Hi.

 

Try this one:

Or do you mean something like this? The first one adds a value from the URL to the link, this one adds a value to the link from the input box:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xp:view xmlns:xp="http://www.ibm.com/xsp/core">

    <xp:div id="linkUpdate">
        <xp:link escape="true" text="Search" id="Search"
            styleClass="but_search" target="MainFrame">
            <xp:this.value><![CDATA[#{javascript:var urlParam = "";
try{
    urlParam = getComponent("inputText1").getValue();
}catch(e){}

"/xp_GlobalSearch.xsp?search=" + urlParam;}]]></xp:this.value>
        </xp:link>
       
   
    <xp:br></xp:br>

    <xp:inputText id="inputText1"></xp:inputText>
    <xp:button value="Label" id="button1">
        <xp:eventHandler event="onclick" submit="true"
            refreshMode="partial" refreshId="linkUpdate">
        </xp:eventHandler></xp:button>
       
    </xp:div>   
</xp:view>

 Hi Sven,

 

 Thanks for your input. I had tried getComponent("fieldname").getValue(), but I dont know for some reason it was just returning me null every time.  I finally did it using client side javascript as below:

 

<xp:link escape="true" text="Search" id="lkSearch" title="Search" styleClass="but_search">

<xp:eventHandler event="onclick" submit="false">

<xp:this.script><![CDATA[

document.getElementById("MainFrame").src = "/database.nsf/xp_GlobalSearch.xsp?search=" + document.getElementById("#{id:searchInput}").value]]></xp:this.script>

</xp:eventHandler>

</xp:link>

 

Thanks for your help. 

 

Regards, 

Yusuf
