XML Form Fieldset Style Formatting - how?

I'd like to use the <cfformgroup type="fieldset"
label="xxxx"> tags in some of my forms but I have had zero luck
figuring out which part of the .css for the skin I chose is for the
label attribute of the fieldset.
I know it's changable because there is a difference if I pick
basic over red but even comparing the two side by side and
modifying various styles like:
- label, .cfLabelTitle, .cfHeaderTitle and even trying to
create a .cffieldset I've had no luck.
Any help?

Hello everyone,
Aksiti, as Chetna Verma said, all you have to do is go to System Administration>Portal Display>Theme Editor-->Links. And then select colours for visited and unvisited links..
But, anybody can tell me where are stored the XSL files associated to a portal XML form under NW2004s?
I only find the XML files in KM, under /etc/xmlforms... Actually I'm using NW2004s, but when I used NW2004 the last year I found XML and XSL under /etc/xmlforms...
Do the XSL files have another location now on NW2004s????
Thanks
Carlos

Openning XML Forms 'Document' in a Power Point

Kinda strange question for everyone.
We are looking to have portal users enter data into KM using XML Forms. However, when the users go to view the content entered from the XML Forms we would like it to be view via a Power Point slide. Anyone done this before?

Hi Craig,
I think a solution could be a content filter which transforms the XML forms content into PowerPoint format. If you have a transformation rule from XML forms to PP format this should be no problem.

Here you go..Just follow these steps blindly and you are done.
1) Create a year prompt with presentation variable as pv_year
2) Create a report say Mid report with year column selected 3 times
- Put a filter of pv_year presentation variable on first year column with a default value say @{pv_year}{2008}
- Rename the second time column say YEAR+1 and change the fx to CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)+1
- Rename the second time column say YEAR-1 and change the fx to CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)-1
Now when you will run Mid Report, this will give you a records with value as 2008 2009 2007
3) Create your main report with criteria as Year and Measure col
- Change the fx for year column as CAST(TIME_DIM."YEAR" AS INT)
- Now put a filter on year column with Filter based on results of another request and select these:
Relationship = greater than or equal to any
Saved Request = Browse Mid Report
Use values in Column = YEAR-1
- Again,put a filter on year column with Filter based on results of another request and select these:
Relationship = less than or equal to any
Saved Request = Browse Mid Report (incase it doesn't allow you to select then select any other request first and then select Mid Report)
Use values in Column = YEAR+1
This will select Year > = 2007 AND Year < = 2009. Hence the results will be for year 2007,2008,2009
This will 100% work...

Date format in XML Forms

Hi all,
I already have done my article using XML FORMS. I added into the article the date field that I needed. So, I would like to format the date output in Render List as dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy. Its possible? Anyone knows how to do it?
Thanks in advanced,
Alcides Flach

Hi,
By adding in the Additional Metadata parameter the entry "customFormat=dd.MM.yy", you'll force the display of this property to this format. Look at SAP note 816761 for more info about this.

How to change the Hyper links color in the XML form

HI SDNs
Do u have any idea how to change the hyperlink color in the xml form. My requirement is as follows.I have created xml form by using xml template and i displayed this xml form by using Km document iview. I need tochange the hyper link color in the xml form content. I dont want to go for manual process by editing the xml form. because i have several hundreds of xml forms.
Appreciate if you give suggestion.
Thanks

Hi Ramana,
The most convenient way to change the hyper links is by using the Theme Editor. Go to System Administration --> Portal Display --> Select Theme --> Component-Specific Styles --> Links --> Function/Result Link.
Hope this helps.

How to achieve Single content but multiple views in XML form builder

Hi,
I have requirement something like this.
I am using xmlform builder to generate the content template for our portal.
I have 5 links where I need to render html content dynamically. I am using NewsExplorer and NewsBrowser layout. Presently I have created 5 xmlforms project and design the layout in the renderlist item. I am not satisfied with my approach. It seems very inefficient of doing it as all the content layout is same. but all the different iviews has different content to pick.
To make myself clear I am giving with an example
I have two iviews
Policy1 and Policy2 which are KM Navigation Iviews whose init path are diferent path to get the different content.
As the content has to generate dynamically , I am using NewsAuthor to create the content.
To achieve this , I have created 2 xmlform project( though the rendering format is SAME) and 4 iviews ( news explorer and newsbrowser for each ie policy1 and policy2).
Since I need to generate some 100 contents like this .
I do not think my approach is a very efficient one though the rendering format remains same.
I wish to achieve this by using one xml form project , one News author and one news browser to create different content as long as the rendering template format is same
this is something like this
when I click on the Policy1 link for content creation , It should only shows Policy1 content format . and should not display the content authoring for policy2. This holds good for the viewing also .and also I would like to create only one xml form project as long as the rendering format is same.
can anyone please tell me how to achieve this ?
thanks in advance

Hi Jasmine,
To make your project link alone visible, try this
To make the global setting for the availability of XML forms, choose Content Management > Form-Based Publishing > Forms Availability > Global Setting.
To make specific settings for folders, choose Content Management > Form-Based Publishing > Forms Availability > Folder Settings.
You need to give the name(s) of those XML project(s) you want to display in the Forms to Include parameter in the Settings for Folders.

Why and How to develop XML forms?

Hi All,
I am creating a bulletin board . So I need to create XML forms . I m not clear as to why do I need to create it and also dont know to create the same . Is there any software installation required for its creation OR else I can do it without any software . Please tell me
1.its need
2.and how to create
and if u have any sample xml form please share the same.
Thanks in advance,
Jasmine

Hi Jasmine,
XML forms are suited to document types that always have an identical or a similar structure. For example, a news item always has a title, author, creation date, and body text.
It is just like an application form. The text given by the authors are got using these forms, so that there is some format or pattern followed.
XML forms are like Templates, using which data are entered. The data entered can be resrticted to suit some conditions, for example, date format.
You can find the <b>How-To guide</b> <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/90b49c90-0201-0010-8296-bb22a60b2b76">here</a>. This also contains two sample forms.
Hope this helps,

but when I close the property palete and open it agian the value is returned to 1 !!!
how to show more than one record at the same page?????

Hi,
there's perhaps another property like "page protect". If than 2 records didn't fit at one page there's a page break. Or is there any object inside the repeating frame with page-break properties? Sorry .. it's like looking into a chrystal ball ...

How can i convert the HTML information in XML form to a PDF?

Hi does any body know how can i convert the content of an HTML field in a XML Form in a regular text to include in a PDF in a Java program?

Hi ,
On the tool bar you have an option "Browser" which is next to "HTML Editor" .
You know that for using these elements wo have to map them with Data Schema.
Step by step
1. In data Model Under Data Schema Add a child and name it Read_More.
2. In the left hand corner ,click on tab Type and from the drop down select "rid"
3.Click on the "Browser" from the toolbar (as told earlier) and drag and drop it on the form.
4. Drag the Data schema which u have made(Read_more) and drop it on the browser on form. On right hand side u will se the mapping done.
5.Click on the "Browser" which is there in the form and on the right hand side of the form u will see the property window.
6.In property window change the value of action property to "Item Entry point"
7. Repeat step 3 and 4 in Render and show form but using "label" nad not browser.
Do not forget to add Save button in Edit Form.
This will solve your problem.
PS:Rewards Point Please.

How to display system property in XML forms

Hi
We are using XML forms template for publishing news in KM. In the show form we got author field (a label in the form) which is mapped to system property createdby (PropertyReference = /Properties/default:createdby).But while displaying the form author is not getting populated. When I try to edit the form in XML forms builder in data model tab under properties node no property is visible. Nothing is shown up in properties even after reload option is selected from context menu of properties node.
I cheked by manually editing PropertyReference to some other property (e.g. modifiedby) but nothing is showing up.
Can you please suggest how the createdby system property can be shown in the xml form?
Thanks & Regards
Sudip

Hi Sudeep,
Please try to open the formbuilder in another machine and try to see the properties xml form design view.
You can even directly can create a lable in show form and add the property name along with the nama space name.
For default properties namspace is default.Create a lable UI element in show form and select the datasource property and add the property value in that.
With we can show file related system generated properties in show form.

How to reduce a PDF document that contains an Adobe XML form?

Hi,
I have created some fillable PDF files using Adobe LiveCycle Designer and used Adobe Acrobat Pro XI to save it as Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in and save)…
The form includes image, text field, check box, radio button, table and other controls, as well as java scripts behind. The files are from 1 to 3 MB in size. I tried Reduced Size PDF and Optimized PDF, but I got a message: “This PDF document contains an Adobe XML form. Such files cannot be optimized.”
My questions are:
Is there a way I can reduce the file greatly, say about 100 KB?
And after the size reduced, does it still keep the original quality in format and function?
Thanks

Hi,
if you only use default fonts like Arial or Myriad don't embed fonts into the form at all.
If you have to use a specific font because of corporate identity you should check if there are fields in your fom using other fonts like Arial.
Especially floating fields are a reason for big files as they use Designers default font even if you'll never see it in the PDF.
When using images, you should not check the "embed" checkbox, as this will save the images a base64-stream into the xml-source.
If unchecked the images are stored as hex-stream in the PDF-stream which cause a smaller file size.
Also, don't use high res images, 150dpi are far enough. You also don't need 16Bit depth as Designer only supports 8Bit images with RGB colors.

XML FORM - How to save read-only controls with a default value

Hello everybody,
I have a 3 xml forms, each one to create one type of news. I need to use 3 because each of this forms has their own controls. But the control which indicates the type of news (asociated with a KM Predefined Property) must be common in the 3 forms, in order to use it on searches.
The question is, how can I include in this forms a control:
- Visible for the user
- With a default value defined in the control properties (each form has a different value, corresponding with the type of news)
- Read-only mode
- The value showed in the control must be saved in the associated KM Predefined Property when the user clicks the Save button.
Anyone knows how to do this?
What control can I use?
I was thinking of trying with text boxes, but I don't find the way to make them unwritable (Read only mode).
It is posible using labels?
Thanks.
Kind regards

Hello Jose,
I know you responded with a question... I see it in the email, but I don't see it here! Very odd... but in response:
The first thing I do when I open the Edit.xsl file is do a 'find' for the name of the text field that I want to be read-only (in my test case, it's 'location'). Repeat the find until you see something like:
[code][/code]
Below there is where I put the new code. Mine looks like this:
[code]- <xsl:choose>
- <xsl:when test="location='' and ($editmode='create')">
- <xsl:choose>
- <xsl:when test="./xf:ValidationError/@tagname='location'">
- <input name="location" size="30" type="text" class="urEdfiTxtEnbl" id="field_1157467268006">
- <xsl:attribute name="tabindex">
- <xsl:choose>
<xsl:when test="$accessibilitymode='true'">21</xsl:when>
<xsl:otherwise>3792</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>
</xsl:attribute>
- <xsl:attribute name="value">
<xsl:value-of select="''" />
</xsl:attribute>
- <xsl:attribute name="readonly">true</xsl:attribute>
</input>
</xsl:when>
- <xsl:otherwise>
- <input name="location" size="30" type="text" tabindex="3792" class="urEdfTxtEnbl" id="field_1157467268006">
- <xsl:attribute name="value">
<xsl:value-of select="''" />
</xsl:attribute>
- <xsl:attribute name="readonly">true</xsl:attribute>
</input>
</xsl:otherwise>
</xsl:choose>[/code]
I put the <xsl:attribute name="readonly"> in both places (when test, and when not test). I'm not entirely sure if that's necessary, but that worked for me.
Hope this helps,
Fallon
