Links in the content area

Hi, we have a iview that have a list of links, the iview is diplayed in a page in the content are on the right.
Some of the links are open in a new window but other we want to display it on the content area, we want that the navigation panel will be equal but the link will be in the content area.
We want that the behaviour will be like when you push a option in the detailed menu navigation.
We have updated com.sap.portal.navigation.contentarea.par component with
EPCM.subscribeEvent('urn:myOwnNameSpace','searchResult', handle_searchResult_Event);
function handle_searchResult_Event( evt ) {
self.location.href = evt.dataObject;
And from the iview:
var searchURL= "http://"location.hostname":58700""<%=url%>" QueryString;
EPCM.raiseEvent('urn:myOwnNameSpace','searchResult', searchURL );
But the behaviour is wrong the url is show in all layout including navigation, the navigation panel (detailed navigation...) have lost.
Any suggestions are welcomed.
Thanks in advanced.
Regards

Hi Nash,
It is NOT true that Related Links always open in a new window.
It is very important to know where to change the Launch in New Window property.
Let's say I have a role R1, with W1, with I1, and I1 has a related link to I2. You need to do the following:
Open W1.
Select I1 and open for editing.
Set the Display to Related Links. This screen shows the iView that is the related link (I2).
Select I2 and click Edit.
Change Launch in New Window to Display in Content Area.
For some reason, when you select an iView to be a related link, this property is changed in the related item delta link. This seems like a bug.
You cannot change the property in the original iView.
NOTE: The above is for SP13. There may be some differences between SPs, but my assumption is that they work the same.
Hope this helps.

How to display related links iview in content area?

Hi,
I have created Related links, but they are opening in a separate windows even though I have set the attribute of the iviews to "open in portal content area".
Please let me know how I can display the iviews of the Related links in the content area.
-Ashwini.

Hello Ashwini,
I don't think you have changed the property at the right place.
Open the iview for which related link is added. Now from the drop down box at the top right select Related Link. The related link editor will open which will show the related link iview. Select the iview and click the EDIT button at the bottom. The related link iview will open. Now Change the "Launch in new WIndow" property.
When you add an iview as reletd link to some other iview, a delta link is created and added to the iview.
This will solve ur problem.

URGENT : On clicking back button of IE error message in the content area

Hi all,
On clicking of a link in my navigation area KM folders are displayed in the content area via a KM iview. On 1st level navigation in this iView and clicking the explorer back button there is no problem. But if we navigate to inner folders and click on back button I get a warning in the Content Area:
" Warning: Page has Expired The page you requested was created using information you submitted in a form. This page is no longer available. As a security precaution, Internet Explorer does not automatically resubmit your information for you.
To resubmit your information and view this Web page, click the Refresh button."
This is not the case when I navigate through Bread Crumb.
The isolation method for my iView is Embedded and for my Page is also Embedded.
Please reply soon.
Thanks and Regards,
Sweta.

I am pretty sure that nothing can be done about this. A Lot of other websites/applications also have this same problem. You try playing with the browser cache settings so that the back button doesn't try and get the page from the cache. You could also try and experiment with the cache-control and expires HTTP headers, to see whether this has any effect.
Other than this, I am unsure as to whether it can be resolved
Sorry

Need to add a link to the masthead area of the Portal

Hi
I need to add a link to the masthead area of the portal. That link needs to be able to print the content of the current page.
Ihave downloaded the com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead into the NWDS.
Can anybody please let me know where exactly to modify the code.
i am guessing i may need to use window.print() to print the page.
Thanks
Sharath
Thanks
Sharath

Step 1: Adding new link in the masthead
1. Rename the par file to your own namespace and import the PAR using eclipse
2. To add your link - modify HeaderiView.jsp appropriately
3. Build the PAR and export using Eclipse
Step 2: Create an iView
1. Content Administrator -> Portal Content -> Select the folder in which you need to create the masthead iView. Right click on the selected folder and "Select New From PAR" -> iView
2. Select the PAR file name created by you in Step 1 a
3. Choose "default" in Portal Component Selection
4. Provide the properties for the iView and save
Step 3: Modify Portal Masthead
1. Add the iView created in Step 2 to the Framework Page of your application
2. Remove the existing Masthead iView from the framework page and add iView created in Step 2 in the framework page.
3. Note that the position should be the same where the previous masthead is removed.
Logoff and logon with the user who is assigned the framework page - you should be able to see the new masthead with links
Incase you are changing the default framework page and default masthead ensure that you have a backup so that you can revert.

To include a new link in the function area?

Hi all,
I need to include a new link in the function area of the masthead. Could any of you please explain me how to do this?
Also after clicking on this new link on the fucntion area of the masthead, the iview needs to be displayed in the innerpage or the content area of the portal...
thank you
regards
Luke

Hi Luke
Hi
You can modify the par file <b>com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead</b> to achieve this.
Copy the
com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead.par.bak file from
<local_drive>usrsap<instance>JC00j2eecluster server0appssap.comirjservlet_jspirj
ootWEB-INF deploymentpcd to a temporary folder.
Rename the par file to some other namespace and import the new par file into your NWDS.
you have 3 main files in the masthead namely HeaderiView.jsp, LogInRedirect.jsp, LogOffConfirmMsg.jsp.
change the corresponding jsp file to make the changes as per your requirements.Upload and deploy the par file to the Enterprise Portal.
Also go through these links.

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.

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.

How to enlarge and centralise the 'Content Area' in an Office 365 webpage

Hi, I'm relatively new to O365 and I'm working on our webpage
The issue I have is that you have the Content Area but that seems to be about 1/2 an inch in from the left hand screen and only covers approx. 75% of the screen, what I want is the content area to be about 1000pixels wide and centralised.
I've tried looking at the CSS style sheet but there doesn't seem to be anything that helps me to do either of the above tasks.
Any help would greatly be appreciated, thanks.

UI element in Webdynpro to align the content area at the center of the page

Hi Experts,
I am looking for a UI element in webdynpro which can keep the entire content area aligned to the center of the page as well as can provide the borders along the content area.
Please suggest if there exists any such UI element in webdynpro.
P.S. We are using NWDS Version: 7.01.00
Thanks in advance for the replies.
Regards,
Anurag

Hi Anurag,
What you can try is to put all of your UI elements in Group and then do the alignment. Set the visibility property of the group header to invisible. This will give you a border.
Hope this solves your problem.

In SAP EP portal,We have a requirement to display few reports wherein we have 7 roles with the same names but different ID's and they are merged together so that even if the users have 7 roles assigned he will see only 1 tab in the first level navigation and uder that there will be one folder at the second level.Now the requirement is like this
1st level navigation : Role Name
2nd level navigation :Folder Name
Detailed Navigation : Folder Name
                                 Sub Folder Name
                                 Sub -sub folder1 Name
                                 Reports   --(one or many)
                                 Sub -sub folder2 Name

Table expands outside of the content area in a tabbed panel - sometimes

I am using a tabbed panel to create several different views of a database. The system is working pretty well, the only problem I have is that the content for almost all of the tabbed panels extend beyond the right hand end of the content panel. The page is here www.mwlcraftshow.com/gordo.php and you'll see that when you select the "Declined" tab the data shows correctly within the content area, but if you select "Accepted" or "All vendors" the table extends beyond the content panel. I've reviewed the html and css and don't see any difference between the tab that works (Declined) and tabs that don't work (All vendors, Accepted).
I'd really appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction.
Thanks

I see that you are indicating td widths for your tables. If you don't try to dictate widths in tables AND reduce the size of your text, you will have better luck keeping the table on the panel. You might also consider making the live area for the TabbedPanels wider, as well (the whole widget). If you have a limited size monitor, you won't be able to do that.
The only size you should use on this table is for the table width itself: use 100%, and it will fill the TabbedPanel Content width-wise, and should force the columns to fit (if you take off their widths as I suggested above).
With tables, absolute width indicators seem only to be a "suggestion" as tables will automatically expand if the content is too much for the content cells. Applying a 100% width for the table as a whole should force the cells to expand down and not horizontally.

How to remove category header link in a content area

Hi,
I have a content area with two categories X and Y with some items in each.
When I add this content area on a page as portlet, the category heading is displayed with a hyperlink to X.
I do not want that category heading, I should only items in the content area and not the headers atleast remove hyperlinks to the category headings.
Please help.
Murthy

Hi,
you can't change it in your code. I think the only option is to create a custom skin and then replace the resource bundle. Creating a custom skin for this is more work than the effect may justify. So to hide the string you can use CSS like the following
.x2z{color:#D2D8B0}
which turns the font color into the background color

Removing the Vertical scroll bar from the content area.

Hello,
Is there a way to remove the vertical scroll bar from the content area?
I am trying to create a new light portal frame work.
Everything works fine except that I see two vertical scroll bars, one from the content area and another from the page(frame).
Thanks in advance.
-Sudheer

Hi
There are a couple of ways in which to achieve this
1) Try and make the content flat. What I mean by this is that the content area (when using the standard light framework) doesn't contain an iframe, meaning that the iview defined on the page has "EMBEDDED" isolation mode. This should mean that you only have one scrollbar (if the content extends past the size of the browser)
2) If you need to make the iview URL isolation, then try and get the domain of the content to be of a similar domain to your portal server, i.e. your portal is portal.company.com and the content is content.company.com. In this way you can make the pages expand.
NOTE: One thing to note is that when using URL isolation iviews doesn't allow the automatic expanding of the iframe content. This is because the standard javascript doesn't allow this. Therefore you may have to write your own javascript function (or content area page) to do this
I hope this helps
Darrell
