QUESTION POSED ON: 12 May 2004
Are there any recommended ways to pass runtime/dynamic parms to either
the initial display of a WebFaced applications or to the program itself?
We are working with iSeries WDSC 5.1 to WebFace some simple inquiry
applications. We do not have the portal product, but still want some
simple integration between our existing Web-based PC application and
the WebFaced inquiries. For example, one inquiry has two
screens only; a prompt for a product ID, and a subfile screen to display the results. In test, I tried setting the initial value of the prompt field to:
<%= request.getParameter("prodname") %> and extending the URL request (e.g.):
http://localhost:7080/ATSINQUIRY/WFLogon?inv=INV1&turnCacheOff=1083593749814?prodname=L9999999
This just stuck "null" into the product field on the prompt screen (as though it tried to get the parm, but it wasn't available.) Also, I
didn't see any way to change the CL command on the fly either.
