At ILUG I attended Paul Calhoun’s excellent session “Using XML and RDBMS Data Sources in XPages”. The XML element of the session built upon articles Paul had contributed to The XPages Blog and the Lotus Notes and Domino Application Development Wiki. Over the last few days I’ve been experimenting with various methods of using XML …

XPages suited for this because: We wanted the available documents to change depending on selections, …

To support our customers who are investigating the benefits of XPages we have written a white paper to give a balanced assessment of the benefits …

Following on from the tip I gave at the end of March, as well as view icons/action button icons accessible from the icons folder and images that come with the oneuiv2 themes, I recently also wanted to use images that co with the core oneui theme, that are in the java subfolder of /domino. As …
