A Unique Web Problem

Hi,

I have got a unique problem . We have a web page which has been developed by a web development team using html and other such technologies. When you submit the web page using the submit button, a document is created in Notes database. The notes code issued by the web developer is "var uri = “/websiteopen.nsf/IssuerInquiry!OpenForm&Seq=1”; ".

Once the user clicks the submit button the document is created in notes and a web page shows up which says the document is sent. The web developer are updating the value of $$Return field with url of the page which should be displayed after the page is submitted.

The owner of the application has reported that sometimes (in rare cases), when the page is submitted the document is not created in notes database, but the user is still shown the page which says document successfullly submitted.

So the question is , is there a way how the web developer can detect if the document has been saved . Where should the code for displaying a non successful page be put.

Thanks a lot for any help.

Regards

Javed Khan

My first suggestion is that your WebQuerySave (WQS) agent should be processing the submission and manipulating the data in the back-end. Writing the WQS in LotusScript will provide you a lot of flexibility in validating the submitted form and saving the resulting document(s) to be saved/processed.

Without overloading you with issues, I would ask, have you explicitly coded a WQS or is is simply doing an @Save (or something)?

Hi Doug,

Thanks for your response. I do not have anything returned on the web query save event. As said earlier, the page is designed by some web development team , who are not well versed in notes (Probably they no nothing in notes). One of our earlier developer had given them the url which i had earlier mentioned to save the form. That’s all that is there.
