Link to folder contents

Is it possible to create a link the shows the contents of a
folder instead of opening a specific file.
For example: A link entitled "Forms" which opens a folder
with a number of different forms inside which allows you to pick
the particular form you want to open.
Does that make sense? and can I do that??

Yes. Link to the folder, and ask your host to enable
directory browsing....

Setting up to View Folder Contents in Browser

I have placed 40 jpg images in a folder on my web site. How
can I let visitors view the file names (folder contents) &
select an image by name.
I hate to have to make a page & enter all 40 image file
names with links to the files. Is there a better way to do this?
Thanks,
Dennis

You could enable directory browsing in the directory, but
then you'll
need to accept the rather ugly server default index page. If
it were me,
I'd write a short script that read the directory and
displayed a more
attractive listing. How you would go about that would depend
on what
server scripting language(s) you have available on the
server.

Link to Folder in Folder Portlet

We display our folder contents within a portlet. It's important that all of those links present their contents in the portlet. This typically works.
However, if an item is linking to another folder, the link presents its content on the entire page, not within the portlet.
How can I link from one folder to another and keep the result within my portlet?

Luke,
For inplace display, use parameter passing. The only drawback is that the parameters will be seen in the address bar.
You will need to use an intermediate handler procedure, which accepts your folder display call and builds the page URL
with the parameters attached. In your folder portlet, use wwpro_api* to get the parameters.
Check out the parameter passing portlet for tips on how to implement parameter passing in plsql portlets.

Creating links to folder resources in XDB repository

Hi,
I have a problem with creating links to folder resources in Oracle XDB repository, especially when I delete child resources from the linked folder or the linked folder itself.
For instance, if I have the following two resources:
/public/folder1/mydocument.xml
/public/folder2
and then create a link to folder1 within folder2 like this:
begin
dbms_xdb.link('/public/folder1', '/public/folder2', 'mylinkedfolder');
end;
and then delete the resource from the linked folder, like this:
delete from path_view where equals_path('/public/folder2/mylinkedfolder/mydocument.xml') = 1;
the resource 'mydocument.xml' is completely removed from the database, from both locations. The manual states that: "Deletion of a link deletes the resource pointed to by the link if and only if that was the
last link to the resource and the resource is not versioned." Before executing the delete statement the following query gives two results (links):
select path from path_view where resid = <<resid of mydocument.xml>>
The statements:
begin
dbms_xdb.deleteresource('/public/folder2/mylinkedfolder/mydocument.xml', dbms_xdb.DELETE_RECURSIVE_FORCE);
end;
and:
delete from path_view where path = '/public/folder2/mylinkedfolder/mydocument1.xml'
result in the same behavior. Also, when I remove the folder '/public/folder2/mylinkedfolder', the document mydocument.xml is also removed from both locations.
Is this behavior expected behavior? Is there another way to get the behavior that is described in the manual?
Thanks,
Maarten

Removing the second link to the folder should not delete the contents unless you specify delete recursive when doing so.. See below

Is it possible to create a link on the content of a text annotation??

Is it possible to create a link on the content of a annotation??? Like the content of an annotation is some notes as well as a link...
content -
this is my first annotation(notes)
http://www.google.co.in/(link)
is it possible to create a link for the url given in the content of an annotation??? On click on the url...it should get opened...
please reply its really urgent....

How/where do you want to accomplish it?
Within the document? Using Acrobat? Using another application?
Using Acrobat within the document would be possible using Acrobat JavaScript. You can access the annotation objects of your document, and you then can evaluate the properties of each of these objects. Have a closer look at the Annotation Object section in the Acrobat JavaScript documentation.
You will look for the contents property, and evaluate its content. When you have found something looking like a URL, you can create a link (using the rect property of the annotation), and you have what you want; you might then think to destroy the annotation, as it may overlay the link.
Hope this can help.

Thanks Barney, I tried that but all that comes up in Spotlight are the log files that show the file paths! I don't know how Steam works. Are all the files held by Steam on their server perhaps?

C: drive is full - move only iTunes Media folder contents to another drive without consolidating?

My iTunes library contains a combination of music/movies/etc that I've purchased or downloaded from the iTunes Store as well as music I've purchased from Amazon and my own ripped CDs (not ripped via iTunes...other software). The Amazon and ripped files have always lived on my D drive (for easier sharing betwen family members, without opening up permissions on our User folders), while the Store files all live under my User profile on C.
I'd like to move the iTunes Media folder contents off of C and onto D. All the instructions that use "consolidating" and "keeping the media folder organized" will not work for me, since I do not want all my files under the iTunes Media folder...I like them where they are now in D:\Music\Amazon and D:\Music\CDCollection.
Do I have to resort to moving the files myself, adding them into the library again, then cleaning up the orphaned library entries that are pointing to the old location?
Thanks!

Copy the entire iTunes folder from your music folder to D:\iTunes.
Click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key. Keep holding until asked to choose or create a library.
Click Choose and navigate to the file D:\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl
Check the library is working properly.
Use the option File > Library > Organize Library > Consolidate Files to import any stay files to the new library folder.
Delete the old iTunes folder on the C: drive.
Ideally you will also backup this library to another drive.

Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help.

Hello, the 'Save As' dialog box used to allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory when the focus is in the folder contents box but it does not work any more, please help. BTW the same 'Save As' dialog in other applications still allow the backspace button to go up one level in the directory.

cor-el,
I kept forgetting and procrastinating about following your instructions, since I have internet access only for limited amounts of time and usually I am busy with important tasks when I am.
Out of the blue, the problem corrected itself (the Save As box started to open full screen, then shrunk down to a normal size and the edges can now be dragged to a custom size).
Even the copy and paste problem in the filenaming area seems to have been less troublesome lately even though there have been no updates to Firefox in a few weeks.
Even though I marked the solution as not helpful, the problem has in fact been resolved. I will save the solution instructions in case the issue returns.

Imac slow to display folder content

Hi,
My Mid 2010 Imac 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3 with 4GB 1333 MHz RAM is currently having problems displaying folder content. As I am a photographer I am often opening folders of images and needing to view them and recently when I click on a folder or sub-folder the images can take upto a few minutes to display (making it look like the folder is empty). It only seems to happen intermittently.
I have already checked hard disk space and have 371 gb free space. I was also advised to look at the green coloured free memory segment in the pie chart on the Activity Monitor which was very small. Since closing lots of programs which were sat on my dashboard and also deleting some items off of my Desktop this has now improved and is running around the 475 MB mark. Despite this, the displaying of folder content has NOT improved in the slightest.
Can anyone help?
Many Thanks

Surprising that the RAM hasn't improved things. Once you've resolved the current issue I'm sure you will notice a boost in performance 12gb is ample RAM for most uses.
Before re-installing it is vital to have a backup of all your data so that you can restore in the unlikely event of a problem. Re-installing the OS will not delete you data, but backup - at any time - is essential. An up-to-date Time Machine backup or a bootable clone of your HD using an application such as Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper! will do the job. Many on here keep both forms of backup.
If you do decide to re-install the OS you can do it from the Recovery HD. Restart holding down Command + R and from the screen with 4 choices select Re-install OS - you'll need an active internet connection and you might need to input your AppleID credentials to perform the install. It's a 4gb download so it might take some time, depending on your connection speed.

Link to Document Content Type issue - links not relative

I'm using the Link to Document content type in a library in order to link to documents in other libraries. We just migrated to 2010 from WSS 3.0 (2007) and are having an issue. We view our site internally thorough the internal machine address/name
and also have users connecting remotely from an external url. In 2007, it didn't matter whether we were internal or external, all links were apparently stored as relative because the "link to document" items worked fine either way. This
was despite entering the url fully and not relative. When viewing/editing the properties of that item, it shows you the full url applicable to where you are viewing it...internal if internal, external if external.
However, after the migration to 2010, all links that existed previously are fine, but any new items created using link to document apparently no longer store them as relative so either the internal or external users get the wrong link. For example,
if I put in the link as http://servername/library/doc the external users get that same link and it doesn't work, since it should be like https://myurl/library/doc. Viewing/editing the properties of the item shows an absolute url of whatever location
the item was added. For instance if I'm connected externally and add an item, even if i only enter it as relative, it creates the link as https://myurl/library/doc and then the internal users end up having to connect via that url and that is just a pain
due to AD and certificate issues. The internally created links are obviously not accessible at all from the outside.
I've also tried storing the link as relative when creating the item but it seems to overwrite it with the absolute link.
This is causing quite an issue with us. Does anyone have any insight as to what is going on and how to fix it?
thanks!

Hmm...I thought I had the thread set to email me if there were replies and I never received an email so I thought there were no replies. I came back to this since another issue cropped up that is related and there were replies!
I cannot recall how things were set up exactly in 2007 and there's no way to look back now. I'm a novice when it comes to AAM/DNS/IIS really. Maybe you can suggest what it should look like?
We have our site which is accessed internally by http://machinename . Externally, we use https://sharepoint.mydomain.com .
In AAM we have http://machinename listed in the default zone with the same url for internal and public. We also have https://sharepoint.mydomain.com listed, in the internet zone and it also has the same url for both internal and public.
In IIS, the sharepoint site has bindings for port 80 and 443, but nothing specific to https://sharepoint.mydomain.com
DNS....I'm not sure what should be here, if anything.
We can access the site just fine externally, there are just a few instances where some links do not work correctly and point to the internal url instead of external when you are external. The original post is one time and the other, found the other
day, is a search box webpart that points to a relative url for the results page but externally it ends up going to the internal url.
I'd appreciate any guidance. Thanks!

How To: Create a link to gatewayed content (e.g. in email)

I apologize if this is too basic of a question but I can't find any results after looking for several hours.
I would like to generate a URL in an email that points to the portal and a specific portlet in the portal. The portlet has limited access rights so the URL should cause the portal to go through the login page and then redirect to the portlet. Can anyone point me to the documentation that describes this or give me an example?
Thanks in advance!
Mike

Using the PTARGS might also solve another difficulty I've encountered passing (dynamic) querystring parms to portlets through the gateway. Your example seems to work great for portlets, but now trying to access a Community page containing a portlet to retain branding elements.
For portal pages, should the ObjectID be the pageID (i.e PageID=0 for the default page) or is the ObjectID for a community page some other value (where in PlumDB is this stored) ? I changed the ClassIDView to 514 which should indicate a Community Page but it's still not loading my page. Adding to my confusion, the PTCOMMPAGES table stores the PageID as a negative value.
Here's my example:
http://portalserver/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_0_0_0_201_0_514/http%3B/portletserver/ApplicationName/default.aspx?querystring=value
Any thoughts?
re: How To: Create a link to gatewayed content (e.g. in email) Posted by Mike Beniston 5/5/05 9:45:40 AM It turned out that I was pretty close.
If anyone else is interested, here is one way that works.
The PTARGS are _0_userid(leave at 0)_objectid(of portlet)_communityID(if any)_0_ClassIDView(43 = view for portlet)
"http://portalserver/portal/server.pt/gateway/PTARGS_0_0_348_208_0_43/http://portletserver/ApplicationName/pagename?querystring arguments.

How to import catalog and create new link to folder in a new external disk

How to link c-Folder with DMS?

Hello,
I'm a new in this tool and i would like to know somethings.
1) What the Object Type i use to link c-Folder with DMS?
2) Can I do this if I install C-Folder in a separate server other than SAP R/3?
Regards
Pedro Sasso

Hi,
DO you mean via the 'Object Linking' feature in DMS?
If yes, please ensure that the 'c-projects Elements' object has been selected for the particular document type in DC10.
Also, to view the attached DIR in c-projects, ensure that the RFC is established b/w c-projects and DMS.
Yes..you can,since c-Folders has functionality of maintaining public and private collaboration scenarios so c-Folders is being used to communicate between Suppliers and Vendors.
c-Folders is not like webDMS, it is a separate application for which the link can be created from portal itself.
In c-Folders user ID and password can be created which need not have any licenses.
Hope it helps you.
Thanks

Printing Finder (Folder) Contents

I often have need to print the contents of a folder as it appears in the finder (i.e. print the finder window or some list of filenames in the folder). There is no "Print" command in the file menu when a window is open. I have been taking snapshots of various views, but sometimes end up with multipl snapshots.
Is anyone aware of another way to do this?
Thanks in advance!

Bookmark drag down list difficulty-folder contents overlay folder list

Previous Firefox versions: Bookmark folders drag down in column list, contents of each folder appear in column to right of the folder list, similar to arrangement of an outline page with each subcategory tabbed over.
New version: Contents of folders appear as I scroll down through the folder column, preventing me from seeing the next folder in column. E.G. As I scroll down past "Business" to get to my "Travel" folder, contents of business folder open on top of the main folder column preventing me from dragging down further to Travel.

I do agree. Mine is not *perfectly* fixed neither. When the folder’s contents list is wide and contains subfolders, the cursor needs to go completely above or below those subfolder’s contents to be released from displaying it. I can readily imagine how yours is not practical.
But mine is decent enough that I am going to live with it for now, hoping that the prior functionality (which is normal behavior IMO) is restored in an upcoming release.
Trying to describe this gives me a newfound appreciation for those who practice the craft of technial writing.
