understanding tt_data event

Renata

has anyone encountered having to "modify" hte tt_data event?
Before tt triggeres a workflow it asks the user "do you want to submit ..." and if the user selects cancel the workflow does not get started. How could this step (the dialog box) be ommitted?

thank you in advance

As per my understanding of Workflow with Templating, it can not be omitted. However, if there is a way someone on this thread would be able to guide.

I thought of sharing a not so well structured way that I used for a specific task in one of my Template. In my case, user had to always generate an HTML using the tpl I provided. So, within tpl, once everytask is completed, I made use of <iw_perl> tag. Within this I gathered the code to open a browser with my custom workflow by calling the iwwft_instantiator.cgi. This CGI expected query string of various paramters such as iw_branch, iw_user, iw_workarea, iw_file, iw_session, iw_template_file, iw_template_name etc. You would be able to fetch the entire list of paramters required by doing a view source for form on to-do list. This was a crude way, but it worked for one of my specific templates for a test server. So please make sure by testing how it might affect the server.

I am also assuming that you could use iwjobc over here for instantiating a workflow.

Hope this helps!
