Dynamic browser window title

Dear all
In my Forms10g deployment, I have a unique browser window title for each separate form (i.e. one value of pagetitle per form in formsweb.cfg).
If form A calls form B, and then control returns to form A, is it possible to dynamically alter the browser window title, perhaps by referring to the called form's entry in formsweb.cfg?
Many thanks in advance.

Check out webutil for this.

Need to Remove the tabs group Title from browser window title

When I use a saved tab group, which means I named that tab group in FF 5,''' the name of the tab group appears at the top of the browser along with the title of the web page I am viewing'''. Not good, I need to remove that tab group title from the browser window title, so I am only seeing the title of the webpage, and nothing from the tab group. How do I do that?
thanks

Changing the text "SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0" in the browser window title

Hi,
I want to change the standard browser window title from "SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0" to my clients company name.
Has anyone done this before?
Please help.
Thanks in advance
Padmamr

Hi,
To change the name of the browser:
System Administration > System Configuration > Service Configuration > Portal Runtime > Central Configuration.
Scroll down to: portal.html.head.title
and change to required name of your company.
Also, if you goto System Administration > System Configuration > UM Configuration > Direct Editing.
Here you will find a host of UME controls for logging on and logging off the Portal. You can change images etc... from here.
Remember to restart the Portal and components for changes to take affect.
Cheers

How to html edit/ enter browser-window-title

how to html edit/ enter browser-window-title?
harpo

I think this is what you mean any way hope it helps.
open the .html file in text edit for the page you want to change. then look for
<title>whatever your title is</title>
and just change the text whatever your title is for whatever you want. the line of code is located at the top of the page under the line that reads
<meta name="Generator" content="iWeb 1.1.2" />
not sure if this was the answer to your question but i hope its helped.

How to set browser window title from FPM ?

How do I set brwoser window title at runtime in FPM ?
Using IDR area objetc I can set only apllication are(ident area) title, not the browser window title. Browser window title is set statically from iView name of in portal, and PFCG contect if in NWBC client.
But in my case, I want to set it at runtime, for eg. in case of Purchase Order window, I want to set it as 'Purchase Order:<PO number>
Is there any API to set this?
Thanks again,
Hari
Edited by: Hari Krishnan P on Jun 9, 2010 10:22 AM

When you call it as external window you may pass the title. other than that i am afraid you are left with no choice.

How to set browser window title?

Hello..
Is there a way to change browser window title at runtime? I am using WD ABAP with FPM
Please suggest an API.
Thanks in Advance

Hi Hari,
For changing the application title you need to configure, which i assume u know and have configured.
now you can use the following code to change the title.
DATA lo_idr TYPE REF TO if_fpm_idr.
get idr instance*
lo_idr ?= cl_fpm_service_manager=>get_service( cl_fpm_service_manager=>gc_key_idr ).
IF lo_idr IS NOT INITIAL.
    lo_idr->set_application_title(
      EXPORTING
        iv_title = lv_heading
        iv_title_tooltip = lv_heading ).
ENDIF.
where lv_heading is the new heading.
for any other question on FPM post it in Floorplan Manager for WebDynpro Abap fourm
Hope this will help you.
Thanks & Regards,
Arvind

Configuring the browser window title for an iWeb-created page?

Hello all,
How do you customize the text that appears in the browser window's title for an iWeb-created page? (e.g., at the top of the browser window where it says "Apple - Support - Discussions - etc."). I had assumed that the the name I designated for the page via the Inspector would be used as the browser window title, but instead iWeb is using the first line of text within the page itself.
Thanks!

You can do it with a HTML snippet with the following code:
<script type='text/javascript'>
parent.document.title = "name you want to appear at the top of the window";
</script>
It takes about a second or two to replace the original text as can be seen in this test page.
Put the snippet box off somewhere where it won't overlap on any other element. It is invisible on the web page and in iWeb until you click on it. I had to do a Select All to find it just now to get the code.

Setting a dynamic urxvt window title

Hi,
I'm using urxvt windows for alot of apps and I don't like to have 6 windows in the taskbar that all say "urxvt [Number]").
That's why I would like to have either the name of the last app started in urxvt or at least a tail output of what's currently in there.
I understood that with
printf '\33]2;%s\007' "foo"
I can set the window title to foo but that was it.
Does anyone know if/how I can put something dynamic to the console title bar?
Doesn't have to be urxvt, but would be cool.
Thanks in advance.

Following skymt suggestion, I found this script which should make the preexec() and precmd() work in bash too, but I'm too newbie to figure out how the whole works
#!/bin/bash
# preexec.bash -- Bash support for ZSH-like 'preexec' and 'precmd' functions.
# The 'preexec' function is executed before each interactive command is
# executed, with the interactive command as its argument. The 'precmd'
# function is executed before each prompt is displayed.
# To use, in order:
# 1. source this file
# 2. define 'preexec' and/or 'precmd' functions (AFTER sourcing this file),
# 3. as near as possible to the end of your shell setup, run 'preexec_install'
# to kick everything off.
# Note: this module requires 2 bash features which you must not otherwise be
# using: the "DEBUG" trap, and the "PROMPT_COMMAND" variable. preexec_install
# will override these and if you override one or the other this _will_ break.
# This is known to support bash3, as well as *mostly* support bash2.05b. It
# has been tested with the default shells on MacOS X 10.4 "Tiger", Ubuntu 5.10
# "Breezy Badger", Ubuntu 6.06 "Dapper Drake", and Ubuntu 6.10 "Edgy Eft".
# This variable describes whether we are currently in "interactive mode";
# i.e. whether this shell has just executed a prompt and is waiting for user
# input. It documents whether the current command invoked by the trace hook is
# run interactively by the user; it's set immediately after the prompt hook,
# and unset as soon as the trace hook is run.
preexec_interactive_mode=""

# Default do-nothing implementation of precmd.

function preexec_invoke_cmd () {
precmd
preexec_interactive_mode="yes"
# This function is installed as the DEBUG trap. It is invoked before each

# out of interactive mode and not trace any of the commands run in
# precmd.
# Given their buggy interaction between BASH_COMMAND and debug traps,
# versions of bash prior to 3.1 can't detect this at all.

Change a browser window title

How do I add/change a browser window page title using iWeb?

iWeb uses the textbox in the Header layer of an iWeb page as the title in the browserwindow.
If the textbox in the Header is missing, iWeb uses a textbox down the page in the Content layer.
If that textbox is also missing, it uses another textbox.
If that fails it uses the pagename in the Sidebar.
To replace a missing textbox in the Header, choose another theme and then change it back to the original one.
Sometimes you may want a different text in the titlebar and not display it on the page itself. Or not display it at all.
So use that textbox in the Header layer.
Type your text.
Do Command-T to open the font palette and make the font smaller (Or do Command--(minus)).
Then select the textbox.
In the Inspector choose T, click a color to open the color palette and drag the opacity slider to 0 (zero).
Resize the textbox. You may want to change the height of the Header layer.
Do Command-Shift-B to move the textbox to the back, possibly behind other objects.
Next add a optional second textbox to the Header layer and use that one to display text on the page.
If you want to move the textbox to the front again to make changes, but can't remember the location on the page, drag the area with the mouse to select the objects.
Deselect objects you do not want to move forward by Command-dragging the mouse over these objects.
Next do Command-Shift-F to move the textbox to the front. Repeat the steps in reverse order to make the text visible.
And here's a movie that show how to partially hide the title :

How to read browser(window) title in jsp?

Hi,
I need to read/find window title in my jsp code. Is there any method/way using which I can find window title?
I can read it in javascript using window.document.title but as we know that we can not use javascript inside jsp, I am not able to use this method.
Any help will be appriciated.
Rohit

Is your decision based upon the title of the page you are generating or the title of the page you have just come from?
In either case, basing logic off of a window title sounds like a potential for trouble to me.
If you want to make a decision, then send a parameter for the web application to react to.
You can't get the window.title of the previous page.
You are generating the current page, so you should already KNOW what the title of that page is right? You just printed it!
Potential alternatives which are roughly equivalent:
request.getHeader("referer") gets the url of the page that sent you to this one
request.getRequestURI gets the jsp being currently executed.
request.getAttribute("javax.servlet.forward.request_uri") will get you the original uri that was requested (assuming the page has been forwarded)

Set browser window title in template page

Hi,
How I can set the window title in template page ?
I know how to do it in regular page:
<af:document id="d1" title="Dashboard">
But in template I don't have a document tag.
so I added this before the <af:form> :
<html>
<head>
<title> My title </title>
</head>
</html>
But the problem is that I want to insert in the title something like that:
title="#{generalPage.serverName}"
Any ideas how can i do it ?
Thanks

You don't set the title in the template, you set the title in the page that is based on the template.
There you will have the af:document tag.

Change browser window title when separateFrame=false

We are running Web forms with separateFrame=false and want to change the window title.
Have tried using a javabean as provided by Frank Nimphius but that manipulates the top window frame only (i.e. the one that does not exist because we have only one frame). The built-in SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY ((FORMS_MDI_WINDOW, TITLE, 'my title') does not work
Using Webutil has been rejected by the client because of security/admin issues.
Anyone know of a solution?
Cheers,
Gary

Hi,
based on the following Javascript that works to set the title
<html>
<body onLoad="document.title='Hello'">
</body>
</html>
you can create a web.show_document() call like
web.show_document('javascript:document.title="hello"','_self');
If this doesn't work the first time, add a method to the base html file in Forms and call this method the same way

Web delivery inconsistencies /Closing browser windows

I have a huge piece being web-delivered. Sometimes everything
works perfectly, but occasionally we get a "Error reading segment
file" or "file is damaged or not an Authorware file" message. Is
there a solution for this problem?
Also, is there a function or a way to close a browser window
when you are ready to quit a web-based Authorware piece. If so,
does it work if your piece is playing "onTop" rather than "in
place"?
Thanks!

We have solved this by having the Authorware file call
another HTML file that has a javascript:window.close() in it in the
onLoad behavior (works for PC and Macintosh)
We also have our Authorware pieces onTop and it works great!
I have included the entire HTML code we are using. Just know,
that if this is the only Browser window open, that It will come up
with a window box something like ("..This windows is trying to
close. Close the window YES/NO?")
Hope this helps.

The window title attribute for the page layout region has not been set

Hi, I am a newbie to OA Framework extensions. Could you please advise me how to get rid of below error ?
"The window title attribute for the page layout region has not been set. This attribute value will be used for the browser window title and should be set according to the UI standards. A default window title will be displayed for all such pages that violate the standards. Action: Set the window title or title attribute for the page layout region. The title attribute is used as a secondary source for the window title if the window title is missing."
My requirement is to extend a VO and almost done with that but when i run the PG ( HomePG.xml ) file to ensure everything is fine , The target page is being displayed with above error. Just to let you know that i have already set the Titile and Window Title attributes for the HomePG.xml region i.e PageLayoutRN.
One more thing i would like to share is that i was set the Window Title to 'Oracle Applications Home Page' , but target page name is being displayed as 'Oracle Applications'.
Any suggestions ??
Thanks.

How to set window title using cfdocument format="FlashPaper" ?

Does anyone know how to set the the browser window title when using:
<cfdocument format="FlashPaper">
#docContent#
</cfdocument>
The variable docContent is a fully formed html document, complete with <head> and <title> elements, yet <cfdocument> doesn't pick up the title I've specified. I'm wondering if anyone has done this before???
Thanks!

Yes, I tried that, but <cfdocument> replaces any content that I add. I cannot view the source for the page, but at least according to FireBug, when I view the page contents, I get:
<html>
<head>
<title>print.cfm - print.cfm (application/x-shockwave-flash Object)</title>
</head>
