[CASE-OPENED] Graph HOLD and PCHOLD output is different
Has anyone found this issue ?

If I HOLD the output, I get an APPLET in the HTML
If I PCHOLD the output, I get an embedded image and no APPLET in the HTML

The PCHOLD output is what we are after, but it will be combined with other things, so I can't use PCHOLD.

-SET &ECHO=ALL;

GRAPH FILE CAR
SUM DEALER_COST
BY MODEL
-*ON GRAPH HOLD AS TEST FORMAT HTML
ON GRAPH PCHOLD AS TEST FORMAT HTML
ON GRAPH SET LOOKGRAPH VBAR
ON GRAPH SET 3D OFF
ON GRAPH SET BARNUMB OFF
ON GRAPH SET GRID ON
ON GRAPH SET VZERO ON
ON GRAPH SET GRAPHEDIT SERVER
ON GRAPH SET GRAPHSTYLE *
setToolTipDisplay(true);
ENDSTYLE
ON GRAPH SET STYLE *
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=DEALER_COST, FOCEXEC=TEST, $
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN

! ls -al
! cat test.htm
-*! dir
-*! type test.htm

Hi Waz,
Why not use something like this :
 
GRAPH FILE CAR 
SUM RETAIL
BY DEALER
ON GRAPH HOLD AS TT FORMAT HTMTABLE
END
-RUN
-HTMLFORM BEGIN
<html>
<body>
!IBI.FIL.TT;
</body>
</html>
-HTMLFORM END

Hi Damien,

Tried HTMTABLE and the APPLET was produced.

I think this is a V8 issue

Thx
Good to know, as we planned to migrate to V8 beginning of next year. Think I'll have a lot of "good" surprise with this migration.

Whether you get a Applet ( flashplayer ) or image or HTML5 graph depends on the capabilities of the browser.

WF can decide that for you when using PCHOLD.
...but what about HOLD? It doesn't know what you're up to with the graph.


I use this:
GRAPH
...
ON GRAPH HOLD AS GRA FORMAT JSCHART
END

 
-HTMLFORM BEGIN
<HTML>
<BODY>
<DIV>!IBI.FIL.GRA;</DIV>
</BODY>
</HTML>
-HTMLFORM END


AND !!!!
Add this to the very top of the fex
-HTMLFORM BEGIN
< !DOCTYPE html>
-HTMLFORM END

Otherwise it still we fallback to compatibility mode ( thinking HTML5 isn't supported )


Try some.

We are trying to avoid JSCHART for iPads as we think the js is causing safari to crash.

We have several page with many charts and have used this technique for normal browsers and it works like a treat, but not for iPads.

And maybe some "not so good" surprises. We opened over 30 case during our migration a good number around the new security model. Most were resolved or a work-around was found, but some are still in programming.

We have/are doing similar, but a fair few are portal related.
