-EXIT When I run the focexec, -SETting format to 'AHTML', the report renders fine, and the drill down link to the JavaScript function works AOK. When I run the focexec, -SETting the format to 'HTML', the report renders fine, and the drill down link creates a JavaScript 'Object Expected' error. When viewing the HTML report, if I click the 'All Pages' button, the drill down works. When I return to the Web Viewer, by clicking the 'back space' button, the links again stop working, yielding the JS 'Object Expected' error.This message has been edited. Last edited by: David Briars,

Hi, Since webviewer divides the HTML into multiple pages each page needs to have the Javascript embedded into it or have a reference to the js file.... here is one way of doing it. APP PREPENDPATH IBISAMP -*-SET &FMT = 'AHTML'; -SET &FMT = 'HTML'; -* -* Create report. -* DEFINE FILE GGSALES JS1/A100 ='<script type="text/javascript" src="http://localhost:8080/approot/baseapp/js1.js"></script>' ; END TABLE FILE GGSALES PRINT SEQ_NO HEADING "<JS1" ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT &FMT ON TABLE SET WEBVIEWER ON ON TABLE SET WEBVIEWTARG _parent ON TABLE SET CACHELINES 200 ON TABLE SET STYLE * TYPE = DATA, COLUMN=SEQ_NO, JAVASCRIPT=dodrilldown(SEQ_NO), COLOR=BLUE, $ ENDSTYLE END -RUN -EXIT this way each page will have a pointer to the JS file in the baseapp .. thanks Sashanka WF 7.7.03/Windows/HTML,PDF,EXL POC/local Dev Studio 7.7.03 & 7.6.11 | |||

Thank you for the information and technique, Sashanka. I can see were your technique would be valuable to others in a situation similar to mine. Unfortunately, in my case, I really do need the -HTMLFORM code that surrounds the report itself. In my actual case, that the fex in my first entry models, the JavaScript function called submits a Hidden Run Form. Both the JavaScript function and the hidden run form are stored within the -HTMLFORM code.This message has been edited. Last edited by: David Briars, | |||

I've performed a 'view source' on the code behind the HTML Format/Webviewer scenario, and do not see any of my HTML and JavaScript code, from within the -HTMLFORM. It is 'as if' WebFOCUS is doing a 'PCHOLD' instead of a HOLD, under the HTML/Webviewer combination. PCHOLD in the sense that the HOLD file is created, and then it is transferred to the browser. I want the HOLD file created, without the 'automatic transfer', because I am inserting the report within a -HTMLFORM, via the !IBI.FIL command, in the next step of the fex.This message has been edited.

David, perhaps holding the report in either HTMTABLE format for HTML, or AHTMLTAB for AHTML may simplify your including them in the -HTMLFORM section as the resulting HTML will be more "compliant". Otherwise, you will end up with an <HTML> tag inside of another one which is not really a valid document (no matter how forgiving Internet Explorer is) and may make the Javascript functions a bit crazy when parsing the DOM.

njsden, Thank you for your reply. I had tried HTMTABLE, and received the same JavaScript error. Apologies for not stating that in my original post. Dave | |||

Strange ... upon clicking View Source only <TABLE> ..... </TABLE> are shown, as if the web viewer took controlof the rest of the HTML document ... more playing is needed.

Hmmm, that definitely seems to be the case ... no other content in the HTML document gets rendered as soon as the HOLD file containing the web viewer piece is added. Though this does not help, at least it explains why your JavaScript is failing ... it just does not seem to be there anymore similar to the rest of the HTML document.

Taking the WEB VIEWER settings makes the document behave as expected ... Prod/Dev: WF Server 8008/Win 2008 - WF Client 8008/Win 2008 - Dev. Studio: 8008/Windows 7 - DBMS: Oracle 11g Rel 2 Test: Dev. Studio 8008 /Windows 7 (Local) Output:HTML, EXL2K. | |||

By analyzing the content of the HTMTABLE file itself, I see this:
<!--PAGING HTM-->
<!--VIEWERTARG "_parent"-->
<!--WEBVIEWHELP "ON"-->
<!--WEBVIEWALLPG "ON"-->
<!--VIEWERMULT "OFF"-->
<!--WEBALLOFF "OFF"-->
<TABLE BORDER CELLPADDING=1>
<TR>
<TD>
<TABLE CELLPADDING=0 WIDTH="100%"><TR>
<TD>
PAGE 1</TD></TR></TABLE></TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD ALIGN=RIGHT VALIGN=BOTTOM>
Sequence#</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD ALIGN=RIGHT>
<A HREF="javascript:dodrilldown('1');"><FONT COLOR="#0000FF">1</FONT></A>
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD ALIGN=RIGHT>
<A HREF="javascript:dodrilldown('2');"><FONT COLOR="#0000FF">2</FONT></A>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
<!--PAGEND-->
However, once added into the -HTMLFORM statement along with the other pieces, Internet Explorer's "View source" only shows this:
<TABLE BORDER CELLPADDING=1>
<TR>
<TD>
<TABLE CELLPADDING=0 WIDTH="100%"><TR>
<TD>
PAGE 1</TD></TR></TABLE></TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD ALIGN=RIGHT VALIGN=BOTTOM>
Sequence#</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD ALIGN=RIGHT>
<A HREF="javascript:dodrilldown('1');"><FONT COLOR="#0000FF">1</FONT></A>
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD ALIGN=RIGHT>
<A HREF="javascript:dodrilldown('2');"><FONT COLOR="#0000FF">2</FONT></A>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
Plus a set of controls at the bottom of the page. So, the parsing WebFOCUS must be doing on those "special" lines (<!--PAGING HTM-->,<!--VIEWERTARG "_parent"-->, etc. ) is creating some content in the HTML output that not only adds the "paging controls" at the bottom of the browser but also seems to take precedence or blow completely any other existing content not embedded between <!--PAGING HTM--> and <!--PAGEND-->. This may be a harder one to hack  Prod/Dev: WF Server 8008/Win 2008 - WF Client 8008/Win 2008 - Dev. Studio: 8008/Windows 7 - DBMS: Oracle 11g Rel 2 Test: Dev.

hi, WF default WEBVIEWER will send out one HTML page at a time to the browser from the web server....only way to control this is to play around with the system vcpxxx.htm files in WF installation directory or create your own paging feature on the report ... I am not sure of what your run form requires to accomplish but I tried my hand at coming up with something to start off with... I know it is a very crude way of doing things.

it submitted the form alright .. thanks Sashanka WF 7.7.03/Windows/HTML,PDF,EXL POC/local Dev Studio 7.7.03 & 7.6.11 | |||

njsden - Thank you for examining this issue. Yes, it is as if my -HTMLFORM html/JavaScript code is removed upon rendering with the viewer, and then 'restored' upon clicking the viewer 'All Pages' icon. All - I have opened a case with IB on this issue. | |||

I guess not for a true hacker  Thanks Sashanka for the example. I'll try to find some time to play with it and see what you propose. Prod/Dev: WF Server 8008/Win 2008 - WF Client 8008/Win 2008 - Dev.
