Re: URL hotspots -- MIDRANGE-L

Another choice, if the field is not an input-capable field, would be to put a field there and just check to see if the cursor is in the field, and if it is, then launch the web page.

Something like what I did here:

A simple workaround is to create a one line html page with a short url
that redirects to the long url, for example, create an ifs file as
/www/rpglist.htm containing the following line -
<script>location.replace('http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v6r1m0/i
ndex.jsp?topic=/rzasd/sc09250802.htm')</script>

Then the hotspot can be
http://dev/www/rpglist.htm
instead of
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/iseries/v6r1m0/index.jsp?topic=/rzasd/sc09
250802.htm

Tried that. No difference as far as the hot spot is concerned.

This might work for you, however I haven't tested it. What happens if
you define the field as a CNTFLD?
Here is code I've used but I've never tested it as a hotspot:

I have a longish URL (> 75chars) that I'm displaying in a single
field on a green screen. My emulator (Mocha) highlights part of it as
a hotspot - up till ~ position 79 on the screen. Any way to get the
hotspot to include the whole url?
