Import Web Page content into table, like Excel imports a Frame from a page

I have a need to import specific content from a web page (specific frame on the page) and store that data in a table. We currently have Microsoft Excel setup with a link to the page and import a specific frame off the page into Excel. But I would like to do this directly into PeopleSoft. Has anyone done something like this before?
Thanks
JB

Scott-
You haven't explained what the format of the text file is and
how you want to display it. You can get the contents of a file with
CFHTTP (if it's in a web-readable directory) and treat it as a
query if it is in a delimited data format. Then you can use
CFOUTPUT as you would with any other query.
You can also use CFFILE to read the contents of a text file
and display it in your page. You can use HTML PRE tags or you can
replace the CR/LF with a BR tag to force a line break.. Lots of
options, depending on your particular situation.

  • Pasting content into table cell deletes existing content. Why?

    Pasting content into table cell deletes existing content. Why?

    I'm not sure why you would expect something different. If you put something into a cell, then that is the contents of the cell. If you want to preserve the existing contents when pasting additional content, you don't want to paste into the cell, you want to paste into its contents.
    Select the cell, then click again to put the insertion point into the contents, then Paste.

  • How the data populated into tables like USR01,USR02 etc

    Hi,
    I have one theoritical doubt. How the data is populated into tables like USR01, USR02 etc after creating the
    user using SU01. Let me know the process behind it.
    Rgds,
    Chandra.

    Hi Chinna,
    When you create users using SU01, SU10 transaction codes, it uses BAPI_USER_CREATE1 which will update the data in the respective tables.
    Same way BAPI_USER_CHANGE is used when you modify any existing users.
    Hope this answers!!

  • Simulate frames by loading web page content into DIV

    Hi, does anyone know if there is a way to simulate frames
    using CSS. Essentially, I want to load the content from another web
    page into a specific DIV. The content is from another web site, we
    have permission to use it, but I want it to appear within a page on
    my site that still has my navigation and header DIVs. So I want to
    load a new page into a content DIV, as if it were a frame. Can this
    be done? Thanks, JD

    By the way, IFrames have the same problems as frames....

  • Table of contents and the order of multiple text frames flowing across pages

    I have a multi-page document,
    on each page, there are 2 text frames:
    - A text frame for containing a PAGE TITLE
    and
    - A text frame, flowing from one page to another containing: a MAIN TITLE, a SECTION TITLE, and flowing body copy (on page 1); and another MAIN TITLE, a SECTION TITLE, and flowing body copy; (on page 2)
    When I generate a TOC, using the Page, Main and Section Titles styles, the expected outcome would be:
    Page Title             1
       Main Title           1
    Section Title          1
    Page Title             2
       Main Title           2
    Section Title          2
    But because the Main title and Section titles are all within one flowing text frame and the content flows across multiple pages, and each of the Page Titles are within 2 separate text frames, the actual TOC generated is:
    Page Title             1
       Main Title          1
    Section Title         1
       Main Title           2
    Section Title          2
    Page Title             2
    ...where the TOC lists all the TOC items from the flowing text frame in one grouping first, then the individual free standing text frame title.
    QUESTION: Is the only way to automatically rectify this is to combine all the text into one flowing text frame? or is there another workaround?
    Have played with the left/right, top/bottom alignment of the individual text frames; also experimented with the object layering, to no avail..
    Thanks for any insights.

    I ended up using a product called InFlow from EmSoftware.  The solution offers a plugin to InDesign that builds pages on the fly when there is overset text.  The setup is pretty minimual and it seems easy to use.  The only drawback that the plugin MAY have is that it does not remove the pages it built if the pages are not needed from record to record.  I could not test this myself since my test data did not test more then one record, but when I turned my proof set off, the pages that were built were still on screen.  It does seem to work well for what we are looking to do, so if anyone is looking for something that will build pages on the fly in situations where the "Dynamic Story Handling" is not available, I would suggest looking into this.

  • Download to excel in different tabs from bsp page

    Hi all,
    I have a requirement in which I have to download to xl-sheet in different tabs based on some conditions from a bsp page.
    I am successful in downloading data into different tabs.
    Now I had written the piece of code required to download to xl in a function module
    and I am calling that function module when pressing a button in bsp page.
    When I run the fm seperately its working but when I run it from bsp page its not working.But while debugging I found that the fm is being called and executed perfectly without any errors.

  • How can I use PowerPivot tables like Excel tables -- printing, etc.?

    I can't seem to find any information on this anywhere, and even more surprisingly, no one else seems to have even asked this question...
    How can I use tables I create in the Excel PowerPivot window in the same ways I use tables that are in ordinary Excel worksheets, to accomplish tasks such as printing? I am able to use the powerful capabilities of PowerPivot to produce tables with precisely
    the information I need for reports -- connecting data from multiple tables/sources, filtering, etc. -- but then there doesn't seem to be any way to actually print what I'm seeing, nor can I seem to access cells in these PowerPivot tables from Excel worksheets.
    If a PowerPivot table is conceptually an Excel table with additional power in terms of pulling in data and relating it, it would seem appropriate that all the power of Excel could be brought to bear on these PowerPivot tables, but on the contrary, the available
    operations are limited. if, instead, a PowerPivot table is more correctly viewed as a data source that Excel worksheets can connect to, that would be fine, and indeed, one
    can use a PowerPivot table as a data source -- except it can't be brought into an Excel worksheet as an ordinary Excel table, unlike most other data sources.
    I hope I'm missing something really obvious, and that someone can point out what it is. Thanks.

    Kirchh,
    When PowerPivot was first designed, the decision was to integrate closely to Sharepoint to allow for team sharing. We are constantly evaluating customer feedback to add more features, and this has been one of the feedbacks we have received. We will consider
    supporting this in the future but with no gurantee.
    Chu
    -- This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights
    I'm not questioning why PowerPivot is closely integrated with SharePoint. I'm asking why connecting to the PowerPivot model from within Excel was intentionally blocked by Microsoft, when all the functionality to do so appears to be present.
    Is creating an OLE DB connection in Excel to PowerPivot as $Embedded$ supported?
    No support. It was originally designed for SharePoint. This changed with Power Pivot for Excel 2013 (it's packaged with it). Originally the scope (in 2010 through 2012) was that it was for SharePoint users. So it became more obvious through that to market it
    toward all Excel users. Thus the recent changes.

  • How can I use automator to import a .csv file into a an excel file

    I would still like all the import settings that I get if I am using excel to do the process, i.e. going in with the text format instead of the general format. That way my dates don't change

    You'll need to use Applescript in Automator.
    Note:  File extension cannot be CSV (Excel will assume that the file is comma separated), so add an action to copy or rename with extension TXT.
    (You can rename back at end of Workflow is needed)
    The Applescript Action is:
    on run {input, parameters}
         repeat with f in input
              tell application "Microsoft Excel"
                   open text file filename (f as string) data type delimited field info {{1, text format}} other char "|" with use other
              end tell
          end repeat
          eturn input
    end run
    NOTE: This is formating the 1st col to text
    If you need to format the second, then you need to:
      open text file filename (f as string) data type delimited field info {{1, general format}, {2, text format}} other char "|" with use other
    (You'll need to list the 1st col, 2nd col, etc until you get to the col to format as text).  Formats are (from the Applescript Excel Library):
    [field info list] : A list contain parse information for the individual columns of data.
    Formats are general format, text format, MDY format, DMY format, YMD format, MYD format, DYM format, YDM format, skip column.
    Or you can skip using Automator and just use an Applescript App (this is a droplet, just drop the files on the icon, or click to choose files):
    on run
         set fs to choose file with prompt "Select one or more files to open:" default location alias (the path to desktop folder as text) with multiple selections allowed
         proceed(fs)
    end run
    on open fs
         proceed(fs)
    end open
    on proceed(fs)
         repeat with f in fs
              tell application "Microsoft Excel"
                   open text file filename (f as string) data type delimited field info {{1, text format}} other char "|" with use other
               end tell
          end repeat
    end proceed

  • Importing Flash 8 Content into Premiere Pro Project

    We want to incorporate some Flash movies together with some
    NTSC DV footage (720x480 with 0.9 pixel aspect ratio). to create a
    corporate training video. We're using Premiere Pro 2.0 as our
    editor and the file that we want to ultimately produce form our
    Premiere Pro project will be an uncompressed AVI file. The video
    will likely be viewed either on a computer monitor or from a DVD
    player.
    What dimensions should I use when creating the Flash
    document? When I do the export from Flash to an AVI file, what
    dimensions should I specify for the AVI file?
    I thought that I could just create a 720x480 Flash document
    and export it to a 720x480 AVI file for import into Premiere, but
    that doesn't appear to be the case. The playback quality/clarity of
    the Flash portions of the uncompressed AVI file generated by
    Premiere is poor.
    Is it a pixel aspect ratio problem.

    I am attempting the same task with the same results. If
    anyone finds a solutions, I'd like to know too.
