[WB23] - Open a URL

Hi All

Having a Friday/blank moment - how do I open a URL in a new browser tab from my page code without using a control? or must I use a hyperlink control?

ShellExecute ("[www.windev.com"]

Hi Infos,

This doesn't work because:

1) I can only access the table columns in server code, not browser code. So only in server code can I know the URL associated with the row clicked on in the table.

2) ShellExecute() in server code would (in theory) execute on the server but is stopped by WebDev anyway.

Surely there is a way for the browser code to know the contents of the table row clicked on and then open a URL?

Infos,

So I solved this by not letting the user load the relevant URL by clicking the row in the table. Instead I added a button which has server code to load the URL contained in the row selected. It is more cumbersome because a user must now do 2 things; select a row and then click a button ... but it works so there's that.

Thanks

Use the looper instead of the table
