Set URL Parameter (to go with GetURLParameter)

#1 · January 2, 2019, 1:23 am

Recently, at my request, Luis added the GetURLParameter command to VisualNEOWeb; much appreciated.

Not a high priority, but it would be of great help if the developer could specify "a parameter string" that should be appended each time a Run in Web Browser is requested for the current Project.

Perhaps a Menu Item (say Set URL Parameter) under the Menu Header Project ? ... followed by a Dialog Box that allows text like ...

continent=Africa&Country=Kenya

Good idea!. I will try to add it on the next update.
Thanks!

Did this every get implemented?

If not how do you set URL parameters in VisualNeo Web when testing?

Hi @andy-marshman, no, it has not been implemented. You can do it manually.

Suppose this is your current app URL when testing:
file:///C:/path/myapp/index.html#!/NewPage

You can include your own parameters this way:
file:///C:/path/myapp/index.html#!/NewPage?param1=value1&param2=value2&param3=value3

Just press enter after manually writing the URL parameters to reload the app using them.

Regards.

Hi @luishp,

This just isn't working for me. I have the following on the page-enter event of the initial page.

GetURLParameter "param1" [param1]

ConsoleLog "param1: [param1]"

If [param1] == "123"
   SetVar [PageHeader] "Test Page 1"
   GotoPage "Apprentice"
EndIf
If [param1] == "456"
   SetVar [PageHeader] "Test Page 2"
   GotoPage "Graduate"
EndIf

Edit: It's ok it's working now I had to put the code in the startup of the app rather than the page-enter.

Regards

Andy
