Should be the same method. But do you need to log into WebFOCUS to run it

Try This:

TABLE FILE (FILENAME) PRINT SUM Whatever

ON TABLE HOLD AS MyReport FORMAT HTMTABLE

(Insert SS Here)

END

-RUN

HTMLFORM BEGIN

-* HTML code to produce the final display)

!IBI.FIL.MyReport;

HTMLFORM END

I was just playing around with embedding a fex into a web page using iframe. I got this to work:

<iframe style="height:200px; width:400px; border:none" src="https://www.banbuck.mtu.edu/ibi_apps/run.bipBIP_REQUEST_TYPE=BIP_RUN&BIP_folder=IBFS://WFC/Repository/Public/embed_test&BIP_item=car_sales_by_country_pie_small.fex"></iframe>

 

But when I tried the same approach to embed an htm page created using AppStudio that runs the above fex, I get a pop up message stating that fex does not exist.

<iframe style="height:200px; width:400px; border:none" src="https://www.banbuck.mtu.edu/ibi_apps/run.bipBIP_REQUEST_TYPE=BIP_RUN&BIP_folder=IBFS://WFC/Repository/Public/embed_test&BIP_item=car_sales_by_country.htm"></iframe>

Is there a method similar to above that can be used to display an AppStudio generated htm page

[Todd Van Valkenburg]

Forgot to mention that this repo folder called Public has security set to Everyone. So, in my mind, should not require a login. I thought it would be the same method but I could not find documentation on BIP_REQUEST_TYPE to see if there are other functions or methods that I should be using with htm files.

[Warren Hinchliffe]

We have had many issues with public. We had to turn on anonymous and that caused no end of problems.

If you work out how to use it, please let me know.

It gives me a headache.

[Todd Van Valkenburg]

Playing around with this some more just now. What I did is create a new fex that includes the htm page that I built with AppStudio:

-HTMLFORM BEGIN

-INCLUDE IBFS:/WFC/Repository/Public/embed_test/car_sales_by_country.htm

-HTMLFORM END

 

Then in the external web page, I called this fex using the methodology posted in the first post. And this worked perfectly. Not sure of pro/con of going down this road but perhaps this is an option.

I think that is the best way to do it.

[Todd Van Valkenburg]

Chuck,

So running a individual fex and an html page works well from an external web page. Would you happen to know if there is an equivalent run.bip command for embedding a portal object

[Manoj Chaurasia]

I am sorry but I have not tried that
