Lab 1 Creating a Web Page

Purpose
This lab provides the student an introduction to some basic web page design
concepts. Students will use Microsoft FrontPage 2003 to create web page content
and edit the properties of each.
Topics Covered
This lab will cover
Page (Document) Sections
HTML Tag Syntax
Changing Properties (font types/colors, background colors, etc.)
Procedure
1. Start Microsoft FrontPage the instructor will be able to guide you to its
location on the training computer.
2. Well begin by creating a template page that well use for creating additional
pages. Templates allow you to maintain the consistency of web pages on a web
site. If a new page isnt already opened, from the icon bar menu, select the
new page icon.
Page 3
SAP xMII Training

FrontPage should look like this:
3. Click on File and choose Open Site.

4. In the Site Name text box enter \\<servername>\Training (check with the
trainer for the <servername>).
5. Create a folder to save all the webpages that you create.
Page 4
SAP xMII Training
6. You should note 4 tabs at the bottom of your new page labeled Design,
Split, Code and Preview. Select the Code tab and review the code that
was entered by FrontPage.
Notice the HTML tags prefixed with the <meta> tag. The page editor inserted
these entries into the page source. Since they are contained in the header
section of the page between the <head> and </head> tags, this information is
not actually displayed on the page. <meta> tags contain information regarding
the web editing software, language, and web site theme that are applied to the
web page.
The text in between the <title> and </title> tags makes up a string that is
displayed at the top of the clients web browser. We will customize the title on
every new page that we create in this Lab. Enter an interesting title for your
template page.
Page 5
SAP xMII Training

7. Since we will be using this page as a template for the other pages we will
create, we will define the properties (e.g. fonts, colors, etc.) that we want. In
the<body> tag:
- Add a background color to the page by including the bgcolor parameter.
- Setup the font properties for the text within the body of the page by adding
the <font> tag with the parameters (face, color, size) you want. Dont forget
the closing </font> tag.
Page 6
SAP xMII Training

8. Switch back to the Design tab and view the effects of the changes to your web
page.
9. Now right-click on the page (in Normal view). In the pop-up window, select
Page Properties This will allow you to set some more document defaults
within the Template page. Review the tabs and the properties in each. You
will note the Page Properties is an easy place to change the title, background
color, fonts, etc.
Page 7
SAP xMII Training
10. Lets save this as our template page. From the File menu, select Save As and
enter a File name: BasePage.htm. Save all work in the Training folder that
you created.
**Note: To view our BasePage.htm, open the browser (Internet Explorer) and type:
http://<servername>/training/<yourfolder>/BasePage.htm
Page 8
SAP xMII Training
11. Now lets create our other web pages from the BasePage.htm template. Well
start with a page that will be the header for our web site. Modify the
BasePage.htm by changing the text (example: My SAP xMII Page), background
color, fonts, etc. Use your imagination. When you are done making your
changes to the header page, Save As Header.htm.
HINT:
When saving the page, use the Change title button to modify the Page title.
12. Repeat the above step to create additional pages for the Table of Contents
(TOC.htm) and two new base pages (Page1.htm and Page2.htm).

Lab 2 Images and Image Maps

Purpose
This lab will introduce the student to the basics of adding web graphics to a web
page. We will investigate images (graphics) and image maps (hotspots or hyperlink
regions) that can be used as part of a web site navigation system.
Topics Covered
This lab will cover
Adding web images or graphics
Image pathing and sizing
Creating / Editing Image Maps
Procedure
1. Well begin by inserting a graphic divider to separate the web pages header
information from the rest of the page. Open the Header.htm page and place
the cursor at the bottom of the page. From the Insert menu, select the
Picture\Clip Art option. Select Go to view the clip art currently installed on
your server.
Page 11
SAP xMII Training

2. Search through the available border clipart images and find one that you like.
Click on the image and select Insert to add it into your web page document.
3. Switch to the CODE tab and note the syntax of the <image> tag we just added.
You should see something similar to the following
<img border="0"
src="../../../Documents%20and%20Settings/I808636/Local%20
Settings/Temporary%20Internet%20Files/FrontPageTempDir/j0
157995.wmf" width="480" height="28">
The src parameter contains the image file path. Because we have not yet
saved our page, the image file is currently stored in a temporary file location.
When we save the page, you will be prompted to specify another file storage
location. We will save the file and note the new image later in this lab.
You should also note the height and width parameters. By default, these
parameters are set in pixels, resulting in a fixed image size, however they can
also be set as a percentage of the page, resulting in an image size relative to
the size of the page.
4. Modify the width parameter of your image to 90%. To see the effect of the
new setting, switch to the Preview tab and resize the width of your web page.
As you resize you should see the width of the image scale with the page. This
functionality is useful when developing sites for multiple resolutions.
Page 12
SAP xMII Training
5. Now Save the Header.htm page. You will be prompted to save the embedded
image to a location on the server. The location where you save the file will
determine the final path setting for the image (ie: src parameter). The image
path is saved relative to the source HTML page.
Example 1:
If you save the image in the same folder as the HTML page, the image tag
should look like this
<img border="0" src="j157996.gif" width="90%"
height="30">
Since the image file is in the same folder as the HTML page, no additional path
information is required in the src parameter.
Page 13
SAP xMII Training
Example 2:
If you chose to store the image file in an alternate location, the image tag
should look something like this
<img border="0" src="../images/ j157996.gif" width="90%"
height="30">
Since the image file in this example was not stored in the same location as the
HTML page, additional path information was included in the src parameter.
The path defines the location of the image file relative to the HTML page. In
this example, the image file named j157996.gif is stored up one folder level
(represented by ..) from the Header.htm page, in the /images folder.
6. Next were going to add another image that we will use to navigate our web
site. Open the TOC.htm page. From the Insert menu, select Picture\From
File., navigate to the Training folder and select the LinkMenu.gif file. Click
OK.
7. Well add a few hotspots or hyperlink regions to the LinkMenu image for
navigation. To do this, select the LinkMenu image. From the View menu, select
Toolbars\Pictures to display the Picture Toolbar
Hotspot
Tools
Page 14
SAP xMII Training

8. Select the Rectangular Hotspot tool and draw a rectangle around the Link 1
text on the LinkMenu image. After drawing the rectangle, a dialog box will
popup allowing you to enter a Hyperlink URL. Select the Page1.htm file from
your training folder that you created earlier and click OK.
9. Switch to the Code tab and review the <img> and the <map> tags. You should
see something that looks like this
<map name="FPMap0">
<area href="Page1.htm" shape="rect" coords="10, 36, 88,
62">
</map>
<img border="0" src="../images/LinkMenu.gif"
usemap="#FPMap0" width="100" height="130">
The map tag can contain several area tags. The area tags contain the actual
hotspot link information. The area tag includes parameters for the linked page
(href), the shape of the hotspot, and the coordinates (cords) for the
hotspot touch region. The coordinates are defined in X1, Y1, X2, Y2 sequence
and use the top left corner of the image as the origin.
The <img> tag was also updated to include a new usemap parameter that
references the <map> tag that was just created.
Page 15
SAP xMII Training
10. Switch back to Normal view and add another rectangular hotspot region
around Link 2. Create a hyperlink to Page2.htm. In the HTML view, you
should note a new area tag has been added after the existing area tag, but
before the </map> tag. The final HTML code should look something like this
<map name="FPMap0">
62">
91">
</map>
<img border="0" src="../images/LinkMenu.gif"
usemap="#FPMap0" width="100" height="130">
Save your TOC.htm page.
11. Open Page1.htm and enter any information that you want to be shown.
Experiment with the formatting tools located on the toolbars.
12. Open Page2.htm and enter information regarding the author of the web site,
credits to the instructor, etc

Lab 3 Tables
Purpose
Tables can be used to organize the layout of web pages. In this lab the student will
learn how to add tables and become familiar with defining spacing, borders,
background images, and hyper-linking cells.
Topics Covered
This lab will cover the following topics
Table creation
Cell text justification
Table/Cell backgrounds
Hyper-Linking cells
Procedure
1. Open the Header.htm page and switch to the Normal view.
2. First, well create a table that well use for organizing the text in our title.
Place the cursor in front of the title information on the page. From the Table
menu, select Insert\Table
Page 17
SAP xMII Training

3. Create a 1 row by 2 column table and click OK to insert the table and close the
dialog. The page should look similar to the following
Switching to the Code tab, you will see the <table> tag can contain many
<tr>(table row) and <td> (table data) tags. The number of <tr> </tr> pairs
determine the number of rows in the table and the number of <td> </td>
pairs determine the number of columns in the row.
The information between the <td> and the </td> tags defines the cell
contents. By default, FrontPage inserts as a placeholder for the cell
data.
4. Switch back to the Design view to modify the cell contents. Highlight and cut
the title text on your page, then paste it in the first cell of the table. Add
some additional text in the second cell.
Page 18
SAP xMII Training
5. You can change the settings of the entire table or of each individual cell by
right-clicking and selecting either Table Properties or Cell Properties from
the popup menu. This will display the dialog box
HINT: Setting the Border Size to 0 will eliminate the appearance of the
border so only the text will be displayed in the browser.
6. Open Page1.htm and add a 1-row x 2-column table at the top of the page. In
the left cell, type the text To TOC. In the right cell type the text To Page
2.
Page 19
SAP xMII Training

7. Next, well create hyperlinks to both the TOC.htm and Page2.htm page. To
create the hyperlink, highlight the appropriate text in the cell. From the Insert
menu, select Hyperlink to display the hyperlink dialog box, and then select
the appropriate page you wish to hyperlink to. Click OK to complete.
8. Open up Page2.htm and repeat the table creation and hyperlink procedure
(make sure you change the text in the right cell to To Page 1).
**Hint: To change hyperlink color: from File menu choose properties, then choose
the Background tab.

Lab 4 Frames
Purpose
The student will explore the use of Frames in a web page. Frames can be used to
organize the layout of your web site. A Frames page divides the browser window
into different sections (e.g. frames), each of which can display its own page. We
will create the Home page for the web site.
Topics Covered
Creating a Frames page
Frame syntax
Creating Hyperlinks to target frames
Procedure
1. First well create the Frames page. From the File menu, select New > Page.
to open the New page dialog box. Select the More page templates option, then
Frames Pages tab (note the variety of templates you can choose from). Click
on the Banner and Contents page and then click OK to create the new Frames
page.
Page 21
SAP xMII Training

Your new page should look like this
2. Next well need to Set Initial Page for each frame section. In the Banner
Frame (top section), click the Set Initial Page button and set the page to the
Header.htm webpage from your training folder.
NOTE: The full path to the page will be shown in the URL. This will be adjusted when the
page is saved much like the image file path.
Page 22
SAP xMII Training

3. Repeat this step to set the Contents Frame (left frame) initial page to TOC.htm
and the Target Frame (right frame) initial page to Page1.htm.
After setting the initial pages, the page should look something like this
4. Before we save our file, lets review the HTML code generated for the frames
pages. Switch to the Frames Page Code tab. It should look like this
<frameset rows="107,*">
<frame name="banner" scrolling="no" noresize
target="contents"
src="file:///C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/Training/Header.htm">
<frameset cols="174,*">
<frame name="contents" target="main"
src="file:///C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/Training/TOC.htm"
scrolling="no" noresize>
<frame name="main"
src="file:///C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/Training/Page1.htm">
</frameset>
<noframes>
<body>
<p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't
support them.</p>
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>
Note the frame name and target parameter values. These will be important
when creating hyperlinks.
Page 23
SAP xMII Training

5. Now we can save the page as Main.htm in the your training folder.
6. Switch back to the Frames Page HTML view and note the modified paths to the
initial HTML pages (defined in the src parameter).
<frameset rows="107,*">
<frame name="banner" scrolling="no" noresize
target="contents" src="Header.htm">
<frameset cols="174,*">
<frame name="contents" target="main" src="TOC.htm"
scrolling="no" noresize>
<frame name="main" src="Page1.htm">
</frameset>
<noframes>
<body>
<p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't
support them.</p>
</body>
</noframes>
</frameset>

Lab 6 Style Sheets

Purpose
The student is introduced to the basics of applying Style Sheets to a web page. We
will modify the OrderEntry.htm page font size and color by applying a basic style
sheet.
Topics Covered
Creating a new style sheet
Reviewing style sheet HTML tags (<p> and <style>)
Linking a style sheet to a HTML page
Applying style sheet classes in an HTML page
Procedure
1. First, well create a new style sheet. From the File menu, select New In the
popup toolbar choose More page templates, go to the Style Sheet tab, select
the Normal Style Sheet template, and select OK.
Page 35
SAP xMII Training

Next, well add a <style> tag to define the font information. Add the following
<style> tag and {classes} to the new style sheet. Type code right on the page.
<style>
p
{font face="BankGothic Md BT"}
p.blue {font face="BankGothic Md BT"; font-size:10pt; color="#0000FF"; font
style="bold"}
p.red
{font face="Verdana"; font-size:15pt; color="#800000"; font style="bold"}
p.ucase {font face="BankGothic Md BT";text-transform:uppercase}
</style>
Save the page as style.css in the /Training/<yourfolder>

folder on your web server, and then close the file.
2. Now we can link a page to the newly created style sheet and
apply the styles to our text. Open the OrderEntry.htm we
created in the previous lab. From the Format menu, select
Style Sheet Links...
Page 36
SAP xMII Training

In the Link Style Sheet window, click the Add button and select style.css from
your training folder. Click OK.
3. To apply the style sheet classes, highlight the Order Entry Lab Example text
in the OrderEntry.htm page. From the drop-down menu on the FrontPage
toolbar, set the class to Normal.red. You should notice that the text color did
not change. That is because we are still in Normal view. Go to the Preview
tab to view the color change.
Continue to apply the classes to the other text on the page as follows
Page 37
SAP xMII Training
Text
Class
Order Date
Normal.Blue
Description
Normal.Blue
Quantity
Normal.Blue
Ship From
Normal.Blue
Horsham
Normal.ucase
Exton
Normal.ucase
4. Lets review the new HTML code in our page. You will note a link to the style
sheet was added to the heading of OrderEntry.htm similar to this
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
You should also note how the <p> tags for the text have
been modified to reflect the classes we applied
<p class="blue"> Order Date
5. Additional Resources for changing or embedding different font styles

within a web page can be found at :
www.microsoft.com/typography/web/embedding/weft
The syntax for embedding fonts into a web-browser would look

something like this
@font-face{font-family:Nueva Roman; src:url(nuevar).eot)}

Lab 7 SAP xMII Installation Guide

Introduction
One of the key benefits of the SAP xApp Manufacturing Integration and
Intelligence (SAP xMII) is its ultra-thin client architecture that requires
zero client administration. SAP xMII clients require a standard Web
browser only which minimizes installation and management. No SAP xMII
software needs to be installed on any of the client systems. Setup and
installation of SAP xMII is performed entirely on your Web server. The
client browser does require that a Java Runtime Environment (JRE) plugin to be installed in order to use the full set of user interface objects. The
supported JRE for a client machine is version 1.4.2 from Sun
Microsystems, Inc. (the latest release of 1.4.2 is recommended for the
client).
Note: It is not recommended that the server application be
installed on a server with a JSDK/JRE version greater than
1.4.2_07.
This SAP xMII installation is optimized to support Microsoft Internet
Information Services (IIS) on Microsoft Windows 2003; however,
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server may also be used. Support for any nonWindows platforms and/or support for any servlet engine other than that
supplied with the product requires special licensing arrangements. There
is no end user support for these other platforms.
SPC data analysis requires a database to be installed and configured. The
recommended configuration is to install Microsoft SQL Server directly on
the Web server.
Note: You do not need a database if you are not using SPC data
analysis. The core SAP xMII functionality stores its
configuration data in operating system files.
The SPC data analysis option benefits from a high performance CPU.
SAP xMII includes an add-in for Microsoft FrontPage and one for Macromedia
Dreamweaver that enables the use of these tools as a unified development
environment for your SAP xMII application. Refer to the Installing the FrontPage
Add-In section of this topic for more information. If you are using Macromedia
Dreamweaver, refer to the Installing the Dreamweaver Add-In section of this
topic for more information.

The required system resources vary based on your applications; however, for sizing purposes, an
estimated 2-4 MB per simultaneously connected user can be used.
Virtually any Web browser, including Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, Netscape
Communicator, Opera, and Mozilla Firefox, can be used with SAP xMII. We recommend that you
use the most recent versions of these products. As stated above, the client should have the Sun JRE
plug-in installed to the browser.
The Sun Java Runtime Environment (JRE) must be installed on the server prior to the SAP xMII
installation (It is recommended that you download and install the full JSDK, instructions can be found
below).
Note: Turn off the Java automatic update mechanism via the Java Plug-in Control Panel.
It is strongly recommended, although not required by SAP xMII, that the local volume where you are
installing SAP xMII be formatted with the NTFS file system. This will enable a high degree of security
control over your Web page content via direct integration with the Windows NT or Windows 2000 and
IIS security and authentication subsystems.
If you will be using the SAP xMII FrontPage add-in, you must be running Microsoft FrontPage 2000
and must have the FrontPage 2000 server extensions installed on your Web server. Refer to the
FrontPage section for detailed instructions on how to install these products.

System Installation Prerequisites
You will need to obtain a license file in order to run SAP xMII. You may
request a license file at http://support.lighthammer.com, or through
support@lighthammer.com. See the license manager section of the help
for more information.
The Sun JSDK 1.4.2_07 must also be downloaded and installed on the
server prior to installing SAP xMII. You can download the JSDK directly
from
http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.4.2_07/index.html. Press on
the "Download J2SDK" link on this page, save it to disk, and install the
JSDK. A link to this site is also available on the xMIIInstall.htm on the
root directory of the installation media (see below step by step
instructions for more information).
Windows NT
You must install a Web server prior to installing SAP xMII. Microsoft Web
Server 4.0 is available as a free add-on to Windows NT Server or
Workstation as part of the Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack. You can
download the option pack or get it on CD-ROM from your local Microsoft
reseller. If you are installing SAP xMII on an Windows NT Server system,
you will install IIS 4.0. If you are installing SAP xMII on a Windows NT
Workstation machine, you will install Personal Web Server (PWS) 4.0.
Detailed information on installing IIS is provided with the Windows NT
Option Pack. During the NT Option Pack installation it is important to
select the Custom installation option and verify that the following
components are selected for install:
Internet Information Server (IIS)
Internet Service Manager
If you will be using ODBC data sources, it is suggested that you obtain the
latest Microsoft Data Access Components from the Microsoft Data Access
Web site and install them on your Web server. Note that these are not
required to access Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle, as SAP xMII will install
direct, high-performance drivers for these databases.
If you are running Windows NT 4.0 and Internet Explorer 4.x on your Web
server, it is recommended that you update certain system files before
installing SAP xMII. It is advised that you run a Windows Update and
install all recommended updates before proceeding.
Note: Installation of IIS may cause the removal or overwrite
of some of the Windows NT Service Pack
components. It is recommended that you reinstall
Service Pack 6a or greater on NT systems, prior to
proceeding to the installation of the SAP xMII
application.
Page 41
SAP xMII Training

Windows 2000
If you are installing SAP xMII on an MS Windows 2000 Server system,
you will install IIS 5.0. If you are installing SAP xMII on an MS Windows
2000 Professional system, then you will install Personal Web Server
(PWS) version 5.0. Microsoft Windows 2000 will typically install the IIS
5.0 components you will need to run SAP xMII.
The Microsoft Web servers for Windows 2000 systems are available as
part of the installation process of the operating system. If you already
have the operating system installed, without the Web server, you may run
the additional setup required by choosing "Add/Remove Windows
Components" after starting the Add/Remove Programs service available
within Control Panel (Internet Information Services (IIS) is the required
component).
If you will be using ODBC data sources, it is suggested that you obtain the
latest Microsoft Data Access Components from the Microsoft Data Access
Web site and install them on your Web server. Note that these are not
required to access Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle, as SAP xMII will install
direct, high-performance drivers for these databases.
Note: Installation of IIS may overwrite or cause the removal
of some of the Windows 2000 service pack
components. It is recommended that you reinstall
Service Pack 4 or greater on Windows 2000 systems,
prior to proceeding to the installation of the SAP xMII
application.
Windows 2003
By default, Windows 2003 Server has certain locked capabilities that must
be changed after SAP xMII installation in order for SAP xMII to run. You
must create a virtual directory in IIS with the proper privileges so that the
servlet engine will run. Complete the Additional Steps for Windows 2003
section after the Step-by-step Installation.
Windows XP Professional
Microsoft Windows XP Professional is not a supported server platform for
production environments. It should be used for demonstrations and
limited evaluations only.
If you are installing SAP xMII on a Microsoft Windows XP Professional
system, you will install IIS 5.1. IIS is not installed by default with the
operating system. You will have to go to the Add/Remove Windows
Components section and choose to install it. Select the World Wide Web
Service and press Details, then check the Scripts Virtual Directory.
Page 42
SAP xMII Training
When installing IIS, you MUST do a custom install and choose to

install the Scripts Virtual Directory. Without this virtual directory
SAP xMII WILL NOT run. Additionally, if you have installed any
Windows XP Service Packs, it will be necessary to reinstall them
after adding IIS.
If you are using SQL Server 2000, you should have Windows XP
service pack 2 and SQL Server 2000 service pack 3 installed.
Step-by-step Installation
Note: If an error occurs during the install, please review the install
logs for more information.
1. Make sure you are logged on to the server machine with an

Administrator account.
2. If you are running Windows NT, stop the Web server and IIS via the
Control Panel's Services applet.
If you are running Windows 2000 or Windows 2003, stop the Web
server and IIS via Start | Programs | Administrative Tools |
Services by stopping the IIS Admin Service.
This process automatically stops dependent services such as the
World Wide Web Publishing service, FTP service, and SMTP service.
3. If you have physical CD media, insert the SAP xMII CD into your
CD-ROM drive. Auto-run opens the SAP xMII Installation page in
your default browser. If you downloaded the software from the
SAP Service Marketplace, extract the downloaded archive to a local
directory and then open the xMIIInstall.htm page in the chosen
directory.
Note: If you are using physical media and auto-run fails, you can
open the xMIIInstall.htm page from the CD root to install SAP
xMII. A link to the Sun Java 2 SDK installation is also available
on this page if you did not yet download and install it. Once the
JSDK is installed, you can run SETUP.EXE directly from the
install folder.
Page 43
SAP xMII Training

4. If you already installed the Sun JSDK 1.4.2_07 on the server,
continue to step 5.
OR
If the Sun JSDK 1.4.2_07 is not installed, download the JSDK
directly from
http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.4.2_07/index.html. Cl
ick the "Download J2SDK" link, save the file to disk, and run the
setup from the local disk.
OR
If a prior version of the Sun JDK or JRE is installed, uninstall the
JDK/JRE and all references to Sun Java products including the
following:
Java 2 Runtime Environment (JRE)
Java 2 Software Development Kit (SDK)
Residual folders and files under the root directory (i.e.,

C:\jdk1.3.1_01) or under \Program Files\Java
Registry entries (via Start | Run, enter Regedit in the Open

field, select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE, and delete
the JavaSoft folder and all its sub-directories)
Then install the Sun JSDK 1.4.2_07.

7. The Choose Destination Location window appears and prompts you
to select a destination folder where the setup will install the SAP
xMII application. The default destination folder is usually
acceptable, although it is recommended that you install the
Lighthammer directory to the same drive on which you installed
IIS. The Lighthammer directory should be installed on the root of
the drive you select. You should not install it at locations such as
Program Files, etc. Click the Next button to continue the
installation.
Page 45
SAP xMII Training

8. Another window appears and prompts you to choose a destination
location for the Web root directory for the Web server. The default
location for Microsoft IIS is C:\InetPub\wwwroot and is usually
acceptable. If you moved your default Web root, indicate it here.
Click the Next button to continue the installation.
9. If you are upgrading from a version prior to version 11.0, the

following window appears. Click the Yes button to continue the
installation as an upgrade. Click the No button to exit the
installation. If you are not upgrading a version prior to 11.0, skip to
step 10.
Page 46

10.Confirm the location of your Illuminator directory. The correct
location should default.
11.If your previous version was installed with the ServletExec ISAPI
filter, it must be uninstalled in order to continue with your current
installation. To correctly uninstall the ISAPI filter, the SAP xMII
install must reinstall the ISAPI filter. Follow the ISAPI filter install
instructions and accept all defaults. If your previous install did not
include the ISAPI filter, you may skip to step 13.
Page 47
SAP xMII Training

12.Once the ISAPI install completes, you must uninstall it. Click the OK
button to uninstall the ISAPI filter.
Click Yes to uninstall ServletExec ISAPI
Click the Yes button to stop the IIS Admin service.

Click the Yes button to delete the ServletExec ISAPI install
directory.
After the ISAPI uninstall is complete, install ServletExec Application

Server.
13.A window appears noting that the ServletExec Application Server
(AS) install is about to be launched. Please make special note of
the instructions on this dialog before proceeding with the AS
installation.

17.Choose IIS as the Web server.
Page 52
SAP xMII Training

18.If the Scripts Virtual Directory does not exist, the following window
appears.
19.Enter a port number for the Application Server.

Note: This is an internal port only, and IIS will continue to run on
port 80. All SAP xMII content will still be accessed through port
80. In order for the application to operate properly, other
applications should not be using the port number you enter.
Page 53
SAP xMII Training
If you want to change this port number at a later time, see Changing
the Application Server Port Number.
After you confirm the selections you made above, you can select a
password for the ServletExec admin account or you can leave the
password blank. Then, click the Yes button to install ServletExec AS
as an NT service.
20.You do not need to view the ServletExec install log or the readme

Page 54
SAP xMII Training

21.When the Servlet Exec AS installation is complete, the SAP xMII
installation asks for the AS installation location so that the SAP xMII
webapp files can be copied to the correct location. The file transfer
may take a few minutes. The default location should be the correct
location.
Page 55
SAP xMII Training

22.Select an option button for the amount of RAM that you wish to
designate to SAP xMII via ServletExec AS.
Note: Once the installation is complete and SAP xMII is operating

properly on ServletExec Application Server, it is no longer
necessary to restart IIS in order to restart the SAP xMII
application. Simply go to the Services console, and restart the
ServletExec-<InstanceName> service. That process will reload SAP
xMII.
Page 56
SAP xMII Training

23.Enter the fully qualified machine name (e.g.,
MACHINE_NAME.Domain.com) of the machine on which you are
installing SAP xMII. It is required to identify the location of the
security server in a multiple domain and/or third-party single signon scenario. If you are not implementing across domains or using
third-party single sign-on, the machine name (without the domain
name) is sufficient.
Page 57
SAP xMII Training

24.Enter the anonymous IIS user account (e.g., IUSR_Machine_Name)
of the machine on which you are installing SAP xMII. The
anonymous IIS user account is used to set permissions on SAP xMII
install directories.
The installation begins copying files and installing. If an error

occurs, the InstallShield stops and the setup does not continue.
25.If you are upgrading from a previous version, the following window
appears. Click the Yes button to run the 11.5 migration tool. The
migration tool upgrades your system configurations from your
previous version to the current. If you click No, you can run the
migration from the Start menu after the installation.
Page 58
SAP xMII Training

26.Click the OK button to run the system migration. When the
migration is complete, click the Cancel button to close the window.
27.If you are upgrading from a version prior to 11.0, the following
window appears. Click the Yes button to run the security migration.
The security migration does not have an interface like the system
migration. A DOS window appears; close it to run the security
migration. If you are upgrading from 11.0 or 11.0.1, the security

restarts the IIS Admin Service. In Windows 2000, all Web services
can also be managed through Start | Programs | Administrative
Tools | Internet Services Manager.
32.Before accessing SAP xMII you need to set up your license. To do
this, copy your lhcms.lic license file into the
C:\Lighthammer\License directory and then restart your
ServletExec-{InstanceName} NT service in the Windows
Services window.
Page 62
SAP xMII Training

Note: It usually takes several minutes to restart the application
instance, so you will not be able to access the application until it
is finished.
Additional Steps for Windows 2003

Complete the following steps to allow the servlet engine to run as a
recognized Web service extension.
1. Select the Web Service Extensions folder.
2. Click the Add a new Web service extension link. The New Web
Service Extension window appears.
3. Enter ServletExec as the new Web service name.

Page 63
SAP xMII Training
5. Select the Set extension status to Allowed check box.

6. Click the OK button.
Installing the FrontPage Add-in

The SAP xMII add-in for Microsoft FrontPage 2000 and Microsoft
FrontPage 2002 is installed in the \Lighthammer\Illuminator\Wizards
directory on the drive on which you installed the SAP xMII application.
In order to use the add-in, it must be installed on each PC that will be
running FrontPage. On computers other than the Web server, a Web
package installation is available on the SAP xMII Web server:
http://<servername>/Lighthammer/WizardInstall/IlluminatorWizard.exe.
You can save the file locally and run it, or you can select Open and run it
directly from the Web server.
Note: Windows 2003 Server requires the FrontPage 2002 Server
extensions.
Once the file is installed (the default is
<SysDrive>:\Lighthammer\Illuminator\Wizards), open FrontPage. Select
the /Tools/Add-Ins menu option. If you already had a previous version of
the Add-in installed (prior to Illuminator 9.5) highlight the SAP xMII
Wizard selection and press the Remove button. If this is a new install,
skip to the enable step below.
Page 64
SAP xMII Training

To enable the new add-in, click the Add button, and browse to the location
where the Illum95FPWizard.dll file resides (default is
<SysDrive>:\Lighthammer\Illuminator\Wizards). After clicking the OK
button, you should see the SAP xMII add-in installed as shown in the
following dialog:
The add-in is automatically loaded each time FrontPage is started. The

add-in includes the SAP xMII Object, the Script Assistant, and links to the
SAP xMII Template Editor and the System Administration Editor.
Installing the Dreamweaver Add-in

The SAP xMII add-in for Macromedia Dreamweaver is installed in the
\Lighthammer\Illuminator\Wizards directory on the drive on which you
installed the SAP xMII products.
NOTE: In order to use the add-in, this file must be installed on each PC
that will be running Dreamweaver. On computers other than the Web
server, a Web package installation is available from the SAP xMII Web
server:
http://<servername>/Lighthammer/WizardInstall/IlluminatorWizard.exe
Use the following steps to enable the Dreamweaver add-in:
1. Copy the C:\Lighthammer\Illuminator\Wizards\IllumDWWizard.dll
file to your local installation of the Dreamweaver MX program,
JSExtensions directory (the default is C:\Program
Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver MX\Configuration\JSExtensions).
2. Copy the C:\Lighthammer\Illuminator\Wizards\Illuminator
Object.htm file to C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
MX\Configuration\Commands.
3. Copy the C:\Lighthammer\Illuminator\Wizards\Illuminator Script
Assistant.htm file to C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
MX\Configuration\Commands.
Page 65
SAP xMII Training

You should then be able to go into Dreamweaver and find the links at the
bottom of the Command menu. If selecting SAP xMII Object does not
display the plug-in, open a command prompt and type
"cd\Lighthammer\Illuminator\Wizards" to navigate to the folder where the
DLLs are located. Then type "regsvr32 IllumDWWizardGUI.dll" which
should register the dll. Dreamweaver should then prompt you for the SAP
xMII server name or internet protocol (IP) address (it defaults to
localhost) when calling up the plug-in; this is similar to the standalone
version of the plug-in.
You can then configure Dreamweaver for editing SAP xMII Report pages
(.irpt).
Initialization
By default, SAP xMII starts up (initializes) when the NT Service starts
up. There is a time delay for the initialization in order for various system
services to start up as before SAP xMII initializes. It is important that the
timing is correct. The default delay is 30 seconds. This can easily be
changed if it is causing problems. A symptom of this problem is a class
not found error in the Servlet Exec logs, because not all systems were
initialized before SAP xMII was started, causing some paths to be
incorrect.
Until the delay time is complete, it is recommended that you do not
attempt to query SAP xMII. This includes accessing the SAP xMII main
menu. Keep in mind that the delay is in addition to the delay caused by
the NT Service start up time. See the Server Logging section to see how
to access the Servlet Exec Logs. See the section on SAP xMII
Initialization in the system configuration guide for more information on
this topic.
Time Synchronization of Servers and Clients

In order for SAP xMII to operate correctly, the system clocks on the Web
server, data servers, and client browsers should be maintained in
reasonably close synchronization.
In the case where other applications on the Web server prevent the
enabling of automatic daylight savings time adjustment, you must
configure the time zone to use the option that does not include the auto
adjust checkbox [e.g., use the (GMT-05:00) Bogota, Lima, Quito time
zone instead of the (GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada) time zone].
Installation Log Files

There are three installation logs created when installing SAP xMII. If you
experience problems during your installation or have questions about
installation locations, you can review these log files.
SAP_xMII_Install_date_time.log is an overall general log file for the

installation located in the Lighthammer\Logs directory.
Page 66
SAP xMII Training
CMSServicesInstall_date_time.log contains details relating to the

installation of your SAP xMII services and is located in the
Lighthammer\Logs directory.
xMIISecurityInstall_date_time.log contains details relating to the

installation of Security Manager and is located in the
Lighthammer\Logs directory.

Lab 11a Scripting with xMII

Purpose
The purpose of this lab is to use JavaScript to interact with xMII applets. We will
use Applet properties and methods to dynamically change the output of the xMII
Applets.
Topics Covered
Exploring xMII Applets Name-Value pairs
JavaScript and xMII Applets
Procedure
Scripting Drill-Downs
In the following Lab we will use JavaScript to drill-down between multiple
applets and correlate data. As a result, the users will be able to select a specific
batch from the BatchList applet and populate the other applets with correlating
data based on the selected batch.
GRID to GRID (BatchList to LotList)
1. First, we must prepare the BatchList and LotList applets for scripting:
a. In FrontPage, click on the Code Tab and find the BatchList Applet. Add
the following highlighted content:
<table border="0" cellspacing="0" width="765" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td valign=top rowspan="2" width="378">
<APPLET NAME=BatchList CODEBASE="/Illuminator/classes" CODE="iGrid"
<PARAM NAME="QueryTemplate" VALUE="Training/BatchListQuery">
<PARAM NAME="DisplayTemplate" VALUE="Training/BatchListGrid">
<PARAM NAME="SelectionEvent" VALUE="UpdateDetails">
</APPLET>
</td>
b. Find the LotList Applet and add the following highlighted content:
<td colspan="2" width="765">
<APPLET NAME=LotList CODEBASE="/Illuminator/classes" CODE="iGrid"
<PARAM NAME="QueryTemplate" VALUE="Training/LotListQuery">
<PARAM NAME="DisplayTemplate" VALUE="Training/LotListGrid">
<PARAM NAME="Param.1" VALUE="0">
</APPLET></td>
Page 129
SAP xMII Training

c. With our applet prepared for scripting, we will build the JavaScript
functions. Enter the following highlighted content. This will modify the
LotList applet to include only the appropriate Lot. Enter the following
code just after the </head> line.
<script type="text/JavaScript">
function UpdateDetails(){
//set up aliases for easy reference
var BatchGrid = document.BatchList.getGridObject();
var LotQuery = document.LotList.getQueryObject();
//get the selected LotID
var selLot = BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValueByName(LotID);
//change the where clause for the LotListQuery
LotQuery.setParam(1, selLot);
//do a refresh here because the query is NOT time sensitive
document.LotList.refresh();
}
</script>
GRID to TREND (BatchList to BatchTrend)

d. In reviewing the BatchTrend applet, you will note the trend chart
contains a lot of trended data making if difficult to read. To make it
easier for the users to read, we will first clear the data in the
BatchTrendQuery template. Enter the highlighted content below:
<td valign=top width="360">
<APPLET NAME=BatchTrend CODEBASE="/Illuminator/classes" CODE="iChart"
<PARAM NAME="QueryTemplate" VALUE="Training/BatchTrendQuery">
<PARAM NAME="DisplayTemplate" VALUE="Training/BatchTrendChart">
<PARAM NAME="Title" VALUE="Please Select a Batch">
<PARAM NAME="XAxisFontSize" VALUE="9">
<PARAM NAME="YAxisFontSize" VALUE="10">
<PARAM NAME="LegendFontSize" VALUE="10">
<PARAM NAME="ShowMouseTracking" VALUE="False">
</APPLET>
</td>
Page 130
SAP xMII Training
e. Now well enter the JavaScript function to drill-down from the

BatchList applet to the BatchTrend applet. Enter the highlighted
content below:
var TrendQuery = document.BatchTrend.getQueryObject();

LotQuery.setParam(1, selLot);
//get the selected BatchID, StartDate and EndDate
var selBatch = BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValueByName(BatchId);
var selStartDate =
BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValueByName(BatchStart);
var selEndDate = BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValueByName(BatchEnd);
//set the Param and Start and End Dates
TrendQuery.setParam(1,selBatch);
TrendQuery.setStartDate(selStartDate);
TrendQuery.setEndDate(selEndDate);
//do an update here because the query IS time sensitive
document.BatchTrend.updateChart(true);
}
</script>
f. You will note we have declared variables (var TrendQuery and var
Batchgrid) to make our code easier to enter and read. We have also set
our Param and captured both a StartDate and EndDate.
g. Next, well modify the Title of our BatchTrend to be more appropriate
for our selected batch. Enter the highlighted content below:
var TrendChart = document.BatchTrend.getChartObject();

LotQuery.setParam(1,selLot);
Page 131
SAP xMII Training

var selStartDate = BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValue(BatchStart);
var selEndDate = BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValue(BatchEnd);
//change the title on the chart
TrendChart.setTitle("Profile For "+selBatch);
}
</script>
GRID to SCOREBOARD (BatchList to OperatorName)

h. Similar to the BatchTrend applet, we will first clear the
OperatorScoreboardQuery template. Enter the highlighted content
below:
<td align=center width="50%">
<APPLET NAME=OperatorName CODEBASE="/Illuminator/classes"
CODE="iGrid" ARCHIVE="illum8.zip" WIDTH=145 HEIGHT=25 MAYSCRIPT>
<PARAM NAME="QueryTemplate" VALUE="Training/OperatorScoreboardQuery">
<PARAM NAME="DisplayTemplate" VALUE="Training/OperatorScoreboard">
</APPLET>
</td>
i. Now well enter the Script to drill-down from the BatchList to the
OperatorName applet. Enter the highlighted content below:
var TrendChart = document.BatchTrend.getChartObject();
var OperQuery = document.OperatorName.getQueryObject();
Page 132
SAP xMII Training

LotQuery.setParam(1,selLot);
var selStartDate =
BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValueByName(BatchStart);
var selEndDate = BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValueByName(BatchEnd);
//change the title on the chart
TrendChart.setTitle(Profile For +selBatch);
//change the operator grid query filter
OperQuery.setParam(1,selBatch);
//not time sensitive
document.OperatorName.refresh();
}
</script>
Page 133
SAP xMII Training
j. When our Drill-Down Scripting is complete, you should see something

similar to the following; Lets try it out!
Page 134
SAP xMII Training

SORTING by COLUMN HEADING
Our next Script will sort the columns of the BatchList applet as we click on the
Column Heading.
1. First, well add a parameter to the BatchList applet. Enter the highlighted
content below:
<td valign=top rowspan="2" width="378">
<APPLET NAME=BatchList CODEBASE="/Illuminator/classes" CODE="iGrid"
<PARAM NAME="DisplayTemplate" VALUE="Training/BatchListGrid">
<PARAM NAME="SelectionEvent" VALUE="UpdateDetails">
<PARAM NAME="ColumnSelectionEvent" VALUE="sortBatchList">
</APPLET>
</td>
2.
Next, well build the following JavaScript.
//it is a global var if declared outside a function

sortASC = true;
function sortBatchList() {
var BatchQuery = document.BatchList.getQueryObject();
//the selected column
var selCol = BatchGrid.getSelectedColumnName();
if (sortASC) {
BatchQuery.setSortExpr(selCol+ ASC);
sortASC = false;
}
else {
BatchQuery.setSortExpr(selCol+ DESC);
sortASC = true;
}
//not time sensitive
document.BatchList.refresh();
}
</script>
3.
Save the page.

SYNCHRONIZING MULTIPLE APPLETS
In this next Lab, well explore synchronizing multiple iChart applets. We will use
templates you have already created, but we will also need to create one new
Query template.
a. First, open FrontPage and create a new page called Trends.htm, insert a
2 row, 1 column table.
b. From the SAP xMII Administration menuopen the xMII Template Editor to
create our new query.
c. Select New Tag Query.
d. In the Data Source tab, select InSQLOleDB Server and History Mode.
e. In the Tag Query Details tab, select the four Yield Tags.
f. Test and Save in your training folder as InSQLYieldQuery.

Page 138
SAP xMII Training
q. From the HTML tab, find the YieldTrend applet and enter the following
parameters highlighted below:
<td>
<APPLET NAME="YieldTrend" WIDTH="640" HEIGHT="280" CODE="iChart"
codebase="/Illuminator/Classes" ARCHIVE="illum8.zip" MAYSCRIPT>
<PARAM NAME="QueryTemplate" VALUE="Training/InSQLYieldQueryQuery">
<PARAM NAME="DisplayTemplate" VALUE="Training/iChartLine">
<PARAM NAME="ShowTitle" VALUE="False">
<PARAM NAME="LegendFontSize" VALUE="10">
<PARAM NAME="XAxisFontSize" VALUE="10">

<PARAM NAME="ShowMouseTracking" VALUE="False">
<PARAM NAME="UpdateEvent" VALUE="syncYieldTrend">
<PARAM NAME="SelectionEvent" VALUE="syncPens">
</APPLET>
</td>
r. With the parameters added, we can start creating our JavaScript. Well
setup a few variables to reference our objects:
function syncYieldTrend() {
var SpeedChart = document.SpeedTrend.getChartObject();
var YieldChart = document.YieldTrend.getChartObject();
var SpeedQuery = document.SpeedTrend.getQueryObject();
var YieldQuery = document.YieldTrend.getQueryObject();
s. The next thing we need to do in our script is make sure the web page,
including all applets, is fully loaded before we allow any actions to
occur. To do this, enter the following highlighted content after the
variable declaration:
// make sure the applets have loaded
if(document.YieldTrend == null){
return;
}
if(document.SpeedTrend == null){
return;
}
if(YieldQuery == null){
return;
}
if(SpeedQuery == null){
return;
}
if(YieldChart == null){
return;
}
if(SpeedChart == null){
return;
}
}
</script>
Page 139
SAP xMII Training
t. Next well get the Start and End Dates from our YieldTrend applet.
return;
}
return;
}
return;
}
return;
}
return;
}
return;
}
// get the start and end times
var selStart = YieldQuery.getStartDate();
var selEnd = YieldQuery.getEndDate();
Page 140
SAP xMII Training
u. Now well sync the trend charts.

return;
}
return;
}
return;
}
return;
}
return;
}
return;
}
// get the start and end times
var selStart = YieldQuery.getStartDate();
var selEnd = YieldQuery.getEndDate();
// sync the charts
if(selStart != null && selEnd != null) {
// get and set the scaling settings
var zoomYMin = YieldChart.getYAxisZoomMin();
var zoomYMax = YieldChart.getYAxisZoomMax();
SpeedChart.setYAxisZoomMin(zoomYMin);
SpeedChart.setYAxisZoomMax(zoomYMax);
SpeedQuery.setEndDate(selEnd);
SpeedQuery.setStartDate(selStart);
// update the changes
document.SpeedTrend.updateChart(true);
}
}
</script>
Page 141
SAP xMII Training
v. Finally, with a new function, well sync the Tags focused on trend
charts.
function syncPens() {
//get and set the selected pen
var selPen = YieldChart.getSelectedPen();
SpeedChart.setSelectedPen(selPen);
//time sensitive query
document.SpeedTrend.updateChart(false);
}
</SCRIPT>
Your webpage should look like the following:
w. Save the webpage, Log in to xMII, and view your results.

Lab 16 Data Manipulation / Inline Transform

Purpose
The purpose of this lab is to explore some data manipulation techniques using SQL
queries and Inline Transforms.
Topics Covered
Using Aliases in a SQL Query
Inline Transforms
Procedure (Part I)
1. Create a new SQL query with the following settings: Server = Northwind,
Mode = Query.
2. Under the SQL Query Details tab select the [Order Details] and Products
tables and the following columns:
3. Join these tables on the ProductID with the following expression:

[Order Details].ProductID = Products.ProductID
Page 163
SAP xMII Training

4. Test this query and note the column headings, your test should look
something like this:
Page 164
SAP xMII Training

5. Now lets create some Aliases for these columns, using the Column Name
text box and the Add button add the following columns:
[Order Details].OrderID AS OrderNumber
Products.ProductName AS Product
[Order Details].UnitPrice AS PricePerUnit
*Note: There no spaces in the column names
6. Using the < button choose the columns that we are aliasing and move them
out of the Selected Columns box.
Page 165
SAP xMII Training

7. Using the Up button highlight each of our aliased columns and move them
to the correct positions.
8. Test the query and notice that the column names have changed.
Page 166
SAP xMII Training

9. Create a new column to calculate our total net price for each product.
Enter the following expression into the Column Name text box and add it to
the Selected Columns box:
[Order Details].Quantity*([Order Details].UnitPrice*(1-[Order Details].Discount)) AS
TotalNetPrice
10. Test the query.

11. Save the template in your Training Folder as TotalPriceQuery.
Page 167
SAP xMII Training

Inline Transform
Using an alias will allow you to do a calculation in a SQL type query. This
technique cannot be used in a TAG type query. To do a calculation in a tag query
we need to use an Inline Transform (Please note Inline Transforms can be used with
any query).
The Inline Transform gives the user the ability to assign a stylesheet to further
manipulate the data after it has been retrieved through a system connector.
Procedure (Part II)

1. Create a new Tag query, Server = Simulator, Mode = Current, Tags = L1Speed,
L2Speed, L3Speed, L4Speed.
2. We will be using the IllumCalculator.xsl stylesheet for our inline transform.
The instructor will show the stylesheet (see the screenshot below).
3. We can see that this stylesheet will accept a parameter named Expression.
4. In the tag query, under the Transform tab click the button and choose
the IllumCalculator.xsl to use for the transform.
Page 168
SAP xMII Training

5. Set Param #1 to the following: Parameter Name = expression, Parameter
Value = (L1Speed+L2Speed+L3Speed+L4Speed)/4.
6. Test the query. Notice a CalculatedValue column now appears in our

output.
7. To change the CalculatedValue column heading set the following for
Param #2 Parameter Name = CalcFieldName, Parameter Value =
AverageLineSpeed.
8. Test the Query.

9. Save the template in your Training folder as InlineQuery.

Lab 17 xMII Reports

Purpose
The purpose of this lab is to create an xMII Report (.irpt file). We will again be
using FrontPage 2003 as our web-authoring tool in conjunction with the
Lighthammer Wizard. The Reports component of SAP xMII enables dynamicallygenerated HTML content to be created to provide comprehensive production
reports combining data from multiple sources and multiple presentation formats
into a format available for display or printing.
Topics Covered
Using <SERVLET> tags to dynamically create content in a SAP xMII

Report.
Passing session variables between windows using the

setPropertyValue() method.
Calling a xMII Report directly from the browser address line.
Procedure
1. In FrontPage, the BatchOverview page that we created.
2. First well need to add a button to our web page that will open our xMII
Report. In HTML view, insert the following HTML at the bottom of the page:
(Insert before the </BODY> line).
<form>
<input type="button" value="Open My Lighthammer Report!" name="B1"
onClick="openReport()">
</form>
Page 171
SAP xMII Training
3. Create the openReport() function that our Report button calls onClick.
Insert the following into the JavaScript block at the top of the page: ( make
sure to insert between the <script> and </script> prompts).
function openReport() {
//set up alias for easy reference
//the selected batch
var selBatch = BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValue(1);
//batch start and end dates are hidden in the grid
var batchStart = BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValue(6);
var batchEnd = BatchGrid.getSelectedCellValue(7);
//check to make sure the user has selected a batch
if (selBatch != "") {
//set up session variables we can use in the Lighthammer Report
//(.irpt)
document.BatchList.setPropertyValue("BatchNo",selBatch);
document.BatchList.setPropertyValue("BatchStart",batchStart);
document.BatchList.setPropertyValue("BatchEnd",batchEnd);
//pop up a new window with the .irpt file
window.open("BatchDetail.irpt");
}
else {
//if no batch selected show a dialog box
alert(Please select a batch!!);
}
}
Page 172
SAP xMII Training

4. Create the actual SAP xMII Report (.irpt):
a. In FrontPage, create a New Page and save it as BatchDetail.irpt.
(Note: Make sure FrontPage doesnt add the .htm file extension at the
end!).
b. From the Tools menu, open the SAP xMII Object.

c. Select the Report Object Type.
d. In the Stylesheet box, browse for the following stylesheet:
http://localhost/Illuminator/Stylesheets/IllumRowsetTable.xsl
(Note: This stylesheet will truncate the <HTML> and <BODY> tags and
return only the HTML <TABLE> portion of the query)
e. Under the Parameters section add the following name-value pair:

Parameter Name
Parameter Value
FilterExpr
PlasticBottleBatchData.BatchID='{BatchNo}
(Note: BatchNo is one of the session variables we previously set in the

openReport() function. The {curly brackets} tell SAP xMII to dynamically
include the value, effectively allowing browser windows to talk to each
other)
f. Select the BatchListQuery template found in the Training folder.
g. Finally, select the CreateHTML button.

h. Switching to the HTML tab in FrontPage, you should see the
following code has been inserted:
Page 173
SAP xMII Training

<HR>
Lighthammer Content Here
<SERVLET NAME="Lighthammer">
<PARAM NAME="FilterExpr" VALUE="PlasticBottleBatchData.BatchID='{BatchNo}'">
<PARAM NAME="Content-Type" VALUE="text/xml">
<PARAM NAME="Stylesheet"
VALUE="http://localhost/Illuminator/Stylesheets/IllumRowsetTable.xsl">
</SERVLET>
<HR>
5. Next well add a trend chart GIF to our report:

a. In the Wizard, select the Graphic Object Type again, however, this
time select the GIF Output Format.
b. Select the BatchTrendQuery and BatchTrendChart templates.
c. Set the Dimensions of the GIF to Width: 370 and Height: 280.
d. Add the following Parameter name-value pairs:
Parameter Name
Parameter Value
StartDate
{BatchStart}
EndDate
{BatchEnd}
Title
Profile for {BatchNo}
ShowChart
True
** ShowChart is not in the Parameter list you need to type it in.
Page 174
SAP xMII Training
e. Select the CreateHTML button.

f. In the Code tab, your completed code should look something like
this:
<p><IMG
SRC="http://localhost/servlet/ChartServlet?Width=370&Height=280&QueryTemplate=Training/Batch
TrendQuery&DisplayTemplate=Training/BatchTrendChart&ContentType=image/gif&StartDate={BatchStart}&EndDate={BatchEnd}&Title=Profile for
{BatchNo}&ShowChart=True">
</p>
* Notice the <SERVLET NAME> is different. SAP xMII uses the

ChartServlet to create snap-shot images (GIF format) of the Java
Applets.
Page 175
SAP xMII Training

6. To complete the Report, lets add one more HTML table. This table will
provide a different view of the data in our trend chart GIF.
a. Again, from the SAP xMII Object select the Report Object Type.
b. In the Stylesheet box, browse for the following stylesheet:
http://localhost/Illuminator/Stylesheets/IllumRowsetTable.xsl
c. Under the Parameters section, Add the following name-value pairs:
Parameter Name
Parameter Value
FilterExpr
PlasticBottleTrendData.BatchNo='{BatchNo}
StartDate
{BatchStart}
EndDate
{BatchEnd}
d. Select the BatchTrendQuery template found in the Training folder.
e. Select the CreateHTML button.
Page 176
SAP xMII Training

7. The final HTML code of the Report should look like this:
<html>
<head>
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows1252">

</html>
Page 177
SAP xMII Training

8. Dont forget to save your Report file with the .irpt extension!
9. To test the Report, open your browser and load the BatchOverview page.
10. In the Batch grid, select a batch and hit the Report button. Your
BatchDetail.irpt should open in a separate window presenting the selected
data in a 1) Batch List table, 2) Batch Trend Chart GIF, and 3) Batch Trend
table.
Page 178
SAP xMII Training

Running A Report Without The Use Of Session Variables
The BatchDetail.irpt we just completed used the Java Applets setPropertyValue()
method to setup sessions variables (BatchNo, BatchStart, and BatchEnd). Those
variables were then used to dynamically pass values between the Java Applets and
the new browser window, creating the Report.
If Java Applets are not used within the web page, for example when using a simple
HTML form, Lighthammer CMS Reports can also be created without the use of
session variables. The following example examines how to create an Lighthammer
Report from within a form.
<FORM NAME="IllumReport"
ACTION="http://localhost/Training/BatchDetail.irpt?">
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>
BatchNo:
</TD>
<TD>
<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="BatchNo" VALUE="BATCH00001">
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>
BatchStart:
</TD>
<TD>
<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="BatchStart" VALUE="08/01/2003
07:00:00">
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD>
BatchEnd:
</TD>
<TD>
<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="BatchEnd" VALUE="08/01/2003
07:30:00">
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="SUBMIT" NAME="Open My Lighthammer
Report!">
</FORM>
The ability to run a report without the use of session variables is especially useful
when distributing data to devices that may not be Java-enabled such as hand-held
Page 179
SAP xMII Training

devices, web-phones, PDAs, etc. Using a hand-held device, a user could fill out a
form similar to the example, run a Lighthammer Report on Submit and have the
data they need where they need it without delay.

Lab 18 iCommand
Purpose
The purpose of this lab is to explore the use of iCommands. The iCommand allows
you to execute commands, such as SQL inserts, updates and deletes, without the
need to perform a form post. This makes the user experience much more like a
classic client server interface, without the re-loading of a web page.
Topics Covered
Using iCommand to make changes to an existing database
Using Command mode in a query template
Procedure
1. Create our queries:
a) From the Query Template Editor create a new SQL query.
b) From Data Source tab: Server=Northwind, Mode=Query.
c) Choose the SQL Query Details tab and select the Employees table
and the following columns:
d) Test and Save in your training folder as NorthwindEmployeeQuery.

Exercise C Applet / Webpage Creation

Part1
Purpose:
To explore the Custom Chart and its capabilities. To utilize the Parameters feature
in the query template.
Procedure:
1. Open the KPIQuery template that we have already created.
2. Change the filter expression currently KPIConfig.KPIName is equal to
Yield, we want to set it equal to Param.1. (Hint: use this syntax [Param.1])
3. Create a query to return just the KPI Names (Use SQL query, Server =
PlasticResin, Mode = Query, Table = KPIconfig).
4. Create a grid to display the KPI Names.
5. Using FrontPage and the SAP xMII Wizard create a webpage that looks
something like this:
The applet on the left uses the query and grid templates that we just
created, the applet on the right uses the KPIQuery and KPIChart that we
created in previous labs.
6. Save the webpage
Page 191
SAP xMII Training

Exercise C (continued) JavaScript
Part 2
Purpose:
Add JavaScript to a webpage that we created in the previous lab.
Task:
Add a selection event to our grid applet which will call a function to display the
requested information in the chart applet. When we select a KPI from the grid the
chart will display the data for that KPI.
Methods used:
getGridObject(), getChartObject(), getQueryObject(), getSelectedCellValue(int),
setParam(int, value), setTitle(string), refresh()
Procedure:
1. Add a SelectionEvent to our grid applet. The value will be the name of the
function that you will create.
2. Start your JavaScript block.
<SCRIPT Language="JavaScript">
3. Create a function.
function <name>() {
4. Create a variable to get the value from cell 1 of the selected row. (Use the
syntax: document.<applet name>.method.. Remember to end each of
your lines of code with a semi-colon).
var <variable name> =
5. Set Param.1 in the chart applet query template to the value from the
selected row (the variable that we just created).
6. Set the chart title to change with the selected KPI name.
7. Refresh the chart.
8. Remember to end you function with a curly brace }, and to end your
JavaScript block with </script>.

Exercise D Script Assistant
Purpose
The purpose of this lab is to utilize the xMII Script Assistant to generate javascript
for use on our Lighthammer applets.
Topics Covered
This lab will cover the following topic:
xMII Script Assistant
Procedure
1. Create a new SQL query with the following settings: Server = Northwind,
Mode = Query.
2. Under the SQL Query Details tab select the Customers table and the
following columns: CustomerID, CompanyName.
3. Test and Save in the training folder as CustIDQuery.

4. Create a new Grid template, keep all the default settings and save in the
training folder as DefaultGrid.
Page 193
SAP xMII Training

5. Create a new webpage with 2 applets on it. The Applet on the left will be a
grid containing the customer ID numbers and company names, name the
applet CustGrid. The applet on the right will display the order information
for the customer selected, name the applet OrdGrid. For the left applet use
the CustIDQuery and DefaultGrid for the right applet use CustOrderQuery
(already created, ask instructor for location) and DefaultGrid. Modify the
CustOrderQuery to return no data. Save as OrderInfoPage.htm - Your page
should look something like this:
We want to be able to click on a customer ID and populate the order information

grid with the order information for the selected customer. We need to write a
little javascript to do this. Follow the steps to create code using the Illuminator
Script Assistant.
6. From Microsoft FrontPage, Tools menu, choose xMII Script Assistant.
Page 194
SAP xMII Training

7. We need to create a Selection Event on the CustGrid applet. Under the
Target Applet drop-down choose CustGrid. Under the Target Event Dropdown choose Selected. The function name is created by the script
assistant.
We want to write a script to get the value from the first column of the selected
row (the customer ID) and set that value = Param.1 in the CustOrderQuery.
8. From the Applet drop-down choose CustGrid (we want to get the value from
this grid). From the Applet Method choose getGridObject(), and from the
Oject Method drop-down choose getSelectedCellValue(COLNUMBER). Click
the insert button. See figure on following page:
Page 195
SAP xMII Training

9. Since we want to get the value from column 1, edit the COLNUMBER to be 1.
10. Make this value a variable by adding var CID = in front of this line.
11. Now that we have the customer ID (variable CID), we want to set Param.1 in
the query part of the OrdGrid applet equal to it. Put the cursor on the next
line in the code window and from the drop-downs select the following:
Applet = OrdGrid, Applet Method = getQueryObject();, and Object Method =
setParam(INDEX, NEWVALUE). Click the Insert button.
12. Since we want to set Param 1, change INDEX to 1, and we are setting it equal
to the value from our customer grid (CID), so change NEWVALUE to CID.
Page 196
SAP xMII Training

13. Now refresh the OrdGrid applet: select OrdGrid from the Applet drop-down
and refresh(); from the Applet Method drop-down. Click the Insert button.
14. Click the Save Script button to save this script to our webpage.
15. Go to the HTML view of our webpage and notice the code the Script Assistant
inserted.
16. Save the page, open the page in a browser and test.

Tag = CylTemp1
Save As: PITempQuery
Save As: InSQLTempQuery
Save As: SimTempQuery
2. From the template editor select New and create an Aggregate query.
Page 199
SAP xMII Training

3. Set the following on the datasource tab, Server = AggregateConnector, Mode
= Query.
4. Under the Template Selection tab browse the Training folder and using the >
button select the PITempQuery, InSQLTempQuery, and SimTempQuery.
Choose an alias name if you want. These 3 templates should now appear in
the Aggregate Query Source Templates window. You can select up to 32
templates from which to aggregate data.
Page 200
SAP xMII Training

5. Choose the Aggregate Query Details tab. On this tab we will set a common
parameter for the 3 query templates.
6. From the Aggregate Query Source Param dropdown select Duration. The
aggregate query duration is defaulted to the last 60 minutes of data (just
like all queries).
7. From the Target Template dropdown we can choose *. This means we want
to do this for all the source queries.
8. From the Target Param dropdown select Duration. Click the Add button.
This will set the duration parameter in all the source queries to whatever the
Duration is set to in the aggregate query.
9. Test your query.
