How to display topic content in non-RH window?

Morning all,
I'm working with my developers to find the best answer to this: How can we display topic content in a non-RH window.
Currently, I'm running RH 8.0.2 and generating WebHelp. We want to keep all content in RH, and for one part of our web service, we want to display topic content, but not a window generated by RH. In fact, we really just need the data to appear in something simple like a table cell. We don't want to hard code the content as it's likely to change.
I'm guessing since the folks on this forum have done everything w/ RH short of alchemy, someone out there has already done something like this.
So far, we're looking at opening the .htm file and pulling everything inside the body tags, then displaying that in whatever structure the developers decide is best. Kinda crude.
Questions that come up:
How do we match the content to the page it's displayed on since we're not using any of the RH structure around the content?
Is there a slick way to do this with the CSH API and MapIDs?
Since we're just using the content, the title tag is unused for these topics. Is there a way we could leverage this tag to help track the topic or the page it will display on?
As always, any enlightenment is welcome.
Patrick

Peter,
Thanks, but not really. I had read through that topic a while back.
It looks like we really need to display the content (probably everything between the body tags?) in an HTML element like a <td>. We could do frames, but for a small help window, they really eat up a lot of space and definitely don't fit in with the style of the site.
I think the display of the content will be left in the developer's hands - that's what they get paid for.
If you have any thoughts on how to reference the content, I'd love to hear them. I can't see MapIDs working as we're not using the CSH API. Though I suppose our developers could hack the .js file and determine how RH uses the MapIDs and recreate that. But that's a lot of work.
Referencing the topic by the name of the .htm file locks us into that file name and makes future changes a little more difficult.
The only thing I've come up with so far is to put a code in place of the <title> tag since the title won't be displayed. That way we could change the content w/out the developers having to recode. Crude, I know.
Regards,
Patrick

  • How to display the content of a region on a different page

    Hello,
    Does anyone knows how to display the content of a region on an other page. I try to make page that displays content that resides somewhere else in my portal, so I can give a summarization of some hot topics. I really want to display the whole content of some regions (not a display with custom search).
    Thanks a lot,
    Hans

    Set that page as portlet, include it in a region in another page and in the edit defaults decide which regions you want to display.

  • How to display the contents of the database values which are retrived.

    how to display the contents of the database values which are retrived in servlets and i am able to display the contents in the servlets and if forward to jsp using requestdespatcher,the values are to be shown in jsp one below the other.please suggest me in these........the servlet code is as shown
    while(rs.next()){
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(1));
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(2));
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(3));
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(4));
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(5));
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(6));
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(7));
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(8));
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(9));
                        buffer.append(rs.getString(10));
                        request.setAttribute("result1",buffer);
                        RequestDispatcher rq=request.getRequestDispatcher("/results.jsp");
                        rq.forward(request,response);
    in jsp iam using the getAttribute to retrieve the values as shown
    <% StringBuffer sb=(StringBuffer)request.getAttribute("result1"); %>
    <%= sb %>
    but getting the results in the stretch,i need to display the result one below the other.

    if you load it all into the buffer that is going to be very difficult. I would suggest loading it into some sort of collection. I like using an ArrayList.
    Then pass the arraylist.
    you will then on the jsp iterate through the arrayList using what every you want.. el, logic tags, scriplets.
    so something like
    ArrayList arrayList = new ArrayList();
    while(rs.next()){
    arrayList.append(rs.getString(1));
    //or possibly an arrayList of String arrays
    //maybe using nested for loops.  Inner for loop adds result to string[] then //outer adds string[] to arrayList.
    //can be done any number of ways based on your expected result set.

  • RH 7: In a CHM, how can I open an independent, non-modal window?

    Hi all,
    Using RH7.
    From within a CHM page, how can I open an independent, non-modal window?
    From within a topic I want to display a large picture by clicking an icon. The picture should appear in an independent, non-modal window that the reader can grab on its caption bar and so move the window  around. Thus, the reader can move the picture window to one side of the monitor, for example, and then use it as a reference, while continuing to read the topic on the other side of the monitor.
    Is this possible in RH7? If so, which RH feature would I use to do this?
    TIA

    Hi there
    I'm guessing you want to simply open a new browser window without any browser controls, right? In this case, you will need to use JavaScript to do it.
    Cheers... Rick

  • How to display more than one documents on windows 8 desktop?

    how to display more than one documents on windows 8 desktop?

    Adobe Reader Touch doesn't show more than one file on screen and doesn't show them on the desktop. Apparently these are very old fashioned things that Microsoft doesn't think we'll want to do any more and calls them "legacy" to make them sound antiquated.
    If you want to do these things use the legacy Adobe Reader, a much more powerful and flexible app (and not obsolete in the slightest). http://get.adobe.com/reader . There are no legacy apps in the Windows App Store.

  • How to display the contents of a document set on a page?

    I want to display the contents of a document set (that contains both folders and files) on a page (with the same structure as they are in the document set like folders and files). How to achieve this?
    I tried content search webpart but it is of no use as it displays the flat list instead I need folders and files as they are present in the document set
    I tried document set contents webpart but as it doesn't accept any connection, it is not of much use.
    I will be glad if you have any pointers for me in this regard.

    Hi Kesava,
    According to your description, you might want to display the content in a document set with its hierarchy.
    How about using
    Page Viewer Web Part to display the page of the corresponding document set? This would be a non-code solution I would recommend.

    Of course there is something in AWT:

    htmlagain, if you carefully read the question, he needs a
    table to display a JDBC result set. There is no
    pre-made table component in AWT.Well, I read that he filled the data into a java.util.List and now wants to display this list. So a List-component should be sufficient. But I might be wrong...

    Do you guys have any idea on this? Thank you very much for your replies

    For your listbox data to bind the listbox requires a Sequence. This is something that you can sort out at the entrypoint of your code.
    In the example below I have used an ArrayList to simmulate the data you have entering your FX code, but then I put that list into a Sequence, in your case instead of having an ArrayList in your FX code, you simple supply the list on entry, as I have marked in the following code.

    simpleList.add("Hello");

    // *** This is what your entry point would become, just load the simpleList.toArray() into your sequence ***
    var simpleSequence = [];
    simpleSequence = simpleList.toArray();
    //after some time add some items, to show that our binding is working
    Timeline {
        repeatCount: 1
        keyFrames: [
            KeyFrame {
                time: 5s
                canSkip: true
                action: function () {
                    //you can work on the Sequence to add or remove
                    insert "Another item" into simpleSequence;
                    //if you at some point want to have your array reflect the changes
                    //then perform your changes on that too
                    simpleList.add("Another item");
                    //remember depending on your app
                    //you may keep the update of simpleList
                    //until you are finished with this view and do it in a single update
            KeyFrame {
                time: 10s
                action: function () {
                    //Alternatly, to keep your ArrayList correct at all times
                    //add items to it and then update your Sequence
                    simpleList.add("Added to array");
                    simpleSequence = simpleList.toArray();
    }.play();

            height: 80
            content: [
                ListView {
                    items: bind simpleSequence
    }You can bind to a function rather than the data, which I am sure would be needed some cases, for example if the listBox data was a named part of a hash value for example, all that is required is that your function returns a sequence.

  • How to display the content of a file in the portal?

    Hey guys, could anyone help?
    I just created a page which includes two iView, one is KM Navigation iView to display a certain repository, while the other is for displaying the content of a certain file I click in the navigation iView.
    And now the problem is when I click a file in the KM Navigation iView, it will pop up a new window to display it. How can I make it displayed in a fixed iView, which type of this iView should be?

    Hi,
    you can try to use the:
    <b>ConsumerTreeListPreview</b>
    layout for KM navigation ivew (or customize to your own).
    This layout shows a folder tree on the left, a document list on the right. When you click on a document from the list it shows the contents of the file on the bottom of the iview.
    Hope this helps,
