[opencms-dev] OpenCMS Access

Thu Oct 15 17:58:10 CEST 2009

 I think we misunderstood each other, probably I was using the word Template in the wrong context.

To clear this up. We are right now using HTML-Files in the OpenCMS without any Templates and/or schema behind. These Files do just contain plain HTML. This is what we are using for the eMail Stuff in our Module, and this is done in JAVA and not in JSPs.

What we are looking for, is basically a way to retrieve the full HTML-file after we migrated to using Templates for them.

Markus

Maybe some of the CmsXml classes might do?
Don't know. Is the content of the Email in these XML files?
Would you have to parse the XML?

I'm using the CmsHtmlMail class in a jsp to send Email like this:
   CmsHtmlMail htmlmail= new CmsHtmlMail();

   htmlmail.addTo("kuku at somewhere.de","Company GmbH");
   htmlmail.addCc("meier at somewhere.de","Company GmbH");
   htmlmail.setFrom("Infoveranstaltung at company.de");
   htmlmail.setSubject("Anmeldung");
   htmlmail.setCharset("iso-8859-2");
   htmlmail.setHtmlMsg(
   "<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN\"
\"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd\">\r"+
"<html>\r"+
"<head>\r"+
"<title>Registrierung</title>\r"+
"<style type=\"text/css\">\r"+
"body {\r"+
"    font-family: Tahoma, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"+
"    font-size: 12px;"+
"    text-align: left;"+
"    background:#f0f2f4;"+
"    color: #11316c;"+
"}"+
"td {     text-align: left;\r     vertical-align: top;\r"+
"</style>\r"+
...

And the htmlmail.send();
