Embed Document View in Table View

The following section describes one possible way to implement the document view in the portal. A view table is used for this. A button in the view table sets the display page containing the "File Selection View" element as the jump destination.

Requirements

The following example assumes that, in connection with the application you are using to access the WebDAV documents, you have performed the following actions:

You have added data fields to the data group.

You have created an input page with the "File Selection" element below the data group.

You have created a view page with the "File Selection View" element below the data group.

Step-by-Step

  1. Create a view table on the page where you want the links and icons for the (WebDAV) documents to appear.

    In the example, this is the "Documents" page ().

  2. In the "Application" drop-down menu, select "(current application)."

  3. In the "Data Group" drop-down list, select the data group that contains the data field for the WebDAV documents.

  4. Add the desired data fields.

    Do not add the data field for WebDAV documents.

  5. Add two buttons (icons).

    So far, the properties of the view table might look something like this:

  6. For the button that will open the WebDAV document view, go to the "Actions" tab and set the jump destination to the view page where you placed the "File Selection View" element.

    In this example, this is the "View Documents" page ().

  7. For the button that opens the dialog for uploading WebDAV documents, set the "Actions" tab to link to the input page where you placed the "File Selection" element.

    In this example, this is the "Upload Documents" page ().

  8. Save or publish the application.
