About HTML Frames in a View Web Template

To display applets in a view, you can use HTML frames in view web templates and create a frame definition document. The Siebel Web Engine refreshes these frames only if one or more of the applets that are contained in a frame includes new data.

The following situations require HTML frames in the content area of a view web template:

• If a tree applet occupies a frame on the left and the corresponding list applet occupies the frame on the right in an explorer view.
• If the user performs a search. Siebel CRM requires a search frame and a results frame in the right portion of the content area.

For more information, see Guidelines for Naming a Siebel Web Template.

Example Code for Using HTML Frames in a View Web Template

The following is an example of code that uses HTML frames in a view web template:

<!-- CCView_33_66_Frame.swt start -->

<swe:frameset htmlAttr="cols='33%,66%'' border='1' frameborder='Yes'">

<!-- Column 1 Applets -->

<swe:frame type="Applet" htmlAttr="marginheight='0' margin width='0' scrolling='Auto'">

<swe:for-each count=10 iteratorName="currentId" startValue="101">

<swe:applet id="swe:currentId" hintText="Applet" var="Parent">

<!--start applet-->

<swe:this property="FormattedHtml"/>

<!--end applet-->

</swe:applet>

</swe:for-each>

</swe:frame>

<!-- Column 2 Applets -->

<swe:frame type="Applet" htmlAttr="marginheight='0' marginwidth='0' scrolling='Auto'">

<swe:for-each count=10 iteratorName="currentId" startValue="201">

<swe:applet id="swe:currentId" hintText="Applet" var="Parent">

<!--start applet-->

<swe:this property="FormattedHtml"/>

<!--end applet-->

</swe:applet>

</swe:for-each>

</swe:frame>

</swe:frameset>

<!-- CCView_33_66_Frame.swt end --> </HTML>
