Open Lotus Notes Form via url

Former Member

Hello All,

my requirement is open form in Lotus Notes via url

String url = notes://"mailserver"/"mailfile"/"username".nsf/"form_name"?OpenForm;

IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createExternalWindow(url,"",false);

window.open();

url with begining http:// is correct, but the url with begining notes:// catches an exception.

Does anybody know if generally possible.

Serpil,

WD has some restrictions on protocols used witg CreateExternalWindow. http: / https: are supported, javascript:, notes: and other "unknown" to WD are not supported.

As far as I remember, it is possible to open Lotus form as HTML page with "http:" protocol (from Domino server), so try this option.

Hello Serpil,

you may use a concatinated HTTP URL instead and pass the NOTES:// URL to a HTML page as parameter in a WD iFrame.

So e.g. http://myserver.mydomain.mycorp/notesclient.htm?notes://mailserver/mailfile

<html><head><title>NotesClient Integration</title>

<script type="text/javascript">

function LaunchNotes() {

urlquery=location.href.split("?");

window.location.href=urlquery[1];

history.back();

}

</script>

</head>

<body onLoad="LaunchNotes()">

<h1>The Notes Desktop Client is launched...</h1>

</body></html>

Please pay attention to URL encoding in case you also want to perform notes actions such as "?OpenForm" or others.

Regards

Michael
