Portlet that displays links inside it

I need a portlet that displays the links inside the portlet without opening a new window.
Thanks

Hi there,
We've been playing around with something like this. We wanted to create an application which acted as an autonomous entity within a portal page. We finally managed to do this with a combination of the parameters passing example and use of session variables (wwpre_api). The thing here is that any session variables must be referenced with the portlet reference and a portlet's show method must always pre-check for the current state.
The main thing to watch out for is that you want any portlets shown on a particular page to retain state while you are "working" in another portlet, hence the session variables.
This is now growing into an application framework which allows screen changes (i.e. edit to list and back) to occur from links within the portlet, without jumping to a new page. We are considering to eventually release this when we cleaned things up a bit.

Is there any list for out of the box portlets that come with portal installation.

Is there any list for out of the box portlets that come with portal installation?

Yes - it's in the online help, on the Learning About Your Portal : About Portlets page. Here is the content:
Portlets Created Upon Install
The following portlets (and their necessary portlet Web services and Remote Servers) are created when you install the portal:
Folder Expertise:This portlet displays the list of folders for which the user is an expert. It is added to the User Profile page by default.
General Information:This portlet displays the default Profile Page. It is added to the User Profile page default.
Managed Communities:This portlet displays the list of communities managed by the user. It is added to the User Profile page by default.
Portal Login:This portlet allows users to log in to the portal. You probably want to add this to the guest user's home page so that users can log in from the default page displayed when they navigate to your portal.
Portal Search:This portlet allows users to search your portal and access their saved searches. Users might want to add this to their home page for easy access to their saved searches.
The following portlet templates (and any necessary portlet web Services and Remote Servers) are created when you install the portal:
Community Links:This template is used by the portal to create portlets that display the links saved in a Community Knowledge Directory folder. To learn more about Community Links Portlets, see Community Links Portlets.
Content Snapshot:This template is used by the portal to create portlets that display the results of a Snapshot Query.
You can also install the following functionality as part of the Optional Enterprise Web Components:
[url[/url]Stored Content:This portlet template allows you to create portlets that display stored content that is periodically refreshed. You might use this type of portlet to display content that is resource-intensive or takes a long time to generate. To learn more about Stored Content portlets, see Stored Content Portlets.
[url[/url]XML Source:This portlet template allows you to create portlets that can collect XML content from an external source and display it in the portal as HTML. To learn more about XML Source portlets, see XML Source Portlets.

Broken Links inside FLash

I notived that the links inside my flash header do not work
on this page as well as other pages inside this directory. The
links do work in the root directory. Does someone know how to fix
this problem I am having? Here is the link:
http://www.school-psychologist.com/nick/worshipping/creative.html
The action script URL setting is index.html, about.html, etc.
For some reason when you click the following link, the flash header
sends the user to
http://www.school-psychologist.com/nick/worshipping/index.html
instead of
http://www.school-psychologist.com/nick/index.html
Thanks a bunch!!

impossible to say other then your code is wrong - always
always always copy/paste the code in
question or we have nothing to go by - but flash simply does
not replace urls with other urls - you
must have the wrong code on the wrong button and missed
something simple.

Portlet Item Attr: "Link That Displays Item in New Browser Window"

I have been searching the forums for a similar experience, but haven't found anything quite like this:
I have a couple of portlets. One is a Discoverer Portlet, the other is something more basic: The "Developer News" portlet from the 9iAS Community portlet provider.
After defining the portlets and looking at them, I edit the page and click the Edit button (little pencil) to edit the attributes.
There are radio buttons for Display Options.
One option is: "Link that Displays Item in New Browser Window."
When I select this, OK, and then go back to the page, **the portlet doesn't show at all any more! There is no link, no nothing. Note that I have defined a Display Name, which should be the text for the link.
It would seem that this feature flat out doesn't work.
This technique for a popup works fine for an "Item" defined in an item region.
Anyone?

Yes -- I did do that after reading an article on metalink about such issues.
This actually changes the problem.
When I add the "Display name and image link" attribute to the region, I now do get a link.
However, clicking it brings up an undefined Discoverer portlet.
It works great for non-Disco portlets. For instance, I was able to pop up the "Developer News" portlet from the Oracle 9iAS Community portlet provider.
I think the problem is that the link that Disco produces does not provide enough information to bring up the particular portlet. For instance, the URL does not have the workbook name, the worksheet name, the parameter values, etc.
If anyone uses Disco w/ the portal, I would be curious to hear if anyone can reproduce this apparent bug / limitation.

Rendering external links inside a java portlet

Hi,
I have a Java portlet written which displays a page including some links that are pointing to an external page. When clicking on that link the portal environment is left, that's not what I want. I want to render the content of this link inside the portlet.
Is there any way to do that in a Java portlet? Like a method that rewrites all URLs inside a HTML page so that when clicked they will be rendered again in the portlet and again all the URLs inside this page are rewritten?
Thanks for any help.
Erik

Hi Erik,
You can use methods in PortletRendererUtil to construct links to your resources so that you are within the Portal context.
Another workaround to this would be to have a controller jsp for the show mode. Put this as the resource in the <showPage>....</showPage> tag in the provider.xml
Now this JSP will forward the request to the appropriate JSP (or any other resource) based on an action.
So in all the jsps, let the form be submitted to the controller jsp, which reads the action from request & forwards it to the right jsp. e.g. in your scenario,
the main JSP (that contains links etc) will contain a form element which will have the following signature.
String portletActionLink = HttpPortletRendererUtil.htmlFormActionLink(request, HttpPortletRendererUtil.PAGE_LINK);
<form name="formName" method="POST" action="<%= portletActionLink %>" >
<%= HttpPortletRendererUtil.htmlFormHiddenFields(request, HttpPortletRendererUtil.PAGE_LINK) %>
<input type="hidden" name="ClickedAction" value="">
</form>
When any link inside the form is clicked, the "ClickedAction" hidden element will be set to the right action inside a javascript & the form will be submitted to the controller jsp (as we are still in the "Show mode")
The controller jsp will contain the following extract,
String action = prr.getParameter("ClickedAction");
if ( action.equals("externalPage1") )
//have a runtime include for ExternalPage1 jsp
You can thus extend the controller based on number of actions you have.
In this approach, all requests are routed through the show mode controller jsp. However, through other methods in the PortletRendererUtil class, you can rewrite a direct URL to that JSP.

How to change the color of the links inside a portlet ?

Hi,
I have to apply a css into one of the portlets of my page. Since I thought it would not be easy I figured out that the only thing the client cares is the color of the links inside the portlet. The portlet has a bunch of links and these link should be blue and 12pt. Does somebody know how to do that ?
Thanks,
Rafael.

Change hyperlink color:
There are about 50 predefined styles with each template. They are modifiable. Hyperlink is one of the styles.
Follow this process:
• In your document select a word of text, any word will do.
• Style it the way you want your hyperlinks to look.
• Show Styles Drawer from the View menu.
• Find the Hyperlink style in the drawer and right-click on it.
• Select - Redefine Style from Selection - in the pop-up menu.
That's it. You've changed the hyperlink style for this book.

Links inside a portlet

Hi Caroline
You should install and use the "Url Services". I have the same need. But I can't succesffuly install the URLServices, I then get a lot of timeout errors when browsing the portal. I don't know when I'll have time to work on that, but that's the way you should work around.

"Link That Displays Item In Folder Area " option for a Text Item not there in 9.0.2

Hi,
In the previous version of Portal when you created a content area item of type text. there were four display options
1) Item Displayed Directly In Folder Area
2) Link That Displays Item In Folder Area (i.e on a page for a folder)
3) Link That Displays Item In Full Browser Window
4) Link That Displays Item In New Browser Window.
In release2 of protal the option number 2) is removed.
We were using option 2 as we added different portlets and style sheets on content area page because of which we were able to get the desired page.
Now in the new release this option is not there.
Any pointers to the issue.
or Is there a default style and page design which is used while opening the details of the text and whether that default can be modified or not?
Regards
Kapil

Hi,
Please post this question in the content areas discussion folder.

Popup link inside a r portlet - 'calendar'

Hi All,
I'm trying to pop up a link that I've define inside a caledar portlet, but the link opens up on the entire window instead of just inside the portlet itself. I've set my "TARGET" to null and do not know what the "TARGET" value should be. Within my page, I have several portlets. One of which is a calendar portlets with links. Those links will replace the entire page once they're clicked, rather then just open up within the calendar portlet. Do anyone know?
Thanks in Advance,
Vie

How do I pop up a small message window on top of my portal page?
. My portal page contains only a html portlet and I do not want to use the 'onLoad='. Is there something I could do in my pl/sql?
right now I have,
IF condition = 'N' THEN
url := PORTAL30.wwv_user_utilities.get_url('ABC.LINK_TO_PAGE');
portal30.wwv_redirect.url(p_url => url);
ELSE
null;
end;
I tried to sneak in
PORTAL30.wwv_javascript.open_script;
htp.p('window.open(''http://xyz/pls/portal30/url/page/popup'',''Title'',''width=300 height=400'');');
PORTAL30.wwv_javascript.close_script;
into my if statement, but this doesn't work.
Any help appreciated. -------------------------------------
just making it clearer:
my if statement looks like:
IF condition = 'N' THENPORTAL30.wwv_javascript.open_script;
htp.p('window.open(''http://xyz/pls/portal30/url/page/popup'',''Title'',''width=300 height=400'');'); -- this is my popup window
url := PORTAL30.wwv_user_utilities.get_url('ABC.LINK_TO_PAGE');
portal30.wwv_redirect.url(p_url => url); -- this will take me to my portal page
ELSE
null;
end;

IFrames keeping the links inside the portlet frame

Hi All,
I have installed the iFrame portlet, and tested with the technet.oracle.com portlet. Why do the links on this portlet open up in the whole window rather than stay within the boundaries of the portlet? Isn't that the point of iFrame? I tried to add in
<convertTarget>false</convertTarget>
and
<inlineRendering>true</inlineRendering>
to the provider.xml, but I got errors each time saying there is no set or add method for them in
Class oracle.portal.provider.v1.RenderManager
is there any way I can keep the links inside the frame, or do I have to create a html portlet and manually put in an iframe tag?
Thanks, Sarah

It simply does not work! We have tried using iFrames and URLservices with inline rendering and the links always open in the same browser window but outside the portlet. This is getting very frustrating as every post we read has a different solution but none work.
And yes we have specified inlineRendering and convertTarget in the provider and yes the samples work but they don't open in the portlet. According to 2 threads in the forums, it should work now but it does not.

When I open a second tab in Firefox, it does not go to my home page. Instead it goes to a page that displays what looks like a collection of pages (or links) that I have visited in the recent or distant past. I would much rather have it go to my home page which is much more useful to me. I have tried to change this in 'Options' but with no luck. Please fix this.

Rollover Link that displays a message, is there a way to do that in Acrobat?

Hello,
Is there a way to create rollover links that display a pop message in the PDF itself? I do not want a separate browser window to pop up, or a link to another PDF page, I just want a bubble, box, or an image to pop up when you rollover a word in the PDF itself.
Thanks,
MG

Post your question in the forum for Adobe Acrobat.

Is there a URL portlet that will display a site in a sub frame (iFrame) ?

Applogies in advance if the terminology is wrong or I am in the wrong forum.
Basically I want to set up a portlet on a page that will display the contents of another web site. So you define a URL and the website that you pointed at is displayed in a sub frame (iFrame) on a page in out web site.
I know this has been done as I have seen it on oracles test portal site. Is this a standard function in portal or do I have to create a specific provider/portlet using the PDK.
Any advise will be appreciated.

Hi Dave,
I have done something similar, I think that you have to create an HTML Portlet that contains the IFRAME.
then you can set [IFRAME_name].location from Javascript.

Link That Displays Item In New Browser Window

Hi,
We use Oracle Portal Version: 10.1.4.0.0 (Build: 594).
We've found that the following setting doesn't seem to work.
Link That Displays Item In New Browser Window
Even with that set on items, items ALWAYS open up in the same window,..not a new one.
Has anyone else experienced this or is it just us?
thanks

Hi, this is a "bug". You need patch 5026969 to solve it.
More info is in note 358722.1 - Items Are Opened In The Same Browser Window Even Though The Option 'Link That Displays Item In New Browser Window' Is Set.
