Html pages in abap

i want to make my login screen with html and give hyper links to text on that page.
this will lead me to a transaction.how can i do that?

Hi Nisha,
  I would recommend you to first create a program in SAP in such a way that first you log into this screen which would allow you to create hyperlinks and all that fancy stuff..
  I have worked on a similar idea of dashboard and implemented this model..
->  First create a program with custom controls..(HTML, picture control etc)..
-> Make this tcode as default tcode (first tcode as soon as the user logs in).
-> use sample program 'SAPHTML_EVENTS_DEMO' for your requirement..
Let me know if could help you further..

  • Call a HTML page from ABAP dynamically

    Hi,
    My requirement : I need send information to a specific URL in a HTML format and get a response ( just the status)
    We are using an implicit enhancement to gather the details for this. Once the values are populated into form we need to send this form to a specific URL when the customer is getting saved on XD01/ XD02.
    The HTML will not be shown to the user hence I cannot download and then use the execute option using CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES. ( I have already tried this option and it working perfectly fine )
    Any suggestions of the best way of achieving this ?
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    narayani

    Hi,
         to get the data from URL(http) we have so many function modules under function group SFTP ,recently i used HTTP_GET to get the data from url.

  • Set DOCTYPE for a self rendered HTML page using cl_gui_html_viewer

    G'Day!
    I'm dealing with HTML in ABAP and i' stuck with a nasty little problem. Perhaps somebody know's the answer and can help me out. Thanks in advance. (I'm sorry for my poor english)
    My problem is:
    I am rendering a html page in abap and display ist using a cl_gui_html_viewer.
    Works fine.
    But now in need to set the right DOCTYPE for the rendered html page.
    If i add the DOCTYPE definition, my html page is not displayed, instead i get a display of the html-code??
    To break it down to the root:
    How can i add the DOCTYPE definition to a self-rendered html page?
    If i add the DOCTYPE definition as first element of my html table, the html code won't be interpreted.
    If i do not add the DOCTYPE defintion everything works fine.
    I need the DOCTYPE definition so that the browser won't get into quirks mode and interpretes the html tag's right.
    What i've done so far:
    (Dynpro, container, html_viewer)
    Load my JScripts (with load_mime_object)
    Load my CSS (with load_mime_object)
    Load my HTML:
    -- lt_html       TYPE w3htmltab
    ((--  APPEND  '<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">'  TO ct_html.)) this line cause my trouble
    -- filled the itab with my html tags <html>....</html> (set right url for Jscript and CSS)
    -- Load my html table and get an URL CALL METHOD gr_labform_html->load_data
    -- Load the url CALL METHOD gr_labform_html->show_url

    I've "solved" my issue with a little workaround.
    I created an empty html page with an existing DOCTYPE def and an tag like <!MYDATA!>
    After that i filled 'l_merge_table TYPE swww_t_merge_table' with my tag and my html_data.
    Loaded the whole thing with CALL METHOD gr_labform_html->load_html_document and now the DOCTYPE is set fully correct!
    But i'm still interessted why i can't set the DOCTYPE directly? Anybody knows?
    Got the idea from: Re: How can I read color from frond-end PC

  • HTML page with FLASH object doesn't reload upon a redirect

    Am using:  ECC 6.0 and ABAP SAPGUI development
    Hi All,
    I'm seeing a frustrating issue that i'm hoping others have seen and resolved.
    Here is what i'm attempting and below that is the issue:
    1)  I have created a ABAP program in which i'm using the HTML viewer (class:  cl_gui_html_viewer ) within a container that is on one of my ABAP screens.
    2)  I load up a web page on our (intra)network that displays an HTML page that has a nice FLASH navigation object.  This navigation object operates as such - when a node is clicked it will go to another html page (on the same network) that will then parse apart what node they clicked on and via javascript submit a form in which I've defined a SAPEVENT for.
    3)  My ABAP program has defined the event handler for this sap event and calls the appropriate method just fine (ON_SAPEVENT).  I am able to trap the event details and do some other things.
    This is all working just fine, except....I want it to then go back to the first page (original page) that contained the FLASH navigation on it upon after the page that trapped the SAPEVENT is complete automatically.  Easy? - that's what I thought...I tried several different ways to do this "go_back" on the html control, "show_url" (with the original URL)...even a redirect in the actual html page itself to go back.
    They all DO go back to the first page, however my flash navigation object on that page NEVER shows up!  It's almost like the frontend is thinking it is already loaded and will not load it again.  I thought maybe I need to do a "flush" or some such - but that didn't seem to solve it.  Has anyone seen this and resolved it or knows what this is?  The thing is...I can completely exit out of the program - and the flash object will load just fine (but only after I wait a minute or so).  What gives...anyone know?
    Thanks in advance,
    Matt

  • HTML Controls in ABAP (not ITS)

    Hello...   
    How to build a HTML form and post it by internet inside SAPGUI (ABAP Program)....???  It's possible....???

    Yes, its possiable.   Check out the demo program
    SAPHTML_EVENTS_DEMO.  This uses an "internal" html page which interacts with the ABAP program using HTML control.
    I've never done it, so I can't offer any simpler examples.

  • How to include HTMLB in a HTML page

    Where and what HTMLB-elements do i have to include to succeed?
    The reason for my question is, that i have to include some additional elements in a standard generated page and i prefer to us HTMLB for it.
    Thanx in advance.

  • RAISE_EXCEPTION in Precalculated HTML pages scheduling

    Rajesh,
         Please try to analyze the Short Dump. I think it won't useful for you. try search for OSS Notes. Precalculated HTML pages are SAP Provided functionality. i will try to search note for you.
    I have a Question, i'm working on Precalculated HTML pages in my DEV Box. I processed that using Reporting Agent. Using Download Scheduler i downloaded to my PC. if i go check that HTML page, i'm getting service not available.

  • BSP(Business Server Page) in ABAP

    Hi Sapient
    I would like to knw how to use BSP (Busines Server Pages) wats the tcode and to navigate thru it?
    Pls explain
    Rewards of helpful answer
    Regards
    Santosh.

    Hi,
    to work on BSP's , goto SE80 transaction(object navigator),
    and select BSP Application from the dropdown list provided.
    and here u can create BSP application.
    and by using the tagbrowser u can use html/htmlb tags for writing the code.
    --->
    BSP Concepts
    Application Class
    The application class, is a regular ABAP Objects class, that can be assigned to the BSP application, to ebcapsulate the BSP logic ans store data and make it available across BSP pages. This data is stored as attributes.
    The only requirement for an application is that the constructor is parameter-less. If not, the application class cannot be generically instantiated by the BSP runtime environment.
    The global object application can be used in the BSP application to access the attributes and methods of the application class.
    You do not have to use an application class in your BSP application. It is an optional way for you to structure your BSP application .
    The application class is assigned to the properties of the BSP application:
    Application Basis Class CL_BSP_APPLICATION
    If an application class does not already have a super class, it can be derived from the predefined base class CL_BSP_APPLICATION. This class provides methods that are typically required by a BSP application for embedding in a Web environment. This is how information about the current BSP application (such as session timeout, current URL of BSP application, state mode, and so on) can be called or set.
    As the application object is an application attribute in every BSP event handler, the methods of the CL_BSP_APPLICATION class are also available with the corresponding inheritance. This makes it easy to provide the relevant functionality to lower application levels using a single object reference
    Using the application class in an event
    The application class is used just as an ordinary class
    CALL METHOD application->kunde_gettable
    IMPORTING
    kunde_table = i_zkunder.
    Statefull/Stateless
    Statefull
    A stateful BSP application is executed like a normal SAP transaction, – independent of all user interactions - in one single context (roll area). This means that data specified by the user during the application execution or data determined by the application itself is available potentially throughout the entire execution duration of the session.
    Stateless
    Stateless BSP applications only block resources on the SAP Web Application Server during the time one single request is being processed. When the request has been processed, all resources in particular the application context are returned to the system for use in other requests.
    Statefull or Stateless ?
    As a rule of thumb, it is recommended that Internet scenarios used at the same time by a large number of users operate in stateless mode. Stateful programming is recommended for more complex applications that are used by a limited number of users in parallel and that operate with data that is expensive to determine.
    BSP Tips and Tricks
    How to use form fields in the event handler
    This examples shows how to read the value of a form field, and use it in an event handler.
    The user keys in the field zzkunnavn in the form nand presses then Save button.
    Layout

    Sets value of parameters, i.e. gets value from screen

    Gets value of parameter, so can be moved into abap field
    Note: zzkunnavn declared in page attributes
    l_kunnavn = navigation->get_parameter( name = 'zzkunnavn').

  • A tree-view in HTML page with nodes generated with java script in run time is not visible in the UI Automation Tree. Need Help

    I have a HTML page with an IFrame. Inside the Iframe there is a table with a tree view
    <iframe>
    <table>
    <tr>
    <td>
    <treeview id="tv1"></treeview>
    </td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    </iframe>
    In UIA, i am able to traverse till the tree view but not able to see it.
    I have used the TreeWalker.RawViewWalker Field to traverse the node from the desktop Automation.RootElement. 
    I tried to use AutomationElement.FromPoint method to check whether i am able to get that element. Fortunately i was able to get the automation element. 
    i tried to get the path to root element from the node element using the TreeWalker.RawViewWalker. I was able to get the parent path to the root element.
    But trying the reverse way like navigating from root element to tree node, was not getting the element for me. 
    Please help me with suggestions or inputs to resolve this issue. 

    Thanks Bernard,
    It works fine with JInitiator but not working with
    the JPI. For JPI what settings I need to do ??hi TKARIM and Bernard, i am having similar problem even with the Bernard's recommended setup. could you post the webutiljini.htm (i presume you are using config=test) ?
    i am actually using jinitiator 1.3.1.28 with Oracle HTTP Server of OAS 10gR2) calling Forms Server 6i (f60cgi). After setting up according to Bernard's recommended setup steps, the java console showed that it loaded the icon jar file when it could not read the form, but it skipped the loading of the icon jar file once it read and started the form. How do we specify in the form to pick up the icon from the jar file instead from a directory ? Or do we need to specify ? Any ideas ?
    Thx and Regards

  • FIREFOX 26 changed the 'post crash' page with the list of windows and pages. It was a real HTML page with links for each page. Now it isn't (and blows)

    * You changed the page that comes up after a crash - the one which shows the windows and pages that were up before the
    crash.
    This used to be a real HTML page and it isn't any more. THis choice was pure isiocy consider how peopel used that page every day (try taking to your users for a change).
    The pages listed on that 'post crash page' used to be actual LINKS (you could right click them &
    manually open them in another tab - and most peope DID that every day). You could also (and I did this a lot) drag a second
    copy of the page, into a new tab (to keep track of all the pages I had not wanted to open)
    Now the pages are no longer links. You cannot right-click them.
    The thing in the probser is no longer a page that I can drag into a new tab.
    Roll the version back and throw this one in the bin...and have a good long talk with your developers about the definition of
    'STUPIDITIY'
    Then I try to type anything in the addres bar it is suppose to repoond with the history of old things I have types in the past, or
    search for what I type (and in some cases I think it tyes to convert it intoa URL). However it no longer does any of these
    things. When I type in the ADDRESS BAR ONLY, I do not get all of my letters to appear. I have to type into a notepad or
    into the search and to copy and paste to go to a URL. Nothing that is typed into the address bad responds normally at all
    anymore, and I am fairly certain there are no new addons on this machine at all. It does not matter which things I disable. It
    still does this. W of course points the finger back at a change to FIREFOX. I wich I could just sitct with one stable release
    forever but the MOZILLA folk thing it is best to force peopel awy from a working broswer release to a horrible one (due to it
    being out of date).
    FIREFOX 26.0 has 'issues' (ie new *features*/bugs)
    1) History is no longer accurate. My Proof? This machine is the primary one for the entire family (the only PC working). It is
    logged in with same user every time and never has its history cleared. It now January 7 so I ought to have a list of all of last
    months browing available to me.
    However, according to FIREFOX history, in all of December 2013, the entire family only went to 51 primary URL's. None of
    the official TV sites I use to get episodes are listed. None of the official movie sites I use are listed. The primary URL for
    ebay is not listed. Only 1 out of our 4 weather sites that I use (at least once a week) are listed. Only 1 of our 3 FINANCE
    sites is listed. There ought to be several; hundred root URLs listed.
    Please fix history as this change seriously "blows greasy chunks"
    PROBLEM (a stupid change in the new FIREFOX version)
    FOr a long time, after a crash you got a useful page (a real HTML page) which gave you a list of all of your last sessions
    'winwos and tabs' that were open when the browser crashed. there were certain ways of using this page that are no longer
    able to be done.
    The old method was wonderful as it had this behavior :
    *** The old method for displaying your 'Recovered Tabs' allowed you to :
    a) right click an individual item and open it in a tab without getting rid of that lovely window of your previous session of
    'recovered windows and tabs '.
    2) drag the URL for the entire window of 'recovered windows and tabs ' to a new tab (to make a second copy) so that you
    could select just a few of them to open as a group, and stil have the old list handy.
    You can no longer do either of these things. The 'recovered windows and tabs ' page no longer has links in it and can no longer be dragged, so you cant select a few of them to use, and keep the rest around for later. NOW - once you choose which pages to open the window is gone forever (can can't get a second copy).
    People used to make a copy of the page for later use (with a drag)
    we also used to open pages with a right click (which no longer functions
    This new method seriously blows big greasy chunks. A parge loss in function has occurred.
    Put things back as they were. 26 is full of terrible changes that NOBODY likes. It also has a lot of bugs (history is not reliable at all)

    (1) Firefox's built-in post-crash page has not been a real HTML page for a long time (for example, from the time of Firefox 22, see: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968212 Want to save LOTS of versions of "Restore Session.xht" from the "oops ..." page for later use]). If you had this working differently with Firefox 25, that might have been created by an extension.
    You can check to see whether extensions are disabled or need an update on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. The disabled extensions cluster toward the bottom of the list. To poll for updates, use the "gear" button above the list and choose Check for Updates.
    If you used the Reset feature (or Firefox automatically did a reset due to some problem during upgrading), you will need to reinstall missing extensions. The reset feature creates a folder on the desktop named Old Firefox Data. Do you have that folder? There may be data you can recover from it.
    (2) There are many ways for history to get cleared, both internal to Firefox and external. Could you double-check your Privacy settings?
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Privacy
    * The "Firefox will" drop-down says Remember History: Firefox shouldn't be clearing history, but an add-on or external software could do it
    * The "Firefox will" drop-down says Use custom settings for history: inspect the "Clear history when Firefox closes" setting to make Firefox isn't set to clear history. Also check your add-ons and consider external software.
    Firefox normally accumulates months of history. However, some of Firefox's database sizes are based on disk space available. If your hard drive is very full, Firefox might reduce the amount of history stored.
