Pop Up Message in OBIEE 11g

Popup is a general thing for us as we see a several popup messages coming when we are browsing over the net . This is a general way of advertising by not disturbing the base page. We can even say it as information window where it will display a window with a proper message.

Even we can use the same popup to show information on OBIEE dashboards. This might come handy if you want to display a general information about a dashboard page.

For instance lets consider a scenario of a Company having the Sales Dashboard for "Late Orders".

The Late Orders dashboard does not contain Internal Sales Orders of company and you want to display this information when a user comes to that Page. We can simply display it as a note ,but how many users will actually read it. There is always a chance that we miss to read NOTES.

But if we display it as a popup user will definitely read the message.

How to setup popup:

Add a text section to the dashboard. and write the below code in the text and save.


              <body onload="obi_popup()">
              <h1>Welcome to the world of BI</h1>
              </body>

Run the dashboard and you will see the popup.
