Mobility tags in WegLogic Portal 9.2

Has anyone successfully used the mobility tags <mm:layout> and <mm:group> in WebLogic Portal 9.2 in the way described, for example, on page 62 of the WebLogic Mobility Server User Guide (I'm looking at v3.5, Sept 2006)?
I am trying to user a different format for display on a mobile or PDA device in the way described, but with no success. I have successfully used the <mm:include where="IsPDA"> tag, so I know my device type is being recognised. I'm using the standard built in PDA emulator, and the Openwave v7 simulator for mobile devices.
I'm also having trouble picking up alternative images from the path specified in the skin.properties file.
Many thanks in advance for any help you may give me for these two problems.
Regards
Phil

Hi Phil,
I have been in contact with Mobility Support regarding this issue.
==============================
From their email they mention:
<mm:group> would not usually be used within portlets. Each portlet is effectively an mm:group and will be enclosed as such within the framework.
Similarly mm:layout is handled by the mobilized framework. If you do a search through the files in the framework you will find mm:layouts and mm:groups defined.
The "presentation of mobile content" functionality described in the docs is refering to standalone JSP files, and how you would mobilize them. With the framework, most of the mobilization has already been done.
Many Thanks,
Mobility Support

Mobility framework in WebLogic Portal 10.3

Hi,
In WebLogic Portal 9.2, there was a project facet called - "Mobility framework for WebLogic Portal." This is not available in WebLogic Portal 10.3. At the same time, I don't see any comment in the Release notes or the in the "What's new" section of 10.x versions.
What is the equivalent feature in 10.3?
Thanks,
Prashanth

I don't recall the product shipping a facet called Mobility Framework. This might have come from another product called WebLogic Mobility Server. I do not believe that this product exists anymore since the Oracle purchase of BEA. This product came from a partner called MobileAware and I think you can still purchase it from them if you require it.
However, you might want to read about the native capabilities in WLP for handling multiple devices. Read:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13155_01/wlp/docs103/portals/multichannel.html to see if this is sufficient for your requirements.

Mobile Synchronization for Enterprise Portal

Hello,
I ve to implement Mobile Synchronization for Enterprise Portal of my Organization .How do i go about doing this . I am very new to sap Netweaver Platform . please guide me with ur views , important links & documents .
(Generous Points Will Be Awarded )
Thanking you,
Theja Anand

Hi Theja,
there is no standard functionality for synchronizing content from the portal to a mobile device... as far as I know.
What kind of content do you need an the mobile devices?
"Synching" SAP transactions can be achieved with SAP Mobile Infrastructure, but you have to develop the needed applications especially for the mobile plattform and those apps are not integrated in the portal...

Can't create new Mobile App on preview portal

Hi all,
I'm really excited about the new Mobile App feature in the preview portal and want to get started on something. I went to the portal, clicked in to create a new Mobile App and entered the name and service plan then clicked create. The dots started blinking
and then nothing happened. I've tried it in Safari, Chrome, and IE with the same results. I've tried it with private and non-private browsing. My account is a Partner subscription that allows $100/month in Azure credits. Has anyone else had this problem? Any
idea how to mitigate it and get to coding my new mobile app? Thanks for any help!
jared

The restriction has been removed. You should be able to use any valid name for your resource group now.
I was unable to create a mobile app using the defaults. I had to create a new service plan and Resource group.
Also, the docs on resource groups give me a 404. I have no idea what a resource group or service plan even are.

Writing HTML tags in Abstract Portal Component?

Hi,
I am trying to write some HTML tags in an Abstract Portal Component and I am facing problem to write "/"
Pls. let me know if there is any escape character or any other way of printing a "/" in a tag like as follows....
response.write("</td>")
<b>New Addition:</b>
SORRY ... WE CAN Write </td> without any problem ..
Due to some error on the top of the program this is wrongly shown...
Thanks

Hi Nari,
Follow the below steps:
1. Store your properties files (test.properties, test_en.properties, test_xx.properties where xx is the locale ) in the folder PORTAL-INF ->Private ->classes
2. In portalapp.xml for component-config, add this
<property name="ResourceBundleName" value="test"/>
3. In your abstract portal component you can use the below code to fetch the value for the key "SERVER_NAME".
    public void doContent(IPortalComponentRequest request, IPortalComponentResponse response)
         ResourceBundle resourceBundle = request.getResourceBundle();
         if(resourceBundle!=null)
              response.write(resourceBundle.getString("SERVER_NAME"));
         else
              response.write("Error");
Let me know if you still face any issue.
Thanks

Mobile device support in Portal Platform 7

hi,
I have downloaded the evaluation copy of Weblogic Portal 7. Having experienced
a number of Portal Server products I have found it very easy to get started with,
infact almost to easy. The pain of working with app servers for a number of years
is that you start to believe something has to be hard and painful to get going
if it is to be for an enterprise implementation...
My question is:
What inbuilt (native) support is there in Weblogic Portal 7 for multi device (specifically
mobile)? I can't find any and the documentation does not show any sign of it.
It seems strange to me that such a new product (version) does not have mobile
support, so I'm hoping it's in there somewhere.
Thanks,
John

I have same question,
anyone can answer us?

How to print between head-Tags of a Portal component

Hello,
is it possible to print between the -Tags of the generated HTML-Code? I need to insert a JAVAScript between the tags.
Currently i am simply using the Writer-Object in the doContent() to print out the HTML-Code. But i found nothing how to access the head?
With best regards
Edited by: Björn Karpenstein on Aug 19, 2008 9:12 AM

Hi,
One way of doing this is by creating a new Servlet Responce in doContent method. This way you can set the head tag by yourself.
Here is the code:
// get the reference to the ServletResponse (exclusivly) and set the content type to HTML
ServletResponse sResponse = portalComponentRequest.getServletResponse(true);
sResponse.setContentType("text/html");
// get the reference to the PrintWriter
PrintWriter writer = sResponse.getWriter();
// write the HTML header
writer.write("<html><head></head><body>\n");
Check if this suites your requirement, if not let me know.

Praveen Gudapati

Access to the head tag in a portal generated page

We have a situation where we need to put some javascript in the <head> tag of a page so that it can be accessed by a javascript portlet. Any ideas?
-Rob

This capability is not there in 3.0.6 and 3.0.7. In 3.0.8 (due out end of this month), we have added a template capability which allows you to assign an html template to a page. The template could contain the javascript.
In the interim, others have created an html portlet that contains the javascript, placed it on the page and turned it off by default. This works, but any user with customization rights to the page could remove it, so the title should read something like 'Do Not Remove!'

Include lang attribute in html tag of all portal pages

Hi, anyone knows how is possible to include the lang in the portal pages?
Now all pages begin with <html> but I need <html lang="es">.
Where can I update that?
I mean that is done by some portal service or perhaps with a file.
all suggestions are welcomed.
Thanks in advanced.
Regards.

The Javascript source URI has the value "RES_NOT_FOUND".
If I try to access it using ".../faces/javax.faces.resource/javascript.js?ln=js" I get a blank page (contains a Html and Body only).
If I try to access it using ".../faces/resources/js/javascript.js" I can download the javascript file from the taglib.
If I manually copy the javascript.js file from the taglib into the enclosing project and save it in "resource/js", then the javascript source URI is resolved correctly to ".../faces/javax.faces.resource/javascript.js?ln=js" and I can downloaded it, but then it is the local copy and not the one from the taglib jar.
Do I need some specific configuration in web.xml or other deployment descriptors, to be able to use "javax.faces.resource"?
The only configurations whoch smells like "javax.faces.resource" is this context param: javax.faces.FACELETS_RESOURCE_RESOLVER=oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.facelets.rich.AdfFaceletsResourceResolver
In web.xml various "resource" servlets is defined (I'm not sure whether I need them, JDeveloper has created them automatically):
a) resources = org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.webapp.ResourceServlet, maps to: /adf/*, /afr/*, /bi/*
b) adflibResources = oracle.adf.library.webapp.ResourceServlet, maps to: /adflib/*
I appreciate your help.

How are the subst data tags used in Portal Server

I noticed this tags in the authentication pages, where are they stored? How do I modify their value? How are they used? A reference to the admin or programers guide is plenty I just couldn't find one.
Thanks!

They are defined in the auth module properties files (however I don't think any are defined in the product as it ships). The tags are of the form:
<subst data="key">othervalue</subst>
If the key is defined, the value of the key is substituted for othervalue, otherwise it is left untouched.

Portal Mobile Phone Access

hi,
i must admit to not knowing a great deal about mobile phone access to portal so i have a few questions.
the portal mobile pack offering basically gives you the capability of presenting portal pages to mobile phones.
the question i have is regarding the communications from the mobile phone to portal's content.
i.e. does the phone have to have internet access and basically accesses the portal over the internet via the mobile phone providers communications ?
or does a wap gateway product need to be installed in front of the portal too.
i thought nowdays most mobiles had internet access so comms occurs to the portal in the same way it would via a web browser - i.e. as long as your portal is publicly accessible via the internet and configured with the mobile pack, then mobile phones can access it.
is this correct or am i missing a piece of the puzzle?
thanks
im in australia btw tho answers from other locations are still of interest :)

Portal with Mobile Access allows portlets and channels which can output AML (either using OOTB portlets/channels or using Mobile Builder development tool), to be rendered on the desktop or most all mobile devices.
The mobile device, e.g., a mobile phone, must have internet service which most do today. The wireless carrier provides the WAP gateway to allow the device access to the internet. The purposes of mobile access are many including transforming the data for correct display, human interface improvments to ease use of data on smaller displays, single sign on to multiple portlet applications, cache streaming of the data to 'connection limited devices', etc.
Portal 6.3 comes with MA already installed. A neat quick test is to install 6.3, then using a mobile phone or downloading an emulator to your desktop, point at your new portal and see how display renders.

How to specify HTML meta tags?

I'm trying to get a portal to always have the following an HTML meta tag in the head of the generated HTML:
<meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOFOLLOW" />
I haven't seen any documentation about doing this in particular, but looking at some of the XML schema (*.xsd) files in various weblogic-specific jars, it seems like maybe the following would work in the <netuix:head> tag of the .portal configuration file for the portal:
<netuix:head>
<netuix:meta name="ROBOTS" content="NOFOLLOW" />
</netuix:head>
However, this does not seem to work.
Also, I've checked the skin.properties file to see if there are any comments about how to specify meta tags, but there aren't any.

Turns out there are a number of ways to do this. A BEA consultant recommended modifying the "head.jsp" for the portal's skin.
Alternatively, it dawned on me that all I had to do was put the meta tags in a jsp and use that jsp in the head area of the .portal file. For example:
<netuix:head>
<netuix:jspContent contentUri="/resources/jsp/customHead.jsp"/>
</netuix:head>

Authentication using Mobile Service

Thank you in advance!!

Thanks Yannick for quick response, so on this my next doubt is can we create
1. Standard JSR 286 Portlet
2. PDK-Java Portlet
via Jdeveloper, and it may render inline without iFrame? Should I give a try on this.
Thanks
