the right function module for downloading these two internal table data with column heading and data.
what we have to do for storing the file name in runtime.
Can anyone help me on this.

Java code to connect to WSDL file with custom header

Hi all,
I am an absolute noob when it comes to Java. I need to write a Java app that can connect to a WSDL file with a custom header. Basically, all I need to do is connect to the web service and pass a username and password.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
A

Better you use tools which can generate code(interface,proxy and stub classes) which can take care of calling all the WSDL defined methods..i generally use RAD not an open source as per OP use eclipse open source or netbeans which can do the trick

Calling AdvancedDataGridSortItemRenderer with custom header

HI,
I have searched for a few hours now no luck...
I have an advanced datagrid, with a lot of columns showing
small check mark icon for boolean value.
To make the columns smaller, I made a simple headerRenderer
that rotates the labels 90 degrees, so they run vertical.
but I lose the sort arrow these columns.. Looking the docs
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/mx/controls/advancedDataGridClasses/AdvancedDataG ridHeaderRenderer.html
under
sortItemRenderer
Note that the sort item renderer controls the display of the
sort icon and sort sequence number. A custom header renderer must
include code to display the sort item renderer, regardless of
whether it is the default or custom sort item renderer.
How do I call that from my code

Hi Juan,
Here I have written the form and program name.
And here is the 185F definition.
