RE: [WDSCI-L] FW: Exit problem webfacing

["Lam, Chris" <clam@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I work with Michiel on this problem and we found out that the cause of
the "closing browser" prompt was in the bean that was being used. It
starts to collect data from the launch screen -> logon -> application.
When you exit application it wants to go back to application -> launch
screen, but since we didn't start the session with the launch screen the
bean doesn't have all the info hence it calls a javascript to close the
browser.
As Michiel said we used an autosubmit form on the launch screen so it
automatically goes to the Logon with the correct session info.


P.S. If someone else has a better solution we'd appreciate it, because
we feel like this solution is like handling a symptom instead of really
curing the problem.
Greetings,

Chris

Thanks, for your reply

I've found another solution. I used an autosubmit on the Launchscreen,
so everytime you start up the application it gets send to the
logonscreen

The first thing I'll say is that I have not tried this so I don't know
if it will work or not...

WF will try to go back to the referrer page when the app ends, so maybe
what you want to do is set the referrer page to point to another
invocation of the app?  That is, when you launch an app and the uid/pwd
is not predefined then it will prompt for logon.  The problem that I
could imagine with pointing it back to the invocation of the app is that
it may time out (default is 30 mins I believe)  before someone goes to
actually log in again.

[WDSCI-L] Exit problem webfacing






Hi,

When I open a Webfacing appllication using WFInvocation.do?inv=INV1, I
get the logon window. When I logon and then try to exit the application,
the application tries to close the browser and I get the following
message popup 'the Web page you are viewing is trying to close the
window. Do you want to close the window? YES NO.

When I open the same application without using WFInvocation.do?inv=INV1,
I get the Launch button and then when I exit it returns to the Launch
button.

Is it possible that the application returns to the logonscreen when I
try to exit the application, without returning to the launch button?

Thanks,
Michiel
