Link to iview or page in content area

hello,
can i have links to iviews or pages in the content area? if yes, how do i do that?
thx
irina
points will be given for any answer that helps

Hi Galan,
One way that you can link to an iview is by using what's called a Quick Link. Open up the properties to the iview that you want to link to, give a name to your iview in the 'Quick Link' field, and then save your changes. Then, use a url like this to access your quick link:
https://portal.mydomain.com/irj/portal/MyQuickLink
For example, if we named our Quick Link 'MyApplication', our url would look like this:
https://portal.mydomain.com/irj/portal/MyApplication
Give it a try. I hope this helps!

Iview calls new Page on Content Area

Hello Everybody,
I have a Page with 3 Iviews on it, and would like that an Iview call a new Page.
Wich means, I have Iview 1,2,3 on Page A and if you trigger a link on of these Iviews a new Page B should be loaded.
All I got is that the Page loaded in the Iview itself. Is there an opportunity to change that behavior, to call a Page B from an Iview that reloads the content area with a Page B?
Thanks in advanced,
Marcus

Hi Marcus,
you can call EPCM.doNavigate with the PCD target, see https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/enterprise portal client.pdf
Hope it helps,

Open KM Link(to KM Resource) in portal content area

Hello,
Open KM Link (not external link) created in KM to html/htm page located in KMcontent in Portal content area.
Is there any way can I open KM link created in same window (Portal content area) not in new window? By default it always opens in new window? From these links I created KM Navigation iView layoutset as LinkList explorer.
Thanks

Hi Mark,
As mentioned by VS..look into the iview property and then checkout the "Launch In" or "Display State" (sry cannot remember by hard) and set it according to what VS indicated above. This way, when you click on the iview from your Portal (not preview), it will display in the content area.
Additional info on iview properities.

Diff between regular portal page and content area page?

Hi.
I have a content area page. Because I thought it would be nice to have "Edit Page" link on the page, I created a new portal page (yes, a portal page vs. a content area page).
I created 2 regions.
Region 1, portlet nav bar portlet from my content area.
Region 2, root folder from my content area
When I use the page, clicking on anything in the nav bar portlet takes me to a new page (my content area page), instead of updating the folder portlet on my new portal page.
Is this by design?
What the difference between a portal page and a content area folder?
Thanks a bunch!
Phillip

Phillip,
The two are indeed subtly different. The experts are on the content area forum but basically a content area page is designed to automatically provide easy navigation within a content area. This includes automatically "doing the right thing" for the navbar portlets.
Note the links on the navbar portlet and their respective targets. They always target the content area page so that the navigation in a content area is seamless (i.e. the middle region updates w/ the current folder).

No "presence" Attribute for Master Pages or Content Areas?

Is it true that there isn't a .presence attribute for master pages and content areas? I have a form with multiple master pages, and based on certain criteria, I'd like to not display the master page.
This master page has 1 content areas. One is a header area. The rest of the page is content area 2. It is blank. I have a conditional breakpoint that sends line items from a table to content area 2 if I have more than 7 line items.
If I have 7 or fewer line items, I'd like to hide this master page, but LiveCycle doesn't seem to think you should ever hide an entire master page. If I could hide the top content area, then at least the page would print blank.
I can't wrap content areas in subforms. If I could do that, then I could hide the subform.
Thanks!!

My problem is I have page 1 with fields in the header, then there are line items attached to a database table. There could be 1 line item or 200. I can print up to 7 line items on the first page and then a footer must appear on just page 1.
If there are more than 7 line items, I continue to another page. I have to have a bunch of header fields at the top of this continuation page. The line items continue under this. If another continuation page is needed, then the header info appears at the top and then the line items continue. This goes on until all line items are displayed.
I have to use a conditional breakpoint in this line item table so I can tell it to go to a content area under the header on the continuation page. I can't have the line items continue at the top of a page because I need that header.
I define the content area under the content area for the header on the continuation page. I have only been able to define content areas on master pages.
I have more than 1 master page. Page 1 and the final page are on 1 master page and they must always print. The line item continuation page is another master page with 2 content areas (header and line item continuation).
If I have 7 or fewer line items, the continuation page is not needed. I need to be able to hide or display this page dynamically based on the number of line items from the database.
I can show some examples when I get back to work.
Thanks!

Change text "link" color only in Spry Tab content area

I need to have multiple text link colors in my site for light
and dark background colors. The only regions in my site that have a
white background are in the Spry Tab Panel content area. I can't
figure out how to change the text color for text links in the spry
content only. I tried to add a:link ..etc... to the style sheet,
but it did not effect anything
(I also need to clean my style sheet (s). But that comes
next.

When ever link any link on a web page many popups are opening. I don't get popups or adds when I use chrome or IE. Really frustrated with Firefox.

Fire fox current version very frustrating and allows losts of ads and popups. When ever I click on any link from a web page ( any web page) i get a pop ups from ads like jabong, etc. I use the url of the same web page in chrome or IE I do not get such popups. It also crashes often.
The only way to get rid of this is to get use to Chrome or some other browser.

vksh89, What Extensions do you have installed as there are a few that can insert ad links on pages for example.
Also if Firefox is your default browser something on computer may be targeting it.

Link to Content Area from ASP page brings up default page

I have a link on an ASP to the content area. When the user clicks on the link, he/she is required by the portal to provide their username/password. After entering the correct information, the users are displayed their default page NOT taken to the content area.
Any ideas?

Unfortunately, the only way to do this would be to not show the sub-folder region and add URL items in another region that link to the folder page in question.

Unable to click on iView link from within content area

Hi,
I have a peculiar problem where I am unable to click on/open up iViews from within the content area in one particular folder of a role. If I expand the tray and click on an iView link, it opens up the said iView. I am able to click on/open up iViews from the content area in other folders in the role.
Has anyone else experienced the same issue? If yes, any pointers to resolve this would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Tahzeeb

Hi Tahzeeb,
Are you facing this problem only for a particular folder of a iview or else for the whole??
If yes, just check the below points
1. Make sure that you have the correct roles to read Portal content.
2. Check whether have you made any permission access for the folder you are trying to access.
3. Try to create a new folder and assign the same iview and check it up once.
Let us konw further, if you still face any problems.

Can't be done. This is an enhancement we're looking at in a
future release.

Rate it Link for items in a content Area

Hi,
How do I add a rate it link for all items in a content area and track the rating for items by all the users. This is urgent and any help is appreciated
Thanks
Makario

You need to create a custom item type, with a procedure that displays a link to do the rating.
For an example of a custom item type procedure, see Re: personal oracle 9i
Note that the primary key for an item is (masterid, id, caid, language).

Page Background Lost on Regions above Content Area for Some Pages

Hi - I am a iWeb novice, but not a total rookie on this kind of software...
I have a simple iWeb project that applies a gradient fill to the page background, and applies one of the gradient colors to the Browser background on every web page. I am using the "White" theme, and I have trouble with the "Photos" page template drawing Page backgrounds correctly. I have my content area set wider than the default to 1008 pixels to fill a 1024-wide display. I set my display area to 877 pixels high to coincide with the largest media dimension that I see with the inspector.
I looked here for previous discussions on this and failed to find anything. Maybe I missed a post...
Initially, most web pages load and display correctly the first time. One Photos web page, however, displays the Browser background - not the Page background above the centerline of the page name.
On several pages with a "Photos" template (but not all), the initial page is displayed correctly. But, when I click on a photo thumbnail and the page is revised to display the larger photo image in the content area, the Browser background is displayed in error above the content area, and the Page background displays correctly below the top of the content area.
I have looked for some consistent issue or characteristic that might let me predict when this problem occurs, but it ll looks rather random. It is repeatable, though - clearing caches and reloading the same page exposes the problem the same way a second time for the same page, in other words...
Is this a bug, or something subtle in placement or overlap of areas on the page that I haven't noticed? Anything to be careful with to avoid this problem?
Thanks anyone for any advice!

Hi Cyclosaurus and Apnewbie -
Thank you for your interest and replies. Here is a simple page that illustrates the problem I am having with a Page Background Gradient Fill on top of a Browser Background Solid Fill
http://web.mac.com/bccrowe/Troubleshooting/KyliesArt2.html
Here, I intend the page from the very top to the bottom of the defined content area to transition from pink to white as the eye moves left to right. The browser background is also pink to add some depth to the image - that's what you will see when the page loads.
Click on the child's drawing to present the image, and you should see the gradient disappear above the centerline of the second text box (above the comment area) when the page finished loading with the large drawing.
The Content area coincides precisely with the bottom of that second text box. I have tried to move the content area further below the text boxes so that they are not imtimate - no difference. I haven't tried to separate the text boxes, yet.
The two text boxes immediately above the content area are 45px x 630 px (18 pt text) and 30 px x 630 px (14 pt text) - they overlap by about 10 pix.
The content area that displays the thumbnail is 1008 px x 445 px (I thought that I set that at 877px...). I can try to set the content area to 877 px... Maybe this is the problem - maybe the Page Background shifts down to coincide with the bottom of the next page#2... Hmmm...
When you click on the thumbnail, the page#2 content area is 1008 px x 877 px.
In iWeb, this all looks the way I want it to.
Please diddle with the page, and ask me any new questions! I appreciate your insight and help. In reality, Kylie won't notice the background change, but my next objective is a corporate site - this child's site is my "training" site. iWeb is really pretty flexible and easy to use. If I there's a work-around or something to avoid, I can live with iWeb just fine.
Thanks again -
Brian

SRM iViews open in New Window instead of Portal Content Area

Hi folks,
We are implementing SRM 7.0 business package on our Enterprise Portal 7. By default, all the SRM iViews open in a New Window. But, when I change the iViews to open in the Content Area, only the first iView that I try to open will open in the Content Area. All the remaining ones start opening in a new window with header. When reached out to SAP, they told me to disable the Work Proctect Mode. I tried that as well and still no luck. Please let me know if you guys have any idea how to make all the iViews open in the Content Area invariably. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Have you solved this issue?
