Update: I rebuilt the HTML files, and the customized error message works fine now for whatever reason.

Aug. 18
As an extra piece of information, I found this post http://forums.informationbuild...1057331/m/6097085226 called Auto execute when value changed in dropdown. It is exactly what David Glick taught me at Summit. I just need to get that custom error message to work with it.

Does anyone have any ideas?


I have an html file of four pie graphs. The HTML file has three filters: Year, Region, Store. All three filters are chained together on the parameters tab.

The four pie graphs are stored in separate fexes.

Three of the four pie graphs cover the same time span (2010-2015). One pie graph covers a later period (2012-2015).

Here's my question: At Summit, I asked the Expert Center to make my pie graphs operate dynamically within my HTML. They showed me how to go to the thumbnails tab of the HTML file and drag all pie graphs onto the parameters tab from the thumbnails. They showed me how to bound them (the thumbnails of the graphs) to the last control (the store filter). So now if I select JC's in the West region for a particular year, all of the graphs update automatically without using a submit button. All works great except the custom error message no longer shows up in the frame for that graph when there is no data. Now I just get blank white space.
Below is the code for the pie graph covering the later period. The only difference between it and the other three fexes is the custom error message.

Perhaps I am overlooking the obvious solution. I have conducted some research on the forum, and I have not quite found a good solution. I'm still fairly new to WebFocus, having only used it within the past year. I have found some posts about empty reports and empty graphs. Most utilize a HOLD TABLE or a separate html file. I'm trying to keep this as streamlined as possible and easy for anyone to follow.
