Open a URL on GP Web Client from a Dexterity button

Posted on by 125

Hello.

I need to open a website from a button that I added to a form. I'm currently using the 'run application' function and it works great on the GP client but on the Web Client is does nothing. Is the 'run application' function not compatible with the Web Client? Is there another function I can use to make it work? 

Thanks.

    if you are using VBA then it will not work on Web client.  you need to use Dexterity code or VS code for this purpose.

    local string l_Url;

    l_Url = "http://google.com"

    run application "", l_Url;

    I just made it work. The URL that I was trying to open was not written correctly, so the function couldn't even recognize it was a URL. Rookie mistake.
