Training Points: - how to put a picture on
- how to resize a picture so it is appropriate resolution
- how to put a pdf on
- how templates work
- how ad rotator works
- how webpage rotator works
- href link 'title' attribute, how modern browsers show extended information about the link on mouseover.
- if page is PENDING and your not logged in as someone with admin access for at least one webservice, you'll get a 404, page cannot be found error. this is by design. we don't publish the existence of PENDING pages. Pending pages are also a way to ensure only admins can see the content if you don't want to wrap you content in the security wrapper.
- overview: laying out navigation, begin with the end in mind. order from top down.
- links - full URL vs short internal 'dynamic' name
source http://www.uccsda.org/files/its/img.jpg is NOT as good as
source /files/its/img.jpg as the latter will properly serve on HTTPS connections. - cut and paste of full links and apply link command - /add/ or /edit/
- layout table vs data table
- how top level functions work and URL as host header or subpage
- history, list of departments (and delete), templates starting with, templates merging
- brief overview of XML
- spell checking
- placeholders (cal and iframes)
- how library works, and file uploads, and hosting on our sever vs linking to others.
- banner suggestions (think abc)
- graphical links (wrapping a graphic in a link)
- push template to all 'new' websites before we train. standardize this template to answer recommendations from JON D.
- if you apply a security css style to a block of text, you can click toward the top of the security wrapper, select ALL of it (it'll turn black) under properties, the title is <div>, advanced tab, Description box, enter the Group_service.Group_Name you want to have access. (example) its web edit
- calendar events can contain links: should be preceded by http:// and be FULL URL
how their placeholders work, and how maxdescriptionLetters determines javascript popup upon render - hard return of [shift] - [enter]
- self reference links (click here to go to top, #content, jump to content links)
- setup a calendar in outlook(exchange): folders, public folders, create new, calendar xstandard placeholders, calender or event, edit custom tag and tell it the location of the calendar.
- when choosing a name for a resource, do NOT include the host name like 'uccsda.org test page' at render, the uccsda.org is stripped out when querying the database.
- links: difference between to an external website, an internal page, an internal resource (file), and a mailto: email link. or self referencing
<a id="top">
<a href="#top">
- links: spaces in new page names (and department names) may NOT be properly handled by all browsers as the convert to %20 from a 'space' is a browser function.
- lightbox: create a thumbnail or link, give it a link destination to the parent graphic, edit the link properties, the relationship should be to lightbox or to lightbox[group] where group binds images on the same page together during the presentation. the description (title) attribute becomes the caption. x closes, n next, p previous during view. javascript required.more info
- addrotator: Insert an addrotator placeholder and edit the attributes to include the _frames you want, they will be sorted alphabetically descending based on framename and the contents drawn on demand for the placeholder.
OR use the original method:
upload a .txt file with each section of the ticker separated into divs with class="message"
these messages can contain text and valid xhtml (the entire text page must be <html><body> ... </body></html> formed so some JS engines don't freak out and complain )
insert javascript into your page //<![CDATA[ new ajax_ticker("/files/its/ajaxtickercontent.txt", "ajaxticker1", "ajaxtickerclass", 3500, "fade") //]]>
source of content, css style, css class, ms between transitions, optional "fade" effect
Javascript required on client to see content, if JS disabled then content is ABSENT - review how the XML RSS Feeds work and why webpage descriptions are so important.
- review optional editing to text and putting the onmouseover to onmouseover="return escape('Note the javascript \'popup\' tooltip. This is a test')"
- xStarndard libraries (gif jpeg jpg png bmp) picture max size 0.5 MB
(txt zip pdf doc rtf tar ppt xls xml xsl xslt swf) other files max size 99 MB - ministry max size 1gb - iframe scrollbars yes, no, auto - auto recommended.
- inline css/style http://www.uccsda.org/edit/news
<table border="0" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="2" style="float: left; margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px;" width="202">
<tr align="left" valign="top">
<td>
<p>boxed content goes here</p>
</td>
</tr>
