[CLOSED] dynamic connection string
I have a dashboard that needs a dropdown added to it that allows a person to choose a connection they want and then dynamically refresh the page with that connection. So, I want to put a combo box into a banner.html page from a previously defined custom_worp page, and then execute a refresh to lauch the fex pages with the new value. Can this be done???

You can try creating your own html page with this drop down box and add it to a content block. You can also try customizing the banner.html located under ibi\WebFOCUS76\worp_html\viewname\ to add the drop down. Unfortunately there is no documentation to accomplish this for example:
In this example, I customized my General Public View to add a Contacts option.
This is calling an .html page I have set under the worp_html directory.

<SPAN CLASS="text">
< !--Links-->
< !--<IMG SRC="clear_space.gif" WIDTH="25" HEIGHT="15" BORDER="0">-->
<A HREF="/worp/worp_html/link/contacts.html" target=_blank>|Contacts </A>
..
</SPAN>
</TD></TR>
