Customizing Cp HTML output

I'm looking for a little assistance regarding the best way to insert an HTML + Flash wrapper around the wrapper that is automatically generated by Cp4 in its HTML output. I'm a FL newbie/intermediate DW user, and I don't want to screw up the existing scripting in the HTML template files.
So I guess my question really surrounds best practice for adding a header/footer/maybe rt-or-left nav frame around the content that CP produces. Would anyone who has done this be willing to share some code (stripped of your content, if you prefer) that might help me achieve this?
Or, if I'm thinking about this in entirely the wrong way, can someone point me in the right direction? I feel like I'm being particularly dense about this!
Thanks in advance!!

Using Custom XSLT File for html output file

Hi all
I have probably rather a silly question but I have not found a solution yet.
I would like to use a custom XSLT file, which I already have and is working, within a Biztalk Map. The custom XSLT is generating a html file out of an xml file. However I'm not able to succeed so far because I have probably some issues in defining the correct
target schema.
The output that I get at the moment is just a duplicate of the input, probably because I have used the schema for source and target.
So my question is, how do I create a html file out of an xml with a custom XSLT file?
Sorry if this is a nooby question but I couldn't find an answer.

Hi Jerome,
Sorry, your question is not very clear. "I would like to use a custom XSLT file, which I already have and is working, within a BizTalk Map. The custom XSLT is generating a html file out of an xml file" - You have an XSLT which you use for map and how
its generating a HTML file? Are you using something like this?
Changing an XML Response to an HTML output using a Map
If your requirement is to output the html file from the received XML file using XSLT, then use a custom pipeline at send port like XSLT Transform Component and provide the XST which would change the XML to HTML. Here is an example of an XST which I have
used in the past, which converts the received OrderResponse XML to nicely formatted HTML.

CQ inserting divs into HTML output?

Hey y'all,
I'm working on a project using CQ5.5 and am noticing a bizarre result in the HTML that I am getting from my templates. I'm noticing divs inserted that appear nowhere in my jsp files that I can only assume are being put there by CQ (because the naming convention "cq-gen#" appears). Example below (textandheading is the name of a custom component I created):
<div id="cq-gen7" class="textandheading text parbase textheading cq-element-textheading">
This wouldn't be a problem except that some of these divs are overriding the styles from the CSS I'm using and causing my text/images etc to display incorrectly. Has anyone experienced anything like this before? It's inserting a whole bunch of divs like the one I pasted in above all over the place. I would like to find a way of removing these divs from my HTML output.
Thanks in advance for your help!

How to format html output of a servlet

Hello.
My servlet/JSP is processed by custom tags and XSL Translation.
After all its HTML output looks not formatted.
How to format it?
It is possible in a standard way (using a web.xml'd directive)?
What roughly I want:
<html>
<body>
<body>
<html>

I'd try
indent="yes" in your XSLT's<xsl:output .../>element.
Hope this helps,

Missing a single space in html output

Hello to all,
take a look at the following code copied from a View
<% DATA: eins TYPE STRING VALUE 'ClassEins',
zwei TYPE STRING VALUE 'ClassZwei'. %>
<span id="Test1" class="<%=eins%> ClassZwei">test it</span>
<span id="Test2" class="ClassEins <%=zwei%>">test it</span>
it works fine if compression is set to NONE, but if compression is set to 1 (remove spaces) or 2 (remove spaces, CR, LF) the html output looks like this:
<span id="Test1" class="ClassEinsClassZwei">test it</span>
<span id="Test2" class="ClassEins ClassZwei">test it</span>
Where is the single space? Whats wrong? Why is the first space removed, but the second isnt?

Thilo,
At this stage we are not planning a kernel patch, unless your business case is really pressing. (In which case update OSS message so that rethink why nein is the right answer.) We have actually spend a number of hours to find where this is stripped (by accident), and see that the price to fix this, is very high for us. The truth is that this is a minor problem that only happens when you active the additional compression, where our first suggestion would be to just skip the compression for this page. (All of this been said, we will keep it on the toDo list, and see if can get the resources at same stage to dive into kernel development again.)
(Just for interest, not even myself could remember where some of this code is executed. Your problem provided a nice trip down memory lane!)
As for the back tics, they are string literals, and are space sensitive in ABAP. An example:
CONCATENATE 'a ' 'b ' 'c ' INTO s. --> s = "abc".
CONCATENATE `a ` `b ` `c ` INTO s. --> s = "a b c ".
The nice thing about this is that it is now possible to write in ABAP strings that contain <b>both</b> HTML and JavaScript all in one:
s = `<body onload="myFunc('JSparm');">`.
We use " and ' for the HTML and JavaScript, and the ` to build the ABAP string. Makes the Java colleagues just jealous of our writing style:)

I built a website for a customer using HTML only, so it would work on everything, but some of the text numbers are not clear on the ipad. It works perfectly on all the other browsers.

I built a website for a customer using HTML only, so it would work on any browser, and it works perfectly on everything except ipad safari. I'm loosing information with most of my text numbers - instead of being black they are displaying a 'ghost' image (white) of the numbers.
Is this a memory issue, or cache issue, or something else? I've downloaded iCab and the site works perfectly with it.
Also wondering if I can manually reload/refresh web pages in iPad Safari.
Since most people with iPads will use Safari rather than iCab, I have to tweak this site to work in Safari.

Detecting phone numbers and making them clickable is a feature of the browser, and rebuilding your web-site links will not make any difference. Its done when the page is shown in the browser, not when the page is created.
According to the Safari iOS developers guide, you can turn these data detectors off using this code:
<meta name = "format-detection" content = "telephone=no">

Help: No Parameters, HTML Output from Java Servlet

I have a Java Servlet that reads parameters passed from an HTML form and displays them to another HTML page. I know the servlet is being invoked; however, I am not seeing any HTML output. Sending the output to a file reveals the parameters are coming in as NULL as well.
I attempted a simple sample app with the same results. Here is what I am running:
The HTML Form:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Collecting Three Parameters</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY BGCOLOR="#FDF5E6">
<H1 ALIGN="CENTER">Collecting Three Parameters</H1>
<FORM ACTION="ThreeParams">
First Parameter: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="param1"><BR>
Second Parameter: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="param2"><BR>
Third Parameter: <INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="param3"><BR>
<CENTER><INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT"></CENTER>
</FORM>
</BODY>
</HTML>
The Java Code:
public class ThreeParams extends HttpServlet {
public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request,
HttpServletResponse response)
throws ServletException, IOException {
response.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
String title = "Reading Three Request Parameters";
out.println("<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 " +
"Transitional//EN\">\n" +
"<BODY BGCOLOR=\"#FDF5E6\">\n" +
"<H1 ALIGN=\"CENTER\">" + title + "</H1>\n" +
"<UL>\n" +
" <LI><B>param1</B>: "
+ request.getParameter("param1") + "\n" +
" <LI><B>param2</B>: "
+ request.getParameter("param2") + "\n" +
" <LI><B>param3</B>: "
+ request.getParameter("param3") + "\n" +
"</UL>\n" +
"</BODY></HTML>");
What happens when I "submit" from the form is the same form reloads with the query string in the URL: "http://localhost:8080/ThreeParams/?param1=1&param2=2&param3=3"
Any assistance with either (or both) would be thoroughly appreciated:
a) why the parameters are not being passed correctly to the servlet
b) why the HTML output page is not displayed
Thanks in advance!

Reports 3/6i HTML Output Print problem

Hi!
I am using Reports 3 to generate HTML output but when I print this HTML output, it does not break at Oracle Reports Page break. It looks like the browser takes its default settings for margins. I am using IE 5.5.
I tried the following options
1. Using { page-break-after: always } option in 'After Page Value' of Report Escapes property (Report)
2. Changing margin settings of browser, but was not able to change them to 0.
I want to print the HTML report with page breaks where Oracle marks as Page Break.
If possible, Please do write me at [email protected]
Thanks,
Praveen Kumar

Praveen,
When you generate a HTML page in Reports, you are generating a single page document that is then intepretted by the browser. You are correct that when you then print this page from the browser then it will not necessarily break at the same point as the reports page breaks.
The only way to guarantee that you will get the same breaks is to use a different format. Most commonly people use PDF format when they want the printed page to match exactly what's on the screen. Alternatively you could include a link on the HTML rendition of the report that resubmits the report to the server but instructs the server to print the report directly.
Hope this helps,
Danny

HTML output and missing graph

I am developing a report having a graph in BI Publisher 10.1.3.3.0. When the report o/p is genereated to PDF, the graph is showing up, but the same report doesnt return the chart in HTML output (it shows small icon in the place of graph). I followed Tim Dexter's blog http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2006/10/31 here. But, I didnt understand where i need to make the settings for 'Base image URI' and 'Image file directory' .
In the Runtime configuration properties for this report, under HTML output, I see the foll.
-show header
-show footer
-replace smart quotes
-character set
-make HTML output accessible
-user percentage width for table columns.
I even tried the o/p in excel and rtf but, the graph is missing in the o/p as well.
Thanks in advance

Can someone help me how to get the graph in HTML?

Can SQL Developer be used for Oracle Support "HTML Output" Diag Scripts ?

Hi All,
Oracle Support has asked me to run a diagnostic script (OTL_Diag.sql for anyone familar with the script) that produces output in HTML format using SQL*Plus to help troubleshoot an OTL problem we are having. Unfortunately I don't have SQL*Plus installed and my company is not on board with me installing it because of the SQL*NET connection required. Instead I have access to SQL Developer 3.1.0.7. While this works fine for most situations I'm having problems generating the required .html output file that Support needs.
I've tried runing the OTL_Diag.sql a couple of ways using SQL Developer. First, I opened the file from SQL Developer and using the Run Script functionality (F5) I executed the code that way. This method did give me an opportunity to input the necessary parms and it did create the 'start' of the HTML file on my (Windows) file system, but the script seemed to abort with a java error that indicated some sort of format error (sorry, I'm not a java person so I can't provide any more info, but I'll be glad to get the exact error message if anyone thinks that will help solve my issue).
My second approach was to open a SQL Window where I typed in @C:\OTL_Diag.sql without quotes. This approach also gave me the opportunity to enter the necessary input parms and it seemed to end normally. It also created the 'start' of the diaganostic output file on my Windows file system, but it 'completed' before any of the 'real' diaganostic output was written to the .html file.
The Metalink note clearly specifies that the OTL_Diag.sql script is to be run with SQL*Plus 10.2 or above so I don't think I can complain too loudly to Oracle about this...but given that I don't have access to this product (and it is useless for me to again ask to install it) I am hoping someone out there has some ideas or insight as to how I can use SQL Developer to execute this diag script in a manner that will produce the required .html output file.
Thanks in advance to anyone taking time to read my post !!
Jeff

As a result, at this point in time my only available tool to run the OTL_Diag.sql script (provided by Oracle Support) is SQL Developer
>
Then you will have to edit the script, break it into pieces, execute each piece manually and save the output to feed into the next piece as required based on what the script is actually doing. Don't post the script or contents as that will likely violate your support agreement.
As I already mentioned the script may be using syntax and/or commands that are simply not supported by sql*developer. One likely area is the script may be producing intermediate output scripts that are then processed by a later portion of the script. If that is the case then my suggestion to execute the pieces manually should work but you will need to do some trial-and-error to see.
Even if you appear to be successful you will still have an issue when you communicate the results of your 'test' to Oracle support and they determine you didn't follow their instructions to use the proper tool.
Sounds like your management is either ignorant or incompetent so I suggest you cover yourself by documentating the instructions from Oracle support and the direct orders you were given to disregard those instructions. No need to discuss that issue further but clearly there are resources available somewhere in the org that has the proper privileges or they wouldn't be able to maintain and support the database. If they want to pay for support they should heed their advice. Nuff said.

Tabs in HTML output

We have a very large RoboHelp for Word project (24 source
files, 2500 topics). Do to Vista issues we are converting from
WinHelp to HTML output.
In the Word source files, allignment (within lines) is
controlled by left Tabs. The WinHlep output is fine. It appears the
the tabs (as well as multiple spaces) are ignored in the
HTMLoutput. A review of the HTML spurce code reveals that tabs are
coverted to &nbsp on compilation.
What are my options?

> I do suppose there is always the option of continuing to
author using RoboHelp for Word. After all, you may use this

are creating HTML outputs you may as well be using a

With all due respect, Rick (and much is indeed due in the
right contexts) this doesn't help the original poster. The tabs
issue is as you point out a quirk of the HTML world, and the only
benefit of moving to an HTML editor in that respect is to make it
apparent up front that tabs can't be handled sensibly. As you say,
get used to it - if you are using HTML-based output, you can't line
things up with tabs. You can use tables, but that's a major editing
operation with 2500 topics whatever tool you are using to write the
help. I suppose the dignity of the problem depends on how important
the lining up is in the final output.
I may be reactionary, but I stick to Robohelp for Word even
when I am generating Webhelp format. Sure, there are drawbacks, but
IMHO Word offers a vastly superior authoring environment to
one-topic-at-a-time HTML editors. The HTML editor might be a tool
created to work with HTML files, but that doesn't automatically
mean it's a good tool for the job.

Image not displayed in html output used webservice to store in a location

hi
we have used webservices to store the pdf and html outputs but the problem is when we are seeing the preview in the bi publisher we can see the image in pdf and html but when we run through webservices and see the output files that are stored in some location image in the html output is not displayed but in the pdf we can see the image.
i have used the direct insertion image option in the header section. is the problem because i have used the direct insertion.
can you give the idea how to import logo from an external location so that we can check the if it is problem with direct insertion or problem with the webservice as we are storing the output files outside the catlog but it may not be wrong because in pdf we can see the image.
I am not having any idea how to solve thsi issue..
Sorry to bother you with these many questions
Thanks in Advance
Have a Nice day.

Please state which BI Publisher version you are using.
In case it is 10g then please always test the application with the latest patch first!.
BTW today there is been a new patch 11846804 released for 10.1.3.4.1 (March 2011).

Help with formatting parameters in html output?

Hi --
I would like to use a style sheet to adjust the way that javadoc displays lists of parameters below each method. In the HTML output, the code around the parameter name and description looks like this:
<dd><code>filterContainers</code> - True if the containers within the database
are to be considered individually during task assignment; false if the entire database is to be assigned as a single task.
</dd>
I apologize if this is basic CSS question, but I don't understand how to change the way 'filterContainers' is formatted -- maybe make it italic or something. I was also hoping to increase the padding below each parameter name/description because they seem to squished together.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Jen

Add this to stylesheet.css to make "filterContainers" italic:
dl dd dl dd code {
font-style: italic;
}This adds space below lines inside dd
dl dd dl dd {
padding-bottom: 3px;
}(You could change it to padding-top to add the space above instead.)
The sequence "dl dd dl dd code" is the nested hierarchy of HTML tags relative to body.
Here are the CSS elements defined above: (CSS 2.0)

Crosstab column width in HTML output

Hi,
I have problem with column width in a crosstab report with html ouput.
I can not find a way to control the column width, and the more I try to control this either with word table properties or with xsl attribute, the more messy it gets!
Now the columns gets superwide and I dont have clue how to control this...
Ant ideas of how to set the column width in the rtf template fot html output?
It looks fine with pdf output...
Br
Magnus

Thanks for your tip, but I did not do the trick exactly.
Can you get help for this in the User guide? I have read it thru without anything...
Anyway, I couldnt get it right with the Autofit to Window either, I need to set this for specific columns only, but when I do it on the first columns MS Word rearrange the whole table...
Do you use it on certain columns or the whole table?
I have to say, I have a quite complex template with several tables within other tables, and this maight mess things up...

Getting question marks in html output when xml file has an mdash or rsquo

I have a java servlet that gets an xml file out of ifs, applies
a style sheet to it, and sends it to the browser as html.
I have:
DOMparser parser = new DOMParser();
parser.parse(XmlUrl);
The characters ampersand, greater than, less than, and
apostrophe work fine.
HOWEVER, When the xml file has an mdash(&#X2014) or a rsquo
(&#x2019) in it, my html output in IE shows up with question
marks where these characters are supposed to be.
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? I don't understand
why it would work with some special characters and not others?

UPDATE
Compiling from command line I found out that the class definition for oracle.oats.scripting.modules.basic.api.IteratingVUserScript is missing. Do you know what .jar file contains this class?
Thanks.
Fede.
