XPage - Quick Example: Save Time adding view page controls to a view on an XPage
By Andrew Pollack on 06/24/2008 at 11:06 AM EDTThis screenshot shows a quick example of how easy it was to add view paging controls to a view container on an XPage. I'm creating a custom control, which is really like a sub-xpage. You create custom controls to tie blocks of user interface together that work with specific data or functionality. You can then use them on your top level xpages, on other custom controls, etc. Unlike subforms, they're not limited by not being allowed to have the same field names, or by having some functionality that only works on the top level and not the child level. They're standalone XPages, but you can embed them on other XPages. Its a simple as that.
Since the control I dragged over is a view, taking a look at properties tab there is "Pager" set of properties. You can make your own of course, but for this example I've simply selected "Sample 1" to get the bar you see across the top. That's all I had to do to get the layout with the page numbering, hot links to more pages, previous and next buttons, etc.
Will this save you time?

It allows IBM to consume OpenNTF released software for inclusion into the core product base -- which means really good stuff could get added in as default templates or parts of the mail file, etc. It also means developers can use Google code and other Apache Licensed software without worrying about being excluded from OpenNTF. As far as I'm concerned, if you don't agree, you're wrong -- and you should fork off (your own source tree) -- maybe call it ......

When I'm not in the office, I've used cellular tower based connections for several years. Originally it was just a cellular modem, then Verizon upgraded the network to "1xRTT" which gave speeds comparable to a dial-up line at home. EVDO came out and we boosted to the speed of a cheap DSL connection, and now with EVDO Rev A we can be connected almost anywhere with speeds nearly as good as any hotel or coffee ......
