UpdateI couldn't get the 'dotty method' to work. I have no idea why—it seems straightforward enough. But the 'bookmark method' is working fine for what I need to do.
Is is possible to set a variable in the header section of the template (easily changed by editing the template) that could then be used in empty.html?
I no longer believe this is necessary. This is probably of no interest to anyone, but I have to express my happiness at being able to use the tools I already have to get a job done. The rather busy screenshot is meant to convey that after I export a report, I select it in
Directory Opus, click a button, and empty.html opens in my editor at the same time the report is opened in my browser. At this point, I change the report title and tag captions to whatever I want them to be, and add any necessary comments.
Since these are being launched from a website by users unfamiliar with the report or anything about PVD, I think I'll always want to fine-tune this to provide whatever explanation is necessary.
I do, of course, have another question. Can a button or link be added to return to
empty.html? I have a button in Firefox that goes back to the first page opened, but I doubt other do (or would think to use it). I know the following works in Firefox...
javascript:window.history.go(-(window.history.length%20-%201))
...but haven't a clue whether it does in all browsers, or how to add it if it does. If I'm going to use the page this way, I think my users are likely to want to go back to it.
