Example Notification Templates

The following examples show templates configured to display a notification message in a pop-up dialog or as a page in the user’s browser. The final two examples show templates configured to redirect users to an alternative URL.

Pop-up dialog

JavaScript is used to display the notification message in a pop-up dialog. Note that the default template blocktemplate.html uses this method and is shown below.

<html>
	<head>
	<script type="text/javascript">
	window.alert("%scriptmessagetitle%\n\n%scriptmessagetousers%");
	</script>
	</head>
	<body></body>
</html>

HTML file

The notification displays as a page in the user’s browser. In this example, the message content is defined directly in the template.

<html>
	<head>
	<title>Unipraxis Advisory</title>
	</head>
	<body>
	<p>This Web site breaches corporate Internet usage guidelines.</p>
	</body>
</html>

HTML file with variables

The notification displays as a page in the user’s browser. In this example, variables are used to specify the message content. Note the use of [set the pre variable for your book] tags in the message body to preserve line breaks.

<html>
	<head>
	<Title>%messagetitle%</Title>
	</head>
	<body>
	[set the pre variable for your book]%messagetousers%</pre>
	</body>
</html>

Redirection to alternative URL

In this example, an alternative URL is defined directly in the template.

You must include the http:// prefix in the URL to ensure that it is interpreted correctly by the browser. No other <title> or <body> text is needed.

<html>
	<head>
	<Title></Title>
	<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL='http://www.hr.unipraxis.com'"/>
	</head>
	<body></body>
</html>

Redirection to alternative URL

In this example, a variable is to specify the alternative URL.

In this situation, the <prohibitmessage> tag in the NBA policy or the ‘Message To Users’ setting CA DLP user policy must contain a URL that includes the http:// prefix.

<html>
	<head>
	<Title></Title>
	<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;URL='%messagetousers%'"/>
	</head>
	<body></body>
</html>
