URL Template Issues

[Dan Turkenkopf]

I'm using Beehive as the basis for a set of portlets running on WebLogic Portal Server 10.2.

When I click on any action link, an anchor representing that page link is being automatically created and embedded on the end of the URL [1], which causes the page to jump to that location.  My usability team would prefer that the browser stays at the top of the page so that the navigation elements are always available.

Walking through the debugger, it appears that the anchor reference is being stored as a URL fragment element, which I thought would be written to the {url:fragment} token in the URL templates.  However, the URLs defined in the beehive-url-template-config.xml [2] don't include that token - so I'm not sure why the fragment is being appended to the URL.

I've confirmed that the patterns defined in the file are being used, so it's not that the file is ignored.

I can't seem to figure out where the fragment is coming from or how to stop it from rendering.

Thanks for any help,

Dan Turkenkopf

This feature is a Desktop property called "scrollToWindow" you can
disable it in the admin tools for that desktop
