FileMaker, Internet explorer and active X

Featured Replies

I work with windows, Filemaker Pro 5.5 and Internet explorer 6.

I have a FileMaker solution where my client works with a call center and uses the solution we developed . This solution has a link to a webpage where there is a login and a password to enter and then enter the customers ID to be analysed and return if he has credit or not. We managed to have the link to the webpage, but we are not sure about how to automatically enter the login and password and then the customers ID number and get the result in our Filemaker solution. Does someone know how to use active X and DDE execute command.

Log in user manually or supply the name/password from URL bookmark as: www.url.com?user.pass and get that to FM via JavaScript.

That works.

Could you please explain in more details. I tried entering in a search URL as: www.url.com?user.pass and it didn't work. I did it manually just to try.

After I get that working how can I get that to FM via Javascript.

I apreciate your atention.

First you get the user.pass into JavaScript variables.

Then you post those variables to your login page, which will be not visible.

If user will not enter the user.pass you will go to the standard login pages.
