Images and XML forms and Images and scaling
Hello,
I have two questions about using images in XML forms.
1) How do I insert images into the XML form editor.
The thread HTML Editor in XML Form? (Posted: Aug 26, 2004 7:50 PM), discuss how the HTML Editor in XML forms can be extended to be able to insert images like in the KM editor.
Has anyone any practical experience with this?, as the thread is fairly old.
And is there other solutions which are more suited?
The portal is running on WAS 6.40, EP 6.0 SP11
2) Is is possible for the portal to scale images
In the portal, different users will use XML forms to publish news stories. These users will want to publish images along with the text.
In many content management systems, the system will automatically scale the images (e.g. create one thumbnail, a mid-size image and keep the full size) Can this be achieved in the portal.
The reason for this is to make sure that no one can post a very large image and to make sure each image is the same size.
I'm interested in hearing how other people, solve the issue with uploading and scaling of images used in the portal.
Kind regard,
Jørgen Ruud
Will reward SDN points.
Hi Sumit,
Just to add to what Duncan had said ... please ensure the following things as well
1. Access portal using FQDN
2. Maintain proper browser settings http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/EP/MSIE6BrowserSettingsforaccessingSAP+Portals
3. Please go through the forum link http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1814082

Is it possible to create a standard form that can be emailed to anyone and once filled out by the receiver, have a button that the receiver clicks and the form is encrypted and attached to an email back to the sender and a preset admin password would open it?
Hello Graphicsguy123,
You would need to first create the form ( or Widget in EchoSign) first to generate a url which you can paste it in the email being sent to customers. You would need to make sure you have a Document Cloud Enterprise Premium account in order to create a Widget. If you don't have the account, you can use the trial version to test it. Here is the link:

KM Repository images,and XML Forms not displaying.
Hello All,
I am currently running NW04 SPS14 Portal with KM & Collaboration.
However, the icons in the Content Management>> Explorer>> Documents repository are not displaying. Instead a little while box, with a red x sign appears in place of the images.
When I launch the XML Forms builder, the application doesnt load.
Also, the content developed using XML forms are no longer displaying, instead I get an error message "<b>Resource cannot be displayed with XML Resource Renderer</b>"
I will appreciate any suggestion that will help to resolve this problem.
Thank you.

How can you update the content of a textfield in a dynamic xml form from MSAccess and VBA
I am trying to use the code below to update a field in a dynamic xml form created by Livecycle.
I can read the field content but cannot change it.
What am I missing?
Thanks

Dim oPDF As AcroPDDoc

End SubYou need to research the difference between an AcroForm and an XFA form. You're trying to access a "Field" object, which is an AcroForm object. An XFA form does not have fields, it has nodes. The JavaScript you are using is specific to AcroForms and you are working with an XFA form.

Metadata Properties and XML Form
Hello,
I have two metadata properties, Country and City, City is a dependent properties, when I select a Country the City change according to the value of Country. I put in the XML form two combo box associated with Country and City properties, the Country is filling correctly, but the City is filled with numbers instead of the name of the City, and it dont change according to the Country. If I see the properties in the details of the Xml Forms this two properties work fine. What is wrong? It is possible to include a dependent property in a XML Form or there is another way to do that?
Thanks in advance for your help
Maria TeresaHello,
Thanks for your help, but I read this document and I create the properties Country and City, they work fine if I check this in the Details of a document, but when I put this two properties in the XML Form, the Country property works fine, but the City property isn't filled with the valued I configured. What is wrong, how can I put a dependent property in a XML Form?

Flash files as images in XML Forms
Hi Crew,
Anyone had to use flash files in XML forms Based Publishing?
Have created a simple XML Project asking the user to select two images, and these are then displayed in an iView.
gifs & jpegs display no problemo. swf (flash files) do not.
Any ideas?
PaulHi Paul,
I need to display a .swf file in a XML form. I read the solution that you have posted about modifying the XSL file, but i have no clue how to go ahead with this.
Could you kindly provide any document, link or the solution as to how to modify the XSL file ?
Any kind of help would be truly appreciated. -
Hi Guys,
Need some help here. I want to set a fix image in my renderlistitem view. I have store the images in a folder in KM and have place the file path at the 'image url' of the form. Unfortunately, when i try to disply in the portal, i got a blank image with a small 'x' with caption 'show this image'. What am i doing wrong here? ThanksHI
while navigating in ur xml to fix the location of image could u able to have a thumbnail image in the selection screen ?
it could that generation of thumbnail will be terminated automatically after 60 sec after this time u will find image with default x mark.
try with image of low size ,as this could be one solution if i am predicting the problem correctly
u may need to need to configure it in thumbnail plugins if u want ur high quality image to be loaded.

How to show image in Smart Form dynamically , Image is stored on local PC
Hi All,
I have a requirement where user can attach any image to PM Order in T-code IW33. Now this image gets stored on user`s local PC.
After this user will generate a report which is a Smart form, On this Smartform i have to show that attached image.
So that image will contain Order Id and attached image.
How this can be achieved.
Regards,
AbhishekActually this Image(Image of Signature ) will be coming from Mobile device and then it will be stored as an attachment for an PM Order.
So there will not be any manual interuption and therefore no one will be storing this in se78. But this image gets stored in local PC. And now i have to get this image on my Smartform.
Any idea how to do it?

XML Forms and Posting Directly to iView
Hey Everyone,
This is my first time posting a question on SDN, so please forgive me if I leave anything out.
I have a question regarding XML Forms and iViews. We are using EP 6.40 SP12.
I would like to have an XML Form filled out and have it's contents sent directly to an iView which is located on the opening screen of our Portal. The scenario is that every Tuesday the form will be filled out, saved and will appear on the user's Portal. An appropriate folder structure has been created in KM to hold all the forms, etc...
Any help would be much appreciated,
Cheers
RavHi Ravinder,
After generating the forms,you have to create iViews for the Forms,Authoring iview and Render List iView.
These iViews can be assigned to users,or assigned to some page using Delta link.
The updated news will be available as a List on the Browser iView,which can be clicked to drill details.
The properties are set in the iView properties of Layout Set ,for example for authoring iView
Layout Set = NewsExplorer
For render List iView
Layout Set = NewsBrowser
Path to Initially Displayed Folder /documents/myNews
The values will change depending upon the form name.
Please go through this document for a detailed example
<a href="https://media.sdn.sap.com/html/submitted_docs/Best_Practices/EP/documentation/How-to_Guides/KM/How%20to%20create%20XML%20forms.pdf">https://media.sdn.sap.com/html/submitted_docs/Best_Practices/EP/documentation/How-to_Guides/KM/How%20to%20create%20XML%20forms.pdf</a>

JCo Calling BAPI and generate htm and xml page in output

I am developing an Application in Java using JCO. The requirement there is a list of BAPI's are available for the selection, once the user select the BAPI , it will dynamically generates the screen of input parameters and than result will be stored in .htm and .xml file. It works for many BAPI's, but for few of that it won't work. Will you help me out why its gng to create problem for other BAPI's.
e.g.
BAPI_SALESORDER_GETLIST
BAPI_PO_GETITEMS
BAPI_MATERIAL_GET_DETAIL and few more...
It doesn't generate the proper output of these BAPI's.
Thanks.
HItesh ShahTanveer,
There are many files so i wont be able to put the codes but let me tell u how i m doing.
1) Giving the options to user in which server they want to connect.
2) After connection has been established there is a plain text file available which consists the list of BAPI's which will be displayed in the list box.
3) After user select any BAPI and press a button named 'DETAILS' it will display the Import/Export/Tables list.
4) After clicking on Next , i m generating a dynamic screen for input parameters.
5)Here is this step also one problem is that i have to write all the zeros, can u tell me if i want to pad the zeroes automatically what i will do.Becz every time the input parameters of each BAPI would be different.
6) After getting input parameters i will generate the .htm and .xml file using writeXML and writeHTML function.
7) I want to show them generated xml and html file in iexplore using clicking button...Can u tell me how to achieve that.
Here is the code through which my xml and htm file will be generated.

Hi All,
In my xml form builder application, i have to insert an image inside the UI "HTML Editor". But there is no option called as "insert image from km" into the HTML Editor? How can i have that option called "Insert Image From KM" ?
I tried "configuration of the HTML editor" in
Knowledge Management Content Management Utilities Editing HTML Editing.
I enabled the option "Allow Images". Then too it is not reflecting in HTML Editor UI.
What else can be done for getting that property on HTML Editor UI?
Thanx and Regards,
DivyaHi,
My understanding is that the standard HTML editor control from SAP is quite limited. You can copy and paste an image into it (but the image has to already be in KM) - it has no nice control for selecting or positioning the image....
Some options:
1. There are options like TinyMCE which I belive can be used in place of the standard HTML editor control.
2. If the structure of the content on you page is fixed then you could add images into the form as images that the user would provide links for - but this is not as free form as you would maybe like.
Hope this helps,

Can we include a Document into a XML Form
Hi!
If I want to attach a document into a XML Form is posible?
i.e an Excell Document.
Thanx in Advanced!
Gerardo JHi Gerardo,
The info it's on my brain, jejeje, I have some experience with XML Forms. I really don't think you can attach (by standard/default) anything to an xml form, everything is a refence (even images).
XML Forms generates xml files, witch are rendered thru layouts and the configuration you set in the RenderList and Show forms.
Unless you find some kind of deployment that unifies the xml document with the file you want you will have to work with the references (link).
Best Regards,
Jorge M.
