I am using FileMaker 9 and a web viewer to display a HTML page that displays data from the current record using the ol data URL technique.

My question is i want to add a link to the HTML that will run a script and was wondering if this was at all possible.

Example of the URL? I'm thinking 'no' but would play with it a little to see.....

Well to take an example.

In FileMaker 6 you would turn on Web Companion set the port number to something and then from a html page you can create the following hyperlink:

http://127.0.0.1:591/FMPro?-db=Contacts.fp5&-lay=web&-format=runscript.html&-error=errorpage.html&ContactID=252&-script=RunScript&-new

which would then go over to your open FileMaker 6 go to Contacts.fp5, create a new record, set the contactid field to 252 and then run the script RunScript.

So my question is, is there an equivalent in FileMaker 9?
