The frevvo.war file contains a web.xml with branding parameters. In the frevvo-tomcat bundle, frevvo.war is located in: <frevvo-home>\tomcat\webapps - when the war file is unzipped to a temporary directory, the web.xml file will be found in <tmp>\WEB-INF. Refer to Installation Tasks for the steps to repackage frevvo.war after parameters in web.xml have been editiededited.For example,

Any parameter in web.xml can be duplicated in frevvo.xml and the value in frevvo.xml takes precedence over the value in web.xml. If you plan to override the web.xml context parameter values and you are using the frevvo Tomcat bundle, we suggest doing so in frevvo.xml. This keeps all your modified parameters in one place and makes it easy to upgrade frevvo to newer releases. |
Set branding parameters at container level
If you choose to brand at your web container level, note the web configuration changes at the container level take precedence over (override) those in the frevvo.war web.xml file. Again using Tomcat as an example:
- Open the file: <frevvo-home>\tomcat\conf\Catalina\localhost\frevvo.xml.
- Create a parameter with the same name as you see in frevvo.war's web.xml file. For instance, for the logo image:
Code Block |
---|
<Parameter name="frevvo.logo.url" value="<url to your image>" override="false"/> |
These are the brandable parameters and their defaults:
Parameter | Description | Default |
---|---|---|
frevvo.home.url | Home page for the Company Logo link | ${context.path} |
frevvo.logo.url | URL to the Company Logo image. Also applies to Spaces | ${context.path}/images/bright/TransparentLogo-NoBeta.png |

xml file
Follow these steps to add/modify context parameters in the frevvo.xml file. If you are using tomcat, making your configuration changes here, will make it easier when you upgrade :
- Stop if it is running.
- Navigate to <frevvo-home>\tomcat\conf\catalina\localhost\frevvo.xml.
- Open the file with a text editor.
- The installation tasks listed below will reference the frevvo.xml and web.xml files when appropriate. You can configure anything in frevvo.xml that you can configure in web.xml. When you add parameters to the file, use the same syntax as the ones already there. Here is an example of a parameter to control the Maximum Size of Attachments that users can upload.
Code Block |
---|
<Parameter name="frevvo.attachment.maxsize" value="10485760" override="false"/> |
5. Save the file after all your changes are made. Restart .
Modifying the web.xml file
The web.xml file is included in the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\webapps\frevvo.war. The frevvo.war must be unzipped/rezipped after modifications have been made as outlined in the steps below:
- Stop if it is running.
- Unpack the frevvo.war file to a temporary location of your choice: e.g. c:\tmp\frevvo-war. Change the file extension from .war to .zip if necessary.
- Edit c:\tmp\frevvo-war\WEB-INF\web.xml.
- Make the desired configuration changes - see appropriate sections of this page for information on specific parameters. Save the changes to the web.xml file.
Rezip all the files in the c:\tmp\frevvo-war directory, even the ones you did not edit — if you change directories or zip them differently, Live Forms may not load correctly:
This is the correct structure for the frevvo.war zipfile.
Make sure you create the zipfile with the directory structure as shown in the image above. It is an easy mistake to include the containing directory in the zipfile. If you do this, Live Forms may not load correctly. Zip will often give your zipfile a .zip extension. Make sure you change this to a .war extension.
- Copy the updated frevvo.war file to <frevvo-home>tomcat\webapps.
- Restart your server.
Consider the frevvo.menu.bar parameter, if added to the web.xml file, prevents the menu bar from being rendered. Any of the menu items (Downloads,Templates, Help, Docs, Forum, Contact) can be removed from the menu bar via configuration parameters in the web.xml or frevvo.xml files. If all of the menu items are disabled, the menu bar should be removed.
Code Block |
---|
<context-param>
<param-name>frevvo.menu.bar</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
<description>Show menu bar. Set to false if all menu items are disabled</description>
</context-param> |
The parameter in the frevvo.xml file would be:
Code Block |
---|
<Parameter "frevvo.menu.bar" value="false" override="false"/> |

Set branding parameters at container level
If you choose to brand at your web container level, note the web configuration changes at the container level take precedence over (override) those in the frevvo.war web.xml file. Again using Tomcat as an example:
- Open the file: <frevvo-home>\tomcat\conf\Catalina\localhost\frevvo.xml.
- Create a parameter with the same name as you see in frevvo.war's web.xml file. For instance, for the logo image:
Code Block |
---|
<Parameter name="frevvo.logo.url" value="<url to your image>" override="false"/> |
The override="false" prevents the values in the configuration parameters in frevvo.xml from being overridden.
These are the brandable parameters and their defaults:
Parameter | Description | Default |
---|---|---|
frevvo.home.url | Home page for the Company Logo link | ${context.path} |
frevvo.logo.url | URL to the Company Logo image. Also applies to Spaces | ${context.path}/images/bright/TransparentLogo-NoBeta.png |

Hiding Url Menu Items
The frevvo.war file contains a web.xml with branding parameters. In the frevvo-tomcat bundle frevvo.war is located in: <frevvo-home>\frevvo\tomcat\webapps - when the war file is unzipped, the web.xml file will be found in <frevvo-home>\WEB-INF. Refer to Installation Tasks for the steps to repackage frevvo.war after parameters in web.xml have been editied. Certain menu items are links to external Urls. Examples are Downloads, Forum, Docs etc. It is possible to completely remove any of these menu items by deleting the URL or setting the appropriate property. If no URL exists the menu item will be hidden.These parameters are found in the web.xml file.
For example, if you want to hide the Downloads menu item:
Code Block |
---|
<context-param>
<param-name>frevvo.downloads.menu</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
<description>No Downloads menu</description>
</context-param> |
For example if you wish to hide the Docs menu item, edit the frevvo.docs.url and delete the content:
Code Block |
---|
<context-param>
<param-name>frevvo.docs.url</param-name>
<param-value></param-value>
<description>No URL set will hide the Docs menu and top link</description>
</context-param> |
These parameters in the frevvo.xml file would be:
code
The look & feel of the Live Forms application is controlled via css. frevvo.css.url gives you the ability to add your own style sheet if you need to customize the look & feel of the page itself such as the background colors and sizes of the items on the pages. You can use a tool such as firebug to learn how the page is styled with css and thus how to override the default styling.
Forms
The Powered by frevvo™ logo can be customized via the frevvo.poweredby.markup branding parameter. If this branding parameter is an empty string no logo will appear on any form. The logo can still be turned off on any given form via the Show Logo form property.
Hiding Form/Doc Action Wizards
The Live Forms designer form and doc action buttons can be customized via the web.xml configuration file. Web.xml is contained in the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\webapps frevvo.war. It is located in <frevvo-home>\WEB-INF\web.xml after the frevvo.war is unzipped to a temporary directory. Refer to Installation Tasks for the steps to unzip and repackage frevvo.war after parameters in web.xml have been edited. By default all wizards are visible in the form & doc action buttons page. To hide a wizard, remove it from the associated context parameter below.

This keeps all your modified parameters in one place and makes it easy to upgrade frevvo to newer releases. |
Hiding Data Sources/Palette
Hiding Data Sources on the designer screen can be accomplished by adding the ?_method=post&edit=true and &showDS=false parameter to the edit link of a form. Create the URL using the steps below:
Then copy and paste it in another tab of the browser. You have to add it to the Edit link, you cannot click Edit first and then add this parameter to the link that appears in your browser.
- Click the Share icon of a form on the Forms Home page and copy the "Raw Url" of the form into another tab of your broswer.
- Add the "?_method=post&edit=true" parameter to the end of the link.
- Add the "&showDS=false" parameter to hide Data Sources or "&showPalette=false" to hide the control palette.
- When the form displays, either the Data Source section or the palette will be hidden.
Here are examples of the URl:
test.wlselb.frevvo.com/frevvo/web/tn/nancy.com/user/designer/app/_EVHJUIP-EeG1bcc-I8Sq_w/formtype/_cm3dAIP-EeG1bcc-I8Sq_w?_method=post&edit=true&showDS=false
test.wlselb.frevvo.com/frevvo/web/tn/nancy.com/user/designer/app/_EVHJUIP-EeG1bcc-I8Sq_w/formtype/_cm3dAIP-EeG1bcc-I8Sq_w?_method=post&edit=true&showPalette=false
Customizing the HTML Page Title Prefix
You can use the frevvo.page.title context parameter in the frevvo.xml file to change the HTML prefixes of the titles of all Live Form pages. The Preview Page in the designer will display with value of the the frevvo.page. title parameter - <browser name>. For example, to change the HTML page prefix to a company name, follow the steps below:
...
/termsDL | ||
frevvo.contact.email | Contact Us email address | mailto:info@frevvo.com |
frevvo.downloads.menu | Show Downloads menu item | true |
frevvo.templates.menu | Show Templates menu item | true |
frevvo.css.url | Custom Stylesheet URL | |
frevvo.poweredby.markup | Logo in form footer when the Logo property set | Powered by Live Forms™ |
frevvo.page.title | HTML title prefix for all Live Form pages | frevvo |
frevvo.menu.bar | Show menu bar | true |
frevvo.oem.branding.class | Names css class applied to body of UI pages | empty |
frevvo.certificate.signature | Ignore SSL Security when posting to an https endpoint | empty |
Branding External Urls
Notice that several of the parameters use Url templates. For example, frevvo.help.url references a help file named designer.xsl that is part of frevvo.war and is located in the directory <frevvo-home>\WEB-INF\xsl\main\help after the war file has been unzipped . You may wish to bundle up a replacement help file and store your replacement file in that same directory. In that case you will keep the templates ${context.path}${servlet.path}/static that are part of the default path and append your own help file name. It can be an html file, myAppHelp.html. Or if your help is an external file you can replace the entire default value ${context.path}${servlet.path}/static/help/designer with a Url such has http://mycompany/myapp/help.html. Refer to Installation Tasks for the steps to repackage frevvo.war after parameters in designer.xsl have been editied.
Hiding Url Menu Items
The frevvo.war file contains a web.xml with branding parameters. In the frevvo-tomcat bundle frevvo.war is located in: <frevvo-home>\frevvo\tomcat\webapps - when the war file is unzipped, the web.xml file will be found in <frevvo-home>\WEB-INF. Refer to Installation Tasks for the steps to repackage frevvo.war after parameters in web.xml have been editied. Certain menu items are links to external Urls. Examples are Downloads, Forum, Docs etc. It is possible to completely remove any of these menu items by deleting the URL or setting the appropriate property. If no URL exists the menu item will be hidden.These parameters are found in the web.xml file.
For example, if you want to hide the Downloads menu item:
Code Block |
---|
<context-param>
<param-name>frevvo.downloads.menu</param-name>
<param-value>false</param-value>
<description>No Downloads menu</description>
</context-param> |
For example if you wish to hide the Docs menu item, edit the frevvo.docs.url and delete the content:
Code Block |
---|
<context-param>
<param-name>frevvo.docs.url</param-name>
<param-value></param-value>
<description>No URL set will hide the Docs menu and top link</description>
</context-param> |
These parameters in the frevvo.xml file would be :
Code Block |
---|
<Parameter name="frevvo.downloads.menu" value="false" override="false"/>
<Parameter name="frevvo.docs.url" value="" override="false"/> |
The look & feel of the Live Forms application is controlled via css. frevvo.css.url gives you the ability to add your own style sheet if you need to customize the look & feel of the page itself such as the background colors and sizes of the items on the pages. You can use a tool such as firebug to learn how the page is styled with css and thus how to override the default styling.
Forms
The Powered by frevvo™ logo can be customized via the frevvo.poweredby.markup branding parameter. If this branding parameter is an empty string no logo will appear on any form. The logo can still be turned off on any given form via the Show Logo form property.
Hiding Form/Doc Action Wizards
The Live Forms designer form and doc action buttons can be customized via the web.xml configuration file. Web.xml is contained in the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\webapps frevvo.war. It is located in <frevvo-home>\WEB-INF\web.xml after the frevvo.war is unzipped to a temporary directory. Refer to Installation Tasks for the steps to unzip and repackage frevvo.war after parameters in web.xml have been edited. By default all wizards are visible in the form & doc action buttons page. To hide a wizard, remove it from the associated context parameter below.

This keeps all your modified parameters in one place and makes it easy to upgrade frevvo to newer releases. |
Hiding Data Sources/Palette
Hiding Data Sources on the designer screen can be accomplished by adding the ?_method=post&edit=true and &showDS=false parameter to the edit link of a form. Create the URL using the steps below:
Then copy and paste it in another tab of the browser. You have to add it to the Edit link, you cannot click Edit first and then add this parameter to the link that appears in your browser.
- Click the Share icon of a form on the Forms Home page and copy the "Raw Url" of the form into another tab of your broswer.
- Add the "?_method=post&edit=true" parameter to the end of the link.
- Add the "&showDS=false" parameter to hide Data Sources or "&showPalette=false" to hide the control palette.
- When the form displays, either the Data Source section or the palette will be hidden.
Here are examples of the URl:
test.wlselb.frevvo.com/frevvo/web/tn/nancy.com//u/a700f434-969e-432a-9779-655f9fc30259/app/_EVHJUIP-EeG1bcc-I8Sq_w/formtype/_cm3dAIP-EeG1bcc-I8Sq_w?_method=post&edit=true&showDS=false

Customizing the HTML Page Title Prefix
You can use the frevvo.page.title context parameter in the frevvo.xml file to change the HTML prefixes of the titles of all Live Form pages. The Preview Page in the designer will display with value of the the frevvo.page. title parameter - <browser name>. For example, to change the HTML page prefix to a company name, follow the steps below:
- Ensure that is not running.
- Navigate to <frevvo-home>\tomcat\conf\catalina\localhost. Open the frevvo.xml with a text editor.
- Add the information below to the frevvo war setting section of the file
Code Block |
---|
<Parameter name="frevvo.page.title" value="Company Name" override="false"/> |
4. Save the file and restart .
Adding a Custom Button to the Designer Tool Bar
Adding a custom button to the tool bar can be accomplished with the frevvo.form.edit.toolbar.buttons context parameter in the web.xml file. The value of the parameter is a JSON string that determines which buttons are visible in the toolbar. This context parameter is not optional - if it is not present there will be no buttons in the designer toolbar.
Here is an example of how to edit the web.xml file to add the configuration parameter to add a custom Test Form button to the toolbar. The comment shows example JSON to add a new button. You can specify an id, a class and a title. Be sure to rezip the frevvo.war file, as described above, when the changes are complete.
Code Block |
---|
<context-param>
<param-name>frevvo.form.edit.toolbar.buttons</param-name>
<param-value>{"buttons":[{"id":"e-preview-form"},{"id":"e-edit-form"},{"id":"e-rules-form"},{"id":"e-formactions-form"},{"id":"e-docactions-form"},{"id":"cancel-top"},{"id":"commit-top"}]}</param-value>
<!--

<param-value>{"id":"e-test-form","class":"e-test-form e-toolbar-icon","title":"click to test the form"}</param-value>
-->
<description>Which edit mode toolbar buttons are rendered in the form designer</description>
</context-param> |
This will generate something like this:
Code Block |
---|
<a id="{id}" title="{title}" class="{class}" href="#" onclick="return CustomWizard.show('{id}');"></a> |
CustomWizard.show(id) calls your code. Make sure it is defined. The FrevvoCustomActions, as shown below, is an example:
Code Block |
---|
var CustomWizard = {
show: function (id) {
if (parent.FrevvoCustomActions)
parent.FrevvoCustomActions.doAction (id);
else if (FrevvoCustomActions)
FrevvoCustomActions.doAction (id);
}
} |
Customizing Runtime Messages and Labels in the Designers
You can modify the text of runtime messages and customize the labels in the Form/flow designers by changing string name/value pairs in the default file found in the frevvo.war. You can customize the Form designer and most labels (but not all) in the Flow designer.
The English version of the modified strings appear on the UI once is restarted.
For example, if you wanted to:
- Change the text of the "Access denied. Authentication required" message that the user sees when accessing a form that requires logging into (Public in tenant).
- Customize the labels of the Palette, Custom, Properties and Data Sources sections of the Forms designer.
The default file in the frevvo.war contains all of the runtime and designer strings that can be customized. Both requirements listed above can be accomplished by modifying this file.
Follow these steps:
- Stop if it is running.
- Navigate to <frevvo-home>\tomcat\conf\catalina\localhost. Open webapps directory.
- Copy the frevvo.xml with a text editor.
- Add the information below to the frevvo war setting section of the file

- Edit c:\tmp\frevvo-war\WEB-INF\data\locales\default.
To change the text of the "Access denied. Authentication required" message locate the Error messages section in the file. Notice that the strings on the left side of the '=' have spaces escaped with the '\' character. This is needed so do not remove that. The escape character is not needed on the right side of the '='. Enter the text that you want on the right side of the '='

- Save the changes to the default file.
Rezip all the files in the c:\tmp\frevvo-war directory, even the ones you did not edit — if you change directories or zip them differently, Live Forms may not load correctly:
This is the correct structure for the frevvo.war zipfile.
Make sure you create the zipfile with the directory structure as shown in the image above. It is an easy mistake to include the containing directory in the zipfile. If you do this, Live Forms may not load correctly. Zip will often give your zipfile a .zip extension. Make sure you change this to a .war extension.
- Copy the updated frevvo.war file to <frevvo-home>tomcat\webapps.
Restart your server.

frevvo.certificate.signature context parameter
When a form's doc action is configured to post to an https endpoint, you can ignore ssl security using the frevvo web.xml param parameter frevvo.certificate.signature. Services that accepts https and do not have a security certificate setup might generate an error like this:
...
You can tell frevvo to ignore this error using the frevvo.certificate.signature context parameter . This should work with services that have self-signed certificates that aren't installed in jvm certificate file and with certificates from a security authority. Add this context parameter to the web.xml file included in the frevvo.war zipfile. See Installation Tasks Modifying the web.xml file for the instructions to unzip and rezip the war after modifications to the web.xml are completed or add the parameter to frevvo.xml.

Check Database Encoding
The parameters, frevvo.db.check.encoding and frevvo.db.encoding.error, have been added to the web.xml file included in the <frevvo-home>\tomcat\webapps\frevvo.war. These parameters can be used to specify how to handle a check of database encoding and how to display the error if it is not UTF8. They are particularly useful for OEMs who may want to skip the fatal error by setting the frevvo.db.check.encoding parameter to false.
...
- Unzip the frevvo.war as explained here. Rezip it after the modifications are made.
- The parameters are located in the Database Schema checking on startup section:
