Instead of typing :
&PARAMETER_NAME

in the text box, type:
!IBI.AMP.PARAMETER_NAME;

Martin... Thanks again.

Now in runtime it shows as text:

!IBI.AMP.PARAMETER_NAME;

The value's parameter is on the html because the chart and the report shows the data relationated.

When you say
quote:
I have a html page from a hyperlink

what do you exactly mean by that ?
Does it show a report, a graph, a dashboard,...?

You could already add the &PARAMETER_NAME as in the report heading or graph title, no need to add a text box.

But from what I understood, you need to create another report that will take the parameter as input and only display its value.
Or define a control that will receive the parameter and display it, not a text box.

Also being more detailed and giving as much detail and code you can provide, the easier it could be for us to help.
But as I already mentioned you in another post, you may need some IBI training session.
Unfortunately, we are not here to train you.

However, it will be a pleasure to help debugging.

Did you check if the parameter value is declared and if value is set?

Martin,
Thanks for yours options... Finally i added the &PARAMETER_NAME in the graph title and it worked.

You are right, probably my issues are consequence of my lack of knowledge in the tool.

Thanks a lot for your help.
