[opencms-dev] Re: Static export of dynamic frames

[Moises at eskatoo.de]

Bart,

sorry for not posting earlier:
what I did to get static framesets working is to use "getUriWithParameter":
(I got the same problem witch was answered in the DEV-LIST here like this:)

Hi Stefan,
sorry, the OpenCms Documentation is not updated for static export of
framesets.
The method getFrameQueryString does not work with the static export.
Instead you should use the new method getUriWithParameter.
Here is an example that should work:


             <frameset  rows="115,*,30" border="0" framespacing="0"
frameborder="0">
                         <frame name="head" src="]]><method
name="getUriWithParameter">cmsframe=head</method><![CDATA[" scrolling="no"
noresize>
                         <frameset  cols="147,*" border="0" framespacing
="0"
frameborder="0">
                                     <frame name="nav" src="]]><method
name="getUriWithParameter">cmsframe=nav</method><![CDATA[" scrolling="auto"
noresize>
                                     <frameset rows="87,*" border="0"
framespacing="0"
frameborder="0">
                                                 <frame name="contenthead"
src="]]><method
name="getUriWithParameter">cmsframe=contenthead</method><![CDATA["
scrolling="no"  noresize>
                                                 <frame name="content" src
="]]><method
name="getUriWithParameter">cmsframe=content</method><![CDATA["
scrolling="auto"  noresize>
                                     </frameset>
                         </frameset>
                         <frame name="bottom" src="]]><method
name="getUriWithParameter">cmsframe=bottom</method><![CDATA[" scrolling
="no"
noresize>
             </frameset>



Hope this works for you, too...

Regards, Stefan

Well, I thought that it worked.  :(  The generated HTML from the last
attempt ends up as:

    <frame src= "http://server1/static/projects/projects/_1311"
name="menu" scrolling="NO" frameborder="NO" noresize marginwidth= "0"
marginheight= "0">

but "_1311" does not exist.  Nothing like that is generated.  When
browsing the dynamic version of this page (with Tomcat) the HTML for the
frame is:

    <frame
src="
http://localhost:8080/opencms/opencms/projects/projects/?cmsframe=inside_menu
"
name= "menu" scrolling= "NO" frameborder= "NO" noresize marginwidth="0"
marginheight="0">

and this does not work either.  It causes a "404 - not found" error.  So
back to the original question...

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO HANDLE DYNAMIC FRAMES WITH STATIC EXPORT?????
