By the way, shouldn't this thread be on the easy400.net forum rather than the WEB400 forum?

Hi Kevin,
Thanks, I've managed to call another program based on the user selection.
The problem now is that the screen is appended to the current displayed
screen. Is there anyway to force a new window through RPG like
'window.open ('spmw005h.html')' in Javascript or 'target="_blank" ' in
HTML ??
Thanks & best regards
Ewart

Re: [WEB400] Library list in CGIDEV2
Yes, just call the relevant program as you would in any other application.
CGISRVPGM2 is a service program in its own activation group so you can
share it across multiple programs being called in any single request. You
don't have to have one CGI program only called per request - you can build
up the response with calls to any number of programs responsible for
different parts of the response - the only rule is that you clear the
buffer once at the start of the request and you send it to stdout
(wrtsection('*fini')) once at the end of the request. In your case you
want to have one program per application, but you might end up with some
very big and unwieldy programs, so consider breaking it up a bit. You can
make it as modular as you like, down to the point that you may have
individual programs or service program procedures responsible for creating
textboxes, or dropdown boxes etc.
One of the things that people do commonly is have one HTML template per
CGI program in the same way that you might have one display file per
ordinary green screen application. In my opinion (and it is only my
opinion) that is not a great idea. It results in lots of duplication and
makes it difficult to apply a standard look and feel (unless you are the
only developer).

Hello Kevin,
Sorry I mean 'Javascript' in the HTML source & not 'Java'.
I plan to have one 'start' program as the central program (partly pasted
below) & one program for each application eg: WIP:SPMW005, Pending
Orders:SPMW010.... So depending on the user's choice the library list will
be set (as pasted below) & the respective program should be called for
which I'm not sure if the normal 'call' / 'callp' will work which I
thought would be simple.
From what I have seen a CGI program is initiated from the URL in the
browser or through HTML events.
I've pasted the screens with what I have so far, hope it comes through in
the mail.
Thanks for the reply & best regards
Ewart

What do you mean by "branching out" and why would java be required?
I must be missing something. I would have thought you would just call the
program that you want to call, and that program (or whatever it calls)
will take responsibility for building the response.

Hi Guys,
I continuation with my quest to have the user branch to the respective
application after selecting the database. My next problem is how do I
branch out ???
I have the division & the application as in the link below:
http://...:1097/spmwebp/spmstart.pgm?div=F&appl=outstg
My question now is do I need to make the branching out in the HTML
file(using Java ?) or can it be done through the RPG program eg:
wdiv = zhbgetvarupper('div');
wappl = zhbgetvarupper('appl');
select;
when wdiv = 'F';
wcmd='CHGLIBL LIBL(QTEMP QGPL SOPDTAF SPMLOCF SPMDTAF)' +
' CURLIB(SPMDTAF)';
callp(e) qcmdexc(wcmd:%len(%trim(wcmd)));
>>>>>>> here is where I want to branch to the respective application
calling another RPG program, can it be done? if so, how ??
other;
endsl;
My apologies if this is a stupid newbie question.
Thanks & best regards
Ewart

Re: [WEB400] Library list in CGIDEV2
hello Ewart,
I've done this using the usropn function in RPG but I plan to use SQL.
So
I feel it would be easier to use the CHGLIBL command to set the library
list before using any SQL command. The problem is how ??
To use the CHGLIBL command, just do:
CHGLIBL LIBL(LIB1 LIB2 LIB3 .. etc)
Is that really what you're asking? Or are you asking us where to store
the library lists for each database environment? Or...?
After the login screen I plan to have another screen where the various
product areas are listed (using Radio buttons)& the various
applications
are listed (in the form of links / Radio buttons, which is better ??).
The
user will then have to select any one product area& an application to
proceed. Is this a good way of doing it ??
I would use radio buttons if you want the "product area" and
"application" to be submitted together. A link would be more appropriate
if you want to go to the application without submitting anything else on
the page long with it.
(At least... that's what a user would expect.)
It seems like an okay method to me -- but it's really hard to say
whether it's a good design without being familiar with the application.
What's important here is that it's easy for the user to understand,
use, and not cumbersome to repeat (if repetition is necessary.)
