| HTML HREF to a dashboard tab? | Login/Join |
| Master |
We're just getting started with dashboard... Is it possible to create an HTML HREF on one tab of my dashboard that would navigate the user to a different tab on the dashboard? Thanks!

Nope. No way to navigate to a specific tab in the dashboard through an HREF/URL. There was a recent post regarding this topic . You access the dashboard and you get the default page (tab 1) Regards, Darin In FOCUS since 1991 WF Server: 7.7.04 on Linux and Z/OS, ReportCaster, Self-Service, MRE, Java, Flex Data: DB2/UDB, Adabas, SQL Server Output: HTML,PDF,EXL2K/07, PS, AHTML, Flex WF Client: 77 on Linux w/Tomcat | |||

Thank you for the reply Darin. I am aware of the post that you mention, and what we're trying to accomplish is a little bit different. Once the user is in dashboard, we can HREF them to www.google.com or any other website via a link posted on a dashboard report. What we would like to do is HREF them to another tab. When one hovers over a tab in the dashboard, it shows "javascrip:select('Page_3'); return false;" What we'd like to do is create an href that would pass the 'page_3' value through an href while already in dashboard.... I don't understand javascript so well, but if the webfocus programmer fellas do it when you click on a 'tab' then I'd think that an average joe user like myself may be able to as well. Sorry if this is all clear as mud. Prod: Single Windows 2008 Server running Webfocus 7.7.03 Reporting server Web server IIS6/Tomcat, AS400 DB2 database. | |||

Jason, You are right when you say that the hover shows: "javascript:select('Page_3'); return false;" You could create a html that calls the same javascript function from a link. You would need to include all of the relevant js files. If can not get the link to call the javascript function directly then create a html page that calls the function in the onload. Then you could just open that page. Fernando Prod WF 8.1.04, QA WF 8.2.03, Dev WF 8.2.03 | |||

I don't know for sure because I'm not an HTML/javascript guru, but I think the problem with Fernando's suggestion is that in the case of creating a link or HTML page that calls the function onload, you are calling it from the contents inside the window/frame in which case it's not going to know about the dashboard objects/tabs. The function needs to be called from the HTML page that actually contains the tab objects. Can anyone else verify this?
