Hi, I encounter a requirement, and need to do a Proof Of Concept.
The requirement is that in the page ,I click one button ,and the page will go to another system,and display some data.
In WPF ,is there some built-in builder to do it?
And how to deal with Signal Sign On or other authentication problem.

Nowdays ,I have not gotten the detail information of the other system I will invoke.
I just use an iframe.

And I have no idea about how to use the Frame Builder.

If you want the browser to go directly to the other site in a section that is contained by a Factory Model, then IFrame is the way to go. You can just use the HTML builder to create the HTML you want -- it can include indirect references in it like you would use anywhere else in Portlet Factory.

However, the Portlet Factory centric approach to this sort of problem would be to fetch the data on the server, which gives you the opportunity to manage the presentation of the data. If the other system already presents (or can be convinced to present) the data as a REST service, then you can access it using the REST Service Call builder (or, better still, via WSDL). We provide builder sets for accessing a number of back end systems, as well as instructions for making your own builders to access proprietary back end systems.

I developed a IFrame builder like the builder on this page http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/pfwiki.nsf/dx/iframe-builder-.
So I can reuse it in lots of models.
