Mozilla FireFox - how to add security certificate exception urls

If you visit a web site with a secure connection(https) and if the website's security certificate has some problem like the security certificate presented by the website was not issued by a trusted certificate authority or the security certificate has expired or is not yet valid, you will get an error page ( like below in IE ) with an option to continue to this website.

When this non secure page is loading, in Internet Explorer, you will get an option to specify whether you need to download the page content files like JS, CSS, Images,... But you will not get such an option in FireFox/Chrome and could see only the text data in this new non secure page.

If you are doing some local development with FireFox/Chrome and have such a situation, you might want to override this security restriction. FireFox provides some exception url list in secure certificates menu. Go to Options - Advanced - Encryption - View Certificates and click the exception list and add your url to get all content of the site irrespective of the security certificate issue.

How the ATG Order flow manages a transaction

See more about ATG Tx management @ http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.com/2012/05/atg-how-to-use-transaction-manager.html Most of the ATG Commerce form handlers extend atg.commerce.order.purchase.PurchaseProcessFormHandler. The transaction management pattern in order flow is implemented through this form handler’s beforeSet, afterSet, and handler methods. The transaction will be started @ beforeSet method and is ended @ afterSet method. In general, the design pattern for updating an order is as follows: Acquire lock-manager write lock on profile id from the /atg/commerce/order/LocalLockManager Begin Transaction Synchronize on the Order object.

ATG - basic concepts of ATG

Basic design decisions for a commerce search setup ( with an ATG Search view)

In this blog I would like to explain the basic set of configuration/design decisions needed to setup an ATG search project. Most of these design decisions are common for all Enterprise search applications. 1. Decide the searchable properties : This means the properties that the business want the user to search in the ecommerce platform. In ATG search these are configured as the text properties in the product-catalog-output-config.xml ( the definitionFile of the \atg\commerce\search\ProductCatalogOutputConfig). Usually the displayName of product/sku, displayName of department/category/sub-category, skuId, brandName are the properties configured as searchable. 2. Decide the search refinement properties or the faceted properties : After a user search for a keyword, search refinement is the next step done to filter his results. ATG supports the search refinement using the Faceted Search concept. Read more about facted search @...
