Embedded views on web

Ok, support for multiple embedded views in version 6, great, until one notices that only one can be treated as HTML, the rest have to be Java applets. Why in gods name cant HTML be used in several embedded views?

Depending on what you’re after and how many documents are in the views in question, you can also treat the views as JavaScript files, embedding them on $$ViewTemplate forms or pages set to “Treat contents as other – text/javascript”, and bring them in using tags. Using document.write() will take you where you want to go from there, and there is no limit to how many of these beauties you can import.

I know the ways around this so this post was not a help request to solve a problem, more a ban to Lotus for making version 6´s multiple embedded view pretty useless on web…

Subject: Use @DbColumn to simulate multiple embedded views

If you only need multiple embedded views for the web only, you can create a single column view in HTML format.

Then insert a computed text in the form and use @DBColumn as the formula.

Make sure you set the Computed Text field as Pass Thru HTML and it should show up in your browser exactly as you formatted it.

This method allows you to have as many embedded views as you want.
