Mandatory fields

SATCOM01User1_(Delete)_2801733

Hi I am creating custom pages for adding items. I need to make few of the fields in the page mandatory. Does Livelink provide an option of calling any method and check for mandatory fields. If it is a an attribute in form as we know, Livelink handles the mandatory fields, but the moment it is a custom view or page how do i ensure the mandatory check is done. Is there any way of using Livelink's existing functionality?thanks in advance for any help.

You canmodify the fPrototype feature of your WebNode object to specify that aparameter in the URL is mandatory. See the 0Setup method in your WebNode andalso see the CheckArgsUtil method in the LL request handler for documentationon the prototype.
