[SOLVED] DRILLMENUITEM behavior inconsistent

I have created a HTML splash page showing Work Orders which were opened in the
last 30 days. There are two kinds here, CUSTOMER WORK ORDERS and just WORK ORDERS.

quote:

OPEN WORK ORDER FOR LAST <= 30 DAYS
CUSTOMER ORDERS AND WORK ORDERS
DATE: November 29, 2012

OPEN CUSTOMER ORDERS


WDC WORKDESC # of
Orders
224 TURN ON 6
209 INSPECT FOR VALVE LEAK 4
223 TURN OFF FOR REPAIRS 2
041 AIR IN LINE 1
108 INSPECT FOR SEWER LEAK 1
405 REPLACE METER COVER 1

OPEN WORK ORDERS


WDC WORKDESC # of
Orders
303 CURB STOP INOPERABLE 4
258 LOCATE/ADJUST VALVE BOX 3
200 SHUT DOWN/CHARGE WTR MAIN 2
406 REPLACE METER F&C 2
017 MISC WATER MAINT 1
058 REINSPECT FOR SERVICE LEAK 1
293 REPAIR FH LEAD VALVE LEAK 1
425 VALVE WORK ON LARGE METER-01 1



By clicking on the '223' value the user can create a detail report for all '223'
work orders.


These drill links are code w/ DRILLMENUITEM and I have coded the hover text to be:
'OPEN WORK ORDERS' for a detail open work order report, and 'OPEN CUSTOMER ORDERS'
for a detail customer work order report.

However, when I scroll the mouse over the links the hover text 'OPEN WORK ORDERS',
displays for records in OPEN CUSTOMER ORDERS as it does for those OPEN WORK ORDERS.
In addition, clicking on a WDC in either section will run the same focexec.

I can get this to work for the ALT tag, but I like the 'dressed up' hover cloud you
get from the DRILLMENUITEM tag.

Has anyone had this problem?

Here is my code:

-SET &ECHO = ALL;

SET HOLDLIST = PRINTONLY, ASNAMES = ON
-SET &XAGE = 30;

DEFINE FILE MMDB1

END

'Open Work Orders - RPT01'

It is because you are using two html outputs each with a drillitem coded.

When you code a drillitem, a pice of javascript gets embeded within your output, to control the drill menu. Within a report the counting of the drill menu item will always begin at the beginning (naturally) and therefore ecah of your outputs will have the same javascript reference. Your output is only refering to the latter of the two javscript sections.

You'll either need to consolodate your output into one html (I know that you've tried this and it causes other problems) or grow your own code.

Good luck

As we know DRILLMENUITEM only works with HTML format. So this issue is another reason it is
perhaps better to use ALT=. A plus is that you can also use ALT if you're planning to move
along to pdf and graphs.

Thanks Tony.

I would be inclined to change the links to JAVASCRIPT and then HOLD the two tables as HTMTABLE, bringing them together in an HTMLFORM with included JavaScript function. You could also then place them side by side without too much effort.

If you include JQuery then the control of the javascript call becomes easier and you could use a <div> to hold the hover text.
