FormAPI and visualformat

anita123

Hi ,
I am using inline scripts to pull out values from a DCR and populate a new DCT in another workarea. my script pulls out values of textareas but am not able to pull out values of visualformat textareas.

This is the code of the DCR from which I am pulling out the values.
--------------------------------------
<item name="Content1">
<textarea rows="15" cols="64" external-editor="visualformat"/>
</item>
<item name="Content2">
<textarea rows="15" cols="64" wrap="virtual"/>
</item>
--------------------------------------

This is the code from DCT where I am calling the script
---------------------------------------------------
<container name="Content">
<inline command="c:/iw-home/iw-perl/bin/iwperl.exe d:/path/to/script.ipl"/>
</container>
--------------------------------------------------------------
Attached is the script.

Content1 value not pulled and so , shows blank in the DCT
Content2 value is pulled out and populated in the DCT

Any ideas....

ThanX

Have your inline script dump the data its collected to a temporary file (as well as sending it out on STDOUT for the DCT that called it) - look at what you're getting back from the calls you are making and see if that helps explain why it isn't working and suggest how to fix it.
