We have implemented it using some scripts. What we did was an overlay with a button that calls a script. It reads the block name as a parameter, then looks for a file and copy it to a scrath file. Then we call netscape, but it doesn't make a web call, it read an html formatted file. ######################################################################## # CopyInfo.sh: Script to show ARO (operating risk analysis) of selected bloque # Parameter: $1 bloque to show ######################################################################## # Copy default html file "Temp.html" cp /rem/AW5101/opt/info/ARO/Falta.html /opt/info/Temp.html # Copy html file of selected block cp /rem/AW5101/opt/info/ARO/$1.html /opt/info/Temp.html ######################################################################### #Open file #Test to see if Netscape is running if (test -h /.netscape/lock) then /opt/netscape/netscape -remote "openURL(file:/opt/info/start.htm)" else /opt/netscape/netscape file:/opt/info/start.htm fi ######################################################################### start.htm make some formatting to disable all browsing capabilities an then call Temp.html <html> <head> <script language="javascript"> <!-- function WinOpen(){ window.open("file:/opt/info/Temp.html","test", "status=yes,hotkeys=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes"); timeoutID=setTimeout("WinClose()", 1000); } function WinClose(){ window.close(); } //--> </SCRIPT> </head> <body onLoad="WinOpen()"> </body> </html> Regards.
