mselbach Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Hi, checking out supercontainers great possiblilities, I came to a problem, which seems to be small but is crucial for the solution sc should be used for. I want to display an image on white background. I removed the border from the webviewer. On the mac the image is shown on white background but on the PC there is a thin grey border (like a dropshadow, thicker in top and left) around the webviewer. Please see attached screenshot. I think this is more a problem of the webviewer layout object on windows, but makes supercontainer look awfull on the pc. Does anybody know of a solution to hide this border? I tried all the style parameters of supercontainer, but there does not seem to be a style for removing this border. Regards, Markus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drrehak Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 I would try playing with setting image size to match webviewer size. Another Idea is adding thin white boxes with opaque white fill in, and make sure they are "on top" of the gray shadow that you want to hide.

mselbach Posted July 31, 2011 Author Share Posted July 31, 2011 that doesn't work, you can't put any layout elements above a webviewer object. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mselbach Posted August 7, 2011 Author Share Posted August 7, 2011 The problem seems to be the doctype of the generated HTML document: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> If I save the source to disc, remove the doctype and view the html file in a filemaker webviewer, the border is gone and the image is shown on plain white background. Unfortunatly we can't influence the html code generated by supercontainer server, so it will up to the guys at 360Works to implement this.

Smef Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 The code to remove the border in IE on windows is not part of the HTML spec, and so adding the strict doc type in there prevents the code (which is in place already) from removing the border on IE. Unfotunately removing the strict doc type causes some other problems, which is why it's still there. This is something we're aware of and are working on.

El_Pablo Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I found a solution to the borders in IE. You can encapsulate the SuperContainer link into a <iframe> without border. You can create a custom function that will have has parameter the link to your file and then set the webviewer with your custom function. Example : "data:text/html,<html> <head> </head> <body> <table><tr><td>" & " <iframe src=\"http://yourServer:8080/SuperContainer/Files/someFolders/system/logo?style=noapplet\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" frameborder=\"0\"> <p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p> </iframe> " & "</td></tr></table> </body> </html>" HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mselbach Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 El Paplo, could you please post an example file. The solution sounds promising but doesn't seem to work. Maybe I have missed something. Regards, markus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Pablo Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Here you go. Custom function here : http://www.briandunning.com/cf/1331 fm_forum.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mselbach Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 Thanks a lot! Works fine By adding: html, body { height: 100%; width: 100%; overflow:hidden; } you can remove those scrollbars too. Regards, Markus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illnill Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Hi all. Any clues on solving the same (but even worse!) problem with borders when showing the SuperContainer web viewer in IWP? /Niklas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mselbach Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 you need to add the following line to the iwp.css in your webpublishing engine/wpc/resources/iwpres folder: iframe{ border:none; } this will disable the border of all webviewers in iwp. regards, markus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbies BillC Posted March 2, 2012 Newbies Share Posted March 2, 2012 Thanks El Pablo (and Markus)! I was looking for a solution to this very problem for a printed report, and this function works great. However, as I tried to implement it in all of my web viewers, I began to experience connection errors to the SuperContainer server. We have a username/password for SC that's included in the web URL, but for some reason the function strips this information and forces the user to enter these crednetials manually every time a new layout loads. Since my users aren't told this information, it meant I had to remove the function. Perhaps this was the problem Smef was referring to? Strangely enough, it still works for my printed report because there are two web viewers in the layout, and only one uses the function. Since the other viewer contacts the SC server directly, it seems to "cover" the credentials the function-using viewer is stripping out. Has anyone else experienced these issues? I'd love to use this function on all of my layouts, but without figuring out why this information is being stripped out, I'm out of luck...
