Support for WAI - Web Accessibility Initiative

I'm answering an RFQ with a requirement about WAI. My questions are:
a) Is any particular support for WAI planned?
b) Would it be OK to say that Portal supports building Web sites in accordance with the WAI guidelines?
Thanks,
Erik Hagen

G'day Matt,
Thanks for bringing up this very important point!
As far as I can tell this type of support is very limited. The HTML generated
by Portal is not great (just try running HTML Tidy over one of these pages:-).
The big bugger is not being able to set the "summary" attribute for tables and
well Portal uses a lot of tables (page regions, portlets, folder regions).
Ideally I would like to be able set this for portlets via the "edit defaults" link
during page creation. This requires the various portlet authors to help us out
a bit. Getting the authors of the "Folder" and "Navigation Bar" portlets to do
this would be a priority for me. They would also need to provide support for
any internal tables that get generated e.g. folder regions. This is probably
non-trivial---just think of all the tables that pop up when you click on the
"edit folder" link:-)
We would also need a fix for page regions which is probably the responsibilty
of a completly different set of authors.
This all looks like a lot of work so I'm not holding my breath for a quick patch.
Hopefully these issues will be addressed before Portal 3.1 comes out.
Ciao!
Kal.

  • Is there a Firefox plug-in for Outlook Web Access?

    I want to access all of Outlook's functions but can't through Firefox, only through Explorer.
    In Outlook Web Access through Firefox, I don't have access to menu options for italics, bold, underlining, etc., and I can't view the list of emails on one side while viewing the email content of one email on the other side. The place to access folders like the sent box is different, too, through Firefox. It's a very downgraded version of Outlook Web Access. How can I get the better version of Outlook Web Access while still keeping Firefox as my browser? Is there a plug-in? If not, can Firefox fix this issue with its browser?

    Firefox 3.03 - why such an old version? 3.6.12 is the most recent release.
    It is up to Microsoft to fix Outlook Web Access to work with Firefox or to come up with a plugin for Firefox. If Mozilla was to start fixing or write plugins for all the software out there that is made to work with Internet Explorer and not any other browser, they wouldn't have time to work on Firefox.
    There are two Firefox extensions that will open IE in a Firefox tab. Many users install one of these addons to get around problems like you are having with Outlook Web Access.

    Web access to my corporate email via browser: "Microsoft Outlook WebAccess". Able to choose file(s) for attachment, selection appears to work (displays file name) but attachment is not made; it doesn't show up on the message either for the recipient or on the message in my 'sent mail' folder.
    Worked prior to Snow Leopard install. Fails consitently now. Logged a ticket with Apple.
    Anyone else? Ideas?

    I have users on MS-OWA who have lost the reply and forward facilities with Safari. They get a new mail blank form (ie with no content) when hey attempt these commands. Firefox works...
    Will try my 10.6.7 to see if there is a fix with the Safari upgrade

  • Question about "Get Web Drawing URL and Page Name From" for Visio Web Access

    I am trying to get both the web drawing URL and the page name from a list through Share Point Designer 2013, but it doesn´t work.
    It looks fine when a do the web part connection wizard. I select from which columns to get the URL and the page name. But on the final web part page nothing happens. It just shows the URL that is selected in the Visio Web Access Web part. I had hoped that
    that value should be overrided by the SPD-settings.
    I have googled for hours..

    Hello,
    I have now saved the Visio-file in .vdw-format, but it says Visio 2010 Web Drawing (*.vdw). Is there a .vdw-format for 2013? Isn´t that the .vsdx-format?
    Still doesn´t work with the .vdw-format, but maybe I am doing something wrong.
    Any ideas?

  • Are ERP Sales Orders supported for B2C Web Channel Scenario in CRM 7.0?

    Hi Experts,
    We are on CRM 7.0 with ECC 6.0 as backend system.
    I just want to know whether the third party tax system (Vertex or Taxware) is mandatory for B2C WEB Channel implementation??
    Without using a third party tax system, how can we configure tax for B2C web orders?
    We have ERP sales order concept in 7.0. Will it support B2C scenario???
    Regards,
    vasu

    Hi Ram,
    -- Tax is configured in ECC using conditioni technique. They are not using any third party taxware/vertex system for this.
    -- R/3 pricing procedure is intended to use for B2C transactions in Web channel and the pricing procedure refers to tax calculations. Even in B2c also they want to continue with the ECC pricing procedure.
    -- The Requirement is to have pricing along with taxes and freight in the webshop, so that the consumers can pay the total amount using credit card as it is only the payment method available in the b2c Shop.
    in the document "CAUSTAX_4.0" it was mentioned that use of third party system is mandatory for B2C scenarios. The relevant text is copied below.
    As of CRM 3.1 and above, SAP provides a solution allowing you to use SAPu2019s jurisdictional tax method to calculate taxes.
    Note: The use of external tax systems remains obligatory for B2C scenarios. However, if you are calculating tax in other scenarios and do not use external tax systems, this solution is applicable.
    The solution consists of customizing changes in both R/3 and CRM. Even though you must make some changes in R/3, the basic process of calculating jurisdictional taxes remains the same. In CRM, the Transaction Tax Engine (TTE) calculates tax and you must configure it for the jurisdictional tax method.
    My question is can we configure taxes in B2c shop using ECC pricing procedure? If yes, please provide the high level process steps.
    thanks in advance

  • Require Browser Plugin with XFA Support for Government Web Sites

    Most of the government sites I need to use on a regular basis now publish all of their forms in PDF with XFA, a popular one this time of year is income tax forms.  This is reasonable as there is no generally available alternative file format for this purpose.  However Adobe no longer supplies an Acrobat browser plugin for Firefox or Chrome on Linux.  I therefore cannot access these electronic forms.  I have tried using the no longer supported Acrobat 9.5 plug in, but it is broken under the latest version of Firefox (print doesn't work).  There is no other plugin that I can find that supports PDF forms using XFA.  How can I regain access to these forms.  When I try all I get is a message telling me to install the (non-existent) Adobe Acrobat plugin.

    I was only using income tax filing as an example of this type of application.  For the sake of my privacy I would rather not specify exactly what government I am dealing with or what the purpose of the form is.  Suffice it to say that in this particular case the ONLY way to submit this form is through the paper form, and the only ways I can get a copy of the paper form are either to phone the office and have them mail me a blank form, or access the PDF file, which I cannot do because Adobe refuses to deliver a working browser plugin!  As explained in another reply the government web site does not present me with the URL of the actual PDF file, but rather with the URL of a server application that checks the capabilities of my PDF plugin and if it does not support XFA sends me instead a text message instructing me to install the Adobe browser plugin that Adobe refuses to make available!
    I agree that PDF with XFA is an inappropriate way to implement this sort of application, and I would personally prefer an alternative.  For one thing using paper forms, even in electronic guise, costs more in the long run, since a civil servant must read the final paper document and enter the information into the government database, whereas if the client was presented with an ordinary web page the information could be entered directly by the client, and only validated by the clerk.  However in a transitional environment where only some of the clients have the ability to enter information into a web site many government applications will continue to be implemented in terms of paper forms.  In this environment it is important that all of the paper forms that have to be read by the data entry clerk look as much alike as possible.  That is why PDF is used because only PDF guarantees that all of the paper forms will be identically laid out.
    In this particular situation the government department in question has spent $276,000,000 so far on this particular subsystem over the past 3 years and so far it takes more effort to process each transaction than it did on the older more manual system.

  • Support for JES Web Server?

    How does access manager integrate with the jes web server? Do you have to install a policy agent like any other web server? Or is there more integration between the two products?

    I downloaded the Agent for Web Server 6.1, and it wouldn't install... said that it required 6.0 or 6.1, and 6.1 is what is provided with JES, so I'm not sure why it didn't work.

  • Business Objects support for international web standards

    The NZ government has defined web standards ([Standards web-site|http://webstandards.govt.nz/index.php/Home_page]) for delivery of content over the web.  I am working with a government organisation who wants to know how/if Business Objects supports international web standards and if so which and in what manner.  This is really around BOE and WebIntelligence primarily.  Any help greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks
    Carl

    Hi Carl,
    I just quickly took a look these standards you are refering to. They seem to be more in line for web site development - i.e content of nature like most internet web sites.
    BOE is an BI applcation delivering BI content is a specilaised environment. I would say it would be difficult to place the default application and capability under the general banner of compliance. However, you would need to map the guidelines to BOE to sus out compliance, but I don't feel it really necessary as you are using an application delivered over the web, not building a website.
    Nevertheless, should you prefer, BOE is fully supported by an SDK, so you could develop you own custom interface to meet all those nice compliance issues.
    Regards

  • Support for Creating Web Service from pl/sql package in JDeveloper 11

    We have been creating all of our web services from pl/sql packages in our Oracle database using JDeveloper 10.1.3.1. I understand that this capability is not supported in Jdev 11. We have been mandated to either move up to JDeveloper 11, or consider switching to eclipse, or even VS2008 and run .NET services from IIS. I have seen work-around solutions using TopLink and Jdev 11. Are there plans to revive this feature in the near future? We're now looking at switching to .NET since we could scrap our OAS instances and use IIS to publish web services. The only reason we were sticking with Oracle was the ease in converting all our existing package to web services with Jdev.
    Is anyone else in the same situation. If so, what solutions are you considering?

    Hi,
    there are a lot of option to make plsql web services .
    First you can stay with jdev 10.1.3
    Use the xmldb servlets
    use jdev 11g tp4 to create plsql ws and upgrade to jdev 11g production
    And I think in the next release of jdev it will be back , there are more options which disappeared like the adf bc sdo ws or jmx datacontrol etc.
    thanks Edwin

  • How to setup AT&T U-Verse Pace 5031NV Gateway router for Remote Web Access?

    The Pace 5031NV Gateway router is not UPnP able.
    logged into the router
    http://192.168.1.254/xslt?PAGE=C_3_1b_POST&NEXTPAGE=C_3_1b_POST I defined "Firewall Application Profile Definition "Windows Server 2012 RWA"
      I did NOT select an Application Type
    Windows Home Server 2011 required port 80 forwarding but the instructions for Windows Server 2012 r2 refers only to port 443.  Then the wizard attempts to setup RWA and returns two red errors   One refers to posts 443 and 80 so I added 80
    port forwarding.  I believe 80 is for http and 443 is for https.  following is the error screen shot after retrying with both ports forwarded.
    I can also say that I had no success trying to do the same with Windows Home Server 2011 and the 2Wire AT&T U-Verse gateway modem though there are a number of forums with discussion about this.  But now I have the newest ATT gateway modem from Pace.   
    Does anyone use RWA with AT&T U-Verse? 
    Eric Robert Lewis, Ph.D.

    Hi,
    Before you manually configure the router to forward the required ports to Windows Server Essentials, did you
    assign the server a static IP address
    by DHCP reservation of an IP address or by assigning an IP address that is outside of the DHCP address range? Just a confirmation, thanks for your understanding.
    Please refer to following articles and check if can help you.
    Windows
    Server 2012 Essentials: Router Setup
    Configure a Router - Windows Server Essentials
    By the way, if you select “I want to skip the listed issues for now and run the wizard again later”
    option and click Close button, then type RWA website in IE, can you access RWA website successfully? Or get any error message?
    If any update, please feel free to let me know.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,

  • Support for Creative Web Cam

    Does Creative have any plan to support my web cam 550, or do i have throw it out?
    Please advise.

    You don't need to use the headset. You can just use the regular devices plugged into the sound card of your computer which would include a microphone and speakers. If you have a laptop, a microphone and speakers are usually built in. The headset just tends to be more private and convenient and creates fewer problems when you're a alone.
