tabs provider
Hi,
Can i disable the "Option", "Content" and "Layout" button at the top right corver of the desktop everytime i click on the tab that i added on the desktop? I would like "myfrontPage" (default tab) to have those 3 buttons. But when i click on customized tabs that i created, the 3 buttons will have to be gone because i do not wish my user to change the layout setting of the channels for customized tabs. Is it possible to do that? Please advise.Thanks.

HI,
The Options, Content, And Layout "Buttons/Links" are contained in the menubar.html file in your default templates directory. (/etc/opt/SUNWips/desktop/default/iwtDesktop). you can either edit the menubar.html file to disable those links, or you can also edit userTemplate.html and remove the "[tag:menubar]" entries. You can then perhaps use the URL scraper to create a custom content provider that will have these buttons/links. (see menubar.html for correct URL invocation). This custom content provider can then be added to the frontpage tab, using the admin console, and seeing that the user cannot edit the default frontpage tab, they should be protected. You can also use policy in the admin console to set your custom "button" provider not to allow remove,minimize,detach,edit. Thus the user will only be presented with the customize,content and layout options on his default frontpage, and not for the customised tabs.
I hope this helps.
