Re: Pop up a .jsp file from a CL or a RPG program. -- WEB400

If clicking a link on a 5250 screen works, then just embed the URL in ascreen. To get an idea of how this works, to can just typehttp://www.google.com on a command line in the Mochasoft 5250 clienteven without embedding it in a screen (pagedown will highlight it thenclick on it). That doesn't seem to work in iSeries Access but then, Idon't use iSeries Access very often.

However, in Mochasoft/iSeries Access/tn5250j clients they ALL willrecognize an http:// as the start of a URL and will allow you to click.If you are an iSeries Access user, there may be someone on this listthat can tell you how to set that up.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions. Yeah, something along the lines of calling
.dspf file with http://www.domain.com/updatepage.jsp in it and the user
could click on the link and the updatepage.jsp would pop up and let the user
use the .jsp page and once the user closes the .jsp page the control needs
to come back to the display file. Is that possible? I am still new to RPG so
just wanted to know what is the best approach before venturing into such a
thing. Also, I never used STRPCCMD does this do the same thing too?

cheers,
Jake.

Do you mean, from a 5250 session?  You could bring up a 5250 screen that
has the URL and the user could click on that.  I don't know how to get
anything to "pop up" unless a user clicks a button or a link.

I am not familiar with how the annoying "pop ups" occur in a browser,
perhaps a mouseover event with some javascript.  However, I don't know
how you would accomplish that with something triggered from the server
without user interaction of some sort.

Hello All;
I have a .jsp page which updates a few fields in a file on my iSeries.

Is

there a way to make that .jsp page pop up when I call a CL program or a

RPG

program? I would really appreciate it if somebody could point me in the
right direction.

Thanks in advance,

cheers.

Jake.
