Editing the Layout of a Web Page

The Web Page Object is the top (highest) level object in the web hierarchy that Siebel CRM uses to create web pages, such as the following:

  • Login pages

  • Error pages

  • Container pages

Similar to an applet or view, a web page is associated with a web template. Siebel CRM maps web page objects to placeholders in the template. The Web Page Editor allows you to view and edit web page objects. For more information, see Editing the Layout of a View.

To edit the layout of a web page

  1. Make sure the configuration context is set.

  2. In Siebel Tools, in the Object Explorer, click Web Page.

  3. In the Web Pages list, locate the web page you must modify, right-click, and then click Edit Web Layout.

  4. Choose a custom control from the combo box on the toolbar, and then move it to a placeholder.

  5. Use the Properties window to set properties for the control, such as Caption, Method Invoked, and so on.

    After you add controls to the web page, you can choose the Web Page Item object type in the Object Explorer, and then use the Web Page Items list to modify the mappings you just created. For example, you can modify the caption for the Queries menu label, which is the FavoritesLabel web page item.
