Document Viewer Portlet. What it was supposed to do ?
|
|
|
| Hi,
I thought that Portlets where designed to "proxy" requests between client-side and internal servers and to do all the conversion to display correctly that information to the browser.
I mean that if you have an Excel document internally accesible by the Portal Sever then you could use the Excel Document Viewer Portlet to view that document at the client side without having Excel installed on the local system.
I was surprised to check that it doesn't work this way, it seems that the Document viewer porlet only implements a simple IFRAME.
Please, could you confirm this?
thanks in advance,

| Lotus Document Viewer portlet works with Lotus notes view portlet, both portlet have to be present on the same page, so you click a document on the view portlet which opens in the document viewer portlet. By default, the Lotus Document Viewer portlet supp
orts single sign-on (SSO) so make sure you sso enabled before you can use it otherwise it will not work.
