IExpenses Global Policy Link - Open web page

in iExpenses there are some links at the very top and bottom of each page.
One of these is the 'Global Policy' link.
This link is not defined in a page - instead it is defined in the iExpenses application menu.
The menu entry references function 'View Policy Guidelines' (OIE_POL_VIEW_GUIDELINES).
The documentation states that you can modify the function HTML Call to call a static web page located
under OA_HTML path.
Instead Customer wants this link to open an intranet page in a new window i.e. Open a page that
is not located under OA_HTML path.
If I change the HTML call of the function to something like http://www.google.com then when the link
is pressed the browser tries to open http://<host>:port/OA_HTML/www.google.com?menu=Y which
obviously doesn't work.
Any ideas as to how we can modify the Global Policy link so it will open a web page that is not located under OA_HTML path ?

Hi,
From AOL function form to call any page we give the path in "web HTML call" field. As per the apps standard and as name indicates it can call only those pages present under $OA_HTML.
To call an OAF page, we give any page path as "OA.jsp?page=/oracle/apps/xxx/xxx/xxx/TestPG". Here "OA.jsp" is present in $OA_HTML and it will get parameter "page" value and route it accordingly.
Coming to your requirement:
Similar to above case you need to create a jsp file and keep it in $OA_HTML. Pass destinaltion URL into the page as a parameter and route it from there.
Hope I am clear.

  • Global Policy Link Does Not Open A New Browser Window in IExpenses

    Hi All,

    Global Policy Link which is located at the top of most iExpenses pages is
    supposed to open a dynamic web page (Core policy manuals) on a new browser when

    Respectfully, that answer isn't particularly helpful. I have already demonstrated that middle-clicking (mouse wheel click) will open a new instance of FF, and other programs. This was true before the upgrade from FF4 to FF6, and is true on all my VM builds (Windows 7 default install with nothing but FF installed).
    Nevertheless, I've tried shift-left-click, and it does not open a new instance. It will only open a new instance if I pin FF to the taskbar, which I have already stated I do not want to do. This new behaviour is unique to FF. Other applications (Word, Excel, Internet Explorer, whatever) all behave as expected. It is only Firefox that is misbehaving, and it is only misbehaving since the upgrade.
    My issue is that FF has changed its behaviour with respect to middle-clicking since upgrading from 4 to 6. I'd welcome helpful comments about getting FF to behave.

  • TS3276 i am unable to open web pages from email links on my ipad

    I am unable to open web pages from email links on my ipad

    A few more details might help, if nobody else recognizes this.   
    What happens when you try to open the links?
    Can you post an example of a link that doesn't work?
    Is there any particular source for the mail with the (bad) links, or is mail from all sources failing?
    If you happen to know it, what's the format of the mail message?  (Maybe the message is an image?)
    Do the embedded links work as expected from an OS X system running Mail.app, or some system and some other other mail client?
    To view the link in iOS: if you press on and hold your finger on an embedded link in most contexts, iOS will show a pop-up with the link contents, and will offer to copy it.  You can use that to acquire and post the link.  If pressing and holding on the link doesn't offer the pop-up, the format of the link itself may not be valid, or it might not really be a link.

  • Have to repetitively click links in web pages to open  in Safari

    I notice that in Safari I have to click links in web pages multiple time to get them to open. I watch the progress bar to see if it is loading and look to see if the circle is spinning and it is not. I can wait for a while and still nothing so it is not me being impatient. It does it just about all the time on Facebook and it really seems to go nutz when I click links that are pictures. I constanly empty/clear my cache/cookies and run Onyx to clean up the system and still no luck. The system is completely up to date and has snow leopard 10.6.5 I even put new mouse batteries in just to rule out a clicking problem with it. It's like Safari just does not respond and has to be told twice or more to get going. Does anyone have any ideas or tricks that might help.
    Thanks

    Hi and welcome......
    Login to another user account on your Mac. Try Safari there.
    If you experience the same problem, launch Disk Utility /Applications/Utilities
    Select MacintoshHD in the Sidebar on the left then select the FirstAid tab. Click: Verify Disk
    If Disk Utility reports errors, follow the instructions at this link. You will need your install disc. Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks
    Also, check System Preferences (Applications folder) - Universal Access. See if you have any accessibility features enabled, in particular, Mouse keys under the Mouse tab.

  • Can't get to links on web pages

    I can't get to links on web pages , shrink or enlarge the web page or show the other web pages that are open?The back arrow does work

    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

  • Detail Navigation missing when i link a web page in the WPC Scenario

    Hi to all.
    I had publish WPC site with the External Connector method.
    I have some Web Pages linked in the Navigation Structure, when i link one of this from a internal link (for example in a List link or other) I displayed the page and the detail navigation is visible and the focus on the destination page is light.
    Well, when I try to link a Web Page that not is linked in the Navigation structure (open it in the same page) the Navigation structure is missing.
    Why? How i can leave the NAvigation structure and display the page?
    Many thanks for your help in advance.

    Hi,
    this scenario is not supported by WPC. I think it was written somewhere (in a note or so). The problem is that if a page is not included in the navigation structure there is no navigation node associated. And so link to that page does not contain NavigationTarget therefore it does not trigger a real portal navigation but just displays the page in the iframe in which it has been fired. That means if you are using the standard framework page (i.e. with frames) page is shown in the inner most frame and the rest is untouched (side effect from which is that the TLN is not updated) and if you are using the light framework page after click the page is shown on the whole window as there are no iframes.
    May be you would be able to work around this by selecting such page to be opened in pop up window. Other options exist but they are more complicated as solutions.
    Hope that helps.

  • PDF -- link to web page--- in new tab??

    Hi! I´m making a PDF that will be seen in browsers and when I put the links to open web pages they always open on the same tab as the PFD... How can I make them open on a new page o tab?? Is there a Javascript code?
    Thanks!!!

    The code to do it is:
    app.launchURL("http://www.google.com", true);
    But keep in mind it's not going to work if the PDF file is opened in non-Adobe PDF viewers.

  • Links on web pages are blocked?

    To day suddenly the links on all web pages do not work. Facebook I try to view more of a ad or post and it never opens to the rest of the post. To day I was visiting a real state web site and the link to switch from house info to map would not open. So smaller links on a link will not open.
    Exapmple: Open web page. Find a item to look at. Click to read item and any little links inside that link will not open.

  • Opening Web Pages

    Hello,
    I'm currently trying to open a web page within a browser. Currently I can only open a web browser with the web page. Here is the code.
    public class MyApp2
    private static final String errMsg = "Error attempting to open web page";
        public static void contURL() {
            String url= "http://www.google.com";
            String osName = System.getProperty("os.name");
            Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
            try{
                   if (osName.startsWith("Windows")) {
                                // this doesn't support showing urls in the form of "page.html#nameLink"
                        rt.exec( "rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler " + url);     }
                   else if (osName.startsWith("Mac OS")) {
                            rt.exec( "open " + url);    
                   else {
                            // Do a best guess on unix until we get a platform independent way
                                // Build a list of browsers to try, in this order.
                                String[] browsers = {"epiphany", "firefox", "mozilla", "konqueror",
                                        "netscape","opera","links","lynx"};
         // Build a command string which looks like "browser1 "url" || browser2 "url" ||..."
                                StringBuffer cmd = new StringBuffer();
                                for (int i=0; i<browsers.length; i++)
                                    cmd.append( (i==0  ? "" : " || " ) + browsers[i] +" \"" + url + "\" ");
                                rt.exec(new String[] { "sh", "-c", cmd.toString() });
                        }catch (Exception e){
                              JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, errMsg + ":\n" + e.getLocalizedMessage());
    }Works well to open browsers (though it is opening in tabs and not new windows, could use some help in that too), I want to take an already open browser and open a new page leaving behind the the page currently on.
    Edited by: DarkGhost89 on Jan 12, 2008 9:14 PM

    I'd suggest reading the browser help pages for their command line arguments (if such documentation exists; generally this area of browser documentation is poor) and see if the browsers in question allow you to specify a target argument on the command line, in addition to the URL. I mean target as in the attribute to HTML links. (e.g., ). If such an argument exists, it might be different on each browser, which means you'll need to need to break up the non-Windows cases into many different cases. You might want to use "which" on unix boxes to find out which browsers are available.
    This is just a reasonable guess. I have no idea whether "target" is supported like this by any browser.

  • The list of open web pages just flipped from right to left. How do I get it back on the right? Thankyou.

    The list of open web pages, which normally sits bottom right on my screen, flipped to the left. How can I move it back to the right?
    I clicked Alt + tab and saw 'Deplacer' (Reposition - I'm in France). Then the cursor became a thing like a crossroads and I clicked where I wanted to put the list of open pages but nothing happened.

    You may have placed the bookmarks icon on the Navigation Toolbar to open the bookmarks in the sidebar instead of the bookmarks menu button that opens a drop down list.<br />
    There are two icons available for opening or accessing the bookmarks that both have a star.<br />
    The icon with the drop marker opens the drop down list with the bookmarks (Bookmarks Menu button).<br />
    The other, without the star, opens the bookmarks in the sidebar, just like the Ctrl+B shortcut or View > Sidebar > Bookmarks

    Any help is apreciated!

    the getAppletContext() method of the Applet class will get you an AppletContext, with which you can call the ShowDocument(URL url) or ShowDocument(URL url, String target) method...
    check it out at http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/applet/AppletContext.html

  • Firefox 4.0.1 closes with no error message. When I restore the session I get: Well, this is embarrassing. Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page. What can I do?

    After opening certain websites, pogo, firefox 4.0.1 closes with no error message. When I restore the session I get: Well, this is embarrassing. Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs. This is usually caused by a recently opened web page.
    I have had this problem before and had to reinstall an earlier version of firefox.
    The error console has a long list of errors, many of them end with: does not implement nsIObserver. Is there a way to send the information on the error console to firefox support?
    Redownloading Firefox 4.0 will fix my problem until I either close firefox or turn off my computer. The problem recurs when I open firefox again.

    I would like to know how to get a list of open web pages in Firefox (in Linux), because I have a shortcut to open a web page and I want to get it to see if Firefox has the page open first so that it doesn't open duplicates.

    You see the "List All Tabs" button in current Firefox versions if there are that many tabs open that you get the Tab bar scroll buttons appearing.
