Help with dynamic page layouts

Hello JSP Gurus,
I'm attempting to dynamically generate the page layout for my site based on the organization a user belongs to. Basically, I'd have certain resources like navigation links, graphics, etc, that are modular. Then I'd like to construct the layout using these "moduls" in a dynamic fashion. Does anyone have any suggestions on techniques or technologies that would be useful? I'm not really looking at the portal/portlet model. Is this something that Cocoon could do by storing the layout for each customer as an XML file or something? Any ideas, suggestions, experiences would be helpful.
Thanks!

How does Tiles differ from the JetSpeed apache
project? They both appear to be portal-like
frameworks, or am I incorrect about that? Which is
preferred?Frankly, I can't give you an in-depth answer to that. Maybe someone else can help with more details.
What I can tell you is that JetSpeed seems to be more of a real portal architecture. Emphasis is placed on the framework portion, interfacing with exisiting applications. Visual layout takes second seat to this.
Tiles on the other hand puts more emphasis on visual layout and reuse.
Just looking at JetSpeed's visual interfacing a little bit makes me really dislike it. You build tables and such inside of a servlet, so there's a tight coupling (or at least, much tighter than with Struts/Tiles) between the presentation and logic. (I'm basing this on a JavaWorld article at
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-07-2001/jw-0727-jetspeed.html )
Based on your initial question, it would seem to me that tiles is much closer to what you're looking for (and likely easier to just pick up and use).
Anyway, take all this with a grain of salt; I'm not exactly an expert on JetSpeed. =)

Help with CSS Page Layout

I guess I am "old school" in that I have always used tables
to lay out my web pages. I decided I must learn to do it with CSS,
but I'm having a terrible time (and it shouldn't be so hard!). I
understand how to define the styles, add divs, etc. Here's what I'm
having trouble with:
How do I specify the normal page width to be 800 pixels,
however I want it to be relative to the browser (i.e., 100% of 800
pixels).
I understand the "float" tag, but if I have a right-hand
sidebar, I can't seem to get the text to the left (in a div called
"maincontent") to stop at the sidebar and wrap to the next line. I
tried specifying "Hidden" as my textbook suggests, but that has no
effect.
I can easily do all of this with tables, so do I really need
to abandon them?
Thanks!

Hi Jane,
I'll try to answer all your questions, then a tip or two to
stop the main
content from dropping when the browser window size is
reduced.
- " I didn't realize that
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: auto;
is not the same as margin: 0px auto;
That's right.
margin: 0px auto; is actaully saying make the top margin 0,
the right margin
auto, the bottom margin 0 and the left margin auto.
It's just CSS shorthand.
For example, you might have:
margin-top: 10px;
margin-right: 20px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
margin-left:15px;
You could just use margin: {10px 20px 5px 15px;}
Think of a clock to remember the directions.
12:00 top, 3:00 right, 6:00 bottom, 9:00 left.
If any of the values are the same, you can shorten it more.
For example, if top is 10, right is 20, bottom is 5 and left
is 20, it's
margin: {10px 20px 5px;}
If the 4th location (left) is missing a value, it makes it
the same as what
you have for right.
If top and bottom are 10px, and left and right are 20px,
it's:
margin {10px 20px;}
If the last two positions ( bottom and left vlaues ) are
missing, then it
will use the top value for the bottom, and the right value
for the left.
What auto right and left is doing is subtracting your content
width (the
container width) from the browser window width, and then
dividing the
remainder in 2 and applying each value to each side of the
container.
-"I found that they all took on the font of the maincontent
and I had to fix
them
individually. "
The only text that should be Time is the text in your main
content, where
you have that font defined. Everything else should be Arial
if you define
the body as such. I'll post a link at the end of this.
- "I put my bold sentence (Friendship, Fun, etc.) in h1, but
I had to change
the
color & size, so that added another style element. "
You don't need to give the h1 a class. You can actually just
style the h1
tag:
h1 {
margin: 10px 10px 2px;
font-size: larger;
color: #941238;
You can only use h1 once on a page.
You can use h2, h3, h4, etc, as many times as you would like,
and you can
style these just like the h1 style above.
- "I don't quite understand the .rightsidebar p { and
container p{
I am assigning the spacing to the <p> tag? What exactly
is that doing?"
That is saying, give all the <p> tags inside the
rightsidebar container the
follwing style.
So, in this example:
.rightsidebar p {
font-size: 18px;
margin: 2px 10px;
it's saying give all the <p> tags in this container a
size of 18 and margin
of 2px top and bottom, and 10px left and right.
It's a lot easier than giving a class to every <p> tag
- "I also don't quite understand the .clear {
Why not just choose clear:both on the next section <div
class="footer">"
You could, if the footer was in the container. It just needs
to be the final
element before the close of a container that contains the
float(s).
-Do you use the <div class="container"> technique all
the time?
Yes, most of the time. I usually put everything in it, and
use the
margin:0px auto; to center it.
That way, I don't have to try to get a number of different
elements to align
with the right and left sides by applying values to all of
them, which can
get tricky quickly.
-"If you'll indulge me one more question, I wonder if it's
possible to put a
graphic (say, of a putting green) underneath my
rightsidebar? I would want
the sidebar to lay on top of the putting green for an
interesting artistic
touch.
Yes, you can give that div a background image. You just need
to make the div
the same size as the image so you see it all (or vice-versa).
Now, to make that maincontent not drop like it does you can
remove the width
in the CSS. Now it will expand over to the left edge of the
rightsidebar.
You can control how close it gets by giving the right sidebar
a bigger left
margin. The point is, with no width assigned, the maincontent
will shrink
down to the longest word in it before it drops.
Here's what it looks like:
http://tnsgraphics.com/test2.htm
Let me know if you have any questions.
Take care,
Tim

Dynamic Page Layout - Opportunity Product Revenue

Hi gurus,
I am trying to setup a dynamic template for "Opportunity Product Revenues"
I set it up successfully in the object. However, this data is exposed only as a related list of Opportunity and not directly. Now, when I go into the "Opportunity" customization, it only allows me to set up static page layouts, with no option to setup the Dynamic page layouts through the Related list.
Please help..

Hi Jonathan,
Many thanks for your response.

Cannot find procedures with dynamic pages

Hi all,
I have a problem with dynamic pages. cannot find procedures.
This is the content of a a dynamic page (example):
<HTML>
<ORACLE>
begin
htp.print(htf.bold(‘Fill in field values and use the push button to buy ticket’));
htp.br;
htp.formOpen(‘NETU.BUY_TICKETS’);

htp.formText(‘p_cc_type’,5,5);
htp.br;
htp.teletype(‘Card #_______:’);
htp.formText(‘p_cc_number’,10,10);
htp.br;
htp.formSubmit(NULL,’Buy Ticket’);
htp.formClose;
end;
</ORACLE>
<HTML>
and try to call to this procedure ‘NETU.BUY_TICKETS’ for save form data in BD:
begin
insert into tickets (id, eventid, no_of_tickets,cc_type,cc_number, trans_date) values (p_id, p_eventid, p_no_of_tickets, p_cc_type, p_cc_number, sysdate);
exception when others then htp.print(‘SQL Error Message:’||substr(SQLERRM,1, 200));
end;
All compiled fine.
The problem exact is when i submit the form, cannot find procedure.
In browser address show this -> http://portal:7778/pls/portal/NETU.BUY_TICKETS
and in the body...

mmm ... what's wrong? where is the log? i find a lot...

I have tried your code and it works for me . Here are the steps and codes I have used to stimulate your process
1. Created the procedure
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE p_buy_tickets (p_id in number, p_eventid in number, p_no_of_tickets in number, p_cc_type in varchar2, p_cc_number in number) IS
BEGIN
htp.print('Processed Successfully');
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
htp.print('SQL Error Message:'||substr(SQLERRM,1, 200));
END p_buy_tickets;
2. Granted 'Execute' privilge on this procedure to Public.
3. Created a dynamic page with the following code (same as yours except the schema):
<HTML>
<ORACLE>begin
htp.print(htf.bold('Fill in field values and use the push button to buy ticket'));
htp.br;
htp.formOpen('MY_SCHEMA.P_BUY_TICKETS');
htp.teletype('Student Id___:');
htp.formText('p_id',5,5);
htp.br;
htp.teletype('Event Id_____:');
htp.formText('p_eventid',5,5);
htp.br;
htp.teletype('# of Tickets_:');
htp.formText('p_no_of_tickets',5,5);
htp.br;
htp.teletype('Credit Card');
htp.br;
htp.teletype('AMEX,MC,VISA_:');
htp.formText('p_cc_type',5,5);
htp.br;
htp.teletype('Card #_______:');
htp.formText('p_cc_number',10,10);
htp.br;
htp.formSubmit(NULL,'Buy Ticket');
htp.formClose;
end;
</ORACLE>
<HTML>
4. I got the message 'Processed Successfully' when I ran the dynamic page and submitted the form.
You may need to check how you declared parameters in the procedure and how you supplied values when you run the procedure. In this case, I created the procedure with "No Default" value for all parameters , so I have to supply value for all parameters in the form otherwise I will encounter the 'Page Not Found' error.
Hope this helps!.
Thanks

Help with creating a layout.

I need help creating a layout for my program, but am having tons of problems. I just an't that good at creating this, and it's been driving me insane.
Here's the link to how I want it to look like. http://s94182144.onlinehome.us/randomstuff/layout.JPG
In panel 1... that will be a cartesian plain, so it will pretty much be empty until lines and stuff are drawn in there.
In panel 2, there will be two drop down menus and a couple of buttons
In panel 3, there will be a bunch of things, with two buttons on the bottom.... and this section has to be scrollable.
Any help with the basic layout will be helpful... I can put in the buttons myself. For reference, the whole programs size is 400x800.
Thanks,
sachit

Read this section from the Swing tutorial on [url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/layout/visual.html]How to Use Layout Managers. You can combine multiple Layout Managers to get the effect your want. By default the content pane uses the BorderLayout, so one approach might be:
JPanel center = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
center.add(panel1, BorderLayout.CENTER);
center.add(panel2, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
getContentPane().add(center, BorderLayout.CENTER);
getContentPane().add(panel3, BorderLayout.EAST);
It turn you would layout panel1, panel2 and panel3 with the appropriate layout manager. Panel2 could be something like:
JPanel panel2 = new JPanel( new BorderLayout() );
panel2.add(comboBox1, BorderLayout.WEST);
panel2.add(comboBox2, BorderLayout.EAST);
JPanel bottom = new JPanel();
bottom.add(button1);
buttom.add(button2);
panel.add(bottom, BorderLayout.SOUTH);

I'm not sure I've got a grasp on the issue you are having but let me give it a try
Website A is finished and you have uploaded it to the Internet, so it is LIVE.
You make a copy of Website A, and call it Website B, then make all required changes.
IF you uploaded Website B, then it is likely you will overwrite Website A. You must instead, upload Website B as a separate Website.
To publish to a new site:
Click Publish.
Then click the expansion triangle left of Options.
Change Publish To setting to New Site
fill out rest of required details, and click OK to publish.
You'll now have two separate web-sites.
If you need to link between them, use absolute hyperlinks (the full URL).

Re: A region with dynamic page def mapping

Dear Friends,
We are using Jdeveloper version 11.1.2.3.0.
Our requirement is there will be one region(.jsff) , it have a af:table and some input text component, based on some condition it has to be binded withViewObjetct1 or ViewObject2
(both the ViewObject will have the same column name).
Is it possible can we use a region(.jff) with different page definition file.Based on some condition region is mapped with Pagedef1(having corresponding Viewobject1 iterator and tree binding)
and in another condition it's mapped with Pagedef2(having corresponding Viewobject2 iterator and tree binding).
Please suggest a way to implement this scenario.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Vijay

Found some helpful blog for this scenario.
http://andrejusb.blogspot.in/2012/03/proxy-viewobject-and-dynamic-editable.html.
But i don't think it will work for us, because we may add few columns in ViewObject2 and no dynamic components.
Please give us your valuable opinion.
Thanks,
Vijay

Need help with Fluid Grid Layout and variable column balance.

I'm using the fluid grid layout. I have multiple columns that are actually fluid grid layout columns done by Dreamweaver. I'd like them to extend as high as each other (all to the maximum height of each other) within the same section. An added catch is that in the desktop layout, I have three side by side under one that takes the whole width of the page. On tablet size, it's 2x2 in a square grid. On mobile, they're vertically stacked. I'm trying to get it so that background colour and/or borders looks decent and is fully balanced, no matter which layout is hit with the fluid layout. The columns reflow, no problem. But the height of any background and/or border is variable.
Any help on fixing this?
Example at: https://music2help.thoughtburst.net/
The example doesn't have borders or colours, as it looked silly unbalanced. The music2help.css is the only one I'm modifying manually.
Love the fluid grid layout, but I need a way to make it behave decently with backgrounds/borders. Any help would be hugely appreciated!
Thanks!

I tried the solution Nancy posted. It altered things, but doesn't seem to do the trick.
Just some quick background. I did HTML from 1994 through about five years ago by hand in vi on *nix systems. I learned HTML through 4.01, and never bothered with XHTML at all. I learned CSS through most of CSS2. The CSS3 and HTML5 stuff is all new to me, but it can't be that hard. I'm not exactly a novice in JS (I've done a fair bit of AJAX programming), but it's not even close to my primary language (I'm a Perl guy).
I'm "stuck on" wanting to use Fluid Grid Layouts. It's billed as one of the selling points of DW CS6, and I really like the concept and results. I just want the results embellished a little, namely with sensible identical heights on grid containers set in the same row, so that you can apply background colours, dropshadows, and borders. That's really all I want to do that it doesn't already do.
I have a test page at: http://music2help.thoughtburst.net/ that you can try with your Quick Columns. I'd be interested to know if you can get it to work.
Here's the catch, though... Resize the browser, shrinking it inwards. (I suggest Firefox, as Chrome only shrinks so far, and you won't get to Mobile width.) As you can see, on a Tablet, one of the columns that should be equal height actually moves up a row and should be equal height with the row that, on a desktop, would take the entire width of the page area. So that's like a 4-up output in printing terms. At Mobile size, the entire thing is vertical, so none of the columns should be resized.
If your product works and can accomodate these conditions, I think I would be interested in spending the $35 it costs.
Let me know? Thanks!
EDIT: Changed URL to be non-SSL. The server has multiple vhosts on it, and I keep forgetting that I don't have a cert on this new one. Sorry about that. You can just add anything to one of the the three middle columns, if you're pulling it down to test.

PLEASE Help with Newsletter Page Setup

Hello all,
I am working on trying to re-create a newsletter using InDesign for a client who had previously done all "design" in Microsoft Word.
It's admittedly been awhile since I've done much page layout or work with imposition, and my brain is completely cramping when trying to figure out the correct way to set things up first of all, and then to send the finished file to the print vendor for output.
Here's what I know...
The newsletter is to be printed two-up (according to printer) on 17"x22" sheets of paper, with printing on both sides.
When folded, and with all contained pages stapled together along the fold, each page of the finished newsletter is to be a full 8.5"x11" in size.
Currently, I am working within a Document Setup of "Facing Pages" at 8.5"x11" in size, but have a feeling that either this is: a.) not correct, or b.) not the most efficient way to get what I'm looking for; possibly it's both!
I would be EXTREMELY grateful for any insight, help, and guidance you're willing and able to provide me with.
Many thanks, in advance!

Sorry, Bob.
I'm trying my best to be clear, but simaltaneously include as much information as possible. Perhaps my wording is what's fogging things up. I'll try to re-hash:
The FINISHED SIZE of the newsletter is 8.5"x11". To you, the reader, this 8.5"x11" would be the size of each page.
The PAPER SIZE of the newsletter is 17"x22". The printer will be printing two-sided (front and back) and two-up on each 17"x22" sheet of paper.
Once printed, each 17"x22" sheet will be folded in half to essentially created 4 readable newsletter pages at a size of 8.5"x11". The folded sheets are fit inside of each other in the correct order and stapled along the fold into sort of a booklet.
Hopefully this helps.
Again, I am essentially looking for help regarding two separate questions:
What Document Setup will I want to work in as the designer?
What steps do I need to take once my layout is finished to get the printer a two-up imposition in PDF format that will achieve all of the above? This is what he has asked for.
Thanks again!

Create custom web-part page with OOTB page layout using CSOM (Javascript)

Hi,
I need to create a custom webpart page with a OOTB page layout (eg. Header 3 column footer) using JSOM.
I found a link to do this using CSOM: http://spdevlab.com/2013/03/28/creating-wiki-web-part-and-publishing-pages-via-csom-in-sharepoint-2010/
But here i have to copy the page template from 15 hive and store it in a resource file and I am also getting error as "The request message is too big" and to fix this I need to run a powershell script but I need the code to run in SharePoint online
also.
Isn't there a simpler piece of code in which I can enter the name of the page layout(OOTB/Custom) while creating a page in JSOM as we have in SSOM?
Thanks for the help
sunny

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to create a custom web part page layout template.
There are some articles about how to create the custom web part page layout template, you can refer to them.

Create Data Flow Task set to DelayValidation: True
Create OLE DB Sourc
Create Data Converstion
Excel Destination
Excel Connection, Expression, select ExcelFilePath
@[User::sXLFilePath] + @[User::sFileName] + RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR, 2) DATEPART("DD", GETDATE()), 2)+ RIGHT("0" + (DT_WSTR, 2) DATEPART("MM", GETDATE()), 2) + RIGHT((DT_WSTR,

What I try to accomplish is output the file with each day append to it, date must be DDMMYY.
I google it and found many samples, tested it, and none of them is work for me.
Any suggestions or some examples to share is greatly appreciate.
I am new to SSIS. I found one poster have similar issue and inside the posted below, there was one suggestion to create variable and connection string but how do I bind that variable to Excel Connection manger.
Please help.
Thank you so much in advance.

Suggestion in the above posted but where can bind this to Excel Connection Manger.
Please help provide step by step. Thanks.
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\\temp\\" + "ExcelTarget" + (DT_WSTR,4)DATEPART("yyyy",GETDATE()) +
".xls" + ";Extended Properties=\"EXCEL 8.0;HDR=YES\";"
And yes, as you were intimating, the delay validation on the dataflow should be set.

Hi NguyenBL,
According to your description, you created ssis package to export data from database to excel, when the package runs, you want to create new excel and name the file with time stamp. If that is the case, we can achieve the goal by following steps:
Create a script task used to create excel files.
Create a data flow task to export data from database to excel.
Add OLE DB source to data flow task.
Add Excel Destination to data flow task.
Create connection manager for OLE DB and Excel.
Click Excel Connection Manager, in Properties window, click (…) button next to Expressions, then set ExcelFilePath with expression like below:
"C:\\ETL Lab\\CreateNewExcel\\ExportData_"+REPLACE((DT_STR, 20, 1252)(DT_DBTIMESTAMP)@[System::StartTime], ":", "")+".xls"
For detail information, please refer to the document:

If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Custom Master Page with Custom Page Layout

Hi All,
I have created a Custom SharePoint Master Page. In that Master Page I have created a custom Header & Footer. In between the header and the footer I created a space to put page's content.
However I have created a page using that master page and it was successfully published.
After that I wanted to create a Custom Page Layout using that Page previously created. That also was a successful one. But when default Page Layouts in SharePoint 2013 inserted to a page it shows an area that can add content. But in my Page Layout inserted
to a page it does not show like that.
So what have I missed when I created the Custom Page Layout? Could you kindly someone tell me how to solve this matter?
Thanks and regards,
Chiranthaka

Can you confirm that your custom page layout has the same WebPart Zones as the default one? They need to be if you wish to see content that was added with the default page layout.
