Displaying a space page in a web page
You can display the contents of a space page in another web page.
About this task
You can generate a <script> tag
that embeds a page from a space. You can then paste that <script> tag
into the HTML source of any web page so that the page content is visible
in that page.
Important: If
the HTTP server for the web page is not on the same host as Business Space, some widgets
might not work properly. This problem is caused by cross-site scripting
security that is enforced by web browsers.
Restriction: If
the first space page that users visit embeds a page with more than
one widget, these users might encounter a problem when logging in.
If they try to log in to all of the widgets simultaneously, they might
get a 404 error. To avoid this problem, you can use a web page that
embeds a space page with only one widget. For example, embed this
page in an initial page, landing page, or home page for the website.
After successfully logging on using the single widget, users can then
visit other pages that embed pages that contain any number of widgets.
Procedure
- Open the page menu by clicking its menu icon
. - Click Display on a Web Page. The Display on a Web Page window opens.
- To set the space page to automatically fit the width of the area it has in the web page, select Auto width. Otherwise, adjust the width and height used to display the page as needed.
- Specify whether you want the page to display scroll bars.
- Optional: To see what the page looks like with the <script> tag, click Preview. If change the display settings, close the preview window, refresh the markup, and then click Preview to see the effects of your change.
- When you are satisfied with the appearance of the page, copy the <script> tag and paste it into the source for the web page.
- Click Close.
