calling iwpt_compile.ipl through FormAPI

pawlr

I'm trying to bypass the usual screens for people generating files, by calling iwpt_compile.ipl from a FormAPI onGenerate event.

I know from the manuals how to hijack the button using FormAPI but don't know how I can call "iwpt_compile" directly

If anyone has any insights I'd appreciate it greatly..
thx

You can use FormAPI to invoke some JavaScript that makes an HTTP call to some CGI/JSP/ASP/servlet/whatever on the server, which can invoke iwpt_compile.ipl to do whatever you want.

I'm not all that familiar with the FormAPI utility functions -- there may be something that simplifies making an HTTP call for you.

Hope this helps.
