JavaScript function to show parameters and their values

[borco]

Hello all,

I'm looking for a Cognos JavaScript function that return the report's parameters and their chosen values by the user.

Does anyone know such a function.

Thanks in advance,

If this is on the report page, there are built-in functions to display them - ParamNames(), ParamValue(), ParamDisplayValue().

If it is on the prompt page for validation or whatever, see the prompt API especially cognos.Prompt.getControls and cognos.Prompt.Control.getValues.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. This is a report page but I need something Generic because I can't know what parameters are being used.
This is a template report that other reports are using and each report has its own parameters.
Any ideas?

The only thing I can think of that might work is parsing out ParamNames() in conjunction with ParamValue() and ParamDisplayValue(). As I have not used ParamNames() I am sadly not much help, but that is where I would start.

If you get something working, I am sure the Cognoise community would love to see it.  ;)
