Hi,

I have one html page and one fex. I am calling the fex inside frame on the html page. I would like to pass the parameter to the fex. When I pass the variable along with the request, it's not working.


<iframe id=iframe2 style="Z-INDEX: 14; LEFT: 0px; WIDTH: 520px; POSITION: absolute; TOP: 15px; HEIGHT: 185px"

tabIndex=14 name=iframe2 marginWidth=0 marginHeight=0 src="" frameBorder=no scrolling=yes autoExecute="True"

WIDTHOLD="498" HEIGHTOLD="185" request_list="0" persistentuniqueid="compUid_4">

ibif_ex="&LLOWRPTNAME" activereport="0" reportcolumns="" ibiapp_app="webportal">



Thanks

HTML and XML have no idea what an amper variable is
you'll have to use a script to resolve them before it will work

Found the solution. Added this code inside the rootxmlnode.

<variables>
<variable controltype="7" name="Z" parametercreatedinreslay="1" top="108" left="265" width="60" height="20" inbinding="1">
<link linktype="default">
<condition default="1" name="Default" whattodowithcontrol="4" valuescompareoperator="0" parameterscompareoperator="0"

conditionmultiselectoperator="0">
<data_info selectedvalue="&TOD">
<static_values>
<static value="&TOD" display="&TOD" selected="1"></static></static_values></data_info></condition></link>
<requestid id="0"></requestid>
</variable></variables>

Kamesh,

I'm curious to know how you are using this. In this example are you grabbing the time of day and then passing it to a procedure or are you doing something with it in the html page?

If passing it to a procedure, why not just populate it there?

If using it on the html page can you use the
!IBI.AMP.VARNAME; method?
