Sample for JavaScript DHTML Variables

ProcedureTo Use the JavaScript DHTML Variables Sample

  1. This sample can be accessed from:

    portal-server-URL/rewriter/JavaScript/variables/dhtml/dhtml.html

  2. Ensure that abc.sesta.com is defined in the Proxies for Domains and Subdomains list in the Gateway service. If this is not defined, a direct connection is assumed, and the Gateway URL is not prefixed.

  3. Add the rule specified in this sample (if it does not already exist) to the default_gateway_ruleset in the section "Rules for Rewriting JavaScript Source". Edit the default_gateway_ruleset in the Rewriter service under Portal Server Configuration in the Portal Server administration console.

  4. If you added the rule, restart the Gateway:


    ./psadmin start-sra-instance –u amadmin – f  <password file> –N <profile name>– t  <gateway>

HTML Page After Rewriting

<html>
<head>
<title>JavaScript DHTML Variable Test Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<script LANGUAGE="Javascript">
<!--
//DHTML Var
var dhtmlVar="<a href=gateway-URL/portal-server-URL
/rewriter/JavaScript/images/test.html>"

// The JavaScript DHTML rule identifies the right hand side of the dhtmlVar as dynamic HTML content. Hence, the HTML rules in the default_gateway_ruleset file are applied. The dynamic HTML contains a href attribute. The default_gateway_ruleset defines the rule <Attribute name="href"/>. Hence the value of the href attribute is rewritten. But the URL is not absolute; therefore, the relative URL is replaced with the base URL of the page, and the required subdirectories. This in turn is prefixed with the Gateway URL to derive the final rewritten output.

var dhtmlVar="<a href=gateway-URL
/portal-server-URL/../images/test.html>"

// Although the base URL of the page is appended, and the Gateway URL is prefixed, the resultant URL will not work. This is because the initial URL /../images/test.html is inaccurate.

var dhtmlVar="<a href=gateway-URL
/portal-server-URL/images/test.html>"

// Here again, the JavaScript DHTML rule identifies the right hand side to be dynamic HTML content, and passes it to the HTML rules. The HTML rule <Attribute name="href"/> from the default_gateway_ruleset is applied, and the statement is rewritten as shown. The Gateway URL and Portal Server URL are prefixed.

var dhtmlVar="<a href=gateway URL/portal-server-URL/
rewriter/JavaScript/variables/dhtml/images/test.html>"
var dhtmlVar="<a href=gateway URL/http://abc.sesta.com/images/test.html>"
var dhtmlVar="<img src=gateway-URL/
http://abc.sesta.com/images/test.html>"

// The JavaScript DHTML rule identifies the dynamic HTML content on the right hand side, and passes the statement to the HTML rules. The <Attribute name="src"/> rule in the default_gateway_ruleset is applied. Because the URL is absolute, only the Gateway URL needs to be prefixed. Ensure that abc.sesta.com is defined in the Proxies for Domains and Subdomains list for this URL to be rewritten.
