Disappearing content area in edit view

Hello,
In contribute, the content of my page dissapears when I click to "edit page." My other pages work fine when I click to edit, it is just one page that the content dissapears. Any ideas of how to get that back?
Below is the page before I click "edit page". The second image is what happens to the page after I click "edit page." I loose the data/text in the middle of the page that I need to change.
Thank you in advance for your help!!

You are not alone. I too cannot edit my home page. All other pages edit fine. Here is the home page. http://www.audiofilesolutions.com.
Here is how a subpage looks in CS4 & CS5 when editing.
And here is how the corrupted home page looks.
As you can see, all the text and content goes away except for the dropdown menus and links at the top and bottom. As I mentioned, this occurs in both CS4 and CS5 trial versions of Contribute. When trying File/Edit in external application which is notepad on my system, sometimes the text is formatted and coherant (like when you open View Source in IE8) and other times notepad opens up as all text, no spaces, or formatting of any kind--looks like a garbled mess.
Any help is appreciated.

Switching Content Area Portlet Edit/View Mode

I am trying this question again since I did not get responses to my first try.
The current Content Area Portlet included with Portal 3.0.8 works fine except that it does not include the "Main Banner" nor the "Sub Banner". This means that portlet users do not have access to either the "Edit/View folder" function nor the current folder name.
My customer would like some users to have item upload capability. What are my choices without these banners? I can access the content area in "full page" mode and have the banners available. But this is undesirable since we would like the content area to stay "in the portlet" in order to maintain portal context.
I might be able to switch the edit/view function from another portlet on the same page if I pass the p_edit and p_mode parameters to redraw the multiple portlet page correctly. I have tried passing p_edit using the portlet reference path "&162_KCPCONTENTAREA_6429252.p_edit=1", but the Content Area Portlet does not respond. What else do I need to do? Is this even possible?
Thanks for any advise you can provide

I have determined that there will be be an edit link included in the Content Area Portlet in the 3.0.9 release due out in May. This leaves open the question of support for parameter passing for out-of-the-box portlets. Will (Is) this supported?

How can i make the navigation easier in my content area? (TREE VIEW)

Now I use 1 navbar for my whole content area.
This is what I want :
I would like to navigatie in my content area lik I navigate in the explorer of microsoft.
Is there a script,
portlet, or something like that.
when I delete a folder it must automaticle disapear from the tree view.
When I add it must be displayed.
When the folder isn't public it, the public can't see it
thxc in advance
Bert Leeman

If you are using the same nav bar you could build a custom nav bar in the shared objects and publish it as a portlet. In the properties of a folder you can assign an image for the nav bar. This could make it look like a tree assuming you build the images that way. Also your folder links should disappear from the nav bar when they are deleted. I think.

Open content area in edit mode

Hello,
Is it possible to open content area and all folders in edit
mode. By default content area and folders are open in view mode.
Thanks

You can use URL items to display links to folders instead of
using Folder or subfolder links. Set the URL in the URL item to
the URL for the folder Edit mode.

Content Area: Cannot edit/drill down to folders at the lowest level

URGENT: Need your help.
I am using Oracle Portal 3.0.6 (Production) installed on Win NT 4.0 Server with Oracle 8.1.7. I am working on hosting a website for my development group.
I created a Content Area and associated it with a page style. Then I created numerous folders to meet the requirements of the various product teams working in my team. Under each folders, I created various sub-folders. Now I want to add items under each folder I created. Earlier, using the link "Edit Folder", I could do by clicking on the folder under which I wanted to create an item. Now when I click on the folder, it returns back the same page showing all the folders along with the icons meant for "Edit", "Add", "Delete", "Move" and "Copy". Nothing is happening and I am stuck here. It displays all the sub-folders with links upto 2-level, since I set the navigator property to the level 2. But I cannot navigate to the sub-folder created at the third level by clicking on the sub-folder link above it (at the 2-level) and add any items under the clicked folder.
Only mistake I could think about was by mistake, I tried to delete a content area which was created for test purpose. There were folders created under this. But I attempted to delete the content area directly without deleting the folders underneath. I got an error saying ".... child records exist". Later while clicking on the tab "content area", I was getting the following error:
An unexpected error ORA-06503: PL/SQL: Function returned without value occurred when executing action of the SITE datasource. (WWC-38130)
(WWS-00000)
Error:No data found (WWS-32101)
ORA-1403: ORA-01403: no data found
ORA-01403: no data found (WWC-36000)
normal, successful completion (WWS-00000)
All product teams already submitted the contents they want me to put on the folders but I am unable to resolve the above problem. Any help / pointer to the above issue will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Content Area Problem

Hello,
Is it possible to have 2 pages with each containing a content area (one for viewing purpose (say page A), another page to insert or edit item type (page B)) that everytime a user inserts or edit an item type page B, page A automatically refreshes itself and display the new/updated item type?

This is similar to the question in Refrencing an item of one page from another page..
No automatic refresh, though.

Displaying a Content Area using custom code

Hello list,
Is it possible to display the contents of
a content area as a custom portlet so that I
don't have to expose the content area as a
portlet and I can add custom formatting etc ?
Any tips ?

A number of SQL views are provided for retrieving information
from content areas. These views are documented in the PDK. For
folders, use the view WWSBR_ALL_FOLDERS.

Security issue with content areas

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this. If you have, is there a work around? It seems like some of content area security is cached in the database. This is what happened in my two test cases.
Test case 1:
- First I created several content areas with subfolders by using the wwwsbr_api.
- I granted access to just to the content area, and not the subfolders. I did this because when I looked at the content areas created above, the Add Privileges To All Sub-folders was marked.
- Then when I login as the test user I was able to see the content area, but none of the subfolders. That didn?t surprise me because I was guessing that the radio button to add privileges to the subfolder was only used when the user pressed the Cascade Privileges button.
- I granted access to the all subfolders on the content areas the test user should be able to access.
- Then I login again with the test you. I move into the content area that I viewed the first time, and I still can?t see the subfolders. But I could see all the subfolders of the other content areas the test user had access to.
- I logged in to make sure the group was added to access the subfolders of the content area. The group did have access to the content area and all the subfolders, but the user still could not see the subfolders.
- The only way the test user was finally able to see the subfolders was for me to go to the content area and pressed the Cascade Privileges with Add Privileges To All Sub-folders marked.
So it seems like for some reason Oracle is storing the security, and not updating it when it is updated via API for content areas.
Test case 2:
- First I created several content areas with subfolders by using the wwwsbr_api.
- I granted access to just to the content area, and not the subfolders.
- Then when I login as the test user I was able to see the content area, but none of the subfolders.
- I alter the test user and give him the privilege to view all content areas.
- I login again as the test user, and I go to the content area I looked at the first time I logged in, but still couldn?t see any of the subfolders in it. I went to two other content areas, and was able to see all the subfolders.
- I alter the test user again removing the privilege to view all content areas.
- I login again as the test user and look at the second and third content area again. I still could see all the subfolders even though the user does not have access to them.
I have tried clearing cache, history, deleting all temporary files and restarting my computer to make sure that it was not caching issue in the browser.
Thanks,
Tom

The "File Edit View Window Help" menu disappears after opening Adobe Acrobat X Standard

After installing Adobe Acrobat X Standard, when I run the program the "File Edit View Window Help" menu is visible for only a brief second then disappears. I tried to press F11 or other functions keys to bring it back. I also installed Adobe Acrobat X Pro which I also have a license for and it would do the exact same thing. Reinstalling the programs did not seem to resolve the problem. Is there an issue inside the registry?

Thank you for your comment. However, F9 does not seem to work.
When I press F9, the menu bar appears but the words "File Edit View Window Help" are still missing.
When I press F9 again the menu bar will close.
This is a screen capture before the words "File Edit View Window Help" disappear. After only about a second they are gone.

Content Area - Disappearing Entries

Having a few wierd things happening while populating a Content Area with Documents.
1. Even though every file belongs to the same Category "General" when the files are displayed they are grouped (seemingly arbitrarily) in separate sections with the same General category title. I'm not sure how better to explain this. For instance:
(Folder Name)
HR Documents
General (Category)
Employee Salary Action Form
Progressive Disipline Form
Employee Benefits Explanation
General (Category)
Arizona Stock Options Plan
Employee Review Form
2. The other problem I just ran into is that the files in this folder suddenly disappear. When I add a sub-folder to this folder it does not show up. After poking around the database I found that the files still exist in the database itself as BLOBS but they are not listed in my folder.
Are these content areas flakey or what?
Anyone else with the same experiences???
Thanks for any input.
Eric

For number 1, its likely that the items were entered in different regions. When adding an item you get to select which region it goes in. If you select different regions, then the category will show up for each region. You can tailor this behavior by editing the style.
For number 2, its possible that the sub-folders have not been selected for display. To check this, go to the folder properties of the parent folder and click on the optional tab. The second section shows available and displayed sub-folders.

!!!!!!! IMPORTANT !!!!!!!!!!!! Can't reach the tabs of edit content area

I have a big problem.
When I try to edit a content area, i come to the following tab : MAIN
But when I click on any other tab i get :
The page cannot be found
The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.
Please try the following:
If you typed the page address in the Address bar, make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Open the portal.irc.be home page, and then look for links to the information you want.
Click the Back button to try another link.
Click Search to look for information on the Internet.
HTTP 404 - File not found
Internet Explorer
Can anyone help me please.
THX in advance.
P.S I have several databases running on 1 machine.
I only get this message in one database.

Hi,
You must switch to the "master pages" tab first, then mark the content area to be able to move it.
You cannot move the content area in the design view, since it is part of the master page.
