Posted on by Community Member

Hi all -

I have an IFRAME on the Opportunity form. The frame shows a custom ASP.NET web form. I need to pass the name of the Opportunity record to one of the text boxes on the web form.

Is this possible?

Thanks.

Hi Rich,

would this work? You can do it in the onload of the opportunity form:

community.dynamics.com/.../209503

Or you can use "Pass record object-type code and unique identifier as parameters" checkbox when setting up an iframe, but, then, you'll have to go back to CRM from your ASP.NET web form and read the name of that opportunity (since you'll only have the ID):

Hi Rich,

This is one solution:

In your ASP.NET Web Form, add a JavaScript function that executes on load.

Inside that function have the following code:

var opporunityName = parent.Xrm.Page.getAttribute("your_attribute_name").getValue();

Then you can use the above variable according to your business requirements.

Hope this helps,

Charmis

Hi Rich

I don't think tou can pass the name directly, as a parameter. But you could use the "Pass record object-type code and uniqeu identifier as parameters" options on the IFRAME. Then on your custom web form, you could query crm for the relevant informations.

Thank you for the direction. In the end I solved this by added this to my aspx.cs Page_Load:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

string name = Request["name"];

txtBoxName.Text = name;

}

I then used an onLoad JS function in CRM on the opportunity entity to update the IFRAME URL to include ?name="record name":

function change()

{

var name = Xrm.Page.getAttribute("name").getValue();

Xrm.Page.ui.controls.get("IFRAME_test").setSrc("http://localhost:64616/Pages/main.aspx?name" + name);

}

Thanks all who replied.

Hi!

1) You need to get a Opportunity name on a Opportunity form by scripts. It's easy to make. This is a standart fuction and standart field on the form.

2) Substitute application url into Iframe also with script and pass the get parameter there.

3) The application takes this get parameter with url ans fills the field during the loading or another necessary event.
