How do I call the generate button's funtionality..

Amrita1

I want to call the generate button's funtionality from within the callout of a submit button(customized).
I have a tpl file, which works fine with the generate button, but not when I try to customize with my button..
Can you please give some idea how I do it..?


IWEventRegistry.addItemHandler("/content/content_name/submit","onCallout", my_function);


function my_function() {
contentIdName1 = IWDatacapture.getItem("/CATALOG/CONTENT_ID");
var genNameValue = ".../.../content/content_name/"+contentIdName.getOptions()[parseInt(contentIdName1.getValue())].value+".xml";
IWPageGeneration.setOutputFile(genNameValue);
IWPageGeneration.setPresentationTemplate("content_generatexml.tpl");

return true;
}



this works fine with the OnGenerate-addformhandler...


Thanks in advance.

Generate button basically makes a server call to iwgen. Same way if you did like your button to work the same way, call server for iwgen together with required parameters for iwgen. Read about iwgen in the admin\ tst guide
