Web Page-Layout Container Page
The Web Page-Layout (Container Page) contains markup language and SWE tag elements that define the Web equivalent of the application window. You can see this template's logic in CCPageContainer.swt. The container page template, like view and applet templates, is processed by the Siebel Web Engine.
The container page is the outermost template; it references view templates that in turn reference applet templates. For further information on the Web Page Layout (Container Page), see Application Configuration (Basic Concepts).
Container Page Areas
In the Web Page Layout Container Page, you find the following elements:
- The top of the container page contains markup such as corporate banner, as well as Siebel tags for predefined queries (favorites).
- The screen (tab) bar is generated beneath these as a table, and loaded by means of the SWE logic associated with the
<swe:screenbar>
and<swe:screenlink>
tags.- The view bar is also loaded, into the left-hand portion of the page, by means of the
<swe:viewbar>
and<swe:viewlink>
tags.Once the container page is loaded, with screen and view names displayed, the screen and view names function as hyperlinks.
- When a screen name is clicked, the template for the default view for that screen is obtained, and the view is generated and displayed.
- When a view name is clicked in the view bar, the view template that is referenced in the view's object definition is loaded.
The Siebel Web Engine processes the set of tags in the view template to incorporate applets into the page. The view object definition identifies the applets to appear in specific sectors, and the templates for these are obtained. Similarly, tag references to controls in each applet are resolved by obtaining the corresponding controls from the repository, which are loaded into the Web page as specified in the applet's template. The container page can contain frames to support independent updating and scrolling of the various areas of a page. The use of frames is described in the next section.
