[CLOSED] Pass parameter from fex to html, then to fex
This is my process. I have FEX1.fex file, in this fex file, I set value for parameter: &SITE. Then, I pass this parameter to HTML file which contains GRAPH by using inputhidden and set value to this control is '!IBI.AMP.SITE!'. This works perfect. Then I want to drill down GRAPH base on that parameter and another value in the graph to another fex file (FEX2.fex). In the drill down code, if I use:
FEX2.fex didn't recognize the value of SITE parameter and it returned me blank value for this parameter. Any suggestion for me in this case? Thanks in advance.This message has been edited. Last edited by: hainguyen,

SITE=&SITE
Can you set '!IBI.AMP.SITE!'as input to a hidden variable in the HTML file and submit to fex2 on click using a javascript?

Cyril: Can you give me your sample code? I don't really get your suggestion. Martin: I tried that and got the same result, the SITE value in FEX2 is still ' '.

You can add an hidden variable in html. I have not tested below code. You can write something similar.
<html>
<script language="Javascript">
function myfunc()
{
document.form.method='post';
document.form.action='location for fex2';
document.form.submit();
}
</script>
<form name=test>
<input type="hidden" name="site" value="IBI.AMP.SITE;">
<input type="hidden" name="IBIF_Ex" value="fex2">
</form>
<html>
In the fex file, call the above javascript,myfunc and pass any parameters as required to the javascript.

Thanks Cyril, I haven't tried your solution yet but I figured out how my code didn't work. In my HTML, I just need to set value for the inputhidden is: !IBI.AMP.SITE; , not '!IBI.AMP.SITE;' so the fex2 can read this parameter.
