I'm experimenting with LifeRay as an internal knowledge base, and a chunk of that content would be code/sql snippets.
What can be done in the area of code coloring / formatting, etc... is there a LifeRay plugin that adds this kind of capability? I did some searching and couldn't find anything.
E.g.:

Thanks.
Liferay can be configured to use several editors, such as TinyMCE or CKEditor. This configuration is usually done by setting properties in the main portal-ext.properties file, that extends the embedded portal.properties :
# You can configure individual JSP pages to use a specific implementation of
# the available WYSIWYG editors: ckeditor, ckeditor_bbcode, ckeditor_creole,
# fckeditor, liferay, simple, tinymce, or tinymce_simple.
#
editor.wysiwyg.default=ckeditor
(...)
editor.wysiwyg.portal-web.docroot.html.portlet.journal.edit_article_content.jsp=ckeditor
It can be used to create a new jsp especially designed to allow the activation of a dedicated syntax editor.
Liferay uses CodePress as a XML editor for some of its configuration, that could be a good start : look at
liferay-portal-6.1.0/tomcat-6.0.29/webapps/ROOT/html/js/editor/codepress/index.html as a start.

How can we handle pages with different designs when there is a pdf rewriter that is inbuild with Adobe Experience manager.
I know that there is a file page2fo.xsl which automatically generates pdf and we need to specify the rules in page2fo.xsl. But the website im working on is not just one design it is in different countries and different languages with their own designs.
In this situation how can we convert the html to pdf by just giving url as .pdf.
Do we need to write xsl for every design>?
Do we have any mechanism that will handle this situation in Adobe Experience Manager that comes with Apache FOP?
If there is any mechanism can you please give the sample of it to handle different designs?
I had a look into PDF generation with the page2fo.xsl and was even in contact with Adobe support regarding this. There can be only one file for all your designs as it is hardcoded in the final XSLTTransformer service running in OSGi. You can only overlay the configuration "/libs/cq/config/rewriter/pdf" with your custom one below apps, e.g.
"/apps/cq/config/rewriter/pdf" where you can reference a different page2fo.xsl thatn the foundation one. To support multiple designs in your XSL I would suggest a template matching the cq:designPath of your page. The only problem here you would need this property on every page and not rely on the inheritance like in the Edit UI.
Something along the line of:
<xsl:template match="*[contains(#cq:designPath,'/etc/designs/yourdesign')]">
<xsl:apply-templates select="yourdesign"/>
</xsl:template>
But I can guarantee you, it will be a mess and hard to maintain as you really only have this single file for all your custom XSLTTransformation.
I think in your case I would consider using another PDF Framework:
PDFBox from Apache. I made a PoC with it and it is painful for PDF creation as you need to know PDF Syntax
DynamicPDF: I was able to rewrite my PDFBox PoC within 2 days and even add features. So I would recommend it. You can download an evaluation copy and there are many examples around.
I want to change the look and feel(ui customization) of Jenkins. Also I would like to add new views(say like new html pages or web pages) with navigation to the required jenkins pages etc.
Please let me know if any single plugins will help me to do so.Any relevant information(how ever generic) will be very helpful.
Any suggestions or links or tutorials is also appreciated.
PS:- Pretty new to jenkins.The inputs from here will help me to add more details to the questions.
I am looking for documents or tutorials that specify Skinning Jenkins using plugins like :-
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Simple+Theme+Plugin
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/jQuery+Plugin
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/jQuery+UI+Plugin
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/JSWidgets+Plugin
The plugin page is providing very little information on how to use these and the benefits and the extend to which the UI can be changed.
Any doc or link is appreciated.
Assuming you don't want to write a Jenkins plugin, for adding pages, the best suggestion I can make is to use an HTTP proxy such as NginX, and configure it so that the pages you want to add are plain html files, and Jenkins is proxied for the rest of them. To a visitor, they will look like they are all part of the same site; you could copy code from the head and body sections of Jenkins-served pages to include some of the navigation.
The Simple Theme Plugin, which you found, will let you do basic customization of the look and feel of Jenkins. I do that for my build server and proxy it using this configuration fragment for NginX. The relevant CSS is in this CSS file - toward the end, look for the // JENKINS CUSTOMIZATION comment.
We use the Simple theme plugin - pointed at a css file for the simple styling, and a JS file to fix a couple of DOM oddities (some of the tables in the new look and feel have mismatching column counts).
Those two files need only be hosted either a handy http server, or you can place them in usercontent.
You need only refresh the page in the browser to see the changes. Both files can then happily reference other files served up too.
Handy things to note:
Jenkins has jquery, parts of YUI loaded and prototype loaded - so you can use them in your scripts.
If while debugging, the refresh gets in the way then use the console to enter the following to temporarily stop it without pausing JS: refreshPart = function() {}
When making DOM tree changes to content that is refreshed - attach it to the layout updates with:
layoutUpdatecallback.add(my_function) - that way your changes are applied to new incoming content.
Does anyone know how to customise the rendering of the MVC sitemap provider so my ul element has a specific css class?
Try MvcSiteMapProvider hosted on CodePlex. You should be able to fairly easily migrate your existing Sitemap file to the slightly different but essentially compatible format. This will give you the ability to output your sitemap using the simple Html.MvcSiteMap().SiteMap() helper method.
The source of the project includes the default templates which you can edit to produce any rendering you like...or just pass in the name of a template in accordance with MVC convention. The model types you'll be rendering are SiteMapHelperModel, SiteMapNodeModel and SiteMapNodeModelList (namespaces removed for terseness).
I appreciate this may not be exactly what you're after as it relies on a 3rd party tool but its a useful project that supports much more than just rendering sitemaps. You'll want version 3.0.0 for MVC3.

Which Template-Engine and Ajax-Framework/-Toolkit is able to load template information from JAR-Files?
If you mean server-side template engines, you can get Velocity to load its templates from the classpath (which includes JAR files). Check out the section "Configuring the Resource Loaders (template loaders)" in the Developer Guide.
Take a look at http://www.ztemplates.org which is simple and easy to learn. This one allows you to put all related templates, javascript and css into one jar and use it transparently. Means you even have not to care about declaring the needed javascript in your page when using a provided component, as the framework does it for you.
