[SOLVED] WF 8 - Temporary Parking Space with Web Address Available?

Can I store the results of a GRAPH FILE request, in a temporary space, and have that temporary space be available from the browser?

In the request below, two WF 8 HTML5 graphs are created, and then stored within the BASEAPP application via APP HOLD BASEAPP.

The two graphs are then presented in the browser window via iframe tags.

I’d prefer to store the graphs in a user/task specific temporary space, so I would not need to perform cleanup, as well as, to not have to provide unique file names.

Any/all suggestions welcome.

I have no experience with that ( just haven't tried it yet, but could prove useful in the near future ).

Try looking for : "foccache" in this forum.

It's a 'folder' which is created exactly for this ( internal ) purpose.

e.g. read this post
http://forums.informationbuild...077030036#7077030036

Thank you for the link to the foccache post, Dave.

foccache does sound like what I need.

I've updated that post, asking if a solution for WF 8 had been found yet.

That post has received over 1,000 views, so I am sure others are interested. :-)

Thanks again.

Search the forum on EDAGET. There are examples already posted on how to make WFS content web addressable.

Upon further review, I realized I needed to change my approach, to get the results I was looking for, while increasing scalability and maintainability.

First of all, each of the GRAPH FILEs are now stored in individual focexecs.

For example: 
-* File Graph01.fex
-******************************************************************************
-* Graph 1 - Car Cost Report
-******************************************************************************
-DEFAULTH &RC = 'RC', &DC = 'DC'
GRAPH FILE CAR
SUM &RC
    &DC
BY  COUNTRY
ON GRAPH PCHOLD FORMAT JSCHART
ON GRAPH SET LOOKGRAPH VBAR
ON GRAPH SET AUTOFIT ON
ON GRAPH SET GRAPHSTYLE *
setTitleString("Car Cost Report");
setSubtitleString("By Country");
setO1TitleString("Cost Type");
ENDSTYLE
ON GRAPH SET STYLE *
*GRAPH_JS
mouseOverIndicator: {enabled: true, color:'yellow'},
riserBevel: 'cylinder',
riserShadow: true,
introAnimation: {
  enabled: true,
  duration: 1400
  },
*END
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN

The presentation fex calls the HTML5 graphs: 
-******************************************************************************
-* Setup Environment/Variables.
-******************************************************************************
-SET &RANDOM = RDUNIF(D5) * RDUNIF(D5) * 10000;
-SET &SRC_GRAPH1   = '/ibi_apps/WFServlet?IBIF_ex=Graph01.fex'
-                   | '&' | 'IBIAPP_app=summit2014'
-                   | '&' | 'RND=' | &RANDOM;
-SET &SRC_GRAPH2   = '/ibi_apps/WFServlet?IBIF_ex=Graph02.fex'
-                   | '&' | 'IBIAPP_app=summit2014'
-                   | '&' | 'RND=' | &RANDOM;
-SET &SRC_GRAPH3  = '/ibi_apps/WFServlet?IBIF_ex=Graph03.fex'
-                   | '&' | 'IBIAPP_app=summit2014'

-SET &SRC_GRAPH4  = '/ibi_apps/WFServlet?IBIF_ex=Graph04.fex'

   </div>
   <div class="grid-m3"></div>
  </div>
  </BODY>
</HTML>
-HTMLFORM END

With this approach, I obtain the nice layout I was looking for; and no longer need to store the graphs in an application, or elsewhere on the server.

Sure is great seeing the HTML5 graphs resize, when the window size changes!
