Yes,

Check the http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/4.3.3/Developer/UseHTML

You can use the ServerSideInclude Module if HTML is uploaded to $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/yourapp/appserver/static folder or Iframe module if 3rd party website.

Nope. I'm getting this error message: Splunk cannot find the "test1" view.

See if this much works:





1234.html


Make sure you note attribute names are case sensitive and all modules must have a layoutPanel location.

Currently I'm just looking to make this view work with the html, because later i will be adding image maps and charts and things, and i need to use html to make hotspots work.

I actually did see that, I currently have an application.css for my app, but for this view i wanted to refrence a seperate css page to the html because the page says " If you've added a web resource, import the CSS file into your HTML."
Thank you again for your help!

Ah, you're including your own style sheet. Did you restart Splunk web?
Have you checked out:

http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/4.3.3/Developer/UseCSS

Testing your code now.

Can you post your XML here? As well as your HTML file?

Still Nothing.
And its strange because written here ( http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/4.3.3/Developer/ModuleReference#ServerSideInclude ) it says that "if the resource can't be found, a simple message inline is displayed."
only... I am not getting any error message at all. simply nothing is showing up

I found the doc you were referring to (your link didnt work): http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/4.3.3/Developer/UseHTML

I followed all the steps, but ServerSideinclude doesn't seem to be working...
I added a separate html page to my $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/yourapp/appserver/static folder...
then added a xml page in SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps//default/data/ui/views/.xml with:


foo.html

and still im getting nothing.

I've tried and re tried, really not sure of whats going on.

In the advanced XML view use:



foo.html


It looks in the appserver/static folder by default.

Using the Server side include module, how do i actually link to the html doc? I placed it into the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/yourapp/appserver/static folder. Just not sure what line of code to actually write to reference this folder.

Thank you in advance.
