external window in the portal

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a requirement of sending mails to a group of user selected in the worklist.

This is done on click of the button :send email.

In the action invoked on clisk of the button I am fetching the mailids of all the selected users in the worklist and building the url : (mailto:<user emailid>;.....)

Now in order to send the mail I am using the method CREATE_EXTERNAL_WINDOW of the class IF_WD_WINDOW_MANAGER.

The webdynpro application is working fine when standalone, but on executing it in the portal I get the exception that external windows cannot be opened in the portal.

If someone cud help me in this - this functionality is an important requirement for us.

Regards,

Rahul

Did you try the using the LinkToUrl UI element?

It should work as required by you opening an external window...

Let us know...

I can use the Linktourl but the ui presented to the user won't look proper( first get a popup asking confimration of the mail to be sent to all the users and then the user has to click the url), hence looking for a way in which I cud open a window in the action handler.

best open a support ticket.

Too hard for us to assist with such portal issues and no details, sorry.
