I have a customer web page that has several radio buttons to select various reports then a submit button at the bottom. It was coded manually and has a lot of things other than WebFOCUS so I can't read it into HTML composer. I have one drop down list that is coded with about 20 options that I would like to convert to a dynamic list. The data for the list is a simple mssql table.


What is the easiest way to do this?

Thanks.............src

1 - I'd re-create the HTML page using WebFOCUS.
2 - The options will be sent to a fex which will determine what options and reports were selected and RUN those reports accordingly.

Thanks,
Sayed

The easiest way would be to create a HOLD-File that contains the HTML-Code for the option list.

DEFINE FILE XXX
LINEX/A1000 = 'OPTION value="' || VAL || '">'| TEXT | 'OPTIONEND';
END
TABLE FILE XXX
PRINT LINEX
ON TABLE SAVE AS SXXX FORMAT ALPHA
END

-HTMLFORM xxx (for xxx.htm in domain)

In the HTML you can replace the options with
!IBI.FIL.SXXX;

regards
Markus
