I have a set of text boxes that I would like to use repeatedly through a web page. How can I group them so I can copy, paste, and move them as one unit, rather than as individual text boxes. Or this a limitation/bug in 7.6.10?

Thank you

Hi John,

Suggestion from our technicals:

Create a fex with all the amperVariable for each control.
Insert the report into an HTML page and all the controls will be created and all the references will be created on the form.

Then if you use the same names for the amperVariables in other focexecs, you can copy the HTM page and change the fex that will be executed and the controls will then pass the values to the focexec.

There will be a New Feature in WebFOCUS 8xxx that will allow you to build a control (dropdown listbox) that will allow the user to dynamically change the focexec to be executed dynamically.

Better not to copy and paste with the HTML Composer pages.


Cheers,

Kerry
