Portal Page Design

How do I create portal page with frames? That is like in HTML design a static frame or banner is on the left of the screen containing links, each link loads another web deployed application in the main frame.

Can't you equate what you do with frames with setting up the regions of a portal page? We have similar layouts and we just use a combination of regions and tabbed pages to do this. Hope this helps

Create Portal Page Design with Dynamic content in Moss2007(without using Visual Studio)

Hi All,
I am facing a issue while designing a page in MOSS 2007. I can't use custom code as the client doesn't want it to be used.
The page is with dynamic content coming from sharepoint lists and picture library. I tried using SharePoint Listview after adding zones as per my page design..but was unsuccessful because I am unable to change its design and css styles in its xslt view.
Plesae help me to find any alternative so that I can easily style my page with the dynamic content. Is there any way using Content editor webparts? Can we get List data in Content editor html as this can be easily styled. I googled and tried it by using javascript
and jquery but again unsuccessful.
Please help me with some solution.
Thanks..!!

How to change one iView to another in portal page by clicking the third one

Hi all!
I have created four iViews: two speedometers with web application designer and two iViews with visual composer. I added the speedometers and a visual composer iView #1 to a portal page (default view). The requirement is that by clicking the speedometer #2, the visual composer iView #2 would replace visual composer iView #1 on the portal page. If the user then would select the speedometer #1 again by clicking it, visual composer iView #2 would replace #1 again and so on.
I have read article http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50b65a5d-f397-2910-a78a-f5544f21c33b?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true, but it is more about filtering VC iView values with BI web items. I don't need to filter anything, just to change one iView to another in a portal view by clicking a third one.
I have thought of placing two VC iView to a same portal page area and defining one of the to be visible and another hidden (by clicking speedometers these properties would change), but I haven't found the way how that could be done in portal. Is there a way to define some OnClick-method to change visibility parameters or url-address of another iView?
One solution might be¨on the other hand to transfer any value to VC by clicking a speedometer and to change the visibility of the VC iViews according to that value (the speedometer #1 should in that case transfer other value to VC than speedometer #2). I don't know if that is possible with speedometers - you can't reference any characteristics or variables with it.
If you have an idea, what would be the best way to accomplish this requirement, I would be very glad to hear about it! We are in VC 7.0.
Points garanteed!
Regards
Sari

Hi,
In the portal, create a page and place the iView having the three input fields on top. Place the second iView below. Keep differing the second iView for every page. In this way you can make the iView with 3 input fields only in the desired pages. You can use EPCF to invoke / navigate to another iView.

How to show or hide portlets dynamically on a Portal Page

Dear All
1. I have a Portal Page with One Portlet in the top having like 5 Buttons. Each button click should display a separate portlet in the bottom on this same page.
2. I have Top Portlet. For bottom I have 5 Portlets P1, P2, P3, P4 and P5. On my .portal file, I dragged and dropped top portlet and all these 5 Portlets one below each other.
3. Now, I am trying to use BackingFile approach at PageLevel/Portlet level, to get the details of button clicked in top portlet (like name etc), and then show only one portlet at a time in the bottom section (using portlet backingcontext show/hide APIs). I do need to compare the bottom portlets defintion_label etc. which is fine for now.
Is this the right approach...?
Or do I have to use Portlet Custom Event approach. So top portlet will trigger event everytime button is clicked with some payload. And bottom 5 portlets listen to that event and show/hide accordingly. But in this approach, I have to attach backingfile to all the bottom portlets to listen to them.
All the portlets are Pageflow based Portlets. Any ideas or any other simpler approaches, are highly appreciated.
Thanks
Ravi Jegga

Hi Kevin
1. Thanks a lot for the pointers. I will go with Events. So for bottom Portlets, I will use the same BackingFile. But still it is going to be custom Event. Because only one portlet will be shown. So its like my payload will be portlet def label. In Backing File, I will compare this payload with actual dynamic value and if same, show or hide that portlet. Please let me know if this is correct approach.
2. Now each one of the Bottom Portlets is a complex pageflow portlet with many buttons of their own. So everytime a button is clicked or action is invoked, the Backing File gets called. And I had to somehow know that the same portlet has to be shown or the show/hide logic should not be called. Is there any way, where backing file gets called or just listen for Events triggered only from main top portlet.
Thanks for the other message, where looks like you already gave lots of pointers. I will go through them.
I will design and test this out and will keep you posted with my results.
Thanks a lot again

How to apply different styles to Portlets on the same Portal page?

How do you apply different styles to Portlets on the same Portal page?
I'm new to this kind of thing, but understand that something called "cascading style sheets" can help here?
What are these, how do you use them, and can you make different Portlets (all types - PL/SQL, Java, Applications, etc) on the same Portal page have different styles assigned?
Thanks!

Jeff,
Apply Oracle Portal styles at the region level. Your portlets within each region will inherit the style defined for the region.
You may want to check out Report #40050 at portalcenter.oracle.com, "Design an Attractive and Compelling Portal Interface" for a good overview of the various design features of Oracle Portal.

How to adjust size of Portal Page Panels for WDA Applications

Hi,
I am designing a Portal Page using Page Layout "3 Colums (Narrow:Wide:Narrow" for WDA application. The problem is that the width of the web dynpro contents on the Left and Right panels ("Narrow" parts of the Page Layout) is not very wide, leaving lot of empty space between those panels and the Center ("Wide") panel. Is there a way that I can adjust the width of each panel in the mentioned Portal Page Layout?
I went through SAP library which mentions using method lr_port_manager->navigate_absolute but I am not clear how to pass the width value in the method. If that method is relevant, can someone give a code example (no copy/paste from SAP Library pls.) of how to put the width value (e.g., 300 in the method? Also, in which method (e.g., WDDOINIT) I should execute the code.
Will greatly appreciate the help!
Thanks,
Tony

You can easily create a custom page layout with your desired widths.

Email address on Portal page incorrectly copied into email form

I have a 'staff directory' on a Portal page that contains email addresses. Upon clicking on an email address an email form pops up. However, the email address in the TO: line sometimes reflects the email address correctly, and sometimes it repeats characters from the email address - that is, my email address might be correctly copied in as Caryn@mail or incorrectly copied in as Caryncaryn@mail.
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!!

So called e-mail obfuscation scripts may work up to a point, but client side scripts are easily defeated by turning off JavaScript. Also, e-mail links don't work for everyone. With so many people using web mail (yahoo, hotmail, g-mail, etc...) instead of e-mail software, they may not have an e-mail client on their device.
For many reasons, a contact form with a form to email processing script that has built-in spam protection is the way to go.
If your server supports PHP, this script from DBMasters is good.

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).

Publishing content from reports server to a portal page

I have a system with Forms/Reports 6i in a client/server implementation. I have 6i reports server from this on the server tier. I have added 9iAS (minimal install) to get Portal and HTTP server. I have completed the configuration and I can have the portal page submit jobs to the reports server and they are displayed properly.
But I also wish to run reports from the application. This app submits jobs to the reports server via RWCLI60. I was hoping I could use 'File' as the destype and drop off content into a directory the web server knows about and then have a portal page that will generate links to the files. These could be pdf or html output.
Can anyone tell me if this is possible and provide a short list of steps to configure it? Thanks.

there is an example of this on dev2dev, see sample code, "redirect" example

Issue in redirecting to portal page from SSO login page

HI facing issue while redirecting to portal application from SSO login page.please find below basic details
the application comprises of TAM / Apache / Weblogic, and all the request goes in the same order.
When the application is deployed as portlet, the jsp page some how hard codes the apache host name, that in turn blocks any form submit or Ajax action.
so on successful login the redirection is not happening to required portal page as it includes apache host name in the url consrtucted.
Please suggest me what are the configurations that I need to verify .
Thanks in Advance

If you upgrade to v7.1 you will have all those features and more - PLUS a lot of defective pieces have been fixed in 7.1

Portal Applications in Portal Page

In the newest version of Portal (Oracle9ias Portal Release 2) I'm having the following problem:
I have a Portal form that I created in Portal. I want to add that Portal form as a portlet in a Portal Page. I can add the Portal Form successfully into the page if I add the form as a 'Item Displayed Directly In Page Area'. However, if I chose the display as a 'Link That Displays Item In New Browser Window ' or 'Link That Displays Item In Full Browser Window', no link appears. In past versions if I selected this option a link would appear in the page that took me to the Portal Form. In this new version, the portlet is added but the link is invisible??? Is this a bug or is there something I'm missing???

Hi,
This is a bug. It has already been filed.
