Is client browser's actual height accessible?

Hi all,
I have an UI Element IFrame, whose height setting puzzles me.
If I set the height as default or 100%, the IFrame can't retrive my browser's actual height and occupies only a small part on my screen.
If I fix the height by ****pixel, adjusting it to occupies a full-page on my screen, it may have a different apperence on others' PC if they have a different "screen resolution" setting.
I'm wondering, is there a way to get the actual height of the client's browser, then I can set the IFrame height dynamically?
Thanks for your attention.

Hi Ayyapparaj,
Actually I had taken a search on Internet about "IFrame height", and found some similiar topics - although most of which are in the domain of HTML IFrame.
The mentioned solutions on these topics mainly point to "dynamically setting the IFrame height" using JavaScript - that's why I wish to be able to retrive the client browser information.
Anyway, thank you very much for your information.

How to find Browser Widh and Height?

Hi,
Is it possible to find the client browser height and width using WebDyn Pro..?
My Scenario : I have a Tree on the left of the screen and content area on right and i want to put them in seperate scrollcontainers and the height and width of the scrollcontainer has to be set.
Thanks and Regards
Chandu

If I have understood your question correctly then probably you are looking for a way to know the client screen size (monitor size) to set your scroll containers height. I dont think it is possible to know this information in Web Dynpro.

URL iviews are not cached in client browser!!!

Hi All,
We have URL ivews of ASP.NET pages in our Portal Home page.
Those ASP.NET pages are located in MS Windows Server (IIS).
It takes long time to load the Portal Home page.
We set the Allow Client-Side Caching - Yes, Cache Level - Shared, Cache
Validtiy Period: 7.59.59 for all URL iviews.
For the Home page which contains all URL iviews Isolation Method
property is set to Embedded.
We set "Enable Content Expiration" - 8 Hours for the "Root - virtual
directory" in IIS.
When I browse those pages with the URL directly in IE (outside Portal).
It runs faster and returns with HTTP status code "cached".
All the pages including HTML are cached in client browser.
When I logged into portal all images, css and javascript files are
cached in the client browser but not the HTML content. It returns with
HTTP status code 200 whick means URL iviews are not cached in client browser.
Thanks
Thruna Shanmuga

Hi Thruna,
The only header which influences caching behaviour in your request is the 'Cache-Control: private' header, which afaik means that the page cannot be cached by a shared cache (such as a web proxy), but can be cached in a personal proxy such as the browser cache.
However the headers do not specify a specific expiration date which means that the browser cannot know how long the response can be cached and thus has to check validity every browser session. The most optimistic scenario would be that the browser checks if the cached entry is still valid by requesting the resource and adding a If-Modified-Since or If-None-Match header. The server could then respond with a 304 Not Modified, skipping sending the actual resource in the response body.
If you want the resource to be fully cached you have to give it an expiration date in the future. This has to be done in the IIS server, maybe through ASP tags in the page.
I do not know why the page is loading from cache in the non-portal scenario but I can only suggest that you make absolutely sure the cache item was not validated already in the session.
With kind regards,
Thijs Janssen

Client Browser mis-identifies Firefox as IE

It seems that the conditional display Client Browser condition is mis-identifying Firefox as IE. When I create a region with a condition of "Client Browser: Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5, 6.0 or higher", the region is visible in both IE 7.0 and Firefox. When I create one with a condition of "Client Browser: Mozilla, Netscape 6.x/7x or higher", the region is not visible in either.
Anyone else notice the same behavior?

Anyone else notice the same behavior?No, I've never had occasion to use this type of condition. However I don't find it surprising. Think there's a clue in there with the mention of IE 5.5 and NS 6. Looks like these conditions date back a while, to the time when men were men, Firefox was young, and Javascript was flaky.
Whatever method of user agent detection is in use may have been overtaken by browser developments. (If it's using plain old user agent strings then it was never likely to prove very robust as most browsers can be configured to spoof UA strings.)
Unable to test this at present, so can't confirm these findings or find out what happens if using, say, Safari, Chrome or Opera. However, the existence of browsers and versions not covered by these conditions makes me very doubtful about relying on them. They've also not been covered in the documentation.
Are you reporting this out of disinterested curiosity or do you think you actually have a requirement to know what browser is being used?

How to get Client(browser) current date/time in BIP report

Hi,
I need to display report generated date in BIP report and this should be client(browser) current date/time. I tried the following things.
1. have used MS Word Native Date/time using Insert->Date/Time. And we have chosen the M/d/yyyy h:mm:ss am/pm format. but it is printing BIp server date/time, not client date/time.
2. <?xdofx:sysdate?>, <?xdoxslt:sysdate_as_xsdformat()?> and <?format-date:xdoxslt:sysdate_as_xsdformat();'SHORT_TIME'?> are giving GMT Date/Time, but we need client Date/Time.
3.<?xdoxslt:sysdate('DD-MON-YYYY HH12:mi:ss')?> is giving the system date/time of the machine where BIP server is installed.
Could you provide some help in this??
Thanks
Hari

Hello, Hari,
what would return something like this:
Execution date:
<?xdoxslt:current_date('ja-JP', 'Asia/Tokyo')?>
<?xdoxslt:current_time('ja-JP', 'Asia/Tokyo')?>
@Vetsrini,
for my opinion,
in the countries where time is switching (winter/summer) using the hard coded time zones in the format-date() cause a problem:
for example:
if we enter the date in date prompt in summer it will return PM_DT = 2010-07-20T00:00:00.000+04:00
in winter 2010-07-20T00:00:00.000+03:00, so,
using <?format-date:PM_DT;'DD.MM.YYYY';'GMT+3'?> return 2010-07-20 in winter and 2010-07-19 in summer.
regards,
Eldar A.

How to get the actual height of JEditorPane?

I have a basic question on the JEditorPane. Do I have to show the JEditorPane on a temporary Frame in order to get the actual height? My work around is to show the JEditorPane on a frame, get the JEditorPane height, then dispose the frame. It would be nice if I can get the actual height of JEditorPane without showing the frame.
This is test my code.
import java.awt.*;
import java.lang.*;
import java.net.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Test {
public static void main (String [] args) {
double w = 0;
double h = 0;
JEditorPane editorPane = null;
try {
URL url = new URL("file:test.html");
editorPane = new JEditorPane(url);
} catch (Exception e) {}
editorPane.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 700));
w = editorPane.getWidth();
h = editorPane.getHeight();
// output "width: 0 height: 0"
System.out.println("width: " + w + " height: " + h);
// This my work around the get the actual height
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(editorPane);
JFrame frame = new JFrame("TESTING");
frame.getContentPane().add(scrollPane);
frame.pack();
frame.show();
// wait for loading data
try {
Thread.sleep(20000);
} catch (Exception e) {}
w = editorPane.getWidth();
// actual height based on the width and the size of test.html
h = editorPane.getHeight();
// output "width: 597 height: 24320"
// 24320 is the actual height that i want
System.out.println("width: " + w + " height: " + h);
frame.dispose();

Information kept in client browser cache

Hi all,
Does anyone know what kind of information is stored in client browser cache when users are logged into Planning or Workspace?
We have a concern from customer Information Security department concerning to confidential information (data) that could be left behind on browser cache when users log out from applications.
We need to provide a confirmation to customer that all confidential information that could be found on client browser cache is deleted after the users end their work sessions.
Thanks in advance,
Marilia

The question is what counts as confidential information.
You can use the Firefox browser to login and go to Planning and then in another tab do about:cache
Using this the below web pages are in the cache. I browse through these cached pages and one of them has application name and database names which some people may consider confidential depending on the context.
Suggest you provide them a view only login and ask them to use Firefox and let them determine if that information is confidential.
The cached information from my session follows:

Client Browser Checking

I am looking for some Plumtree Classes or Interfaces that I can use to enable client browser checking - check to see if the client is using what version of IE or Netscape or Mozilla. We are trying to trap these process and make this a Plumtree UI solution-side instead of handling this through IIS. We are attempting to place these browser checking proccesses inside OnBeforeLogin PEI. Handling a browser check to detect the client browser to see if they are using an out-dated browser version, if client is using out-dated browser version, throw them a message box stating that client will lose some functionality if using dated browsers. Has someone here already done and went through this task?
I have seen the classes before but do not remember what Plumtree-centric object package they belong with and now I cannot find it. If anyone know what the classes or objects are could you guys point me to the right direction??
Thanks for the assist
Ray Salgado, State of Maryland, 410.260.6083

Thanks Don!
Got that, that is great for the first step of the browser sniffing process. To get the browser type.
Second step is to get the browser version - We also need to detect the client browser version so as create a condition as something like "If IE version 4 below" or "Netscape 5 or below" then we can create a redirect to a community page that has some User Advisory messages warning them that if they continue with the request with the browser they are using then navigation and presentation performance and experience may vary. User can choose to continue or backup.
Thanks

Error during start "discoservlet" at client browser.

My Environment :-

How do I read the actual height of the panel title bar (or actual total panel height)

In Flex 4.5:
I have panel which is reading panel.height as 159, however it contains a swf in a swfloader which is 400 in height so it should be more than 400.
I need to know what the actual height of the panel is so I can scaleX and scaleY it to full screen height eg. scale=screenheight/panelHeight.
I know the content container will be 400 (the size of the movie) but can't read the height of the titleBar, and the overall panel height is returning the wrong value.

Spark Panels don't clip. Maybe that's what is going on? Also check the
measuredHeight of the Panel.

How to trap client browser window closing thru JSP or servlets

How to trap client browser window closing thru JSP or servlets?
Gunjan

Hi
Though some JavaScripts may provide you with solutions , yet there is no reliable way to detect the closing of the browser by the servlet. One way to achieve detection of user quitting a session is setting session timeouts ion the server side. This can be done either through the web.xml file or programatically by setting the session.setMaxInactiveInterval().
Good Luck!
