Hello,
I’m trying to see if it is at all possible to call a servlet from the notes client? What I am ultimately trying to accomplish is having a user click a button from a document that kicks off a procedure in Oracle without having to install any jar files on the client’s machine and not use LC/LSX.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Kim

the simplest solution to your problem would be to write a java agent. You’ll need you JAR files to access Oracle, but you’ll have them imported in agent, so there will be no deployment nightmare. As for accessing servlet: as Vilhjalmur points out it’s also quite straightforward, but still plain Notes agent looks even simpler.

This should be very easy, just execute the URL. In the command language there is @URLOpen(). There is probably something simular in LotusScript. Here is how you do it from a Java agent, and also post data to the servlet.
Do a search in this forum, if this is not enough info.
