Displaying external page as portlet

How do I display an external page like 'http://www.wsj.com" as a opened page in a portlet as opposed to a link?

You have 3 choices for doing this:
1) You can use the dump URL portlet that comes with the PDK.
2) If you want to show only part of a page (ie. get rid of advertisements and misc. other junk) you could build a PL/SQL portlet using UTL_HTTP to call the page, parse out the good stuff and display it as a portlet.
3) If you are know your user population and know that they are using IE or newer versions of Netscape, you can make an HTML portlet, and add the URL as part of an Iframe, for example:
<IFRAME src="http://www.yahoo.com" height=500 width=500></IFRAME>

  • Display HTML page in portlet

    I want to let my users place a file in a certian content area and then have a portlet display that content. Any ideas? Where can I start?

    you can reference the file by using the folder name followed by the file name. You can point to the url either by adding an html portlet to your page and plugging in a anchor pointing to it or add a url item to a folder with the url of the file. Then render this folder as a portlet and plug it into your page. There are several other methods also depending on the exact results you are looking for.
    Hope this helps

  • Display different portal page or portlet depend on user's

    can I display different portal page or portlet depend on user's
    profile,such as: if user's gender is male, display a portal
    page named "malePortal",if the user's gender is female, display
    a portal page named "femalePortal"

    This can be accomplished by using Entitlements Segments.
    You can define them in EBCC. you will have to define a user profile which
    will contain user information (like gender).
    Once you have two segments defined, you can use portal administration site
    to configure entitlements for pages and portlets.

    a custom IP class. If you just want to show different content based on auser profile
    value, take a look at "Content Selectors" in EBCC; this sounds like aneasier way
    to get where you're trying to go.
    I don't think there's a way to display different portal pages/portalsbased on user's
    profile settings.

  • Possible to display external web page??

    Hi everyone,
    is it possible to display an external webpage by, for example, specifying the URL of the page? It would work a bit like frames.
    I have a table with a list of reports, each of which links to a "report". all data is obtained from a database.
    We need to be able to click a report and have it load it into some sort of panel or layout container based on the URL. I know how to do it using links in the table to open a new page. but i do not want the user to navigate away from the page or have a popup when selecting a link. i'd place the "report placeholder" in a layout panel with scroll css settings.
    I wouldn't mind working with frames either.
    could anyone suggest a nice mechanism to either load an external page in the same one being viewed or a solution using frames (is it even possible to use frames in JSC2 and JSF??)?
    i don't need anyone to give me a whole code, just the idea behind developing something like this.
    thank you all in this JSC2 community for all the help thus far.
    - P

    I did the following to display an external website:
    StaticText st = new StaticText();
    st.setText("<iframe id='urlFrame' frameborder='0' src='http://www.yahoo.fr' height='100%' width='100%'>test.....</iframe>");
    st.setEscape(false);
    However, I read that it is also possible by putting a markup component with tag attribute set to "iframe" but I did not have a chance to test it yet.

  • Improve portlet performance - display the page before the end of the procedure

    Some web pages display initial data and then continue to grow as
    more data arrives.
    I would love to do the same in a portlet procedure... A
    procedure containing a loop that generates HTML for each
    iteration.
    Is it possible to have the browser display the page after one
    iteration and then continue to grow after each subsequent one???
    Please say it's possible...
    Thanks,
    Chris.

    Fabrice,
    the Dynamic Page is a special form of portlet that is supported by Oracle9iAS Portal internally, which means that it is not recommended to tweak the generated PL/SQL package even though you have access to it. By doing this you won't be able to make any changes using Portal UI because every time you do the changes your code will be regenerated. Unfortunately, I don't see an easy way to extract the information you are looking for in the Dynamic Page portlet. My recommendation is to programmatically create a PL/SQL portlet that implements the same business logic as your Dynamic Page portlet. This way you will gain full control on your code and will have all advantages of PDK-PL/SQL.
    Hope this helps.

  • External Page Displayed In Page Fragment

    Hello,
    I am attempting to replicate the method in which frames work by using Page Fragments. I have a header at the top of the page and a "frame" along the left side of the page that allows for navigation. The rest of the web page is an area that updates based on the navigation selection that is made. I would now like to have one of the navigation buttons load a page fragment that contains an external page. Whenever I use getExternalContext().redirect(...) method inside of the Page Fragment, I am totally redirected to the external site and I lose my "frames" functionality. Thanks for the help.
    Scott

    Page Fragments are not like frames; a page fragment is -inlined- into the document by the server. Look at the source in the browser (View Source); the server sends a single html page to your browser.
    If you want frames-like functionality in the browser, you'll need to use frames. You might be able to use iframes too.

  • Displaying a page in a particular region

    Hi
    We have several tabs for different pages. One of our tabs is "Inofrmation and resources" within this page we have a region on the left handside with a list of departments within the company. I'd like to be able to open a new page within the right hand side region of this page depending on which department you click on.
    I've tried to create seperate pages but when these open we loose the tabs at the top. I dont want to be recreating the tabs on all the different pages we create.
    So my question is how can I display a page within a particular region depending on which link is clicked?

    Hi Neil,
    How about having two portlets inter-communicating with each other ... Did you have a look at the Site Indexing Portlet available on the Portal Integration Solutions site (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/point.html) ?

  • Page as portlet

    Hi.
    I've made a page with 3 tabs and made the page a portlet. Upon displaying the portlet on the main page it won't display the content of the portlet's tab until I click one of the other 2 tabs of the portlet, and then click the first tab.
    Has anyone experienced the same problem, and is there a solution to the problem

    Hi Joern,
    this is a bug (1721383). There is no real solution, will be fixed in 3.0.9. We tried to automatically navigate (with javascript and cookies) to the second tab and back to the first when showing the page (so basically doing what you have to do now manually), but we did not succeed.

  • Design View not displaying external files...HELP!

    This is my second attempt asking for anybody's help. I'm using Dreamweaver 8.0.2 (OS X 10.4.11) and when I open "any" of my local files In "Design View" NO external files loads. Here's what I've done so far to no avail:
    Delete "site cache"
    Delete all pref files
    Made sure "Display External Files" is check
    Made sure "Style Rendering --> Display Files" is check (using screen media type)
    Check that my firewall is disabled
    Renamed local root DIR of site file
    Searched the web, forums, etc...none of the answers worked
    Reinstalled DW 8.....TWICE!
    2 weeks ago I did updates to my website and everything was just fine. And now, nothing is working. All I can see is text and all of DIV blocks...but all external CSS and INC files fails to load. Been trying to fix this for 2 days now. Can anyone "please" give me some ideas to fix this problem.

    Hi - without seeing the actual page code, I'll take a stab that possibly you've lost the link to your stylesheets...?
    If you view the code, somewhere inside the "head" tags (generally right under the "Title", you should have a reference to any of your external stylesheets/images, etc.) Something like this:
    <link href="name_of_stylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    If no images are showing up as well, my guess is that you've moved the page (or the images and stylesheet) into a different folder/or subfolder without updating the links.  Any time you move a file, it should be done within dreamweaver (and it will always ask if you want to update links). If you move a file without using DW, it will definitely break all links, and no amount of re-installing, re-caching, etc. will fix it (sorry)...
    If this is the case, the best way to rectify would be to move the file back to where you had it... if this isn't the reason for the broken links, you'll need to manually re-update all of the links because something else has broken the linkage... (sorry again...)
    Hope that helps,
    Jesse

  • Page Navigation portlet - 3.0.9

    I want to create a page navigation portlet in 3.0.9, similar to that in 9.0.2.
    How can this be done? I want the portlet to navigate between pages and sub pages and I do not want to use the nasty default navigation link that appears on sub-pages in 3.0.9.
    I've looked at the wwpob_page$ table directly. This contains the hierarchy. WWSEC_SYS_PRIV$ contain the privilege info.
    However, I need to be able to define the current page so that the SQL can identify what to display in the portlet.
    How can you do this?
    Cheers,
    John

    Hi,
    You can get the page url in the additional plsql code section. You can just try printing htp.p(p_page_url) after publishing the component on a page.
    Thanks,

  • Sourcing/CLM 7 /IE 8: E-Sourcing cannot display this page.

    Good Afternoon,
    We are experiencing the following issue when logging out of Sourcing/CLM:
    1) Log out
    2) Try to log back in and recieve the following page:
    E-Sourcing cannot display this page.
    Click the browser back button to the previous page.
    I can get by this by closing the browser and opening up a new session.   I'm wondering if this is a common issue or possibly an IE or sourcing setting that's causing this.
    FYI- This is consistant behavior for system, enterprise and buyside/sellside user accounts.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Can I choose to display or not a Portlet using an if satement ?

    Can anybody help me with this situation:
    we want a portlet to be displayed only if the result of an "if statement" is false,
    else we do NOT want the portlet to appear on the page (the portlet is a Portal Form)
    We've put the if statement on an html portlet
    but we don4t know how to "call the form/portlet" if the if statment is false
    What we are trying to do is have this form displayed on a given page,
    when a user completes the form a cookie is written.
    When the user accesses this page again, if he has the cookie, the form should not be displayed, instead he should see a notice saying "you've already completed the form"
    Can this be done?
    thanks,
    Marcela

    You will need a sim to activate the iPhone before you can use it as an iPod.
    The sim does not need to be associated with an active account; if hte iPhone
    is locked to a wireless provider, the sim must be from that provider.
    You cannot use the iPhone without first activating it and you must use a sim to
