COGNOiSe.com - The IBM Cognos Community

Hey,
We are changing the look & feel of Cognos completely, and one of the requests is to design two new buttons for sending report mail and saving report output.

I searched across the web and dived deep into the javascripts of Cognos... the only outcome i reached is that i copied the HTML of the buttons inside the "Keep This Version" and pasted it inside an html item - it was an almost success, it was successful  only when i clicked the "keep this vesrion" and then went to the buttons i created and clicked on them. if i just loaded the page

Anyone knows how to do it?

Attached screenshots

Thanks!!!
Yoni

You have 10.2.1, yeah?

Put this at the top of the page, or with the rest of your embedded JS:
<script>
function emailPage()
{
   try   {window['oCV'+'_THIS_'].getRV().SendReport(false);}
   catch (err) {}
}
</script>


Now put this wherever you want the button to be:
<input type="button"
class="ToolbarButton"
onclick="emailPage()"
value="Email"
ACCESSKEY="e"
title="Keyboard shortcut: alt-e">


Paul,
You are the king of kings.

Thanks!!
Yoni

 don't do javascript, but it looks like you're trying to save a report by saving a page...doesn't feel like that should work to me

i trying to do that:
<button type="button" name="SAVE" id="SAVE777" class="SAVE" onmouseover="this.className = 'clsPromptButtonOver'" onmouseout="this.className = 'clsPromptButton'" onclick="window.oCV_THIS_.getRV().SaveReport('_THIS_')" style="">SAVE</button>

but getting the same error...

I trying to do this:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21433541

but getting same error...

OMG, sorry guys,

my variant with:
<button type="button" name="SAVE" id="SAVE777" class="SAVE" onmouseover="this.className = 'clsPromptButtonOver'" onmouseout="this.className = 'clsPromptButton'" onclick="window.oCV_THIS_.getRV().SaveReport(false)" style="">SAVE</button>

is work well!!

only from portal, BUT DONT WORK in report studio...

I've just split your code up a bit to make it a bit easier to read:

<button
type="button" name="SAVE"
id="SAVE777" class="SAVE"
onmouseover="this.className = 'clsPromptButtonOver'"
onmouseout="this.className = 'clsPromptButton'"
onclick="window.oCV_THIS_.getRV().SaveReport(false)"
style="">
SAVE
</button>

I think it makes sense that that code only takes effect once the report runs...the Report Studio is only building the structure of the report. The HTML (and the associated javascript) only gets executed once the report is run - at least that's the way I've always understood it.
