Re: Re: Different Approach

OK Diane, If I unserstand you correctly, you want to display a web page to a
user so they can input a year and term to print a report of some kind..Here
is the source that I come up with...

Statis HTML source displaying to text boxes.....year....term...The user will
enter the year and term.....When the user presses the submit button.....the
year and term are passses into DIANE2 program were you will then parm them
to a CL...
<html>
<head>
<title>Justin's CGI to CL Test Program
</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">
<form name="form1" method="post" action="/cgi-bin/diane2">
  <p> Enter Year
    <input type="text" name="year">
  </p>
  <p> Enter Term
    <input type="text" name="term">
    <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
    Pressing Submit will call the report cl program and print the report to
Diane's
    Printer</p>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Here is the RPG....
 0001.00  *Copy in common stuff
0002.00  /copy jcopysrc,hspecs
0002.00 /copy jcopysrc,hspecsbnd
0003.00  /copy jcopysrc,prototypeb
0004.00  /copy jcopysrc,usec
0005.00  /copy jcopysrc,variables3
0006.00  *
0007.00  *setup stand alone fields
0008.00 D year            S              4A
0009.00 D term            S              2A
0010.00  *
0011.00  *receive input from browser
0012.00  /copy jcopysrc,prolog3
0013.00  *
0014.00  *Setup debug
0015.00 C                   CallP     wrtjobdbg(*on)
0016.00 C                   CallP     SetNoDebug(*off)
0017.00  *
0018.00  *Read output skeleton html from IFS into memory
0019.00 C                   CallP     GetHtmlIfs('/rtekweb/cgihtmlsrc/+
0020.00 C                             diane2response.htm')
0021.00  *
0022.00  *Parse varibles from the input stream
0023.00 C                   Eval      year = zhbgetvar('year')
0024.00 C                   Eval      term = zhbgetvar('term')
0025.00  *
0026.00  *Call the report cl program
0027.00  *
0028.00 C*--->              CallB     'report'
0029.00 C*--->              Parm                    year
0030.00 C*--->              Parm                    term
0031.00  *
0032.00  *Write the Response HTMl to browser so user knows the report
printed
0033.00 C                   CallP     WrtSection('response')
0034.00 C                   CallP     WrtSection('*fini')
0035.00  *
0036.00  *End the program
0037.00 C                   Eval      *inlr = *on

Here is the resonse HTML source....this will let the user know the report
has been printed...stick this source in you IFS and make the approiate
changes to line 19 and 20 in the RPG source.

/$response
<html>
<head>
<title>Justin's Report Response Page</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000">
