Overview

The Web Page Version 5.02 portlet allows the user to display and use a favorite page from the Internet. The Web Page portlet requires the user to specify a single URL by editing the portlet's properties.

Some Web pages are not coded to behave cooperatively when opened within another frame. Therefore, users of the Web Page portlet may find that some pages they specify take over the browser window or display an error message such as 'top.indexFrame.window' is not an object. If this happens, edit the portlet through the portal administration interface, remove the offending URL from the defaultURL configuration parameter, and warn users not to specify that URL in the portlet's edit properties.
