Re: Execute a CLP from net.data menu step

["Don Cavaiani" <dcavaiani@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What's the trick to getting the html menu to re-display - after the
macro is called and the System i command is 'kicked' off?   Right now I
have to hit the browser "back" button to get back to the menu.

That's right, essentially.

Perhaps the only thing I can add is a little bit of terminology.
Browsers may "request" Net.Data macros.  Net.Data macros may "call"
native language programs.

Why make that distinction?  It may be helpful to note that Net.Data and
native language programs run in the same address space and communicate
via shared memory and parameters (calls), while browsers run on client
systems and communicate with Net.Data via inter-system "messages".

If that matters.  I guess it matters from a performance perspective, and
to the extent that the interfaces are a little different.
