Provided herein are systems, and methods for use therewith, for creating a portlet that can be inserted into an external web page that is outside a portal framework. A portal product is adapted to create one or more portlets that are made available to consumers by a producer. The portal product automatically assigns a URL to the one or more portlets to be inserted into an external page separate from the portal product.

Portlets in non-portal pages

The present invention relates to systems, methods, and computer readable media for generating custom administrative tools. An administrative framework is provided that abstracts the implementation of certain administrative functions. A management Application Programming Interface (API) receives calls submitted in a preconfigured format from interface components generated by a developer or third party. The management API processes the calls and performs the functions associated with the calls. Multiple implementations are provided, through which an interface component can access the management API.

System and method for utilizing a common framework for portal administration tools

Embodiments provide mechanisms and methods for providing disconnectible applications capable of executing at least semi-autonomously, i.e., without needing constant contact with a server, on a client substantially independent of server connectivity. The ability of a disconnectible application to execute on a client substantially independent of server connectivity can enable enhanced flexibility in organizing applications to build data processing systems.

Disconnectible applications

There are provided mechanisms and methods for mapping information from disparate data sources into a single user profile. Embodiments can provide the capability to work with profiles for users as well as for other entities. These external data sources can include, without limitation: relational databases, file system and Java classes, Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs), Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) servers and other network accessible sources. These mechanisms and methods can enable creating a single user profile from attributes residing in disparate data stores. The ability of embodiments to provide mechanisms and methods for creating a single user profile from attributes residing in disparate data stores can enable easier configuration of profiles, without requiring users to write code to perform the mapping.

System and method for improved managing of profiles in a web portal environment

A portal includes an original configuration and extension. The original configuration can include resources and a portal file identifying the resources. The extension modifies the original portal to form an extended portal without changing the original configuration.

Extending an original configuration of a portal using portal extensions

The present invention relates to systems, methods, and computer readable media for editing the look and feel of web portal content. An editor enables a user to select a node in an HTML document and to view a list of style properties for the HTML document. The editor then presents a list of relevant style properties and an ability to edit the style properties. Additionally, style properties can be organized hierarchically, added, and removed.
