Is there a way to populate a form in a web viewer with FM data?

Featured Replies

If I have a form open inside a web viewer in FM and I want to populate it with data from FM can this be done? Of course it's always the same form so I know what the form name and field names are. Is there some kind of way to interact with the web form similar to javascript where I can update the fields?:)

Any information on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

See if this topic helps Link

You can do it in reverse ... populating the fields via the webviewer Fusion Reactor Maybe of use.

That's good to know Stuart, I haven't had much to do with plugins until I started wanting Wev Viewer to start earning some of the money we paid for these upgrades.

I must say though that i will not use this method until i move on to 9 Advanced where the Web Viewer allows for parsing the html within filemaker in both OS X and Windows rather than being restricted by IEs URL length limit, making this a safe method to implement.
