The main HTML page used to render SAP Manufacturing Integration and Intelligence (SAP MII) content.

Features

You can configure the default SAP MII home page to meet your company, role, or individual needs.

A style sheet defines the home page layout. The default style sheet DynamicHomePage.xsl, which uses cascading style sheets (CSS), is located in the Samples/Web/Themes folder.

Your browser version and resolution is passed to the home page style sheet. The home page size is determined by the client. If you use Microsoft® Internet Explorer, you can expand, collapse, and hide the navigation tree to display Web pages, which require full resolution, without scroll bars.

Recommendation Recommendation

We recommend that you use a copy of the DynamicHomePage.xsl style sheet to configure your changes.

End of the recommendation.

The CSS file that is referenced in the home page style sheet includes style, font, and color settings, which you can edit to customize your home page. For more information, see Cascading Style Sheet Parameters.

You can also use the following user configurable parameters, which are included in the DynamicHomePage.xsl style sheet, to customize your home page:

Variable

Description

HomePageCSS

Defines the style and color of your SAP MII home page. You can define it using a relative or absolute path.

Copy the HomePageCSS file and rename it for use in each home page you create. For example, if you create an Engineering home page, do the following:

  1. Assign a copy of the home page style sheet to the Engineering role.

  2. Name a copy of the HomePageCSS file EngineeringHomePage.css.

  3. Reference EngineeringHomePage.css in the HomePageCSS parameter in the Engineering role's home page style sheet.

HeaderURL

Includes HTML at the top of your home page.

You must save the document as XML. If you paste HTML in the document, it must include a closing node for every opening node. For example, you need to include <BR> and </BR>.

You must define a node with a height attribute, which allows the home page style sheet to account for the size of the header. The height node can be on an image or table tag. The default file has height settings for the images on the top left and top right of the home page.

If the value is 1, t, or true, it displays the navigation tree and users can manually show or hide the navigation tree.

If the value is 1, t, or true, and the character length of item in the navigation tree exceeds the table size, the navigation items wrap to the next line.

ShowFooter

If the value is 1, t, or true, a footer is displayed.

FooterURL

Includes HTML at the bottom of your home page. See HeaderURL.
