Creating a UIX XML Page with Header, Footer, and Navigation Elements

Using the UIX XML page wizard, you can generate a single UIX XML page with the basic UIX XML page framework included for data providers, page layout, and event handlers, as well as the following header, footer, and navigation elements:

Page title
Corporate branding
Product branding
Navigation (tabs, global headers, and global buttons)
Privacy information
Copyright information

After creating this file, you can add UIX components to build your user interface.

To create a UIX XML page with header, footer, and navigation elements:

In the Application Navigator, select the project in which you want to create the new UIX XML page.
Choose File | New to open the New Gallery.
In the Categories tree, expand Web Tier and select ADF UIX.
If Web Tier is not visible in the Categories tree, select All Technologies in the Filter by dropdown list.
In the Items list, double-click UIX XML Page with Header, Footer, and Navigation.
The UIX XML Page Wizard appears. For detailed help about any of the steps, press F1 or click Help from within the wizard.
Follow the steps on each wizard page, and click Finish when you are done.

When you finish, your project contains a basic UIX XML file with the file name and elements you specified. You can customize the file using the UIX Visual Editor or the schema-driven XML Editor. For example in the UIX Visual Editor, you can drag and drop components from the Component Palette, or right-click on a component or empty named children box for a choice of components to insert.

Note: If you want to create a number of UIX XML pages with similar header, footer, and navigation elements, you can first create a UIX XML template (UIT) file with the elements and then generate all the UIX XML pages based on your template.
