Composer Hyperlinks External Fex
When creating hyperlinks for Push Buttons, HTML does not pass ampers to the fex.
For some buttons it passes, for other it does not pass ampers

Have a Launch page with all controls already created... xml fex populates control boxes.

Launch page has multiple Tabs/Sub Tabs / Reports
Total reports 49..
Report Fex have Default &Ampers (Amper names are the same as Parameter names in the Launch Page..)
It is working for most of the buttons (Submit) but for few it does not pass the ampers..

does nyone know what are the limitations.. ? or issues with creating hyperlinks using external fex..

Thanks in advance

You said they are submit buttons. Are they all submit buttons? (i.e. all part of forms) or are some of them regular push buttons. Are your frames using different methods or setup differently? Are they not setup correctly (I would assume so)?

EDIT: Sorry I meant forms, not frames

Thanks

I mean these are push buttons on the same form.. Frames are setup correctlty.. There are two hidden Text boxes setup, which send the values using java script, which Reports to run, when the button is pushed.. I was looking at the Parametres Tab and the Parameter that is bound to this text box (from text box to Parameter) has a Static Value of FOC_NONE, I tried to delete this and recreate, I was able to delete the text box from the form, but the Parameter that was bound to this control, is not getting deleted..

Can you or someone tell me how I can get rid of this parameter.. I click on "break all bindings" and still can not delete this parameter . My goal is to re-create these Text Box and Parameter with a space (no Static Value)

Thanks

Check for unresolved variables in your parm page (htm). Removing them is a bit tricky but doable. After which you can reestablish your hyperlinks associated with your buttons. Also: are all the variables -DEFAULT'd properly?
