Re: RPG CGI?

Brad,

I didn't think of the hyperlink option, thanks. I've been playing around with it, the code looks like:

<a href="/cgi-bin/boitem.pgm?cdcust=1234567">1234567</a>

The boitem program kicks off, but the customer number doesn't seem to be passed. The QtmhRdStin API returns blanks. I suspect I'm missing something in order to receive the custom number in the boitem program.

Any thoughts?

Thanks for all the help.

Kelley

Shouldn't need JavaScript, just a hyperlink on the customer number. Have it
sent the customer number to another CGI program that displays the more
detailed information.

The link for the customer number would look something like this:

<a href="/cgi-bin/custdet?cust=1010111">1010111</a>

This will pass the customer number to the next program (in this case I
called it custdet) which you read in and use to display the detailed
information, just like you did for the first program.

If you're looking for more CGI information, I've writen a few books and
training manuals you can see at www.bvstools.com/erpg/
