OD Tag That Marks the Beginning and End of Content in a Frame

The <div od-type="frame"> tag marks the beginning and end of the contents that Siebel CRM places in a frame. The Siebel Web Engine displays this tag as an HTML frame tag, with the src attribute of the tag set to a Siebel Web Engine URL that gets the contents of the frame. You must place this tag in the body of the <div od-type="frameset"> tag.

The <div od-type="frame"> tag uses the following format:

<div od-type="frame" type="xxx" name="yyy"> ....
<!--od section frame close--> </div>

The <div od-type="frame"> tag includes the following attribute:

type

The type attribute indicates the nature of the contents of the frame. The Siebel Web Engine uses this information to decide when to refresh the frame. It supports the following values for the type attribute:

• Siebel CRM uses the following values in a container page template:

  • Toolbar. Specifies that the frame contains the toolbar.

  • Screenbar. Specifies that the frame contains the primary tab bar.

  • Viewbar. Specifies links to views and categories of views.

  • View. Specifies that the frame contains the current view, that is, the content area.

  • Page. Specifies that the frame contains a web page. Siebel CRM does not refresh these frames after initial loading.

• Applet. In a view web template, specifies that the frame contains an applet.

• Content. Defines the content area and contains a view frame that displays the main view. To display an alternate view, it can contain one or more AltView frames. The search center is an example of an alternate view.

• AltView. Designates subframes to display one or more alternate views in the content frame in addition to the one in the view frame.

• Name. Used only if the type of the frame is page. In this situation, you can use this attribute to define a name for the frame. For other frame types, the Siebel Web Engine creates consistent names for the frame.
