Introduction
The My Portal page is your own personalized view of what goes on in the Catglobe system that is interesting to you.
For more information, visit helpfiles at vietnamhelpfiles.catglobe.com/ under Persionalization/MyPortal.
How to make user defined elements
A user defined element as its name is the one you can put anything you want.
An element contains 2 features:
- HTML content: input inside Detailed decsription tab's HTML editor. It is required to show the element in MyPortal page (empty content will end up in not displaying anything)
- Javascript: input inside Detailed description tab's script mode. It is used to manipulate the way the element will act, it can connect to registered web services or change the HTML content dynamically. jQuery is also supported, which make it even more powerful.
Script - Supported features

Problems
Even though it is quite simple to make an element but people usually get problems with using something. First, i want to mention some problems with HTML editor:
- Using flash object: You are free to add a flash object. Problem is that it is places on top of others, thus, you cannot see the menu opening from tools. To cover it, you need to add these parameters into flash:
IE: "<param name='wmode' value='transparent' />"
FF: 'wmode="transparent" '
- Be careful with the HTML you made. There is no checking or warrantee from MyPortal framework.
