Open documents in a traditional Form rather than an XPage from a viewpanel

I posted a question on this Wiki and was hoping someone knew the answer: http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/ddwiki.nsf/dx/xpages-compute-urls-in-viewpanel.htm?opendocument&comments

I am trying to use an xpage viewpanel to launch standard forms (instead on an xpage). The view is rendering properly but I can’t quite get the javascript to launch the standard doc. I’ve followed Thomas’s instructions to the letter but it doesn’t appear that the JavaScript function getUniversalID() is actually getting anything, rather it looks as if it is just being returned as a string. If you go to the link above you will see my comments at the bottom. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

I believe you might have pasted the formula into the property field as static value.

Take a look to see if it has the “#” sign in front of it. If it does not, click on the diamond to the right and select computed value and paste it in there.

Hey…Hey…none of that!

Subject: sorry…

Sorry, I couldn’t help myself (ha ha).

One more issue, if you will. Thanks to your tip I’ve got the links working but now I need to set a target frame for those links (I want to set the target frame to ‘_top’ but I can’t seem to figure out where to do it. Any ideas?

Subject: I could not find a property for this

I thought if I used the source code view for a Link control I could find a way to set the target using the same properties, but I could not get anything to work.

Maybe an IBMer might offer some insight here.

Subject: I’ll post

I’ll try and post this as a main topic since it’s probably buried in this post. Thanks for your help on this. I like all the features that xpages offer but I’m trying to integrate the view portion as a quick win for current apps that doesn’t require building xpage forms too. Having a way to set the target is the very last step to making that happen as far as I can see.
