Siebel CRM Composer allows for a more responsive Web design. Responsive Web design is an approach to Web design aimed at crafting sites to provide an optimal viewing experience (easy reading and navigation with minimal resizing, panning, and scrolling) across a wide range of devices (from desktop computer monitors to mobile devices).
The more responsive Web design feature includes the following aspects:
A flatter hierarchy structure in the Siebel Web templates and in the DOM (Document Object Model) for more efficient Web page rendering. The DOM is a way to refer to HTML elements as objects.
The Siebel Business Applications for Siebel Tools include a deeper hierarchy structure in Siebel Web templates. The flatter hierarchy structure in Siebel Business Applications for Siebel CRM Composer, with limited element nesting, provides more flexibility to render the screens in an application session and to render application sessions on different devices, such as mobile devices. The application session is rendered more efficiently because multiple requests to the server are not necessary for rendering. Also, only the needed elements are used to render the application session.
The flatter structure facilitates easier update of Siebel Web templates. For example, in the Siebel Business Applications for Siebel Tools, table tags are used to position the fields in a form in the user interface, but in the Siebel Business Applications for Siebel CRM Composer, table tags are not necessary for this positioning.
A database equivalent for the information in Siebel Web templates.
Instead of accessing and adjusting the .swt (Siebel Web template) file to configure Web templates, you enter information in records and fields in the Web Template Item view of the Web Template screen in Siebel CRM Composer to configure Web templates.
Additional fields and views to render Web pages, views, and applets. For more information, see "Added Fields in Siebel CRM Composer" and "Added Views in Siebel CRM Composer".
