Using Java 5, how to develop customizable web-pages  like iGoogle ?

Is it possible to develop customizable web-pages like iGoogle does, using Java 5 ( simply using JSPs, servlets, JSFs, AJAX etc. and without using portals) ?
A simple example explaining how to provide 3-4 header graphics options ( like igoogle does) will be helpful. (iGoogle seems to create a cookie, which appears to be used to render the selected header-graphics).
TIA

Without using portals?
Google uses RSS feeds to compile their mashups on iGoogle. The positioning of those boxes are managed with AJAX and upon placement are saved into a session so they stay there for each visit after.
Please be a little more clear as to what you are looking for. Yes, it is possible to develop web pages using the technologies you specified to simulate something like iGoogle, so give us some more details on what exactly you're looking for.
Code wouldn't hurt either.

    How to develop a web browser using API javatv?
    I'm tryin' to build a web browser using the API javaTv and
    I want to know if that is possible and if somebody already made this.
    This web browser will run a page developed in jsp.
    Thanks.

    You don't need JavaTV to write a web browser.
    Whichever Java platform you're using with JavaTV should provide enough.

  • How can we  use java variable in javascript code on JSP page?

    How can we use java variable in javascript code on JSP page?
    Pls help

    Think about it:
    JSP/Java is executed on the Server and produces HTML+JavaScript.
    Then that HTML+JavaScript is transfered to the client. The client now interpretes the HTML+JavaScript.
    Obviously there's no way to access a Java variable directly from JavaScript.
    What you can do, however, is write out some JavaScript that creates a JavaScript variable containing the value of your Java variable.

    how to prevent duplicate web pages from loading

    <s>Hi berternie, can you describe this in more detail?
    Are you saying the identical page loads in two different tabs? When does that happen -- when you click a link? or when you use a bookmark?
    Or do you have multiple tabs open every time you see your home page (i.e., when you start up, open a new window, or click the home icon)?</s>
    I see, you have more info in this thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/930219

  • How tall is a web page?

    So we're doing pages 900+ pixels wide these days, but I'm wondering how much vertical content we can use before the user has to start scrolling - what he/she first sees when the page loads. Is there a rule of thumb (or mouse finger) for this?

    It's true that you need to make an educated guess about the people who will be viewing the site.
    For instance, if you know for a (relative) fact that they all use 12 inch monitors and IE6, that gives you an idea of what to shoot for.
    If you have a sense that they all have wraparound monitors (surely someone will invent them) that are 36 inches on the diagonal and the latest, greatest Browsers, that tells you something else.
    You can get general statistics about Monitor usage from w3c http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_display.asp Allowing for a vertical scrollbar and top of the Monitor screen material (toolbars, etc.), you can kind of guess at the actual Viewport sizes.
    If you want to keep people on your page, and not scrolling to kingdom come (how tall is a web page? how high is the sky?), there are strategies:
    Make the header stable and the container below it scrollable within a container so it looks like it's all on the screen...
    Make the page short
    Make the page liquid, so it doesn't hang off the page on small monitors or cower in the corner of larger monitors
    Use Spry Tabbed Panels, or Spry Accordions, or other Spry content techniques
    You can imitate Browser/Monitor Viewport sizes by doing Window > Cascade and adjusting the size of the floating window manually (drag the right bottom corner). The size of the Viewport will show at the right side of the Tag Selector at the bottom of the Document Window (1038 x 628, for instance).

I let my younger brother use my laptop yesterday, and now this is happening.

    I have a Macbook pro.
    Thank you!

    Your brother may have downloaded and installed something known as "adware." To see if that's the case, visit thomas_r.'s The Safe Mac website and look at the Adware Removal Guide page. You may also be able to use his Adware Removal Tool to get rid of the junk.
