摘要:
A community enables user membership in a distributed collaborative computing environment. The members can have access to a repository of resources. Dynamic notifications between client and server can be provided. A member can be logged onto a client which pings the server computer through no interaction of the user. A notifications manager located on the server can retrieve updates available for the member in response to each ping. The notifications manager can look up any changes to the resources that the member has subscribed to. The server can subsequently notify the client of the available updates. The client's user interface can be updated to reflect the relevant changes. A dynamic and granular interaction between the server and the client can be enabled instead of updating the entire portal page. Each ping can carry an id of the member and community, which the server can use to determine the relevant updates.
摘要:
A client and server computers can be provided in the context of a community framework. Portions of the client's user interface can be updated dynamically and granularly via communicating with the server and without reposting the entire page upon each communication. A dynamic content tag library can be provided to add dynamic update functionality to the client's user interface. The developer can use tags contained in the tag library when customizing the user interface for various community members. For example, a dynamic container tag can specify a target area on the client's user interface to be updated dynamically. This target area can be a portlet, portion or a portlet, value or some granular piece of data on the user interface. An action script tag can specify a particular update request to be executed by the server, the results of which replace the old contents of the dynamic container.
摘要:
A communities framework is disclosed which contains resources in a repository. The repository contains data stored in nodes wherein each node has data associated with a collaboration resource and each resource has a set of properties or attributes. A server can provide a content object for wrapping the node wherein the content object defines the type of resource contained by the data in the node. An extensible control is provided that performs operations on the node thereby providing an interface to manipulating the node's data. The extensible controls can allow developers to easily create new resources. A generic control can further wrap the extensible control and be adapted to provide an abstracted interface to the content object. An extensible portlet can implement the extensible controls in order to provide users with the ability to add new properties and edit existing properties of the resource.

Embodiments provide methods and mechanisms for organizing portal content that can enable a newly created portal element, i.e., a subsection of a portal, to be persisted as an externally, self-contained entity that can be created for the element and referenced by a control tree for the portal. A control tree includes information organized hierarchically or otherwise that is used to control serving of portal content. Externally persisted self-contained entities can be created for many types of portal elements. This ability of embodiments to persist new content externally in self-contained entities can enable embodiments to provide easier division of labor during the creation of portal content and improved organization of web portals
摘要:
A system and method for versioning content in a virtual content repository (VCR), comprising integrating a plurality of repositories into the VCR, storing the content in the VCR, maintaining a version history to track changes to the content, and wherein the content is accessible through a logical namespace that encompasses the plurality of repositories.
摘要:
The present invention relates to systems, methods, and computer media for administering portals. A portal provides a way to aggregate content and integrate applications, allowing a visitor to a Web site to access everything via a user interface. Portals can be composed of a collection of portlets, each of which typically presents an application. Portlets are arranged on pages, which in turn are part of a book. The present invention provides for a set of tools that modify portal settings in response to user input.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention enable an interface for sharing resources between applications. An indicator can be used to identify resources that are selectable. Additionally, indicators can identify locations of the page that can accept resources and a function to be performed when a resource is dragged into a section of a page corresponding to a web application. By utilizing, these functions, an interface is created that allows a user to select a graphical representation of a resource in a first application and cause the resource to be associated with a second application by dragging the graphical representation of the resource to the second application or otherwise selecting the second application.

摘要:
A preview tool for a portal can include a portal display produced from style information for the portal and a palette. The palette indicates style information related to curser positions. The style information can be a Cascading Style Sheet class.
