Table E-7 Database Portlet Substitution Tags

Substitution Tag	Value Set By …
#BODY#	The database portlet
#OWNER#	The Portal schema that owns the database portlet
#IMAGE_PREFIX#	The Oracle Portal images directory as specified in the `plsql.conf` configuration file
#USER#	The user name of the user who is currently logged on
#USER.FULLNAME#	The full name of the user who is currently logged on The full name includes the user's first, middle, and last names.
#USER.FIRSTNAME#	The first name of the user who is currently logged on
#USER.MIDDLENAME#	The middle name of the user who is currently logged on
#USER.LASTNAME#	The last name (surname) of the user who is currently logged on
#VERSION#	The version of this installation of Oracle Portal
#HELPSCRIPT#	The JavaScript function used to open a window to display the Oracle Portal online help If you include #HELPLINK# in your template, you should also include this tag.
#DIRECTION#	The direction of character layout (left-to-right or right-to-left) This value is set based on the language selected for the portal. Use it in conjunction with portals using bi-directional languages. For example, using PL/SQL (between <oracle></oracle> tags), you can set up if statements that query the current text direction and, based on the result, set the alignment of template elements using the #ALIGN_LEFT# and #ALIGN_RIGHT# tags.
#ALIGN_LEFT#	Align content to the left
#ALIGN_RIGHT#	Align content to the right
#TITLE#	The portlet's display name as assigned through the portal #HEADING# and #TITLE# render the same content. One way to use the #title# substitution tag is to pass it as a parameter that tells you the page a user was on when he, for example, clicked your "Contact Us" link. For example: <HEAD> <TITLE>#TITLE#</TITLE> #PAGE.STYLE# #PAGE.BASE# </HEAD> <Body leftMargin="0" rightMargin="0" topMargin="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" class="PageBG"> #BODY# <a href= "http://www.<page_that_takes_URL_Param.com?currPage=#TITLE#">Contact Us</a> </BODY> </HTML>
#HEADING#	The portlet's display name as assigned through the portal #HEADING# and #TITLE# render the same content.
#HELPLINK#	Portlet help URL
#HOMELINK#	Portal home URL
#FRAMELINK#	Portlet frame URL
